Except for this little episode, the flower-viewing banquet at the princess's mansion today is still going very smoothly.

The guests and hosts enjoyed together, everyone gathered together to talk and laugh, and the scene was indescribably lively and prosperous.

It is...... It seems to be a little too lively.

Gu Caiwei stood in the crowd, watching these people fit so well, and a casual word could make everyone laugh and lean back, she always felt that such a picture was so unreal. It feels like a mirror to her, and it will disappear after a little touch.

I don't know when this feast ended, when Gu Caiwei said goodbye to Princess Taiping and left, Princess Taiping also pulled her to explain: "You have been living in Luoyang for the past few days, and when you are free, I will arrange for Brother Seventh and Changning Hou to meet." ”

Gu Caiwei nodded and agreed.

"By the way, when you look at An Le today, what do you see? Why has she been hiding so much that she won't even give you the pulse? Princess Taiping immediately asked again.

Gu Caiwei smiled. "Little lady, you always have to be strong. She actually doesn't have any big problems, just to look good, she doesn't eat all the time, and she starves herself so much that her body is too weak. She must have been afraid that you would teach her a lesson if I said it, so that's why she did that. ”

"Is that really all there is to it?" Princess Taiping didn't believe it.

Gu Caiwei smiled lightly. "Princess, you know how hard the Luling King's family lived in Fangzhou. Now that they have returned, they must not be happy to think back to the days of humiliation they suffered in Fangzhou. In that case, why should we poke a knife in their hearts again? It is imperative that we let them gain a firm foothold in the court as soon as possible. ”

Princess Taiping stared at her deeply for a long time before guarding her gaze. "That's it, I'll just take what you said is true."

Gu Caiwei hurriedly bowed her head and saluted, and quickly said goodbye and left.

When I returned to the carriage hall, I saw that Du Junqing was already standing there, and immediately Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan also came back. Unlike the two elders, these two little ones were full of smiles and joy.

"Daddy and Auntie, Erlang really thinks about us! You see, these are all gifts that he has prepared for us! Du Yi excitedly held the small basket in his hand high, allowing them to see all kinds of gadgets inside.

Gu Tianyuan also said with a smile: "He also likes the dagger we used to beat with the iron ore in Yongxing County, and he put it away as precious as a baby." We also made an appointment that when the two of us finished our studies, we would definitely give him more and better things! ”

"Really? Then it's good for you to be happy. Gu Caiwei nodded, and hurriedly took the two little ones into the carriage.

In the carriage, the two of them talked to Gu Caiwei about what they had seen and heard when they were playing with Xue Chongjian.

There are many guests who come to the house today, and there are also many little ladies and gentlemen, including many royal relatives and nobles. From their mouths, Gu Caiwei roughly knew that these little Langjun and little ladies were also divided into factions - of course, they were the Wu faction and the Li faction.

Although the children of both factions were arranged in one place, they played with themselves and did not play with the children of the other faction at all. Even, even the children born to the Xue family and the Wu family by Princess Taiping respectively, these brothers and sisters have clearly divided the boundaries between them.

"By the way, there is also the one named Anle County Lord, she is so fierce!" Du Yi suddenly added.

Gu Caiwei's eyelids immediately jumped. "What's wrong with her? I didn't think you had a face-to-face with you today. ”

"It's true that we haven't met her, but Erlang has met her, and we've met more than once!" Gu Tianyuan hurriedly said, "Erlang told us that this Anle County Lord has a very good temper, and he knows that he is spoiled at a glance. And she doesn't like children very much, no matter whether she is a little lady or a little lady, she is disgusted. Last time, the princess took Erlang and them to the East Palace as guests, and the county lord of Anle was very polite to them on the surface, but in private, she secretly pinched Erlang several times! ”

"Is there such a thing?" Gu Caiwei frowned slightly.

"Growing up in Fangzhou, under the conditions that are not very good, she can develop such a murderous character, so when she returns to the Shendu now, she is flattered by the stars and moons, and she must not explode? Especially since she has such a good-looking face...... I'm afraid this little lady will cause a lot of trouble in the future! She muttered to herself.

When Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan heard this, they didn't believe it.

"Isn't it just a little lady? No matter how arrogant she is, when she grows up and chooses a colt, the person who endures her bad temper is a colt, what does it have to do with others? ”

"That's what you're going to do. In these years, if the little lady is bad, it will not be much worse than a man. Gu Caiwei said lightly, "If you don't believe it, you can wait and see in the future!" ”

Just thinking about it like this, her mood went down - sure enough, this court full of calculations was really not her favorite place. She still yearns for the happy days when she was flying freely on the rivers and lakes.

However, now that there is a Du Junqing tied to her side, she can't fly even if she wants to.

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and when she returned to the house, she beat Du Junqing.

Du Junqing was inexplicable. "Someone in the princess's mansion bullied you? Who? You tell me, I'll help you get revenge! ”

"No one, I'm just in a bad mood." Gu Caiwei said coolly.

When the man who was beaten saw this, he couldn't get angry with her. Now he still has to take the initiative to come over and pat her on the back with one hand: "Okay, okay, don't be angry." By the way, on the way back, I heard you and Ah Yi say that the Lord of Anle is coming? What's wrong with her? You're in a bad mood today, but it's because of her? ”

"Actually, the county lord of Anle is a trivial matter, I just think that this lively and prosperous picture in front of me is very fake, but I am afraid that it will fall apart if it doesn't last long. I don't know what will happen when the time comes! As for the Lord of Anle......"

Gu Caiwei thought about it, but she still told Du Junqing the truth. "Today, Princess Taiping asked me to check the pulse of the crown princess and others, so as to take the opportunity to let me contact them, but the county lord of Anle disagreed. The more she disagreed, the more I couldn't help but look at her a few more times, and guess what I found? ”

"Did she do things with people in private, for fear of being discovered by you, so she refused to show you?" Du Junqing guessed.

"No, it's worse than you think." Gu Caiwei said in a low voice, "I see that her face is pale, her eyebrows are sparse, and her legs are weak when she walks, which is a symptom of kidney loss." If nothing else, she should have had a child in her womb not long ago, and she was not a young month. ”

Du Junqing's face immediately changed.

"What about the kids? She...... Born? ”

"It looks like it should have been forced." Gu Caiwei's voice darkened.

Du Junqing was speechless for an instant.

Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "From what I've observed, the kid has been five or six months old, to say the least. was beaten out like this in her mother's womb, and it is difficult to say whether she will die or live in the end. If it is seven months old and you are taken away and taken care of after birth, then there is still a chance of surviving. But if it's a little smaller, or if it's thrown away directly after birth, then nine out of nine won't survive. ”

After a pause, she added in a low voice. "Just judging by the attitude of the county lord of Anle who didn't say a word about this child and tried his best to hide this matter, she is ten out of ten eager for this child to die quickly!"

"In that case, why did she have to conceive her?" Du Junqing asked in a low voice.

"Who knows? Maybe it's for a moment of pleasure, or maybe one day she suddenly wants to have a child to play? Gu Caiwei smiled helplessly, "Speaking of which, this world is so unfair. How many people have eaten fasting and recited Buddha all their lives, built bridges and paved roads, and done all the good deeds, but they can't ask for a child. Some people do a lot of evil in their lives, and eventually they have children and grandchildren. Ridiculous, isn't it? ”

As soon as her words fell, she immediately noticed that her body was in the air, and Du Junqing picked her up!

She was so frightened that she quickly hugged his neck. "What are you doing?"

"Don't you want to have children? Then don't talk so much nonsense, let's hurry up and create people! Du Jun said clearly, hugged her directly to the bed, and began to make people!

Gu Caiwei instantly lost her thoughts of sadness. The room was soon filled with the soft chants of men and women.

Next, Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan, who saw Xue Erlangjun and were satisfied, embarked on the journey back to Yongxing County together. Gu Caiwei and Du Junqing temporarily settled down in Luoyang.

During this period, Princess Taiping made a few more gatherings, and Gu Caiwei would go there every time. Du Junqing naturally did not fall behind.

Soon, they were all branded princelings.

Merely......

In private, Du Junqing also complained about the prince with Gu Caiwei. "This person's temperament is too soft, obviously he has been named the crown prince, and he will be the emperor of my Tang Dynasty in the future, but he doesn't have much of a prince at all. The left and right guards were pinched in his hands, but he didn't know how to use them at all, and he was still currying favor with the martial artists everywhere. Right now, look at how long they have been back, and the crown prince has already married many of his children to the Wu clan! ”

Truly. Less than two months after the prince's family returned, the county lord of Xindu had already been promised to Wu Yanhui, and the county lord of Yongtai had been married to Wu Yanji...... Almost all the daughters of the right age were sent out and married by the prince! There are also several concubines of the emperor's grandson, who are also selected from the martial family and those closely related to the martial family.

These are all things on the surface, of course Gu Caiwei has known about it for a long time.

She sighed helplessly. "Naturally, these family affairs have also been approved by Her Majesty the Empress. Her Majesty the Empress wishes that the Wu family and the Li family would have been friends for generations and have always lived in harmony. ”

"It can only be her beautiful fantasy. Now not to mention the Li family, the martial family is afraid that they all hate the Li family to death! Du Junqing snorted softly.

Because the empress brought back King Luling as the crown prince, King Wu Chenghei of Wei fell seriously ill and just passed away a few days ago. He's the pillar of the martial arts family!

Although after Wu Chenghei passed away, the Wu family immediately stood up and another Wu Sansi took his place, and he did not do a bad job - after all, the Wu family has the protection of the empress, and they haven't done much serious work, so it is still easy to take over the mess in Wu Chengsi's hands.

Now, the Wu family must have blamed Wu Chenghe's death on the prince's family - if they hadn't come back, how could Wu Chengsi have died? Even if the crown prince hurriedly married his concubine, the lord of Yongtai, to Wu Chenghe's eldest son, the new Wei king Wu Yanji, this move would definitely not be enough to calm the anger in their hearts. It's just that now the prince and his entourage have just returned, and the Wu family is inconvenient.

"How many royals surnamed Li did the empress kill in order to ascend to the throne? She didn't even spare her own son. I'm afraid that the Li family has already been killed by her. Gu Caiwei said helplessly.

But Du Junqing shook his head. "Not necessarily all of them, either."

Gu Caiwei immediately raised her eyebrows. "Did you see someone different?"

Du Jun cleared his head. "These days, I went out for a walk and saw a little Langjun, although he was not very old, but he was very knowledgeable. I've talked to him a few times and I'm very impressed. ”

When Gu Caiwei heard this, she immediately became interested. "Who is that? Is it the prince's son? ”

"It's the son of King Xiang, the third one under King Xiang's knees, King Linzi, whose name is Li Longji." Du Junqing replied.

Gu Caiwei frowned. "I haven't heard of that name."

"It's normal that you haven't heard of it. When the empress ascended the throne and exiled King Luling's family to Fangzhou, although King Xiang was preserved, he sacrificed his two beloved concubines. Since then, the family has been confined to the palace and has not been able to meet outsiders at all. Now it is all thanks to the blessing of Di Ge Lao, Di Ge Lao persuaded the empress to take back the Luling Wang's family, and then the Xiangwang family was lifted and was able to come out to meet people. Du Junqing said slowly.

At this point, he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips. "Xiao Langjun, who is only thirteen years old, has been confined in the palace all the year round, but his knowledge and conversation are very good, even far surpassing many Xiao Langjun of the same age. It can be seen that even if he was locked up in the palace, he did not give up on himself. Now that he has been released, he will become a great weapon in the future. This is enough to show that there is still hope for the Li Tang royal family! ”

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, the corners of his mouth were curled high, and his eyes were shining, and he looked proud.

Gu Caiwei saw it in her eyes, and she couldn't help but get excited.

"If that's the case, then we can hope for a while. Merely...... The third son of King Xiang, his identity seems to be a bit far away. ”

"If you are not a master, you are a virtuous man, and that is okay." Du Junqing said.

"That's right." Gu Caiwei nodded.

It's just that......

Seeing this person so excited, Gu Caiwei's heart was inexplicably sour and a little sour.

She was jealous.

Moreover, it is not the vinegar of other little ladies who eats, but ...... This home country!

That's right, seeing that Du Junqing cared so much about national affairs, and even looked so jubilant when she saw the hope of the revival of the Li Tang royal family, she was jealous.

She grew up in the rivers and lakes, and was exposed to her grandfather all the year round, and she was not interested in those official positions and money, she never just wanted to be comfortable in her heart and be frank and honest all her life. But Du Junqing is different, he is the Jingzhao Du clan and the famous minister Du Ruhui, and he has loyalty to the Li Tang Dynasty rooted in his bones. Even though the Lai Guo Mansion has fallen down, and even the country name has been changed to Wu Zhou now, deep down he still hopes that the Li Tang royal family can regain its strength. In order to achieve this goal, he is willing to give everything he has!

In fact, when you look at it in detail, they are indeed not the right household. But why did they just come together?

If someone else told her - I will fight for the world of the Li Tang royal family! She must have kicked the person away with a straight kick and let him stay where he was cool. But now it's Du Junqing's turn...... But she was reluctant.

Knowing that if she leaves this place, she will be able to get back on track immediately, and her life will still be chic and happy. But as long as she thought about it, there would be no Du Junqing in such a day, and she suddenly felt empty in her heart, and she couldn't take a step.

Du Junqing was excited for a long time. It was easy to wait for his mood to calm down, and he realized that Gu Caiwei's face was not very good-looking.

He was not stupid, so he naturally figured out the reason immediately, and his heart tightened instantly, and he quickly held her hand.

Gu Caiwei came back to her senses. "What are you doing?"

"You're going to let me be willful for once, okay?" Du Junqing looked into her eyes and whispered, his expression was a little cautious.

Gu Caiwei looked at him quietly. "Wayward what?"

"It's the thing in front of you. Help the royal family restore orthodoxy and let the Tang Dynasty return to the control of the Li family. Du Junqing said in a deep voice.

Gu Caiwei pursed her lips and was silent, and Du Junqing also lowered her eyes. "I know it's ridiculous to others. After all, with my current status, if I didn't have that iron mine as a backer, it would not be worth mentioning among so many nobles in the DPRK. But as a descendant of the Du family, I have been deeply influenced by my ancestors since I was a child, and now that my family and country have been overturned, especially a group of wastes surnamed Wu are still eyeing this position, I always feel that it is not a taste in my heart. In that case, I must do everything I can to get everything back on track. ”

"But!" Immediately, he grabbed Gu Caiwei's hand tighter, "When everything returns, I won't care, I'll accompany you to the end of the world, we will go wherever you want, okay?" ”

"Can you talk?" Gu Caiwei asked softly.

Du Junqing fixed the fixed head. "Yes! Absolutely! From the beginning to the present, how have I ever lied to you? ”

"You said less, huh?" Gu Caiwei complained angrily, "From the moment I just opened my eyes in this body, you pretended not to see that I had changed someone." Later, you dug pit after pit for me to jump into! Until now, I'm still at the bottom of the pit and haven't climbed out! ”

Du Junqing was speechless for a moment.

"This ...... I don't have any other way, who told you to think about leaving all day long? ”

Gu Caiwei gritted her teeth. "Then don't say anything you haven't lied to me! What virtue do you have, I don't know? ”

Du Junqing was like a big dog who was reprimanded for doing something wrong, and lowered his head in frustration. "I was wrong."

Gu Caiwei snorted softly with satisfaction.

"And now it's clearly a hole you've dug for me! Getting rid of the martial arts family and restoring the Li Tang royal family seems to have only two things, but once you take action, why not just do these two things? Needless to say, the time spent in this middle is less, ten or twenty years is less! ”

So, after so long, this guy is still digging holes for her, and he is digging deeper and deeper!

She stood at the bottom of the pit, and she could barely see the scenery outside.

Du Junqing's head hung lower instantly, but the hands that wrapped her soft hands did not let go a bit.

Seeing this, what else could she say?

With a low sigh, she could only pinch him on the arm. "Let's take this as a lesson for you to trick me again!"

Her strength was really not small, and Du Junqing gasped in pain.

But when the pain was over, he immediately raised his head and smiled at her: "You are so good to me." ”

Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "Don't you just rely on me to be good to you, so you dare to do whatever you want?"

Du Junqing laughed dryly twice and hurriedly hugged her.

The days in Luoyang passed quickly, and before I knew it, autumn passed, and time entered winter.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the people who are keen to hold all kinds of feasts have finally stopped a lot. But Du Junqing didn't relax much because of this, because the day when he promised the empress to sacrifice the improved Mo Dao was not far away!

Moreover, that time in Chang'an, after he presented the new arrowhead to the empress, the iron mine also began to work overtime to cast arrowheads, just waiting for a batch to be sent to the border before the arrival of midwinter. In this way, if the Turks fight again, the border soldiers will be able to fight a beautiful battle!

So he's busy all day long. Every time a message came from Yongxing County, he didn't have to sleep all night.

Easy, on this day at the end of October, a new Mo knife can be regarded as delivered!

After Du Junqing got it, he immediately entered the palace and dedicated it to the empress.

If nothing else, the Empress will be pleased, and she will reward him again! Gu Caiwei thought to herself.

However, when Du Junqing came back from the palace in the afternoon, his face was cold, and even a heavy black aura was shrouded in his body.

He's angry! And it's not light!

Gu Caiwei frowned slightly when she saw this, and she hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" Is Your Majesty thinking that this Mo knife has not been changed well? ”

"No, Your Majesty is very satisfied, and the soldiers are full of praise after seeing it. Your Majesty also directly promoted me to be the general of the right guard, and rewarded me with a cart of jewels. Du Jun replied coldly.

What a joy it is! Why is his face so ugly?

Then it can only be that something else happened when he entered the palace, and it was closely related to him!

"Is it a samurai? And what did they do? Gu Caiwei asked in a low voice.

Du Junqing slowly spoke: "They collected many skilled craftsmen from all over the world, took all the people to the iron mine in Yangxin County, and ordered people to work overtime, but we made 10,000 arrows in half a month, and even now the arrows have been sent to the various defenders at the border pass!" ”

Speaking of this, he raised his eyes and looked at Gu Caiwei again. "When the things arrived, they informed Her Majesty of the news - and they also chose the day when I entered the palace today to offer Mo Dao."

When Gu Caiwei heard this, she couldn't help but feel a surge of blood in her heart.

"The surname Wu is shameless!" She yelled angrily.

Obviously stealing their design, this group of people even dared to make arrows in front of them and send them away. Then, he deliberately chose this time today to ask Her Majesty for merit and reward. To say that they didn't mean it, Gu Caiwei didn't believe it.

She could completely understand why Du Junqing's face was so ugly.

"What about Your Majesty? What was her reaction? ”

"Your Majesty saw that the martial artists had finally come out, and naturally they were in a good mood, and praised them again and again." Du Junqing said.

Gu Caiwei's heart sank. "And then? You showed her the improved arrows yourself! ”

"Then, His Majesty took pity on me for working too hard to make the Mo knife, and while supervising the craftsmen to make the arrowheads, he also rewarded me with a cart of jewelry." Du Junqing replied coldly.

The implication is that he clearly intends to gag his mouth with this cart of jewelry and make him accept reality!

Her Majesty's heart is indeed too biased.

Gu Caiwei is angry now. "Can a mere cart of jewelry buy out all the efforts of so many craftsmen we need? In her eyes, are we so cheap? ”

Du Junqing pursed his lips and was silent.

And at this time, Du Ren came in again.

"Master Hou, the king of Xin'an sent you a letter of worship."

"He still has the face to post for you?" Gu Caiwei laughed angrily, "They are really shameless!" ”

When Du Junqing heard this, he directly stretched out his hand. "Show me it."

Du Ren hurriedly sent a post. Du Junqing opened it and looked at it, and the corners of his lips suddenly hooked up slightly.

Gu Caiwei saw it in her eyes, and a touch of surprise also appeared in her heart. "What did he say?"

Du Junqing handed her the post casually. Gu Caiwei took it and took a look, and she couldn't help laughing: "Saying that they are shameless, they really carried out the shameless spirit to the end!" Learn how we rectify the mine, learn from us to build arrows, and even now want to learn the technology of making new Mo knives? Their appetite is really big! ”

As she spoke, she casually tossed the post away. "You can't get used to them. Especially this technique of building a Mo knife, you must not teach them! ”

"If you don't teach them, won't they steal?" Du Junqing only said.

Gu Caiwei's face sank again.

But she immediately found that the corners of Du Junqing's mouth were curling higher and higher - he actually smiled!

Gu Caiwei immediately sensed that something was wrong. She hurriedly grabbed his sleeve: "You tell me honestly, do you still have a back hand?" ”

"What else do you need to say?" Du Junqing immediately bowed his head.

Gu Caiwei's eyes narrowed slightly, and she heard this man say: "When I was in Yongxing County, I used to talk to masters like Ou Shenzi and Fufengzi alone. From them, we know that ordinary craftsmen always have to leave their own marks on things when making things. Especially the transcendent masters, the reason why they can leave other peers far behind, in addition to their own ability is much higher than those people, there is actually another reason. ”

Gu Caiwei suddenly realized.

She immediately spoke, and Du Junqing said in unison-"Open the back door!" ”

This opening of the back door is naturally not the use of one's position to seek some benefits for others as ordinary people say. In the mouth of the craftsman, this opening of the back door means that the craftsmen will leave a little flaw in the process of creating things, and then make up for this flaw in the process of subsequent processing. When everything is done, the flaws are gone, and ordinary people can't find them at all.

Generally speaking, the process of creating the work is not important, leaving the flaws and then repairing them is the master's master's mastery.

But if someone wants to secretly build something like this and sell it for money...... If he didn't have the master's hand, and the means of repairing the flaws were not in place, then when the thing really came in handy, something would have happened!

It's like two scholars writing an article together, and one of them thinks about it and writes it. The other person is mediocre, but he is unwilling to be trampled under the feet of the other party, and then he came up with the means of plagiarism. It just so happens that he has no other skills, only one advantage of fast writing. Therefore, while the other party was writing, he copied at the same time, and then he even handed in the paper before the other party handed in the paper!

He thought he was the first to turn in the paper and would win. But I never thought that the person who was thoughtful had already left a trap when writing the article. Just wait for the other party to finish copying, and add another stroke by yourself, so that the previous trap is filled, and everything is complete and smooth. But although the plagiarist handed in the paper first, the examiner could see at a glance that there was a problem.

In this way, it is useless for him to hand in the paper first, and it can be seen at a glance that it is plagiarism!

This is the same reason as Du Junqing and them opening the back door.

Therefore, although he was angry after discovering that the samurai had copied their arrows and made them first, he did not attack on the spot, but just accepted the reward from the empress and went home.

It's just that now that he saw Wu Chonglie can't wait to come to him to show off his might, he still can't hold back the contempt in his heart, and smiles gloatingly.

Gu Caiwei was also in a good mood instantly.

She cheered, and quickly jumped up and jumped on top of him, hooking her hands around his neck and wrapping her feet around his waist. Then she kissed him several times on the cheek. "I knew that my man was the best! How could you still endure watching the real one surnamed Wu take away our credit! ”

Du Junqing hurriedly hugged her, and there was a touch of smugness between his eyebrows. "That's nature. I know what virtues the surname Wu has, so I took precautions early. So, let's wait and see! ”

"That's it!" Gu Caiwei nodded again and again as if the chicken was pecking rice.

It's just that after only a few clicks, she suddenly felt dizzy and her stomach was tumbling, and she wanted to vomit?

Quickly pushed Du Junqing away and jumped down, she ran to the corner and retched for a while, but she didn't vomit anything.

When Du Junqing saw this, his face immediately changed drastically - this change was much more than the moment when he heard Wu Chonglie triumphantly ask the empress for merit and reward.

He stared at Gu Caiwei stupidly for a long time before he whispered, "What's wrong with you?" Is it because you are not feeling well? I'll ask a doctor to show you! ”

When Gu Caiwei heard this, she couldn't help but look back at him. "You idiot! It's a shame that you still took care of your sister! ”

Du Junqing blinked. "What does this have to do with my sister?"

I can't stand the glass on the side. "Master Hou, the lady's monthly letter is not here!"

"The monthly letter hasn't come for two months? Is that sick? Du Junqing said subconsciously.

But right away, he reacted.

His face was full of ecstasy in an instant, and he hurriedly ran over to pick up Gu Caiwei carefully, and did not forget to instruct: "Du Ren, you rejected the invitation of the King of Xin'an County." By the way, tell him that Ben Hou will be very busy next, no one will see him, and he won't care about anything! ”
