Seeing that Su Mian was about to fall to the ground, fortunately, Gu Zhixing stepped forward with a light tiptoe, so he caught Su Mian steadily.

Su Mian breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, looked up at Gu Zhixing's smiling face close at hand, and stuck out her tongue in embarrassment for a while.

"Don't dislike me for being flustered, I was too happy, so I didn't hold it for a while. But the prince shouldn't be injured, isn't that group of bandits particularly fierce and fierce, and are there any other people injured on this trip? ”

Originally, seeing Su Mian so happy and worried about himself, Gu Zhixing was naturally very happy in his heart, but after hearing Su Mian's words, he cared about everyone again, Gu Zhixing suddenly pretended to be angry and had a cold face.

"If Ah Mian says that again, this king will be jealous! If you only care about the king alone, you are fine, but you are not allowed to worry about the others, as long as the king is not injured, what do you care about them? ”

Su Mian knew that Gu Zhixing was still in the mood to joke with himself now, which proved that there was definitely no major situation this time, even if someone was injured, it should only be a minor injury, and there would definitely be no major problem.

Although he had long been accustomed to being jealous when he didn't move, Su Mian didn't take it to heart, but now all the maids and servants in this courtyard are watching. Gu Zhixing insisted on enclosing himself in his arms. refused to let go for a long time, Su Mian still felt a little embarrassed.

"Lord Wang, I was about to fall just now because I didn't stand firmly, but now it's fine, so you can let me go."

Just like Gu Zhixing has always been. No matter how many things I've experienced, I'm still jealous. Su Mian also no matter how long she got along with Gu Zhixing, Gu Zhixing even slept with him so many times, Su Mian still felt shy at every turn because of some of Gu Zhixing's too close behaviors.

Gu Zhixing looked at Su Mian's shy appearance at this time, and was in a good mood, where would he be willing to let her go? If it weren't for the fact that he was going to enter the palace today to participate in the celebration banquet, he couldn't wait to carry Su Mian back to the room now, and the next time would only belong to the two of them.

"Ah Mian is so shy at this time, now he is in the whole palace. Who else hasn't seen this king flirt with you? And I'm afraid they've all seen this king carrying you behind your back. Holding you, they are not shy, what are you afraid of? ”

Gu Zhixing deliberately joked and laughed like this, the more embarrassed Su Mian was, the more he refused to let go of Su Mian. even carried Su Mian back to the room without saying a word again.

Gu Zhixing, who was not too much, naturally did not come to Hu Lai, but asked Xiaoyu and others to change Su Mian's clothes, and when he also rested, the two entered the palace for a banquet together.

This celebration banquet was planned by Gu Zhixing before. Because in Gu Zhixing's view, this time the anti-bandit operation must be successful, and it is impossible to fail.

Therefore, this celebration banquet has been prepared early, and even the dishes and pastries that need to be prepared during the banquet have been set in advance by the imperial kitchen.

On weekdays, although Su Mian has a noble status, she is not a very luxurious and extravagant person, even if she dresses up, she is as simple as possible. It's just that the clothes and jewelry in this palace, no matter how simple they are, are also priceless in the eyes of ordinary people.

It's just that today, because of Gu Zhixing's special instructions, coupled with Gu Zhixing's selfishness before, Su Mian specially made a few new clothes for Su Mian, and now Su Mian is wearing a flower cloud satin skirt with a golden butterfly, and the delicate and novel hairpin on her hair is really eye-catching.

"Ah Mian should have dressed like this on weekdays, no matter where the king's Ah Mian goes. They should all be the most dazzling women and the most beautiful people in the crowd. ”

Gu Zhi walked forward and took Su Mian's hand affectionately, but Su Mian felt that today's dress was a little too exaggerated. Even if it's a celebration banquet, isn't it a bit noisy that a person who just stays behind the scenes and doesn't do anything is dressed like this?

But before she could say anything, Gu Zhixing had already tacitly understood that he knew what she was thinking from her eyes, so he praised her a few more words before Su Mian opened her mouth and twisted it.

"If it weren't for the fact that Ah Mian had been by my side before, this plan would not have been so successful. Maybe before the bandits, I had a dislike with Gu Zhao, and I don't know what loopholes other arresters will take advantage of. So even if you don't do anything today, you're a great hero. ”

Gu Zhixing said this, and at the same time, he had already put the back of Su Mian's hand to his lips and kissed it. Such an intimate demeanor made Su Mian shy again?

Fortunately, the person next to him did not snicker as unscrupulously as usual this time, but just waited respectfully on the side, and did not make a mistake, so Su Mian was not so twisted.

"I know, since it is the kindness of the prince, then I will naturally respond. It's just past today. I can't dress so extravagantly every day, I don't like it too much. ”

Seeing that Su Mian was willing to agree, Gu Zhi was naturally happy, after today, she still wanted to wear ordinary and simple, Gu Zhixing had no other objections, and it was like holding her little daughter-in-law all the way. smiled happily until he came to the palace, and the smile on his face did not decrease by half a point.

This time the bandits were successful, and the entire Xisheng was up and down. Everyone who knew the news was very excited, not to mention the courtiers in the imperial city who were invited to the celebration banquet?

Regardless of whether they were the henchmen on Gu Zhixing's side or not, now they were all red on the surface, and when they saw Gu Zhixing, they all came to toast with him.

It's not that Su Mian hasn't participated in a banquet before, but looking at the atmosphere today is better than usual, but he can still see Liu Ce, who has finally lifted the ban and was able to leave the house, the expression on his face seems to be more ugly than crying.

"Prime Minister, my subordinates didn't expect the regent to be so beautiful today. Do you think that this bandit suppression has been planned by them before, or has it only been a whim in the past few days? According to the temper of the regent on weekdays, it shouldn't be, how could he obediently cooperate with the emperor in such a cold war? ”

At this time, Qin Xiang was sitting next to Liu Ce, because he had already told Liu Ce what he was thinking before, so it was impossible for him to turn back so quickly now.

What's more, he knows that these parties can't really make a difference in a short period of time, and since he chose Liu Ce, now he can only take a hard path with Liu Ce.

Liu Ce snorted coldly, but his expression didn't want to be too obvious, he also felt that he was being tricked, but it stands to reason that the emperor should not be so scheming. Thinking like this, he glanced at Su Mian, who was dressed so ceremoniously beside Gu Zhixing, and had already scolded a few unpleasant words in his heart.

"I'm afraid that there are more scheming and impure people around the emperor and the prince, what kind of system is such bells and whistles! What if she is the princess of the Northern Yuan? Now in Xisheng, she is just a commoner, and it is a great gift to be able to enter the palace often, and she dares to dress up so ostentatious. ”

Liu Ce counted Su Mian at Su Mian at a very low volume, and the eyes that looked at Su Mian were also extremely unfriendly.

Su Mian inadvertently felt Liu Ce's gaze on her, but when she looked up, she saw Liu Ce looking away disapplaudedly. I felt a little awkward in my heart, but I didn't tell Gu Zhixing that I didn't want to make a big fuss.

Almost everyone had already arrived, and Gu Zhao was late in the end, after all, now as the protagonist of the whole celebration banquet, Gu Zhao was late, and everyone wouldn't say anything, but Su Mian always felt that Lu Zhe didn't seem to be very happy.

"There is no need to be polite in the Zhongqing family, today's success of me and Uncle Huang, as well as General Lu and others in suppressing bandits, is not the credit of me alone, all those who participate in it are rewarded! Especially Uncle Huang and General Lu, they are really hard today. ”

Although Lu Zhe said some pleasantries at the beginning, and held the wine bottle to toast the big guy, Su Mian still felt that he was smiling lightly. It seems to reveal more exhaustion.

But before he could wait for Su Mian to ask more, he suddenly heard Liu Ce exclaim, looking very concerned about Lu Zhe, and asked anxiously.

"Your Majesty, you won't go out of the palace to the bandit village in person today, right? That's too dangerous, the prince and General Lu are too bold, if the emperor really has a bad pool, how can it be good! ”

Hearing Liu Ce suddenly say so exaggeratedly, Gu Zhao glanced at his arm a little unnaturally. It had just been bandaged before, but now he deliberately chose some wide clothes, hidden under these wide sleeves, it should be difficult to see that his arms were actually wrapped with several circles of white yarn.

After confirming that Liu Ce was not so shocked because he found out that he was injured, Lu Zhe was even more unhappy. I'm afraid that Liu Ce is even more angry in his heart now, because he didn't have his share in the credit this time, so he deliberately said this.

Therefore, Lu Zhe did not deliberately retreat to Liu Ce as he did on weekdays, but deliberately praised Gu Zhixing and Lu Zhe a few words in front of all the courtiers present now.

"The Prime Minister is serious, if it weren't for Uncle Huang and General Lu this time, the plan would not have been so successful. And I'm not too young, I'm just a few bandits, even if I want to deal with them myself, it's just a trivial matter, why be so surprised? Could it be the Prime Minister? Don't you believe in my abilities? ”

The original celebration banquet with a smile became a little tense because of Liu Ce's inappropriate question, coupled with Gu Zhao's harsher answer than usual.

In the end, it was Lu Zhe who played a round on the side, said a few good words, and casually described a few words about today's bandits, which eased the atmosphere.

Lu Zhe naturally exaggerated, and said that those bandits were like brainless pigs' heads. was beaten by them. However, after his lively atmosphere, everyone either laughed or discussed, and the atmosphere was much better.

Su Mian didn't know if it was her own delusion, but she always felt that there were more people at the celebration banquet today.
