Today's palace banquet, the four princes and Gu Hengzhou are definitely the dragons and phoenixes among people, although Shen Bai is a little inferior, but he is also a heavy minister, he is not worthy of the princess, and the young lady of the family in Hanjing is definitely qualified, but she is still young, and she is not yet at the age of being in a hurry to marry a wife and have children.

Hu Xuan's intention to make peace with Zhaoling was obvious, but before Emperor Hengde could say anything, he rushed to remind Hu Xuanxiang to look at Chenglong's fast son-in-law, as if Zhaoling couldn't wait to marry Yuexi.

Jiang De'an's words successfully quieted Hu Xuan, he remembered the main purpose of his trip, and slowly restrained the unkind aura on his body.

Zhao Chou also knew about the relationship, and when he heard this, he looked at Zhao Che and then at Gu Hengzhou, and said with great interest: "The order of the eldest and youngest in Zhaoling is very important, if the king wants to be close, only my imperial brother and this prince of Zhenguo are suitable here, I don't know which of them the princess and the king prefer?" ”

Which one do you prefer?

Fourth Prince, do you think that the crown prince and the prince of Zhenguo are radishes bought on the street, and they will be left to the people of the Yuexi royal family to choose?

Shen Bai wanted to roll his eyes, but Zhao Chewen laughed: "Fourth brother, now Yuexi wants to make peace with Zhaoling, and it is not known whether Zhaoling will agree to make peace with him. ”

These words are not only reminding Zhao Chou, but also reminding Jiang De'an, Jiang De'an chuckled in his heart, before the Yuexi envoy arrived, he knew that Hu Xuan would bring a princess into Beijing, and also discussed this matter with Emperor Hengde in the imperial study, Emperor Hengde did not have any dissatisfaction at that time, he thought that this marriage was a matter of course, and only after listening to Zhao Che's words did he realize that something seemed to have happened.

Jiang Dean subconsciously glanced at Shen Bai, and always felt that this change was caused by this young man named Shen Bai.

Shen Bai lowered her eyes and stood obediently, her tongue was injured, she couldn't say a word, these messy things had nothing to do with her half of the copper plate.

Zhao Chou's brain was not as good as Jiang De'an's, he didn't think so deeply, he instinctively didn't want to take responsibility for himself, and raised his voice: "What does the imperial brother mean by this?" Could it be that the royal brother has long been in his heart and doesn't want to marry this Yuexi princess, but the royal brother said it in public like this, it is a little too much to give the king a son. ”

Zhao Chou insisted on pulling this matter to the level that was not conducive to the harmony between the two countries, just like he should have framed Shen Bai for breaking his vase that night.

Zhao Che's face was calm, his eyes swept over Zhao Chou and Prime Minister Li Deren lightly, and finally landed on the wine glass in front of him, and said softly: "It's not that this palace doesn't give the king a son, but that the father has not yet made up his mind on this matter, fourth brother, you are so impatient, don't you take your father in your eyes?" ”

Zhao Chou's face was about to watch a good show, and the smile on his face suddenly froze.

The Yuexi envoys only stayed in Hanjing for a few days and left, and if they were offended, they were offended, but Emperor Hengde was their father, and he was the king with the highest status in Zhaoling, what was the crime of not taking him seriously?

This hat is buttoned down, no matter how hard Zhao Chou's family background is, he can't afford it, not to mention that Emperor Hengde only warned Zhao Chou the day before yesterday because of Shen Bai's matter.

Zhao Chou's back was soaked in cold sweat, Li Deren was also empty-hearted, and he couldn't wait to immediately plug Zhao Chou's mouth with something, he glared at Zhao Chou viciously several times, Zhao Chou hurriedly said to Emperor Hengde: "Father, the son has no such intention, it is the imperial brother who thinks about things too seriously." ”

Emperor Hengde glanced at Zhao Chou with a cold look in his eyes, and said half-warning and half-reprimanding: "The envoys of all countries are here, Jingyuan must be cautious in his words and deeds." ”

This is in disguise, I feel that what Zhao Chou said just now is wrong, Zhao Chou lowered his head, his attitude was more sincere, and said: "Erchen remember." ”

Emperor Hengde didn't reprimand too much, and turned his eyes to Hu Xuan and said: "The reputation of Zhaoling's most important daughter's family, I believe that the king brought the princess here to congratulate me on my birthday. ”

The daughters of ordinary people want to marry, they all need to be hired by three media and six appointments, and it is natural for countries to pay more attention to etiquette before they pay attention to it, but it is not uncommon for people to directly bring people to see each other, people have already come all the way, and staying in Hanjing directly can also save the trouble of picking up relatives back and forth, which is beneficial to both countries.

Hu Xuan also felt that there would be no problems in this matter, and he was very confident all the way, but when Emperor Hengde opened his mouth, he politely refused this family business.

Hu Xuan couldn't help but say: "The capital of the western part of the country is thousands of miles away from Hanjing, and the correspondence takes a long time, and the expression is not necessarily accurate. ”

Emperor Hengde followed this topic and asked, "What does the king want?" ”

Emperor Hengde was calm and moderate, and Hu Xuan was not sure what he thought for a while, so he hesitated for a moment and said truthfully: "This king knows that Zhaoling is the most polite and disciplined, and this king only has this one daughter under his knees, and regards her as a pearl in his hand.

The gifts brought with her this time will be kept as her dowry, and when the king returns to Yuexi, he will definitely give her a rich dowry, and as for the dowry, it will be drawn up by the officials of your country's Ministry of Rites. ”

This was done in the previous life, because Ku Xuan wanted to stay to watch the ceremony, and the marriage of Zhao Che and Ku Yuelan was planned very quickly, just in conjunction with the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, although it was a side concubine, the whole wedding was as grand as the queen ceremonial system.

However, after Hu Xuan returned to Yuexi, he did not offer any rich dowry, but Niu Tou asked Hu Chi to lead troops to attack Yuanfeng County, kill Zhenguo Gong, tear up the harmony between the two countries, and make this marriage symbolizing the friendship between the two countries a big joke.

Emperor Hengde asked, "Is the king's request finished?" ”

Hu Xuan touched his chin and thought seriously, still wondering if he had missed something, Emperor Hengde turned his head to look at Gu Tingge and asked: "Zhenwu, since you took charge of the world's soldiers and horses, how many grains, grass, and people have been plundered by Yuexi in Zhaoling, and how many soldiers have died in battle?" ”

Emperor Hengde's tone was gentle, as if he had not seen Zhenguo Gong for many years, and the old people had reunited, and it was natural to talk after being drunk.

The people present widened their eyes in surprise, Hu Xuan was here to talk about the peace between the two countries, why did His Majesty's tone sound like he wanted to settle old accounts with Hu Xuan?

Gu Tingge was also a little surprised, but he didn't think much about it, got up and said truthfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the old minister took over the world's soldiers and horses at the age of twenty-five, and it has been twenty-four years, and in twenty-four years, Zhaoling and Yuexi had two hundred and thirty-one large and small conflicts, lost 3,851 stones of grain and grass, abducted 1,568 innocent people, and killed 6,872 soldiers. ”

These numbers are increasing year by year, and any official of the Ministry of War will be speechless when suddenly asked such a question, but Gu Tingge answered it in one mouth, as if these numbers had rolled in his heart thousands of times every day.

Gu Tingge's voice was calm and powerful, as loud as a bell, enough for everyone present to hear it clearly.

Hu Xuan's face became more and more ugly, and he said forcefully: "Your Majesty, these are all things in the past, and now we want to seek peace." ”

Emperor Hengde has been an emperor for so many years, and this kind of thing is also easy to do, and when he heard Hu Xuan say this, he immediately smiled gently: "The king doesn't have to be nervous, I just asked casually, and I didn't mean anything else." ”

Hu Xuan smiled dryly, and didn't think that Emperor Hengde's words had any credibility.

Emperor Hengde continued: "I have succeeded to the throne for many years, I have always been diligent in government and love the people, those innocent people and soldiers are no longer alive, it has become a string of cold numbers, I can't tear up the peace with Yuexi for them, but if I pretend that nothing has happened and marry Yuexi directly, I am afraid that it will make the souls of these people uneasy." ”

Hu Xuan asked, "Then what does Your Majesty want?" ”

Emperor Hengde said: "People can't be resurrected after death, and I don't want to embarrass the king, if the king really wants to be married, it is better to exchange all the things plundered from Zhaoling over the years into grain and grass for the princess to marry." ”

Are they all exchanged for grain and grass?

Even if a person's life is counted as one stone, it will add up to more than 10,000 stones.

The grain harvest in Yuexi has always been very bad, the reason why they will start a war to grab grain is because there is no food, Emperor Hengde will ask for more than 10,000 stone of grain at this time, where can Hu Xuan find it?

Hu Xuan's face stiffened ugly, and he was bubbling with cold air all over his body, and he almost gritted his teeth and asked, "Your Majesty, you are so difficult, you don't want to agree to this marriage at all, right?" ”

Emperor Hengde said: "It's not that I disagree, it's just that so many soldiers are shrouded in the battlefield and can't return to their hometown, so I always have to give them an explanation." ”

Hu Xuan said in a rough voice: "There is not so much grain in Yuexi. ”

If you don't think well about developing agriculture, of course there will be no food, and you will be justified in doing some things to kill people and sell goods?

Emperor Hengde maintained the noble and majestic dignity of the emperor, and did not refute Hu Xuan, and said with a smile: "I didn't ask the king to take out so much grain at once, if the king is in trouble, I can ask the prime minister to collect the good planting experience accumulated in Zhaoling over the years and bring it back to Yuexi to help the people of Yuexi increase grain production, how about it?" ”

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, and good grain planting experience can benefit future generations, when it comes to this, Hu Xuan has no excuse to refuse, so he can only answer with a straight face: "If Your Majesty is willing to share these experiences, it is very good, but whether these experiences are also applicable in Yuexi, it will take some time to see the results, and I am afraid that the matter of peace and relatives will have to be postponed and discussed." ”

As soon as he said that he wanted to return the food, Hu Xuan's flesh hurt, and he was not so eager to even make peace.

Emperor Hengde smiled even more on his face, and raised his glass and said: "What the king wants is just for the two countries to live in harmony, as long as the king does not start a war, Zhaoling will naturally always uphold the principle of good neighborliness and friendship, and there is no need to use the children's lifelong events as bargaining chips, and respect peaceful coexistence!" ”

Emperor Hengde said this beautifully, and everyone raised their glasses and drank this glass of wine.

After drinking, the banquet officially began, no one spoke anymore, everyone ate quietly and had different thoughts.

It's just that Gu Tingge and Zhou Deshan are obviously happier than usual, both of them are used to seeing the bloody wind and rain on the battlefield, and they know too well what it means to focus on the overall situation.

Because Zhaoling never took the initiative to start a war, Yuexi has become more and more presumptuous over the years, and after the sneak attack, he hid behind the border between the two countries, and regarded the border between the two countries as his own hole card.

Today, Emperor Hengde rejected Yuexi Heqin's request for those soldiers who died in battle, telling Hu Xuan in disguise that Zhaoling would not bully the weak, but he would not always tolerate it without a temper!

At this time at the banquet, it was inconvenient for the two to talk, and they could only drink each other in small cups, which was really not enough fun.

Emperor Hengde noticed it and said directly to the palace people: "Change the big bowl for the Duke of Guo, Captain Zhou and His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, and send a few jars of wine!" ”

Gu Tingge was already very happy today, and when he heard this, he hurriedly stood up and said, "The ministers still have official business, and it is inconvenient to drink, thank Your Majesty for your kindness." ”

This is reasonable, Emperor Hengde was about to take back his fate, Zhao Che immediately said: "Father's birthday banquet, the whole country is happy, the prince does not have to wronged himself, Zhaoling is not a successor, if anyone dares to make trouble, he will regret coming to this world!" ”

Zhao Che's words shocked not only the people of the envoy group, but also everyone present.

Zhao was completely full of anger and had the wind of a strong country, and Gu Tingge and Zhou Deshan's eyes flashed with relief.

With the prince like this, there will be no big chaos in Zhaoling in the future.

Gu Tingge put aside his worries and laughed loudly: "His Royal Highness Prince Xie is considerate!" ”

Zhao Che bowed his head and said to Gu Hengzhou: "Xingyuan has also worked hard in the past few days, let's have a few drinks with Lord Guogong and Captain Zhou." ”

Shen Bai was beside him and couldn't wait to cheer and applaud Zhao Che, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too wise, it's good for Brother Gu to drink more, he won't go to His Majesty today to expose me if he's drunk!

Zhao Che spoke, Gu Hengzhou naturally would not refuse, and in front of everyone, he accompanied Gu Tingge and Zhou Deshan to drink bowl after bowl.

The happier they were, the worse Hu Xuan's face became, and he didn't eat two bites of food, and quickly found an excuse to leave the table, and the others were also shocked by the scene just now, and they didn't have the heart to gossip, so they left after eating and left under the guidance of the palace people.

Gu Tingge and Zhou Deshan let go of the drink as they spoke, and they all knew it in their hearts, and when the envoys were gone, Emperor Hengde asked Gu Hengzhou: "Didn't you say that you have something important to report to me?" ”

Shen Bai's heart tightened, Gu Hengzhou was pouring wine for Gu Tingge, he looked at him blankly when he heard the words, and asked, "What did Your Majesty say?" ”

Gu Tingge knocked on the door of Gu Hengzhou's head, and said to Emperor Hengde apologetically: "Your Majesty, the dog is not good at drinking, he is already drunk, after he wakes up tomorrow, the old minister will escort him to the front of the palace to ask His Majesty for guilt, Chen Qing's original case." ”

Emperor Hengde was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "It turns out that Xingyuan is drunk like this, I watched him grow up, and it seems that it is the first time I have seen him drunk in so many years." ”

Gu Tingge also smiled: "This kid looks like me in everything, but the amount of alcohol is too bad, and he doesn't look like me at all." ”

Emperor Hengde was also very happy today, and said gently: "When he goes to Lingzhou to take up his post, he will be able to practice a lot of alcohol in the army." ”

Gu Hengzhou put down the wine jar and muttered in a low voice: "I don't drink." ”

Emperor Hengde was amused, and Shen Bai's heart hung in his throat, for fear that Gu Hengzhou would make something big with the power of wine, but he heard Zhao Che say: "Brother Gu is drunk, why don't you send him back to rest soon?" ”

Shen Bai had never felt that Zhao Che's voice was so pleasant, and he shouted a few times in his heart His Royal Highness the Prince, Chitose Chitose Chitose, rushed to Gu Hengzhou's side, grabbed his arm and put the person on himself, smiled at Gu Tingge and Emperor Hengde flatteringly, turned around and left.

Gu Hengzhou staggered, lowered his head and sniffed at Shen Bai's neck, and asked in a low voice like the previous two times, "Shen Bai?" ”

Yes yes

Shen Bai nodded, Gu Hengzhou didn't hear her speak, his neck was itchy by her hair, and he asked again: "Shen Bai?" ”

Oops, it's really me, don't ask!

Shen Bai couldn't speak, and covered Gu Hengzhou's mouth with one free hand.

Just now frightened, her hands were a little cold, and after covering Gu Hengzhou's mouth, all the hot and hot snorts hit the back of her hands, which was amazingly hot.

Shen Bai was a little uncomfortable, and subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but he was caught by Gu Hengzhou and couldn't move, and his waist was also clamped, and he instantly turned into Gu Hengzhou hugging her and walking forward.

Gu Hengzhou seemed to smile lightly, and his originally thin and cool lips swept softly across his palm, arousing a tingling itch.

Shen Bai's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously swallowed his saliva, not knowing whether it was the wine that sprayed from Gu Hengzhou's nose or the person who was hungry for him.

After the two left, Emperor Hengde looked at Gu Tingge and then at Zhao Che, and couldn't help but ask Gu Tingge: "Zhenwu, have you heard those rumors in Beijing since you came back?" ”

Gu Tingge asked, "What rumors is Your Majesty talking about?" ”

Of course, it's the rumor that the kid of the Shen family likes men and is obsessed with your son!

Emperor Hengde said in his heart, thinking of Shen Bai and Zhao Chou's messy things in the past few days, this matter insisted on continuing to be broken, but I was afraid that it would not be clear, Emperor Hengde could only shake his head: "It's good that you haven't heard of it, it's all people who are idle and have nothing to do behind their backs." ”

Gu Tingge nodded, and didn't ask how those nonsense words reached Emperor Hengde's ears.

Zhou Deshan has been in the capital, probably guessed what Emperor Hengde wanted to say, and was about to take over the conversation, Zhao Che said coldly: "Father, the son has something to do." ”

Emperor Hengde asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhao Che said: "On the eve of my father's birthday, the Guogong Mansion met an assassin, fortunately, the assassin of the Guogong Mansion was strong and captured an assassin alive. ”

Although Gu Tingge and Zhou Deshan both let go of drinking, they had already practiced the amount of alcohol, and they only drank so much to the point of being slightly drunk, as soon as they heard Zhao Che's words, the two immediately sobered up, exchanged glances with each other, and their expressions became cold.

A murderous aura spread silently.

Emperor Hengde drank another glass of wine and said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, let's take a look together." ”

The group left from Huayi Palace and went to Zisheng Pavilion together, they did not avoid people's eyes and ears on this trip, it looked like they had drunk to the fullest, and went to Zisheng Pavilion to see the scenery.

Zisheng Pavilion is the tallest building in the whole palace, very few people know, there is a dark room in the pavilion, there is a dark passage under this dark room just communicates with Dali Temple.

The secret passage was very long, and it was inconvenient for them to disappear for too long, and Zheng Yue, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, had already escorted the assassin to the dark room of Zisheng Pavilion.

Trespassing was a felony, and the Assassin was tortured in the prison, his shoulder blades and lute bones were pierced with iron hooks, leaving four bloody holes, and he was flogged and burned with various wounds.

As soon as Emperor Hengde and the others entered the dark room, they smelled a strong smell of blood, Gu Tingge and Zhou Deshan were used to seeing this kind of scene, and they didn't feel anything, Emperor Hengde had not seen this situation for many years, and his brows furrowed suddenly.

Zheng Yue and the two servants of Dali Temple were about to salute immediately, and Emperor Hengde asked in a deep voice: "Don't be in a hurry to salute, what's the situation now?" ”

Zheng Yue lowered his head and said seriously: "This assassin trespassed into the Guogong Mansion on the eve of His Majesty's birthday banquet and was captured by the guards of the Guogong Mansion. ”

Gong E of Yingze Palace went to the Guogong Mansion and was recognized by Shen Bai as his godsister.

This matter is a bit tortuous, but judging from the uproar in the city these days, it is not difficult to guess why.

Emperor Hengde did not speak with a calm face, Zheng Yue continued: "Weichen used a heavy punishment on this assassin, last night, this assassin confessed, saying that he was ordered by the Fourth Highness to destroy the mouth, and the Fourth Highness's subordinates also trained many dead soldiers like him. ”

Killing a little Gong'e's mouth is not a big deal, even if Zhao Chou really did something to Shen Bai, Emperor Hengde can still spare him, but privately training dead soldiers and secretly cultivating his own power, this kind of thing cannot be tolerated.

The person was caught from the Guogong Mansion, and now that he confessed such a big thing, Gu Tingge asked with a calm face: "Since he is a dead soldier, why didn't he commit suicide on the spot when he was arrested?" ”

Zhao Che also had dead soldiers around him, and these people were originally selected and trained by Gu Tingge and the current commander of the Praetorian Guard.

The Dead have existed for a long time, and they are a group of people who regard death as their home, and if they can't complete the tasks assigned by the above, or if they are caught, in order not to expose the plans above, these people will immediately find a way to commit suicide.

Zheng Yue said: "This assassin hid poison in his mouth, and he also wanted to take poison and commit suicide at that time, but he was captured by two guards who were serving His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, and they quickly prevented the assassin from committing suicide, and he was caught alive." ”

The other people, Gu Tingge, would not be gullible, and they still believed in Gu Sangu and Gu Si very much.

Gu Tinggo looked at the assassin, and even though he was covered in bruises, it still made people feel that he was too easy to let go.

Gu Tingge asked softly, "What criminal law did Lord Zheng use against him?" ”

Zheng Yue said: "Returning to the country, this person has very hard bones and has always refused to confess, and the lower officials used the bone crushing method on him. ”

The so-called broken bones are to use a small hammer to break people's bones little by little.

This criminal law is very torturous, it will not hurt people's vital points for a while, and the pain can even last for more than a dozen hours.

Gu Tingge realized that the soles of the assassin's feet and both hands had become bare, and the missing parts should have been smashed into pulp.

It seems normal that such torture cannot be endured.

Gu Tingge wanted to ask again, but Emperor Hengde groaned: "Zhenwu, you and Xingyuan were not in the Guogong Mansion at the time of the accident, this matter has nothing to do with you, how to distinguish the authenticity is what Dali Temple should do!" ”

The implication is that if there is an unjust, false and wrongful judgment, Dali Temple should bear the consequences.

Zheng Yue was drenched in cold sweat, and immediately knelt down and said in a deep voice: "Weichen will not dare to deceive even if he dies!" ”

Emperor Hengde didn't let Zheng Yue get up, and looked at the assassin and asked, "If you tell me what you told me in Dali Temple before, I can spare your life." ”

The assassin was angry and breathless, his head moved, and after a while, he said weakly: "A traitor is not worthy to live in the world!" ”

Speaking of the whole person, a huge force suddenly erupted, and he stood up from the ground all of a sudden, Gu Tingge and Zhou Deshan instinctively blocked in front of Emperor Hengde, but the assassin did not want to be unfavorable to Emperor Hengde, he directly hit the wall, plasma splattered, and the assassin's head was knocked into collapse, and he died on the spot.

Zheng Yue knelt on the ground, completely unexpectedly that such a change would happen, his body trembled, and he looked at Emperor Hengde in panic and asked, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, are you alright? ”

Emperor Hengde's face was gloomy, and he ordered in a cold voice: "Present his confession!" ”

Zheng Yue hurriedly took out the confession from his sleeve and presented it to Emperor Hengde with both hands.

In the confession, the assassin only said that there were still dead soldiers under Zhao Chou, but it is not clear how many there are, where they are hidden, and by whom they are trained and supported, but in addition to this assassination, the assassin confessed that there were two other missions before, one was to ambush Zhou Deshan, and the other was to ambush Zhao Che in Donghengguo.

Because both missions ended in failure, the other dead soldiers who did not accept the mission were punished.

The more Emperor Hengde looked at this confession, the more gloomy and terrifying his face became, and after a long time, he put the confession away and said to Zheng Yue: "Keep his whole body and bury it, this case will not be investigated for the time being, and don't make a noise." ”

Zheng Yue responded again and again, and asked the two officers of Dali Temple to drag the body away and return to Dali Temple from the secret passage.

When the others left, Emperor Hengde looked at Gu Tingge and asked, "Does Zhenwu think this confession is credible?" ”

This confession almost bluntly accused the fourth prince Zhao Chou of plotting to seize the throne, Zhou Deshan's heart jumped, Gu Tingge knelt down in front of Emperor Hengde, and said sonorously: "Regardless of whether this confession is true or not, the old minister is loyal to His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince, and will never betray!" ”

Zhou Deshan also knelt down and said seriously: "Weichen has no second heart for His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Emperor Hengde bent down and personally helped Gu Tingge and Zhou Deshan up, and said in a cold and hard tone: "Zhaoling has been stable and peaceful for hundreds of years, and I will never let the children of the royal family kill each other This kind of thing happens under my nose." ”

Zhao Che arched his hand and said: "Father, rest assured, my son will never brutalize his siblings." ”

……

After Gu Hengzhou got drunk, he drank very well, and he looked no different from someone who was fine, and Shen Bai was directly taken to Chengxuan Palace by him.

It was already dark, and there were lights all over the palace, and the palace people were very surprised to see that Gu Hengzhou had brought Shen Bai back, and wanted to come forward to help, Gu Hengzhou pulled Shen Bai's hand down, and said to the palace people: "Don't wait, retreat!" ”

After Gu Hengzhou finished speaking, he took Shen Bai's hand to cover his mouth, the palace people looked at them suspiciously, Gu Hengzhou ignored it, and directly took Shen Bai into his bedroom, kicked the door, and sat on the bed with Shen Bai.

Shen Bai was held on his lap, feeling like a child leaning on his arms, wanting to put his hand down, Gu Hengzhou still held on, but his eyes were staring at her, as if he hadn't seen her for a long time and didn't know her.

Shen Bai pointed to his mouth with his other hand, signaling that he couldn't speak now, Brother Gu, don't make trouble, but Gu Hengzhou somehow misunderstood what she meant, let go of her hand and leaned closer.

Staring at her lips and asking, "What's wrong?" ”

Injured, Brother Gu, have you forgotten?

Shen Bai secretly complained, Gu Hengzhou pinched her cheek and pouted her mouth.

Shen Bai blinked his eyes, not knowing what he wanted to do, Gu Hengzhou lowered his head suddenly, pressed his lips against her, and then blew.

Shen Bai's cheeks were blown up, and the whole person froze, Gu Hengzhou seemed to have found some novel and interesting toys, and blew them a few more times.

Shen Bai: "......"

Brother Gu, I can't help it if you play like this again!

Shen Bai roared secretly, Gu Hengzhou couldn't hear it, and after playing for a while, he retreated, pinching Shen Bai's chin to make her open her mouth.

There was no light in the house, so Gu Hengzhou watched so seriously, observing the injury to her tongue.

Brother Gu, you are not sharp-eyed, how can you see this.

Shen Bai said secretly, and the next moment, the hot and humid breath was close again, and the soft touch was not only on the lips, but also extended to the mouth.

Shen Bai's eyes widened in shock, and he felt that his injured tongue hurt a little, and it was gently resisted.

Shen Bai instinctively took a breath of cold air, and then felt that he was being licked.

It was very light, like temptation and pity.

Gu Hengzhou retreated, his eyes were as black as ink, absorbing her whole heart, Gu Hengzhou asked in a dumb voice, "It still hurts?" ”

Shen Bai's snort and mouth were full of the rich aroma of wine and his cold breath, his brain was mixed into a mess by his slightly hoarse voice like emotion, he didn't know how to answer, he subconsciously swallowed his saliva, Gu Hengzhou lowered his head again, domineering and forcefully invaded his breath into Shen Bai's lungs, but he was like a beast and extremely pitiful to help her lick her wounds.

Shen Bai's whole heart was crisp, and he couldn't push it away and didn't want to push Gu Hengzhou away, so he only hugged her neck and raised his head to bear it.

After a while, there was a knock on the door outside, and the two of them had already lost their breath, and no one was distracted, but the people outside were extremely persistent and kept knocking on the door.

After a long time, it was Shen Bai who came back to his senses first and pushed Gu Hengzhou.

There was no light in the house, and so many palace people in Chengxuan Palace saw her and Gu Hengzhou coming back together, and staying in the house for too long would inevitably lead to reverie.

Gu Hengzhou let go of Shen Bai, Shen Bai just wanted to grab his handwriting, and the whole person was put on the bed by Gu Hengzhou, I don't know if he was afraid that she would run away, Gu Hengzhou directly rolled her into a silkworm chrysalis with a quilt.

Shen Bai: "......"

Brother Gu, let me write well, otherwise something big will happen!

Shen Bai shouted in his heart, Gu Hengzhou didn't feel anything, got up and walked over to open the door, the palace people glanced into the room, it was dark and couldn't see anything, Gu Hengzhou's eyes were cold, and his voice was hoarse and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”

The palace people hurriedly lowered their heads and said respectfully: "The servant went to the imperial dining room to ask for a sobering soup for His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World should drink it while it is hot, and the Lord in charge said that His Highness does not need to patrol the night tonight, and someone has already gone to help His Highness carry hot water." ”

Gu Hengzhou took the sobering soup and was about to close the door, but the palace man said stubbornly: "Your Highness, the slave will help you light the lamp." ”

Boom!

Gu Hengzhou closed the door directly, and the palace man's nose was almost hit, so he didn't dare to say anything more, and hurriedly retreated.

Gu Hengzhou returned to the bed with the decanting soup, Shen Bai moved to the side of the bed with difficulty, and was about to speak, Gu Hengzhou couldn't help but feed her the bowl of decanting soup with his mouth.

Shen Bai couldn't swallow, and was choked, very speechless, and it wasn't that she was drunk, what did Brother Gu do when she poured her sobering soup?

Xu is hearing what she was thinking, Gu Hengzhou said lightly: "Don't do to others what you don't want to do to yourself." ”

Shen Bai: "......"

Brother Gu, didn't you feed you medicine in this way before taking revenge on me?

Just thinking about it, Gu Hengzhou pulled Shen Bai out of the quilt again, handed her the fire fold, and said, "Light the lamp." ”

Yes, this is to call her as a maid again.

Shen Bai resigned himself to taking the fire fold, lit the oil lamp on the table, and lit the two lamps on the pillar, and the room lit up instantly.

Gu Hengzhou stood in the room with his hands in his hands, looked at her with a serious face and asked, "That's how you have been serving Uncle Guo in Lingzhao Palace these days?" ”

Brother Gu, I am also a person with a head and a face in Hanjing, don't always think that I am doing things to serve people behind your back!

Shen Bai rolled his eyes, and Gu Hengzhou asked again: "When you went to Dongheng Kingdom before, you served His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to bathe, right?" ”

Shen Bai couldn't deny this matter, Gu Hengzhou asked coldly: "Does Your Highness also know your true identity?" ”

There are eyes and ears everywhere in the palace, and this kind of thing can't be said nonsense.

Shen Bai panicked, and immediately rushed over to cover Gu Hengzhou's mouth and nose, and squeezed his eyebrows at him.

Brother Gu, after drinking so much wine, let's lie down and rest, don't talk nonsense, you'll die!

Gu Hengzhou obediently shut up and looked down at Shen Bai, his pupils moving with Shen Bai's eyes.

Gu Hengzhou lowered his head and leaned closer, Shen Bai subconsciously leaned back, Gu Hengzhou grabbed her waist and pinched her waist.

The palace people outside the door brought hot water and called respectfully: "Your Royal Highness, the hot water has been delivered, do you want to bathe now?" ”

Gu Hengzhou pulled Shen Bai's hand down and said softly, "Yes." ”

After speaking, let go of Shen Bai and went over to call the door, the palace people carried the hot water into the ear room, and Gu Hengzhou also carried Shen Bai in.

Shen Bai tried his best to make his expression look normal, but Gu Hengzhou didn't care, waited for the palace people to leave, and said to Shen Bai, "I want to bathe." ”

Okay, you're the eldest brother, I'll wait for you to bathe right away!

Fortunately, Gu Hengzhou took off his silver armor when he competed with the Yuexi warriors, saving Shen Bai a lot of effort, she resigned herself to helping Gu Hengzhou untie her belt and take off her shirt, and then looked at Gu Hengzhou's trouser waist with her eyes, and silently asked him if he took it off by himself or if she continued.

Gu Hengzhou didn't answer in a hurry, looked at Shen Bai for a while and asked, "Who painted that album?" ”

He was still very concerned about the answer to this question, Shen Bai raised his right hand and poked the tip of his nose with his index finger.

Who else, of course, painted it herself.

In the whole Hanjing, apart from her, who else has seen so many fire fighting pictures, such a comprehensive posture, and can capture the essence of the characters so accurately?

Gu Hengzhou's eyes narrowed slightly, and the tails of his eyes rose obliquely, revealing two points of danger, and asked, "Have you also seen Zhao Chou's body?" ”

Brother Gu, you really drank too much and floated, you didn't even call the Fourth Highness, just called Zhao Chou.

Shen Bai secretly complained, she had indeed inadvertently seen Zhao Chou without clothes in her previous life, but it was definitely not what Gu Hengzhou thought, and the fire diagram, the posture was like that, even if it was changed to someone else's posture, it was very ambiguous.

Shen Bai now regrets her behavior of biting her tongue, if she doesn't bite her tongue, she will definitely pick herself up at this time, so that she will not be unjustified and looked down on by Gu Hengzhou.

Shen Bai shook his head in denial, but Gu Hengzhou didn't look at her, grabbed Shen Bai's hand and put it on his waist, and asked, "You hugged him like in the painting?" ”

Shen Bai: "......"

Brother Gu, you are making something out of nothing, and there is no excuse for the sin you want to add.

However, the muscles under the palm were firm, the skin was hot, and the feel was really good, so Shen Bai couldn't help but poke it twice.

Gu Hengzhou's expression was cold, and he slapped Shen Bai's hand away in a particularly childish manner and said, "Go touch others, don't touch me!" ”

Shen Bai raised his eyebrows, and slowly came back to his senses, Brother Gu, don't be jealous, right?

Because she fabricated that album out of thin air, so upset?

Shen Bai withdrew his hand and touched his chin, the corners of his mouth rose uncontrollably, and Gu Hengzhou stared at her: "You still have a smile?" ”

Shen Bai shook his head.

Don't dare, you're drunk, you're the biggest, no one can disobey you, okay!

It's already very cold, even if you drink wine, it's easy to catch a cold if you stand here bare-chested, Shen Bai pointed to the hot water, reached out to untie Gu Hengzhou's trouser waist, and didn't take a shower quickly, the water would be cold after a while.

However, before Shen Bai touched Gu Hengzhou's waistband, his hand was grabbed, and the next moment, the whole person was carried and thrown into the bucket.

Shen Bai was defenseless and almost choked, Gu Hengzhou followed into the bath bucket, and the water that was originally seven points full immediately overflowed from the bucket.

The barrel is quite large, but it is very cramped to accommodate two people, Gu Hengzhou is tall and large, and directly occupies most of the space, and Shen Bai can only shrink in the corner.

Her clothes were all wet, her hair was also half wet, her clothes were all glued to her body, and the curves of her thin body were completely exposed.

Gu Hengzhou leaned closer, his hand slid from her neck to her waist, and then to her calf, and said with a cold look in his eyes: "He has touched all these places." ”

Shen Bai shook her head like a rattle, she was really wronged.

Gu Hengzhou clasped the back of her head to prevent her from moving, touched her forehead, touched the tip of his nose, sniffed her breath, and said in a dumb voice: "I know he didn't touch it, but you made the whole city think he touched it." ”

Others think it's someone else's business, Brother Gu, haven't you never cared about the world's gaze?

Shen Bai defended himself in his heart, and heard Gu Hengzhou say again: "You still let the people in the whole city think that you are empathetic and don't fall in love." ”

This sentence sounds inexplicable and makes people feel a little aggrieved.

Shen Bai blinked, but the two were too close to see Gu Hengzhou's expression at all, but when she blinked, she felt as if her eyelashes had touched him.

Gu Hengzhou rubbed the tip of Shen Bai's nose and whispered, "Don't allow it." ”

Shen Bai was puzzled, not understanding what he was talking about, Gu Hengzhou added and explained: "Don't empathize and don't fall in love." ”

He said it reasonably, as if Shen Bai was his personal belongings, Shen Bai's heart was itchy, he hesitated for a while, and wrote on his shoulder: Brother Gu, do you like me?

The hot water was hot, his skin was even hotter than before, and Shen Bai felt like his fingers were writing on a red-hot soldering iron.

She wrote very slowly, afraid that Gu Hengzhou would not understand what she had written.

After Shen Bai finished writing, Gu Hengzhou's thin lips pursed into a line, there was no meaning to speak, Shen Bai hesitated for a while, and wanted to write again, Gu Hengzhou grabbed her hand and said, "I haven't liked anyone, I don't know how to like it." ”

Shen Bai's fingertips trembled, and he heard Gu Hengzhou say again: "But I know, I won't marry you." ”

You won't marry me, and you won't allow me to empathize and don't fall in love? Still playing hooligan?

Shen Bai's eyes narrowed slightly, he pushed Gu Hengzhou, pressed him back against the edge of the barrel, and before he resisted, he attacked the vital point, Gu Hengzhou was defenseless, his neck was bruised, and a muffled snort overflowed from his mouth.
