The corners of Cheng Linhua's mouth twitched, feeling that this kid was getting bolder and bolder, and this sentence was too bad for the princess.

He went to look at Gu Jue's face again, and saw that Gu Jue hooked the corners of his mouth with a smile, as if he felt the same way.

At this time, Cheng Linhua also counted in his heart, it seems that the prince doesn't look down on Chu Lingxiao at all, and he doesn't look at the princess differently.

So, Cheng Linhua spoke a little more casually, and continued: "Yongding Hou can be said to be ambitious and talented, and he has achieved nothing. ”

"After he accepted the knighthood, he had no merit and no mistakes over the years, and his performance was mediocre, but he wanted to show his face in front of the emperor. I had previously sought an errand as the deputy commander of the flag guard, but because I broke my leg and lost it again, I recuperated in the house for more than a month before I was sent to the northwest. ”

Cheng Linhua also understood very well in his heart that if Chu Lingxiao could return to Beijing alive, his career would be completely broken. He is the princess's father after all, no matter how much Qin Shizi tosses him, he should leave him half a life......

After talking about Chu Lingxiao, Cheng Linhua said something about Chu Yunyi and Chu Yunmu, and then began to talk about the other rooms of the Chu family, especially the mother and daughter of the Liu family in the second room, and said a few more words, especially how Chu Qianling's face was hurt......

In the end, Cheng Linhua sighed: "That day, if the princess's reaction was a little slower, it might be the princess who hurt her face!" ”

Chu Qianchen's life in the Chu family is simply full of crises, as if walking on the edge of a cliff, if you step on the wrong foot, you will never recover.

At this time, the little black cat outside the window was attracted by another dragonfly, and it pounced for a while. It was so engrossed that it didn't notice that it was getting closer to the pond and jumped again......

Stupid cat!

Gu Jue casually picked up the tea lid and threw it out of the window.

The small tea lid made a long curve in mid-air and smashed accurately on a lotus leaf by the pond, and the lotus leaf swayed violently, attracting the attention of the little black cat.

"Meow!"

The little black cat braked the car, stopped on the shore, and stared curiously at the swaying lotus leaves, its eyes widened.

This scene also fell into the eyes of Cheng Linhua and Xiaowu.

The same meaning is written in the eyes of the two, is this called, love house and Wu?

Cheng Linhua was just thinking about it in his head, and the little guy couldn't help but say it, attracting Gu Jue's eyes to look at him.

"Love the house and the black." Gu Jue repeated lightly, as if he was talking to himself.

When Gu Jue returned to the main courtyard, he was still thinking about these four words in his mind: love house and Wu.

The inner chamber was still quiet.

Only the hazy moonlight shone through the window, casting a patch of silver frost on the smooth floor.

Gu Jue slowed down the steps under his feet and walked slowly to the couch without making a sound.

The girl was half-curled up on the couch, quietly, like a small shrimp, and the thin quilt on her body spread out a little.

Her breathing was even and long, her long black hair was scattered on the white porcelain pillow, and a few strands of green silk covered her flushed cheeks, like a water lily floating in the dark fragrance under the moon.

She slept so peacefully, like a carefree child.

And yet—

Gu Jue couldn't help but think of Cheng Huayu's words.

This little girl has been in the Chu family for more than ten years, and Chu Lingxiao is not worthy of being a father at all.

However, now she does not see cowardice, let alone paranoia.

But it has grown into what it is now, not shocked by honor and disgrace, not surprised by changes, and generous, quite a kind of "watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court" calmly and freely.

Gu Jue stared deeply at her quiet sleeping face.

Gradually, an indescribable feeling appeared in my heart, which seemed to be a little tingling and a little sour.

This is probably distressing.

Gu Jue hooked the corners of her lower lip, bowed slightly, and lightly helped her wrap the thin quilt, and then lay down beside her.

The girl seemed to feel the heat at her side, shrank back at him, and pinched his wrist with one hand.

Gu Jue's body froze and didn't dare to move.

He could feel the heat of her body coming through the thin clothes of the two of them.

Sakura, the sleeping girl, moved her lips and muttered a few times unconsciously in her mouth, slurred......

Gu Jue listened carefully, and then she was sure that she was saying:

"Lord Wang, be obedient!"

Her tone was fierce and delicate.

Gu Jue was stunned, couldn't help laughing, and his body relaxed.

His clear eyes were surprisingly bright in the darkness, and he said to himself: This time, what she did was definitely not a nightmare.

Gu Jue held her hand, and her response was to gently rub his palm with her warm and soft palm, and muttered softly, the corners of her lips curled.

In Tianshuibi's bed tent, the incense on the two of them slowly merged in the air......

Gu Jue also closed his eyes, and drowsiness came to him, and being with her also made him feel at ease.

He knew he could trust her, just as she trusted him.

Gu Jue quickly fell into a deep sleep.

When Chu Qianchen woke up, it was already dawn, and she was nestled in Gu Jue's arms.

She looked at his sharply contoured face, his eyebrows sparse and picturesque, his breathing slow, the warm breath from the wings of his nose sprinkled on the side of her neck.

He is alive at the moment!

The familiar, faint agarwood fragrance on his body made her feel very reassured.

She couldn't help but arch into his arms, rubbing his shoulders with the top of her head, like a little milk cat, expressing her joy.

Gu Jue woke up almost when she opened her eyes, and her body froze again.

Chu Qianchen immediately felt it, raised his head from his arms, and subconsciously smiled.

"Lord Wang, it's still early, let's sleep a little longer." Chu Qianchen opened a pair of bright eyes and stared at him without blinking.

Gu Jue: "......"

Where could Gu Jue sleep, he raised his hand to brush her messy hair behind his ear, and asked, "Are you going to go to Mu Guogong's Mansion in a while?" ”

One sentence successfully diverted Chu Qianchen's attention.

Chu Qianchen sat up from the couch with the thin quilt in his arms.

Yesterday, Shen's emergency was controlled because of her treatment in time, but it didn't get better so quickly, and she had to go to the Guogong Mansion to diagnose Shen's pulse as soon as possible.

And......

Thinking of Shen's eyes when she left last night, Chu Qianchen's heart was a little uncomfortable, and his heart shrank slightly.

Gu Jue said: "After breakfast, let's go together, and I'll send you over." ”

"Hmm." Chu Qianchen was happy, and asked casually, "Is the prince going to see Wuhajialou today?" ”

"Yes." Gu Jue did not shy away from responding.

Amber and the others heard the movement in the inner room, and knew that the two masters had gotten up, so they asked, and then came in to serve the master to dress and make, or rather, to serve Chu Qianchen alone.

Gu Jue has been in the army all the year round, and he has long been used to taking care of himself, so he went to the blue yarn closet to dress.

There was a rustling sound behind the partition door of the blue gauze cupboard.

Chu Qianchen sat in front of the dresser and combed her hair by Amber, and said to Gu Jue in the Bisha cupboard: "Lord Wang, I have also dealt with this person in Wuhe Jialou a few times, and this person is not easy to deal with. ”

Chu Qianchen talked in detail about the few times that Wuhe Jialou had asked her to talk to her.

Amber gently combed Chu Qianchen's hair, and her thick and smooth black hair was shining like silk, and she combed it to the end.

"Oh?" Gu Jue said as he walked out from behind the screen.

In just a short period of time, he changed into a moon white cloud pattern straight jacket, and a brocade belt inlaid with jasper was tied around his waist.

Chu Qianchen looked at Gu Jue reflected in the mirror through the rhombic mirror, and continued: "The person of Wuhe Jialou looks elegant and gentle like jade on the surface, but in fact, he is scheming and scheming, and he can have more than a dozen layers of meaning in a sentence, all of which are twists and turns. ”

Chu Qianchen didn't hate Wuhajialou, after all, they were in different positions, and each had its own country.

For this Nanhao prince, the Chenwang Mansion can make friends and alliances, but at the same time, you have to be on guard against one or two.

Chu Qianchen was not afraid of Wuhe Jialou, she was just worried that Gu Jue would be too sad to talk to Wuhajialou.

Chu Qianchen's words also fell into Jiang Yuan's ears word for word, Jiang Yuan glanced at her with a strange expression, and said in his heart: If Wuhe Jialou is scheming, then his own prince is not a simple little white rabbit.

Their princess, it's really interesting.

Chu Qianchen told Gu Jue all the way, until Gu Jue sent the person to the Mu Guogong Mansion, and the carriage stopped at the gate of the Guogong Mansion.

Chu Qianchen got out of the carriage, and Gu Jue himself went to Yunting Pavilion openly.

When Gu Jue arrived, a young monk in a white monk's robe was already waiting for him in a pavilion, white as snow and spotless.

"Childe, please." Xiao Er of Yunting Pavilion walked in front and showed Gu Jue the way.

Xiao Er looked at Gu Jue and Wuhajialou with some curiosity, feeling that these two were not ordinary people at first glance, and secretly guessed their identities in his heart.

Tama waved his hand and sent Xiao Er away.

Gu Jue walked leisurely outside the pavilion and looked at the Wuhajia Tower in the pavilion.

The two looked at each other, one with a cold look and the other with a calm look, and when the four eyes met, time seemed to stand still for a moment.

Jialou was the first to move, got up with a smile, held the beads in his right hand, and made a Buddha salute with his left hand, "His Royal Highness King Chen." ”

After saluting each other, Gu Jue and Jia Lou sat down on the stone table in the pavilion.

In the center of the stone table is a chessboard, on which a chess game has been arranged, dozens of blacks and whites are scattered, and the chess game is magnificent and magnificent.

At this moment, Bai Zi is like a white dragon meandering in the middle of the chessboard, majestic and steady, and at a second glance, it looks like a double-edged sword, which can hurt others and oneself;

The sunspots are passively struggling together, scattered, long in defense, but also attacking.

Black and white are glued to each other, and each side occupies a piece of the world on the chessboard, you fight for me, life and death are mixed, and there are thousands of changes hidden in it.

The second half is the key.

Whether it's a black or a white one, if you take one wrong step, you risk going to a rout.

Jia Lou smiled slightly, and pointed to the dotted chessboard with his right hand, "His Royal Highness King Chen would like to accompany me to talk about a game?" ”

Gu Jue raised his sword eyebrows, and naturally saw it.

The white on this chessboard means Haoguo, and the black represents their Great Qi.

Outside the pavilion, a few rays of sunlight cast dappled light and shadow on the chessboard through the layers of branches and leaves, and the light and shadow also swayed and floated on the chessboard in the summer breeze, making this intricate chessboard look faintly revealing an unfathomable feeling.

Gu Jue hooked his lower lip slightly.

Interesting.

Gu Jue picked up a sunspot from the chess box in response.

Meaning, what's the point of the next game?

The sunspot fell decisively, and the first son self-destructed a sunspot, and this move was thrilling.

Even if Tama is not good at Go, it can be seen that Gu Jue's move is completely suicidal.

What is this King Chen crazy about!

Jia Lou also glanced at Gu Jue in surprise, his eyebrows moved slightly, but he was amazed.

This King Chen really deserves to be a fierce general who defended the northern land for Northern Qi and killed Chidi, and his shot was extraordinary.

He seemed to have lost a piece of sunspot in this move, but in fact, it gave the sunspot a way to survive in the upper right corner of the chessboard, taking retreat as advance, trying to give Baizi a chance to survive.

But now, the life of sunspots is not yet a climate!

Garu picked up a white seed and fell.

Luozi's voice is crisp and decisive, with a decisive temperament, and his chess style is very different from his holy and dusty temperament.

The two of them didn't speak for a while, and the black and white chess pieces fell one by one, and I fell one by one, and the speed at which both sides fell was extremely fast, as if they didn't need to think at all.

Gradually, the situation on the chessboard began to change subtly, and those sunspots began to coalesce together, forming a force that was equal to that of whites, and reversed the disadvantage.

On the contrary, although Bai Zi, who is stuck in place, still occupies half of the sky on the chessboard, he seems to be standing on the edge of a cliff, as long as he takes a wrong step, he will be doomed......

The speed of the white child began to slow down.

Jia Lou is not a stupid person, from the thousands of changes in this black and white chess piece, he understood what Gu Jue wanted to say.

Is the other party suggesting that he break the deformed bone and renew the broken bone?!

Jialou's eyes flashed, and another white child fell.

The fighting on the chessboard never stopped, and the black and white entered a war without gunpowder.

Until the end, no one knows if it will be a lose-lose battle or a rebirth battle.

Tama's expression became more and more solemn, he had never seen anyone push their eldest prince to such a point.

"Rustling ......"

The shadows and shadows of the trees swayed in the wind, as if the surrounding grass and trees were whispering.

The golden sun rose higher and higher, and the weather became hotter and hotter, illuminating the buildings, the ground, and the vegetation as if they were glowing.

A full hour later, Wuhajialou and his party walked out of the Cloud Pavilion Pavilion.

Their carriage had already waited outside the Yunting Pavilion, and after getting into the carriage, Tama couldn't help but speak: "Great Prince, King Chen seems to be in good spirits. ”

If King Chen is here, Daqi will be impregnable.

Jialou twisted the string of Ganan Buddha beads in his hand with one hand, and bowed his head slightly.

When he was playing chess just now, he deliberately observed Gu Jue carefully, and Gu Jue looked very different from the day of his wedding.

On the day of the wedding, King Chen's eyes were dull and weak, although he didn't show it, he looked like nothing happened, but Jia Lou could see that even if King Chen was not in danger at that time, he was also tired, and the oil ran out, and he was afraid that the previous rumors about his short life were not groundless.

But today's Chenwang holds the chess pieces with extremely stable fingers, and when he lands the pieces, he can be described as loud and neat.

He was supposed to have an injury, but after Chu Qianchen's treatment, he was afraid that his injury had healed......

Jia Lou said in a low voice: "The Emperor of Northern Qi is afraid that he didn't even think of ......"

Everyone knows that this emperor of Northern Qi has always been afraid of King Chen, so afraid that he wished that Northern Qi would cut off his arm.

King Chen is a sword of the Northern Qi Dynasty, an invincible sword, invincible and invincible.

If there is no King Chen, the current Northern Qi is equivalent to having no generals available, and there is nothing to be afraid of, then they will have the opportunity to dominate the mountains and rivers.

The more Tama and the others thought about it, the more they felt a little embarrassed, and exchanged glances with each other.

"What a pity!" Tama couldn't help but sigh, "This King Chen's luck is really good. ”

Another thin middle-aged man said, "That's not easy to say! ”

"The Great Qi Emperor is narrow-minded, as long as King Chen lives, the vigilance of this Great Qi Emperor will only get worse day by day, until one day he can't bear it anymore......"

The middle-aged man raised his right palm and made a gesture of slashing down.

With the Emperor of Daqi, as long as there is no war in Daqi, sooner or later he will not be able to help but attack King Chen, and at that time, they Dahao may not be able to wait for work.

Jia Lou didn't speak, picked up the corner of the curtain of the carriage, and glanced back from the window in the direction of Yunting Pavilion.

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes and continued: "When that time comes, whether the king is defeated or defeated, it depends on whether Gu Jue, the king of Chen, can take that step." ”

The carriage turned right at this time, leaving Yun Tingge far behind.

Jia Lou lowered the curtain and withdrew his gaze, thinking about the painting Gu Jue gave him and the game of chess they had just played.

It is impressive to see people by chess.

Jia Lou said lightly: "King Gu Jue is not the kind of person who is pedantic and loyal. ”

The conversation between him and Gu Jue rang in his ears-

"His Royal Highness King Chen, the Buddha said that everything has a fixed number, and everything should not be forced."

"Then I'll go against the sky."

This is Gu Jue's reply.

Jialu grabbed the string of Buddha beads in his hand, and gently stroked the beads with his fingertips, rubbing them again and again.

He fell into deep thought, and his eyes drooped, blocking the eyes that were as deep as the deep sea, and the bottom was not visible.

He didn't speak, and everyone else fell silent.

There was silence in the carriage, and there was no more sound.

The carriage didn't move very fast through the bustling streets, and it took a stick of incense to drive three streets.

When the carriage turned another corner, Uhagaru opened his eyes, and those deep eyes were firm and clear, unshakable.

"You guys get ready, and we'll leave for China as soon as possible." Callou Road.

For his words, Tama and others never questioned it, and they should have been.

They were also a little impatient, this trip to Northern Qi, they had been delayed longer than expected, if it weren't for King Chen, they should have set off for Hao after the Birthday Festival.

The carriage drove through a tree-lined street, and when Jialou lifted the curtain and looked out, the plaque of the Mu Guogong Mansion flashed before his eyes.

Chu Qianchen was still in the Mu Guogong Mansion at the moment, coaxing the Shen family to drink medicine.

Chu Qianchen helped Shen Shi blow the decoction medicine again and again, and felt that the temperature was too different, so he personally delivered the pill to her, "Mother, the medicine shouldn't be hot, you try it." ”

Shen took the medicine bowl with blue flowers on a white background, and his gaze was still lingering on Chu Qianchen's little face.

After Chu Qianchen advanced to the Guogong Mansion for an hour, the Shen family kept staring at her like this, refusing to let her leave half a step.

After Shen drank the decoction prescribed by Chu Qianchen yesterday, he slept until dawn, his mental state was much better than yesterday, and his eyes were bright again.

She took a sip of the medicine and looked up at Chu Qianchen again.

Chu Qianchen coaxed in a soft voice: "Mother, don't worry, I'm here, I won't run." ”

Mama Chen also joked: "Yes, madam, don't worry, there are slaves and maids watching the second aunt and grandmother here." ”

Shen Shi was amused, and then turned her attention to the medicine bowl, this time, she drank the soup in the bowl in one go.

Chu Qianchen was just like coaxing Chu Yunmu in the past, and stuffed a rose pine nut candy for the Shen family to eat.

"Mother, is the candy I made delicious?" Chu Qianchen smiled and made Shen happy, "I only allow Brother Mu to eat one a day, but my mother can eat two a day." ”

She playfully gestured with her fingers to "two", "However, you can't tell Brother Mu, otherwise he will mess with me again!" ”

Shen didn't know that his daughter was coaxing herself to be happy, but she was very useful in her heart, and felt that the pine nut candy in her mouth was fragrant and sweet.

She smiled cooperatively: "Okay, let's not tell Brother Mu." ”

Mother and daughter looked at each other as if they had a little secret.

"Mother, shall I make you tea?" Chu Qianchen said again.

"Okay." The Shen family was finally willing to let go of Chu Qianchen's hand.

Mama Chen and Dongmei immediately prepared the stove, purple clay pot, tea set, tea leaves, and so on.

Chu Qianchen sat in front of the tea table, and when the tea in the teapot boiled, he began to scald, wash the tea, brew, seal the pot, and divide the cup...... A complete set of tea-making movements are perfect, smooth and natural.

Chu Qianchen half-lowered his eyes, and seemed to be focusing on making tea, but his mind was actually a little confused.

In her last life, before she met the prince, she was lonely and helpless, and she was used to being ignored.

In this life, she suddenly had a mother-in-law, which made her a little unaccustomed.

In the past, she respected and liked the Shen family, and when she got along, respect was greater than intimacy, but now she ......

To be honest, now she doesn't know how to get along with Shen.

She couldn't help but think to herself: What if not?!

What if there is any doubt in this matter?!

After all, the abbot master of Daping Temple is no longer there, and all the relevant people such as Huang Wenpo, Mama Yu, Nurse Niang, Mama Cui and so on are no longer there.

She always felt that this matter was not solid, and she needed clearer evidence......

Tea was poured from the spout of the pot into the cup.

By making tea, Chu Qianchen's heart gradually calmed down.

Shen Shi stared at Chu Qianchen with burning eyes again, thinking that her action of making tea looked good.

Her dust sister is really good at anything!

"Mother," Chu Qianchen personally presented the freshly brewed tea to the Shen family, recalling the old matter, "Fourteen years ago, before the incident in Daping Temple, did you quarrel with your father?" ”

After leaving the Guogong Mansion yesterday, she talked to Gu Jue about these things in the carriage, and by the way, she sorted out her thoughts, and felt that everything that happened in Daping Temple was too coincidental.

Aunt Jiang and Shen happened to be in labor at such a close date, and they were both born prematurely, and Daping Temple was only a day's distance from their hometown, all of this was too coincidental, unless Chu Lingxiao had planned it from the beginning......

Shen raised his hand to take the tea from Chu Qianchen, blew the foam floating on the tea soup, and slowly smelled the fragrance of the tea, his eyes flashing.

Such a long time ago, she had long forgotten it, but because she had been entangled in this matter these days, she had nightmares night and nightmare, and remembered a lot of things from the past, some things she thought she had forgotten a long time ago, so when Chu Qianchen mentioned it now, she also vaguely remembered some old things.

Shen took a sip of the hot tea, then put down the pastel teacup, and a bitter taste appeared in his heart, which spread to his throat.

In fact, she and Chu Lingxiao have not gotten along well, and the two have not even had the so-called honey oil blending during the newlywed period, at most, they are lukewarm and respectful to each other.

She said in a low voice: "Back then, Jiang Minshan was unmarried and pregnant......"

The Shen family shouldn't have told Chu Qianchen about these pickled things, for fear of polluting her ears, but this matter is related to her life experience, and the Shen family can only say it.

Fifteen years ago, Chu Lingxiao wanted to accept Jiang Minshan as a concubine, but Mrs. Tai agreed, but the old marquis disagreed, and planned to find a family to marry Jiang Minshan far away.

Of course, the child in Jiang Minshan's belly is Chu Lingxiao's.

The old marquis had no choice but to allow Chu Lingxiao to accept Jiang Minshan, but because of this, he was even more displeased with her, and sent people to his hometown, saying that he would wait for her to give birth to a child.

Shen Shi said: "At that time, Chu Lingxiao once came to beg me, begging me to plead with your grandfather......"
