Chapter 198: Great Rewards and Surprises

A beautiful face was reflected in Cheng Liang's bronze mirror. Fu was sitting in front of the dressing table. She gently stood up and got closer, and saw a small scar on the right side of the smooth forehead. The wound had been healed for more than a month, but because the wound was too deep, the scar would not heal for a while, and it was probably difficult to eliminate it in the future.

It was originally a small piece, but after healing, the hard scabs on the outside fell off. The color was very light, but her forehead was too smooth and white, and a little flaw was very obvious. Fu reached out and rubbed it gently, and his fingers felt a little hard on the wound healing point.

A fire of namelessness surged in her heart, angry and distressed. For a beautiful woman, her face was second only to her life, and destroying her face was more serious than killing her! Although she didn't say it, Fu obviously cared about this matter very much. The emperor made such a scar on her face without even apologizing, and even called a "bitter"? The hatred in her heart gradually fermented, and she had worn away the gratitude and favor that she had just gotten married a few years ago.

Fu thought to himself: It’s just that I thought I had been married, not a perfect body.

That piece of useless flesh is more important than a woman's life, character, and whole person? Isn't it true that Fu's family has heard of it in the Fu family and Hezhong Mansion. Some lowly slaves have been played with all their bodies before getting married, and they just have nothing to do with them. They are also perfect... Could it be that such slaves are cleaner than women who have been married with justice?

Fu has never served anyone at all, and even her fingers have almost never been touched. But she is very disgusted and hated the strange thoughts of men now, and she doesn't care about it at all. She is a manifestation of treating women as playthings and possessions. Isn't a woman anymore?

She suppressed the anger in her heart. She lowered her head and found the prepared paint paper, gently picked up the fingers and stuck it on her scar. Then she picked up a brush and gently swiped the yellow paper to press it evenly on her forehead.

After a while, she tore off the yellow flowers and saw a yellow plum blossom on her smooth and white forehead in the mirror. She didn't look so used to it, but it didn't seem ugly, which made her simple dress a little more charming... and the scars could not be seen, unless you were close to it and looked carefully.

Fu looked in the mirror for a long time, and was a little satisfied, throwing the anger and depression just now out of her mind. In fact, she is a person of the same temperament as her second sister, and is more optimistic. If she was not optimistic and would not think about it herself, she would probably be in a hurry all day long, and would not be happy now.

Her curved eyes finally showed a little smile again.

At this moment, the eunuch Cao Tai entered and directly called the palace maids in the palace to retreat. Seeing that the queen had no words, the palace maids obeyed Cao Tai's words and stepped out of the palace gate. At this time, Cao Tai bowed and said, "The Privy Council dispatched the guard Sihu Jie Army's left wing to Qizhou, Hebei Province, and left Beijing in September. The guard Sima Budu Yuhou Guo Shao was the chief general. The Empress's sister sent someone to the palace gate and sent a letter. She wanted to go back to Daming Mansion to live for a while and say goodbye to the Empress."

Fu was slightly stunned and quickly straightened out the relationship between these things.

She just said, "I get it."

Cao Tai said at the right time: "Then... I will take my leave?"

Fu said again: "You make arrangements, I will leave the palace and go to the Fu family's house. Last time I met my second sister; I sent someone to summon her, and I will practice it for her. I also want to remind her and bring some greetings to my father."

"Do you want to summon Guo Shao together?" Cao Tai asked calmly.

Fu was a little hesitant. She couldn't forget the scene when she was wounded last time, and she was impressed by other irrelevant things that happened that time. When the emperor met, he knew where she went and who she met.

No matter how brave she was, she was a little scared when she thought about it, and immediately said, "No need."

Cao Tai bowed and replied, "Now." After that, he quietly withdrew from the bedroom.

Fu sat quietly on the cushion on the stool, feeling the uncontrollable beating of his right eyelid. His thoughts that had just calmed down were a little upset.

Based on her understanding of Chai Rong, Chai Rong's desire to collect the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun had reached a nearly crazy level. He dreamed that he would become a great emperor who was as famous as Emperor Taizong of Tang and even surpassed the wise monarchs in history, and would be famous for generations. Therefore, Fu judged that this transfer should not be due to internal struggle. Judging from his previous performance, Guo Shao was a very valuable general. At the critical moment of the Northern Expedition, when it was time to employ people, Chai Rong could not take action with Guo Shao... This is also why there was a big conflict between Guo Shao and Zhao Kuangyin, and Chai Rong wanted to protect both sides.

However, will Guo Shao stay in the outer town after the Northern Expedition?

Li Chongjin's example is the worst situation; in addition, the emperor may not have any other intentions, so he would leave the general of the Guards and the general who led the troops outside. For example, Han Lingkun, the commander of the Guards and the Ma Army, still brings the right wing of the Long Jie Army and some partial troops in Xiacai Town, Shouzhou. It has been more than half a year and it is only possible that he will be retraceed due to the Northern Expedition in the near future.

If Guo Shao is stranded in a foreign town after leaving Beijing this time... that will be quite unfavorable to Fu family!

If things change then, she will have no soldiers in Tokyo. Her prestige and fame in the imperial guards are the same thing. For example, some small things are easy to deal with, and the imperial guards and court ministers are willing to sell favors; but it is another matter when you really want to use military forces. Only a general who is fully trustworthy and capable will be with her at a critical moment.

This person is only Guo Shao! Her brother-in-law is willing to hand over his life to her son, and also controls the 20,000 elite troops in the left wing of the Hu Jie Army. She is simply the most important person... If Guo Shao did not provide reliable support, she would feel guilty no matter how she set up her plan.

"Swish swish..." A slight sound came in, and a gust of wind blew the purple curtains, shaking the sound of silk fabrics.

At this time, Fu found that the wind was getting colder and colder, and a chill suddenly appeared on her body. She suddenly felt very scared... fear of the future.

She heard and saw a lot of things. When the order collapsed, all kinds of crazy things that were unimaginable could happen, such as what I heard. When the Hebei chaos, the Khitans and the rioters arrested women. No matter what your origin and status, they first raped, lust, abused, and then cut them alive and cooked and eaten. There are more tragic things that happened. By then, they will definitely be worse than death in life, and they will still care about dignity?

I am the queen, and if I fail, I will only be killed quietly. But no one can know how I will be treated before I kill... The more beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is. If an ordinary-looking old woman is, it may be nothing. At that time, I may have to muster up the courage to overcome her fear of death and make up for it on her own.

Fu felt that she was often intimidated, and that inexplicable threat was very obscure but clearly felt.

She looked back at herself in the bronze mirror, and the yellow plum blossoms on her forehead were not used to it. Some negative emotions actually aroused her crazy desire in her heart... She could not experience the happiness she described by her second sister until she died? If everyone was about to die, what else could she not do!

The body of Fu Ermei was numb and transcends the state of selflessness like life and death... Fu boldly fantasized in her heart: she compared the same way and exchanged identities like last time, escaped from the shell, and then arranged a private meeting of Guo Shao...

I imagined that Fu's face had already flushed.

After a while, she finally regained her rationality. It was too dangerous to do that. Even if she was not afraid of death, she had to take care of so many people from the Dianfu family... and she was actually a very afraid of death.

Fu sat in the bronze mirror with expressionless expression on her neck, and she let out a long sigh, and soon re-planned a more practical approach.

"Come." Fu shouted without looking back.

A palace woman came in and said, "What are the instructions of the Queen?"

Fu said, "Go and call someone and arrange for two imperial doctors to follow me out of the palace."

...It was the house in the west of the city. Guo Shao was not summoned. As expected, he personally took the car to send Fu Ermei over. Fu avoided him and just asked someone to receive him in the outer courtyard.

The second sister was a little reluctant, but Fu's behavior was much ruthless. She did not say goodbye to the second sister, but just asked someone to come in and take the pulse of the second sister through the curtain.

"I'm fine, I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere!" The second sister seemed to be very resistant to being taken to the pulse.

Fu advised: "Let the doctor take a look and he won't ask you to take medicine. It's not about whether you are sick or whether you are pregnant."

After hearing this, the second sister blushed: "If I had it, I would know."

Fu said, "You have to stay in your parents' home for so long. If you are pregnant now, it would be fine, because you have been in the Guo family after getting married; if you are not pregnant, you will not be pregnant for a period of time... Do you understand what the eldest sister means?"

The second sister was a little angry and said angrily: "Sister, you said it seems like I can steal a man, Humph! Even my husband is not worried about me."

Fu Shi said: "I am from Ermei's parents' family, so of course I have to think about you."

The second sister complained: "Sister thinks so much, we didn't think about it at all."

After playing with his pulse, the imperial doctor said with certainty that he could not see anything.

Fu then held her back and said to her second sister quietly: "You'll go out later, so I'll give Brother Shao a few words."

"What's the matter?"

Fu thought for a moment before whispering: "You must not let the officials down when you make him fight the Northern Expedition; in addition, you must find a way to return to Tokyo after the war, and fight for it at any cost."

The second sister looked puzzled: "What does eldest sister mean?"

Fu said, "You don't understand some things. Just tell Guo Shao, he will understand them. Only the three of us know these words. Don't tell others, it's important. If you believe my elder sister's words, can I treat you badly?"

After hearing this, the second sister nodded firmly: "Of course I believe in my elder sister's words the most."

Fu pursed her red lips and whispered: "Tell him... I did what I said, I will reward him when I come back to Beijing."
