Since the emperor discovered this, he has been enlightening him, educating him, and wanting him to accept the arrangement of the reality in front of him, but Gu Shenyuan is very resistant.

After a long time, this has become the biggest contradiction between father and son.

Because a good solution has not been found, the two have been in a stalemate.

It wasn't until the emperor allowed Gu Shenyuan to be given some freedom and approved that he could not participate in the discussion of state affairs, that this contradiction would not become more and more serious.

Although Gu Shenyuan can live freely outside the palace, the scope is limited to the capital.

This is all tacit knowledge of everyone inside and outside the court, and now Gu Gangqian's opening seems to be supporting his brother, but in fact he is spying on Gu Shenyuan's reality.

He just wanted to see how Gu Shenyuan's feelings for Jiang Ruanyan had become, even if his father didn't hate Jiang Ruanyan now, he could even allow her to marry like the palace, that would be good.

But if Gu Shenyuan agrees with this sentence, it means that he still has the idea of leaving the royal family, which is to openly oppose his father.

If Gu Shenyuan wasn't even afraid of this, it could also be seen that his feelings for Jiang Ruanyan were solid.

Since this is the case, then when the time comes to eradicate Jiang Ruanyan, he can easily eradicate Gu Shenyuan together.

It's a pity that Gu Gangqian's wishful thinking was calculated too early, Gu Shenyuan didn't drink here, put down the wine glass and replied with a smile.

"Brother, I'm afraid it's not a misunderstanding."

Seeing that Gu Shenyuan had put down his wine glass, he was so calm, Gu Gangqian naturally had no need to hold it again.

He put down his glass with a malicious smile on his face:

"Oh, did I misunderstand? But I've heard a lot of rumors this time, and the streets and alleys are telling the beautiful love story between you and Boss Jiang of Jishitang. ”

This time, Jiang Ruanyan was 100% sure that Gu Gangqian was looking at her just now, because Gu Gangqian was looking directly at her now.

"And haven't you moved to Jishitang now?"

He looked at Gu Shenyuan like that, as if he was saying again, in the face of ironclad evidence, don't quibble.

"My brother is right, I have now moved into Jishitang, but before that, my brother had heard that I was already the spokesperson of the Heart Pavilion."

Gu Shenyuan didn't forget to make up for himself.

Jiang Ruanyan, who was anxious, was sweating in his palms in the audience, when is this man in charge, and he is still showing off his achievements here.

This Gu Gangqian is obviously digging a pit for him, Gu Shenyuan is so good, not only did he jump into the pit himself, but also brought his own firewood, is there such a stupid person?

"Since I became the spokesperson of Xinyuan Pavilion, I am naturally responsible for the quality of its products, so I also served as a supervisor later."

Gu Shenyuan counted his position carefully, and Jiang Ruanyan sighed silently at the foot of the steps.

The tighter this relationship is tied, the more chance Gu Gangqian will have to talk nonsense?

Now we must seize the opportunity to clear up the relationship with Ji Shitang, how can Gu Shenyuan be in a hurry and make up for it?

Jiang Softyan really couldn't understand his operation.

Or is he trying to ......

When disappointed, Jiang Ruanyan thought about it, could it be that Gu Shenyuan was going to prepare to break the kettle and directly introduce her to the princess-to-be?

She didn't know if it was the right time to fulfill the promise Gu Shenyuan had made to her, but she was a little excited in her heart, and she didn't want Gu Shenyuan to do things impulsively.

"Moving to Jishitang is just to better supervise the quality of their products from the source, that's all."

Gu Shenyuan said a word, and he didn't mention the relationship with anyone in Jishitang.

While Jiang Ruanyan breathed a sigh of relief, he was also a little disappointed in his heart.

"Oh, it looks like I was mistaken." Gu Gangqian also sat back in his place stupidly.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but at this time, the song was finished, the actors left, and there were obviously more than 100 people in the huge hall, but at this moment it was quiet like no one.

Just now, the music was full of music, and most of them showed that they were immersed in the performance.

But since the moment Gu Gangqian stood up, each of them pricked up their ears and listened to all the conversations on the steps.

Hearing some words one after another, and also hearing Jishitang and Xinyuan Pavilion, everyone was speculating, was Gu Gangqian asking about the matter between Gu Shenyuan and Jiang Ruanyan?

And just when the music stopped, and when I heard Gu Gangqian say that he had made a mistake, everyone's eyes looked at Jiang Ruanyan and became extremely ambiguous.

Jiang Ruanyan, who was sitting in the front row, felt that his back was being stared at.

The next dancing performer has already taken his place on stage, but the music has not yet started.

Jiang Ruanyan heard voices coming from behind one after another.

"See? His Royal Highness didn't even smile just now, which shows how sure he is that he has nothing to do with that woman. ”

"I'll just say, how can Your Highness like an uneducated girl like her?"

"A woman should abide by her duty and teach her husband and children at home, how can she be proud of showing up every day like her?"

"That's it, I think His Highness is just playing with him at most, and it is absolutely impossible to bring such a woman into the palace."

When the music sounded, Jiang Ruanyan closed her eyes and forced herself to only listen to music and watch the performance, she didn't want to listen to the group of people behind her chew her tongue.

However, Gu Gangqian did not give up.

"But a lot of things seem to have happened during my absence from the capital, and as soon as I came back, I heard people around me enthusiastically tell me about a store choosing a spokesperson a while ago."

He paused, pretending not to know.

"I don't remember the name of that shop, but according to their description, the scene was an empty alley, as if the second brother went to the people to choose a concubine, and I was in a hurry to get it wrong."

Jiang Ruanyan began to complain a little in his heart, why did this music sound at this time.

should let those people behind listen to it and recall how embarrassed those girls were in this folk rumored concubine selection ceremony.

"Brother bothered, I'm really ashamed to be a younger brother, my brother has been on the side for so long, I haven't helped, and my brother has been worried about my private affairs."

Jiang Ruanyan was close and could hear clearly, Gu Shenyuanjiao's words were quite complaining, and almost made her laugh.

It shouldn't be difficult for Gu Gangqian to hear that Gu Shenyuan is blaming him for being lenient.

After all, how many big men would worry about it like him?

"Brother, where are these words? You and I are a family, and your business is naturally my business, not to mention, if you want to choose a concubine for such a lifelong event, how can you be careless? ”

No matter how Gu Shenyuan hurt him, Gu Gangqian's side became more and more proud.

What he wants is to lock the topic on the relationship between Gu Shenyuan and Jiang Ruanyan.

Even if Gu Shenyuan avoided all his traps smoothly just now, and didn't mention Jiang Ruanyan's name when talking about Xinyuan Pavilion and Jishitang, the further he went, the clearer he became, to see how he could dodge.

"Brother said and laughed, I still haven't achieved anything, how can there be a reason to marry a wife and have children first, I'm afraid that the matter of choosing a concubine will have to be considered by my brother first."

If it weren't for the fact that he was in front of his father, because today was a holiday, Gu Shenyuan would have turned around and left a long time ago, and he still talked so much nonsense with him.

"Not really." The emperor, who had not spoken before, spoke at this time.

"Since ancient times, there have been many ancestors who started a family first and then started a business, as long as they meet the right good girl, they don't have to think about it so much."

The emperor's words made Gu Shenyuan chuckle in his heart, but it was not easy to refute, "What my father said is very true. ”

Raising his head again, Gu Gangqian on the opposite side had already turned his head contentedly and pretended to enjoy the performance.

Since his father and emperor are on his side and urge Gu Shenyuan to marry together, it is inevitable that his father also agrees with Gu Shenyuan and Jiang Ruanyan, a pair of mandarin ducks.

The girl is a good girl, but it's a pity that this identity is too special.

Gu Shenyuan, who has always performed well this time, is afraid that he will disappoint his father.

Jiang Ruanyan in the audience had been eavesdropping and had never participated in the conversation, and she understood Gu Shenyuan's answer when she heard it.

Lift the fruit wine next to you and drink it down, and then enjoy the performance with all your heart.

The Mid-Autumn Festival dinner was very lively, and at the end of the day, it was already dark, and the moon hung high in the sky, shining brightly in the palace.

Even if she didn't play the lantern, Jiang Ruanyan could clearly see all the steps, so she sent the little eunuch back first, and walked along the road to the palace gate.

When she came, there was her and Gu Shenyuan's carriage, and now she is the only one when she goes back.

Because Concubine Qi said that it was rare that the emperor's two sons were in the capital, it was better to take advantage of the festive reunion to let the emperor and his sons get together, so she persuaded Gu Shenyuan to stay and rest in the palace.

When she was leaving, she also met Gu Shenyuan on the side of the road.

He was still hiding in the corner, wanting to call himself over, Jiang Ruanyan smiled, beckoned to him, and said, "Goodbye." He walked out of the palace without looking back.

She knew that Gu Shenyuan just wanted to tell him that he was forced again?

Forced to stay in the palace, forced to not be able to talk to her, forced to dissociate himself from her.

None of this was Gu Shenyuan's willing, but he had to do it.

Jiang Ruanyan was tired of hearing these words, so he simply pretended to be drunk and went home directly.

Back at Jishitang, everyone had already slept, she groped her way back to her room, and as soon as she pushed open the door, bright flowers fell from the sky, and Bingyue and Bai Ruoguan came out from behind the door.

The two of them came to Jiang Ruanyan in unison, "See the princess." ”

raised his head, but saw Jiang Ruanyan's dejected face.

"It's wrong, I'm Jiang Ruanyan." She disconnected the two of them and went around to the table and poured herself a cup of tea.

Although she smelled of alcohol, she was not yet drunk, and she could tell what was reality and what was a dream.

"Ouch, that's not a matter of time." Bai Ruoguan continued to joke, thinking that the expression on Jiang Ruanyan's face was just because he was tired of playing.

"You think too much, people don't mean that at all." Jiang Ruanyan put down the teacup, his face full of displeasure.

Bingyue didn't dare to speak on the side.

"How is that possible? Gu Shenyuan's feelings for you, we have all seen it with our own eyes. Bai Ruoguan turned around and begged for Bingyue's approval.

Bingyue nodded, even if Jiang Ruanyan was their good friend, they couldn't wronged Gu Shenyuan like this.

Bingyue seemed to have guessed something, and she held Jiang Ruanyan's shoulder.

"Ouch, don't think about it so much, it's an extraordinary time, and he has no choice but to do it."
