Before returning to the palace to attend the palace banquet, he saw Gu Minlan again.

Compared with the tall appearance of the original family girl, now she is full of sharpness, but she is as tired as frost.

"I'll follow you."

Before I got into the carriage, I looked at her and said.

If it was the original Gu Minlan, she would have been ridiculed a long time ago, and all the things she learned in the previous decades were used in arguing with others.

But now it's very quiet, probably after I threw it into the water, and it became so silent.

It's like—

Now the silent Gu Mansion is the same.

"The eldest princess has now returned to her original status of honor, and her dignity is so noble that no one can compare, why do you have to hold on to the Gu Mansion?"

Gu Minlan stopped me, and although her tone was calm, she couldn't hide the resentment flowing in it.

There is no doubt that she hates me.

"What is Gu Mansion?" I glanced at her proudly, "And, what are you?" ”

"Even if the Gu Mansion is dilapidated and has disappeared incognito, what does it have to do with this palace? Don't you forget, the person who was able to hold it with one hand at the beginning, now can naturally protect it with one hand, why bother to beg me? ”

I got into the carriage, but Gu Minlan was still standing in place, as if she was calming her breath, gritted her teeth and asked, "Don't you hate?" ”

I hear this question twice in one day.

Everyone asked me if I hated it, and everyone thought that I deserved to live in the muddy, after all, I had only seen the coffin, after all, I was buried today.

"If you don't pull me Gu Fu now, sooner or later you will be like this."

Gu Minlan was still cautious and cautious, and with enough resentment, she said indignantly.

I just added fuel to the flames of Gu Fu's affairs, and I achieved the desired effect, the wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and even if I didn't do the rest, someone would make up for it.

And what gave it this face was Pei Yousheng's deliberate connivance at the beginning.

After more than ten years of connivance, he held Gu Fu to a high position, held it to a height that everyone resented, and then left it alone, let it be torn apart, and let it fend for itself.

This game is a dead end, a long-planned dead end, even if I don't make a move, it will be a matter of time.

I pressed Lu Yu's arm, blocking her from rolling up her sleeves and going down to teach Gu Minlan a lesson, opened the curtain, and said to Gu Minlan: "It's strange that Gu Fu is too ambitious, and his hand is too long." ”

If it weren't for Gu Fu's obstruction, my brother would not have fallen into this, he once proudly told me that he was honored to return to his hometown, but the body came back first, how ridiculous.

Then there was a suppressed cry in my ears, full of unwillingness.

The carriage moved forward slowly.

Lu Yu was still angry, "She still has resentment, princess, you are just too soft-hearted, just start ruthlessly, let Gu Fu's blood debt be repaid, isn't it good?" ”

"Wouldn't it be better to keep it and let the people of the Gu Mansion watch it fall step by step from a high position to the point of a rat crossing the street?" I twisted the Buddha beads in my hand, and I was in a trance.

Thirteen was waiting there early, and when he saw me, he happily threw himself into my arms, rubbed his head vigorously in my arms, and his voice was a little delicate.

"Sister, sister."

Thirteen kept calling me, looking up like a puppy begging for praise, and the white tiger, like her, kept rolling at my feet.

"I miss you, sister, I've been making rapid progress recently, and my husband has praised me for being able to take charge on my own."

Thirteen slyly took my hand and walked in, "Changxing is back, he is uglier and darker than before, sister, you go and take a look." ”

Changxing seemed to have stood for a long time, and when he saw me, he stood up stiffly, and his voice was a little suppressed and trembling, "Princess, I'm back." ”

Thirteen snorted from his nose, but his eyebrows couldn't hide his joy, "Changxing won't leave when he comes back, we are all together again, can Sister come to see me often?" ”

My eyes narrowed slightly, my smile curved, and my hand rubbed Thirteen's head, which was a little taller than before, and she was a big girl.

The Queen Mother came out of the house, "Chang'an." ”

"Yes." I answered.

In the past few years, everything has changed, even myself, I subconsciously rubbed the whip on my body, and I was uncomfortable to let go.

I haven't touched it for a long time, and now there is only a sense of strangeness.

"If the mourning family is not dead, there will be no chaos in the palace, and those concubines who are in chaos have all been given to death." The Queen Mother said.

I've heard about things in the palace.

Thirteen is in the palace, sooner or later it will not be a secret, those concubines who did not accompany the funeral, some of them have different intentions, they will inevitably make trouble, as early as I expected.

What is unexpectedly is that the Queen Mother, who has always only expressed her likes and dislikes simply and straightforwardly, and is accustomed to letting people around her do it, will actually deal with it herself, and handle it cleanly, with ruthless means, calming down all the restlessness in the palace.

Killing has always been the best form of suppression, and it was, and still is.

"Hmm." I nodded, bent down and hugged the white tiger in my lap.

The white tiger was fatter than before, with sharp claws like a puppy, sniffing at me, and its big head arching in my arms, almost arching me off the stone chair.

"Now that the Gu Mansion is in ruins, and there is no skill to return to the sky, there is no need to be afraid, do you still have the Buddha beads?" The Queen Mother asked me suddenly.

I handed the beads over, but she didn't take them, but said to me, "If you can use them, just use them." ”

Thirteen let me break away, but Changxing stubbornly refused to go, he was more mature than before, smarter, and understood the sophistication of human feelings, he was not a child like Thirteen who was raised in the deep palace without much thought, and he could hear the deep meaning.

"The Queen Mother?" I looked up at her inquiringly, my fingertips twitching slightly.

"Don't scruple, I have the edict of the emperor, plus your previous one, to keep the Baifu and these two children." The Queen Mother didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "If you can go tonight, just go." ”

One sentence broke through the most hidden things in my heart.

"Princess, are you leaving?" Changxing spoke, he was in the period of juvenile voice change, his voice was very hoarse, and he seemed to be a little hesitant.

"Yes."

I closed my eyes, opened them again, and said, "I'm leaving." ”

Yesterday's everything, today's everything, how can you really forget.

Pei Yousheng.

My fingertips trembled, and it seemed as if a tingling was running up my heart.

Love and hate are mixed, and even I can't tell whether I love more or hate more, the only thing I know is that there are countless chasms between me and him, and I can't cross it.

"Can I join us?" Changxing whispered, as if with a little pleading, "I am still good at martial arts now, and I can protect you." ”

"No." I raised my hand and rubbed his hair, and the child who used to sit on the old man's knee and smile sweetly at me was now grown up enough to hold up a piece of the world.

"You have your own ambitions, you have your own beliefs, and your future is bright and flat, so why risk it with me, it's not worth it."

"It's not!" Changxing's voice became excited, and his tone was complex and low, with suppressed pain, "Isn't it good for me to protect you?" ”

I seemed to hear him murmuring, "But my faith is yours too." ”
