There was an eerie silence in the courtyard.

Su Mian laughed a little embarrassed twice, and then pretended not to remember anything, and her eyes flickered around: "Really...... I don't even remember me saying that, but you remember ......."

Gu Zhixing was slightly stunned at first, and then looked at Su Mian and laughed.

He would never have thought that Su Mian would talk to Gu Zhao about these things.

A lifetime of a couple...... Is it referring to yourself?

A smile crossed his eyes, looking at Su Mian's red ears, Gu Zhixing's heart was a little mixed.

Gu Zhao didn't say enough, and deliberately said again: "There is also that marriage line, I thought about it carefully just now, you should buy it." ”

I dare to mention the marriage line! This stinky boy did it on purpose!

Su Mian finally reacted, and stopped Gu Zhao with his eyes not to continue.

Having achieved the goal he wanted, Gu Zhao's face showed a look of successful mischief, and then he turned around and left with the fireworks that Su Mian gave him.

For a while, there were only two people left in the courtyard, Gu Zhixing and Su Mian, and Su Mian only felt more embarrassed.

Am I having my head ironed today?

What is wrong with Gu Zhao? I'm going to say those words! I almost bought some marriage line!

Now it's okay, it's been debunked!

Standing in place for a while, noticing that Gu Zhixing behind him didn't seem to have the intention of speaking, Su Mian decided to sneak up first.

"Ah...... I suddenly feel so sleepy, let the next person clean up these things, I want to go back to sleep......" She yawned as she pretended that she was really sleepy and needed to rest, and turned her head and walked in her direction.

Then, unsurprisingly, someone grabbed his wrist.

Sighing in her heart, Su Mian simply didn't do anything, and quickly explained: "I said those words today not for anything else, but I just hope that Gu Zhao knows what he wants, instead of casually following other people's advice and making decisions that will affect his life!" ”

Without even breathing, Su Mian quickly finished what he wanted to say, and then turned his head to stare at Gu Zhixing, with a posture that if he dared to say something, he would turn his face on the spot.

Looking at her ears that were getting redder and redder, Gu Zhixing smiled and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

He really wanted to tease Su Mian for a word or two, but he didn't want to make people anxious like this.

I already know her mind.

But...... What if you just don't want to let go when you look at her like this?

His eyes flickered for a moment, Gu Zhixing simply followed his thoughts directly, and with a slight exertion of strength on his wrist, he pulled the person in his direction and took the person into his arms.

"Gu Zhixing! You ......" Su Mian chuckled in her heart, and subconsciously wanted to push people away.

Then I heard him whisper in his ear, "Okay, let me hug you?" I don't say anything......"

Maybe the atmosphere at this time was too warm and ambiguous, or maybe Su Mian noticed that her face must be so red that she could be seen at a glance, and she was silent for a long time, she really stood still obediently, and let Gu Zhixing just hold herself.

After a while, he let go of her.

"Okay, go back and rest, after a day of playing today, you should be tired too." Her tone was gentle, and while saying this, she took advantage of Su Mian's blushing to drop a light kiss on her forehead.

Su Mian paused slightly, and subconsciously reached out to cover his forehead, staring at him and not knowing what to say.

Is it my delusion? Why has this guy Gu Zhixing become more and more bold recently?

Glancing at him speechlessly, Su Mian turned around quickly, strode back to his room, and closed the door with a "bang".

Listening to the small movements in the room, it took a while before it quieted down, and Gu Zhixing returned to his room with a smile in his eyes.

A lifetime of a couple...... Is it?

If this is her wish, then she will definitely not live up to it.

Thinking of Gu Zhao's mention of the marriage line just now, Gu Zhixing couldn't help but shake his head funny.

I'd never believe in that folklore thing, but ...... If Ah Mian likes it, it doesn't hurt to tie a branch with her.

In the room, Su Mian washed up briefly, then threw herself into the quilt and forcibly closed her eyes to put herself to sleep.

Then he was immersed in the "nightmare" of Gu Zhixing chasing him with a marriage line all night.

It wasn't until the sky was hazy that the expected "poof" rolled from the bed to the ground.

"Hiss......" rubbed his somewhat painful waist, Su Mian crawled back to the bed from the ground with a bitter face, and her heart was full of helplessness.

If someone were to interview Su Mian with a microphone now, she would definitely only say one word.

Regret, the person concerned is now very regretful.

If I could turn back time, I would never mention anything to Gu Zhao for a lifetime, let alone stop at the stall that sells marriage lines!

No! I won't even look at it!

All the drowsiness was lost by the fall just now, Su Mian simply cleaned up and got up from the bed, cleaned up briefly, and then as soon as he went out, he saw Gu Zhixing coming around from behind.

Originally, Su Mian would not get up until the breakfast was almost arranged, but she didn't expect her to wake up so early today, and Gu Zhixing asked a little uncomfortably as if she hadn't slept well.

Looking at Gu Zhixing's face, Su Mian remembered the "fear" that she had been dominated by this person in her dreams all night, so she had to smile wryly and shake her head and say that she was fine, but she just couldn't sleep and got up.

Or because yesterday's incident was a little weak, Su Mian finished eating with a sullen head, and directly dropped the dishes and chopsticks, saying that he was going to find Gu Zhao.

Looking at her back and running away, Gu Zhixing guessed that she should still be a little uncomfortable because of yesterday's events, not only did she feel a little helpless and funny, but she also felt that she looked very cute.

Su Mian walked in the direction of the imperial study without looking back, and he had already figured out the route with a clear understanding.

But I didn't expect to be stopped before I could go in today.

"Miss Sue." The little eunuch who often followed Gu Zhao smiled at her and explained: "Lord Liu came to discuss with the emperor today, and he shouldn't leave for a while, and the emperor explained that if Miss Su comes, you don't have to wait, you can come back tomorrow." ”

Hearing that Gu Zhao was deliberating, Su Mian nodded clearly and didn't stay any longer.

In the imperial study, Gu Zhaozheng and Liu Ce were discussing important matters, and they also heard Su Mian coming.

After a slight pause, he didn't care, and continued to talk to Liu Ce about what he hadn't finished just now.

Liu Ce came directly to the imperial study with Gu Zhao after the early court, and then stayed all morning.

It wasn't until near noon that he planned to leave.

Refusing Gu Zhao's invitation to leave him in the palace for dinner, Liu Ce pretended to be casual before leaving: "By the way, the old minister still forgot to ask about something, I don't know the emperor and Su Mian...... How are you getting along these days? ”

Gu Zhao paused slightly, pondered for a while before speaking: "She does understand many things that others don't know, and I have also learned a lot from her. ”

Knowing that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including Liu Ce, had a lot of prejudices against Su Mian, Gu Zhao didn't say much, but he didn't want to go the opposite way and completely stand on Su Mian's side, so he had to choose to avoid the important and light, and say less if he could.

Liu Ce was not very satisfied with his answer, frowned, and then he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, forgive the old minister for talking too much, Su Mian is cunning and insidious, I don't know how to bewitch the regent, and I have been lurking by his side for five years, so the emperor is better to be careful." ”

After that, I noticed the fireworks in the corner of the wall.

Remembering that his informant came to report that Gu Zhao had lit fireworks in the middle of the night, Liu Ce's eyes flickered for a moment, and he deliberately asked, "When did the emperor become interested in fireworks?" ”

Gu Zhao was slightly stunned, and replied casually: "I'm not interested." ”

He said he wasn't interested, but he didn't explain what the fireworks were for.

Liu Ce laughed twice when he heard this, and then he pretended to be careless and said: "Even if you are interested, it doesn't matter, the emperor ascended the throne at a young age, and the old minister knows that the burden on the emperor's shoulders is heavy, and it doesn't hurt to find some ways to relax on weekdays, but although this fireworks are beautiful, they are only for a short moment, so don't be discouraged." ”

Liu Ce has been by Gu Zhao's side since he was young, and Gu Zhao naturally regards him as half a teacher in his heart, so he didn't feel much displeasure when he said this, just nodded and signaled that he knew.

Liu Ce paused slightly, and then spoke: "And Su Mian, the emperor still doesn't want to be deceived by her appearance, if she really knows something that ordinary people can't do, the emperor can let go and learn, but don't have a heart-to-heart." ”

"I know." Hearing that Liu Ce said something like letting him be careful of Su Mian, Gu Zhao didn't even notice it, and subconsciously frowned.

Keenly aware that the young man in front of him seemed to be a little displeased, Liu Ce didn't say anything more, and simply left.

In the imperial study, Gu Zhao stood alone in place, his eyes unconsciously fell on the fireworks in the corner, but what he remembered was Su Mian's smile when he handed these fireworks to him yesterday.

There was some confusion in his heart, and Gu Zhao sat aside with some irritability.

Reason told him that he should always be on guard against Su Mian and Gu Zhixing from the beginning, but there was another voice whispering in his heart, he didn't hate Su Mian as much as before.

After hesitating for a while, he stood up sharply, gathered up all the fireworks in the corner, and planned to ask someone to throw them out.

But just as he was about to open his mouth to call someone, he took back what he said.

After being silent for a long time, Gu Zhao threw the pile of fireworks in his hand back into place.

It's just that from this day on, he never lit these fireworks alone in the middle of the night.

even refused Su Mian's lecture for three days on official grounds.
