Chapter 334: It's good to be alive
When Dark Night saw Qi Bai's face, he was almost so frightened that he took a step back, thinking that he had fallen into a trick, Qi Bai himself didn't know how to bring a human/leather mask, so naturally he didn't dare to take it off easily, so he could only spread his hands helplessly, "Dark Night, is the prince with you?" ”
"Well, it's just that this time I'm the only one who came back, at the banquet just now, is what Shen Zhongbai and Gu Linjiang said true? Could it be that the princess really ...... "Even now, the dark night still can't believe that the princess is gone, if this is really the case, even he will not have the face to go back to see the prince."
Qi Bai naturally knew what he was worried about in the dark night, and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, the princess is nothing serious, but the matter is very complicated, for the time being, I can't tell you in detail, I can only wait for you to go to Lingyin Pavilion, and personally ask Gongzi Gusu, you have been away from the hall for too long, it is best not to stay outside, you are a good envoy of Southern Qi, if you disappear for too long, it is very likely that you will be suspected by Shen Zhongbai, go back early." ”
"Well, by the way, the prince also wants me to come back first to report safety to everyone, he is okay now, he is very safe, but he can't appear in Bei'an for the time being, and he will definitely come back safely after a while." Since the ninth princess is fine, the prince will definitely work hard to take care of the injuries on his body, and he will never let the princess worry.
Gu Yan and Shen Siyin finally reached a consensus and decided to temporarily postpone the marriage for two or three years, Shen Siyin was obviously moved by Gu Yan's words, after all, he didn't want to just be so casual, just explain his life's major events like this, and he would not delay himself, and he could help the emperor's brother, it was indeed a double win, and Shen Siyin had no reason to refuse.
At the door of the main hall, Gu Yan happened to meet Qi Bai, so she said goodbye to Shen Siyin, and after going in to say goodbye to Shen Zhongbai, she was about to leave, but she didn't expect to meet Gu Linjiang who had just gone out at the door of the main hall.
Gu Linjiang had a bitter look on his face, and it seemed that he had lost a lot in this game with Shen Zhongbai, but when he saw Gu Suran, he still greeted him with a smile, "Why hasn't Gongzi Gu Su left yet?" ”
"Prime Minister Gu, the grass people are also entering the palace for the first time, so they are still a little curious about the things in this palace, so I went for a while with Her Royal Highness the princess just now, and after saying goodbye to the emperor, we will leave immediately." Gu Yan has also learned a lot about her father's ability to steer the rudder, although she dislikes him a hundred times in her heart, but on the surface, she is still plain, and even replied to his words with a little smile.
Gu Linjiang can clearly feel his estrangement from Gu Suran's words, but this Gu Suran is inevitably a little too ignorant, and he is also the prime minister of Bei'an, although the Gusu family has a big business, but in Chaozhou, if there is no little backer, this industry will naturally not be able to open, but the two people of this Gusu family are more screwed than one another, this Gu Suliang has not wavered in the slightest from his several invitations, and Gu Suran has always maintained a polite distance from himself, which is really difficult.
"Gusu Gongzi can break out of the world in Kyoto at a young age, he is really not an ordinary person, it really makes the old man very admired, I don't know how old Gusu Gongzi is this year? If you can't talk to Princess Siyin, there is still a little girl in the old minister's family, it seems that she should be about the same age as the son, can you introduce you two young people to each other if you have a chance? ”
Speaking of the little girl in Gu Linjiang's family, isn't it the shameless Gu Zhiyao?
Thinking about that woman, Gu Yan felt that her head was big, didn't Gu Linjiang really know what kind of character her fourth daughter was, why she couldn't give it to Bai Zhi before, and now she has her own idea?
"Caomin is nineteen years old this year, but since the emperor has given Princess Siyin to marry me, I naturally don't think about other girls anymore, I'm afraid I will live up to Prime Minister Gu's kindness." Gu Yan reluctantly squeezed out a little smile, still maintaining a good temper.
"Gongzi Gusu is also nineteen years old this year, alas, pity my eldest daughter who just passed away, that is, you are so old, it's a pity...... No wonder, I think you're so kind, it seems that this is all on the old man's mind. ”
Gu Yan tugged at the corners of her mouth, this old man may not be too good at it, he didn't even know how old his biological girl was this year, he was afraid that he would make such a big deal, so he deliberately said that he was a year older, but he didn't want this old man to be like this, so Tian shamelessly continued.
"Prime Minister Gu, let's mourn, I'm still waiting to say something to the emperor, so I won't send it to Lord Gu......"
This kind of conversation is obviously to lead him to jump into the pit, and Gu Yan didn't bother to talk to him herself, "The grass people are lowly, how dare they have a relationship with Lord Gu?" Or please take care of the people's day, the emperor is still waiting for the grass people, and the grass people will not send the prime minister more. ”
Shen Zhongbai's idea is indeed not wrong, originally Gu Linjiang only learned about such a person when Gu Suran became famous, but he was not at the scene at the Chamber of Commerce that day, and he only knew about it later when he heard his subordinates say that there was such a person.
However, he had gone to Gu Su Liang several times before, but he didn't get any answer, how could he just give up so easily, the forces in the court were enough, and now there was one aspect that could provide funds for himself, since Gu Su Liang didn't give himself this face, he wanted to start from Gu Su Ran's side, but he didn't expect that he was still preempted by Shen Zhongbai.
"This guy is really a toast and doesn't eat and drink."
"Your Majesty, the grass people still have some things to do, so I won't stay too much in the palace, I have discussed with the princess, although we have made a marriage contract, but we are not in a hurry to get married, I have too many affairs in my hands, I am afraid, when I am busy with the things in hand, I will snub the princess, so I have discussed with the princess, and all things will be postponed to three years later, and the wedding will be postponed for the time being, but I am still the princess's concubine, and I will never admit it, so is it good?"
Shen Zhongbai listened to Gu Suran's words, but he muttered a little in his heart, he was already afraid, this sister of his own was added to the Gusu family because of his ambitions, and it was inevitable that he would be a little wronged by her, but he didn't expect that Gu Suran would make such a request by himself, could it be that he really had such an awareness and knew that he was using him?
"What is my brother-in-law talking about? How could I have wronged you like this? Si Yin should be playful now, so she will always want to drag out the marriage, if you have any objections, I will never let her temperament come to a halt, you can rest assured. ”
"No, the emperor, the grass people have just gained a foothold in Kyoto, and they have not escaped the influence of their brother, so the grass people also want to comply with the princess's wishes, and they are busy with the marriage after handling the things in hand first, just ask for the emperor's approval."
As soon as Shen Zhongbai heard this, it was naturally impossible not to agree, this should be a good thing for himself, "Since both of you think like this, then it is inconvenient for me to intervene, the two of you are okay, just get along well." ”
Shen Zhongbai's original purpose was to draw Gu Suran under his banner, and this would not affect his original plan at all, since this was already the result of the discussion between Gu Suran and Si Yin, it was inconvenient for him to have any questions, just follow their wishes.
"Your Majesty, the grass people have taken their leave."
Compared with this incident, Gu Yan is now more worried about what happened to Qi Bai just now? Is that the envoy of the Southern Qi Kingdom the person he is looking for? Gu Yan and Qi Bai got into the carriage and confirmed that there were no people nearby before they started talking.
"Princess, that envoy just now, it's the dark night, the two of us have just talked, he already knows, you didn't have an accident, the prince is also now, it's safe, princess, you don't have to worry." When Qi Bai spoke, he couldn't control his excitement at all, but considering that this was still on the street, it was very likely that there would be people with superb martial arts who could hear what they said, so he relented.
Gu Yan heard that Shen Qianshan had nothing to do, and the big stone hanging in his heart for so many days could be regarded as completely letting go, as long as Shen Qianshan was fine, it didn't matter how many grievances he had suffered for so long, as long as Shen Qianshan was still alive, it was enough to be able to appear in front of him.
"Great......"
"By the way, the princess, the dark night will find an opportunity to come to Lingyin Pavilion to find you, you will tell him the details of what happened, what happened, he may also have the words of the prince, I want to tell you, the dark night told me that the prince is not in Bei'an now, but please rest assured, he must be safe now."
"That's good, that's good......" For so many days, the one who has been able to support Gu Chang to continue walking is Shen Qianshan, she believes that Shen Qianshan must have nothing to do, so no matter what she does, Gu Chang still maintains her original style, and she still quarrels with a few of them, but no one knows how scared she will be at night.
Shen Qianshan followed Su Jingxian back to the transition of Southern Qi, Su Jingxian is not a person who can do something to the relatives around him, in this regard, he is indeed completely different from Shen Zhongbai.
