"If you want to monopolize one person, that's what you like." Shiso's tone was calm. "Although the slave doesn't really like people, she also knows what it means to like."

Gu Yanran asked curiously. "Tell me, then, what is like?"

"When the slave maid first remembered, she had a little milk dog, and she held it in her arms from morning to night, and even when she slept, she didn't want anyone but me to touch it, so she wanted to keep it alone."

Gu Yanran smiled. "A man, a dog, how can this be the same?"

"It's all like, what's the difference?" Shiso pointed to the plate of pastries on the table again. "For example, this plate of pastries, because this is a whole plate of pastries, you don't think it's anything, you don't care, you can even share this delicious taste with others at will, but what if there is only one pastry on the plate? Would you still like to share it with others? ”

"......" Gu Yanran opened her mouth, but was speechless in the end.

"Although the words of the slave are a little rough, Li'er is such a li'er, whether it is a person, a dog, or a pastry, it is because you like it that you want to be exclusive."

Gu Yanran muttered in distraction. “…… Do you like it? It turned out that she unknowingly fell in love with him.

"You just asked the slave maid what to do if you have an obsession with wanting to monopolize a person."

"That's right." Gu Yanran nodded.

"In fact, there are many degrees of liking, if you just want to be exclusive, you just like it. But if you like it to the point of obsession, it's not just liking, but ...... I like it very much, I like it very much, I like it the most. ”

Gu Yanran was shocked. “！！！”

Zi Su saw that Gu Yanran was shocked, so he said. "It seems that you need time to think about it again, so the slave will not bother and retire first."

……

……

After Shiso left the gazebo, he returned to the stove room.

As soon as they entered the stove room, Gu Qiqiao, Ling Yuan and Mu Sitao surrounded them.

Gu Qiqiao. "Is the second prince gone?"

Ling Yuan. "When I went home, I found that Miss Chang was not in the right mood, didn't the two of them quarrel?"

Mousse Tao. ...... "Is the girl hungry?"

"I don't know if the two of them quarreled, because the second prince had already left when I passed." Shisu found a place to sit down before asking. "Okay, Qiqiao, Sister, let's talk, what's going on in the palace today?"

Gu Qiqiao scratched the back of his head and said. "I heard that the second prince asked the monarch to marry our concubine."

"Concubine!" Ling Yuan added.

Mu Sitao's eyes widened. “！！！”

"I see." Only then did Zi Su understand why Gu Yanran asked a question about exclusivity. "The girl doesn't even know that she likes the second prince, and the second prince's request for marriage should scare our sister-in-law."

"What? Miss Yan likes the second prince?! Gu Qiqiao covered her mouth.

Ling Yuan was also slightly surprised. "Although I knew that Miss Yan and the second prince were close, I didn't see that Miss Yan liked the second prince, I thought that the second prince unilaterally liked our girl."

Shiso agreed. "I also thought it was the second prince who unilaterally liked the girl."

Mu Sitao laughed. "......" It turns out that the girl and the second prince are in love.

"It turns out that the girl and the second prince are in love!" Gu Qiqiao exclaimed in hindsight.

At the same time, many people in the imperial city were also discussing the matter of the monarch's marriage to Nangong Xuanyi and Gu Yanran.

"The monarch actually gave the second prince and Gu Yanran a marriage?!"

"I heard that the second prince took the initiative to ask for the order."

"Then Gu Yanran is going to be the second prince's side concubine, tsk, how can I say that she is also the daughter of a big family, and she is actually a side concubine."

"What a side concubine, it's a concubine!"

"Concubine? No, I heard that it was a side concubine. ”

"The second prince of the family said in public that he would not marry a side concubine, but only a couple for a lifetime, and he would only favor the concubine."

"Don't accept side concubines or concubines?"

"That's right!"

"It's really commendable that you are so dedicated to being a prince...... But Gu Yanran's reputation is so bad, and the second prince doesn't dislike it? ”

"I also wonder, the daughters of the official families of the imperial city have a lot of good reputations and good looks, why did the second prince choose Gu Yanran?"

"There have been rumors about the second prince and Gu Yanran before, and the second prince has only gotten close to Gu Yanran since he came back, maybe the second prince should have been interested in Gu Yanran a long time ago, so he took advantage of this concubine banquet to mention this matter."

"No wonder, no wonder the second prince rejected the fourth girl of the Gu family and the fifth girl of the Gu family on the spot."

"Huh? What's going on? Let's hear it. ”

"That's it...... (Bah, lah, blah)"

On the other hand, the people in the Protector's Mansion also had different thoughts because of this matter.

After Lin Wanzhi learned about this, she suddenly realized. "It turns out that Yan'er's favorite person is the second prince."

Gu Jingnian looked solemn. "I'm afraid that the second prince doesn't really want to marry Yan'er."

"What do you mean?" Lin Wanzhi asked.

"The second prince has no power in the court, if you want to gain a firm foothold, you must win connections by marrying, I am afraid that the second prince is ...... because of the power of our Protector Mansion"

"Father must be overly worried." Gu Haoran spoke. "To be honest, the current situation of the Protectorate Mansion is not optimistic, the royal family is afraid of us, and the officials dare not have a deep relationship with us because of the royal family, and in recent years, the heirs of the royal family of the right age have not married the Protectorate Mansion, but they are worried that the power of the Protectorate Mansion will become bigger and bigger. If the second prince really wants to use the marriage to gain a firm foothold in the court, in fact, the last thing he should choose is the Protectorate Mansion. ”

Gu Jingnian knew that what Gu Haoran said was also true, but he still couldn't help but worry. "But ......"

"Don't." Lin Wanzhi interrupted Gu Jingnian. "I'll go to Yingyue Mansion in person tomorrow, and I'll talk about everything when I come back."

Gu Qiuyu in the boudoir.

Gu Qiuyu lay on the bed and cried hoarsely. "Woo woo woo ......"

Zhang Qingqing sat next to Gu Qiuyu and her voice was choked. "Good daughter, don't cry, you cry so much that your mother's heart hurts."

"But, but the second prince is doing that to me today, woo, mother, my daughter has no face to see people!" Gu Qiuyu cried even more.

Zhang Qingqing took Gu Qiuyu into his arms and comforted. "Don't cry, don't cry, the second prince is not just like this, those five girls are probably bigger than you."

"Hiccup, this can't be wooed, this can't be compared, she was just rejected by the second prince, and I woo, I'm a dirty thing...... How can he say that I have dirty eyes? How could he! Whew, that's too much. "The more Gu Qiuyu mentions, the more sad he becomes." Mother, when I left the palace, they were laughing at me and pointing at me, woo, my daughter doesn't want to live anymore! ”

Zhang Qingqing's heart was about to break. "Good daughter, you can't say this kind of thing, if you have something long and short, my mother will have to go with you."

"Mother!" Gu Qiuyu suddenly sat up and wiped away the snot and tears from his face. "You help me! Help me figure it out! ”

Zhang Qingqing nodded. "Okay, my mother will find a way for you, we must make the second prince pay for this."

"Hey, don't! How can you move the second prince? That's my future husband, your future son-in-law! ”

"......" Zhang Qingqing was stunned.

"I'm asking you to find a way to get rid of Gu Yanran, as long as Gu Yanran is gone, the position of the second princess is mine!"

Zhang Qingqing. ...... "Where did you get the confidence to say this?"
