215, there is a mother and a daughter

Although Zhou Yuxuan has no real position in the court, he has a special status, and everyone around the emperor knows it.

After he came back this time, he was going to travel again soon, and he was extremely busy recently, not only his own affairs, but also the affairs of the aunt of Jingning County Lord, and he also wanted to do his part.

I went out early in the morning, and I was busy until the evening, and after going to the eldest princess of the country to ask for peace, I went back to my yard.

When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the little maid who stayed at home greeted him, and he raised his foot and was about to enter the courtyard gate, when he saw the little maid pointing to the side, and followed his gesture to look, only then did he notice a slightly thin figure standing in the corner.

With just one glance, he could recognize the familiar figure, and his steps felt as if he had been nailed to the ground.

"Shizi." The little guy said, "I was standing there when it was just dark, and the little one asked her to come in and wait, but she didn't come in, saying that it was not in accordance with the rules......"

The little guy was still chattering, Zhou Yuxuan had already strode over to the figure and stood still, and lowered his voice, "Why are you standing here?" ”

The person waiting for him was Bai Feng.

Since arguing in the study that day, Zhou Yuxuan never let go of his mouth and left him behind, and insisted that after his affairs were done, he would send Bai Feng back to his home in Lingnan.

For so many days, the two had not seen each other.

Bai Feng looked at the handsome man in front of him in a daze, bit his lower lip, and then said softly, "I'm looking for you, I have something to say." ”

Zhou Yuxuan paused, since he wanted to cut off Bai Feng's feelings for him, he naturally couldn't be soft-hearted at this time, so he didn't bring Bai Feng into the courtyard, but took her to the light to talk.

Bai Feng didn't speak, and Zhou Yuxuan saw that her eyes were slightly sunken, and her eye circles were slightly blue, as if she hadn't rested well.

He hesitated, and couldn't help but speak, "You...... Didn't sleep well? ”

He said this because he remembered that when the two of them went through those turmoil, and later after they were safe, she was like this for a while.

Bai Feng raised his head and smiled, "It's okay, it's just that I think of leaving the capital, and I'm a little reluctant." I don't know when you're going to get things done, so please let me know in advance.

When the time comes, I'll ask Nian Nian to take me to have a good walk around the capital......"

Speaking of this, she smiled embarrassedly again, "I was wrong again, women in the Central Plains can't show their heads everywhere." ”

He looked at her, and the usual coldness between his eyebrows involuntarily disappeared, replaced by a trace of pity in his eyes that could not be concealed.

"Before sending you back, I will take you to the capital for a walk, but you can go to some jewelry shops and rouge cloth stores with Niannian to have a look.

It's not really that the door doesn't go out, the second door doesn't step, if you want to, you can also let Nian Nian take you to the banquets of each family to play. ”

Bai Feng shook his head, "Those banquets are very boring, there are a hundred pits waiting for you in one sentence, I'm too stupid to parry."

I kind of know why you don't like me?

I'm not as good as those ladies in the capital at all, my favorite is to nourish poisons, but they are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and their brains are still spinning fast......"

The more Bai Feng talked, the more aggrieved he became, and the more he spoke, the quieter his voice became.

Zhou Yuxuan put his hand on his forehead and stroked it, and the hand behind his back moved unconsciously, and said, "You are a good girl, you don't have to belittle yourself because of me."

You're not like those ladies. ”

Bai Feng raised her head and looked at Zhou Yuxuan, her eyes brighter than the light reflected by the lantern under the door.

"I'm a good girl, why don't you like it?"

"White Phoenix." He interrupted her words and said slowly, "I told you that I have a person in my heart, and I can't let go of her for the time being.

At this time, I said that I like you, that is an insult to you, and at the same time, I will also be an emotional liar.

I'm for your good, understand? ”

As he spoke, she kept laughing and staring at him until he was finally out of words and could no longer speak.

She gradually smiled and said, "I came here to tell you that I like you and I won't take it back, and I won't like others."

Like you is my thing, it has nothing to do with you, you can accept it or not.

However, I want to tell you that I will wait for you, for the person in your heart to let go, no matter how long, will wait. ”

Zhou Yuxuan looked at her in surprise, although he had heard her warm confession, he thought that he had spoken very hard in the study that day.

Unexpectedly, her attitude is even tougher now, and she speaks so loudly that she can't tolerate his refusal.

In the past, he was a weak scholar, but later, he traveled all over the world, experienced wars, even encountered the most vicious pirates, encountered tragic pursuits, and even had the experience of escaping death in a thousand moments.

He is also a person with a little experience, but at this moment, the woman with his eyes shining like stars, crimson on his face, and tough words in front of him has a moment of poor words.

He looked at her for a while, smiled helplessly, avoided her gaze, and said in a low voice,

"Bai Feng, it is my Zhou Yuxuan's third life to be loved by you, but I must not let you enjoy it, how can I mistake your youth.

You treat me now only because I am different from the man you have seen, so you find it new.

In the future, you will understand how ridiculous your thoughts are now.

Bai Feng, you have a delicate heart, if you think about it carefully, you will understand that what I said is for your good. ”

Bai Feng looked at him, biting her lip tightly, she tilted her head, and after a while, said, "I don't like to hear what you say, do you say that I like you because I think you are novel?"

You're wrong, I haven't seen many men, but I can tell what likes and what novelty.

In my eyes, you are a great husband who stands up to the sky, we have experienced life and death together, I admire you and want to be with you for the rest of my life.

If it's because I'm Miao, you're a nobleman in the capital.

Originally, the Miao people were in the land of Dongli, although they have been independent for so many years, but as long as the Miao people are still in the land of Dongli for a day, they are the people of Dongli country.

How are we different? ”

When Zhou Yuxuan heard this, he closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened his eyes, his eyes were dark, like this deep night sky, "It's just that I have no heart for you, how can I receive your thousands of loves?"

I, Zhou Yuxuan, only wish to travel all over the world and make contributions in this life, and besides, there is no other thought. ”

Bai Feng stared at him, half a sound, a bleak smile gradually appeared on his lips, looked at him and muttered, "No heart...... What an unintentional ...... Zhou Yuxuan, count you ruthlessly......"

He avoided her gaze and said no more.

"The matter of sending you back to Lingnan, as I said, is a foregone conclusion, and there will be no change." In the end, he just gritted his teeth and said this, as if forgetting that this was his own yard, and turned and hurried away, completely ignoring the cries of the little man behind him.

Bai Feng stood there in a daze, staring at his back as he left in a hurry, his emaciated figure did not move for a long time.

"It's hard to memorize these things, but I still can't move him."

……

Although the county lord of Jingning had promised Gu Shi'an to go to Suwangfu, because she had only come back a few days ago, she still wanted to accompany the eldest princess more, so she did not move to Suwangfu for a while.

However, after Gu Nian ran back and forth for a few days, he was ordered not to continue running, and only let An An take care of Xiao Yue at home.

Zhang Chunzi is still in the frontier and has not returned, and for the time being, he can't help the county lord of Jingning see if the scar on his face can be healed, or Qingye reminded him, why don't you let Bai Feng take a look.

Gu Nian patted his head at this time, "Yes, I can let Bai Feng show my mother first." ”

However, she thought that after Bai Feng and Zhou Yuxuan failed to talk twice, they locked the door and didn't come out, and she couldn't be sure if she was willing to show her mother's injuries.

However, before talking to Bai Feng, Gu Nian first went to a banquet, which was the full moon banquet of the grandson of the prince of Qijun.

Princess Qijun is a good person, and Gu Nian can talk to her after meeting her a few times, and she didn't shirk after receiving the post.

Since the news of the return of the county lord of Jingning came out, when socializing, Gu Nian inevitably encountered an embarrassing thing, that is, everyone who met her would inquire about the county lord of Jingning.

For the well-intentioned, Gu Nian would answer a few words, and for the ill-intentioned, she directly ignored it.

Anyway, her identity and Xiao Yue's position in the emperor, those who were ignored by her could only keep their anger in their hearts.

However, fortunately, the general banquet will never sit together and chat all the time, and after chatting for a while, he will go to the theater or visit the garden, which can also make Gu Nian not have to stay with those people all the time.

There was a lot of babbling on the stage, and the people in the audience listened to it like they were fascinated, but Gu Nian didn't like to listen to the drama very much, and after listening to it for a while, he felt a little noisy and his ears hurt.

She stood up and went into the garden to get some air.

The garden of the palace of Qijun is well repaired, with strange flowers and plants, and it is lush.

If the flowers bloom well, there will naturally be more people watching, and you can hear laughter and laughter from a distance, it sounds like a little girl is playing, and after thinking about it, Gu Nian took Aoba to the other side.

She really wants to go over, and those little girls will be uncomfortable when they see her.

Just walked out a few steps, a group of people came over under the corridor, the one led by Gu Nian looked a little familiar, and she didn't want to stare at people directly, she hooked her lips, thinking that it would be okay to pass by.

Unexpectedly, when the woman passed by, her body shook, and she thought about Gu Nian upside down.

Gu Nian was stunned, subconsciously reached out to hold it, the two hugged each other, and took a few steps back in unison, and Qingye supported Gu Nian in the back, and then froze.

The woman's face turned red and full of embarrassment, and she said, "Thank you, Princess Jin." ”

Gu Nian nodded casually, and was about to turn around and walk away, when he saw the woman biting her lower lip, and seemed to cry out with great difficulty, "Princess Jin, please stay......"

Gu Nian stopped and frowned at the woman.

Aoba whispered behind Gu Nian, "Princess, this is the princess of the Zhongyi Palace...... Surname Chen ......"

Gu Nian suddenly realized this, no wonder it was familiar, wasn't it the woman who had a brain convulsion in the Zhongyi Palace's mansion last time?

Later, the one who was exposed by Bai Feng as having a fake pregnancy, but this attitude was ...... It seems a little strange......

The princess of the Zhongyi Wang, Chen Shi, pursed her lips, "Who am I, you know...... her face was a little red.

Gu Nian raised his eyebrows and nodded.

The two looked at each other awkwardly for a while, but Gu Nian spoke first, "If the princess is fine, then I will leave first." ”

Chen was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously stopped her, "Princess, wait a minute." She took a few steps forward without hurrying, and a glance passed, and the person behind her unconsciously took a few steps back.

Gu Nian said, "Is there something wrong with the princess?" ”

Chen was a little speechless, she subconsciously stopped Gu Nian, and she didn't know what to say for a while, so she said, "Thank you Princess for your help just now." ”

Gu Nian nodded and said, "With a gesture, the princess is polite." ”

She didn't remember who it was for a while, otherwise she really didn't dare to reach out to help, what if she helped out a good guy and was falsely accused?

Chen saw her indifferent, as if treating ordinary people, thinking of the embarrassment and embarrassment in the palace last time, she was born in a high-ranking family, she was loved by her parents since she was a child, and it was smooth sailing before she got married.

That day, she would say those words, and she was indeed influenced by Guan Jinghe to say them.

But she later knew what the real thing was, and she also knew that she did something wrong that day, so she slowly looked and said,

"Last time I was in the palace, what I said was a little more ugly, and I hope the princess doesn't mind."

Gu Nian's expression was faint, "As long as the princess pays more attention to it next time she speaks." ”

Chen was a little embarrassed, listening to her so bluntly let her pay attention next time, her face couldn't help but turn a little red, and her heart swelled up, and the words came as soon as she opened her mouth,

"I was deceived into saying the wrong thing, but if you hadn't brought that woman home, how could it have ......?"

Gu Nian didn't want to explain anything about this matter, she sighed, raised her eyes and said, "Since you said this, then let's talk about it."

I'm only meeting you for the second time this time, and I don't need to explain anything to anyone if I take anyone back to the house or not.

It's not that bringing a woman home is our prince's woman.

Moreover, your princess was also there that day, and I know what was going on, and I don't know who you listened to and said those words to me, but I tell you, people still think simpler, and if you hear too many dirty things, you will become dirty. ”

This is a disguised mockery of her, who dares to listen to what anyone says, but does not dare to listen to the truth.

Chen's lips pursed a thin line, endured it for a while, and said, "I ...... it because I listened to the words of the cousin of the Guan family," and after a pause, she said with difficulty, "In short, I was wrong, and I won't be in the future." ”

"Wait until two days later, I will say to my mother-in-law that I will hold a banquet at home and apologize to you."

Gu Nian smiled, "That's not necessary, it's not a life-and-death feud, you also misheard slander, it's okay, I'll leave first." ”

Chen glanced at Gu Nian, and saw that she was standing there so lightly, her expression was not unassuming, but she revealed a kind of calmness from her bones, and she looked even more picturesque, and the life in the back house did not cover her.

On that day, her mother-in-law took Guan Jinghe to Izumo Temple, and when she came back, Guan Jinghe came to her to cry, saying that Zhou Yuxuan had brought a woman back, and that she had been taken back by Princess Jin.

At first, she was not moved by her, but later, the more Guan Jinghe cried, the more pitiful she became, and she couldn't bear it.

Unexpectedly, Guan Jinghe actually took advantage of her unbearableness to make her do such a stupid thing.

After that day, not only her mother-in-law reprimanded her, but even her mother-in-law also reprimanded her.

told her the awesome story again, and also made her realize that she was being used by someone.

She looked complicated, looked at her again in a trance, and said, "Okay, it's not bad for one meal or two meals, please give me more advice in the future." “

Gu Nian smiled and said, "It's nothing, just talk about it." ”

After saying that, she said goodbye to Chen, and as she walked, she thought that this Chen was a wonderful person.

Sure enough, people still have to get along and understand each other, and sometimes what you see and hear is not necessarily true.

The last time she was so aggressive in the Zhongyi Palace, who would have thought that she would be taken advantage of?

However, what about the Chen family, the relationship with her is not very big, after all, there will not be many implications between them.

Chen saw that Gu Nian was leaving, but he didn't follow, and the two walked in two directions.

Gu Nian didn't go back, she didn't want to go back to listen to the lingering drama, it was better to enjoy the flowers in the yard, there were so many flowers in such a big garden, it would be a waste if she didn't watch it.

She stood under a pomegranate tree on the side of the rockery, the pomegranate flowers were blooming brightly, and the large clusters of flowers were clustered together, and the branches were bent.

Thinking that the people of the Qijun royal family are still very prosperous, perhaps, the reason why this pomegranate tree is good?

She was just about to turn around and joke with Aoba about planting a pomegranate tree in Suiyuan Hall, when she heard a voice coming from there,

“…… I saw Princess Jin just now, and she looked very happy, and this Jingning County Lord didn't know what the reason was, and she was promoted by the emperor like this......"

"Didn't you say blessings? Instead of the first emperor, I went to live in the temple for so many years......"

"Are you stupid? If you really go to the temple to pray for blessings, the Marquis of Anyuan Mansion still won't say it? That's a matter of prestige, who knows if you really went to the temple?

Maybe someone abducted somewhere, and now I'm back there.

If there is really a mother, there must be a daughter, didn't the princess of Jin also be abducted at the beginning......"

Whether it is the content of the speech or the tone of the voice, Gu Nian, who can hear it clearly, looked up at the rockery in front of him, smiled slightly, and walked out.

She knows that the news of her mother's return home will not stop in a short time, and there will be all kinds of conjectures, even if she doesn't hear it, she has to pretend that she didn't hear it, that's not her style.

"Ouch, it's really a virtue of the mother and daughter, both of them are confused by their husbands, King Jin won't talk about it, King Su, but he has been a bachelor for so many years.

If he was really abducted, this life would be hard enough, and I don't know if King Su has that life to enjoy happiness......" The woman who turned her back to Gu Nian was still chattering, and after a long time, she found that the companion opposite her was pale, and her eyes were blinking as if they were cramping.

Suddenly, her heart chuckled, and her face couldn't help but turn white, only to see her slowly turn her head, and saw Gu Nianqiao standing next to the rockery, looking at her in pairs.

Her heart was beating like a drum, as if it was about to pop out of her throat, and she stumbled, "Jin...... Advance...... Princess Jin ......"

Gu Nian smiled, his eyebrows and eyes were sharp, "Although the two ladies can rest assured, my father will definitely be able to afford it, my mother has been in front of the Buddha for so many years, more or less stained with Buddha spirit, and it will definitely be blessed in the future, the two ladies said yes?" ”

The woman who was about to cramp with blinking eyes hurriedly said, "What Princess Jin said is extremely true, what she said is extremely ......."

The woman who had turned her back to Gu Nian before was now like her tongue had been taken away by a cat, and she couldn't say a word, so she could only look at Gu Nian with her eyes stunned and frightened.

This lady, Gu Nian has seen, is the younger sister of Xiao Yue's second aunt, surnamed Hong. After the death of the old concubine, because of the framing of Xiao Yue back then, the second room never had any contact with the palace, and the only time there was an intersection was when the ancestors were incensed during the New Year, and the second uncle would appear.

This Mrs. Hong actually complained about Gu Nian and Xiao Yue, thinking that they drove the second room away.

If Xiao Yue and they were not so favored by the emperor, it would be okay, but they were celebrities in front of the emperor, and when they saw Gu Nian in his county palace today, they couldn't help but be unable to suppress the fire and vented, where did they think that they would be so unlucky, and the bad words of people were listened to by the parties.

At this moment, Mrs. Hong only felt like her heart was being grabbed by a hand, and she couldn't even breathe smoothly, what should she do?

Who doesn't talk about people behind their backs? Who's behind no one's back? But the person behind his back was listened to by the person concerned, which was embarrassing.

The embarrassed Mrs. Hong couldn't wait to dig a crack in the tunnel and bury herself, her lips opened and closed several times, and she didn't know what to say, so she could only blush and stand in place helplessly.

Talking with her was Mrs. Jiang, who was the next member of the Jiang family, Empress Jiang's mother's family, and married to the secretary of the criminal department, so she was qualified to come to the palace of the county to participate in the banquet.

She pulled the corner of Mrs. Hong's clothes, which would make her intestines blue with remorse, why did she accompany Mrs. Hong out to talk.

Forget it, why do you still listen to her nonsense, fortunately, she didn't follow Mrs. Hong to talk nonsense, and she wouldn't care too much about coming to Princess Jin, but it was inevitable that she would have to respond.

Whether it is the King of Jin, or the King of Su, or even the eldest princess who protects the country, now they can speak in front of the emperor, especially the King of Jin, who is the emperor's ironcore, die-hard, and holds the princess of Jin in the palm of his hand, offending the princess of Jin is undoubtedly offending a string of people.

Mrs. Jiang's heart beat like thunder, seeing that Mrs. Hong was silent, she was stupid, and she secretly hated in her heart, she was so neat just now, why did she hold a saw-mouth gourd?

Such a person will have to stay away in the future.

"Princess Jin forgives her sins, she has never spoken four or six, she is all verbal and unintentional, and the princess should not be like her." Mrs. Jiang unkindly took herself out first, anyway, in fact, she didn't say anything, she didn't want to be disliked with Mrs. Hong.

Mrs. Hong's eyes were about to pop out, and she couldn't believe that she was so low-minded and belittled her.

Mrs. Jiang still has an unclear appearance, her liver hurts, Mrs. Hong is married well, and she will give birth, and she is offered in her husband's house, so she is a little fluttering, thinking that she can dare to do anything.

In the end, the two still have some friendship, Mrs. Jiang pulled Mrs. Hong's sleeve and motioned her to quickly bow her head, it is better to be embarrassed now than to turn back to King Jin to clean them up, that is not a good talker.

100,000 prisoners of war can be killed if they say they will be killed, even if they were in the capital before, they would kill people if they wanted to.

Gu Nian's eyebrows were raised high, and his eyes looked at Mrs. Hong, whose face was pale and pale.
