It was night, and it was another light rain.

In the room where the butterfly is praying, the candlelight is shining.

Gu Chengen was not there, he went to Nanyang Palace.

Last time, he was lukewarmly rejected by Chen Zexuan, although Gu Chengen was unhappy in his heart, he was unwilling to give up.

After all, Nanyang's power is a piece of fat that everyone is greedy for, if he can successfully get Nanyang's help, then even if he is asked to come to the door to post Chen Zexuan's cold ass three or five times, he is willing.

The reason why I chose to visit on a rainy night is because the rain scenery sets off the atmosphere, which can show Gu Chengen's sincerity.

Second, there are fewer pedestrians on the road on rainy nights, and it will not attract too many people's attention.

Chen Zexuan naturally knew Gu Chengen's intention, and after ordering Lei Zi to serve tea, he tasted the tea while saying with a cold expression: "Gu Shilang just came here the night before yesterday, and he came again tonight, it seems that he comes a little often. ”

This means that Gu Chengen is not welcome.

That's right, Qi Die is Chen Zexuan's eyeliner placed in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but Gu Chengen made Qi Die pregnant, how can Chen Zexuan be happy?

Although Chen Zexuan still believes in Qi Die's loyalty to himself, there is nothing absolute in the world.

Especially when it comes to men and women, it's even more troublesome.

Men are better, full of ambitions, and rarely fall into the love of children.

But women are emotional animals, and they don't need to do anything big, if they don't fall in love, what else can they do?

Qi Die has Gu Chengen's child, so he is not a qualified and excellent informant.

Unless, she can beat the evil seed in her stomach without hesitation, in order to regain Chen Zexuan's trust.

Gu Chengen pretended not to understand the meaning of Chen Zexuan's words, and smiled gently and politely: "The prince has both ability and political integrity, and this servant has nothing to do recently, so I want to come to the prince's mansion to walk around more so that I can be taught more." ”

"Hehe, Gu Shilang is an errand in the Criminal Department, if you judge cases, prisons and the like, I'm afraid this world won't be able to teach you." Chen Zexuan took a sip of tea, hooked his lips, and smiled coldly: "However, this son wants to learn from Gu Shilang about the methods of governing people in this criminal department." ”

The method of treating people in the criminal department is nothing more than all kinds of torture in turn, 6636 is not good, then 9981, no matter how hard the mouth is, if you enter the criminal department, you can shed a layer of skin, and you can't survive the nearly 100 kinds of punishments.

After hearing this, Gu Chengen looked at Chen Zexuan's eyes a little puzzled, but after blinking, he returned to normal.

When it comes to the method of governing people, Chen Zexuan knows no less than Gu Chengen.

Because, Chen Zexuan is not a good person.

Gu Chengen's mind was spinning fast, and he guessed that Chen Zexuan didn't really want to ask about the things in his criminal department, but just wanted to change the topic.

"Actually, the prisoners in the criminal department are all dead ducks with hard mouths, and they take themselves too seriously. In front of the torture instruments, they will open their mouths sooner or later. Gu Chengen's answer was ambiguous, as if he hadn't said: "The people under the prince are all loyal and stable people, so I don't think there is any need to worry about these trivial matters." ”

"Since Gu Shilang said that there is no need to worry about this world, then there is nothing to doubt about this world." Chen Zexuan put down the teacup and said politely: "The road is slippery on a rainy day, Gu Shilang should be careful when he goes back." ”

was slapped in the face by Chen Zexuan again in such a faceless way, Gu Chengen really couldn't help it this time.

The smile he was piling up faded a little bit, and he looked straight at Chen Zexuan, and his tone couldn't help but be a little unhappy: "The prince is unwilling to be friendly with this servant three times and twice, why is it?" ”

"There must also be a charge for murder, and I ask the prince to give this servant a good time."

Gu Chengen's straightforwardness surprised Chen Zexuan a little, he raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Gu Shilang really wants to know?" ”

If it were someone else, Chen Zexuan might still be in the mood to accompany him to make a scene, but he really disdains Gu Chengen.

Gu Chengen nodded heavily, his face flushed with coldness: "Naturally." ”

Chen Zexuan, who is exquisite, and treats everyone with a smile, seems to be so excessive to himself, of course he is uncomfortable.

Chen Zexuan's eyes darkened, and he said faintly: "Gu Shilang, a smart person, shouldn't ask such a stupid question." ”

"But since you asked, it doesn't hurt for the son of the world to tell you."

Standing up, he slowly approached Gu Chengen's side and said slowly: "Back then, you moved the people of this world. ”

As soon as he heard Chen Zexuan mention that year, Gu Chengen instantly understood.

His pupils flashed, and he stiffened, I don't know why, his voice trembled slightly: "You really ...... me because of Ah Li"

When the word "A-Li" came out, he quickly stopped the topic, but it was too late.

"Ahri?" Chen Zexuan's narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and the tears in the corners of his eyes also seemed to be looking at Gu Chengen coldly.

Gu Chengen's heart trembled, and his expression was a little flustered: "It's not Ah Li, you heard it wrong." ”

Ah Li, it is Gu Jinli, not only a special existence in his heart, but also a top "Gu Jin?" The identity of Miss Xiangfu, his sister of Gu Chengen's mother.

If Chen Zexuan investigates from this clue, then according to his wrist, he will definitely know that Gu Jinli is not related to him by blood.

The shady feelings that I hid in my heart will also be exposed......

In fact, having a woman who looks like Gu Jinli by her side has already attracted a lot of people's tongues.

But Gu Chengen pretended not to hear or see those gossips, living in the illusion of self-deception.

Over time, others got used to it, and he himself was immersed in it and couldn't extricate himself.

If you want to talk about grievances, Gu Chengen thinks that he has never offended Chen Zexuan in the slightest.

If you have to say that you have offended, it can only be the incident that happened in the courtyard two years ago.

Last time, Gu Chengen had thought about it, but now it seems that Chen Zexuan has never let go after so long.

Looking at Chen Zexuan now, it doesn't look like he is going to put it down.

Gu Chengen chewed Chen Zexuan's words carefully, and suddenly his body shook violently.

He looked up and opened his mouth in disbelief, but the question in his heart could not be asked.

Chen Zexuan said that Gu Jinli is his person??

What does that mean? How did Gu Jinli become Chen Zexuan's person?

In Gu Chengen's impression, there are indeed many men who admire Gu Jinli.

However, Chen Zexuan and Gu Jinli did not have much communication, and even if they met occasionally, most of them were on major occasions such as banquets in the palace.

Gu Jinli is in King Ning's Mansion and cares about Qi Hao, when did she become Chen Zexuan's person?

Chen Zexuan has long known that Gu Chengen is not Gu Huai's son, and he knows that there is no blood relationship between Gu Chengen and Gu Jinli.

He put his hand on Gu Chengen's shoulder, leaned over, approached and sneered: "Gu Chengen, your Ali, I know everything about her. ”

The words "...... you" seemed to destroy Gu Chengen's psychological defense, which made him completely panicked: "What do you know?!" ”

Chen Zexuan noticed Gu Chengen's nervousness, and smiled even more wantonly, and the tear mole was instantly dyed with spring.

Lowering his head, he said word by word: "She is your sister Gu Jin?" Surrogate marriage, and the fact that you and she are not half-siblings. ”

"These, is that enough?"

Chen Zexuan's words fell, sour, jealous, and condensed into a fire, which was about to torment Gu Chengen's heart.

He is not the identity of the eldest son of the Gu family, Chen Zexuan can find out, this is not the most shocking to him.

Why, Chen Zexuan would know about such a secret thing as a substitute marriage?

It stands to reason that even if Chen Zexuan investigates, it is impossible to find out.

After all, Chen Zexuan has lived in Nanyang for many years, and Gu Jinli has been raised on Nanshan since he was a child.

The eldest lady's daughter, her own sister Gu Jin?, she always wears a veil when she goes out, and rarely attends various banquets, so no one has ever seen Gu Jin? The true face of the people.

But Chen Zexuan knew the inside story of this generation's marriage, and the only thing Gu Chengen could think of was that Gu Jinli told Chen Zexuan about this matter.

After Gu Jinli realized her feelings for her, she began to stay away from him and alienate him, but she had a close relationship with Chen Zexuan in secret!

Damn, Gu Jinli is really a slut!

The fire in his eyes was overwhelming, and Gu Chengen stood up "poofed".

"Xuan Shizi, if it's really a good means, this waiter is really admired!" He glared at Chen Zexuan angrily, feeling annoyed and angry, because he felt that his secret had been exposed, and then he had been tricked like a monkey.

With only these two things, Chen Zexuan took the fatal handle of himself and the Prime Minister.

With such a scheming, I am afraid that there are few people in this world who can compare.

The Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other.

He is sincerely allied with Chen Zexuan, but Chen Zexuan doesn't know what to do, so Gu Chengen doesn't need to waste time on Chen Zexuan.

Without Chen Zexuan, without Nanyang, but he still has himself!

Man is determined to win the sky, he does not believe that he cannot become a dragon and phoenix among people by relying on himself!

He didn't believe that with his strategy, he couldn't gain a firm foothold in the court!

Chen Zexuan has Chen Zexuan's scheme, and he Gu Chengen also has his own Gu Chengen's own methods!

Even if Chen Zexuan knew that he was not Gu Huai's son and knew about Gu Jinli's marriage, so what?

Back then, he and Gu Huai personally "dripped blood to recognize their relatives" in front of the old emperor.

And Gu Jin? is already dead, there is no proof of death, Chen Zexuan is Gu Jin? Digging out of the graveyard, it has long been a pair of white bones.

A bunch of white bones, the Gu family said that it was "Gu Jinli", that was Gu Jinli, the second lady of the Gu family! No one can change it!

As soon as he brushed away Chen Zexuan's hand on his shoulder, he said angrily: "Today, this servant is here in the world, and he can be regarded as being taught!" ”

"Since this squire and the prince are not on the same road, they will go their separate ways in the future!"

"This squire is here, so I wish the prince can get what he wants!"

With that, he shook his sleeves and strode away.

Chen Zexuan looked at the back of Gu Chengen leaving, shook his head, and sneered: "Gu Chengen, this son of the world is bound to win that son." ”

"You bed bug wants to cling to this world, it's really wishful thinking!"

"Xuan." At this time, the man in black, who had been sitting behind the screen for a long time, came out.

He frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Gu Chengen, this person is still somewhat useful, you don't need to make trouble with him because of Sheng'er's affairs." ”

"Besides, there are no eternal friends and no eternal enemies in this world."

"It's not good for you to do you that."

"Master." Chen Zexuan took a deep breath, removed the cold color in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I think that with my own ability, I have enough ability to take that position." ”

"And Gu Chengen is just a little person with a little talent, besides, now his ability and prestige in the court are not as good as before."

"I accepted his overtures, and I just became a backer for him to climb up."

"So, such a person, you don't need it."

In the eyes of the man in black, a person who wants to do great things must not be emotional.

Anything that is beneficial to oneself should be the one who comes.

He snorted coldly and glared at Chen Zexuan: "Xuan, there are some words that Master will not say a second time. ”

"That road is getting closer and closer, but it is precisely because of this that we need to be more cautious."

"From now on, don't be as impulsive as you were just now!"

Regarding the words of the man in black, Chen Zexuan disagreed with it in his heart.

However, he knew that it was best not to contradict the man in black at any time, let alone disobey him.

Nodding absentmindedly, he answered.

The man in black still remembered Xiaoyaozi who was seriously injured by himself before, so he said coldly: "Go to Qingshui Temple for the teacher, you should rest earlier." ”

After just taking a few steps, he paused again: "By the way, you will send a message to King Ning's Mansion tomorrow, so that Sheng'er can hurry up and practice the 'Dementor Spell'." ”

"Yes, Master." After Chen Zexuan waited for the man in black to leave, he sat down again.

Thinking that he hadn't seen Gu Jinli for a long time, he sighed unconsciously.

With a move in his heart, he decided to go to King Ning's Mansion to meet Gu Jinli.

Getting up, he picked up the umbrella at the door and walked out of the courtyard.

The rain was pouring down on the window, and Qi Die sat at the table, listening to the "tick-tock" sound of the rain, and it was difficult for her heart to calm down.

There was always an ambiguous interaction between Zhang Xiaofang and Gu Chengen during the day, and she tightened her lower abdomen.

After struggling for most of the day, no matter how reluctant I was to give up the child in my belly, I couldn't resist the resentment I had against Zhang Xiaofang.

She stood up and shouted to the maid who was making the bed on the side, "Come with me to see Miss Zhang." ”

"Now?" The little maid was stunned for a moment, stopped the movements of her subordinates, subconsciously looked outside, and said in a low voice: "Master, it's raining outside, don't get caught in the rain." ”

"It's okay, I can't sleep, go find Miss Zhang and say a few words." Qi Die naturally couldn't tell the truth to this little girl, because in this Shenfu compound, no one was reliable except herself.

Especially on the issue of Gu Chengen's children, if the news is revealed and flaws are exposed, then let's not talk about whether her identity as an informant will be exposed, just talk about the crime of mutilating the Gu family's heirs, which is enough for Gu Chengen to throw her into the prison of the Criminal Department.

The little maid saw Qi Die's undoubted appearance, so she had to follow Qi Die out of the room together, and the master and servant walked from the bluestone path to the side courtyard not far away.

Zhang Xiaofang lived in the courtyard as a friend of Gu Chengen, and when Qi Die arrived at the door of the room, the light in Zhang Xiaofang's room had not been extinguished, so it could be seen that she had not slept yet.

"Knock knock, knock", Qi Die knocked on the door a few times politely.

Zhang Xiaofang was lying on the bed without any image, very bored with her legs on the wall, and her pants drooped down, revealing her white calves.

"Who?" Hearing someone knocking on the door outside, she stopped kicking the wall and quickly sat up.

"Miss Zhang, it's me, Qi Die." While listening to the movement inside, Qi Die said softly: "Are you asleep?" ”

"Oh oh, no sleep, no sleep!" Although Zhang Xiaofang didn't know what happened to Qi Die's coming over at night, she still pulled the clothes on the side and put them on her body indiscriminately, and hurriedly responded: "You wait, I'll open the door for you!" ”

Although the security in this prime minister's mansion is good, she is an outsider in the end, and the most important thing is a woman, so for her own safety, it is better to plug in the door bolt at night.

quickly got out of bed, she tied her hair with a hairband at will, kicked her shoes and went to open the door for Qi Die.

Of course, she didn't notice that Qi Die called herself "Miss Zhang".

The door opened, revealing Qi Die's face that had captivated the country and the city.

Regarding Qi Die's appearance, Zhang Xiaofang was actually shocked at first glance.

Because, with such a beautiful appearance, anyone who has seen it will definitely never forget it.

She had seen Gu Jinli's face two years ago, and she had testified for Gu Jinli to identify Gu Jin? Reverse black and white, and hit a rake upside down.

At that time, Zhang Xiaofang was a little maid who mixed into the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Gu Jinli was against Gu Jin? Princess Ning, who is identity, is Gu Chengen's nominal sister, so not only Mo Zhiyan, who has a deep affection for Gu Chengen, takes the initiative to get close to Gu Jinli, but even Zhang Xiaofang, an outsider, will stand on Gu Jinli's side because of her love for the house and Wu.

In addition to Gu Chengen's sake, Zhang Xiaofang helped Gu Jinli that time because of Gu Jinli's personality.

Even if she has not had an in-depth understanding of Gu Jinli, Zhang Xiaofang can feel that she is different from ordinary ladies.

Gu Jinli is not as squeamish and arrogant as everyone else's ladies, she is like a clear spring, and just one look will give people a cool and comfortable feeling.

It seems that there is a kind of magic that attracts people to approach unconsciously.

After not seeing Gu Chengen for two years, Zhang Xiaofang mistook Qi Die for Gu Jinli on the street.

On the way back to the Prime Minister's Mansion with Gu Chengen, looking at Qi Die leaning on Gu Chengen's arms softly and bonelessly, she realized that the woman in front of her was not Gu Jinli, but Qi Die, who looked like Gu Jinli, Gu Chengen's concubine.

At that moment, her chest was very blocked, but she was not qualified to have a seizure.

Laughing and pretending not to care, she congratulated Gu Chengen on having a beautiful woman by her side.

As for why this beautiful woman has the same appearance as Gu Jinli, Zhang Xiaofang thought about many possibilities, but she didn't think about Gu Chengen in the direction of having an indecent fetish.

She felt that the world was so big, and there were people who looked similar, and the reason why Gu Chengen would accept a person who looked like his sister as a concubine might be a coincidence.

Maybe Gu Cheng's affection is not Qi Die's appearance, but Qi Die's temperament.

But then again, although Qi Die and Gu Jinli are not much different in appearance, in terms of temperament, they can be recognized.

Qi Die is soft, gentle and humble, and speaks like the lingering Jiangnan minor, which makes people's hearts melt when they listen to it.

Gu Jinli revealed a different kind of attraction in the indifferent water, seemingly a cold person, but like the poppy paste, people couldn't help but want to eat a few more bites after taking a bite.

In comparison, Zhang Xiaofang still prefers Gu Jinli a little more in her selfish heart.

There is another reason why she is in the Prime Minister's Mansion, that is, she heard that Gu Chengen and Mo Zhiyan have reconciled.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have done such a cheeky thing.

Back then, she was reluctant to meddle in other people's feelings, and now it is the same.

It's just that what I didn't expect was that there were no fewer women around Gu Chengen.

Hugh has a main room and a concubine.

Moreover, she is still a pregnant concubine.

Thinking like this, Zhang Xiaofang smiled reluctantly at Qi Die: "Miss Qi Die, are you looking for me, is there anything wrong?" ”

Zhang Xiaofang's face was not sleepy, but Qi Die still deliberately asked, "There is indeed something that disturbs your rest?" ”

As soon as Zhang Xiaofang heard that Qi Die was looking for something for her, she immediately greeted her into the house and said, "No, you come in quickly." ”

After that, she also intimately wiped Qi Die's shoulders that were wet with rain.

Qi Die thanked him with a smile and sat down at the table: "Miss Zhang, I want to ask you something, and please answer me truthfully." ”

"Well, if there is anything you and me, I will know everything, and I will not say anything...... It's not ......" Holding the hand of pouring tea from the tea cup, Zhang Xiaofang's eyes widened and she swallowed: "Uh...... How do you know I'm a woman? ”

This time, she heard the voice "Miss Zhang." ”

Qi Die pointed to his ear piercings and said with a smile: "Here." ”

"Well, I was careless." Zhang Xiaofang put down the teacup, touched her earlobe, and said unhappily: "I didn't expect to be recognized so quickly." ”

Qi Die promised: "Miss Zhang, don't worry, since you don't want others to know your identity, I will definitely not tell you about it." ”

Pushing the teacup in front of Qi Die, Zhang Xiaofang asked, "Miss Qi Die just said that she was looking for me, what is the matter?" I still need you to come so late. ”

"Miss Zhang, I can see that you are very different from Cheng En, so I want to ask you, if Cheng En is willing, will you agree to marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Qi Die held Zhang Xiaofang's hand, her eyes were sincere, and her tone was gentle.

It's just that the palm of her other hand is dripping with fine sweat.

"Huh?" Zhang Xiaofang thought that she had heard it wrong, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to gasp.

Holding her breath, she sat up straight and asked in disbelief, "Qi ...... Miss Qi Die, what did you just say? Can you repeat that again? ”

Qi Die's mood at this time, like Zhang Xiaofang, was nervous and a little expectant.

Mustering up his courage, Qi Die replied: "I want to ask you, are you willing to marry Cheng En?" ”

At this moment, Zhang Xiaofang's head was really confused.

How is she going to answer this question?

"I'm ......" she hesitated, and her eyes began to dodge.
