Su Jinyao hurriedly asked, "Can't find it?" Or has someone already found out? ”

"It's been recovered, and it's been sent for repair." Gu Xuebin pinched the tip of Su Jinyao's little nose and said in a low voice: "I also instructed, if the repair is not good, find an identical one for you." ”

Only then did Su Jinyao know that Gu Xuebin had already noticed these small details and solved them for her.

The two of them were talking casually, when they suddenly heard someone behind them shouting: "Brother Huang, sister-in-law!" ”

This voice is a little familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere? Su Jinyao didn't think about it for a while.

But Gu Xuebin still looked like an old god, and he didn't even bother to look back, it seemed that he didn't care about the person behind him at all.

Finally figured out the queen's purpose

Su Jinyao saw Gu Xuebin's attitude, and the person called "Brother Huang", and then remembered that the person should be the third prince.

When I turned around, I saw Cang Qianmiao walking from the other end of the garden.

It seems that the third prince should have come in through the door on the other side, and met them by chance when passing by the garden.

Regarding Gu Xuebin's attitude, the third prince did not say anything. It's just that his eyes looked at Su Jinyao again, and his eyes flashed with a look of surprise unabashedly.

Su Jinyao is naturally beautiful, inheriting her mother's softness and heroism, with a bit of stubbornness between her eyebrows, but beside Gu Xuebin, she shows the unique sweetness of a little woman, so she is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it.

The pupils of the third prince shrank, and his heart kept tightening and tangling.

"Third brother, are you here to see your father? Why don't you go in yet? Gu Xuebin's attitude was never very good, so he directly wanted to send the three princes away.

Only then did the eyes of Cang Qianmiao withdraw from Su Jinyao's body, and he took a breath silently, bypassed Gu Xuebin and Su Jinyao, and walked in quickly.

Gu Xuebin didn't mean to turn his head to look over, and took Su Jinyao's hand and walked forward again.

After leaving here, there was no trace of the mist of a thousand things, so Su Jinyao said well: "You seem to be a little hostile to this third prince?" ”

Su Jinyao even felt that when the second prince and Gu Xuebin were fighting for the throne, they didn't see Gu Xuebin dislike the second prince so much.

Gu Xuebin snorted with his nose and said with some disdain: "He? Of the princes, he has the most eyes and the most amazing things. ”

"What's going on? Let's hear it. Su Jinyao glanced back, naturally she couldn't see the third prince.

But she felt weird, after all, she was also a half-brother, why did Gu Xuebin hate this third prince so much, and even showed it in his face?

Gu Xuebin thought for a while before he said: "I have been fighting for the position of prince with the second prince, just because the two of us were born at about the same time, and now I also know that my mother has made some mistakes, so my position as the crown prince was actually extremely unstable back then, no wonder the second prince is fighting with me." But Cang Qianmiao is different, as the third prince, he knows that he is not qualified to fight, even if I am fighting, there is still the second prince. So he made a lot of stumbling blocks for me and the second prince behind his back, which can be said to be a real wall grass. ”

Later, Gu Xuebin cited a few small things, all of which were two-sided and three-knife for the three princes, swaying left and right directly between Gu Xuebin and the second prince, and finally running to the emperor or queen to sell good things.

In general, the third prince knew that he had no chance to fight, and hoped that Gu Xuebin and the second prince would fight to the death, so that he could reap the profits.

After speaking, Gu Xuebin smiled coldly and said: "And his background is different from ours, his mother is a maid beside the queen, and once by chance she was favored by my father, and the pearl fetus was secretly knotted and gave birth to three princes." But his father never gave his mother a title, but handed over the third prince to the queen to raise, and asked him to recognize the queen as his mother. Therefore, his identity on the surface is the orthodox son of the queen, but in fact, he is not a concubine, but just a servant girl. ”

After Su Jinyao finished speaking, her brows furrowed. Then he smiled slightly and said, "Then haven't you thought about the reason why the mother of the third prince will be favored by the emperor?" ”

When Su Jinyao said this, Gu Xuebin was obviously stunned for a moment. Maybe because he is a man, he doesn't quite understand the open and secret battles of the harem women, so he hasn't figured out the reason for it for a long time.

But Su Jinyao knows very well that everyone knows that the queen mother has not given birth to a prince or princess due to physical reasons.

But the palace is a place where mothers and children are expensive. Could it be that the maids around the queen really had no intention of being favored by the emperor?

So the most likely thing is that the maid is a chess piece pushed out by the queen's mother, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she borrowed her belly to give birth to a child.

Then the queen had another son as she wished, and her maidservant had always been loyal to her side, and the queen had a place to rely on in the palace.

In other words, the reason why the three princes fought was deliberately sandwiched between Gu Xuebin and the second prince, wasn't the queen secretly backing him?

With this consideration, Su Jinyao suddenly understood why when she saw the queen for the first time, she always had an intuition in her heart, feeling that the queen mother might not treat her sincerely.

This may be out of a kind of joint heart, what the queen wants to deal with in her heart is Gu Xuebin, and Su Jinyao is Gu Xuebin's person, so it is strange that the queen can have a good impression of Su Jinyao.

And after Su Jinyao's reminder, Gu Xuebin's brows also furrowed.

Obviously, Gu Xuebin is smart enough, but he can't think of women's scheming and intrigue. But now that I think about it, it's not very difficult to understand.

The two glanced at each other, and Su Jinyao reminded again: "Then you say, what does the third prince mean when he comes to the emperor at this time?" ”

Gu Xuebin narrowed his deep eyes and said, "Just now Manager Yue said that the father is discussing with the queen?" ”

"About the Three Princes." Su Jinyao thought for a while, and immediately said, "Marriage!" ”

Gu Xuebin nodded, agreeing with this guess.

And Su Jinyao vaguely felt that things seemed to be a little complicated. Could it be that the purpose of this palace banquet is very strong, and it is aimed at the marriage of the three princes?

Su Jinyao asked, "Che, this palace banquet is not only attended by the royal princes and nobles and the ladies of the ministers, right?" ”

Gu Xuebin nodded and said, "Of course." This palace banquet is the father's banquet to invite the hundred officials of the court, which is intended to have fun with the emperor and celebrate the New Year. As for those female dependents, although they can also attend the palace banquet, they are just foils. ”

Su Jinyao held the elbow of the other with one hand, touched her chin with her fingers, and then said, "Is that the sons of the hundred officials also coming?" Isn't this still a blind date conference? ”

Gu Xuebin nodded again and said, "This is also a matter of no choice. The queen mother and the queen are in charge of the harem, and they are also quite concerned about the matter of marriage. Just imagine, if the strong join forces, the power of one or two families will become bigger and bigger, and if it is allowed to develop like this, it will inevitably pose a threat to the royal family. ”

Su Jinyao understood, this is a manifestation of the desire to restrain a certain family by marriage, or to deliberately support a certain party's forces.

It can be seen that such a thing as marriage is not about whose family has a good relationship with whom, and it is OK to set up a family with children and daughters.

See the Emperor

Thinking that another purpose of this palace banquet was to marry the third prince, Su Jinyao felt that things were not simple. She asked Gu Xuebin again: "If you look at the current strength and status of the three princes, which daughter of the queen likes the most to be his imperial concubine?" ”

Gu Xuebin thought about it and analyzed: "With the idea of the queen's mother, the third prince grew up beside her after all, and she has no heirs, so she is almost the same as her biological son, of course, she has to choose a powerful one that can be used by him." Then, looking at the only ones who can match the Feng family and the Gu family, there are only the Feng family and the Gu family. ”

Hearing Gu Xuebin mention the Gu family, Su Jinyao's heart hung up again, and she frowned and said, "Could it be that Xue Qi is also among them?" ”

Gu Xuebin affirmed: "That's nature. Gu Xueqi was originally the queen mother's favorite candidate for the crown princess, but now the candidate for the crown princess has been replaced by you, but Gu Xueqi is the eldest daughter of the ancient prime minister, of course, she can still represent the power of the Gu family. ”

Of course, Su Jinyao knew that her identity as the daughter of the ancient family was just to sit on the position of the crown princess, so she ran back to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors.

In fact, Gu Xueqi is the daughter of the Gu family and the Gu family. Of course, Prime Minister Gu will also love his daughter-in-law more, this is blood and blood affection, and it can't be said to be partial.

But once he marries Gu Xueqi, it is a marriage with the Gu family, which is bound to increase more strength chips.

Su Jinyao asked again: "What about the Feng family?" ”

Gu Xuebin said: "The Feng family has two daughters who are of the right age, one is the same age as Gu Xueqi, and the other has just entered this year. The two daughters of the Feng family will definitely be present at this palace banquet, and I will point it out to you when we pass over in a while. ”

Su Jinyao still frowned, and said, "What about Helian Tianqi?" Is it possible that he will appear at this palace banquet and be accused of marriage? ”

"He will come, but Tianqi's identity as the other princes is not the same, and Helian's identity as the head of the family will not accept the marriage casually. Helian Ruo wouldn't allow it. After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he said to Su Jinyao with a smile: "You have seen Helian Ruo, you know what kind of woman she is, she will not let Helian Tianqi be arranged by others." ”

This Su Jinyao believes it, but in this way, doesn't it prove that she was wrong before, Helian Tianqi will not become the object of Gu Xueqi's marriage?

Thinking about Mrs. Gu's words in the carriage again, and Gu Xueqi's pale face, Su Jinyao let out a long sigh and said, "I guess that it is most likely that Gu Xueqi will be married to the third prince." ”

After listening to this, Gu Xuebin also took a breath and said, "It seems that before I succeed to the throne, Cang Qianmiao still wants to fight with me again." ”

This reason is already obvious, if the third prince Cangqianmiao really marries Gu Xueqi, it is equivalent to him marrying the daughter of the Gu family with Gu Xuebin.

And Gu Xueqi is more intimate than Su Jinyao no matter what she says, so it is invisibly equivalent to overpowering Gu Xuebin. It can be seen that his intentions are indeed not very kind.

Thinking of this, Su Jinyao pursed her lips and said, "Maybe we should think of some way to make the third prince and Gu Xueqi have no fun." ”

Gu Xuebin smiled, took down Su Jinyao's hand that had been sweeping his chin, and said, "Actually, I'm not worried at all about who will covet the position of prince. What's more, if he has the ability, he will not rely on marriage to win over the Gu family. ”

"But I just don't want him to get his way. I

I want Xue Qi to be able to find a better one. Speaking of this, Su Jinyao said directly: "Helian Tianqi is better than him." ”

"But this matter doesn't even count what Tianqi himself said." After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he took Su Jinyao's hand and said, "Forget it, we don't worry about this matter, Cangqianmiao really can't set off any storms in front of me." ”

For Gu Xuebin's self-confidence, Su Jinyao also fully trusts it. As a result, neither of them mentioned it anymore.

It's just that Su Jinyao secretly felt sorry in her heart, thinking that if Gu Xueqi really wanted to marry the third prince, it would be a flower inserted on the cow's Xiang, which was a pity.

However, the matter has not yet been decided, and now the palace banquet has not started, and Su Jinyao is powerless.

After a while, the chief manager Yue came to invite Gu Xuebin, saying that the emperor had summoned him to see him.

Gu Xuebin naturally took Su Jinyao's hand and walked side by side with her, and he couldn't see the appearance of putting on a show.

And Gu Xuebin's enough attention to Su Jinyao also made this manager Yue understand in his heart that the woman next to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was really being favored. So if you want not to offend the prince, even this woman must be treated respectfully.

The main hall of the Seiwa Palace is the largest in the Imperial Palace, and it is also possible to convene ministers to discuss matters here. So as soon as Su Jinyao and Gu Xuebin walked in, they had a solemn feeling.

And Su Jinyao still feels that there is too little popularity here, so that it always makes people feel stereotypical and cool.

On the top golden dragon chair, a man in his thirties sits. It may also be about forty years old, but it just looks younger.

And the queen is no longer here at this time, and the third prince is not here, maybe the two of them left together?

At a glance, this emperor also looks like a talent, and he is a middle-aged uncle with a lot of charm. It's just that he is not as beautiful as Gu Xuebin, and it is estimated that Gu Xuebin is inherited from his mother.

Su Jinyao just glanced at it a few times in a hurry, and didn't dare to look more, so she lowered her head and took the initiative to salute the emperor.

Gu Xuebin also called "Father" and followed Su Jinyao to give a salute.

"Che'er, get up quickly. Come and sit next to my father. The emperor's tone is quite easy-going.

He asked Su Jinyao again, "You are Jinyao, right?" It's the first time I've seen you, but you're a well-behaved and clever look, and Che'er's vision will definitely not be wrong. Arise also, and sit down. ”

Su Jinyao thanked and stood up, and Manager Yue personally moved a chair and sent it to Su Jinyao's side.

However, although a chair was given, it was not placed on it, if Su Jinyao sat here, it would be Gu Xuebin's lower position, and it was a little far away from him.

Su Jinyao glanced at the chair beside her, but did not sit down, but slowly walked towards Gu Xuebin, with the intention of standing behind Gu Xuebin.

Instead of sitting in Gu Xuebin's lower position, he thinks that his identity is lower than Gu Xuebin, and he will be subordinated in the future.

And she took the initiative to stand behind Gu Xuebin, even if she couldn't reach the status of being equal to the prince, at least she was standing side by side with him and becoming the woman behind him.

For these small details, Su Jinyao will not miss them, so as not to be overwhelmed in the future.

Of course, the person who pressed her would not be Gu Xuebin, but in this harem, who knows which one will become an enemy.

A woman's position must be fought for herself

When the emperor saw Su Jinyao take the initiative to walk behind Gu Xuebin and stand down, he was stunned at first, and then smiled. Pointing at Su Jinyao, he said, "The little girl has a lot of thoughts." ”

When Su Jinyao heard this, she naturally understood what the emperor meant. However, she didn't answer, just pursed her lips and smiled, pretending to be stupid and standing behind Gu Xuebin.

Of course, Gu Xuebin would not let Su Jinyao suffer, glanced at Manager Yue, and said, "Master Yue, please bring the chair up." Jin Yao recognizes life, I want her to sit next to me. ”

Burst! Su Jinyao burst out laughing in her heart. She didn't expect Gu Xuebin to say what she recognized.

Manager Yue first observed the emperor's face, and saw that the emperor did not object, so he agreed with a smile, and hurriedly moved the chair for Su Jinyao.

Su Jinyao can be regarded as sitting next to Gu Xuebin. It seems that a woman's position is to be fought for by herself.

Of course, there is a man who can truly love her, and this status is also what this man wants to give her.

Su Jinyao sat down, and the emperor was still looking at her slowly. The eyes were not loving, but they were by no means sharp, and they did not make Su Jinyao feel uncomfortable.

After thinking about it, Su Jinyao also raised her head and met the emperor's gaze seriously. The eyes also stopped on his face seriously, which was regarded as a scrutiny.

At this moment, the emperor was stunned, perhaps he had never seen a girl with such courage to look at herself with such a straightforward gaze.

Su Jinyao saw a trace of astonishment in the emperor's eyes, smiled slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, I shouldn't be just a little woman in front of you, right?" ”

"Huh? Yes, you're still Che'er's crown princess. The emperor was also stunned by what Su Jinyao said, and then recognized Su Jinyao's identity.

Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, that's not what I'm talking about. You have a golden mouth, and the holy decree has already determined the identity of my crown princess, I have no doubt about this. I mean, my other identity is that of a healer. Che brought me here to let me help you diagnose your illness, and he was very worried about the emperor's health. ”

Hearing Su Jinyao say this, the emperor looked at Gu Xuebin, his eyes were full of approval, and said with a smile: "Well, Che'er has a heart." Since you are a disciple of the Divine Doctor, Jinyao, then take a good look at me. ”

Su Jinyao said: "I've seen it just now, and now I'm giving the emperor a pulse, is it okay?" ”

"Oh? Already seen it? The emperor smiled, looked a lot kinder, and said, "What do you see?" ”
