"Yes, it's mine, it's not me, the old lady's happiness is the most important thing," the lady Shangshu hurriedly said with a smile, and when she lowered her head, her eyes were full of sarcasm and ridicule when she looked at Lin Nianzhen, as well as the pride after the conspiracy succeeded.

Old Madam Gu glanced at Lin Nianzhen and said, "You too, you've been busy for so long, you should be tired, go down and rest, don't wait in front of you," After speaking, she immediately turned her face away and looked at the scenery in another place, she didn't want to look at her anymore, she was ashamed, right?

"Yes, old lady, my daughter-in-law has retired."

Lin Nianzhen was full of unconvinced, but she could only give up, and left the scene in a huff, and when she left, she didn't forget to hit the lady Shangshu hard.

It's all her fault, she originally had a good time pleasing the old lady, and she thought that she could slowly change the relationship for the better and let her status in the Gu family rise a little, after all, everyone knows that these nephews of the Gu family are the most filial, and His Majesty also respects the cousin of the former emperor very much and treats each other politely.

It is a fact that if you win the favor of the old lady, you will win the favor of everyone.

Xiao Jingyi obviously felt the awkward atmosphere here, so she pulled Gu Nantian over with her. As soon as he came over, he put his arm around Mrs. Gu's neck, sat beside her, and said, "Grandma, who is this who upsets grandma?"

Gu Nantian followed and saluted, "Grandson Nantian has seen grandma,"

Old Madam Gu saw Gu Nantian and Xiao Jingyi smiling slightly, her face was kind, and she said, "It's Tan'er and Jingyi,"

Everyone knows that Gu Nantian is Mrs. Gu's favorite distressed grandson, and it is also the most reassuring one, in the three years that she went to Guanwai, Mrs. Gu can be said to be always strange, always sending people to send things and letters to the past, and he is also Xiao Jingyi's favorite man, and now he is the most concerned young talent in Nandu, with a bright future, and he is the person who is most likely to become the future head of the Gu family, plus he is handsome and very chic, I don't know how many women in Nandu have been intoxicated.

"Grandma, don't be angry, Brother Nanting and I will be worried and sad," Xiao Jingyi said coquettishly, coaxing Mrs. Gu again and again.

Old Madam Gu touched Xiao Jingyi's face, smiled, and said, "Grandma knows that you are the most filial, and as soon as grandma sees us Jingyi, she won't have any worries,"

Mrs. Shangshu just now also took the opportunity to talk to Gu Nantian who was standing on the side, "This is the first time I have seen the seventh prince after returning to Nandu, and my Ru'er also mentioned it before, saying that I haven't seen Nantian's brother for a long time, and I am worried that I am afraid that the seventh prince will forget her, and I am coming today, and I don't know where I am messing around now, I am not serious at all, "She has a son and a daughter with Master Shangshu, the son is called Li Qifeng, and the daughter is called Li Xueru, both of whom have played with Gu Nantian since childhood.

"Xueru loves to make trouble, childlike nature, Mrs. doesn't have to care," Gu Nantian is face is respectful, when Li Xueru was mentioned, Gu Nantian still had a lot of memories, the girl in her memory was very fun-loving, very noisy, just like a boy, always following behind her brother and herself, and Xiao Jingyi was different, she was a very brave and casual girl, and she would not be so delicate.

As soon as Mrs. Shangshu heard this, she looked at Gu Nantian's eyes and couldn't help but have a little more appreciation and affection, and then looked at Xiao Jingyi, who was sitting next to Mrs. Gu with an arrogant face, and thought to herself, she was just an adopted daughter who had died and was fostered by the queen, who had no power and no power, and survived with His Majesty's love, my Xueru is not worse than you.

Then another young lady spoke, "The seventh prince looks a lot haggard and has lost a lot of weight, life outside the gate should be very difficult," her face was full of distress, Gu Nantian didn't know which lady she was, but she was still polite, and said slowly, "Let Mrs. worry, Nan leaning is a man, he should have a lot of experience, it's nothing,"

Then another lady also jokingly said, "The seventh prince is young and promising, he is chic, the princess should be careful, she was robbed, and the daughter of Nandu is worried about this young hero,"

"Who dare!" Xiao Jingyi was like a fur when she heard this, she quickly jumped up, walked to Gu Nantian's side, as if declaring her sovereignty, and held Gu Nantian's arm, but if you look closely, you will find that Gu Nantian subconsciously frowned at that moment, it is obvious that he doesn't particularly like this kind of behavior, and he doesn't particularly like this princess, at least what he means to this princess is not what everyone thinks.

Mrs. Shangshu naturally discovered the abnormality, and she couldn't help but feel a little more sure in her heart.

I heard that a lady took the opportunity to laugh and teas, "Yo, the princess refused to admit it just now, blaming us for making fun of her, and now the fox's tail is suddenly exposed, but what's good?" ”

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and looked at Xiao Jingyi.

Xiao Jingyi's face was flushed, but she still didn't let go of Gu Nan's arm, and just said coquettishly to Old Madam Gu, "Grandma, when will you be able to eat, Jingyi feels hungry," and quickly began to change the topic.

"The princess is accompanied by the seventh son, will she still feel hungry?" Naturally, they won't give up.

Xiao Jingyi was annoyed and angry, and said, "You are making fun of me again," and then cried to Old Madam Gu, "Grandma, you see, they all bullied me," with a look of grievance, very distressing.

"Okay, okay, we can't starve Jingyi," Old Madam Gu played a round, and then commanded Aunt Sun beside her, "Aunt Sun, let them prepare and start the meal," Aunt Sun helped Old Madam Gu up, "Grandma, I'll help you go," Xiao Jingyi also took Old Madam Gu's hand and took her in the direction of the front hall, Gu Nantian naturally followed.

Xiao Jingyi is always very good at coaxing the old lady to be happy.

Aunt Sun stepped aside and said to the rest of the ladies, "Okay, ladies, please move to the front hall."

Then he instructed the other maids and told the other ladies to go to the front hall for dinner.

As soon as Ah Qi took a nap, she heard the sound of a crowd moving, bustling, chattering in the direction where she was standing, should she be planning to leave?

Ah Qi didn't know very well, maybe it was time to start eating, but he just subconsciously woke up, stood to the side, a more corner, and leaned all the way to make a spacious way for them.

Ah Qi thought, it was okay to eat, and after standing for a long time, his legs were really sore, and it was best to end early, after all, he was slapped in vain today, but it was really a wronged and aggrieved thing.

Who would have thought that before Ah Qi came out of the atmosphere he was immersed in, a big incident happened, and it was still a little bloody, still in front of her, her eyes, naked, and bright.

A thick-clothed man with a masked face and a dagger in his hand flew towards the group of people from somewhere, and behind him there was a group of black-clothed men who were also masked somewhere, all holding weapons in their hands, rushing towards a group of men with their claws open, should be disrupting the line of sight, delaying time, and covering for the rough-clothed man who was the leader, because the man was heading towards the group of women and children, and he looked like he was still coming towards the two people who were surrounded in the middle. It's just that I don't know if it's for the old lady of the Gu family or Princess Jingyi who is clinging to her next to her.

Because most of them are a group of noble women and children who are powerless, some of whom may have never seen such a blatant assassination in their lives, so they are all frightened, scattered, scurrying, and from time to time with high screams, so the scene is even more chaotic, and they are beginning to be a little confused who is who, after all, these ladies are wearing one-to-one regular clothes, gorgeous clothes, flowers, chaos, and blindness, but the target of the assassin is very distinct.

Soon the old lady and Xiao Jingyi were single, and I don't know what went wrong, the old lady and Xiao Jingyi were close to each other, holding each other's arms, and not long after, Xiao Jingyi didn't know who hit her and fell to the ground, fortunately, although the old lady is an old woman, she is still tough, and she is also a person who has seen a big scene, but she is very sober, but at this time sobriety is undoubtedly the best goal.

Seeing that the assassins were about to go towards the old lady, this really irritated Ah Qi, it turned out that the target of these assassins was an old lady who was over seventy years old, it was really strange, what was this for?

yes, what's the picture? The old lady has lived for such a long time, she didn't assassinate sooner or later, and now she is over seventy, and the result is like this, isn't it okay to find trouble? Can't you let people die naturally?

Everyone may not have thought that most of the people who came to help when they heard the noise in the front yard ran to protect the lone princess, after all, it was royal blood, and it was in the Gu family's mansion, so there could be no mistake, otherwise it would be a sin. Who would have thought that the target of these assassins would be their own old lady.

And all this was seen clearly and clearly by Ah Qi, an outsider hiding aside.

Even the old lady herself didn't expect it, and kept muttering, "Protect Jingyi," "It's important to protect Jingyi first", for fear of frightening this little princess who has never seen anything in the world.

Just a second when the dagger was about to stab in front of the old lady, Ah Qi pounced, and the dagger slashed Ah Qi's arm, fortunately, the injury was not serious, because in the second after Ah Qi pounced, the legendary Gu family Seven Sons noticed the abnormality, and the assassin, and the reason why Ah Qi injured his arm was an accident was because when the assassin fell to the ground, the dagger fell from his hand, and Ah Qi rushed up, back and forth, rubbing Ah Qi's arm, which scratched Ah Qi.

It's a joke.

Fortunately, no one found out, and it was nothing, otherwise it would really be a loss of death.

Everyone wants to come to the front hall, but they don't know that staying in the backyard and doing hard work is tiring, but the people who stand in the front hall and sing big operas with masks all day long are also very tired.

Ah Qi thought to himself, what kind of bad luck did he pour today.

Ah Qi raised his head and happened to face the seventh son of the Gu family standing not far away, that son looked like a righteous Ling Ran, Yushu was in the wind, it seemed that these things were easy for him, but Ah Qi was very weak-hearted, looking at these more or less corpses on the ground and those who were left to be caught alive, and even a little panicked, whether it was an assassin or not, after all, it was a human life, although these people chose to do such a hurtful thing, they did not deserve sympathy, but in the end, ......

Ah Qi is always like this, always compassionate and indecisive, and always ruthless...... For this reason, Ah Qi also suffered a lot.

At this time, Ah Qi, who was only in a daze, didn't know that those people, both men and women, began to look in her direction, staring at her, as if they were looking at something strange.

There was surprise, fear, and disdain in the eyes of those people.

But Ah Qi didn't remember any of them, and he didn't take them to heart, because in the next second, Ah Qi fell into the crowd and passed out.

It's just that I don't know why, Ah Qi clearly remembers that the person was standing opposite her, facing the sun, and the reflected shadow just fell on her face, covering up a piece of hypocrisy for her, he stood straight, chic and arbitrary, his eyes were cold, although he was not condescending, but he was an unapproachable person.

The seventh son of the Gu family, Gu Nantian, Ah Qi remembered his name and also remembered his face.

Many years later, Ah Qi finally understood why he seemed so different to her on this day, some things were really fate, destined fate, blessing or sin, Ah Qi still didn't know.

"Girl, are you alright?" When Ah Qi woke up, it was in a good room, and although the furnishings in the room were very simple, they were also exquisite, at least much better than where Ah Qi lived.

Someone came to help her, this person Ah Qi also recognized her face, it was the maid who appeared when she went to help the old lady, because Ah Qi's sudden appearance not only injured herself, knocked herself down, but also caused the old lady to fall to the ground together, very embarrassed.

The servant girl who helped her should have been someone from the old lady's side, and she called her "girl".

Ah Qi thought to herself, I'm not a girl, I'm the girl of your Gu Mansion, besides, just how I dress, can I be a girl?

But I thought to myself, the Gu Mansion girl's dress was not too bad.

It's just that Ah Qi is a little unaccustomed to it, but he still clings to her and is pulled up from the bed by her.

In fact, the scratch on the arm is nothing, but the foot is twisted, and I am afraid that it will take a while to recuperate, which is really a tricky thing.

Ah Qi raised her eyes and saw Aunt Sun standing not far away, she also looked at her, "Aunt Sun," Ah Qi was still very self-disciplined, and after standing up, she stood aside in a regular manner, and shouted "Aunt Sun", after all, she only knew the aunt next to the old lady.

My aunt answered, nodded, and walked away, and went outside, whispering a few words to some of the people guarding the door, as if to say something.

Ah Qi's first reaction was, don't you talk about yourself again?

It's just a blessing and not a curse, a blessing and a curse, no, Ah Qi's appearance was regarded as the old lady's life-saving benefactor by the old lady and the ignorant others, which is also a coincidence.

The girl who helped her just now said to Ah Qi again, "Girl, come with me," and looked at Ah Qi's inconvenient legs and feet, and continued to help her walk very enthusiastically, she is a good person.

While talking, the two of them came to the front hall, and on top of them sat the old lady of the Gu family and the head of the Gu family, that is, Gu Nantian's father, Gu Rongsheng, who really responded to this name, prosperous and rich, rising step by step.

In addition to these two Gu family lords, there were many people sitting on the left and right, and there were also many people standing, of course, there were also Gu Nantian and Xiao Jingyi, Xiao Jingyi naturally stood close to the old lady, as for Gu Nantian, Ah Qi didn't dare to look at him more.

Ah Qi thought, such a big scene?

"Those assassins, do you know each other?" The person who spoke was the head of the Gu family, Gu Rongsheng, with a slight question in his tone.

Ah Qi is a little confused, assassin? Naturally, she didn't recognize it, "The slave didn't recognize it," Ah Qi thought, couldn't it be that she had been asleep for too long?

"Why are you there today?" Ah Qi listened to Gu Rongsheng's tone and the eyes of the Gu family's group of people of all sizes looking at her, and always felt a little ill-intentioned, as if he was interrogating her, as if he was looking at a clown?

Ah Qi thought, although I had no intention, but my bad heart is also good, seeing that your old lady is an old person, and she is alone, and she is about to suffer, so she naturally wants to come to the rescue, which is also to blame Ah Qi, always nosy, this is a bad thing, you have to change!

Ah Qi knelt on the ground, lowered his head and thought to himself, but did not speak.

At this time, Aunt Sun, who was standing, opened her mouth and said, "It was the slave maid who led her over, thinking that there were also more people waiting in the garden," as if she was explaining something for Ah Qi.

Ah Qi suddenly realized that they regarded themselves as accomplices of the assassins, and they were afraid that they felt in their hearts that Ah Qi would never be so kind, and they must have some plans.

"You saved my old lady?" After listening to Aunt Sun's words, someone asked.

Ah Qi shook his head.

"Isn't it?" The man was a little surprised.

He should be thinking that this girl must be greedy for the power and wealth of the Gu family, otherwise she was so young and powerless, how could she go out of her way to save an old lady of the Gu family who had nothing to do with it, and hurt herself, but only hurt the fur from the assassin's hands, which is really incredible.

"It was the Seventh Prince who killed the assassin, it has nothing to do with me, and the old lady wouldn't have been hurt without me," but this is indeed the case, it is such a coincidence.

The person who saved the old lady of the Gu family is the seventh son of the Gu family, who is her good grandson, to be precise, this grandson also saved Ah Qi by the way, he is indeed a good person, and he should be grateful.

"You're a good man," said the old lady.
