Gu Jinli stiffened and turned her head, and when she saw the Eighth Prince in front of her with deep eyes and scrutiny, she immediately adjusted her facial expression, and respectfully arched her hand and said, "Grass People Lin Sheng, I have seen the Eighth Prince." ”

The Eighth Prince turned his head, his gaze fell into the empty distance, and said coldly, "What were you looking at just now?" ”

Gu Jinli's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "The grass people just finished diagnosing the pulse of the queen mother, and when they came out, they thought that the grass people's veil seemed to have fallen in the Shoukang Palace, and they were struggling with whether to go back." ”

The Eighth Prince snorted coldly, obviously unbelieving: "Pazi forgot? Why be so sneaky? ”

Gu Jinli hid behind the vines, and she was indeed sneaky.

"Although the grass people's veils are often used to wipe silver needles, it is also a man's thing in the end." Pulling her lips in embarrassment, she said with a slight emptiness: "The Eighth Prince also knows that it is very inconvenient for men to walk around in the harem, so the grass people are afraid that people will see it and cause misunderstanding, so they are hiding here." ”

"Really?" This statement does not dispel the suspicions of the Eighth Prince.

"Eighth Prince, what happened?" At this moment, several men dressed in Praetorian Guard uniforms suddenly came from the path on the other side.

The person in charge is the deputy commander Gu Nianshi.

Gu Nianshi had met Lin Sheng before, but because she was from Ning Wangfu, she didn't have a very good impression of her.

Frowning, although his words were still asked by the Eighth Prince, his sharp eyes shot straight at Gu Jinli, "Eighth Prince, what's wrong with this person?" ”

The Eighth Prince didn't have much intersection with Gu Nian on weekdays, and even if they met, it was just a salute and a nod.

Gu Nianshi, like Gu Chengen, was haunted by Gu Jinli's death back then, and the Eighth Prince thought about whether he could win Gu Nianshi, the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, to his side.

It stands to reason that Gu Chengen is a squire of the Criminal Department, and his position in the court is more important than that of Gu Nianshi, and his auxiliary role to the Eighth Prince will also be greater.

However, it is precisely because Gu Chengen has been in the DPRK for many years that it may be difficult to make Gu Chengen choose himself who is weak and weak.

However, now that King Xuan is abolished, according to Gu Chengen's jealous and hateful nature, it seems that he may not necessarily abandon his previous suspicions and stand in line.

But compared to Gu Chengen, it seems to be easier to win Gu Nian.

After all, Gu Nianshi is not the sister-in-law of the Gu family.

As a concubine, he is not taken seriously, and at the same time, he is not subject to too much attention and restrictions.

Of course, from the perspective of human nature, most concubines will be dissatisfied with their identity and status, or the unfair treatment they have received over the years.

When this kind of dissatisfaction accumulates too much, it will give rise to resentment.

Once the Eighth Prince threw an olive branch to him and gave him a chance to show himself in front of everyone, then he should have no reason to refuse.

Thinking like this in his heart, the Eighth Prince's attitude towards Gu Nianshi also softened: "This prince is just chatting casually with Lin Gongzi, Commander Gu will go to other places to inspect." ”

The palace is huge, but you have to walk around every day, so it's a tiring job.

Gu Nianshi nodded, and then left with the people.

Gu Jinli remembered that she had tea with the Eighth Prince in Mingyang Palace last time, but this time the Eighth Prince's attitude was a little cold.

I couldn't guess the thoughts of the Eighth Prince for a while, and thought that she would have to go to Yin's house to show Yin Zike's legs for a while, so she hurriedly said: "If the Eighth Prince is fine, the grass people will leave first." ”

The Eighth Prince waved his hand, and after Gu Jinli left, he said thoughtfully: "Xiao Xiangzi, last time this prince failed to get rid of her, do you think it is necessary to do it again?" ”

Half a month ago, in order to determine the weight of "Lin Sheng" in Qi Hao's heart, the Eighth Prince sent someone to assassinate Lin Sheng.

It's a pity that "Lin Sheng" still escaped the catastrophe.

Fortunately, the results of the assassination proved that "Lin Sheng" was indeed Qi Hao's weakness.

Xiao Xiangzi was stunned, stared at Gu Jinli's back, and said boldly: "Eighth prince, according to the minion, Lin Sheng is just a male pet who was kept in captivity in the mansion by Prince Ning, we have already tested Lord Ning last time, so there is no need to do it again this time." ”

"In case Lord Ning finds out, let's ......"

Regarding the thoughts of the eighth prince to ascend the throne, Xiao Xiangzi can be regarded as having a thorough understanding these days.

There is no brotherhood in the royal family, the winner is the king, the loser is the villain, and who can win the throne is the most important thing.

The eighth prince pursed his lips and said after a while: "Okay, there will be more opportunities in the future, and this prince is not in a hurry." ”

With that, he turned around and walked towards Mingyang Palace.

Xiao Xiangzi followed behind, puzzled: "Eighth Prince, Lin Sheng has little to do with our plan, why do you insist on getting rid of her?" ”

"Because, she is the person that the fourth brother values the most now." The Eighth Prince's eyes flashed with coldness, and then he added: "Moreover, she can also heal." ”

"There is no disadvantage for such a person to stay by the side of the fourth brother."

Xiao Xiangzi nodded suddenly, but he didn't know the deep meaning of the Eighth Prince's words.

Gu Jinli used to be the person Qi Hao cherished the most, but what happened in the end?

Maybe, Qi Hao later regretted the pain, but no one knew that Gu Jinli was also the person hidden in the heart of the Eighth Prince.

There are some things that are unclear and unreasonable.

Perhaps, the moment the two met for the first time, the moment Gu Jinli was rescued by the Eighth Prince who was sunk into the lake, she unconsciously entered his heart.

It may also be that his leg was broken by Concubine Li's people later, and the whole person fell into endless darkness, and it was her pastries or sachets that gave him warmth.

Although, the difference between the two is six years.

Although, the eighth prince is still a half-old child in the eyes of everyone, and it has nothing to do with the words love between men and women.

However, no matter what, even Xiao Xiangzi didn't know how deep his feelings for Gu Jinli were.

This kind of affection is defined by the Eight Emperors as the love of a man for a woman.

Qi Hao forced Gu Jinli to death, and forced to death the woman he also cherished.

So, how could he not hate?

It's just that this kind of hatred, like his love for Gu Jinli, can only be kept in his heart.

"What the Eighth Prince said is that the minions are stupid." Seeing that the Eighth Prince's face was cold, Xiao Xiangzi hurriedly agreed.

"Sent someone to keep an eye on her." After the Eighth Prince dropped these words, he quickened his pace.

After Gu Jinli left the palace, she took a carriage to Yin's house.

When Mrs. Yin heard that Gu Jinli was coming, she was in a mood that had been uneasy for a few days and finally seemed to have cleared the dark clouds, and her old face was smiling like a flower.

personally welcomed Gu Jinli into the room, with a very attentive and enthusiastic attitude.

Gu Jinli massaged Yin Zike, pricked needles, and adjusted the prescription.

Yin Zike could feel Gu Jinli's sincerity, and his heart was moved, and when Gu Jinli left, he gave a box of newly purchased tea yesterday.

Tea is not a kind of gold and silver jewelry, this kind of gold and silver shining, eye-catching thing, Gu Jinli did not refuse, and accepted it directly.

Stepping into the carriage, Gu Jinli quietly returned to the old mansion of the King of Nanyang and exchanged identities with Ling Chu.

Ling Chu cultivated with Chen Zexuan for a few hours, and took pain-relieving pills, and his body was much more refreshed and comfortable.

The carriage had just been driving for a while, but it was stopped.

Looking at Du Jiang, Ling Chu's face was obviously surprised: "Du ...... Du Guard? ”

Du Jiang bowed his hand and said in a deep voice: "The prince can't rest assured of you, so he specially ordered his subordinates to take you back to the house." ”

Ling Chu was helpless, thinking that fortunately he had exchanged his identity with Gu Jinli in time, so he had no choice but to nod.
