Leaving Fengyang Palace, Mu Qianxia grabbed Concubine Shu, "Niangniang, thank you for your help just now, but...... Why are you wading into this troubled water? ”

Concubine Shu smiled and looked at Gu Liren beside Mu Qianxia, "When I was outside the palace back then, Gu Gongzi saved the life of this palace, if it wasn't for her help, there would be no current Concubine Shu." Therefore, you don't have a psychological burden because of this, and feel that this palace has offended the queen for you, and this palace is just repaying the favor. What's more, there has been a long grudge between the palace and the queen, and even without you, it is impossible for the two of us to be safe. Actually, Bengong didn't know about it at first, it was Gu Gongzi who came to Bengong, if you want to thank him, thank him. ”

Mu Qianxia was stunned.

She also thought that Concubine Shu came after getting the news, and wanted to take advantage of this incident to pit the queen once, but she didn't expect that Gu Li found it.

Gu Li met her gaze and smiled slightly, "What do you see me doing, princess, do you really want to be locked up?" ”

Mu Qianxia pouted unhappily, "You just said that you were willing to be locked up with me, it turned out to be all fake, you knew that Concubine Shu Niangniang would come, what were you pretending to be there." Oh, man. ”

Gu Li, "........."

Concubine Shu was amused, "Actually, it may not be useful if this palace comes." Your royal brother trusts you and intends to defend you, while the queen and the crown prince don't want to offend the emperor too much, so you can be let go. Of course, if the queen insists on arresting you and going to prison, Gu Gongzi will definitely go back to accompany you. ”

Mu Qianxia snorted lightly, "No matter what, I still want to thank Niang Niang for your help." ”

Concubine Shu shook her head helplessly, "Gu Gongzi let's go first, Bengong and Qianxia have a few words I want to say separately." ”

Gu Li nodded and turned to leave.

Concubine Shu looked at Mu Qianxia's departing back, her expression was complicated, "I heard that you are going to marry the prince of Eastern Qin?"

Mu Qianxia nodded, "If there are no accidents, it should be." ”

"Being at the royal family, everyone has their own last resort. Children of the royal family, how difficult it is to have a man who loves him. According to the emperor's favor for Qianxia, he must have given you the right to choose, right? Shallow summer, I hope you can think carefully before making a choice. You know that a person's eyes can't deceive people, and when Gu Li came to Bengong to save you, he was really nervous about you. ”

Mu Qianxia smiled bitterly, "If Niang Niang had told me these words earlier, it would have been possible, but now it is too late." I personally promised Gu Chenjing that I would marry him. As the princess of a country, I must not be untrustworthy, even if I am not happy now, I must marry. From the moment I said yes, there was no turning back. ”

Concubine Shu sighed lightly, "That's it, I hope your choice will be correct, and I hope you will always be able to stay together and never give up." ”

In fact, Concubine Shu's age is not much older than her, and such a mature and stable temperament is the fatigue and vicissitudes of staying in the deep palace for a long time. As soon as he entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and Xiao Lang was a passerby from then on. The Imperial Palace, like the most luxurious prison, once entered, will be completely cut off from the outside world, from the flower to the old age, the life will be spent there. If you have a child, you are fine, but if you don't, you will be lonely for the rest of your life. How many people wish before death - if there is an afterlife, they will not enter the royal gate.

Mu Qianxia shook Concubine Shu's hand movingly, "If Niangniang has nothing to do in the future, you can come to the princess's mansion to play with me, I am very bored in the mansion every day." I will chat with my mother, tell jokes to make my mother happy, and have a lot of things that my mother doesn't know, so that my mother will be happy every day when she returns from the princess's mansion! ”

Concubine Shu chuckled and nodded, "Okay." ”

It's just that after Mu Qianxia left, she lowered her eyes and sighed lowly, "It's a pity that it's inconvenient to leave the palace in this palace, so you'd better ...... Let's not enter this palace. ”

…………

When Mu Qianxia walked to the gate of the palace, she saw Gu Li's long moon-white figure with her back to her, standing tall and jade. Even if you just stand there, it's as picturesque as it is.

Mu Qianxia quickened his pace, wanting to scare him, ran behind Gu Li and suddenly slapped him heavily, shouting: "Gu Li!"

Gu Li turned around calmly, Mu Qianxia saw that he was not frightened, and pursed his lips in some disappointment, "Did you hear that?" ”

Gu Li twisted his eyebrows and looked at her, "You are too heavy, and the footsteps are too loud, it is impossible not to hear them." ”

Mu Qianxia, "......"

Degassing, degassing! He has always been so venomous, just get used to it, just get used to it. And he just saved her, don't worry about this kind of trivial matter, don't be angry!

Then, Mu Qianxia still couldn't help but roll her eyes silently.

But before she could finish rolling her eyes, Gu Li suddenly leaned over and hugged her.

Time stands still for a moment.

Mu Qianxia was frightened by Gu Li's sudden movements, and was stunned, "Gu Li, are you ...... How...... What's wrong? ”

"Princess, am I late today?" Gu Li half-closed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Surrounded by so many people, pointing at you with a sword, are you scared?"

“……”

Mu Qianxia slowed down, "Actually, it's okay." It's just that so many people are a little frightened when they suddenly rush up. I really didn't expect the queen to mobilize the secret guard because of me. I thought at the time, although I was unwilling to die like this, it would be good to do this, so that I would not have to bear the responsibility of being a princess, and I would not have to live carefully every day, let alone face the calculations of others. However, the moment you came, I was not afraid, and I knew that I could continue to live to see the beauty of the world. Actually, what she wanted to say more was that after seeing him, she didn't want to die, and she was reluctant to die.

Gu Li was silent for a long time, and then slowly spoke, "Princess, I promise that this incident will not happen again in the future." ”

"Good. I believe in you. ”

Gu Li's body stiffened slightly while holding Mu Qianxia, but it quickly returned to normal. Because of the nervousness in her heart, Mu Qianxia didn't notice Gu Li's abnormality.

…………

After the two men left, the palace seemed to fall into a dead silence.

Looking at the lifeless girl lying on the bed, the faces of several people were not very good-looking.

Mu Chenyi comforted the queen in Fengyang Palace for a while, and then asked people to start preparing for Mu Qianxue's funeral, the prince looked at the queen who was almost crying and fainted, his eyes moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he forcibly held back and didn't say anything.

Before Mu Chenyi left, he patted the queen's shoulder with a solemn expression, "For the matter of light snow, I will definitely give you justice!" Whoever does it, I won't let him go. ”

The queen looked up at him, her eyes were red and swollen, and she didn't have the delicate elegance of the past, "Your Majesty, do you really believe what Concubine Shu said?" ”

Mu Chenyi's eyes darkened, and the queen cried: "If it was really Mu Qianxia who did it, would you really give me justice?" Even if she is Mu Qianxia, even if it is your favorite sister, will you really let her pay for her life? You really won't lie to me? Are you really willing to give me justice? The anticipation and hesitation in her eyes were like a drowning person grasping a life-saving straw, making Mu Chenyi's eyes even darker, "Why do you insist on thinking that it is shallow?" ”

The queen looked at him incredulously, "I just said if, even so, you won't promise me?" ”

Mu Chenyi wiped away her tears that kept falling soothingly, "I am also sad about Qianxue's death." She is my daughter, and I will not let her die in vain. No matter who the culprit is, I won't let it go, so there's no need for you to make such hypothetical guesses, and now that the results haven't come out yet, let's deal with Asaoyuki's funeral with peace of mind. ”

The queen sneered heavily in her heart.

…………

Two days later, the princess's house.

Mu Qianxia was about to leave the house that day, when he saw Shuo Feng and Gu Li talking in the front yard, Shuo Feng's expression was still a little serious.

She didn't want to eavesdrop on it, but Shuo Feng's words just happened to get into her ears, "Childe, the messenger said that compared to the injuries that Niangniang suffered in the palace before, this time is not too serious. It's just that the mother's body has always been weak, and this time she really suffered a big sin. ”

The smile on Mu Qianxia's face suddenly froze. "Which sissy?"

When the two of them heard her voice, their faces also changed, and their eyes looked at her in unison......

Gu Li's eyebrows frowned, "Princess, why are you here?" ”

Mu Qianxia's face had completely changed, and she hurriedly walked towards him, "Gu Li, tell me, which lady is it?" ”

Gu Li said helplessly: "Princess."

"Gu Li, you tell me!" She held his hand anxiously, "Isn't it Concubine De Niangniang?" Was she beaten? Tell me, okay?"

“………”

Shuo Feng was glared at by Gu Li fiercely, and buried his head guiltily, "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, your subordinates just talked nonsense. You don't take it personally. ”

How could Mu Qianxia still believe what he said now, she couldn't help but hold Gu Li's hand tightly, "Tell me quickly." ”

"Princess, there are some things that you don't need to know." Gu Li frowned, "Everyone has their own life, if you have no way to change it, it's better to cover your ears and steal the bell, as if you don't know." ”

"If I hadn't heard it, I could have taken it as if I didn't know." She looked at him almost pleadingly, "But now that I've heard it all, and it's most likely related to me, why are you going to let me sit idly by?" How do you make me cover my ears and steal the bell and deceive myself? ”

Gu Li looked at her for a long time, and glanced at Shuofeng, who immediately retreated with great discernment.

Gu Li sighed almost inaudibly, "It's Concubine Niangniang." ”

“…… Why? ”

"Princess."

"Because of me, huh?" Mu Qianxia was keenly aware, "Is it because Concubine Shu offended the queen by testifying on my behalf that day and was retaliated against by the queen?" ”

Gu Li lowered his eyes and looked at her, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes, and his voice was lowered, "Princess, don't think about it, huh?" ”

Mu Qianxia bit her lip suddenly, her eyes reddened slightly, "Then I'...... Can I go see her now? ”
