In the next few days, the streets and alleys were discussing the matter of King Kang's forced palace, and regarded this as a topic after dinner.

The people in the capital are still in an extremely excited mood.

The servants of the Gu family were no exception. They criticized King Kang for being brave, praised the emperor for his wise and powerful, and were glad that Li Yun'an had already changed his surname to Li, and he was proud to praise his eldest son for his great contribution in this incident.

Gu Yuan has been following Chu Yi for the past few days until seven days later when he had time to return home. The whole house was in full swing and he wanted to set off firecrackers at the gate to celebrate.

The first thing Gu Yunzhen said when he saw Gu Yuan was:

"Brother, you... have grown taller!"

Gu Yunzhen looked at Gu Yuan up and down. It was obvious that he had not seen Gu Yuan for more than ten days, but the young man in front of her made her feel a strange sense of strangeness, strange and familiar.

Today, Gu Yuan wore a dark willow leaf pattern with a dark silk ribbon tied around his waist. He was tall and thin. His cold face was less sharp than the young man and more tenacity as a young man.

Compared to last year, Gu Yuan has indeed grown taller, but in fact, what Gu Yunzhen really wanted to say just now is that Gu Yuan looks more like Gu Ce, both in terms of appearance and temperament.

It's so good! Gu Yunzhen's eyes were slightly sore, and he felt a trance in his heart, as if he saw his dead uncle again.

"Brother has indeed grown taller!" Gu Yanfei nodded seriously, his eyes brightly.

Compared to Gu Yuan, who was not good at doing things in his previous life, Gu Yuan is so good now!

Gu Yanfei turned his head with a smile and asked Gu Yunzhen: "Sister, do you have to re-measure the size of your summer shirt?"

"That's right." Gu Yunzhen nodded and hurriedly ordered the maid to find the person from the sewing room to come and measure Gu Yuan's size.

"..." Gu Yuan actually felt that his robe could be worn half an inch long and half an inch short, but he closed his mouth very consciously.

When my mother was in charge of the housekeeping, her father never interrupted.

Gu Yuan thought of something, looked up and asked Gu Yunzhen with concern: "Sister Zhen, I heard that my third uncle was infected with the cold a few days ago. Is her body better?"

"It's okay," Gu Yunzhen said hurriedly, "My mother was not sleeping soundly the other night, so she felt a little cold. Yan Fei prescribed some medicine for her. I singed her incense again these two nights, and she was fine."

For Yan and Gu Yunzhen, the day when the forty-five death bells rang, they were nervous for a while.

Afterwards, Gu Yuan sent someone to escort Gu's mansion and let them stay in the mansion with peace of mind.

When the incident of King Kang forcing the palace in the imperial tomb in the afternoon came, everything had settled and the capital was under Gu Yuan's control.

For Gu Yunzhen, what happened that day actually had no sense of urgency or reality, just like a rainstorm suddenly hitting and ending suddenly...

The third wife, Yan, was a very thoughtful man. Afterwards, she was awakened by a nightmare for several nights, and then she accidentally got infected with the cold.

Compared to them, the people who are really in danger are Gu Yuan and Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yunzhen pursed her lips and couldn't help asking curiously: "Brother, everyone outside is saying that you and the eldest prince used the magic of shrinking the ground to return to the capital from Yuzhou that day. Isn't it true?"

"..." Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Gu Yanfei burst out laughing, and his laughter was crisp.

Gu Yunzhen knew the answer when she smiled, and she picked up the teacup in embarrassment and used the tea to hide her embarrassment.

Gu Yuan curled his lips with a funny look. Anyway, the matter has been settled, so there is nothing that cannot be said to Gu Yunzhen.

He sorted out his thoughts and said in a concise manner: "The eldest prince and I didn't go to Yuzhou. After we left Beijing for two hundred miles, we came back in disguise..."

Gu Yuan roughly explained the whole story.

After the Battle of Yangzhou nine years ago, King Kang spent nine years to dismantle the Hu Ben Army a little bit and enter the three camps and the twelve guards. No one except himself knew where the Hu Ben Army was.

The Hu Ben Army is King Kang's trump card.

It was not until this time that King Kang transferred the Hu Ben Army from all over the place and turned it into a whole.

After Gu Yuan and Chu Yi sneaked back to the capital quietly, they kept paying attention to King Kang's movements. On April 15, the two soldiers split into two groups. Chu Yi secretly followed the emperor to the imperial tomb, while Gu Yuan stayed in the capital.

King Kang's target was the emperor, and the large forces of the Hu Ben Army were following him. He thought that the capital was not afraid, so he only left a thousand Hu Ben Army to send to Empress Dowager Yuan.

Seven days ago, when the sound of the great destruction sounded throughout the capital, Gu Yuan knew that Empress Dowager Yuan had started to act, and immediately mobilized the Jinwu Guards and two thousand Shangyang Army to capture the thousand Tiger Ben Army in the capital in one fell swoop, and quickly controlled the four city gates.

Empress Dowager Yuan was trapped in the deep palace, and Gu Yuan cut off her eyes and ears. She had no idea about what was happening outside. It was not until Chu Yi took a group of criminals back to Beijing from the imperial tomb that Empress Dowager Yuan realized that she and King Kang had failed.

"The Empress Dowager was stimulated and couldn't afford to be seriously ill. The Imperial Doctor said, I'm afraid it would be bad." Gu Yuan said at the end, and his expression was indifferent when he talked about the Empress Dowager's serious ill.

Gu Yunzhen listened quietly, sometimes shocked and sometimes relieved, and his expression changed quite wonderfully.

After a while, Gu Yunzhen calmed down and asked again: "Brother, the marriage between the two countries..."

Gu Yuan did not answer, raised his sword eyebrows slightly, turned to look at Gu Yanfei sitting on his right hand.

Gu Yanfei calculated with a finger and said lightly: "The saint of Yue Kingdom is about to die."

Gu Yuan smiled but said nothing and picked up the teacup.

Although Chu Yi did not say it clearly, Gu Yuan could guess that there was something wrong with "Dou Zixiang", otherwise how could he help them cover up their whereabouts? The appearance of "Dou Zixiang" is probably related to the powerful Tianyuansi Lord of Yue State.

Gu Yunzhen didn't pay attention to the lawsuit between the brother and sister. He lowered his eyes and looked at the heavy and floating tea leaves in the teacup, and said to himself: "The saint of Yue Kingdom has passed away, so the marriage between the two countries should be enough to give up."

Gu Yunzhen said that the marriage between the two countries was Li Yunhao.

Gu Yun is really in a very complicated mood for Li Yun's sister who grew up with her since childhood.

Previously, when news of King Kang agreeing to marry the Emperor of Yue came, Gu Yunzhen had somewhat sympathized with Li Yun'an. She knew that Li Yun'an had a deep affection for King Kang. Li Yun'an once said that King Kang would agree to her and would be with her for a lifetime.

But later, Gu Yunzhen learned about King Kang and Li Yunhao forcing the palace in the imperial tomb, and thought he was ridiculous.

A pitiful person must have something hateful, and Li Yunhao never needs to be pitiful by himself.

Gu Yunzhen's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he drank tea silently, trying hard to put Li Yun'an behind his head.

Li Yunhao's surname is Li, and they are no longer related!

Juan Bi, who served them with tea, was also focused, and her eyes were lit. She felt in her heart that what Gu Yuan said was even more exciting than the script.

Seeing that the tea was almost gone, she quickly served tea for the three masters.

Gu Yunzhen sniffed the fragrance of tea, put down the teacup he had just picked up again, and asked in a low voice: "Where is the eldest princess Fengyang?"

This time, Gu Yunzhen asked Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yanfei sighed softly, with a faint look, and said, "Princess Fengyang has been infected with the soul-devouring technique for twenty-one years."

"The soul-devouring technique eroded her soul bit by bit like a drop of water through a stone. Now her soul is already full of holes, like a tree trunk that was eaten by termites."

"If it were ten years earlier, I might have a way, but now..."

Gu Yanfei said halfway, and did not say anything further.

She didn't mention Fengyang's soul to death and could not enter the cycle of reincarnation, and she didn't want to make Gu Yun upset.

If she was in the Yaoling Realm, she might be able to think of a way, but this small world is a place of utterly spirits, and all she could do was to use the spiritual energy in various jades to barely revive Feng Yang for a few days.

"..." Gu Yunzhen opened her mouth, her throat tightened, and she didn't ask any further questions.

The room calmed down and the atmosphere suddenly changed. The three brothers and sisters all looked solemn, and even Juan Bi's eyes were a little red.

“Meow!”

Until the cat's meows outside the house broke the silence, Qingguang ran heartlessly in the courtyard outside, sometimes rushing to butterflies and sometimes scratching trees, making the ground fall in the courtyard with a mess.

Gu Yunzhen stared at Qingguang for a long time, and suddenly let out a low voice:

"ah!"

Gu Yunzhen stood up suddenly from the chair.

She was too excited and accidentally hit the chair behind her, making a clanging sound, which caused several others in the room to look at her.

"Yan Fei," Gu Yunzhen quickly grabbed Gu Yanfei's hand and urged anxiously, "Don't sit down, hurry up and go to dress up, the auspicious time is coming."

Gu Yunzhen said, while looking at the pot not far away.

It's less than half an hour before the auspicious time, and it's still time.

By the way!

Gu Yunzhen thought of something again, and then turned to Gu Yuan and said, "Brother, you go and change your clothes and dress up formally. Today is Yan Fei's big day!"

Gu Yunzhen looked at Gu Yuan with a little disgust, feeling that Gu Yuan was dressed too plainly. Not only was his robe half-new and not old, but he didn't even have a jade pendant on his body.

When Gu Yanfei, who had no jewelry around him, he couldn't help but sigh: These brothers and sisters are really brothers and sisters!

Gu Yunzhen quickly pulled Gu Yanfei toward the inner room, muttering, "Yanfei, you have to change your clothes, your hairstyle, and your jewelry..."

Gu Yunzhen was calculating time in his mind, and the more he calculated, the more he thought that time was a bit rush.

"..." Gu Yanfei actually felt that there was nothing wrong with her and Gu Yuan like this now, but looking at Gu Yun's passionate look, he didn't dare to say it.

She smiled obediently.

The eldest sister is in charge, of course the eldest sister has the final say!

Madam Pang, who was anxious, had already wanted to remind them. She heard that they were trying to force the palace and said that Princess Fengyang did not dare to interrupt, so she could only prepare clothes and jewelry for Gu Yanfei first.

Madam Pang greeted her with a smile and said happily: "Grand girl, I have picked several clothes for the second girl. You can pick one."

After several months of getting along, Madam Pang also learned about her second girl. If there is any major event in the mansion, she will listen to the second girl; as for these trivial matters, she will listen to the eldest girl.

"I have also picked a few sets of faces, one of which was newly bought at Zhen's Silver Village last month. I look very suitable for the second girl."

They said, and surrounded Gu Yan and flew in.
