Chapter Ninety-Four: You're Bold
The garden is a relatively open public space, so although the scenery is not very beautiful, there are a lot of pedestrians.
When they heard the news that Gu Ling was pregnant, Gu Qianyan was chatting with Chu Jiaorou, and both of them were stunned at the time: they both realized that this news might have an adverse impact on the crown prince Feng Jinglan.
Gu Tianyan thought of Feng Jinglan's possible reaction, so as not to become a fish in the pond, he brought Luping to the garden to relax.
Chu Jiaorou wanted to comfort Feng Jinglan, who was in a bad mood, but she touched her nose.
In the garden, Gu Tianyan saw the absent-minded Feng Jinglan from a distance, and when he saw him sending the people around him away, he thought that he had discovered himself, and his heart was beating wildly.
After a night of deep talk and getting along, Gu Tianyan felt that he didn't hate her so much, and she didn't resist him as much as she did at the beginning.
In any case, he didn't force her body, at least it shows that he still has some merit.
Just as he was thinking about how to face him, Gu Tianyan realized that he was walking to another place, and it turned out that the person he noticed was not her at all, but the Gu Lingxin who had just been rumored to be pregnant.
A trace of loss flashed in the corners of Gu Tianyan's eyes, and he secretly thought: Is this a coincidental meeting, or did they make an appointment to meet here?
She hesitated for a moment, but decided to follow over to have a look, and whispered to Lu Ping beside her: "You go around and have a look, and if you meet anyone, come and tell me!" ”
In the bamboo bushes in the dark, Gu Qianyan looked ahead from afar. His expression was gloomy, his eyes were cold, and his lowered gaze was dyed with a little dark and inexplicable brilliance.
And she looked for it. It was the two figures, a man and a woman.
The man is long and handsome, with a jade face and a golden crown, like a proud bamboo in the wind, and like the frost on the mountain that day, unattainable and unreachable; The woman gave birth to a face that was as soft as water, and she looked like a top race fairy. With pink face and peach cheeks, picturesque eyebrows, she looks like a lady who has walked out of an ink painting. Every word and deed is soaked in elegance.
The two of them stand together, like a natural picture, like a pair of enviable beauties.
The so-called match made in heaven, the golden boy and the girl. Presumably so.
Gu Tianyan bent the corners of his lips upwards with some self-deprecation. Gu Lingxin's gentleness and grace revealed from her bones are beautiful and moving, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for her to catch up with her.
She will never become a woman like Gu Lingxin.
Unconsciously, her half-constricted eyelashes were stained with wetness, and the gently trembling water droplets gradually blurred her vision.
Gu Tianyan waved his hand to wipe away the little water marks from the corners of his eyes, and raised his eyes again to listen to their conversation.
"I heard you're pregnant? How long has the baby been pregnant? Feng Jinglan gently supported her. He was tall in front of Gu Lingxin, but he bent his back slightly, and his eyes had always been covered with heavy ice and snow. At this moment, the ice melts and the snow melts, blooming with endless tenderness.
Gu Lingxin heard this, and her slender hand stroked her belly, but through a thin layer of clothes, she seemed to still be able to feel the pulse of the fetus in her womb.
Her whole body was suddenly filled with the brilliance of motherhood, her eyes were dyed with a little smile, and she said with a decent smile: "I was diagnosed a few days ago, and the doctor said that the child has been two months old. ”
The surging maternal love in her body, and the love for the child between her words, suddenly deeply pierced Feng Jinglan's eyes.
He tugged at the corners of his lips, his lips trembled slightly, and it took a long time before he squeezed out a sentence: "Fourth brother, he ...... If you are really blessed, then I will congratulate you on your happiness. ”
Gu Lingxin's expression also stagnated slightly, and he said lightly for a while: "Thank you, His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
The sentence 'His Royal Highness the Prince' made Feng Jinglan's heart ache faintly.
He looked at the face of the woman in front of him with fascination, snow-skinned black hair, black eyes and red lips, still the beautiful face he was familiar with, the years have not left any traces on it, she is still as fresh and lovely as cardamom years.
But such a beautiful woman is already a wife.
Can the past of him and her only become a piece of the past after all?
Feng Jinglan's hand holding her body trembled slightly, and the bulging green tendons showed his heart that was by no means calm at the moment.
He looked at it fixedly for a long time, and then said with a wry smile: "Between you and me, when did you become so unfamiliar?" ”
Looking at the top of her jet-black hair when she hung her head, the slender swan-like neck, his heart was stunned, as if as long as he let go of his hand at this moment, he would never be able to approach her again.
Gu Ling gently broke away from him without a trace, and said softly: "Jinglan, you are still my closest person, but now that I am the fourth princess and princess, you are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, even if you are not unfamiliar, what can you do?" ”
She raised her head slowly, her face was still soft, but her words were very stubborn: "Let it pass, just take it as a joke of youth and frivolity." From now on, you and I will be strangers. ”
Feng Jinglan couldn't help but froze when he heard this, and his tall body trembled involuntarily at this moment. This man, who holds the power of life and death all day long, seems extremely weak and helpless at this moment.
He Shi Jue was so sad that he wanted to smile reluctantly, but he couldn't laugh.
His eyes were filled with deep despair, like a lake in winter, condensed into indestructible ice.
muttered: "Lingxin, I know that I am useless, I didn't keep you and our feelings, but I have already decided to give up the position of prince at that time, why do you still agree to them?" ”
His deep infatuation touched Gu Ling's heart slightly, and even Gu Qianyan in the distance was too moved when he heard it, but it was a pity that it was not her who was willing to give up everything for him.
Gu Ling smiled helplessly and said, "Why do you bother to ask again, knowing it is just adding sadness." ”
"Still won't tell me the truth?" Feng Jinglan said almost hysterically.
Gu Lingxin hesitated for a moment before saying: "I originally wanted to ignore the emperor's will and my father's strict order to fly away with you, but ......" The words at the bottom didn't say anything for a long time.
Feng Jinglan listened to the meaning of her words. She always had him alone in her heart, but for some reason he didn't know, he would agree to marry her fourth brother Feng Jinghuang, who she didn't love. Heartache and excitement said: "But what? ”
After a long time, Gu Lingxin finally couldn't stand Feng Jinglan's questioning, and with an aggrieved look, she said like a cry: "Jinghuang...... Jing Huang, he used medicine to occupy my body......"
"I felt shameless to see you again, so I had to agree to him......"
This sentence was like a hammer, slamming heavily on Feng Jinglan's heart. He couldn't breathe for half the day.
Gu Tianyan was also stunned when she heard this, it turned out that so many things had happened between them, no wonder Feng Jinglan had always been obsessed with her.
At this time. The figure next to her flashed, and Lu Ping, who went out to check, didn't know when she came back, she whispered in Gu Tianyan's ear: "Master, the emperor and the jade concubine." And it seems that the four princes are here......"
Gu Tianyan was shocked: How could they come over? glanced at Feng Jinglan, who was stunned in front of him. Dark Dao: Is it for him?
She didn't have time to think about it and strode towards the two of them, and said with a smile to Gu Ling, who was standing there pitifully: "Fourth Imperial Princess, I heard that you are pregnant, I really want to congratulate you!" As he spoke, he affectionately took her arm.
Before Feng Jinglan could react, the emperor, Yu Guifei, and the fourth prince Feng Jinghuang walked over with a large group of people.
Gu Tianyan and Gu Lingxin hurriedly stepped forward to salute one by one, but Feng Jinglan still didn't come back to his senses, and stood there motionless. It's like a statue.
The emperor looked at Feng Jinglan and didn't blame him. Then he looked at Gu Tianyan in a little surprise and said, "Are you?" How did you end up here? ”
Gu Qianyan saluted respectfully and said: "The concubine is the good lady of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Gu Tianyan, who was accompanying His Royal Highness out for a walk, and happened to meet the fourth imperial concubine on the way, so I chatted with her for a few words." ”
The Emperor nodded lightly and said, "Get up!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Gu Qianyan saved Gu Ling's heart again, and said to Feng Jinghuang with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, I will return your beloved concubine to you now, she is pregnant, you have to take good care of her." ”
Feng Jinghuang looked at her in surprise, came to Feng Jinglan's side, and chuckled: "Thank you for your concern!" ”
Everyone walked through the garden talking and laughing as if nothing had happened.
When they walked away, Gu Tianyan walked to Feng Jinglan, who was still distracted, and said carefully: "His Royal Highness the Prince......
I heard him shout: "What are you calling?" ”
Then I heard him say casually: "Go with the palace!" ”
"Oh!" Gu Tianyan replied softly, and secretly scolded himself: Is it happy to throw him here as a wood?
The two walked in silence for a while, and Feng Jinglan suddenly spoke: "Don't you usually talk a lot, why is this so quiet?" ”
"Woe comes from the mouth, in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, I will only say more and make more mistakes, why bother to be boring!" Gu Tianyan said casually.
Feng Jinglan glanced at her and said, "Since you know, you dare to eavesdrop on us, this palace sees that you are very bold!" ”
"What's the matter, this is not the inner courtyard of the deep palace, it's just passing by occasionally, I haven't heard anything you say!" Gu Tianyan said disapprerovingly.
"For the sake of your good performance, I will spare you this time." Feng Jinglan said thoughtfully.
"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince, for your grace!" It was rare to hear his beautiful words, Gu Tianyan bowed and saluted, thinking to himself, should I tell him that today's incident may not be an accident?
After thinking about it, if he couldn't even think of this, maybe he would have been kicked out of the East Palace a long time ago, so it was better not to meddle in his affairs.
"Qi Hongshan was not killed by this palace, but she died because of this palace, I didn't expect Yu Guifei to make a move so quickly......" Feng Jinglan seemed to say to herself.
Gu Tianyan's heart moved, and listening to the meaning of his words, Qi Hongshan should have been executed by the emperor in order to give an explanation to the crown prince Feng Jinglan.
And the reason why the emperor was able to tolerate Feng Jinglan and confront him in this matter, and even quietly gave him an explanation to appease him, was probably because he once gave Feng Jinglan's favorite Gu Lingxin to the fourth prince Feng Jinghuang, so he felt guilty about him and wanted to compensate him.
Concubine Yu failed to save Qi Hongshan, so she was naturally full of hatred for Feng Jinglan, and it was reasonable to arrange this situation. I just don't know if the four princes, Feng Jinghuang and Gu Lingxin, are also involved, or are they just tools to be used?
If it weren't for her Gu Qianyan seeing the opportunity quickly, letting the emperor and others see Feng Jinglan and Gu Lingxin pulling and pulling, or Gu Lingxin deliberately making a pitiful appearance of being insulted, what kind of storm would be waiting for Feng Jinglan?
Thinking of this possibility, Gu Tianyan was a little scared in her heart, she had an intuition: Gu Lingxin was not as simple and beautiful as she seemed on the surface!
"Feng Jinghuang, you are really too deceitful!" Gu Tianyan was silent for a long time, and another sentence popped out of Feng Jinglan's mouth.
When Feng Jinghuang was about to leave just now, he deliberately stimulated Feng Jinglan with words, undoubtedly wanting him to make a fool of himself in front of everyone, but fortunately, Gu Tianyan tightly held Feng Jinglan's swaggering arm at that time.
Gu Tianyan had many questions in her heart, but she didn't ask anything, she had a lot of things she wanted to say, but she didn't say anything after all.
Although it is said that she is in the East Palace, she will be damaged and prosperous with Feng Jinglan's fate, but even if she says it, he may not listen to it, let alone believe it, so why bother himself?
After accompanying Feng Jinglan for a while, he listened to him and said, "You go back first!" ”
"There are some things that you can do on your own!" Before leaving, Feng Jinglan said this to her again.
Gu Tianyan stood in the wind like a water lotus in full bloom, watching his majestic back gradually disappear, and he lost his mind for a moment. Thinking about it, he was also looking for someone or a place to vent his emotions, but this time he didn't bother with her, and he finally had a little conscience.
Gu Tianyan came to the garden for a walk today to avoid right and wrong, but who wanted to be directly involved in the middle, after this happened, where was he still in the mood to enjoy the scenery, turned around and walked in the direction of Yalanju with Luping.
Along the way, Gu Tianyan was thinking about today's events, thinking about the woman who made Prince Feng Jinglan haunt her dreams.
Gu Lingxin, what kind of person is she, and what does she think?
If she still loved Feng Jinglan deeply, then she shouldn't have told him about being occupied by Feng Jinghuang's medicine, which would only make him more painful, but it would be useless.
If she didn't really love Feng Jinglan, then why did she do it again?
Doing so will only deepen the estrangement between Feng Jinglan and the emperor in Feng Jinglan's heart, and even make brothers, fathers and sons turn against each other, but what good is this for her?
Gu Tianyan only knew that Gu Lingxin was the beloved daughter of Prime Minister Gu Tiandao, and Gu Tiandao seemed to have always had a good official reputation, and the rest was unknown.
She couldn't figure it out for a while, so she didn't bother to think about it anymore.
Regarding what he heard and thought of today, Gu Tianyan decided to let it rot in his stomach and not mention it to anyone. After all, she knew some taboos in the palace, and she would not chew the root of her tongue everywhere and cause trouble for herself and the Gu family for no reason. (To be continued.) )
