Moreover, after a few years of recuperation, his body was no longer as thin as before, which felt all boney and hard. Instead, he had gradually grown a lot of flesh. This gave Gu Qingyuan a sense of accomplishment.
Gu Qingyuan put her hand on his stomach. Ji Mingzhao, who was originally sleeping, dreamed that he was pressed by something. When he opened his eyes, he was still a little frightened.
"Are you awake?" Gu Qingyuan's voice sounded in his ears.
As his consciousness returned, Ji Mingzhao felt her hand on his stomach. In other words, the thing pressing on him in his dream was actually Gu Qingyuan's hand.
"Ah."
The constant warmth coming from her palm made Ji Mingzhao feel a little better in his stomach.
The two of them lay down for a while before getting up together.
Ji Mingzhao first changed her clothes and then put on shoes and socks for her.
Only then did he have time to clean himself up.
After Gu Qingyuan left, Xiaohan came in and said, "Mr. Ji, do you want me to make you some nourishing soup?"
He looked confused, "Give it to me?"
Xiaohan said, "Yes, the young master stayed in your room last night. Maybe you will be able to have it again soon."
Ji Mingzhao glanced at him, pursed his lips and said, "Nothing happened between us last night."
"What? But I clearly heard last night..."
I heard the young master's voice.
Ji Mingzhao said somewhat embarrassedly: "My body is not convenient these days, so I use other methods to serve my wife."
Xiaohan was a little disappointed. Then he remembered that these days were the days when Ji Cefu had her period.
Why is it such an unlucky coincidence?
......
When the Queen officially confirmed that she wanted to reappoint the Crown Princess, everyone turned their attention to the usually low-key and taciturn Sixth Princess, Wen Leyi.
During this period, the Queen had actually been promoting her and had also investigated the Sixth Princess.
After investigation, the Queen discovered that although the Sixth Princess did not often appear in front of the public on weekdays, she often went to the people to understand their sentiments.
The Sixth Princess was frugal in her daily life and spent her money where it should be spent, for example, she and the Qi family provided porridge to the people, or she went to other places, such as Xiancheng, where Gu Qingyuan and the princess had visited before.
The county magistrate of Xiancheng spent all her money on the people. Her own clothes were full of patches. The Sixth Princess once went to Xiancheng and encountered a strong wind when the people had no food to harvest. She used her salary to buy a lot of food and sent it to Xiancheng.
Only then did the Queen look directly at the woman who was dressed simply and had a calm expression on her face.
The people below were discussing, "Now that the former princess has passed away, I think the Sixth Princess has gotten a great deal."
"Who says it's not true? Previously, the Third and Fourth Princesses fought with the former Crown Princess, but they never expected that several of them would be gone like this."
Eunuch Li conveyed the Queen's words, asking everyone to be quiet, and then the Queen asked the Sixth Princess to come to the front.
"If there are no objections, I will issue an order soon to appoint the Sixth Princess as Crown Princess."
The Sixth Princess clenched her sleeves. She had never expected that she would become the Crown Princess.
Originally, her father was not of high birth and was a commoner.
Perhaps it was because she saw what her father looked like that she realized that life among the common people was completely different from that in the palace.
She would often go to the countryside to see how ordinary people really lived.
If her father had not been born with a face that the empress dowager liked, she would not have brought him from outside the palace and made him the imperial husband.
The Sixth Princess appeared calm on the surface, but in fact she could no longer suppress her excitement.
It was not until the court session ended that the empress called her and asked her to stay.
But she never expected that the first thing the empress said to her after everyone left was, "If you ascend the throne in the future, you must not exterminate the Gu family. Otherwise, I can take back the power in your hands at any time."
The Sixth Princess was stunned for a moment, then she understood.
She said respectfully to the Empress, "I understand that General Gu is devoted to his country, and we cannot let the general down. Besides, there's Young Master Gu, who is intelligent and clever, and I admire her greatly."
The queen was satisfied and told her some other things before letting her go back.
With General Gu's reputation, no other country will invade for at least the next few decades.
But if they attack the Gu family, they will probably face siege from several countries.
The Sixth Princess thought very clearly and she couldn't wait to report the good news to her father.
In this palace, according to the status, there are Queen, Noble Lord, and Imperial Husband...
Because her father was born into a commoner family, the most he could be named was the emperor's husband.
After the Sixth Princess returned, Emperor Zhao saw her and asked happily, "Le Le, what would you like to eat for lunch today?"
The Sixth Princess smiled and said, "I have good news for you. It's not too late to decide what to eat after you hear it."
Emperor Zhao nodded quickly and said, "What good news."
The Sixth Princess said, "My mother said she wants to make her daughter the Crown Princess."
Emperor Zhao was even more excited than she was, but then he became sad.
"But I'm useless and can't provide you with any assistance."
There is no one behind him. If Le Yi takes that position in the future, she will have to rely on herself for everything.
The Sixth Princess disagreed and said, "What are you talking about? Just follow your daughter and enjoy the good life in the future."
......
"Young Master, there is a letter for you."
Chunfen took an envelope from the messenger at the door and hurried back into the house to hand it to Gu Qingyuan.
"Who gave it to me?" Gu Qingyuan asked curiously.
Chunfen shook his head and said, "The messenger didn't say anything. Young Master will know after reading it."
Gu Qingyuan opened it casually and saw two letters, one big and one small.
The handwriting on the larger piece of letter paper was vigorous and powerful, and it was so vivid that Gu Qingyuan couldn't tell who wrote it at first glance.
It was not until she read a few sentences that she realized that this was a letter from Lu Rui to her.
The other letter, written on a smaller piece of paper, had more delicate words on it. It began with, "Sister-in-law, I miss you."
Gu Qingyuan laughed, as if she saw the little girl Bai Xuan lying on the table writing a letter.
She read both letters. Lu Rui only reported good news and not bad news. He only said that everything was fine in the Holy Land and he was used to it.
However, in Bai Xuan's letter, she told Gu Qingyuan about how Emperor Bai and Empress Li forced the marriage, and how her brother had gotten angry several times.
She also asked Gu Qingyuan when she could visit them again, as she wanted to take Gu Qingyuan to try the delicious food there.
Chunfen asked curiously, "Young Master, what's in the letter? Why are you laughing and sighing at the same time?"
"The letter was sent from the Holy Land."
Gu Qingyuan explained.
