After returning to the Fuyuan Courtyard, after Lin Sheng listened to Gu Jinli's words, he rolled his eyes and said in an angry tone: "If it is really a foot tall and a demon is one foot high, she does not hesitate to destroy her hands, she is really amazing!" ”

Gu Jinli sneered and said faintly: "I suspected that it was Yin Suwan's hand, but I didn't expect it to be her!" ”

Although Yin Suwan saw through Gu Jinli's plan, she was trying to cover it up and directly exposed Jinse.

Self-righteous stupidity, according to Qi Hao's mind, how could he not know that Jin Se was bought?

It's just that as for whether he suspects Yin Suwan, it's up to him......

"She's done this to you, what are you going to do?" Lin Sheng poured himself a cup of tea and pouted: "It's not necessarily that everyone is pooping on your head, don't you say anything?" ”

Gu Jinli listened to Lin Sheng's rude words, and coughed lightly, "Miss Lin, you talk like this...... Well, so straightforward? ”

Lin Sheng shrugged his shoulders, "No way, I'm used to it." ”

Pinching up a piece of pastry on the plate, she took a bite and said vaguely: "I'm not a lady in the first place, why do you want to twist and pinch and pretend?" ”

"Many people live in this complicated world, and if they care too much about the eyes of others, they will live too tired." Looking at Lin Sheng's free and hearty appearance, Gu Jinli smiled knowingly: "Well, you have a good temperament like this." ”

Lin Sheng's eyes smiled like a crescent moon. After swallowing the pastry, he wiped his mouth and asked, "Do you want me to heal Yin Suwan's leg?" ”

Gu Jinli didn't expect Lin Sheng to ask this question, she was stunned at first, and then she said seriously: "I naturally hope that she will get better soon." ”

This is indeed her true words, after all, only Yin Suwan's leg is good, and Qi Hao has no reason to trap her......

Moreover, she is not a person who likes to be compassionate and compassionate, but she was just slightly moved when she saw Qi Hao's infatuation pounce on Yin Suwan.

Lin Sheng let out an "oh". picked up another piece of pastry, and after eating it in three or two, she looked up at Gu Jinli and said with a smile: "Everything is wrapped up in me." ”

Gu Jinli didn't know what Lin Sheng was thinking in his head, so she smiled and didn't speak again.

Lin Sheng stood up, yawned, took out a small medicine bottle from the placket of his chest, and said with a tired face: "Oh, this is for Hexiang's girl." Although her poison has been resolved, she still needs to be well regulated. ”

Gu Jinli's heart warmed, she got up to send her off, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Miss Lin." ”

Lin Sheng rolled his eyes, shook his body, and strode out of the room.

Gu Jinli looked at Lin Sheng's figure and disappeared into the courtyard, her eyes moved slightly, and she remembered what Qi Hao said in front of so many people just now.

Tomorrow, he wants to accompany him back to the Prime Minister's Mansion?

Since I got married, I have been back and forth so many times. But he never thought that Qi Hao could accompany him back......

It stands to reason that Qi Hao and King Xuan are incompatible, and they are incompatible, and Gu Huai is the most ambitious in King Xuan's party, so according to his character, how can he take the initiative to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion?

I can't tell you what it feels like, but it's like a hand is gently teasing it.

She sat down, holding her face with her hands, stunned.

After Qi Hao walked out of the study, Du Jiang followed behind and said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, someone saw Jin Se appear in Yixin Courtyard last night. ”

"And her hand is also self-harming?" Qi Hao snorted coldly, and his tone was very cold.

Du Jiang shook his head and whispered, "Yes...... It's ......"

"That's it, don't talk about it." Qi Hao suddenly interrupted Du Jiang, and his steps towards Yixin Courtyard became faster and faster.

Du Jiang knew that Qi Hao had understood, so he didn't say more.

"The slave has seen the prince." Baozhu was just holding his clothes and preparing to go to the backyard, when he saw Qi Hao entering the yard, he immediately put down his clothes and saluted respectfully.

Qi Hao nodded and continued to walk inside, but was stopped by Baozhu shouting from behind: "Lord Wang." ”

Turning around, Qi Hao looked at the orb, and his voice did not have the slightest warmth: "What's the matter?" ”

Baozhu lowered his head and said cautiously, "Wang...... The princess is taking a nap. ”

This means that Yin Suwan is sleeping, and if Qi Hao goes in, it will be an interruption.

Sure enough, Qi Hao listened to it and turned to leave.

After Qi Hao left, Baozhu raised her head and saw her face crimson.

I breathed a sigh of relief, I don't know if I was nervous about lying, or I was thrilled when I saw Qi Hao.

After stabilizing her mood, she picked up her clothes and walked to the backyard.

"Miss, it's time to take your medicine." Inside the house, Shuang'er woke up Yin Suwan, who was asleep, and handed the medicine bowl to her.

Yin Suwan's mind sank, she opened her eyes with great effort, she half stood up, and said in a muffled voice: "What time is it?" ”

Shuang'er said: "It's time." ”

Yin Suwan rubbed the corners of her eyebrows and asked again, "That's right." How's going on with Jinse? ”

Shuang'er replied, "Jin Se was injured in his hand, so he couldn't do it. Even if Concubine Gu guessed that it was you who instructed Jin Se to move, there was no reason to speak of it. ”

"But...... If Jin Se stays for a day, there is a risk for a day. What if one day she exposes all of this? ”

After Yin Suwan drank all the bitter medicine, she said slowly: "Keep her first, and there will be a place to use it in the future." ”

Glancing at the door, she remembered Qi Hao.

Yesterday, he vomited blood and fell into a coma, and Qi Hao only found a doctor to visit him.

He doesn't pay attention to her so much now, which shows that a man's heart is not reliable at all......

Moreover, for the person who poisoned himself, Qi Hao doesn't seem to have any intention of pursuing it, it's too chilling......

"Go down." Withdrawing the disappointment in her eyes, Yin Suwan immediately lay down again, facing the wall.

"Yes, Princess." In response, Shuang'er was about to leave with the bowl.

Suddenly thinking of something, she said again: "Princess...... The prince said that tomorrow on Gu Xiang's birthday, he will accompany Concubine Gu back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

Clenched his fists to death, with a "snap", his nails were broken.

Yin Suwan secretly gritted her silver teeth, and said after a while: "Go out." ”

Listening to the sound of the door closing behind her, Yin Suwan's eyes were red.

With Lin Sheng here, there is no need to worry about leg injuries, and the poison in the body should not be a big deal.

The only thing worth worrying about is Qi Hao's attitude towards her......

Snorting, she slowly closed her eyes and held back her tears.

After Qi Hao left the courtyard, he stopped in the garden, and his eyes fell on the koi fish swimming freely in the pool.

Du Jiang stood quietly behind him, looking at the solemnity between his eyebrows, and said tentatively: "The prince is worried about the affairs of the princess and Concubine Gu?" ”

Qi Hao took a deep breath and said noncommittally: "Du Jiang, I will instruct Steward Zhou in a while, let him prepare some birthday gifts, and take them with him when he goes to the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow." ”

Du Jiang nodded, and then went to the front yard to tell Steward Zhou to go.

"Koi ...... Jinli. Qi Hao's thin lips opened lightly, and he said softly: "Keeping you in the mansion, is this king right or wrong?" ”

Sighing lightly, his expression was strangely confused.

In the evening, not long after Gu Jinli had dinner, Steward Zhou sent someone to carry large and small boxes and other gifts into the Fuyuan Courtyard.

After Steward Zhou explained his intentions, he put everything down.

Gu Jinli looked at the gift boxes that were almost piled up on the table, and couldn't help frowning.

Qi Hao said that he would just accompany him home, he sent people to send so many things with such fanfare, isn't this to incur resentment for himself?

Otherwise. What important information did he want to take advantage of this visit to the Prime Minister's Mansion to spy on at the banquet?

I can't think about it, I can't guess it, is a man's mind like a needle under the sea?

After asking Steward Zhou to convey her gratitude, Gu Jinli reluctantly asked Aiyue to pack up her things.

The night was getting darker, and in the courtyard of Qiu Ju, Xueqin combed Mrs. Liu's hair and whispered: "Master, the prince will accompany Concubine Gu back to the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow!" Wouldn't this be an acknowledgment of her status in the house? ”

Mrs. Liu turned around and looked at Xueqin deeply, and sneered: "If the prince wants to admit it, the one in Yixin Courtyard must not stir up the palace to the dark?" ”

"That'...... What does he mean? Xueqin blinked and wondered.

"What does the prince mean, we can't guess the degree, and we don't need to guess the degree." Mrs. Liu stood up and walked in the direction of the bed, and said slowly, "How is Lin Chao doing over there?" ”

Xue Qin helped Mrs. Liu to loosen her clothes, and said: "Master, don't worry, Lin Chao has been going to Yulu Courtyard very diligently these days, and it must not be long before there is news about Mrs. Yu's stomach." ”

Mrs. Liu nodded, then suddenly grabbed Xueqin's hand to undress herself, and pulled her into her arms.

The red lips were close to Xueqin's ears, and she said in a low voice, "Is the moon over?" ”

After hearing this, Xueqin's face was flushed, and she said shyly: "Finish...... Finished. ”

It was not once or twice that she and Mrs. Liu "grinded the mirror", so she naturally understood what Mrs. Liu meant by asking.

Mrs. Liu hooked her lips, raised her hand to hook Xueqin's chin, and then lowered her head and kissed it.

Xueqin is still young, so she is half a head shorter than Mrs. Liu, and if the two don't look at gender identity, they are relatively compatible in height.

The shadows are close to each other, and it is difficult to separate.

The temperature in the air gradually became scorching, and Lady Liu and Xueqin also moved from the ground to the bed.

The bed curtain fell, and Mrs. Liu bit Xueqin's earlobe, and said in a bewitching voice: "Little thing, didn't you say last time that you wanted to try a new trick?" I'll satisfy you tonight......"

With that, she found an unknown object from under the pillow and stuffed it under Xueqin's body......

With a bang, Xue Qinjiao continued to moan......

On Gu Huai's birthday, Gu Jinli got up earlier than usual.

There are many people who want to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to attend a banquet, after all, it is a grand occasion. So she carefully groomed and dressed up.

Considering Hexiang's body, Gu Jinli asked Aiyue to stay in the palace to take care of her.

Qi Hao was also present today, so she didn't have to worry about anything unexpected happening.

Even if someone wants to trouble her, they should weigh how many pounds and taels they weigh in advance, right?

But...... Is this a fox and a fake tiger?

The corners of her lips curled unconsciously, and she suddenly felt that this seemed to be good.

Because, at least, it will save a lot of trouble.

Last night, Steward Zhou sent over a lot of gifts, and after the subordinates moved to the carriage one after another, Gu Jinli raised his feet and walked towards the gate of King Ning's mansion.

It's not that she deliberately delays time, she feels that she is not a person who is good at finding topics, if she gets in the car early. There is really nothing to say between him and Qi Hao, and it is embarrassing to be alone together, so it is better to grind for a while.

At the moment when Gu Jinli lifted the curtain, a trace of surprise crossed Qi Hao's eyes.

The eyes are like water, and the red lips are like Dan.

She wore a blue floor-length skirt with a wide hem outlined with silver thread to outline the peony pattern.

Long beads fluttered down and swayed between the temples.

Coral chains and ruby bracelets are worn alternately on the wrist, giving them a striking vigour.

It's just that the cool blue on her body reminds Qi Hao of Gu Chengen.

Gu Chengen loves blue alone, and he has ill intentions towards Gu Jinli, so if he sees Gu Jinli wearing blue to the banquet, will he be sentimental and cranky?

Thinking like this, Qi Hao's face sank.

Gu Jinli lowered her eyes, so she naturally couldn't see the change in Qi Hao's expression.

After getting in the car, she still sat opposite Qi Hao, and shouted "Lord Wang" in a low voice, which was regarded as a hello.

"Drive!" The coachman raised his horsewhip and whipped it hard, and the car immediately rushed to King Ning's mansion.

Qi Hao was silent all the way, until the carriage stopped at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gu Jinli couldn't help it, and when he was about to get off the car, he gently tugged on his sleeve and whispered: "Thank you for accompanying me back." ”

The reason why she thanked him was to thank him for his willingness to "ignore past suspicions" to give herself this face in front of Gu Huai and others.

Also, thank you to him for preparing a gift for her in advance.

She let Aiyue see all those gifts, and almost every one of them was a priceless rarity.

It can be seen that he did put a lot of effort into it......

Stunned, Qi Hao's deep eyes looked at Gu Jinli for a long time, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

He had restrained himself from wanting to get close to her, to understand her, to fall in love with her, but as the days passed, his feelings for her seemed to become more and more irrepressible.

Every time he says something and does something, he can't help it.

Probably, when facing her, he no longer knew what the "brain" was......

Then, he made a move that surprised her.

Holding Gu Jinli's hand with a big hand, Qi Hao actually wanted to lead her out of the carriage.

"Wang ...... Rajah? Gu Jinli's mind went blank, she lost thinking in an instant, and she forgot to withdraw her hand from Qi Hao's hand.

"Don't waste time." Qi Hao caught a glimpse of a lot of carriages parked at the door, so he used his dark force to pull Gu Jinli, who was still in a daze, off the carriage.

"Heh, Lord Ning, Concubine Gu." Gu Jinli's feet just touched the ground, and I saw King Xuan also getting down from the carriage on the side.

Looking Gu Jinli up and down, a strange light lit up in his dark eyes.

Pursing his lips, he seemed to smile and said, "It seems that the rumors are all true, the relationship between Prince Ning and Concubine Gu is really good." ”

Qi Hao didn't even bother to look at King Xuan, he took Gu Jinli's hand and entered the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion without squinting.

King Xuan snorted coldly and also raised his feet to enter.

As soon as the guards guarding the door saw Qi Hao coming, they didn't know whether they were surprised or scared, and after saying "Lord Ning" in a trembling voice, they trotted to the flower hall.

"Old ...... Master! Out of breath, the guard at the door said in a panic: "Big ...... The eldest lady is back! ”

"Da ......" immediately understood that the person who was talking about the guards at the door should be Gu Jinli, and Gu Huai almost blurted out something that should not be said.

After stopping it in time, he said in a reproachful tone: "How is the eldest lady?" Have you been wronged in King Ning's Mansion? ”

"No, sir......" The guard at the gate took a few breaths. Only then did he add: "Lord Ning...... Lord Ning is here! ”

At this time, Gu Huai was chatting and laughing with the guests who came to congratulate him on his birthday, these guests were all court officials, most of them were Xuanwang Party, very few were neutrals, and almost none of Ningwang's Party were there.

Therefore, as soon as the people present heard the words of the gatekeeper, they couldn't help but look at me, I look at you, and everyone had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

"Lord Ning is here?" Gu Huai frowned. There was no trace of joy on his face, but his brain was spinning rapidly, guessing the purpose of Qi Hao's coming.

Seeing that Gu Huai was standing still and didn't speak, the guard guarding the door said again: "Master, Lord Ning has come to the flower hall now." ”

When the words fell, Qi Hao and Gu Jinli's people had already arrived at the door of the flower hall.

However, everyone didn't see that there was a King Xuan behind him, so everyone hurriedly saluted and said, "Wechen has seen Lord Ning." ”

After Qi Hao took a step forward, he revealed King Xuan who was blocked behind him, so everyone immediately saluted King Xuan.

"I don't know that King Ning is coming, Weichen has not greeted him from afar, and I hope that King Ning will forgive his sins." Gu Huai arched his hand, his expression was extremely humble.

In Qi Hao's eyes, Gu Huai is an old fox who is different from the outside, cunning and treacherous.

Moreover, he is not only Gu Jinxiu's father, but also Gu Jinli's father.

However, in his attitude towards his two daughters, he did not achieve a bowl of water.

How can such a person be worthy of being a father if he sacrificed his concubine in order to protect his concubine?

Even if the mustard for Gu Huai is deeper. But Qi Hao still gave Gu Huai a step down.

With a "hmm", he gave Du Jiang a look on the side.

Du Jiang understood, and immediately led someone to send the gift, "Gu Xiang, this is the intention of the prince of our family and Concubine Gu." ”

If it was in the past, Qi Hao not only disdained to step into this prime minister's mansion, but also sneered at talking to Gu Huai, but today not only came to the door in person, but also brought gifts, could this be a change of sex?

Gu Huai looked at the gift boxes stacked high for a moment, and looked at Qi Hao's old eyes full of scrutiny.

His eyes fell on the hands of Qi Hao and Gu Jinli, and he accepted with a smile: "Thank you Lord Ning for Weichen." ”

Turning his head to look at Gu Jinli, Gu Huai said gently: "Jinxiu hasn't come back for a while, your mother and sisters miss you." ”

When it came to marrying on behalf of the eldest lady, it was the eldest lady who came up with the idea that pushed Gu Jinli into the sea of swords.

After that, she plotted against her again and again, regardless of whether Gu Huai knew it or not, but Gu Jinli was not a fool, so she didn't believe that the eldest lady would miss her.

Gu Jinli pulled her lips and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll go to my mother's yard." ”

Gu Chengen stood beside Gu Huai, and his eyes never left the door for half a minute since the moment the guard reported that she was back.

When he saw her and Qi Hao appear side by side, his heart felt like he had been pierced with 10,000 thorns, and it hurt.

Even the old wound on his shoulder a few days ago seems to be cracking.

Gu Chengen stared straight at Gu Jinli, under the pressure of his gaze, she actually felt a sense of weakness.

Breaking free of Qi Hao's hand, she said with an unnatural expression: "Big brother." ”

The hand hidden in his sleeve was clenched tightly, Gu Chengen nodded, and his face did not show any different color.

Gu Jinli didn't know how to face Gu Chengen. I had to turn my head to Qi Hao and said, "Lord, the concubine is going to ......"

"This king will go with you." Without waiting for Gu Jinli to finish speaking, Qi Hao interrupted her: "For so many years, this king has not been to this prime minister's mansion, so you just took this king around." ”

"Uh......" Gu Jinli's eyes widened, and she suddenly felt that the person in front of her must not be Qi Hao.

It is said that they love the house and the black, and the same is true for the hated house and the black.

Isn't Qi Hao the most hated by the Prime Minister's Mansion? How did you get the pleasure of visiting the garden?

Don't...... He came to the Prime Minister's Mansion this time, what ulterior plan does he really have?

Maybe the suspicious look in Gu Jinli's eyes was too obvious, which made Qi Hao feel very uncomfortable.

Holding her hand again, Qi Hao narrowed his eyes, "What, don't you want to?" ”

There was another extra strength in his hand, sensing Qi Hao's displeasure, Gu Jinli was worried that he would be angry in front of everyone, how to say that it was Gu Huai's birthday banquet, if he took the opportunity to make trouble, how disturbing would it be?

"The concubine doesn't dare." Hurriedly shook her head, Gu Jinli smiled and said: "Although the scenery of the Xiangfu is not as good as the palace, it also has a different flavor, and the concubine will take the prince around." ”

Gu Huai saw the small movements between Qi Hao and Gu Jinli in his eyes, and the deep meaning in his old eyes was even deeper, "Well, it's still early before the banquet time, take Prince Ning around." ”

In terms of political stance, he unswervingly chose King Xuan.

There is no reason, and there is no need for a reason.

When Ah Li was married into King Ning's mansion, he didn't use her as a chess piece to place her beside Qi Hao.

According to Ah Li's intelligence, he believed that she would definitely turn evil into good fortune in King Ning's mansion.

Now it seems that Ah Li not only managed to protect herself, but also made Qi Hao fall in love with her, which is an unexpected surprise!

After this banquet, you must find an opportunity to ask Ah Li to pay close attention to Qi Hao's every move.

If you can, it's best to steal Qi Hao's tiger talisman and seal......

After seeing Gu Jinli and Qi Hao leave, everyone rerealized the existence of King Xuan and began to tout and flatter them one by one.

Although King Xuan was dissatisfied with being robbed of the limelight by Qi Hao, after all, he was a member of his own party, and he didn't care too much, so he greeted him with a smile and took a seat.

"Xuan Shizi has arrived!"

"The Seven Princes have arrived!"

Suddenly, a loud proclamation from the door came into the flower hall from the courtyard again.

Everyone who had just touched the seat was stunned, they didn't expect that so many people would suddenly come to Gu Huai's birthday banquet today.

It is not unusual for King Xuan to come, but not to mention Qi Hao, who has not dealt with him for many years, even the Prince of Xuan and the Seventh Prince, who have always been slack to attend various occasions, also came, it seems that this banquet is extraordinary.
