The news of the princess's fall from grace quickly spread throughout the palace. Although it is said that the princess is in charge of the palace and has a certain majesty in the palace, in the final analysis, the foundation of any woman's foothold in the palace is the favor of the prince. Once the princess falls out of favor, her status is no longer there.

For a while, the entire palace was in a state of wait-and-see, and those concubines who often came to please Gu Shuiyue were not as attentive as usual.

In the entire palace, the most calm one is Gu Shuiyue.

As always, she drank tea, read books, and looked at the ledger as if nothing had happened.

Yinzhu knelt in front of Gu Shuiyue's door for a day and a night, no matter what Gu Shuiyue said, she refused to get up.

"Niangniang, it's the slave maid who is wrong, if it weren't for the slave maid to enter the Red Makeup Pavilion, it wouldn't have caused the maid to be angry with the prince. "Drink beads.

In her heart, Niangniang is a unique existence, so after hearing that the prince has another love, she couldn't believe that she did such an arrogant thing, and finally affected Niangniang.

"Drink beads, something like this will happen sooner or later. It's not your fault. Gu Shuiyue said. The facts already exist, and it is not a matter of time before they are discovered.

In fact, she did not find nothing, she knew a terrible secret. It didn't hurt her.

Gu Shuiyue took a handkerchief, wiped away the tears on her face for Yinzhu, and then took her hand and pulled her up with brute force: "Silly girl, this is not necessarily a bad thing for us." ”

Tears hung on her eyelashes, and she looked puzzled: "Isn't it a bad thing that my mother has been grounded?"

Gu Shuiyue showed an unfathomable smile, did not speak again, but pulled the drinking bead and sat down on the chair: "What do you think of the person in the painting?"

Yinzhu thought about it for a while: "Women don't let their eyebrows go, unlike the women in the boudoir, they have outstanding temperament...... But naturally it's not as good as a mother!"

Gu Shuiyue looked at her eyes, as if she had looked into the depths of her heart, and saw all her disguises.

Yingzhu lowered her head a little weakly, she always felt that her mother was a unique existence, until she saw the woman in the painting, her appearance was not as good as Niangniang, but there was always an indescribable momentum......

"She is the only one who can match the mother. Yuzhu had to tell the truth, "Niangniang, who is she?" Looking at the armor on her body, she should be a female general, but Shuoyun does not have a female general. A woman who can go into battle to kill the enemy is really different. ”

Before Gu Shuiyue could answer, a subordinate hurriedly walked in from outside and replied: "Niangniang, Chengguo Gong has sent a few beauties to the prince, how do you think Niangniang should arrange it?"

"Niangniang!" Drinking beads' voice couldn't help but rise.

Gu Shuiyue's expression also became smiling, after knowing that she had fallen out of favor, these people couldn't wait to send someone to the backyard of the palace, did they want to replace her?

"Take it with you. Gu Shuiyue said.

Gu Shuiyue sat in the main hall of the backyard, and the big girl led a group of women into it.

There are a total of four women here, all of whom are fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing purple and red clothes, and the four women have their own characteristics. The first one is dignified, at first glance, everyone is beautiful, the second is charming, with a unique style, the third is burly, and the fourth is ......

When Gu Shuiyue's gaze fell to the fourth, her eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.

The fourth one is different from the previous three in that she has a face, her eyes are dark and deep, her face has the softness of a woman, and it is also angular, her face is five points similar to Gu Tianlan's.

It is a very obscure thing for a prince to fall in love with a general of an enemy country. The version that is now circulating is that Gu Shuiyue broke into the forbidden land and provoked the prince to be angry. And no one knew that what was hidden in the Red Makeup Pavilion was Gu Tianlan's portrait. And now, Cheng Guogong knows.

Gu Tianlan asked the attendants beside him: "What is the origin of Cheng Guogong?"

The attendant said: "It is the mother of the old princess, obviously Cheng Guogong is the brother of the old princess, and the prince will not refuse anyone sent by Cheng Guogong." ”

I see.

"Give them a yard and live in it. Gu Shuiyue said.

"Do you want to report to the prince?" the man asked.

Gu Shuiyue shook her head: "No need. ”

The big girl led the four women and retreated. The eldest girl was Gu Shuiyue's person, and after understanding what she meant, she arranged these women in the courtyard farthest from the palace, ensuring that they would not have a chance to meet the prince after going around a few circles.

As soon as the courtyard door closed, the despair on the faces of the four women was revealed.

"What should we do? Lord Guogong ordered us to be favored by the prince, if the prince is favored, then we will be glorious for life. And we don't even have a chance to meet the prince now!"

"If we can't get the favor of the prince, do we want to die alone in this courtyard?"

"The palace is ruled by Gu Shuiyue's woman, she won't let us see the prince, and we can't help it!"

"A woman who has fallen out of favor is still so arbitrary, if he wins the favor of the prince one day, let her taste how I feel today. The woman who had been standing quietly on the side said suddenly, the ambition in her eyes was undisguised.

"Lin Xuemu, be quiet, if such words reach her ears, you don't know how to torture us? If you want to take revenge on her, you have to have this opportunity!"

As soon as the man's words fell, the door of the courtyard was pushed open, and an old woman stood at the door, her eyes swept over the four women: "Which of you is Lin Xuemu?"

Lin Xuemu took a step forward, and her dark eyes were happy: "I am Lin Xuemu." ”

The old lady's eyes swept over Lin Xuemu's face, and she nodded secretly, this person is indeed similar to the person in the portrait. She didn't expect Guogong's speed to be so fast, as soon as the old lady's words came out, Guogong did it today.

"Miss Lin, please come with the old slave, the old lady wants to see you. ”

Lin Xuemu followed the old lady and left, and the remaining three girls, you look at me, I look at you, and they haven't reacted to what is going on.

They still don't know that they are just a foil, and what Cheng Guogong wants to send is Lin Xuemu, if she is given alone, it will be too conspicuous.

The old lady, who had been closed, seemed to have figured it out, no longer angry with Gu Shuiyue, and finally walked out of her yard.

The old lady even set up a banquet herself, as if she wanted to make amends with Gu Shuiyue.

"Niangniang, the slave always thinks that the old lady has bad intentions. "Drink beads.

She was always a little uneasy in her heart. With the arrogant nature of the old lady, even if she can't accept this fact, she won't take the initiative to set up a banquet to make amends.

Abnormality is a demon.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger. The old lady has invited me, if I don't go, wouldn't it be my fault?" Gu Shuiyue said. In any case, even if she knew that it was a Hongmen banquet, she had to go to the banquet.

The dinner was well prepared. When Gu Shuiyue arrived, many people had already arrived and had already taken their seats. Only there was an empty seat next to the old lady, and when the old lady saw Gu Shuiyue, she looked at her and beckoned her, asking her to sit next to her.

Gu Shuiyue walked over and sat down beside the old lady.

The old lady held Gu Shuiyue's hand and said affectionately: "Shuiyue has been tired these days, and it looks like she has lost some weight." Mama Qin, send some stewed soup to the princess tomorrow. ”

The old lady was very close to Gu Shuiyue, as if she was not the one who wished Gu Shuiyue to die before. Gu Shuiyue kept a smile on her face, and she received all the 'love' from the old lady.

Soon, Gongsun Yi also came, sitting on the other side of the old lady, he didn't even look at Shui Yue, he directly picked up the wine in the cup and drank it.

Everyone present couldn't help but glance at each other, it seems that the rumors that the princess has fallen out of favor are not groundless.

For a while, there are those who gloat, those who are happy to see it happen, and more who feel that they have another opportunity.

The faces of the women were a little more amorous, and their hot eyes fell on King Yun intentionally or unintentionally.

Gongsun Yi seemed to be unaware of it, and kept drinking by himself.

"Xue Mu, come and pour wine for the prince. The old lady said.

The young girl twisted her slender waist and walked in front of the Cloud King, pouring wine into the empty cup, and suddenly, the woman's hand shook, and the wine fell on the table and splashed on the Cloud King's body.

King Yun was already in a bad mood, but when this happened, his thick eyebrows had been twisted into a ball, and his eyes looked at the subordinate who made a mistake with anger.

When he saw the woman's face, the expression on King Yun's face was stunned for a moment.

Lin Xuemu hurriedly knelt down: "Xuemu is clumsy, please punish the prince!"

After saying that, he hung his head.

Gongsun Yi stretched out his hand, picked up Lin Xuemu's chin, and looked at the woman's face, as if there was a glimmer of light in her originally cold eyes. Gongsun Yi's Adam's apple moved up and down, and he suddenly got up, picked up the woman who was kneeling on the ground, and walked in one direction.

The originally lively dinner party suddenly quieted down, and the women reacted and couldn't help gritting their teeth in resentment.

This fox is really clever, and she was favored like this, and snatched the opportunity that should have belonged to them.

"It seems that tomorrow the palace will have another favorite concubine. Someone's voice seemed to be unintentional, as if it was said to Gu Shuiyue.
