Chapter 86: Don't dare to admit it

"Princess, don't worry, since Concubine Gu's hand is injured, then we can also add some condiments to her medicine." While pushing Yin Suwan towards the direction of Yixin Courtyard, Baozhu said.

"Heh, you think she's a fool like you?" Yin Suwan listened to it and sneered: "Gu Jinxiu understands medical skills, it is estimated that she will notice in advance before you can do anything." ”

"If you don't do it, you will be defeated in turn!"

Baozhu saw that Yin Suwan was in a bad mood, so he quickly shut up with interest.

Shuang'er followed behind, and then suddenly said, "Princess, Xing Tianzun is missing." ”

"Huh?" When Yin Suwan heard this, she unconsciously raised her voice: "It's so good, how can it be missing?" ”

Shuang'er shook her head and said in a low voice: "The slave doesn't know, even the disciples of Xing Tianzun have disappeared with him. ”

"Perhaps, they ran away with the money of the princess and Madame Yu."

"Not necessarily." Yin Suwan shook her head and said slowly: "According to Gu Jinxiu's scheming, it is very likely that she has already discovered that the mage was found by me or Madame Yu, so it is impossible to say that the mage was killed by her." ”

Shuang'er thought for a moment and was puzzled: "If that's the case, then ...... Why didn't she just bring the mage to confront the prince and clear her name? ”

"If Xing Tianzun really confesses, it can only be a dead end." Yin Suwan hooked her lips and said coldly: "You must know that deception and betrayal are the biggest taboos of the prince. ”

"So, how could Xing Tianzun be so stupid as to kill himself?"

Shuang'er felt that Yin Suwan's analysis was correct, so she said: "It's okay to die, but let's do it." ”

Yin Suwan looked at the shadow of the wheelchair reflected on the ground, and her eyes were calm.

In the palace of Nanyang Wangfu, Chen Zexuan was holding a brush while drawing on paper, and asked, "What do you think of today's events?" ”

Lei Zi said: "Prince Ning can sacrifice his life to block in front of Concubine Gu at a critical moment, which shows that Concubine Gu has an extraordinary status in his heart. ”

Arching his hand, he said respectfully: "The prince has won." ”

"Heh, when did this son look away?" Chen Zexuan glanced at Lei Zi, put away the brush, and said slowly: "Since our temptation was successful this time, then we can focus on Gu Jinxiu in the future." ”

"As for Yin Suwan, it's negligible overall, just use it occasionally"

Today's assassination was arranged by Chen Zexuan and Lei Zi.

The purpose is naturally to determine how deep Qi Hao's feelings for Gu Jinli are, so as to facilitate their actions in the future.

After all, as long as a person has a weakness and something to take care of, then even if he is invincible and invincible, there will always be a way to defeat him......

may not even be able to believe that Gu Jinli's influence in his heart is about to be greater than that of Yin Suwan......

Lei Zi nodded and asked again, "What about ...... Shizi, what should we do next? ”

"How long did it take for the last poison to take effect?" Chen Zexuan blew the ink on the painting that had not yet dried, and said in a deep voice.

Lei Zi recalled for a moment and replied: "After all, it is a chronic poison, and it is estimated that it will take another three or five days." ”

"Three or five days ......" Chen Zexuan pondered for a moment, squinted his eyes, and said quietly: "Okay, although it has been a long time, it can also make the Dongshan military camp suffer serious losses." ”

Lei Zi said: "Three days later, Xiaoyaozi will send someone to King Ning's mansion to treat Princess Ning's leg injury." The subordinates are worried, when there is a situation in the Dongshan military camp, what if Xiaoyaozi makes a move? ”

"What should I do?" Chen Zexuan's evil eyes shot towards Lei Zi, and his body exuded a fierce aura.

Lei Zi secretly asked such a stupid question in his heart, and hurriedly whispered: "My subordinates understand." ”

Chen Zexuan lowered his head, took a closer look at the painting, raised his pen again, and added a few more strokes to the place where he thought it was imperfect, only to see that the eyes that were as clear as water were a little more focused than before.

After finishing the painting, he picked it up and unfolded it in front of Lei Zi and asked, "How is this Shizi drawing?" ”

The person in the painting, three thousand strands of hair fluttering in the wind, like silk threads, entangled in people's hearts.

She sat on the ground, her hands plucked on the strings, and a few drops of blood were splashed on her beautiful face, but it was like a forehead ornament, which added a little more gorgeous.

The blood on the white clothes is also like falling plum blossoms.

From Qi Hao holding Gu Jinli out of the carriage to Xiaoyaozi speaking on the Desperate Cliff, Chen Zexuan and Lei Zi took the "Breathing Pill" to hide their breath, and saw everything clearly in the dark.

Qi Hao desperately blocked the sword, Gu Jinli's eyes were full of distress, the two of them were definitely moved by each other......

It's just that now one doesn't dare to admit it, and the other doesn't know it......

"Uh......" Lei Zi didn't expect Chen Zexuan to draw Gu Jinli, his eyes widened, and he blurted out: "Shizi, what are you doing painting Concubine Gu?" ”

Chen Zexuan raised his thin lips and said softly: "How can such a meaningful scene not be kept as a souvenir?" ”

In fact, the most impressive scene left in his mind was Qi Hao blocking the sword for Gu Jinli, and Gu Jinli's eyes were full of shock and distress.

However, he didn't want to draw it.

Because, in that picture, there is not only Qi Hao, but also Gu Jinli's sadness for Qi Hao......

Lei Zi couldn't guess Chen Zexuan's thoughts, and made a symbolic "oh", so he didn't dare to speak again.

Because, he noticed that Chen Zexuan's eyes staring at the painting became more and more fierce.

"Burn it." Suddenly, just after Lei Zigang closed his mouth tightly, he saw Chen Zexuan throw the painting into his arms.

"Huh?" Lei Zi was stunned, although he was very puzzled, but he still answered the call and turned around and walked out with the scroll.

"Stop!" Just after Lei Zi's feet were about to step out of the room, he heard Chen Zexuan say in a muffled voice: "This painting may come in handy in the future, let's keep it for now!" ”

"Uh...... Yes, Shizi. Lei Zi looked at Chen Zexuan strangely, and respectfully placed the painting on the table.

Chen Zexuan exhaled heavily and asked, "How is King Xuan doing?" ”

Lei Zi said: "The concubine who served King Xuan was Prince Ning's person, so he moved his hands and feet in King Xuan's medicine, and it has been half a month, and he is still in bed to recuperate." ”

"Heh, where is King Xuan's opponent?" Chen Zexuan smiled sarcastically and touched his chin, "Tell me to go down, prepare a generous gift, and let's go to King Xuan's Mansion tomorrow." ”

"It's been so long since I've been back to Beijing, it's time to go and see King Xuan."

"By the way, there are also gifts from the Seventh and Eighth Princes also prepared."

"Shizi, King Xuan has the support of Concubine De and Gu Xiang, which is useful to you, this subordinate understands. But the Seventh Prince, he has no status in the palace, and he is a waste of nothing, what are you going to do to see him? Lei Zi pursed his lips and continued: "And the Eighth Prince, a little child, are you guilty of lowering your status to give him a gift?" ”

Chen Zexuan took a sip of tea from the teacup, and said unhurriedly: "Although the Seventh Prince has no power, no power, and no achievements, you must know that if a person exists, there must be value in his existence." ”

"And in the eyes of this world, where can he be used......" His eyes dimmed, and he smiled meaningfully: "First, last time he sent someone to assassinate Gu Jinxiu on the street, the token handed over by the assassin is a handle that we can use to threaten him." ”

"Second, his affair with the harem concubine is the source of his assassination of Gu Jinxiu, if this matter is publicized, then it will be a greater crime than buying murder."

"Third, everyone has desires, and the Seven Princes can't escape the clutches of desire. Especially when he was not favored in the palace and was treated coldly for many years, he must have thought that one day he would win the favor of the emperor and raise his eyebrows. ”

"However, among the adult princes, the emperor trusts King Ning the most, followed by King Xuan; Among the underage princes, only the eighth prince is the most favored by the emperor. So it is very embarrassing for such a seventh prince who is not up or down. ”

"It's impossible to raise your eyebrows, and if you want to get ahead, you can only take the step of killing your father and usurping the throne."

"What does Shizi mean ......" Lei Zi was shocked when he heard it.

"However, the Seventh Prince is not a person who has achieved great things, at most he is just a clown." Chen Zexuan shook his head and sneered: "This son doesn't expect him to be able to bring down Qi Hao, but it's okay to add some blockage to Qi Hao." ”

"That'...... What about the Eighth Prince? Lei Zi secretly admired Chen Zexuan's thoughts, and asked: "Even if he is favored by the emperor and the queen, he is too young after all!" ”

"Since there is the queen and the emperor who are favored, wouldn't it be convenient to get closer to him, if we want to do something in the palace in the future?" Chen Zexuan shook his head again and added, "Besides, although the Eighth Prince is small now, his future is immeasurable. A few years later, if he really fights against Qi Hao, he can't tell who will win or lose. ”

"The prince is really far-sighted, and his subordinates admire him." Lei Zi arched his hand and said with sincere emotion.

Chen Zexuan waved his hand and said lightly: "Stand down." ”

"Yes." Reiko nodded and strode away.

Chen Zexuan's eyes fell on the scroll, a touch of deep meaning flashed in his eyes, and he was about to open his hand, and then threw it into the drawer of the table.

In the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion, after Gu Huai listened to Gu Chengen's words, he frowned and said, "You mean, Lord Qiu was recommended to the emperor by King Ning's will?" ”

Gu Chengen's eyebrows were cold, and he said quietly: "Don't hide it from my father, because my son was worried that Jinli would encounter danger when he went out, so he sent someone to Xuanji Gate to spend a lot of money to ask for a bracelet with a hidden mechanism." ”

"Maybe it was discovered by Qi Hao, so he deliberately asked me to improve the weapon."

"There are so many cases to deal with in your criminal department, where can you distract yourself from doing anything else?" Gu Huai sighed, thinking that Gu Chengen had just mentioned that he had given Gu Jinli a bracelet to defend himself, and his eyes were very moved when he looked at him: "En'er, you have a heart for Ah Li." ”

Gu Chengen's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a low voice: "It should be." ”

Gu Huai asked again: "By the way, I heard that she was assassinated with Qi Hao?" ”

Gu Chengen nodded and said, "Well, but don't worry, father, Ah Li is fine." ”

"Alas, Ah Li has been raised outside for many years, and her temperament seems to be peaceful and indisputable, but her father knows that she has never regarded Xiangfu as her home." Gu Huai's face was gloomy, and he said in a sad tone: "Originally, my father had already made plans for Ah Li's marriage. ”

"If she doesn't want to marry King Xuan, then Yin Zike is also a good candidate. has a good character, and also has a bit of talent, which is very compatible with Ah Li. ”

"As long as Ah Li is happy, his father will not care about the relationship between the Yin family and Qi Hao."

"However, who would have thought that Jinxiu would cause an incident, and Ali ......"

"Bang!"

There was a loud bang, and the door was kicked open from the outside.

Gu Huai was startled, and immediately looked up at the door.

After seeing Gu Jinxiu with an angry face, he was surprised: "Jinxiu? ”

Gu Chengen inserted half of the sword back into the scabbard, stood up and sat down again.

"Father, you actually want to marry that slut to King Xuan?!" Since the last time she was beaten, Gu Jinxiu's idea of going to King Xuan's Mansion to visit King Xuan was dispelled.

But for many days, the anxiety of not seeing my sweetheart became more and more serious.

In a hurry, she took advantage of the fact that the eldest lady was asleep and came to the study privately, wanting to ask Gu Huai again to see if she could get a chance to leave the house.

However, just when she was about to push the door in, she could hear Gu Huai's words!

Why, the person he likes will be Gu Jinli!

Even if Gu Jinyu and Gu Jinyao's two concubines marry King Xuan, they must be more acceptable than Gu Jinli!

However, why could it be Gu Jinli?

She couldn't figure it out, she couldn't figure it out!

After Gu Chengen heard the word "slut", his eyes were cold, and then the disgust in his eyes was fleeting.

Taking his eyes off Gu Jinxiu, he stopped looking at her.

Arching his hand to Gu Huai, Gu Chengen said in a deep voice: "Father, my son will go back first." ”

Gu Huai nodded, and said to Gu Jinxiu with a calm face: "Jinxiu, as the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, how can you talk like this?" ”

"Heh, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion? It's rare for a father to remember that his daughter is your daughter-in-law! Gu Jinxiu sneered, stepped forward and said angrily: "Father, tell me, why would you rather marry Gu Jinli to King Xuan than your daughter marry him!" ”

Stretching out her finger and pointing at herself, she was unwilling to say: "What is my daughter inferior to her?" Why the hell! ”

Gu Huai moved his lips, his old eyes were complicated, and he said slowly: "Jinxiu, my father has his own father's plans." ”

"King Xuan is not suitable for you, and my father will find a better one for you in the future."

"Even King Xuan's identity and status are not suitable for me, what could be better in this world?" Gu Jinxiu listened, her red eyes were full of hatred.

"Father, am I your daughter?" Pulling Gu Huai's arm, she gritted her teeth and said, "I don't care, in short, I want to marry King Xuan!" ”

Brushing Gu Jinxiu's hand, Gu Huai turned around and said undoubtedly: "No, you can like whoever you like, but King Xuan can't!" ”

Gu Jinxiu clenched her fists, tears rolling in her eyes.

Holding her neck, she stared at Gu Huai's back, and insisted in her tone: "No, my daughter only likes King Xuan alone in her life!" Even if you die, you have to marry him! ”

Gu Jinxiu's eyes were above the top, and she wanted to ask why she was so fond of King Xuan, probably in addition to King Xuan's noble status, but also because he was gentle and handsome, he was the first man who could enter her eyes.

And most importantly, she was the first to take her body......

And most women will have a deep love for their first man, which is unforgettable......

Of course, this excludes the "first time" in its abnormal form.

However, even if it is abnormally taking away the first night, it can still leave an indelible memory......

For example, Qi Hao's first ...... to Gu Jinli

Gu Huai was unmoved, and still turned his cold and hard back to Gu Jinxiu, suppressing the rolling anger in his voice: "It's impossible to die!" ”

Seeing Gu Huai's attitude so resolute, Gu Jinxiu said loudly: "Father, my daughter has long been King Xuan's person!" ”

After hearing this, Gu Huai turned around suddenly, looked at Gu Jinxiu in disbelief, and pointed at her tremblingly: "You...... What did you say? ”

Making a decision in his heart, Gu Jinxiu took a deep breath and said word by word: "Father, a long, long time ago, my daughter had a private agreement with King Xuan for life!" ”

"His daughter loves him, life is his person, death is his ghost."

With a "poof", Gu Jinxiu knelt on the ground, met Gu Huai's dark rolling old eyes, and continued: "Ask my father to be fulfilled!" ”

I have seen too much Gu Jinxiu's brutality and meanness, and it is really rare to see such an affectionate and unswerving side, even the hidden guards of Gu Chengen's faction in the dark can't help but feel a little unbearable when they see it.

"You!" Gu Huai was so angry that he couldn't speak, and raised his hand to slap Gu Jinxiu in the face.

His slap was even heavier than last time, and Gu Jinxiu was caught off guard, and his body fell back to the ground with a "bang".

Covering her face, Gu Jinxiu looked at Gu Huai, who was pale, in a daze, and choked up: "Father, this is the second time you have beaten me...... Because of Gu Jinli, you beat me again! ”

Gu Huai's hand froze in mid-air, his other hand covered his colic heart, his lips twitched, and he burst out of a word in pain for a while: "Get out!" ”

Gu Jinxiu wiped a handful of tears, looked at Gu Huai hatefully, and then suddenly got up and grabbed the door and left.

Gu Huai's body staggered back a few steps, gasping for breath with difficulty, and the next moment he fell to the ground with a "bang".

The subordinates outside the door heard the movement inside, hurriedly came in, and when they saw Gu Huai who was unconscious on the ground, they exclaimed: "Come on, come on!" ”

"The old man fainted, come on!"

The people in the courtyard hurriedly ran in, some helped Gu Huai to the bed, some rushed to find the doctor, and some went to the eldest lady's courtyard to report the news.

In short, the entire Prime Minister's Mansion was in a mess.

Because Qi Hao was seriously injured, the old emperor specially allowed him to recuperate in the palace for a few days.

After breakfast, Yin Suwan was just about to take the chicken soup boiled by Shuang'er to Qi Hao to send to the study, but when she saw Baozhu coming in from outside in a hurry, she said with a panicked face: "Princess, it's not good!" The second young master didn't know what was crazy, but he stabbed the eldest lady with a dagger, you should go back to the mansion and take a look! ”

"Smack!" The soup cup fell from Yin Suwan's hand and fell to the ground, splashing her in an instant.

Grabbing the jewel's hand, she said nervously, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Baozhu shook his head and whispered: "I don't know what is going on, but I only heard the house slave who came to report that the eldest lady seems to be quite seriously injured." ”

"The master was angry, and he personally beat the second young master to death, and the second aunt tried her best to stop it, and she also received a few whips from the master."

Yin Suwan squeezed the handkerchief hard, trying to calm herself, "Shuang'er, clean up, let's go back to Taifu's Mansion immediately!" ”

Turning her head, she said to Baozhu again: "Go to the study and tell the prince, I will go back to the house for a few days, so that he doesn't have to worry." ”

After a pause, he lowered his voice and admonished: "Also, tell Mama Gui that when I am not in the palace, I keep an eye on those courtyards!" No matter how big or small, tell me as soon as there is a stir! ”

"Yes." The two maids nodded, and then one went to the study, and the other went to pack his things.

After Qi Hao heard Baozhu's report, he was stunned at first, although he was a little surprised, but after all, it was a family matter of Taifu's mansion, so he didn't ask much, and directly allowed Yin Suwan to return to the house, and sent a few more guards to escort him all the way.

After Yin Suwan left King Ning's mansion on the front foot, Gu Jinxiu was angry and single-handedly on the back foot, and she didn't even bring a maid to the gate directly.

The guard at the door had never seen her, so he pointed his spear at her and shouted, "Who is it?" ”

Gu Jinxiu stayed up all night last night, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, so as soon as Gu Huai and Gu Chengen went to the morning court, she went out of the house from the back door and went to King Ning's mansion to settle accounts with Gu Jinli.

If it was before, Gu Jinxiu would naturally be too late to hide from Qi Hao, how could he dare to spread wild at the gate of King Ning's Mansion?

However, because she couldn't marry her beloved, the resentment accumulated in her heart had long since made her forget what fear was.

If you really answer that sentence, as long as you have love in your heart, you will be fearless.

Gu Jinxiu didn't know where she got the courage to push the guards away, and said fiercely: "Get out!" ”

"Bold!"

Although the guard is just a doorkeeper, he is also a guard of Ning Wangfu, how can he be so discriminated against by a little girl of unknown origin?

Pushing Gu Jinxiu with his backhand, he raised his spear and was about to swing it at her.

"Stop!" There was a loud shout behind him, and the guard was so frightened that he quickly stopped.

With a sneer, he said to Du Jiang: "Master Du, this woman who doesn't know where she came from has forcibly broken into our palace, and the little one can't get rid of it." ”

When Du Jiang followed Qi Hao to the banquet, he had seen her.

Waving his hand to signal the guards to retreat, he said respectfully: "Second Miss Gu, I don't know what happened to you in the palace?" ”

After all, Gu Jinxiu is Gu Jinli's sister in name, and Gu Jinli also saved Qi Hao's life last night, so she also takes Gu Jinxiu seriously.

"I'm going to see Gu ......" Gu Jinxiu rubbed her waist that was almost flashed, and the words that blurted out were swallowed unwillingly by her, and said with a cold face: "I'm going to see your concubine Gu Fang, I have something to say to her." ”

Since he came to find Gu Jinli, Du Jiang had no reason to stop him.

Nodding, he stretched out his hand and said, "Second Miss Gu, please." ”

On the second day after Gu Jinli and Qi Hao got married, Gu Jinxiu came to King Ning's Mansion with the eldest lady, so she also knew where the Fuyuan Courtyard was, so she didn't need to find someone to lead the way, and she quickly arrived at the gate of the courtyard herself.

Because Gu Jinli was tired for a day yesterday and her fingers were injured, Aiyue and Hexiang didn't let the people go to the front yard, for fear that too many people would disturb Gu Jinli's rest.

"Big ...... Second Miss? Aiyue was watering the flowers in the courtyard, and when she looked up and saw the angry Gu Jinxiu, she couldn't help but have her eyes falling out.

Gu Jinxiu glanced at Aiyue fiercely, and then rushed straight into the room without saying a word.
