Chapter 34: Stalemate

Facing a table of delicacies, Long Yuting didn't have an appetite, Gu Tingcheng sandwiched a lot of dishes for him, and he swallowed it like chewing wax. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

She felt more and more that the situation was wrong, and while paying attention to Long Yuting's expression, she asked, "Lord Wang, what happened?" ”

He was still smiling reluctantly to hide his thoughts, but after she asked this question, Long Yuting's expression froze, like a pool of clear water suddenly frozen.

"It's nothing, Allure, don't think about it." His hand ran lightly through the ends of her hair, moving as gently as he normally would.

But Gu Tingcheng still felt something unusual, something bad must have happened, but Long Yuting was hiding it from her and not letting her know, but what happened, she wanted to know, her bright eyes stared at Long Yuting, and he deliberately turned his face away and didn't look at her.

After dinner, Long Yuting also changed his normal state and did not go to the study, but walked around the palace with her, tonight the moon is bright and the stars are scarce, that round of bright moon reminds Gu Qingcheng of the modern days, it has been a few months since then, everything around her is different from modern times, except for this round of bright moon, she looked at the moon and suddenly calmed down.

He held her hand and walked all the way to the courtyard, his figure looked tall in the moonlight, which made Gu Qingcheng very steady, she smiled and leaned her head on his shoulder.

The moonlight was just right, a gust of wind was blowing, and the faint fragrance of flowers wafted from the depths of the courtyard, Gu Tingcheng's nose was sensitive, and he instantly smelled the fragrance of osmanthus in late autumn.

She raised her face, the expression on her beautiful face was very happy, and she said slowly to Long Yuting: "After a while, I will pick some osmanthus flowers from the tree and make them into osmanthus cake and osmanthus wine, osmanthus wine tastes very good, and has a mellow fragrance, if Your Majesty does not dislike it, I will also give him half of my wine." ”

Gu Qingcheng rarely drinks alcohol, but she likes to drink the wine she brews, and making wine from grapes and osmanthus is also one of her hobbies.

Looking at her bright face and listening to her gentle words, Long Yuting's heart was sour, even if he tried his best this time, he would keep Gu Tingcheng by his side, that fool wanted to get her, don't even think about it.

"Allure." Long Yuting once again brought her into his arms, the taste on her body was so luscious, even more intoxicating than this osmanthus tree, he wrapped one hand around her waist, and clasped her palm-sized face plate with the other, and kissed it gently.

His kiss made her indulge in it like some kind of attachment, Gu Qingcheng closed her eyes, only feeling that the man's mellow breath occupied her heart inch by inch, she responded to his enthusiasm with a smile, since returning to the palace, although Long Yuting doted on her, but rarely acted intimately, he seemed to be a humble gentleman, suppressing his desire for her.

He once said to her: "Allure, before we get married, let's not be too intimate, after all, there are so many people in the palace watching, I'm afraid it will damage your reputation." ”

She is a modern person, of course she doesn't care about these, as long as Long Yuting loves her, and she loves him, in modern terms, they are a couple, even if they are intimate, there is nothing wrong with it.

After experiencing the portrait turmoil, Long Yuting no longer had as many scruples as before, and he directly revealed his love for her.

Under the bright moonlight, her figure is intertwined with him, like a perfect landscape painting, slowly spreading in front of him, the scene at this moment is so beautiful, but unfortunately tranquility is always the prelude to a storm.

Mu Yun happened to pass by the courtyard, and just happened to see the scene of hugging, he hid behind an ancient tree, looking at all this with sharp eyes, he said to himself: "Lord Wang, why don't you want to listen to me, the more beautiful the woman is, the more poisonous the flower, I am afraid that she will drag you into the abyss from which you will never recover." ”

He also once fell in love with a woman, but it was this love that pushed him into the abyss of no return, and was betrayed by the person he loved, and the pain was really unforgettable.

Mu Yun learned about it the next day, and the matter of King Anqing's selection of portraits spread among the courtiers, although he had no official position, he was well-connected, and soon learned the news, Gu Qingcheng's portrait was chosen by King Anqing.

In his opinion, this is undoubtedly a good thing, the regent can finally get rid of Gu Tingcheng, and the red face and troubles can be led to the other side, he didn't ask the regent directly about Gu Tingcheng's affairs, he waited for the regent to ask him.

It didn't take long for Long Yuting to really come and ask him about Gu Qingcheng, Long Yuting frowned, the look in his eyes was very complicated, and he said softly: "I came to you to discuss how to deal with King Anqing, you think it is better to choose a noble daughter for him to be the princess." ”

"Lord Wang." Mu Yun was very calm, and he replied lightly, "I suggest that I obey King Anqing's request and give Gu Qingcheng to him as a princess." ”

Hearing only a bang, Long Yuting's hand slapped heavily on the table, he stared at Mu Yun angrily, and reprimanded: "This king is here to ask you for a solution, not to listen to you say this, I will never send Gu Qingcheng out, she is my unmarried wife." ”

He said his thoughts to Mu Yun very clearly, if Mu Yun continued to say things that were unfavorable to Allure, he felt that he might punish Mu Yun severely today.

Mu Yun's expression did not panic in the slightest, he stroked his beard slowly and said, "Lord Wang, have you thought about the consequences?" How were the ministers forced to leave Liangdu by those vassal kings, if it weren't for the prince protecting me, my life would almost be buried in the hands of the vassal kings, the military power in their hands, the territory they owned, is a major threat to the current imperial court, today is different from the past, the vassal kings have long been eyeing the royal family. ”

Long Yuting's face became stiff at that moment, the light in his eyes was extremely sharp, Mu Yun's words pierced his vital point, and it was also the aspect he had been worried about, the strength of those vassal kings should not be underestimated, the ambitions of the vassal kings had swelled dramatically in recent decades, and the royal family was almost uncontrollable, if there was a conflict with them at this time, it was unknown what the result would be.

He closed his eyes, and even his breathing became heavy, with Beichen on one side and his Allure on the other, no matter who he chose, the other he couldn't let go.

Mu Yun saw that Long Yuting seemed to be a little shaken, and he continued to say in a calm tone: "Lord, if the vassal kings unite in this matter, we have no choice at all, if it is only the decision of King Anqing alone, we can still Zhou Xuan, how things develop, it depends on the next few days." ”

"You go down first, let me think about it." Long Yuting arched his hand and motioned for Mu Yun to go out, and he fell into deep thought with his head on his back.
