Chapter 116: The Lady's Innocence Is With Me

But she clearly remembered that Yueying said just now that Concubine Ming was with the princess of Nanzhaoguo, so to speak......

Gu Qi looked at the white-faced boy carefully, but found that the little boy was also looking at her with a wicked smile, it seemed that her guess should be correct.

"So what?" Xia Jin snorted unresponsively, looking at the sissy with a little disdain, and didn't seem to have discovered the truth.

"It's nothing, my son thought that Xia Xiangye's son should be as smart and intelligent as Xiangye, but when I see you, tsk......" The white-faced little brother glanced at him with disgust, and the meaning of his words was self-evident.

Xia Jin was about to be furious, but was interrupted by Concubine Ming's "giggle" laughter: "If you young people have something to say, we'll talk about it later, this palace is here to ask the prince about something." As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Mu Guihong.

"Mother, please speak."

"But the prince wants to continue to take the three tests?"

Mu Guihong glanced at Gu Qi without a trace, and then bowed to Concubine Ming with a firm look in his eyes: "Exactly, I don't know what advice Niangniang has?" ”

"I can't talk about advice, but since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has chosen the three tests, he should know the significance of this test, and it must not be regarded as child's play."

"Erchen has never ...... It's never been child's play. Mu Guihong's face wrinkled imperceptibly, because he noticed that the girl's face seemed to be a little stiff.

"So...... Very good! Concubine Ming's eyebrows swept over everyone, and she took the expressions of several of them in her eyes one by one: "Even so, there is nothing to say in this palace, Nalan, let's go." ”

After that, he led the white-faced little brother to the outside of the East Palace, but when the little brother passed by Xia Jin, he actually grimaced at him with a wicked smile.

Xia Jin looked at this childish "sissy" speechlessly, not knowing what to say.

It was only when they sent all the concubines of Ming Guifei away that Mu Guihong and Xia Jin found that Gu Qi had long been gone in the courtyard.

"Moonorie, where has the girl gone?" Mu Guihong asked the maid who was temporarily serving Gu Qi.

Yueying thought for a while and said, "The girl said that she had something to do, so she left first, but I think her direction should be to the study." ”

Mu Guihong frowned imperceptibly and looked at Xia Jin on the side: "If Gongzi Jin is fine, go to the side hall to drink tea first, and I'll go see her." ”

"I ...... too"

Originally, he also wanted to say that he would go and take a look, but when he saw the prince's cold eyes, he still stepped back imperceptibly.

Yueying also stood up at the right time, smiled at Xia Jin and said, "Young Master Jin, please go to the side hall for tea." ”

"Okay-" Xia Jin pursed her lips weakly, and then followed Yueying reluctantly.

Mu Guihong took steady steps, pushed open the door of the study, and saw Gu Qi on the desk of the study, not knowing what was written.

“…… Uh, Qiqi, what are you doing? Suddenly came in, Mu Guihong didn't know what to say.

Gu Qi ignored him, still sketching on the paper, Mu Guihong tilted his head to look over, and saw the words "Tianxianglou", "Oiran", "Little Finger" and so on on the paper.

"Qiqi, what are you doing here?" Mu Guihong raised his eyebrows inexplicably, blocking in front of her, so that she couldn't ignore his existence.

Gu Qi couldn't, so he had to put down the brush in his hand, looked at him expressionlessly and said, "I met someone in the East Market today, do you know Yu Chaoyang?" ”

"Yu Chaoyang?" Mu Guihong dragged his chin with one hand, thought for a moment, and said, "Are you talking about someone from the old general's family?" ”

"Exactly." Gu Qi nodded, looked at him and said: "This Yu Chaoyang is the grandson of the old general's family, it is said that he was sentenced to behead because he brutally killed the Oiran of Tianxianglou, and the evidence is conclusive." ”

Gu Qi briefly told Zongzi about the news he heard today, but saw that his good-looking sword eyebrows wrinkled slightly, looked at her motionlessly and said, "But when I look at Qiqi's expression, I don't seem to think so?" ”

"Hmm." Gu Qi nodded and continued: "I don't dare to say the rest, but I believe that this person is wronged!" ”

"How do you judge?"

"My eyes."

Mu Guihong looked at the woman with a firm look in front of him and said, "I know, then Qiqi wants me to help you?" ”

Speaking of this, Gu Qi smiled embarrassedly, like a child who had done something wrong, and stuck out his tongue embarrassedly: "I was in a hurry today, and I took the token you gave me to suspend that person's punishment, but...... His case was decided by Yin of Fengjing Prefecture, and it is said that it is difficult to overturn the case, but I really judged that this person is innocent, so I ......"

Gu Qi lowered her head a little ashamedly, although she also knew that her willfulness would cause him a lot of trouble, but she just couldn't help it.

"So, you want me to save his life and overturn the case for him?"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is worthy of being His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he immediately grasped the point, Gu Qi grinned and nodded vigorously.

"It's okay for me to help him, but he's not related to me, why should I help him?" Mu Guihong's face suddenly changed, and a touch of unseen cunning crossed his eyes.

Gu Qi pursed her lips, knowing that her cute zongzi was gone, and now in front of her was the fox of Hongguoguo.

"That...... I'll be honest with you, if you're willing to help, you'll not only get a Tiger General, but you'll also ...... And ......"

"And what?" Mu Guihong asked with a wicked smile.

Gu Qi glared at him angrily, and waved his little fist angrily: "And I won't be angry with you!" ”

"Oh? So the lady was giving birth to me just now? Why? Is it because of that Nanzhao princess? As long as Mu Guihong changed her name to Niangzi, the tone of the whole person became smooth, and the image of the most noble and majestic prince immediately disappeared.

"No, no, why should I be angry!?" Gu Qi retorted.

But seeing Mu Guihong on the side, he smiled even more energetically, and generally hooked Gu Qi's smooth chin and said, "Lady, do you know that you look very good-looking when you are vinegared!" ”

Vinegar, is she really vinegar?

Gu Qi frowned slightly, opened Mu Guihong's hand, and his little face became red: "Who is jealous?" Why should I eat your vinegar! You just say you can't save it, don't talk nonsense with me! ”

Seeing Gu Qi, he was almost annoyed, Mu Guihong laughed twice, and said, "Help, the lady has spoken, even if the husband loses his life, he will come back, right?" ”

"Who's your lady? Don't you talk about it here, ruin my innocence, I'm still waiting to get married? Gu Qi looked at him and rolled his eyes.

But seeing that Mu Guihong suddenly became serious, he looked at her without blinking and said, "Lady, who are you going to marry?" As early as when you were in the town, you were my lady, you have to know that a good woman does not serve her second husband, and besides, your innocence is given to me, where do you still have innocence? ”

"Roll !!"
