Chapter 67: The Prince's Side Concubine

A good night's sleep without dreams.

The first rays of morning light of the next day sprinkled all over the earth, lazy red makeup, idle hair bun, after cleaning up, refreshed Gu Qianyan, came to the courtyard to play with flowers and plants.

Luping, who was sent to inquire about the news, returned to the center of Yalan and saw such a scene-

A woman in a lotus-blue water-sleeved robe, holding a pair of silver scissors, carefully trimming the branches and leaves of the orchid, her side face is more and more white and soft under the outline of the hazy morning light, and she can even see the subtle fluff, with a smile on her face, her eyebrows are like a quiet woman.

"The master is really good-looking." Lu Ping called softly, her eyes revealing a bit of pride.

"You girl, you're used to flamboyance." Gu Qianyan rolled up his sleeves and washed his hands, then sat back on the stool, and gently stroked the orchid petals with his slender hands, the pink petals, and the white fingertips, reflecting each other, it can really be said that the orchids on the human face reflect each other.

She raised her face and glanced at Lu Ping, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said, "I asked you to inquire about the news, how are you doing?" ”

"It's all on the slave!" Lu Ping straightened her chest, her eyes sparkled, obviously because she smelled the gossip and said excitedly: "Last night, the prince stayed at Concubine Chu's place, and he didn't leave until dawn to go to the early court. ”

Hearing this, Gu Qianyan was not surprised, but raised his eyebrows slightly.

Chu Jiaorou, whether it is her appearance or talent, among them are the top among them, and she has a little daughter's cuteness, not to mention that she also has the backer of General Pingxi, so it is reasonable for the prince to take care of her.

For the prince, who has read all the beauties in the world, this coquettishness is not a major feature that attracts him.

And with Qi Hongshan's spoiled temperament, on the night of entering the palace, the prince didn't go to her room. She has been pampered since she was a child, and she couldn't accept such a huge gap for a while, and she smashed the bottle and the bowl, just to get angry.

"It's good luck for her to be delicate. Presumably, the prince is the beloved person she misses. Gu Tianyan said without raising his head, understated, and smiled.

Anyway, she didn't plan to stay in this palace to intrigue, but she was still caught in the whirlpool, and it was the right way to protect herself at the moment.

There have long been contradictions within the Qi family, and there is a faint tendency of sabre-rattling, but the twists and turns of the Qi family are definitely more than one grade worse than those in the palace!

The palace is as deep as the sea, far more complicated than the Qi family.

Lu Ping's eyes widened, obviously she didn't expect her to be so calm, the little maid suddenly became anxious, and shouted: "Miss, you are the prince Liangdi now, you are no longer Yunying's unmarried girl, you should also make more plans for yourself." ”

Gu Tianyan's movements in her hand froze, and she understood Lu Ping's words.

Now that she is the prince's person, her fate in the East Palace is all in the hands of the prince's thoughts.

It also means that she will compete with many women for favor, just to win that person's momentary look back and a moment of tenderness.

Is this kind of life really what she wants?

Gu Tianyan exhaled a breath of turbidity, and said earnestly: "Luping, the water in this palace is deep, I think it is better to be at peace with what happens." ”

didn't get the answer she wanted, Lu Ping pursed her lips and said, "By the way, Yang Pinglan, the crown prince and concubine in the East Palace, invited all the newcomers to go to her palace for a small gathering, does the master want to go?" ”

"It's nothing to do anyway, just take a walk!" Gu Tianyan groaned slightly, and his eyes flashed.

The appointed time was not in time, after lunch, she changed into clothes, and the scorching sun hung high above her head, Gu Tianyan and Chu Jiaorou, who came to find her, went to Yang Pinglan's bedroom at the same time.

Yang Pinglan, as the crown prince's concubine, although she is at the same level as Chu Jiaorou, her qualifications far exceed Chu Jiaorou, so her bedroom is also extraordinarily splendid.

The turquoise glazed tiles, the black black jade floor tiles, and the inlaid with several rare cat's eye gems, show the owner's favor even more.

When Gu Tianyan stepped into her palace, there were only two people, she pulled Chu Jiaorou to sit down in the corner, the two of them laughed and laughed, and waited for a while, Qi Hongshan was late.

"It's all there." In the middle seat, a woman in a rose and purple dress has a calm but amiable expression.

She had a beautiful face, and when she smiled, a shallow pear swirl welled up on her lips, which looked particularly intimate.

She is Yang Pinglan, and she glanced at Qi Hongshan unhurriedly at this moment, obviously remembering this Chenghui who was late for a cup of tea.

Qi Hongshan didn't notice it, and after looking around at the furnishings in the house, a dark glow of envy and jealousy appeared in her eyes. She also wanted to live in such a palatial palace, enjoying the countless maids who came and went at a moment's notice.

When her gaze turned to Chu Jiaorou, after a moment's pause, her gaze became cold and gloomy. A pretty face also turned red with jealousy. Why! What qualifications does this woman have to take the lead in serving and snatching her most beloved prince!

Gu Tianyan glanced at her mockingly, with a smile on his lips, and said in his heart: Could it be that yesterday's lesson was not enough?

Liu Hongshan thought that she was embarrassed in front of everyone yesterday, and made a big ugly, and even caused the family ugliness to be publicized, so that the huge palace learned about the erosive and debauched life of her brother Qi Lingyang, and her heart was itching with hatred.

Now she can't speak clearly, and Qi Lingyang even wrote a letter, criticizing her every word.

Qi Hongshan was so angry that she was annoyed for a long time, and was poked in the foot again, her face became gloomy, and she snorted coldly, "Isn't it just that I went to bed once, I see, some people's tails are afraid that they will be warped to the sky!" ”

This meant something, and it was obviously aimed at Chu Jiaorou.

As the master, Yang Pinglan, with a hint of interest in her eyes, took a sip of the tea leaves, a pair of beautiful eyes like cold smoke, Ying Ying looked at Chu Jiaorou in front of her, and said in a coquettish voice: "I heard that after you accepted the favor yesterday, the reward flowed into your Yingjiao Pavilion like flowing water." ”

Today, all the newcomers are gathered here, and she has no intention of sowing discord in her heart. And Chu Jiaorou is not only tall, but also has an outstanding personality, after Chenghuan yesterday, today there are a lot of rewards sent into her palace. Three thousand taels of silver, dozens of satins, and one palace costume in spring, summer, autumn and winter......

There are many rewards, and even she, an old man in the palace, will inevitably be red-eyed. At this moment, I couldn't help but follow lightly.

Chu Jiaorou's face was slightly stunned, yesterday the prince stayed in her courtyard, she was full of moisture, her face was radiant, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of spring, and her eyes were a little charming.

It's just that at this moment, in the face of the obvious difficulties between the two, Chu Jiaorou's face turned pale and she bit her lower lip, she was inconvenient to refute because of Yang Pinglan's identity, so she had to glare at Qi Hongshan fiercely.

"Yo, why does the air smell of vinegar so much?" Gu Tianyan covered his lips and smiled, his expression was lazy and arbitrary, "I'm afraid that some people can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour!" ”

As she spoke, she glanced at Qi Hongshan, and the meaning of pointing was already very obvious.

If people don't offend me, I don't offend anyone. But yesterday she and Qi Hongshan broke up unhappily, and because of Qi Lingyang, the two naturally looked at each other and hated each other.

Seeing that his friend Chu Jiaorou had been wronged, Gu Tianyan immediately fought back.

"It's just that he has a good family background and a good background, what is there to be proud of?" Qi Hongshan gritted her teeth and snorted arrogantly, "If I also have General Pingxi as a backing, I'm afraid that I will be the one who has received a large number of rewards today!" ”
