Chapter 1985 The Regent Princess is about to faint again

Shi Li's parents were pardoned and returned. Even though they were now poor, their son had a promising future after all, so the young emperor specially ordered them to come to the palace to express his gratitude.

By the way, let Shi Yu and Shi Xuan go to the palace with you.

Shi Li's health is not good yet, so she could be lazy and avoid making this trip.

The Qiangyi tribe was greatly demoralized by the capture of their leader by Shi Yu this time. In addition, they had suffered repeated defeats at the border, so they probably would not dare to invade for a long time. Shi Yu was the number one meritorious official, and all the generals in the court liked him very much.

When the young emperor saw the four members of the Shi family, he naturally did not make things difficult for them. He said some words of praise and gave them some rewards. Then he let them leave the palace, but kept Gu Jinning.

Still in the emperor's study, there was no third person present.

There are only Gu Jinning and the young emperor.

The young emperor had a serious expression on his face as he looked at Gu Jinning, a hint of imperial majesty revealed on his still young face.

"Teacher, I feel that you seem to value the Shi family very much."

"Shi Yu made great contributions on the battlefield, and Shi Li donated money and rice to relieve the drought. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Gu Jinning played it down and looked at the young emperor quietly.

The once impoverished little prince has now become an emperor, and has gradually become different from the past. Gu Jinning could naturally hear such a superficial test, and knew that he had secretly met with the regent yesterday.

But he didn't expect to part ways so soon.

"The Shi family has indeed made great contributions to my country."

The young emperor curled his lips nonchalantly and spoke perfunctorily, looking at Gu Jinning as if he had left no trace, "I heard that the young master of the Gu family did stay at the Shi family for a while. Does the teacher know about this?"

This is a test as he has already started to doubt Gu Jinning's identity.

Gu Jinning shook his head, "I don't know."

He looked at the young emperor. They were master and disciple, as well as monarch and subject.

Perhaps because he felt guilty or was frightened by Gu Jinning's eyes, the young emperor touched his nose awkwardly, not knowing what to say to his former benefactor and teacher.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally remembered and said, "I wonder how the second young lady of the Shi family is doing now? Is she feeling better? I saw a blood ginseng in the private storehouse. Teacher, please take it back."

"I thank Your Majesty on behalf of Li'er." Gu Jinning had no reason to refuse. He accepted the grace, left the young emperor's study, and walked out of the palace.

He looked up and saw large clouds above his head. The wind was also very strong today. He wondered if Shi Li was feeling better.

The weather in Beijing is not as good as that in the south of the Yangtze River, and the weather does take a long time to heal, but now that the family is reunited, it is always a happy thing.

Her mother and Shi Xuan talked with her during the day, and they went back to rest after noon. Shi Li slept a lot at night, and now she couldn't fall asleep at all, lying on the bed with her eyes open, bored.

Not long after, Gu Jinning was seen walking in from outside.

Seeing that she was not asleep, he seemed more surprised than she was.

"Do you think I fell asleep? And then you wanted to sneak in?" Shi Li tilted her head and smiled at him.

Gu Jinning just paused for a moment, then continued to walk over, sat down beside her naturally, and tucked in the corner of the quilt for her, "I came to see you."

Shi Li carefully studied his face for a while, "Are you in a bad mood today?"

She couldn't tell why, but she felt that Gu Jinning didn't seem happy today.

Gu Jinning has never been one to show his dislike for things, and he didn't expect Shi Li to see through it. He was silent for a while, then slowly told Shi Li what had happened in the study.

"Your Majesty suspects you?" Shi Li took a breath after hearing this.

Gu Jinning held her hand and said, "There is no evidence, just suspicion is useless."

Shi Li couldn't help but frown, "There will always be people who can't see you doing well, can't see you at your peak... What should I do then?"

She asked frankly and directly, without beating around the bush, and she didn't worry that Gu Jinning would misunderstand.

Gu Jinning was amused by her. "Since I have come this far, I also expected that some people would doubt me, so I have made all the preparations. You don't have to worry."

Having said that, accidents always happen.

After a few days, Gu Jinning was sent out of the capital by the young emperor, and then an imperial edict came down, summoning Shi Li to the palace for an audience.

No one can stop the emperor's edict.

The whole family was worried, especially since Shi Li's health had not yet fully recovered and no one would take good care of her if she entered the palace.

But this time, Shi Li knew that he had to go.

She was dressed warmly and got on the carriage sent by the palace without looking back.

Just as she left, Shi Yu set out at full speed to look for Gu Jinning.

The incident was caused by him, and only he could protect Shi Li.
