Gu Qingwan stayed in the flower hall for a long time, and told Guiye a few things, and it was rare to go back to the main room to pass the meal before the first shift.

June in Beijing was already very hot and dry, and when it went down in the future, the heat wave around it subsided slightly.

Gu Qingwan has eaten very lightly during this time, and an ice bucket has been put in the main room early to cool down, and there is a hint of coolness in the room, so her appetite is also good.

After passing the meal, I turned my head and saw Zheng Rui sitting in the back room in a sullen voice. Gu Qingwan didn't pay attention to him, and only waited for Baotian and Jin Hai to set up dinner, and then asked Guiye to inform Zheng Rui to come over for dinner.

Gu Qingwan didn't like others to serve her during the meal, so Baotian and Jin Hai naturally knew her temperament, so they bowed and retreated. Seeing that Dongzhu and Nanyu were still standing in the room, Jin Hai stopped and glanced at the two of them, snorted lightly and walked away.

Nanyu's heart jumped, so she took the opportunity to pull Dongzhu's sleeve and pointed out the door again.

Dongzhu glanced at Nanyu, said a word silently, and went to Gu Qingwan and Zheng Rui. Nanyu saw clearly what Dongzhu meant "each according to his ability", and saw that she looked impatient, her eyes were in a trance, and a sneer overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

It's an idiot! Nan Yu cursed in her heart, and followed Bao Tian and Jin Hai's steps.

The food made in the small kitchen is exquisite but not extravagant, there are only six dishes on the table, two meats, two vegetables and two cold dishes, but because Gu Qingwan came back to eat, she added a sweet soup to cool off the heat.

Gu Qingwan saw that Zheng Rui still didn't speak, and she didn't pay attention to him. When he raised his hand, he wanted to make food for himself, when he heard a soft voice in his ear: "The slave and maid are serving the princess and the prince to eat." ”

She picked up the silver chopsticks that were resting aside, and stood beside Gu Qingwan respectfully.

Gu Qingwan glanced at Dongzhu with a smile, and said with a smile: "No need, you can serve the prince for dinner." ”

Dongzhu almost showed a grateful expression, since she showed favor to the princess, the princess not only did not have all kinds of precautions against her, but even transferred her to the prince's side to serve her closely. She has had a lot of opportunities in the past month, but the hateful thing is that Zou Simin doesn't even want face, and she goes to Wanjuan Hall all day long to wait for the rabbit. The harmful prince didn't even dare to enter the second door during the day.

Now that the princess asked her to cook vegetables for the princess, she looked at the princess's face as usual, did the princess see her value and wanted to promote her?

Dongzhu couldn't hide the smile on his face, and responded with a red face "yes", then moved to Zheng Rui's side in broken steps, and came over with a pair of chopsticks and milk fish fillets: "I haven't given the prince vegetables for a long time." I vaguely remembered that the prince liked this dish, and I don't know if Dongzhu remembered it wrongly. ”

Zheng Rui glanced at Gu Qingwan, and when he saw that she was taking care of herself, she didn't seem to have paid attention to Dongzhu Fangcai's words and deeds at all. He felt that it would not work to go on like this, so he even moved the chair in the direction of Gu Qingwan, ignoring the fish fillets placed on the plate in front of him, picking up the chopsticks and scooping them up by himself.

Dongzhu only felt that the hand holding the chopsticks suddenly stiffened. She looked at Zheng Rui aggrievedly. Ru complained and cried: "I don't know where Dongzhu is not good at serving, and I ask the prince to make it clear." ”

Zheng Rui picked up the chair again and moved it in Gu Qingwan's direction, the table was round, Zheng Rui moved two big steps, and suddenly he was next to Gu Qingwan.

"Princess...... Dongzhu did something wrong? Seeing that Zheng Rui ignored him, Dongzhu hurriedly asked Gu Qingwan for help.

Gu Qingwan glanced at Zheng Rui, who was buried in his head, and said with a gentle expression: "The prince may have lost his temper, you go down first." ”

Now that Gu Qingwan has already spoken. Dongzhu could only retreat with tears in her eyes.

The world was cleared up all of a sudden, Gu Qingwan's appetite was not bad, she ate most of the vegetarian dishes on one plate, and the other dish of slightly greasy saltwater tenderloin was used a lot, but the plate of milk fish fillets never touched a single chopstick. Feeling that she was seven points full, Gu Qingwan put down her chopsticks and held a small bowl of sweet soup and slowly sipped it.

Soon the sweet soup also bottomed out, Gu Qingwan cleaned her hands with a handkerchief, and saw that Zheng Rui was still looking at herself, and her heart became complicated for a while.

Zheng Rui pretending to be stupid is a last resort, but such a person who has been scheming since he was a child is not a good match for Gu Qingwan.

She can be honest with Zheng Rui, who is lacking in mind, and when she discusses her private affairs with Guiye and them, she never thinks of hiding it in front of Zheng Rui. After she entered the mansion, she took over the stewardship of the entire Ruiwang Mansion, whether it was Dongzhu Nanyu or Zou Simin, or even Mama Tian and Mama Zhang sent by Empress Chen, she was hollowed out by her.

After thinking about it again, she acquiesced in this family business, why didn't she take advantage of Zheng Rui, but the Bodhisattva has three points of incense, and how Zheng Rui has treated her in the past half a year Gu Qingwan is also in her eyes. She pitied Zheng Rui's situation, since Zheng Rui didn't know how to fight, she helped Zheng Rui fight for it.

She and Zheng Rui were married by Emperor Yufeng, and they had to be tied together for the rest of their lives, Gu Qingwan thought that husband and wife were one, and helping Zheng Rui was helping herself.

But if Zheng Rui is not stupid, just because she takes care of everything in King Rui's mansion, she may have touched Zheng Rui's scales. Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, Zheng Rui has no chance to make an account, but when she settles accounts after the autumn, she doesn't know what will happen to her.

remembered what Princess Huai used to make fun of her some time ago, saying that she and Zheng Rui's family affair was begged for by Zheng Rui in person when she went to Queen Chen to make a fuss.

What kind of character is Miss Gu San in the boudoir? Brutal and willful, arrogant and domineering. It is the general trend to marry the Marquis of Dingyuan, Zheng Rui gave up Gu Qingyan and asked to marry him, he must have other plans. During this period of time, Gu Qingwan thought of it over and over again, nothing more than that she had a powerful uncle than Gu Qingyan.

The He family is also a big family in Jiangnan, except for Gu Qingwan's maternal ancestor He Zhanghua, there are many relatives in Jiangnan. And He Zhanghua has been operating in Jiangnan for many years, although he has passed away, his connections are still there. He Chengping was promoted to the deputy capital of the Inspectorate last year, and He Chengyang worked in the Hanlin Academy, although his rank was not too high, he could be regarded as an important position.

What's more important is that He Chengping and He Chengyang are clear streams, but they are very sleek, and Xu will not stand in line easily.

Although the He family and the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion had a falling out on the surface, the He family was very kind to Gu Qingwan, a cousin, in addition to helping Gu Qingwan get back the dowry, and even gave Gu Qingwan a lot of property as a dowry.

If he marries Gu Qingyan, it is just a marriage with the Marquis of Dingyuan, and for the line of King Jing, the Sun family is afraid that they will not look down on it. If Princess Kerui was Gu Qingwan, not only would she consolidate her relationship with King Huai, but the He family would also indirectly be assigned to Queen Chen.

This family affair was a stake from beginning to end, and she once thought that the person next to her pillow had no city and was as simple as a blank sheet of paper, but she didn't know how he laughed at her in secret.

Every time Gu Qingwan thought of this, she only felt a chill in her heart.

She can be defenseless against the simple-minded Zheng Rui, but for the person in front of her, she has to change the way she gets along.

Gu Qingwan took a breath secretly, with a hint of a smile on her face, she pointed to the few dishes that were still half left on the table, and asked softly: "But these dishes are not appetizing, what does the prince want to eat, I will ask the small kitchen to make two more dishes." ”

Zheng Rui raised his head and glanced at Gu Qingwan secretly, he was used to seeing Gu Qingwan's appearance in private, so he could naturally distinguish the sincerity and falsehood in her expression. Although Gu Qingwan's tone was very concerned, the smile on her face was extremely faint, which only made Zheng Rui panic in his heart.

"Qingwan, I promise that I will never go racing again in the future, I will listen to whatever you say." Seeing Gu Qingwan lowering her eyes, she reached out and pulled her sleeve, and said in a deep voice, "Don't be angry." ”

Gu Qingwan stared at Zheng Rui's hand, and then pulled the hem of her skirt again, and then said indifferently: "How can I be angry with the prince, don't be careful." ”

"You are not in the house during the day, and you refuse to talk to me at night, I know that you are angry." Zheng Rui sighed in his heart.

He was smart when he was young, and he was the youngest child of Emperor Yufeng at that time, and he couldn't be less than the prince in front of the emperor. The people in the palace are used to stepping on the high and praising the low, only someone will let him, how can he let him. Later, after falling into the water, Emperor Yufeng treated him well for a year or two because of pity, even if he was forgotten and moved out of the palace, he was the prince after all. To be called a fool is to offend people, and no one will really care, even more wanton than when he was a child.

After careful calculation, he spoke so eloquently and angrily, and he was only in front of Gu Qingwan. He remembered that his third emperor brother once said, "The wicked have their own wicked grinding", and now he thinks it is right.

But for most of the past half a month, he couldn't figure out what Gu Qingwan was angry with him for. After listening to Bao Tian's words, he had some clues, but he was a little hesitant.

"Otherwise, you can beat me up and get angry." Zheng Rui sighed, and then leaned his face towards Gu Qingwan's hand.

Gu Qingwan's hand rested on the table, and he coldly pasted Zheng Rui's face, and immediately took it back as if he had been electrocuted, and in a panic, he scratched out half of his face.

A trace of astonishment flashed on her face, and she said after a while: "Fang Cai didn't mean it, please forgive me." Besides, the prince really thought too much, I was not angry, and I didn't dare to be angry with the prince. Some time ago, I went out because the wives of the clan invited me with a post, and the prince also knew that there were many elders in the clan, so I naturally wanted to go after they posted a post. ”

Gu Qingwan is the princess, how many elders in the clan can have a higher rank than her? Zheng Rui also knew that this was just Gu Qingwan's words, and he couldn't help but feel a little helpless in his heart.

Thinking that Gu Qingwan would be so alienated and polite, Zheng Rui only felt panicked in his heart.

"If the prince is fine, I will go to the small study first, if the prince is tired, rest first, and I don't need to let the night watchman leave a lamp for me."

After Gu Qingwan returned to the main room, Bao Tian learned what Zheng Rui asked her, how to answer, Gu Qingwan had told her before. Sooner or later, Zheng Rui would guess why she was estranged, and what Gu Qingwan was waiting for was just when Zheng Rui would be honest with her.

It's just that Gu Qingwan never thought about why she was so paranoid about Zheng Rui's honesty, and she never thought that if Zheng Rui knew that she would touch the truth, it would be unfavorable to her.

Probably, she is also subtly changing. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
