Soon, the concubines in the palace came one by one.

One by one, they are either glamorous or dignified, charming or gentle, the older ones are about thirty or forty years old, and the younger ones are only ten years old. All kinds of beauties are dazzling to look at. All kinds of beauties probably have only one common feature, that is, they are all carefully packed and dressed, which is quite a bit of a feeling of a garden full of flowers.

It's not enough for Queen Gu to celebrate her birthday, but more importantly, the emperor will come. The concubines were naturally not to be outdone, and they played one by one. When there are too many people, it is naturally impossible to be as quiet as before. Some of the concubines who didn't take turns to ask for peace whispered.

Ye Qinglan seized this opportunity, lowered her voice and asked, "Cousin Xiyu, how are you feeling now?" ”

Gu Xiyu is very bad.

Cold sweat broke out in her palms, her pretty face was pale, her eyes were confused, and she couldn't even squeeze out a smile. With so many unfamiliar faces, her love, which was already on the verge of collapse, almost reached an irrepressible peak.

If it weren't for the large number of people in the hall, she kept her head down, just afraid that she would have attracted everyone's attention.

Ye Qinglan's heart sank slightly, and she looked at Mrs. Zheng reflexively. Coincidentally, a concubine was chatting with Mrs. Zheng, and Mrs. Zheng didn't pay attention to this side for a while.

Ye Qinglan's frequent gaze at Mrs. Zheng attracted Gu Xinian's attention.

Gu Xinian looked at it from afar, and after seeing Gu Xiyu's unusually pale pretty face and the anxiety in Ye Qinglan's eyes, he knew that something was wrong. After thinking about it for a while, he smiled and said to Queen Gu: "Auntie, let me retire for a while." ”

Queen Gu was busy dealing with a group of concubines, and when she heard this, she only thought that Gu Xi was in a hurry, so she smiled disapprovingly and nodded in response.

Gu Xinian naturally walked to Gu Xiyu's side: "Yu'er, eldest brother will take you out to rest for a while." ”

Gu Xiyu's mind was already blank, and the familiar voice came into her ears, and she was stunned and didn't react, looking panicked and helpless. It's so endearing.

The movement here has already attracted the ideas of the people around him. A few younger concubines and palace maids had already quietly looked over. This is really inevitable, Gu Xinian's Gu Xiyu brother and sister's appearance is too outstanding, standing side by side like this, it is impossible not to attract attention!

Ye Qinglan quickly took Gu Xiyu's hand and quietly retreated from the back door of the main hall with Gu Xinian.

Gu Xinian was very familiar with the layout of the Fengyi Palace, and led the two girls into the side hall dedicated to resting.

Compared with the magnificent and spacious main hall, the side hall is much smaller, and only two palace maids are guarding the door. Gu Xinian walked inside, and asked in a low voice, "Yu'er, are you feeling better now?" ”

Gu Xiyu hasn't slowed down yet. There was no sound for a while.

Ye Qinglan was about to speak, when she suddenly noticed Gu Xinian's footsteps.

The side hall was not empty, an elegant and beautiful young woman was sitting there. There was a hint of loneliness between his eyebrows. Who else could there be if it wasn't Shen Qiuyu?

The two are really fateful. I met it again here!

Shen Qiuyu heard a familiar voice, her heart trembled, and she raised her eyes to look over. Just and Gu Xinian's indifferent gaze looked squarely. Perhaps because there were no outsiders here, Shen Qiuyu could no longer put on that casual appearance, and couldn't help but stand up. muttered and shouted: "Cousin Xi......"

This familiar title evokes memories that Gu Xinian has buried deep in his heart. The childhood sweetheart of the year had no guesses, she was heartbroken when she got married, and then there were later resentments and unwillingness. Because of this, he made the most wrong decision, but it affected his family, and the Dingguo Mansion was beheaded......

And this qiē. is all because of the seemingly pitiful woman in front of her, but in fact she is greedy and vain and ambitious.

Gu Xinian's extraordinary self-control finally came into play at this moment, he didn't turn around and leave, but responded lightly: "What a coincidence." I actually met Concubine Shen here. ”

Concubine Shen...... These three words poured down like a basin of cold water.

Shen Qiuyu's expression and body were very stiff, but he just squeezed out a smile: "Yes, what a coincidence." Such a peerless beauty showed such a pitiful expression, probably all men could not resist.

Gu Xinian was undoubtedly the exception, his black eyes like black jade were not shocked. didn't even look at Shen Qiuyu anymore, and walked in.

Ye Qinglan knew. Gu Xinian's mood at this moment is by no means as calm as it seems. Otherwise, it was impossible for him to ignore Gu Xiyu behind him.

What happened between him and Shen Qiuyu?

Ye Qinglan pulled Gu Xiyu inside, and her mind spun quickly. Based on what he saw and heard and what Gu Xinian had revealed, it can be inferred that the lover did not have a good ending in his previous life. Gu Xinian even had a strong hatred for Shen Qiuyu. This kind of hatred is obviously not only because Shen Qiuyu is married to the crown prince......

Gu Xinian didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, so he sat down on the chair opposite Shen Qiuyu. Shen Qiuyu's pretty face was a little pale, but she also sat down slowly. A pair of lovers who once loved each other deeply sat face to face, but they were relatively speechless with their own thoughts.

Ye Qinglan didn't have time to watch a good show for the time being, and after sitting down, she immediately looked at Gu Xiyu and said softly: "Cousin Xiyu, there are no outsiders here." ”

Gu Xiyu's pale pretty face finally had a hint of blood. But as soon as he looked up and saw Shen Qiuyu, Gu Xiyu's mood suddenly became gloomy again, and she pursed her lips and didn't speak.

Shen Qiuyu noticed Gu Xiyu's eyes, cheered up and smiled: "Cousin Xiyu, your face doesn't seem to be very good. ”

Gu Xiyu didn't blink her eyes, and twisted her head to the side.

Shen Qiuyu has lived in the Dingguo Mansion for many years, so he is naturally familiar with Gu Xiyu's temper, but he doesn't pay much attention to it. Miaomu couldn't help but drift towards Gu Xinian again, with a hint of longing and expectation in her eyes.

But Gu Xinian was indifferent, and didn't even bother to look at her, but coaxed Gu Xiyu softly. His voice was a little low, but it was so beautiful that people unconsciously lost their minds.

Shen Qiuyu listened in a daze, her eyes a little misty. I wonder if I remember the good times when I fell in love in the past......

A person's unconscious actions and changes in his expression often inadvertently reveal the truest feelings in his heart.

Ye Qinglan looked at Shen Qiuyu quietly, secretly speculating about Shen Qiuyu's mood at the moment. Gu Xi lived a long life, and his hatred for Shen Qiuyu far exceeded his love. And Shen Qiuyu in this life seems to have no feelings for his former lover......

Gu Xinian occasionally raised his eyes, and saw Ye Qinglan's bright eyes with great interest, and a trace of displeasure inexplicably floated in his heart. This girl looks like a good show, it's really annoying! I want to get up and leave, but Gu Xiyu's feelings have just calmed down at this time, and it is not suitable to go back to the bustling main hall at all. Then there is only ......

"We're here, disturbing Concubine Shen's purity!" Gu Xinian's indifferent voice sounded: "I think Concubine Shen is in good spirits, so it is better to move to the main hall." "It's quite polite, but it's clear that you're driving people away!

Shen Qiuyu's pretty face turned white, and she looked at Gu Xinian in disbelief. The familiar handsome face had a cold expression, looking at her as if she were looking at an unrelated stranger, and the affectionate young man she remembered.

Gu Xinian looked at Shen Qiuyu's shocked appearance, and instead of a trace of pity in his heart, he felt a strange kind of happiness: "Concubine Shen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is waiting for you." ”

At the mention of the crown prince, Shen Qiuyu's expression finally calmed down, but he didn't get up to leave, but looked at Gu Xinian fixedly, and his lips opened lightly: "We haven't seen each other for so long, don't you have anything to say to me?" ”

It's coming, it's coming! The bloody romance drama is about to be officially staged!

Ye Qinglan was in good spirits and tried her best to reduce her sense of existence. lest it disturb the lover in front of him who had been reunited for a long time. I don't know if it's her delusion, Gu Xinian seemed to glance at her quickly.

Well, she must have read it wrong. The love-hate entanglement of the old lover is right in front of him, how could Gu Xinian be in the mood to pay attention to her, an inconsequential passerby! Keep watching!

Compared with Shen Qiuyu's excitement, Gu Xinian was extremely cold: "Between us, what else is there to say." ”

From the day she had her ambitions, from the moment she was torn between him and the prince, the affection between them had been gone.

In his previous life, he always thought that Shen Qiuyu was forced to marry the prince in desperation, and the person he really loved in his heart was himself. Therefore, he broke with the crown prince and threw himself on the side of the third prince. Advise the three princes and deal with the prince in every possible way. At that time, he was deceived by lies and couldn't see the truth clearly.

It wasn't until later that he finally knew how powerful Shen Qiuyu's scheming was, pretending to be innocent and pitiful, deceiving him and betraying him again and again. Even if he once loved her deeply, that love turned into outright hatred the moment the truth was revealed.

I only hated that in my previous life, it was too late to know this, he failed to protect the safety of the Dingguo Mansion, and watched his relatives die one by one. And he, in the cold death row, was waiting for the poisoned wine she personally sent.

On that day, it happened to be his twenty-sixth birthday. He was in the prime of a man's life, but he died at the hands of a woman who once loved and believed deeply. And she is still as affectionate as usual, but what comes out of her mouth is the most cold and ruthless words in the world: "Xi Nian, you can't give me what I want." That's all I can do, I'm sorry! ”

With a word of sorry, he drank the poisoned wine. First his throat burned, then his whole body ached, and then, his mind gradually dissipated, until it was a cold darkness......

That unforgettable pain slowly tormented him when he dreamed back in the middle of the night. made his heart as cold as iron, and made him no longer want to trust anyone, not even to be close to any woman again.

Shen Qiuyu, you are the deepest scar in my life, I can't help but kill you in this life, because I don't want to fall out with the prince, and to protect the safety of my family. How could I still have a memory of you!
