In Kunning Palace, news spread that Gu Zhao had obtained the military power of the previous one hundred thousand army.
It's just that the emperor's condition for him was to let Gu Zhao find a way to be responsible for the expenses of these people, and the court would only pay military pay.
Gu Zhao still answered.
"Your Majesty, by doing this, you are trying to burn bridges. After all, these people have been with you through life and death many times. Even if they are managed by General Gu, aren't they still working for the imperial court?"
The emperor had just raided the Liu family, so how could he be short of money?
It was just to embarrass Gu Zhao and let Gu Zhao share the burden.
"There is another news. The emperor still wants to grant a marriage to the second daughter of Duke Zhongguo to General Gu. It is said that Duke Zhongguo has asked to write a letter to plead guilty and return things to the way they were before. The emperor also agreed." Cuigu said again.
"Alas, I didn't intend to give anyone any face at the beginning, and now I'm rushing to sue for peace. Isn't Mr. Zhong Guo just slapping himself in the face? Can this Miss Su still be treated well?"
Jin Xin felt that the emperor and Duke Zhong were really going too far. They did not take Gu Zhao seriously at all and could manipulate him however they wanted.
"Who says it's not the case?" Cui Gu also began to sympathize with General Gu at this time.
He was full of passion, but could not be looked down upon by the emperor, allowing the treacherous ministers to confuse the Sacred Heart.
"Gu Zhao also agreed?"
"I agreed. He also agreed to the conditions proposed by the emperor."
Jin Xin sighed again, but felt depressed for Gu Zhao.
"Second Miss Su will also come to the palace to express gratitude. Do you want to see me again?" Cui Gu asked.
"What if it's worse? I can't violate the Emperor's wishes. Since it's just a reminder, I'll give the Su family a good beating." Jin Xin said angrily.
At this time, in Changle Palace, Concubine Shun naturally also knew the news. She sat up from the couch and was not in the mood to go back to sleep.
"The emperor wants to marry Gu Zhao again? Or is it the young lady of the Su family?"
"Exactly. Previously, the Su family secretly exchanged their daughter for a concubine instead of a legitimate daughter in exchange for a horoscope postcard and a portrait. General Gu made a fuss in front of the emperor, and the emperor married her instead to his legitimate daughter." Xiaohui replied.
Concubine Shun laughed angrily when she heard this.
"The Su family is so shameless. The concubine was replaced by the legitimate daughter, and then back again after the incident. No man wants any of the daughters in this family, right?" Concubine Shun roared angrily.
Xiaohui was shocked and hurriedly advised, "Don't be angry, please be careful. Walls have ears."
Concubine Shun was so angry that her chest heaved. She couldn't really control herself. Everyone was thinking about Gu Zhao.
Only I can't.
Although the military power was obtained, Concubine Shun's heart was empty and she no longer wanted to go to bed.
But she can't decide where she is now a favored person. Now that she knows that Gu Zhao has been granted marriage again, she feels extremely depressed.
Why can the Su family's daughter do it? She doesn't allow it.
"When will Su Wan enter the palace to express her gratitude?" Concubine Shun asked through gritted teeth.
"Let's make an appointment for these two days. The original wedding date was in September, but now it's August. There are a lot of procedures to go through, and I must enter the palace as soon as possible to express my gratitude."
"On the day she enters the palace, you can keep an eye on her and ask Xiao Youzi to do something for me."
Hearing this, Xiao Hui stepped forward and was startled after hearing Concubine Shun's words, "We don't have the ability to deal with killing people in the palace."
If this matter is investigated, it will be difficult to hide it.
"So what, this was done quietly, who would know." Concubine Shun rolled her eyes at Xiaohui and said nonchalantly.
The queen enjoyed Gu Zhao's affection so much, but saw him being so despised by Duke Zhongguo. The queen could sit back and ignore it, but she couldn't.
Now it seems that the queen is also incompetent. She doesn't have to do anything to be aloof. Why?
Thinking this way, her determination became stronger.
Three days later, Su Wan entered the palace.
While listening to the training in Kunning Palace, Jin Xin looked at Su Wan in front of her, with a much more stern expression on her eyebrows than Su Yan's.
However, he is more confident and flamboyant, and one can tell at a glance that he has developed his confidence because he is quite favored.
Compared to Su Yan's weakness, Su Wan looked a bit stronger.
"I am curious, why does Duke Zhong suddenly want to marry you to General Gu again?"
After talking about some scenes, Jin Xin started to ask curiously.
Things have become like this, and she may not be treated well even if she gets married. She might as well give up on this marriage, but she still rushes to continue getting married. It's really incomprehensible.
"Back to the Queen, I am pleased with General Gu and want to make up for it. What happened before was a misunderstanding. Now that it has been solved, it will not be in vain to bring the matter back to its original point. The Emperor's good intentions will not be wasted." Su Wan replied respectfully.
Jin Xin raised her eyebrows when she heard this, knowing that she would be a smart person to use the emperor to block her.
"But your Su family has gone too far after all, and you need to make up for it. General Gu is the hero, so you can't bully him."
"How dare you, my lord? My lord, I will definitely be a good helper to General Gu, share his worries, and never let him be wronged." Su Wan said hurriedly.
She meant what she said.
The last time they met unexpectedly, she met Gu Zhao by chance. She thought that this man was clear-cut, elegant, and clean. He was not like the rough guy her father said. He was full of swear words and violent and unpredictable. He was clearly the fairy brother in the story books she loved to read.
When she knew he was Gu Zhao and the person he married was Su Yan, she didn't know how regretful and angry she was.
When she learned that Gu Zhao was going to the palace to ask for an explanation, she immediately begged her father to change her back and make up for her mistakes. She tried to persuade her father to go to the palace to plead for mercy and continue the marriage.
Gu Zhao didn't refuse, she was really happy.
He must also be interested in her, which means that when they met that day, not only did she care about him, but he also remembered herself.
Seeing that she was sincere and sincere, Jin Xin stopped talking about the rest of her words.
If he was a sincere person and could treat Gu Zhao kindly, it would actually be okay.
The process is a bit disdainful, as long as the result is good.
After talking for a while, Jin Xin became a little tired and planned to take a nap, so she was sent out.
Su Wan was in a relaxed mood. When she walked out of Kunning Palace, Concubine Shun stepped forward and said, "Is this Miss Su Er?"
Su Wan paused when she heard the words, stood still, and bowed gracefully, "My dear Su Wan, please see your concubine Shun. May your concubine be safe and sound."
"Do you recognize me?" Concubine Shun asked with a smile.
"The empress is so beautiful and graceful that she is favored by the emperor, so I naturally recognize her." Su Wan said sweetly.
Concubine Shun smiled slightly and said, "Miss Su Er is indeed smart and has a sharp tongue. The lotus flowers in Jinming Pond are in bloom. It's boring for me to enjoy the flowers alone. How about you and I go together."
When Su Wan heard this, she ignored him and thought it would be good to have a good relationship with the nobles in the palace, so she nodded and followed.
The lotus flowers are blooming all over the pond. If a person falls in and doesn't look carefully in summer, he will be covered in the lotus pond and the smell may not be discovered.
Concubine Shun asked people to look around. After making sure that no one knew that Su Wan was here, she immediately asked people to arrest the master and servant.
Before Amelia Su could react, she was knocked unconscious.
Then he threw it under the deepest lotus leaf.
