When Jiang Zhu laid out tea and refreshments on the stone table, seasonal fruits, Xiao Yi and Gu Yanling sat silently opposite each other. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe night is as cool as water, the breeze blows lightly on the cheeks, itchy, and sometimes the sound of insects moaning, which makes people feel quite comfortable.

"Just now, but I disturbed the girl's sleep. ”

Gu Yanling raised his jaw when he heard the sound, and saw the young man opposite holding the teacup, as if waiting for his words, he didn't drink, but a pair of good-looking eyes looked at him quite calmly, silent.

Gu Yanling somehow only felt a panic when she was suddenly looked at, she couldn't help but cover her eyes in a panic, and also went to take the tea cup in front of her hand, until she felt the warmth wrapped in her palm, and then sorted out her emotions a little and said: "No, just now, the courtier was studying the chess game." ”

"Oh?"

The young man raised his eyebrows with interest, a smile flashed in his eyes, and then he said: "Then Miss Gu must be a great improvement in chess skills, why don't you try it again with me." ”

Gu Yanling was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then looked up, only to see that Xiao Yi's smile seemed to be coated with a layer of brilliance at this moment, undisguised, and did not return to his usual coldness and composure.

Suddenly, she was slightly stunned, as if the person in front of her was the real one.

For a moment, a smile also appeared on Gu Yanling's lips, and he happily responded: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”

The girl's eyes couldn't hide the amusement, and then she glanced at Jiang Zhu, and Jiang Zhu immediately took the order.

When the chessboard was placed in front, Gu Yanling and Xiao Yi put away their smiles in tacit understanding, and gradually became serious.

Time passed little by little, and when the chess game was gradually clear, Gu Yanling knew that he had once again fallen behind.

However, she did not hesitate in her heart, but was a little excited.

In her previous life, because of her identity, there were more and more people willing to play against her, but no one really came to play against her.

Too much flattery, pandering, and flattery, all of which are openly or secretly trying to make her think she is smart, but she doesn't know that even if she wins such a chess game for a lifetime, she will feel bored.

She loves to play, but she hates people who use such elegance as games to serve their ulterior hearts.

Gu Yanling could see that Xiao Yi in front of him was above Xie Yun in chess skills.

is obviously only fourteen years old, which can be seen to be due to talent.

It's a pity, how could such a person end up like that in his previous life.

Gu Yanling couldn't help but raise his head, the person in front of him contemplated slightly, his eyebrows frowned slightly, a pair of inky black eyes quietly reviewed the chess game, his right hand hung on the small chess box in his hand, and a white jade chess piece was sandwiched between his fingers, motionless, as if he was staring in it, not noticing the seeming gaze of the person opposite.

Suddenly-

Xiao Yi's eyes lit up, glowing with the brilliance of willows and flowers, and then the chess pieces fell lightly and stopped in an excellent, almost invulnerable position.

Gu Yanling was pulled back to his senses by this sound, and when he saw the chess piece, the doubt in his heart became stronger and stronger.

"Your Highness, it seems that you are very good with the Nine Emperor Princes. ”

Xiao Yi's lips, which were originally slightly raised because he won the chess game, were slightly stunned, and then nodded and said "um" lightly.

"Although the Nine Emperor Uncles are elders, because they are only a few months older than me, they say-"

Xiao Yi pondered for a moment, and then smiled faintly: "It's better to say that we are more like brothers." ”

Gu Yanling couldn't help frowning when she heard this, those things in her previous life couldn't help but come to her mind together, and some doubts that had been held back for a long time didn't know why she wanted to ask them at this moment, but in fact, she had already blurted out.

"Why?"

The girl's sudden raised voice made Xiao Yi stunned slightly, and then she understood, and looked at the girl in front of her curiously.

Only then did Gu Yanling realize that she couldn't hold her breath, and she didn't know why, the atmosphere at that moment might have been too peaceful and harmonious, so that she almost forgot her scruples and suspicions.

It was she who was careless.

Sensing Xiao Yi's scrutinizing gaze, Gu Yanling felt a little annoyed in his heart, but he was afraid that the person on the other side was already doubting his intentions.

I didn't expect that I had lived so long, and I had become a little girl who couldn't hold back.

Could it be that she is really too deep into the drama and takes herself seriously as a twelve-year-old girl.

Gu Yanling couldn't help but want to make amends, and took back Fang Cai's words, but Xiao Yi smiled slightly.

Does the atmosphere in front of her mean that she is interested in inquiring about his story and wants to understand him?

Thinking of this, although he tried his best to be calm, Xiao Yi still couldn't hide the joy in his eyes, but how did he know that the girl opposite was completely misinterpreting and misunderstanding his gaze.

When Gu Yanling was about to speak, he saw that the young man in front of him suddenly withdrew his gaze, and then glanced at Tan Mo beside him silently.

Tan Mo almost understood the moment he met his gaze, gave Libi and Jiang Zhu a look, and was about to retreat away with the people in the courtyard.

Libi and Jiang Zhu have always only listened to Gu Yanling, where they are willing to respond, they naturally look at Gu Yanling motionlessly, which makes Tan Mo anxious.

Gu Yanling naturally noticed this subtle change, but in an instant, she understood that Xiao Yi in front of her had something to say to her, so she glanced at Xiao Yi, and then nodded her jaw slightly, and then Libi and Jiang Zhu obediently retreated to a distance with Tan Mo, although they could see the two people sitting opposite each other under the grape trellis from a distance, they could no longer hear what they were saying.

However, Libi and Jiang Zhu never had curiosity about things they shouldn't know, so they lowered their eyes quite calmly, looking polite and polite.

And the servants of the Xie family are also extremely knowledgeable, naturally they know what to know and what not to know, and they are also taking care of themselves at the moment, and they have not had the slightest intention of eavesdropping.

Tan Mo on the side of such a scene couldn't help but be slightly surprised and admired, worthy of the Xie family, it was the girl of the twelve-year-old girl's family, and these servants who served in the outer courtyard were so polite, no wonder it was a century-old family.

When Tan Mo finished pondering, he turned around, only to see that the vines were quiet and abnormal under the green grape trellis, the young man was handsome, the girl was full of eyebrows, sitting silently, looking harmonious and safe from a distance, it was like a painting, such a person, even if he walked in the crowd, he could not help but distinguish from others.

Tan Mo couldn't help but sigh in his heart, there was no one more worthy of His Royal Highness than this Gu Chang girl.

……

Under this grape trellis is even quieter than Fang Cai, Gu Yanling glanced at the person in front of her, and couldn't help but guess what she wanted to say to her.

Xiao Yi's eyes happened to meet the girl's gaze, but the smile on his lips gradually faded a lot, and then he rubbed the tea cup lightly in his hand, but a pair of eyes drifted into the distance, as if he was looking at something, and as if he hadn't seen anything.

"In the past, when my mother was just pregnant with me, it happened that Cheng Niangniang, who had not yet been promoted to concubine, was also pregnant, only one month older than me, so gradually, my mother became acquainted with Cheng Niangniang, and often walked together to greet her——"

The young man's words fell into his ears gently, Gu Yanling couldn't help but raise his head, the eyes of the person in front of him were far away, and the memory seemed to have fallen into the distance, muttering softly and eloquently.

"Later—"

Xiao Yi suddenly retracted his eyes, there was a hint of indescribable strangeness between his eyebrows, his eyes fell quietly on the chess game, and he continued.

"One day, my mother and Cheng Niangniang met to visit the garden, and when they went to the floating wave bridge, my mother accidentally stepped on the air and was about to fall off the bridge. ”

Hearing this, Gu Yanling's eyes couldn't help but be shocked, and he looked fixedly at the young man in front of him with an obscure expression, and then frowned slightly.

Once upon a time in the palace for decades, she never knew about it!

In order to save her mother, Cheng Niangniang held her mother's hand in time and blocked her mother's falling body with her own body, but the incident happened suddenly, in a panic, her mother was pulled, but Cheng Niangniang couldn't bear the strength and fell into the water from the bridge. ”

Gu Yanling's pupils shrank, and he only felt a bang in his head.

She noticed that Xiao Yi couldn't help but clench her hand while speaking at this moment, and paused imperceptibly before gradually speaking.

"The mother was only frightened that day, and it did not hurt the womb, but when Cheng Niangniang was rescued, she shocked the fetus in her womb, and even colded the mother, but the seven-month-old body was born prematurely. ”

"At that time, the mother who delivered the baby in the palace found dystocia when she delivered the baby for Cheng Niangniang, and then the imperial grandfather called all the doctors in the hospital to go, but found that the fetus could not fall, if it dragged on any longer, not only the fetus would suffocate in the womb and die, but even the adults could not save it, and then there was no way, the imperial doctor had to propose to the imperial grandfather——"
