Just as he was about to speak, there was a sudden sound of footsteps at the door, it should be someone from another private room who had finished his meal and was going downstairs.

"Oh, Lord Wang, don't be angry, what kind of temper does the prince have, you and I don't know? Why can't he get by? ”

"Yes, who dares to provoke him now in the Manchu Dynasty? Isn't that unpleasant for yourself? ”

As he passed by the door, the scattered voices of speech reached the ears of the two people sitting in the private room.

Gu Zhixing raised his eyebrows, his deep eyes flashed with coldness, those old men actually dared to chew the root of their tongues behind their backs? His hand squeezing the wine glass tightened violently, and he actually pinched a white jade wine glass into powder!

Su Mian was already a little puzzled, but when she saw him like this, she was taken aback.

I rub! Gu Zhixing, what's wrong?

Is the Great Demon King finally about to break out?

Seeing that he seemed to be about to get up and go out to find the few people who had just spoken, Su Mianyan quickly pressed his wrist: "Lord Wang!" Where are you going? ”

She looked at Gu Zhixing a little nervously, and realized that her actions just now seemed to be a little too subconscious.

Why did I hold Gu Zhixing just now?

Su Mian was a little puzzled, but since he had already dragged him, he had no choice but to continue to drag.

"Since he came out to eat, why should the prince be angry?" She whispered.

But as soon as the words came out, her whole face was not good, no, as an adulterous concubine, shouldn't she instigate him to go out and beat those people?

The old ministers had already walked downstairs, and they had long since lost their voices.

Gu Zhixing looked down at the little hand that was tugging at him, he had miraculously calmed down, but his mood was still not much better.

"Heh, these old ministers who love to chew the root of their tongues, I think it's time to teach them a lesson!" Gu Zhixing's dark haze seemed to be angry if he didn't do anything.

Su Mian's mind moved, stood up and walked towards the window, and looked downstairs.

Sure enough, just as she thought, the one in the middle of a group of old ministers was really the "Lord Wang" she knew. ”

Turning around and sitting down at the table, she tentatively asked, "What happened to Lord Wang Zhiqiu and Lord Wang Zhiqiu?" ”

Wang Zhiqiu is the full name of that king.

Gu Zhixing's eyes flashed with a hint of indifference, and he picked up a wine glass again, raised his head and poured a glass of wine, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

Seeing him like this, Su Mian also felt more clear in his heart, it turned out that he had a conflict with Wang Zhiqiu, no wonder he was in such a bad mood today......

Wang Zhiqiu's name is known to him, and he is a well-known loyal minister of Xisheng.

If you walk on the street and mention this Lord Wang Zhiqiu, everyone in Xisheng will give a thumbs up and praise it.

If Gu Zhixing was allowed to get rid of Wang Zhiqiu by what happened just now...... The vitality of the Western Saint must have been greatly damaged!

But...... But......

Su Mian opened her mouth, and all the words she wanted to say were stuck in her mouth, thinking of the age of that Lord Wang, she suddenly felt a little unbearable.

After thinking about it, she tried to inquire: "I don't know what that Lord Wang Zhiqiu did to make the prince unhappy?" How can such a good person have a good web page to deal with him? ”

"It's nothing more than saying something that doesn't like it, if he can't learn to speak, this king doesn't mind teaching him how to speak!"

Thinking of what had happened earlier, Gu Zhixing felt that he couldn't suppress his anger, and put the wine glass in his hand on the table.

"Don't be angry, prince!" Su Mian was startled, and hurriedly sandwiched a freshly made shrimp on the plate in front of him, with a shallow smile on his face.

"I heard...... Lord Wang is one of the most loyal ministers in the court, and he has made a lot of contributions before......"

Su Mian pondered the wording and carefully considered how to say this.

"Lord Wang must be old, and it is normal to be a little pedantic when he speaks, why should the prince care so much, if he doesn't like to listen, then he will have less contact with Lord Wang in the future."

As she spoke, Su Mian unconsciously said good things for Lord Wang.

Ay...... After all, Lord Wang looks at his age, if he is really Gu Zhixing, I am afraid that it is a matter of whether he can keep his old life......

Even if Gu Zhixing let him go and did something else to punish him, it was hard to guarantee that Lord Wang would not be angry with him.

I didn't expect her to speak for Lord Wang, Gu Zhixing was a little surprised.

He looked at Su Mian, who was "upright", with great interest, and said, "Then what does Ah Mian want me to do?" ”

Ask me?

Su Mian was slightly stunned.

He asked casually, but he didn't expect Su Mian to really think about it seriously.

Gu Zhi's temperament and temperament in dealing with people and things, who doesn't know who doesn't know about the whole West Sage? Presumably, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also had a deep prejudice against him, and that Lord Wang must be the first to bear the brunt.

Rather than that, it would be better to ......

"I guess the prince must have said a few words about that lord, didn't he?" Su Mian asked.

Gu Zhixing's words in the court today are not just a few words? But he didn't need to talk to Su Mian about these things, he just raised his eyebrows, and he should acquiesce.

"Then in this case, it is better for the prince to send some gifts to the prince's mansion, then the prince will definitely have a different opinion of the prince after accepting it, and if he wants to say bad things about the prince in the future, he will definitely consider it before speaking."

I didn't expect her to think of such a notice, which really surprised Gu Zhixing.

"What if I don't agree?" He asked rhetorically, playing with the wine glass in his hand.

I didn't take action to clean up the old man, who was already very face-saving, and I actually wanted to give gifts to his house?

Su Mian didn't know where the patience came from, so she continued to persuade: "But if you really send some gifts to the past, there are indeed only benefits, no harm." ”

"And didn't the prince let me make up my mind just now, why didn't he listen to me now?"

Su Mian was a little helpless but finalized the matter in a firm tone: "Anyway, just listen to me!" The prince sent someone to give some gifts at will, not too expensive! Just so-so! ”

Seeing that she had settled this matter on her own, Gu Zhixing's expression suddenly became helpless and doting, since his Ah Mian said so, it was not impossible to send some gifts that were not light or heavy.

"Okay, then let someone send something casually."

Seeing that Gu Zhixing finally agreed, Su Mian breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, in this way, the old man's life could be regarded as temporarily saved......

Just when Su Mian just wanted to grab the chopsticks and continue eating, his hand was suddenly grabbed.

Gu Zhixing looked at Su Mian, and only felt how much he liked it.

His Amian will always be so kind, let himself sink for her willingly.

"Lord, I'm hungry......" Somewhat flustered by his affectionate eyes, Su Mian tried to move his wrist, looking very hungry.

Why do I think Gu Zhixing's eyes have been getting weirder and weirder recently?

It feels like you're going to eat someone at any moment......

Thinking that she had not eaten well for half a day, Gu Zhixing let go of her wrist that was holding her.

Su Mian lowered her head and ate, deliberately avoiding Gu Zhixing's eyes.

After lunch, the two of them returned to the palace slowly.

Su Mian was already sleepy, and as soon as she returned to the dormitory, she fell on the bed very consciously.

Gu Zhixing still had some official business to deal with, so he rested with her for a while, and then he turned over lightly and got out of bed and walked towards the study where he handled official business on weekdays.

Thinking about what happened at the dinner table just now, Gu Zhixing asked people to call the housekeeper.

"Prepare some gifts such as calligraphy and paintings, and send them to the prefect's mansion immediately, saying that they are to apologize for the morning." He commanded in a low voice.

The old steward was slightly stunned, but he still quickly agreed, and immediately asked people to prepare, but he muttered a little in his heart, the prince and Lord Wang Zhiqiu have always been incompatible, why do you suddenly have to prepare any gifts for apology today?

Is this a sudden sexual change?

But no matter how much he doubted in his heart, the old steward didn't dare to ask a word in front of Zhixing.

Gu Zhixing's order, they just had to obey it.

……

In the Baoyue Building, Lu Zhe sat alone in front of the window seat and drank the last sip of wine in the cup.

Gu Zhixing was furious at the court for defending Su Mian, which caused the dissatisfaction of many old ministers in the court.

Lu Zhe snorted disdainfully, and threw the wine glass in his hand on the table.

Su Mian...... It's all because of her......

Thinking of Gu Zhixing's appearance of defending Su Mian in front of him that day, Lu Zhe's eyes crossed with a touch of determination.

There is no more land green dragon in the West Saint. This is not a joke, since Gu Zhixing said that day that he would go to see him again when he was sober, then he would go again.

Inside the palace.

As soon as Gu Zhixing put down the brush in his hand, he received a report from Xiao Si.

"Lord Wang, Young Master Lu is here."

"Lu Zhe? Let him in. Gu Zhixing got up and walked to the courtyard, and just as he sat down at the table, Lu Zhe strode in from outside the courtyard.

"You're drinking again?"

Before anyone approached, Gu Zhixing smelled the smell of wine on his body, but he was helpless.

Since the death of General Lu, Lu Zhe has been drunk and dreamed of death in Baoyue Tower without incident, and no one can persuade him.

"It's okay, I'm not drunk." Lu Zhe stood in place and did not sit down, he came today to explain the last incident clearly with Gu Zhixing.

The two confronted each other silently in the courtyard, one standing and one sitting, one black and one white, and neither of them spoke first.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Zhe was just about to speak, when the old housekeeper suddenly walked in from outside the courtyard: "Lord Wang, the apology gifts to be sent to Lord Wang's mansion are all ready, do you want to see it?" ”

"No need, just send it to you." Gu Zhixing nodded lightly, and then turned his head to look at Lu Zhe.

"Or do you want to talk to me about those things that day?" He frowned and looked at Lu Zhe.

Lu Zhe didn't speak, looking at the direction the old butler left thoughtfully.

You heard me right, right?

Gu Zhixing actually asked people to prepare an apology for Wang Zhiqiu?

Didn't he always be with the king......

As soon as his mind moved, Lu Zheben's somewhat frustrated mood suddenly became high.

Since Gu Zhixing knows the apology, it means that everything can still be saved!
