Chapter 151: The Old Man

Gu Yan just shook her head and didn't say anything.

The sun was on the head but did not feel a trace of warmth, and before noon, the small sedan chair drove into the prime minister's mansion.

Unlike in the past, today's Prime Minister's Mansion is quiet and terrifying, and even the maids passing by don't dare to gasp, and when they see Gu Yan, they all kneel on the ground with a sympathetic expression.

Gu Yan was frightened by such an aura, held her breath, and walked towards the main hall.

The fragrance of tea in the main hall was waving, Shen Zhongbai sat in front of Gu Zhizhang, and after turning his hand on the table twice, he raised his eyes and happened to meet Gu Yan who came up.

Unexpectedly, he actually got up first, looked at Gu Yan with no emotion in his eyes, and then said, "You're back?" ”

After Gu Zhizhang heard this, he suddenly raised his head, what kind of compassionate expression was it, until a long time later, Gu Chang could think of that expression, that is, with that expression, Gu Chang believed that his father, at least he still had a trace of affection for himself.

took two steps forward, sat down by Shen Zhongbai, and handed over the tea with a long look in the maid's eyes, she didn't move, and asked coldly: "The third prince is in a hurry to call his concubine back, what's the matter?" If it's your brother's business, then you just have to tell your sister-in-law the solution. ”

Shen Zhongbai stared at the table in front of him, the atmosphere in this room was very subtle for a while, but everyone already knew it, it seemed that they were just waiting for someone to speak first.

"Sister-in-law, after the deliberation of the ministers, and the royal tradition, this king will ascend the throne in three months, and during these three months, the affairs of the court will also be in charge of this king. If you agree, your brother's matter, this king can not be blamed in the past. Shen Zhongbai's voice was low, word by word, very sincere.

He tried to look into Gu Yan's eyes and say it, so that she could feel his loyalty, but her eyes never even let go of her body, and she didn't want to look at her.

"Your Highness, what are you talking about? The marriage contract between the concubine and the ninth prince was made by the emperor, and you thought about canceling this marriage contract before you ascended the throne? Do you know how much you have gone too far? Gu Yan turned her head to meet Shen Zhongbai's eyes, her eyes seemed to be as sharp as knives, and every word was engraved on his heart.

As he expected, she didn't agree.

Gu Zhizhang, who had not spoken, suddenly raised his head, hated iron and said, "Sister, what's so good about that person of the Nine Princes?" How can you compare to the three princes who are so brave and resourceful, and besides, you are with the knowledge of painting, it is good to have a care, between sisters, it is always better than others. ”

Between sisters? Joke! When did she and Gu Zhihua become sisters? Although she didn't remember anything before, she just saw the face painted by Gu Zhi, and she knew what it meant that the face was born from the heart, and that woman was destined to be sad for a lifetime.

"Father said that sisters serve one husband? Father, can't you find another man for the women of your family? Do you have to make two sisters jealous for a man? What do you think? Gu Yan got up suddenly, swept aside the tea in front of her, which was not yet cold, and took everything on the table with her.

It's not that she looks down on Gu Zhizhang's tendency to be inflammatory, for a courtier, what can't she do in order to live? She is disgusted that she has sacrificed her for her own interests, what did she do wrong to bear these things? For Gu Zhizhang's desire that can't be hidden?

Shen Zhongbai and Gu Zhizhang obviously didn't expect Gu Yan to suddenly attack, and they both looked at her helplessly.

Since the amnesia, her temper has become more and more bad, and the respect for Gu Chengxiang before made him very useful, but now she is too lazy to pretend, no matter who she is in front of, she will not leave half a thin face for Gu Zhizhang.

Gu Zhizhang got up suddenly, pointed at Gu Yan and said, "Gu Yan, what do you mean by this?" Could it be that he wants to rebel against the future emperor? Or do you not have me as a father in your eyes at all? ”

His angry beard was cocked, and he shook and trembled, and the trace of guilt he had for Gu Yan before was gone.

Gu Yan still had the same expression as before, her eyes swept over Gu Zhizhang, but she didn't say anything, at this time, a few people rushed in from the front gate noisily, led by Ye Shi and Gu Zhihua.

Gu Zhihua was obviously looking good compared to the previous meeting, Ye Shi was beside him, and the two of them looked at Shen Zhongbai with a smile.

The maid cleaned up the fragments of the plates and cups on the table, Ye and Gu Zhihua sat down very unblindly, smiled at Shen Zhongbai, and said: "Zhongbai, do you want to take our Zhihua back this time, this is really good, we Zhihua has been married, and it is impossible to say that it is always passed on in the mother's family." ”

Ye smiled with him, and even Gu Zhihua was meek, as well-behaved as a kitten.

Shen Zhongbai glanced at Gu Zhihua, the maid had already brought new tea, he took a sip gently, and said unhurriedly: "Didn't she come back by herself?" The prince's mansion can't hold her so much, and now if you want to go back, you have to find a name. ”

Shen Zhongbai's meaning is very simple, at the beginning, Gu Zhihua wanted to take it back to his parents' house to scare Shen Zhongbai and make him pay attention to her, but he didn't want to fall into Shen Zhongbai's arms, and now that he wants to go back, I'm afraid it won't work.

"It's not that Zhihua is still young, and he has never left home, and after going out for a few days, he feels that he misses His Highness and wants to go back." Ye Shi said again, her expression went from laughing with her just now to slowly calming down, and even covered it with a layer of frost, staring at Shen Zhongbai calmly and seriously.

Shen Zhongbai naturally felt Ye's gaze, he was not a fool, he would not think that Gu Zhizhang was really afraid of him just because Gu Zhizhang was very respectful to him, Gu Cheng's Prime Minister's Mansion could stand for many years without falling because the strength and military power behind it should not be underestimated, and it was precisely because of this that the Ye family was so tough.

She clearly made up the reasons for how Gu Zhihua would go back, as long as he did what he said, in fact, no one dared to say anything if he said it or not.

"Your Royal Highness, you are not small, the position of this concubine is still vacant, sooner or later you have to find a suitable person to fill it, look at it, the entire capital can match your wife's position, there is only a girl who knows how to draw, now she is your concubine, if you can find the right time, it is better to correct her."

Everyone turned their heads to look at Ye Shi in surprise, these words are not things that can be said on the surface anyway, everyone can knock on the side and forget it, she said in front of Gu Yan and Shen Zhongbai at this time, how can Shen Zhongbai end?

Sure enough, Shen Zhongbai stared at Ye for a long time, and this long silence made everyone present feel uncomfortable.

Gu Yan doesn't like to join in the fun, and he is not interested in the grievances and grievances between Shen Zhongbai and Gu Zhihua, and he is not too embarrassed to leave, so he has to sit there obediently, if the Ye family can successfully send her baby daughter back to Shen Zhongbai's side today, it will not be a good thing, then Gu Zhihua will do his best to prevent Shen Zhongbai from marrying Gu Yan.

It just coincides with Gu Yan's point of view, and I don't want to be able to stand on the united front with these two shameless sluts in my lifetime, and sure enough, people can see everything after living for a long time.

"There are many women in the capital who can be the princess of this king, you see how the concubine is, she is the lord of the county, and she is the concubine of Shangshu Mansion, counting, that position is ......" When he said this, he naturally paused, what is that position, everyone knows very well.

That was the position of the future queen, if it weren't for that, how could the Ye family have the cheekiness to come over and sue for peace?

"That position is actually what the king has always wanted to leave to his sister-in-law, of course, if his sister-in-law agrees, it is naturally the best."

After speaking, Shen Zhongbai looked at Gu Yan, her eyes were full of affection and sweetness, which made her feel uncomfortable and very disgusting, and at this time, Ye Shi and the others were looking at her, waiting for her meaning.

She rolled her eyes and said impatiently, "Enough! ”

The Ye family got Gu Yan's attitude, and immediately picked up the words: "Yan'er is already engaged to the Ninth Prince, and if His Royal Highness wants to snatch away his brother and daughter-in-law, it will not be decent to spread it." ”

Gu Zhi listened, and finally responded in a low voice: "It's not, Third Highness, think about it again." ”

Gu Yan got up impatiently, turned her head and disappeared from everyone's sight without saying anything.

Gu Zhihua quietly watched her disappear, and there seemed to be something hidden in her eyes. These days in the Gu Cheng Prime Minister's mansion, no one knows what she has experienced, first got the most serious illness in the capital, thinking that she was finally going to die, but she didn't want Gu Huai'an to come up with a prescription in the end, and she finally picked up a life.

It was a bad feeling to be struggling to come up from the line of death, as if I could see a lot of things clearly in an instant.

She is no longer her former self, because she has been reborn, although in the eyes of outsiders, she has not changed, it is her psychology that has changed.

Shen Zhongbai looked at Gu Yan's back, shook his head slowly, and said firmly: "Don't think about it, Chang'er is the woman this king has always liked, and this king immediately ordered that the marriage contract between Jiu'er and Chang'er be invalidated." ”

After speaking, he also got up and was about to leave, Gu Zhihua got up and looked straight at Shen Zhongbai: "Your Highness will bring the concubine back as well." ”

Shen Zhongbai wanted to refuse, but he just looked at Gu Zhihua's face and those calm eyes, and finally nodded: "If you want, come back." ”

Ye's eyes lit up, he didn't want to go to great lengths to let Gu Yan go back, but he couldn't afford a word from others, and sure enough, Shen Zhongbai still had feelings for Gu Zhihua.
