Su Jinyao was in conflict, Gu Xuebin sighed and said, "Jinyao, I can't hide anything from you." These are the people who originally served my mother. ”

"Huh?" Su Jinyao was stunned for a moment, and didn't react for a while. But then I understood that these people had followed Gu Xuebin's mother and concubine, and were later brought here by Gu Xuebin.

It's just that so many years have passed, Gu Xuebin raised them here, is it to see people and think about people, or is there another reason?

Gu Xuebin patted Su Jinyao's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go in first, you can't stand here all the time." ”

Su Jinyao nodded, and then followed Gu Xuebin towards the gate.

Stepping into the threshold, Su Jinyao's brows jumped twice again. Because as soon as you enter the door, there is a domineering and luxurious style from the shop.

Is this special called a courtyard? It's a palace.

The road under your feet is paved with white marble, and many patterns are carved so that the ground does not slip on it.

You can imagine how much effort it takes to maintain such a patterned road outdoors and maintain this pure white.

The house in front of you is also very delicate and luxurious and atmospheric, with arches and cornices, and a bronze gilt bell falling in the corner. As the north wind blows, the bells also make a subtle sound.

I just don't know what it will be like to be in this suburban courtyard, when the night is silent and the bell rings when the wind passes.

In addition to the road and the house, the decoration on the left and right is also quite magnificent.

The rockery is a Taihu Lake stone with 18 holes and a transparent shape; The corners are not ordinary flowers and plants, but clusters of dendrobium flowers that are at least five years old.

Dendrobium is a medicinal herb known as fairy grass, and the flowering is very beautiful, some are as gorgeous as Huilan, and some are as elegant as spring orchids. It's a pity that it's winter, and the dendrobium leaves are falling and shrinking in the corners.

Su Jinyao pouted her teeth and said to Gu Xuebin: "If I come to live in the spring next year, I will eat all of your dendrobiums with one fairy grass a day." ”

"Okay, even if Jinyao can't come in the spring next year, I will ask people to directly collect Dendrobium and send it to you." Gu Xuebin said indifferently, and directly took Su Jinyao's hand and entered the main hall.

The hall is also gorgeously furnished, with the finest hand-carved mahogany tables and chairs, gold-painted walls, beams and columns, and even the palace lamp overhead decorated with large crystals. It is estimated that when the lamp is lit at night, it will be colorful and bright.

Su Jinyao finally couldn't help it, and asked again, "Che, this is not your style, right?" Why do you always feel weird? ”

"This was designed and built by my mother back then. When I was a child, I didn't know that there was such a place, and it wasn't until I returned to the capital that my father gave it to me. ”

After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he sat down on the chair in the center, pulled Su Jinyao to his side, and hugged her waist.

The annex left by the mother

Gu Xuebin hugged Su Jinyao's waist, his arms tightened slightly, and pulled Su Jinyao into his arms.

But instead of holding Su Jinyao on his lap as usual, he hugged her waist and rested his head on Su Jinyao's body.

This pose looks a little strange at first glance, a bit like a ...... Gu Xuebin leaned against Su Jinyao and listened to her belly.

But Su Jinyao knew in her heart that her belly was really empty, and her breakfast was digested.

After hugging for a while, Su Jinyao heard Gu Xuebin's sigh. At the same time, a pair of arms tightened a little.

Su Jinyao raised her hand, hesitated, put it on Gu Xuebin's head, and asked softly, "Tired?" ”

"Hmm." Gu Xuebin replied sullenly, there were not many ups and downs in his voice, and he couldn't hear what he really meant now.

But Su Jinyao asked again: "Tired?" ”

"Hmm." Gu Xuebin was still in a faint voice. The waves were not shocked, as if it was not himself who made the sound.

Su Jinyao's fingers gently ran through Gu Xuebin's hair, and the fingertips stopped on his scalp with softness and warmth, making Gu Xuebin tremble slightly, and then raised his head.

Su Jinyao also lowered her head, smiled at him, and said, "There are only two of us here, let's talk about it." ”

Gu Xuebin's eyes glanced outward, knowing that Dongzi and Xiuning were both interested in not following up, but still "visiting" the luxurious corridors and courtyards outside.

Gu Xuebin took another breath and said, "As I said just now, this is left by the mother concubine, but I know that my father gave it to me for another purpose. ”

Su Jinyao was very smart, and after thinking about it, she immediately said, "Repeating the mistakes of the past? ”

"Yes." Of course, Gu Xuebin also understood that when he came back, everyone thought that he had come to take revenge. Avenge the murder of his mother's concubine.

Then the emperor gave him this mansion, ostensibly to give him some compensation, but in fact, it was to remind him not to repeat the mistakes made by his mother and concubine.

After a pause, Gu Xuebin said: "Jin Yao, before you left the capital last time, I was still in the dark, or I had just gotten a glimpse of the door, but I still couldn't learn the truth. But when my grandmother told me everything, I realized the true meaning of my father's handing over this place to me. ”

Su Jinyao could hear the helplessness and embarrassment in Gu Xuebin's words, in fact, he was just an ignorant and innocent person, but he had borne too much because of the mistakes made by his mother back then.

It's just that the son can never blame his mother, and the love between father and son is also endless.

Gu Xuebin was caught in it, and it was inevitable that he would feel tired.

"These people in the house?" Su Jinyao wanted to know why Gu Xuebin still let those who served his mother stay here back then, always putting on a respectful appearance.

Only then did Gu Xuebin loosen Su Jinyao's waist, picked her up and put her on his lap again as before, this time he directly pillowed his head on Su Jinyao's neck socket, and said, "I'm punishing them." ”

"I really don't see it." Su Jinyao flattened her mouth and said, "I think you are enjoying the feeling of being held high, this is the treatment that a real prince should have." ”

Gu Xuebin hooked his lips and smiled, and said: "Slaves are slaves, they like to be enslaved like dogs, and I will fulfill them."

”

Speaking of this, Gu Xuebin exhaled a long breath and said, "In fact, a large part of them were brought by my mother from the tribe back then, and they were my mother's intimate slaves. The others were accepted by the concubine after entering the palace, and they were all people who followed the concubine wholeheartedly. But I think that if they had comforted them earlier, or reminded them more, the mother would not have been wrong in the end. ”

Su Jinyao's brows also frowned, it is conceivable that even if some people have a lot of ideas in their hearts, they may not be able to dare to do it when it comes to the real time.

However, there are also people who don't have any special thoughts, but they can't stand the bewitchment and inducement of the people around them, so they step by step in the wrong direction.

It is estimated that Tuoba was such a woman back then, who obviously won the emperor's favor by virtue of her unparalleled beauty, but she still felt that it was not enough, and she felt threatened.

In addition, the people around her may be constantly giving her ideas, so she embarked on a road of no return, which indirectly affected Gu Xuebin, the eldest son of the emperor who should have been very developed.

In other words, a large part of the tragedy of Gu Xuebin's poisoning and forced to leave the palace was actually caused by Tuoba Yunji herself.

If she keeps to herself, serves the emperor conscientiously, takes care of her son, and raises the child well. I believe that with Gu Xuebin's intelligence and ability, he can not only sit more firmly on the throne of the prince, but also be filial to his mother.

At that time, Tuoba Yunji will be the real mother and son, and when Gu Xuebin succeeds to the throne, she will be the logical queen mother.

But who would have thought that it was obviously a good move, but he was stunned to let Tuoba Yunji rot, and finally ended up hollowing out his own death, and he also affected his son.

Since ancient times, I have only heard of "pit father", but I didn't expect this Yun Ji to be a real "pit son". Or is it a big pit, can Gu Xuebin not feel tired?

And these people were deliberately raised here by Gu Xuebin. Take people as a mirror, you can straighten up.

The emperor gave him this mansion to remind him that the posture of these people now calling for each other makes Gu Xuebin remember his past mistakes even more, and he will not easily make them again.

Su Jinyao also leaned on Gu Xuebin's arms and said softly: "However, you can't always punish yourself with past mistakes. ”

Su Jinyao now also understands why Gu Xuebin is standing outside the gate of this bright "Prince's Courtyard", and he looks like this when he accepts these people to bow down.

In fact, he is oppressing these people with momentum, so that they will not have the slightest idea to try to sway him, the master.

Gu Xuebin rubbed his head against Su Jinyao's head and said, "I'm not punishing myself, but there is another layer of meaning." Some of these people may be from the Tuoba clan, and if I let them back, I am afraid that the Tuoba clan will understand what my mother did back then. Although many years have passed, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not take advantage of the topic to play and give birth to other incidents. ”

It turned out that Gu Xuebin put these people under house arrest for life, so that they could not go back to tell right and wrong.

Just imagine, although the current Cloud Dome Country has not yet reached the level of "internal and external troubles", it has never been a country that is peaceful, peaceful and prosperous, but I am afraid that if there is a slight disturbance, those subject countries may unite with other forces to do something like "ants and elephants".

It's a reward for you

After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, Su Jinyao also figured it out. At this time, not only was she worried about Gu Xuebin, but in fact, she also felt that her situation was chaotic, no wonder Gu Xuebin felt tired.

But in other words, I guess this is the so-called major event. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now really like a prince, worrying about the country and the people.

Su Jinyao looked up at this luxurious and large living room, not wanting the good atmosphere of the two of them to be diluted by this old thing.

Su Jinyao patted Gu Xuebin's shoulder and said, "Don't think about it, isn't it a good form now?" I was hungry, so we hurried to get ready and have a meal together. I'll spend the New Year with you first. ”

Gu Xuebin straightened his waist, and had already pulled his emotions back from the chaotic form.

He pursed his thin lips and said with a smile: "Jinyao, it's good to have you by your side." All my troubles seemed to be relieved with the words, and my heart was much more spacious. ”

Su Jinyao touched Gu Xuebin's head again, and said with a smile: "I haven't untied your heart knot. I don't understand those national affairs, I just like to live at my own pace and at my own pace, and I don't want you to be confused by the distractions of the outside world. Believe me, we can all face it together. ”

"Silly girl." Gu Xuebin gently hugged Su Jinyao again and said, "This should be what I said." Jinyao, don't be too strong, I will protect you and make you the most carefree little woman. ”

"Hmph, I can't be idle, don't want to lock me up in your golden house, be your exclusive pet." Su Jinyao glared at Gu Xuebin, but her eyes were full of sweetness.

Su Jinyao unexpectedly found that she did not reject Gu Xuebin's mood of caring for her at all. Sometimes I even secretly feel that this is really happy.

When a person is tired and tired, there is always someone behind you to support you, let you stand firmly, or directly hug you into your arms and help you block all the wind and rain, how happy it is.

"What are you thinking?" Gu Xuebin scratched Su Jinyao's nose and asked gently.

He didn't know what this stupid girl was thinking, why could his words make her giggle stupidly for a long time?

Or did her own care really make this stupid girl stupid again? If that's the case...... That's nice.

He likes Su Jinyao's occasionally stupid and stupid appearance in front of him, which is something that only he can see, after fading away from the cold and strong, an uncute and defenseless Jinyao.

Happiness should be the feeling at this time. He looked at her, smiling, and kept guessing her thoughts.

When Su Jinyao came back to her senses, she looked up and saw Gu Xuebin's beautiful handsome face that could intoxicate the immortals, and looked at her with a doting and gentle smile.

Heartbeat, inexplicably accelerated. The palms of the hands were even more hot and sweaty.

Su Jinyao suddenly hugged Gu Xuebin's neck, smacked his lips fiercely, and bit lightly with his teeth before leaving, and then let go.

Gu Xuebin was bitten painfully and numb, and the tip of his heart trembled. But then the bosom was empty.

Su Jinyao had already jumped out of two steps, and said with a smile: "I was rewarded just now, don't think too much." I'm really hungry, so go and get someone to prepare food. ”

Gu Xuebin pressed two fingers on his lips with one hand, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he looked like he was smiling but not smiling, he was simply charming and demonic, and his eyes were even more affectionate when he looked at Su Jinyao. But he didn't say a word.

Su Jinyao was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips, and finally couldn't resist Gu Xuebin's appearance, and moved her steps forward a little, and then moved a little more.

And before she could stand firm in her second step, Gu Xuebin suddenly stretched out his hand, pulled Su Jinyao to his side, pressed the back of her head with one hand, tightly wrapped her waist with the other hand, and lowered his head to kiss it.

Su Jinyao didn't even have time to breathe, feeling that his mouth-lips were full of his domineering and gentle breath. The whole person floated up, and his body was as soft as a marshmallow.

In addition to clinging to Gu Xuebin's body to support herself, Su Jinyao seems to be unable to find a fulcrum at all.

After a long time, Gu Xuebin let go of Su Jinyao, tapped her red and tender lips with his fingertips, and said in a dumb voice: "This is a reward for you, I think about it, I'm also hungry." ”

"Hmph." How could Su Jinyao not hear the meaning of Gu Xuebin's words. This is clearly reminding her not to play with fire.

Su Jinyao twisted her body and broke free from Gu Xuebin's arms, now it was not safe to even take two steps away, Su Jinyao retreated four or five steps at once, stomped her feet and shouted: "Come on, prepare food." ”

Su Jinyao's voice is really good, and the housekeeper before doesn't know where it came from, in short, he has come to the door very quickly, and he still bows his waist with a cautious look, and says: "Back to the crown princess, lunch has already been prepared, and now I will order someone to send it." ”

After speaking, the manager raised his head to look at Gu Xuebin, who had already restrained his gentleness, supported his head with one hand and looked a little chilly, and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know what else to order?" ”

"No, the crown princess here will be in charge in the future. Whatever she tells her, she has to do it, and she has to do it well, you know? Gu Xuebin said in a deep voice.

"Yes." The attitude of this manager is really respectful.

Su Jinyao hadn't seen the emperor yet, and she didn't know what the chief manager around the emperor should look like.

However, in Su Jinyao's opinion at this time, it is estimated that the minions around the emperor are none of the doglegs in front of him.

Gu Xuebin didn't bother to say much, and waved his hand casually, signaling him to hurry up.

Su Jinyao turned around at this time, knowing that Gu Xuebin would not do anything else, so she took his hand and walked over to the table on the side.

Not long after the two of them sat down, there were maids and servants who started cooking one after another.

There are a lot of dishes, and a big table is set up, cold and hot, meat and vegetables, staple foods, and pastries are complete.

It's not much, it should be just enough for two people to eat.

Su Jinyao looked at the table of food and said, "It's really good, it's a little less." ”

Gu Xuebin smiled and explained: "I don't come often, and I don't come often to eat. Occasionally ask them to prepare, but it is all extravagant and wasteful, and they talk about pomp and circumstance. So I just told them to make less of everything so they could eat it. ”

After a pause, Gu Xuebin laughed twice and said, "Because they have been in the palace, they know the order and standard of preparing meals for the prince in the palace's imperial dining room, so every time I come, I do it according to that." But I didn't like it, and they wouldn't listen to it completely, so they had to change it to this in the end. ”

Lin Xiuqing's reaction

Only then did Su Jinyao know that the prince had many dishes at each meal, and he was still particular about what he ate first and then what he ate.
