Chapter 405: Rival in Love (3)
The two have hugged each other, kissed each other, and I don't know how many times they have done things that are more intimate than holding hands. But somehow, just holding her hand so simply made her heart beat faster and flustered, her whole body was soft, and she even lost her fingertips......
All the qiē around her was as blurry as a phantom, only the hand that held her tightly was so real and warm.
Ye Qinglan couldn't help but glance up at Gu Xinian. Under the bright sunshine, his handsome face is so soft, and his eyes are even more gentle and intoxicating, like a warm spring breeze slowly blowing into his heart, swinging thousands of tenderness......
Gu Xinian lowered his head, looking at Ye Qinglan's pretty face and the shyness and charm that was inadvertently revealed, his heart fluttered, and he could hardly restrain the surging tide of love in his heart. I couldn't help but take a step closer.
Ye Qinglan was startled, finally came back to her senses, and glared at him fiercely. Do you really want to be a big joke in the palace?
Gu Xinian was dumbfounded and smiled self-deprecatingly. It seems that his self-control is not as good as he thought......
Gu Xinian finally let go of his hand and took two steps away. Although they still walk side by side, they have lost their original intimacy and ambiguity.
Coincidentally, at this moment, the prince and Shen Qiuyu stopped and turned their heads to look at each other. In front of the crown prince, Shen Qiuyu had already cleaned up her chaotic thoughts, and there was a decent smile on her lips. His eyes faintly swept over the pair of jade people standing side by side, and his heart sank suddenly.
The tenderness in Gu Xinian's eyes had not faded, and the corners of his lips were raised, obviously in a very happy mood. This happy mood...... Is it all because of Ye Qinglan beside him?
Shen Qiuyu's heart was suddenly full of sourness and bitterness, and he forced himself to look away. Because she was afraid that she would lose her temper if she looked at it again......
The prince glanced at the two of them, smiled and teased, "Cousin." You and Miss Ye Shi are really a good match. "The man is slender and jade, handsome and incomparable, and the woman is delicate and beautiful, gentle and lovely. Stand side by side on clean trails surrounded by lush trees and flowers. It's like a beautiful picture.
Ye Qinglan pretended to be embarrassed and lowered her head, Gu Xinian naturally didn't need to pretend, but smiled: "Cousin Lan is thin-skinned, don't scare her." The tenderness and compassion in the words are by no means pretended.
Shen Qiuyu didn't want to mention what it was like in her heart, all kinds of unwilling envy, jealousy and hatred!
But the prince smiled very happily. As a man, he could naturally see that Gu Xinian really cared about this Ye Qinglan. This is really good news for him. As long as Gu Xinian has a sweetheart, it is impossible to worry about Shen Qiuyu anymore! And Shen Qiuyu will also cut off all worries because of this......
Think so. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in a better mood, and said with a smile: "There are a lot of colorful koi fish in this pool, come and enjoy it." ”
Gu Xinian responded with a smile and thoughtfully advised: "Cousin Lan, the stone slab by the pool is a little slippery, don't stand too close." Obviously, he deliberately made a gentle and considerate appearance, which not only responded to Shen Qiuyu, but also reassured the prince.
Ye Qinglan blushed very cooperatively, and then looked back with sparkling eyes.
The prince only felt goosebumps all over his body. Coughed heavily. Is it true that he doesn't save zài?
Gu Xinian was well versed in the truth that too much was too much to stop, and quickly glanced at Ye Qinglan. The two of them had a tacit understanding and looked away.
Next, of course, it's time to pretend to be idle and appreciate the koi. The prince and Gu Xinian chatted casually, and naturally mentioned the affairs in the court. There was concern in his tone: "...... There is still half a month to start harvesting the fields. The eyes of the big guy are staring at the third emperor brother, and I heard that he plans to go to the county seat of the pilot in person, so that all the fields and fortunes of this year are collected safe and sound. "If this is a success. The third prince will be in the limelight for a while, and the emperor will pay more attention to him. It's very bad for yourself.
Gu Xinian's eyes flashed. smiled faintly: "Cousin, don't worry, I've already arranged it." This time it will definitely be a big 'surprise' for him. ”
The prince was refreshed when he heard this, and was about to ask questions, but Gu Xinian glanced at him. It's better to talk about this kind of thing in private. In front of the two women, it's better to say less.
The prince laughed dumbly, and teased in a low voice: "I really didn't expect you to be so sorry for the fragrance and jade." "Come to think of it, it's really a shame to talk about such a topic in such a beautiful moment of relaxation and tranquility.
Gu Xinian knew that he had misunderstood what he meant, so he didn't explain much, just smiled faintly. In fact, the person he really has to watch out for is Shen Qiuyu. In her previous life, she carried such a big heel, and she must not repeat the same mistakes in this life. Therefore, whenever he talked about court affairs with the prince, he insisted on talking in private, and never gave Shen Qiuyu a chance to eavesdrop. And often told the prince not to pass on the six ears. As long as the prince has not arrived home in a daze, some confidential things will never be known to Shen Qiuyu......
If you don't talk about court affairs, you can only talk about elegant things like Fengyue poems and books.
Ye Qinglan was not very interested in the topic of discussion between the two men, and stood by the pool to admire the colorful koi in the pool intently. The water is crystal clear, and a few colorful koi fish swim leisurely in the water, which is indeed beautiful.
Shen Qiuyu stood by Ye Qinglan's side, and the corner of her eyes kept paying attention to Ye Qinglan's every move. Seeing her leisurely admiring the koi, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes.
This jealousy flashed, and even though it was hidden in his eyes, Shen Qiuyu let out a light smile and said: "This kind of koi is a tribute, very precious and rare. Even in the palace, there are only a few of them. A few days ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince specially went to find two for me to keep in the house. If you like it, I'll have someone give you one in a few days. ”
What is this? Is it a demonstration or a show-off?
Ye Qinglan's eyes flashed slightly, and she responded with a smile: "This can't be helped." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince specially gave the koi to Concubine Shen, how can I win people's love. After a pause, he pretended to be envious and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really good to Concubine Shen. It's really envious of others. ”
Shen Qiuyu's mood after being repeatedly stimulated and hit was really much more relaxed, and she smiled elegantly and reservedly: "You don't have to envy me, you will also have your sweetheart with you in the future." Maybe he'll be better for you. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this is a false polite statement.
But Ye Qinglan was stunned and took it seriously, and responded shyly and happily: "I think so too!" ”
Shen Qiuyu: "......"
In terms of tongue and cheekiness, she can't even beat it! What's even more depressing is that the crown prince and Gu Xinian are on the side, she can't fight back at all, and she can't even reveal a trace of strange feelings......
Sure enough, the prince seemed to be chatting with Gu Xinian intently, but he had actually been paying attention to the movements here. Glancing at it from time to time, Shen Qiuyu had to take a deep breath and squeeze out a calm smile.
Next, Shen Qiuyu was much more honest and calm, and did not make any more provocative remarks.
Ye Qinglan secretly regretted. Before she was addicted, Shen Qiuyu actually died down! It can also be seen from this that Shen Qiuyu is indeed a woman with strong self-control. Being able to calm and sober up in time when you are carried away by jealousy is not something that ordinary people can do.
Moreover, from her expression today, it is enough to see that she has no end to Gu Xinian......
Ye Qinglan smiled casually, a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes. If Shen Qiuyu can recognize the reality, she should keep her distance from her. If Shen Qiuyu was still thinking of finding a chance to deal with her, she would never mind giving some color to the other party.
Shen Qiuyu and Gu Xinian's previous things are forgotten, but from now on, no one will want to covet her man!
After staying by the pool for about half an hour, a palace maid came. Empress Gu asked the prince and others to return to Fengyi Palace.
The prince smiled and said, "Okay, let's go over." ”
In the Fengyi Palace, the crown princess and Concubine Lin were smiling and gossiping with Queen Gu. When the prince and his party came in, everyone's eyes looked at them in unison. Of course, the focus of his eyes was on the smiling girl behind Gu Xinian.
Ye Qinglan was very calm and calm, allowing everyone to look at her.
It is conceivable that as soon as the news of entering the palace today spreads, there will be a bunch of surprised eyes and questions waiting for her. Now this battle should be rehearsed in advance.
Empress Gu first asked the prince a few words cordially, and then chatted with Gu Xinian. However, his attitude towards Shen Qiuyu was much colder. As for Ye Qinglan, that's not to mention. Empress Gu basically didn't look at her much.
…… Thinking about it, Queen Gu summoned her to the palace completely for Gu Xinian's face. As for herself, I probably don't have any good feelings.
Ye Qinglan honestly stood aside as the background.
After half an hour, Empress Gu finally looked at Ye Qinglan: "It's not a short time since you entered the palace today, and the palace will send someone to send you back to the house now." ”
Ye Qinglan respectfully thanked her.
Gu Xinian smiled suddenly: "My nephew has been here for a long time, so I won't bother my aunt." ”
Empress Gu raised her eyebrows and responded with a smile. What kind of move Gu Xinian makes, she won't be too strange now.
Gu Xinian walked out of Fengyi Hall very calmly with Ye Qinglan in front of everyone. Everyone looked at the figures of the two and fell silent in unison.
After a while, Mo Shi broke the silence with a smile: "I really didn't expect that my cousin already has a sweetheart." ”
Concubine Lin immediately echoed with a smile: "Yes, I didn't expect Gu Shilang to be so considerate, I really envy others!" As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Shen Qiuyu. Obviously, this so-called "bystander" refers to Shen Qiuyu.
The prince has always favored Shen Qiuyu alone, but the concubine of the Mo family was left out in the cold. If it weren't for the fact that the Lin family gave birth to a son in one fell swoop and slightly regained the disadvantage, the backyard of the Prince's Mansion would have already become Shen Qiuyu's world by now.
