Before Xiao Yue arrived in the capital, he heard that the eldest princess of the protector had arrived in the capital, and he also took Gu Nian to the Anyuan Marquis Mansion, he left his entourage and entered the Beijing alone, touched the Anyuan Marquis Mansion, but he didn't expect to see Gu Nian and Zhou Yuxuan together.

Gu Nian heard him ask Zhou Yuxuan about it, and looked at her defensively, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Are you sure you're going to marry him?" Xiao Yue asked coldly.

Gu Nian looked at him strangely, and said coldly,

"The order of my parents, the words of the matchmaker, since the family matter has been decided, I will naturally not marry someone else against my grandmother's wishes."

Xiao Yue sneered, "Just because of this? ”

"Marriage is not a matter that the daughter's family can decide, so don't men obey their parents' orders?" Gu Nian returned.

"What's so good about him? Why don't you want to marry me, I'm still the prince? Xiao Yue looked at Gu Nian with his hands on his chest, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked.

"Yes, His Royal Highness is the respect of the prince and is deeply favored, my cousin is just a small son, how can I compare with you, I said, marriage is not something I can call the shots......"

Gu Nian didn't say any more, it was really pointless to dwell on this issue, even if she didn't marry her cousin, she wouldn't marry the murderer in front of her.

But she didn't dare to say anything else, she couldn't bother her cousin.

Xiao Yue is not interested in many things, even killing, sometimes he feels very bored, but he only cares about it, so that he always remembers it in his heart and wants to see him.

But Gu Nian clearly didn't want to see him, avoiding him like a snake and scorpion, which made him unacceptable, although the women he had contact with were very limited, and he didn't understand those people's sophistication, but he knew that even if he had a ruthless personality, there were still many women who flocked to him.

Why doesn't it work to go to Gu Nian here?

Gu Nian wanted to say that he should pay attention in the future and not appear suddenly like this, but when he saw his evil appearance, he didn't dare to say it, for fear that if he did, Xiao Yue would make a move on Zhou Yuxuan.

"Your nurse didn't meet your aunt's people, after you inquired that day, she has been raising money, hey, I didn't expect you to have a lot of money, but your nurse is also very rich and sells a lot of things, but it's not from where you ......"

Xiao Yue wanted to use the news received by his subordinates to curry favor with Gu Nian.

Mama Chen is indeed very weird, but if she really wants her to believe that the poison on her body is from her aunt, shouldn't she rush to find her aunt's side? After all, she's been exposed.

Puzzled, Xiao Yue looked at her thinking, her eyelids drooped slightly, and her eyelashes trembled, as if scratching his heart, itchy.

He twisted his thumb on the sleeve and gently rubbed the embroidery on the sleeve, circle by circle, slowly smoothing the itching on his heart......

"Don't worry, I'll send someone to keep an eye on you, it's the fox that can always show his feet, according to my meaning, it's to arrest your nurse and interrogate her, I'm not afraid that she won't tell who is behind the scenes......"

Xiao Yue muttered.

Gu Nian just stared at him fiercely with wide eyes, "Don't you suddenly appear like this in the future, this is the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion, and my grandmother is also there." ”

"Yo, my grandmother is here, and she is confident and wants to kick me away?" Xiao Yue supported his forehead with one hand, said lazily, with a little inexplicable little grievance, and there seemed to be melancholy in his eyes, with his appearance, he looked like a lonely, melancholy male god.

Gu Nian smiled, Xiao Yue's expression at this moment was as if she had been prostituted but did not give money, and she sighed in her heart.

"Lord Wang, I have a marriage contract, once upon a time, I was wrong, I apologize to you." Gu Nian said.

Xiao Yue laughed and said, "It seems that you are really afraid that I will ruin your good marriage, okay, you will come in the future." ”

He said a little jokingly, looking at Gu Nianxiao, as if he wanted to see her through.

Gu Nian let him look at it, a picture of not caring, and there was actually a little headache in his heart.

"Okay, don't tell anyone about your poisoning, including your grandmother, and wait until I find out the cause of the matter before making a decision." Xiao Yue's face was full of solemnity, and he said to Gu Nian seriously.

That Mama Chen, it doesn't look simple, Xiao Yue doesn't have a brainless appearance in everything as it looks on the outside, otherwise, Emperor Yongping would not hand over the spy matter to him.

Gu Nian heard his suddenly solemn tone, and before she could react for a while, she saw Xiao Yue quickly rubbing her head, and then disappeared......

*

Since Xiao Yue said that he would not let the eldest princess of the protector know first, Gu Nian did not say it, in fact, it was more that Gu Nian didn't want her to worry about it.

When the eldest princess returned to Beijing, the banquet held by each family had been scheduled for a month later, and the eldest princess would naturally go first to the royal family and her in-laws, and then she would pick and choose to go to the banquet.

The day before the winter solstice, it was the turn of the eldest princess's mansion to have a banquet, although Mrs. An Yuanhou escaped being sent to the temple to fast last time by pretending to be sick, but An Yuanhou cleaned up a remote small mansion behind the garden into a small Buddha hall, let Mrs. An Yuanhou move in, and the housekeeper's affairs were also handed over to several old grandmothers of An Yuanhou.

Originally, the eldest princess of the protector didn't go to such a banquet, but after Mrs. An Yuanhou made trouble, she didn't want to hang Gu Nian on Zhou Yuxuan's tree anymore.

So she went to the banquet of the royal family and the old friends of the in-laws with Gu Nian.

Gradually, Gu Nian also had a good reputation in the circle of nobles in Beijing, and at the banquet of the eldest princess, the third princess took the initiative to provoke, and she overwhelmingly defeated the third princess, which is obvious to all.

Moreover, Emperor Yongping also rewarded the eldest princess from time to time, and he didn't forget to send a copy to the Marquis of Anyuan Mansion if he had good things, and Gu Nian suddenly became a fragrant sweetheart.

The eldest princess invited the eldest princess to the princess of the country, and naturally there were other people, Gu Nian didn't expect that the Gu family would also receive a post.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and when there are many people, there will naturally be all kinds of gangs and factions.

Gu Ci's popularity in the Jingzhong circle is still good, she arrived before Gu Nian, so naturally she sat down with her handkerchief and chatted together.

When the carriage of the Marquis of Anyuan arrived at the princess's mansion, the box in front of the princess's mansion was already crowded with the carriages of various mansions that had come to the banquet today, and after waiting for a quarter of an hour, the carriage entered the door, and then stopped in front of the second gate, and the women sat in the small sedan chair of the princess's mansion, and the men were led to the place where the male guests gathered.

After getting off the sedan chair, the eldest princess of the country took Gu Nian to the flower hall under the guidance of the princess's grandmother.

There were already a lot of women sitting in the flower hall.

The eldest princess stood at the door, surrounded by the princesses of several clans, the princesses of the county, all of whom were of noble status, and when she saw the princess of the protector, she hurriedly greeted her.

"I've seen my aunt." The eldest princess smiled and saluted the eldest princess of the country, and the women on the side also came up to salute, and when they arrived at the flower hall, they were saluted again.

After sitting down, Gu Nian finally saw the appearance of the eldest princess clearly, the eldest princess has a gorgeous appearance, she is a rare beautiful woman, because of the princess's self-esteem and noble status, she has a graceful and luxurious royal bearing, which just overwhelms the overly gorgeous appearance, but makes her dignified and dignified.

When her phoenix eyes are smiling, the peach blossoms are rippling, and when she is restrained, she is not angry and arrogant.

At this time, the eldest princess had a smile on her face, asked the princess to sit on the top, and beckoned to Gu Nian,

"The last time I invited you here, I didn't see you and I left, quick, let me take a good look, speaking of which, you still have to call me aunt."

Gu Nian looked at the princess of the Guardian Country, and after getting her head, he stepped forward generously.

There are many girls in the flower hall whose eyes are red, especially Gu Ci who is at the bottom, and her heart is very unpleasant.

The eldest princess took Gu Nian's hand and looked at it for a while, and sighed,

"I used to think that I was very beautiful, and I was used to seeing the beauty of the world, who knew that there was such a handsome girl in the world, aunt, you can let her often come to talk to me in the future."

The eldest princess wants to pave the way for Gu Nian, and it is naturally a good thing that the eldest princess likes her so much, not to mention that the eldest princess is deeply favored by Emperor Yongping.

The eldest princess pulled Gu Nian to sit beside her, asked some questions, and then reluctantly let go of Gu Nian's hand and socialized with those ladies.

She waved her hand and said to the girls present, "You little girls don't want to sit in the flower hall, go out to play, although it is cold, but many of the gardens are separated by screens, you can play by yourself." ”

After saying that, he called a maid to show them the way.

After a group of girls came out of the flower hall, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Gu Nian also breathed a sigh of relief, when the eldest princess asked her to come forward to speak, the girls in the hall looked at her like knives, it was a rare thing to be praised by the eldest princess, and she was actually able to be Gu Nian.

As soon as she came out of the flower hall, two people walked up to Gu Nian and greeted her with a smile, one of them was Liu Danyang, the girl of Lord Yin Liu of Shuntian Mansion, and another Gu Nian didn't know.

Liu Danyang listened to Lord Liu go home and tell Gu Nian's heroic deeds, and had a good impression of Gu Nian, she stepped forward to hold Gu Nian's hand and introduced, "This is Zhang Ying, the third girl from the British Mansion." ”

Zhang Ying looked Gu Nian up and down, and said, "Last time I heard about the competition between you and the third princess, do you really know how to write with two hands?" ”

Gu Nian was also looking at Zhang Ying, listening to her question, she smiled, is it true, the girls present that day all watched it, does this girl really chat?

Before Gu Nian could say anything, Liu Danyang said, "Do you still need to ask?" The girls that day saw it all. ”

Zhang Ying looked at her and said with a smile, "I heard that you were abducted, how did you escape?" Did those people do anything to you? ”

Her voice was not low, and when the people passing by heard the abduction, they all stopped and looked at it.

"I was abducted, those people wanted to sell me and my maid, and we later escaped secretly while the abductors were not paying attention." Gu Nian said lightly.

"Why did they let you escape?" Zhang Ying frowned and asked.

Liu Danyang and Zhang Ying's friendship is okay, I have never seen her so unable to speak before, but today although she looks curious and has an innocent face, the words she says are like knives, and others will stab them wherever they hurt.

"Zhang Ying, I brought you here to meet new friends, what do you mean? What happened to being abducted? My father said, if it wasn't for the five girls last time, there were a lot of children and women to be sold, she did a good deed, why is it so unbearable for you.

By the way, I heard that there is also a girl in your relative's family who has been abducted, if you are curious, you ask her to go. ”

Liu Danyang said unhappily, and at the same time poked Zhang Ying's heart.

Zhang Ying pursed her lips, as if she hadn't heard, "Fifth girl, you're like this, why are you embarrassed to talk to Brother Xuan?" ”

At this moment, Gu Nian suddenly realized, she said that she didn't know Zhang Ying before, and she didn't have any holidays with her, why was she so aggressive.

It turned out to be Zhou Yuxuan's admirer.

Liu Danyang was not happy that Gu Nian, who she admired, was said by Zhang Ying, and pushed Zhang Ying away, "I think the fifth girl is very good, if you feel disgusted, you stay away from us." ”

After speaking, she pulled Gu Nian and left.

Leaving Zhang Ying to stomp her feet behind, "Liu Danyang, you ...... Okay, don't come to me in the future, play with that unclean person......"

Before she finished her words, she only heard a 'snap', she was slapped in the face, and Zhang Ying covered her face and glared at Gu Nian.

Gu Nian stood in front of her, looked at Zhang Ying coldly, and said word by word,

"Miss Zhang, who is not clean, I think you are the one who smells bad, I look up to the sky and the ground, with a clear conscience, you like your cousin, it's your business, you like it, no one stops you."

But on what basis do you slander me?

What happened to the girl who was abducted? Should we die? No, they should live well, this life is earned by their hard work.

They shouldn't be wronged! ”

Gu Nian had an ambition at this moment, she must set up a women's charity hall to take in those women who were kicked out of the family because they were abducted, and she wanted to let them live well, better than anyone else.

That day, Xiao Yue said that she had a lot of money, and she had indeed never been short of money since she was a child, but she really didn't know how much money she had.

Although the eldest princess taught her to be the director of the house, her dowry began to be prepared, and she didn't count how much it was.

She decided to go back tonight and ask the princess that she was going to take part of the dowry to set up a women's charity hall, and she was sure that her grandmother would definitely support her.

Because she had a goal in mind, she naturally didn't bother to pay attention to Zhang Ying's provocation, she pulled Liu Danyang and turned around and left.

But Zhang Ying was willing to be slapped by her, and took Gu Nian's hand, "If you hit someone, you want to leave." ”

Zhang Ying looked at Gu Nian with a smile, and an eerie light flashed in her eyes.

Gu Nian thought that last time Gu Ci watched her get into the carriage like this, after that, her horse was shocked.

She shook off Zhang Ying's hand and was about to leave with her feet, but Zhang Ying rushed over, hit her hard, and pushed her into the lake next to her.

This collision, Zhang Ying exerted all her strength.

She wanted to talk about Gu Nian crashing into the lake and pushing her into the lake.

It's best if she can be drowned, even if she doesn't die, she will also get seriously ill.

As for the consequences of knocking Gu Nian down, she didn't think about it.

She can say that she missed, she can say that she was not careful, it is difficult to really ask her to pay for her life, her father is a British prince, the emperor's right-hand man, her aunt and grandmother are the queen mother, and her mother is also the eldest princess, who is afraid of whom?

It's just that she didn't expect Gu Nian to be on guard for a long time, and this collision failed to knock her to the lake.

Liu Danyang on the side said angrily, "Zhang Ying, what do you want to do?" Ah Nian almost fell into the lake. ”

Liu Danyang roared, and many girls not far away looked over, Zhang Ying's ears were buzzing, it was clear that Gu Nian hit her first, Liu Danyang obviously saw it, but he still said himself.

She pushed Gu Nian hard again, pushed Gu Nian to a stumbling side, and took two steps back before standing firmly.

"Miss Zhang, it was me who was wrong just now, I shouldn't have beaten you, I apologize for my recklessness and you.

But not only did you mock me, but you also slandered me and my cousin...... It's your business that you like your cousin, why drag me into the water? ”

Zhang Ying was mad, and wanted to go up to push Gu Nian, but a majestic voice came from behind her, "Yingying, that's enough." ”

Zhang Ying looked back in disbelief, only to see her grandmother, the eldest princess, the eldest princess of the country, and many other noble ladies standing behind her.

It turned out that there was a commotion here just now, and the people inside listened to it and came out to see what was going on.

It's over, everyone knows that she likes Zhou Yuxuan, this is Zhang Ying's only thought, will everyone think that she doesn't love herself?

She looked at Gu Nian again, this, she did it on purpose, deliberately said it, so that she would be embarrassed in front of everyone.

"Grandmother......" Her arrogance suddenly fell, and the tears fell down in large pieces, "She hit me first." ”

"If you don't talk about her like that, how can Ah Nian beat you." Liu Danyang spoke quickly and shot back.

The British old lady walked in front of Zhang Ying, "The girl's family wants to be virtuous, why do you beat someone if you don't agree?" Apologize to the Gu family girl. ”

Zhang Ying raised her teary eyes and looked at the British old lady, obviously she was thinking wrong, but her grandmother actually asked her to apologize, she froze, and her tears suddenly became even more turbulent.

can only say that Zhang Ying is a pig teammate, and the British duchess is obviously sarcastic about Gu Nian's unvirtuous lady, but Zhang Ying didn't hear it, and thought that the British duchess was scolding her.

If she apologizes at this time, everyone will only think that Gu Nian is wrong, but she doesn't, but she is very strong, "I don't, she beat me." ”

The British old lady wanted to say anything, but Gu Nian stepped forward and saluted her,

"Old lady, I was impulsive just now, I shouldn't have done it, I apologized to Sister Zhang."

"However, please ask my sister to leave some virtue next time......" After speaking, he glanced at Zhang Ying meaningfully.

The eldest princess of the protector walked up and said, "Nian Nian, come here, everyone knows what is right and wrong." Children, where is there no time to stumble. ”

The British duchess returned with a smile, "Yes, the little girl's family has to fight for the victory, this is not good, and you can learn more from the Gu family girl in the future." ”

Liu Danyang nodded on the side, "Ah Nian is indeed a model for the girls, I heard that many people who were rescued last time now want to set up an ancestral hall for Ah Nian." ”

The British old lady's face was pale, today's little girl really doesn't know how to look at her face, she is belittling Gu Wu, can't she see it?

The eldest princess smiled very happily and said, "The little things in your hand, where is it worth setting up an ancestral hall, this ceremony is too heavy, it can't be like this." ”

The ladies on the side praised Gu Nian one after another, and the old lady Yu was also in the crowd, listening to the praise of Gu Nian with a stiff face.

It made her face darken, but it was the eldest princess who wanted to escape, but asked Gu Nian,

"I heard about the abduction of two ears, it seems that you did it with your cousin?" Who it is, but I didn't elaborate.

The eldest princess sighed, "Yes, because I am about the same age, I became jealous." ”

The eldest princess glanced at the crowd with a smile and said, "Did that person get any retribution?" Now it's okay, you have returned to Beijing, and you can protect your niece well in the future. ”

"Who said it wasn't, it's just that I've been wronged and want to be pointed at."

The eldest princess glanced at Gu Nian, "Do you complain?" Will she be forgiven? ”

Gu Nian thought for a while and said,

"It's false to say that you don't complain, I won't forgive her, someone said that you are not good? Why can't you forgive?

I'm not afraid of people saying I'm stingy, I really won't forgive the person who hurt me, it's been like this for many years, whether she admits her mistakes or not, repents or not, it's her business.

The hurt I suffered is really unrewriteable, and I don't forgive her. ”

Gu Nian knew that if she said words of forgiveness at this time, it would definitely make people look up to her, after all, she was complaining with Yide, but she was just not happy.

Because the real Xiao Gu Nian was indeed killed, she would never say the words to forgive the murderer, so what about the real Gu Nian who had already returned to Jiuquan?

This matter may eventually pass with everyone, even if her bad reputation for being abducted will be erased one day, but in Gu Nian, no, she will remember it for a lifetime.

Time has passed, the ice has released the previous suspicions, and the handshake has made peace? Happy ending?

No way!

She will never forgive Gu Ci in her life, and she will be like Gu Ci to collect debts little by little, just like today.

The eldest princess didn't say who caused her to be abducted, but where is the real secret in Beijing? When one knows, there will be a second and a third......

The woman who came to the banquet today and had a lot of gossip, Gu Jia, will become everyone's talking point for a long time in the future.

"Okay." The eldest princess praised her, and she said to the princess protector,

"Auntie, I really like this girl, not only does she look like me, but even her temperament is my temper, she almost hurt someone, if she is so frivolous, isn't the wicked in the world getting a big bargain? That's how it should be! ”

The Protector Princess smiled and said, "This kid is hard-mouthed and soft-hearted. ”

"As long as you have an upright heart, you are a good girl, and I like this." Princess Celestia laughed.

Gu Ci was originally grounded, after she retired from the marquis of Changchun's family, she was bound to find another family affair, the eldest princess finally posted to the Gu family, she begged Mrs. Yu to take her out to show her face.

But she didn't expect it to become like this, she stood in the crowd, and the people on the side were looking at her, as if she was looking at a killer, feeling like she had become a rat in the gutter, and like some other dirty thing, she couldn't see people, she shouldn't see people, but she was thrown into the crowd, stripped of her clothes, and pointed at thousands of people.

At this moment, Gu Ci finally understood what she had done, this was the first time Gu Ci knew that she was such a bad person.

She couldn't take it.

She can't take it!

The feeling of being displayed in front of people is terrifying.

She couldn't think of anything, maybe she had said before that she didn't have a face to see people or something, but no more than this time she felt strongly, she wanted to tear off her face, she wanted to get out of here, get out of here!

She's going to hide.

She covered her face and rushed out, just wanting to get away as quickly as possible.

Old Madam Yu saw her screaming and rushed out, and she was caught off guard, she finally came back to her senses, and said apologetically to the eldest princess, "This kid, I don't know what's wrong, why don't you go and see?" ”

She instructed the maid on the side, and then saluted the eldest princess, "Then I will retire first." ”

After speaking, he didn't care what others thought, and hurriedly walked out.

The eldest princess of the protector saw the embarrassed back, and the corners of her lips hooked up a smile, this is just the beginning.

However, she glanced at the eldest princess vaguely, and didn't understand why the eldest princess was so helpful, it was definitely not because she liked to miss it.

The British duchess also pulled Zhang Ying to say goodbye to the eldest princess.

The British Mansion and the eldest princess of the protector can be regarded as a small feud.

*

When he came back from the eldest princess's mansion, as soon as Gu Nian entered the courtyard, he saw A Jing who was left to take care of the house and said to Gu Nian with a smile, "Girl, just now the prince sent someone to send a pair of sparrows over, saying that the girl will relieve her boredom." ”

After speaking, he pointed to the bottom of the corridor.

Gu Nian looked over, it was a pair of colorful sparrows, chirping, and the deserted yard suddenly became a lot more lively.

She teased the bird, Zhou Yuxuan is really heartfelt, and she works hard, trying to make her happy, and trying to make up for the harm that Mrs. An Yuanhou did to her.

Whether he was in the Hou Mansion or in the academy, he sent a lot of things over and on, not to mention how valuable, it was indeed rare to be delicate and careful.

It seems to be used to tell his friendship with these things.

There was a smile on the corner of her lips, and she was in a very happy mood, she really didn't have Zhou Yuxuan's thoughts, and she was willing to spend time thinking about so many things to send over, she instructed Ah Jing,

"You turn over some fabric, I want to make a purse."

When Ah Jing heard this, of course he knew that Gu Nian was going to make a purse for Zhou Yuxuan, and he immediately went to turn over the fabric happily, and Astragalus stood aside with his hands down, his eyes flashing slightly.

"Girl, Miss Xu is here......" There was a little maid outside who reported through the door.

Gu Nian was teasing the bird, and his cheerful expression became indifferent a little, "Please come in." ”

Last time, Xu Jiao came to Gu Nian's room, but at that time, her whole body and mind were on Zhou Yuxuan's body, so she didn't care about visiting, and when she walked in again today, she felt that Gu Nian's room was really gorgeous.

She pursed her lips and said to Gu Nian, "Sister Nian, is it fun to go to the Eldest Princess's Mansion today?" She looked at Gu Nian with envy.

Gu Nian smiled, nodded, and said, "It's okay." ”

Xu Jiao paused, Gu Nian's attitude was lukewarm, very alienated.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, but they were a little cold......

Xu Jiao was a little uncomfortable, she looked at the little bird that was lifted on the table by Gu Nian, and said proudly, "Is this little bird fun?" I chose it with my cousin. ”

Gu Nian's hand paused for a moment, and his eyes fell on Xu Jiao's body, she should be seventeen or eighteen, why hasn't she married yet?

If there is no suitable family, although the Xu family is not a high-level family, it is not a small family, and they should have already married at this age.

She thought of Zhou Yuxuan, could it be that Xu Jiao was still waiting for Zhou Yuxuan? Or is the Xu family waiting?

It is clear that she and Zhou Yuxuan already have a marriage contract, although it is said that they have not changed their posts, it is impossible for the Xu family not to know.

It can't be said that the Xu family still wants to send Xu Jiao in as a concubine, right?

The bird she and Zhou Yuxuan went to choose together? Didn't Zhou Yuxuan go to Dongshan College?

Xu Jiao stayed for a while, and saw that Gu Nian was lukewarm, so she hurriedly said goodbye and left.

*

Since Xiao Yue met Zhou Yuxuan in Gu Nian, he wanted to meet Zhou Yuxuan more and more.

He didn't understand how a white-faced scholar who was powerless could make Gu Nian like him more than him. When you are a rival in love, you must meet in person to rest assured.

On this day, he finally found a chance.

Zhou Yuxuan Cong Dongshan Academy went home, and when he passed the mouth of the alley, someone suddenly stopped him.

The sky was already dark, and the alley was a little dark, and he couldn't see each other's faces clearly, but looking at the body shape and accent, it wasn't something he knew.

"You are?" Zhou Yuxuan was puzzled.

Xiao Yue let out a 'hehe', shook the folding fan and walked out of the shadows, and said lazily, "I'm looking for you to talk." ”

Walking to the light, Zhou Yuxuan saw Xiao Yue's face clearly. Long and jade, very handsome, dressed as a scholar, similar to the one on his body, just looking at the appearance, can definitely fascinate a large number of girls, but when he meets his eyes, Zhou Yuxuan wants to retreat a little.

It's dangerous, like a leopard smelling blood, ready to move, although the other party has a smile on his face, but it makes people inexplicably shudder.

"In the next week Yuxuan, I don't know what Brother Tai is?" After Zhou Yuxuan saw the salute, he was puzzled.

He usually has no enemies, and it can even be said that because of his personality, he is in the capital, and the popularity of the academy is still good, although the other party is dressed as a scholar, he is not a student.

Extravagance, conversation, and demeanor all show that this person is not a simple student.

"That's what I'm looking for." Xiao Yue said, he walked slowly to Zhou Yuxuan with his hands behind his back, looked him up and down, and said, "The princess of the protector has a good eye, she looks like a dog, and she is a good son-in-law and a good seedling." ”

Zhou Yuxuan frowned when he heard this, why did this sound so awkward, it seemed to be a compliment, and it seemed to be a belittlement, but he smiled, "I don't know what Your Excellency is looking for me?" ”

"You put the family business away!" Xiao Yue said, paused for a moment, "There are so many famous ladies in the capital, what is much better than Gu Nian is that who do you fancie, I will help you ask for marriage." ”

Zhou Yuxuan's eyes were very cold when he looked at Xiao Yue,

"I only have a crush on my cousin, I don't know who you are? There are so many famous ladies in the capital, what are you doing to ask me to withdraw from the marriage? You can find it yourself. ”

"Xiao Yue."

Zhou Yuxuan's face changed slightly, there are very few people in the capital who know the name Xiao Yue, but even fewer people have really seen Xiao Yue, and all that is circulating outside is Xiao Yue's bad reputation.

The prince who is not a prince is a murderer.

But Zhou Yuxuan was not afraid of her, "Should you be called King Jin or the Nine Emperors?" It's just that my cousin and I have decided to be married. ”

"I'm going to marry Gu Nian." Xiao Yue said toughly.

Zhou Yuxuan sneered, "I'll say it again, my marriage with my cousin has already been decided." ”

"I'm not talking to you, I'm informing you. I didn't let the emperor give a direct order, I was giving you face, and I didn't want to be embarrassed. ”

"If you really don't want to embarrass your cousin, how can the prince be so aggressive? Our family affairs are set by our elders, if you force your will, what will your cousin do in the future? How do you let her gain a foothold in the capital? She's different from you, she still has to go out to socialize, and she has to socialize with people. ”

Zhou Yuxuan said coldly.

Xiao Yue touched his chin, "That's why I let you go to withdraw from your family!" Your mother doesn't like her anyway. ”

"Then your mother will like her?" Zhou Yuxuan asked without answering.

"I met Niannian and I when we were young, and she said she wanted to marry me." Xiao Yue smiled mysteriously.

Zhou Yuxuan felt more and more that Xiao Yue was talking nonsense, and he mocked, "Nian Nian was in Jinling when he was a child, and you were in the capital, how could the two of you meet?" Not to mention fairy tales.

You don't have to sow discord, my cousin and I are the order of our parents, the matchmaker's words, you want to force me to let go, it's not so easy. ”

Xiao Yue sneered and said, "Don't worry, I will let you go willingly right away." That's all there is to it. ”

After speaking, as if he didn't bother to talk to Zhou Yuxuan anymore, he jumped up and disappeared.

Zhou Yuxuan looked at him and left, his face was pale, no one could see it, and his palm was dripping blood.

When he returned to the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion, he first went to the eldest princess of the country to ask for peace, and it happened that Gu Nian was also there.

After he finished saluting, he looked at Gu Nian, his eyes contained countless intimacy, and he looked at Gu Nian quietly.

"Cousin, what's wrong with your hand?" Gu Nian's eyes were sharp, and when he saw that there was faint blood on Zhou Yuxuan's hand, he hurriedly stepped forward and opened his hand to look.

There was blurred blood in her palms, so she hurriedly asked the maid to bring clean water, help scrub it, and then put on gold sore medicine and wrapped it in gauze.

After this series of actions, Zhou Yuxuan didn't speak, but quietly let Gu Nian take care of it.

"How did you get hurt?" After the bandaging was done, the princess asked with concern.

Zhou Yuxuan rubbed the gauze for a while and said, "The tea cup in my hand was accidentally broken, it's okay, a little wound." ”

The eldest princess was shocked when she heard this, and asked Mama Su to open the warehouse and change all the things in Zhou Yuxuan's yard.

"Grandmother, I have something to ask you."

"You say."

"I want to set a wedding date with my cousin as soon as possible, my cousin is seventeen this year, eighteen next year, and now the New Year is approaching, and I can't catch up, otherwise the old man often says, if you have money or not, marry a daughter-in-law and go home for the New Year?"

At the end, he smiled softly and looked at Gu Nian with a pair of eyes.

"Grandmother definitely wants you to get married quickly, but what are you going to do with your mother?" The eldest princess asked.

Zhou Yuxuan said, "I will try my best to convince my mother, my mother loves me the most, and she must be subject to my wishes, and I promise you that my grandson will not let my cousin suffer a trace of grievance." ”

The eldest princess didn't believe it, if it was a month ago, maybe she would be happy to set a wedding date for the two of them, but now, she hesitated.

Zhou Yuxuan couldn't see his grandmother's hesitation, but now he just wanted to set a wedding date quickly, marry his cousin close to the door, and become his own person, so that his heart could be implemented.

The more people want to do something, the more they want to get something, there will always be this or that kind of obstruction.

Although Mrs. An Yuanhou stayed in the small Buddha hall, Xu Jiao continued to live in the Anyuan Marquis Mansion, and the most she did was to accompany Mrs. An Yuanhou to recite Buddhism.

Although Zhou Yuxuan did not get an exact affirmation from the eldest princess of the protector, she said that she would consider it.

It was already late, and the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion was silent, and after he came out of the courtyard of the eldest princess of the protector, he thought about it, and slightly quickened his pace towards the small courtyard on the edge of the garden.

When he went to the gate of the courtyard, he saw that the lights were still on inside, Mrs. An Yuanhou was not sleeping, and there was a faint sound of knocking on wooden fish.

He pushed the door and went in, and saw that Mrs. An Yuanhou was kneeling on the couch, knocking on the wooden fish, accompanied by two maids on the side, and Xu Jiao was not there.

Seeing Zhou Yuxuan come in, An Yuanhou's wife Xu Shi showed joy, and hurriedly put down the things in her hand and got up to greet him.

"Mother, it's late at night, why don't you rest?"

Mrs. An Yuanhou looked at her son, she gave birth to two daughters and a son, her daughters were not close to her, and her son was a little better than her daughter, "My mother knew that she had done wrong, so she could only sincerely ask for forgiveness in front of the Buddha." ”

When she said it, her face was full of repentance, and there was a hint of melancholy in her eyes.

Zhou Yuxuan was slightly stunned, and at the same time happy, his heart slowly softened, and his expression was gentle,

"The body is also very important, and I am waiting for you to help me take care of the child. In the future, your son will often come to visit you. Miss her very well, and will definitely serve you as your own mother. ”

Mrs. An Yuanhou smiled and nodded slightly, "I also believe that you will never be wrong when you look at people." She took out a set of folded undergarments from the side,

"This is what I personally made for you during this time, you take it back and try to see if it fits, if it doesn't fit, tell me, and I'll change it for you."

Zhou Yuxuan hurriedly took it, "These have their own subordinates to do, you better rest more." ”

"When I was a child, I made you with clothes, but now that people are old, they are useless." Mrs. An Yuanhou said wistfully.

Zhou Yuxuan held his clothes and looked at the hourglass, it was already late, so he said goodbye to Mrs. An Yuanhou.

"I've already had someone go get me some snacks just now, there's your favorite almond soup, you can drink it and go back." Mrs. An Yuanhou said lovingly.

Zhou Yuxuan thought about it, and when he came back, he first ran into Xiao Yue, and then went to the eldest princess of the protector, his mental consumption was too great, and he was indeed a little hungry.

So, he put down the clothes in his hand, and when the next person brought them in, he took them, bowed his head and ate them quickly.

"Is it delicious?"

Zhou Yuxuan put down the bowl, nodded at Mrs. Shang'anyuan's loving and expectant gaze, and said with a smile, "It's delicious." ”

"Of course it's delicious, but it's what you loved when you were a kid. Okay, go back, you have to come and talk to your mother often in the future, as for Gu Nian, whatever you say, listen to you. ”

Zhou Yuxuan bowed to Mrs. An Yuanhou.

Mrs. An Yuanhou hurriedly helped him up, "I'm just your son, I really can't wait to show you." Go back. ”

Zhou Yuxuan nodded, "It's late at night, mother, you should rest early." ”

Mrs. An Yuanhou smiled and watched him leave.

As soon as Zhou Yuxuan left, Xu Jiao came out of another room, "Auntie." ”

Mrs. An Yuanhou took Xu Jiao's hand lovingly, "What you said is really useful, Xuan'er can't come hard, now that he has just left, it is just right for you to catch up." ”

Xu Jiao showed a shy look, her face was red, "Auntie, then I'll go." ”

Mrs. An Yuanhou nodded and pushed Xu Jiao out of the door.

After Zhou Yuxuan came out, he didn't give the clothes given to him by Mrs. An Yuanhou to the little guy on the side, but kept them in his hands.

His yard was about to pass through the small garden, an open place, as soon as the cold wind blew, Zhou Yuxuan suddenly felt a chill, he shivered, but deep down he felt a fire.

This cold wind did not make him feel cold, but felt comfortable, and he couldn't help but want to take off his thick clothes outside.

His breathing also deepened, and the entourage on the side sensed his intention and stepped forward to support him, "Shizi, are you uncomfortable?" ”

Coincidentally, there was a sound of footsteps from behind, "Cousin...... Cousin...... Wait for me ......"
