The Tales of a Blessed Daughter-Chapter 182 - Set Out for Shu Prefecture in the South
Chapter 182: Set Out for Shu Prefecture in the South
In the following period of time, everyone in the imperial court discovered that Guang Pingwang seemed to have taken the wrong medicine.
He usually did not seem to care about the affairs of the court, but recently, he had suddenly taken care of everything.
It was not a bad thing. No matter how troublesome the matter was, it would not be a problem for Guang Pingwang to handle it.
The ministers no longer had to scratch their bald heads.
For a moment, they all felt overwhelmed by the favor.
They were all speculating, could it be that Guang Pingwang wants to become the Emperor himself?
Their minds began to move.
On this day, Gu Ruoyun had received no less than ten ministers who had veiled their allegiance to him.
This was the first time someone had tried to usurp the throne. There was no need to rope them in. The ministers had taken the initiative to submit to him.
Nonsense!
If Guang Pingwang wanted to be Emperor, wouldn’t it be as easy as drinking water?
This was a good time to curry favor with him.
Gu Ruoyun’s face was cold as he chased away one minister after another.
After Nalan Cui’s arrival, the morning court officially began.
The imperial court once again began to discuss the recent difficulties.
A drought in the south and refugees uprising.
The crowd had grown accustomed to this in the past few days. They all turned to look at Guang Pingwang.
Gu Ruoyun pursed his lips tightly and his brows were filled with impatience.
Just as everyone thought that he would be angry, Gu Ruoyun said, “Send someone to guard the place.”
Nalan Cui had already begun to look like an emperor. He furrowed his brows and said, “But it’s not easy to choose the person to guard the place.”
He looked at Gu Ruoyun with hesitation in his eyes.
Gu Ruoyun sighed and said, “I’ll go.”
Nalan Cui’s eyes flashed with surprise. He was the one whom he had chosen but he did not dare to speak up.
As the problem had been solved, the imperial court has dispersed.
Gu Ruoyun and Nalan Cui left together but the ministers were still in a daze.
What was this Guang Pingwang trying to do?!
Just as they were scratching at their hearts, Gu Ruoyun and Nalan Cui had arrived at the imperial study.
Gu Ruoyun replied directly, “I’ll set off tomorrow. Yan’er, arrange for her to enter the imperial palace for a period of time.”
Nalan Cui did not understand but he still nodded.
Gu Ruoyun scanned the bookshelves in the imperial study.
His long fingers skimmed through the books in front of him. He picked out a few books and threw them at Nalan Cui behind him. “Finish reading these books. I’ll check them when I return.”
Nalan Cui nodded obediently. This kind of thing often happened in Guang Residence.
Gu Ruoyun did not have the patience to teach him. He would throw him a pile of books each time and let him ponder over them. Then, he would tell him the main points.
He would only tell him once. He would not care if he did not understand him.
Nalan Cui placed the books on the table at the side. He turned around and Gu Ruoyun picked out another pile of books and placed them neatly on the ground.
Gu Ruoyun did not stop until the pile of books had reached the height of half a man.
He left after instructing Nalan Cui to read the books.
Nalan Cui put away his obedient expression and looked at the pile of books on the table and the pile on the ground. His eyes flashed with a trace of contemplation.
Although Gu Ruoyun had been teaching him, he could clearly sense that Gu Ruoyun was a little anxious.
What was the reason? ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣o𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢
He could not figure it out, but Nalan Cui would not let go of this opportunity to grow.
Gu Ruoyun returned to Guang Residence and informed Su Yan.
He was going to the Shu Prefecture in the south to quell the refugee uprising.
Although Su Yan felt that it was a little sudden, she quickly helped him pack his luggage.
Early the next morning, Gu Ruoyun set off. ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖
Just as he was about to leave, someone came from the imperial palace.
Su Yan saw that it was Nalan Cui who had arranged the men and quickly followed him.
When they arrived at the imperial palace once again, it became much quieter.
Without concubine, prince, and princess, Nalan Cui was the only master left. Nalan Cui was surrounded by a group of eunuchs and servant girl.
No wonder he did not like the imperial palace and always wanted to run to Guang Residence.
Nalan Cui was waiting at the door of the imperial study early in the morning. When he saw Su Yan arrive, he came over to welcome her.
