Chapter 296: Ulterior Motives

Gu Yan fiddled with the teacup in her hand, to be honest, this set of tea sets is really good, what should I do to get this set of jade tea sets back?

"Don't beat me up again about this set of teacups, and if you really want it, I'll send another set to the palace." Gu Suliang smiled at Gu Yan, "You are generous, but haven't you invested a lot of money in these two shops?" ”

Gu Yan picked up the teacup without care, "It's okay, the prince will give me these two shops according to the price you estimated for me, all according to the price, right?" After Gu Yan finished speaking, she also glanced at Shen Qianshan.

Shen Qianshan coughed a little unnaturally, "Ahem, that and that...... That's fine. ”

Shen Qianshan still has a little hair in his heart, to be honest, this Gu Su Liang can be regarded as a business wizard, not to mention that all the industries in Gu Su Liang's hands add up to almost a rich country, even if it is a store operated by him, it must be of extraordinary value, if you know that you have taken Chang'er's shop as bait, I am afraid that I will have to go back to the palace first to take a good inventory of the assets in my house and see if it is enough to supply Chang'er.

"Hahahaha......" Gu Su Liang laughed instead, "The prince doesn't have to worry, because it is the shop of the ninth princess, so I don't have more thoughts from the head of the family, just to make it less eye-catching, so if you turn assets, I think the web page should be affordable." ”

"Alright then, then do it, this is the best solution." Gu Huai'an looked at the ridiculous expressions of the three people, and pouted helplessly, "But you still have to arrange the people who stay in the store, right?" ”

"Yes," Shen Qianshan nodded, "Then I'll go and arrange it first, Qi Bai, take the princess and the eldest prince back to the house earlier, and this king will leave first." ”

Shen Qianshan looked at Gu Yan and Gu Huai'an behind him, if there were two people with strong martial arts by his side, Gu Yan would definitely have no problem, he nodded at Gu Yan, "Go back early." ”

Gu Yan watched Shen Qianshan leave, and Gu Yan also stood up, "Then brother, should we also go back early?" ”

Gu Huai'an smiled at Gu Su Liang, "In that case, our brother and sister should not disturb Gu Su Gongzi here, then Gu Su Gongzi, we left earlier." ”

"Wait!" Gu Su Liang stopped the two people who were about to leave, "Ninth Princess, there is something I want to talk to you about alone, can you give me a little time?" ”

Gu Yan didn't expect that Gu Su Liang would suddenly stop herself, turned her head, and looked at Gu Su Liang with some confusion, "Ah Liang, is there something wrong?" ”

"Yes, but I'd like to talk to you about these things alone."

Gu Huai'an seemed to feel a little wrong, but he didn't say anything, and walked out of the hall, "You guys have to hurry up, it's quite cold outside." ”

In fact, after getting along these days, Gu Huai'an's impression of Gu Suliang is actually very good, so he will also believe that the previous thing, if it was not calculated, Gu Suliang would not have done such a thing.

Gu Su Liang took out a small thing from his sleeve, "I also got this thing recently, I think it looks good, so I made some carvings myself, and there is no other use for staying by my side, so I want to leave it to you." Gu Su Liang hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, "This is a good thing, don't spoil it." ”

Gu Yan picked up the pink jade hairpin in Gu Su Liang's hand a little inexplicably, she didn't like this pink color very much, but this jade hairpin is particularly close to her eyes, and it looks like the pattern on it is also extraordinarily fine, since it was sent by Gu Su Liang, it must not be a cheap thing, Gu Yan quickly took off the hairpin on her head and replaced it with the jade hairpin in Gu Su Liang's hand, "Is it good-looking?" ”

Gu Su Liang nodded, "Indeed, princess...... It's really nice to look ......."

Gu Yan didn't notice the unusual expression on Gu Suliang's face, "But what are you doing, all of a sudden you said that you would give me a jade tea set, and all of a sudden you want to give me such a valuable hairpin, could it be that you have done something sorry for me?" ”

Looking at Gu Yan's evil smile, Gu Suliang was a little embarrassed, and smiled with relief, "It's nothing, since you have contributed the shop in your hand, I will be more or less helped by your practice, so this jade hairpin should be regarded as a little compensation for you." ”

Gu Yan felt that today's Gu Su Liang was a little different from the past, but Gu Su Liang had always been an informal person, so he shouldn't have anything on his mind, so he didn't take it to heart.

"Okay, now that the matter is over, then I'll go first!"

Gu Huai'an didn't notice any changes in Gu Yan's hair accessories, so he didn't ask the specific content of the conversation between the two of them, and took Gu Yan back to the Nine Kings' Mansion.

"What I told you today, you must remember it, okay?" Gu Huai'an looked at Gu Yan a little helplessly, "Tell me, how many times have I told you, when you are alone, don't go out secretly, you are now a special period, you should pay more attention to your body, but what about you?" You always care so little about your body. "This stupid sister, doing a good job is to let yourself have an endless heart.

"Okay...... okay" Gu Yan felt that since his brother found out about his pregnancy, he seemed to be like an old woman, always rambling on such and such things.

"Brother," Gu Yan looked at him pitifully, "I'm so tired, we've walked a lot of places today, can we go back to the room early to rest?" Also, my brother must remember to wake me up at dinner! ”

That is, in order not to listen to Gu Huai'an's broken thoughts, Gu Yan directly planted herself on the bed and closed her eyes.

Gu Yan closed her eyes and fell asleep directly, because Shen Qianshan wanted to arrange people to enter the two shops, so after eating, he and Gu Suliang went to choose the right person to go undercover, and Gu Huai'an guarded Gu Yan.

Seeing Gu Chang'an closing her eyes steadily, Gu Huai'an was able to relax a little, and listened to Shen Qianshan say that these two shops were the back roads left for herself when Gu Chang had not completely separated from the Gu family, although now there is Shen Qianshan behind Gu Chang's body, but these two shops are still very important to Chang'er.

Gu Huaian felt as if she had missed her sister's whole life, when she needed herself, she only cared about herself, but she didn't expect that she would have to take on so many things as a girl who was still so young.

Gu Yan may be really tired, and after a while, a slight snoring sound, Gu Huai'an was afraid that Gu Yan would sleep comfortably with her head pinned, so she was about to untie Gu Yan's hair, but when she disassembled the bun, she found this special hairpin on Gu Yan's head.

"It's ......"

This hairpin, he has really seen it, because he has been staying in the Lingyin Pavilion for the past few days, and he will have some contact with Gu Su Liang more or less, this light pink jade, which is rumored to be raised with human blood, is very rare, so he will have special notices, because the pink jade is not good at pondering, this hairpin is carved by Gu Su Liang himself little by little, although he will be a little curious at first, but after all, the relationship between himself and Gu Su Liang is not so good, such a thing about other people's private affairs, Gu Huaian still didn't ask.

I didn't expect Gu Suliang to carve this hairpin so carefully, for the sake of the concubine.

The things that happened to Gu Su Liang and Chang'er before, I thought that Gu Su Liang was the kind of personality who would never see the person he liked and accompany others, but he didn't expect that Gu Su Liang would do this for the sake of his lover.

But why, since Gu Su Liang is already content with the status quo, will he still send this elaborate hairpin to the hands of Chang'er?

Sister-in-law too, even if you don't know what this thing is, you can't just accept a gift from someone who has had an ambiguous relationship with you, right, this stupid girl of your own......

Gu Huai'an looked at the hairpin in his hand, does this hairpin seem to have a deeper meaning? Gu Su Liang, will his sister have any other ideas? But Gu Su Liang and Shen Qianshan are not bad people, what if this matter becomes more complicated?

Looking at the invitation card in his hand, Shen Qianshan frowned, he had finally arranged so many things, and now he had encountered such a thing.

"What's wrong?" Gu Yan rubbed her eyes, it was about to be dinner, and her brother called herself up, as if she had become more and more sleepy since she was pregnant, and finally got up, and as soon as she entered the dining room, she happened to meet Shen Qianshan with a sad face.

Shen Qianshan put down the invitation card in his hand, "The princess of Dongliangguo is here, tomorrow the emperor will set up a banquet in the palace, and the banquet will invite hundreds of officials, which seems to have the meaning of giving this princess and relatives." ”

Generally speaking, Shen Zhongbai came forward for such a thing, after all, this is the princess of Dongliang Kingdom, plus Shen Zhongbai and this princess are of the same age, even if this princess marries into the palace, there will be no grievances.

"Now that the invitations have been delivered, why don't you go?" Gu Yan picked up the chopsticks, "To be honest, maybe Shen Zhongbai has no way to deal with this matter, so he will gather so many civil and military officials at once, maybe, he has no way to solve these things himself, so he will call everyone over." ”
