On this day, the sky was a little gloomy, Gu Zhirong leaned on the couch boredly, holding a post sprinkled with gold dust in his hand, only glanced at it, and threw it back.

Cai Qing walked over, shook his head, put the gilded post on a plum blossom table next to him, and changed the bamboo branch in the plum bottle placed on the table, and then said with a smile: "Miss is getting more and more out of shape, and the post sent by the concubine Niangniang dares to throw it casually, if the noble concubine Niangniang knows, I am afraid that it will be bearable." ”

Gu Zhirong stood up lazily, and didn't look at the post: "What's this, it's just a concubine in the harem, relying on the emperor's favor, he actually sent a post of 10,000 people, inviting the officials and relatives of the entire Shengjing to come to her birthday, like what is it, I don't think the queen mother has been so showy when she is alive, right?"

Cai Qing said: "Miss, she is Princess Xiliang, and her customs are different from ours in the Central Plains." Presumably, when this noble concubine was not out of the cabinet, she was also like this in the palace of Xiliang Kingdom, right?"

Gu Zhirong smiled and was noncommittal.

Even if she is a princess, she should know how to control herself and know how to be modest, right? If she only blindly follows her own temperament and does whatever she likes, regardless of it, she is afraid that she will attract the suspicion and jealousy of other brothers and sisters, presumably there is a reason why this Xiliang princess married into the Central Plains.

"So, to go or not to go?" Cai Qing then asked. She remembered the group meeting of the Fragrance Club on Tianxia Street that day, Cen Guifei's expression of no one in her eyes, not only that, but she also went into battle in person, and made it difficult for her own young lady to bartangle with her own hands, thinking about this, Cai Qing couldn't help but faintly feel a worry in her heart, I don't know what tricks will be used to embarrass her own young lady on the birthday of this elusive concubine.

She looked at Gu Zhirong and said tentatively: "Otherwise, miss, let's not go to the sick, right?"

It is very easy for Gu Zhirong, who is well versed in medical science. You don't need to take any medicine, as long as you mix a few herbs together and rub them on your face, you will immediately have a vegetable-colored face, as if you are seriously ill.

Gu Zhirong shook her head, she had other plans. Although it is said that illness is a way to escape, can everything be solved by escaping?

Besides, since she met Mr. Lu, her mentality has also begun to change. If she is a person, then it doesn't matter if she escapes from the house now and travels the world from now on, unrestrained. But since she met Lu Gongzi, she thought that since she had identified Lu Gongzi now, she couldn't lose Lu Gongzi's face, so that it was rumored in the circle of official ladies in the capital that Lu Gongzi would marry a coward in the future. Since you have identified her, you must help him, assist him, and if you can't put gold on his face, at least don't let him be smeared.

She knew that he was working hard, a sister-in-law, but he was oppressed by his stepmother in the house, and he could only get rid of this oppression by studying, studying hard, and getting his career in exchange for fame. And that kind of sage book, her scalp is big when she looks at it, so she feels that the pressure on Lu Gongzi is much greater than hers.

So, if you want to work hard, let's work together. He worked hard to gain fame, and she tried to fit into the circle of these official ladies with eyes on their heads. She hoped that in the near future, he would be able to see her at a glance from a high position.

"Miss, are you really going?" the worry on Cai Qing's face was even worse, "Miss doesn't know how difficult that Cen Guifei is, as if she was born with a grudge against Miss." Or, maybe the young lady was too smart and didn't save face for her at that group meeting. Generally speaking, people like her princess are arrogant and unreasonable. ”

Gu Zhirong said with a smile: "Who said that the princess will be arrogant and unreasonable if she is born? You see that Princess Zhaomin of my dynasty is not bad." ”

Cai Qing couldn't help laughing: "Miss, you said that Princess Zhaomin is good, didn't you see the ruthlessness when she wanted to punish the fourth lady? ”

Gu Zhirong also smiled and said: "I'm not afraid, anyway, I pulled the second sister into the water, they are cousins, even if she knows, what can she say?"

Cai Qing smiled and said: "Yes, yes, the slave knows that the current Princess Zhaomin is waiting for the epiphany sent by the young lady to bloom every day, and she has no time to pursue this matter." ”

Gu Zhirong pursed his lips and smiled.

Sending epiphany is just a means, and the most important thing is that in this mansion, her three rooms are weak, and she can't form a threat to the big house at all, so Zhao Min Gong wants to help the big house, and the mao will not face her. Otherwise, I'm afraid that even ten pots, hundreds of pots of epiphany, can't buy Princess Zhaomin's heart.

She also knew that Princess Zhaomin was a grateful person, and as long as she didn't compete with the second lady for the position of crown princess, she would always be safe.

It seems that the prince is really a hot taro, and whoever is next to him is unlucky.

"So, this time, Miss decided to go?" Cai Qing stopped joking, and looked a little dignified.

Gu Zhirong patted her on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I'm not the only one who goes to the banquet, isn't there a second miss?" Moreover, Sister Wen Yan will also go." With so many people taking care of me, are you still afraid that I will lose it?"

Cai Qing tried hard to squeeze out a smile, and looked at Gu Zhirong for a long time: "Miss, you must be careful." ”

Gu Zhirong nodded.

So Cai Qing hurriedly went to get some items and clothes needed for this trip.

Seeing Cai Qing busy going in and out, Gu Zhirong couldn't help but smile and said: "Cai Qing, you have a rest, it's not like you want to stay in the palace for a few days, it's only a day's work to go back and forth, maybe I'll pretend to be drunk and come back early." ”

As soon as Cai Qing heard the word "wine", he hurriedly said, "Miss, you must not drink anymore." As if remembering something, he said to himself, "By the way, there seem to be some antidote pills that Miss made last time, so I brought them all this time, just in case." With that, he hurried inside.

Gu Zhirong smiled, this time, of course, she would not drink again, and besides, her drunkenness was known all over the city, and even the emperor sent someone to send a gift, would anyone force her to drink?

Just thinking about it, Lu Shui walked in, took out a letter and handed it to Gu Zhirong, Gu Zhirong opened it, read it quickly, his face was a little solemn, he took the letter directly, entered the study, and never came out.

Green Water fetched dinner and came back. Go to the study and call her. I saw her sitting upright in front of the bookcase carved with ebony carved evergreen pine, her hands on her cheeks, as if she was contemplating. On the bookcase in front of her, a map was spread out, almost covering the bookcase. The green water saw that the position on the top was impressively printed with a few big words: "Palace Map".

Green Water's heart hung in an instant.
