Chapter 5: The Night Feast (1)
Risheng stared at her in some surprise, but still replied seriously, "The maid doesn't know much!"
Gu Zhaoyan pulled her back, "Come and talk about it!"
Risheng was a little embarrassed, "Miss, it's not polite to talk about foreign men privately!"
Gu Zhaoyan put a finger on his lips and said with a smile, "I won't say it!" What would you say?"
Risheng was entangled for a moment, "Miss, you can't call King Su by his name. Gu Zhaoyan smiled and nodded, as if he knew his mistakes and changed them.
"His Royal Highness King Shu is a legendary figure, when he was twelve years old, he was drunk in the Immortal Pavilion with a song 'Xiyan drunk', and he was famous in Wujing. In the thirteenth year, Lan Yun, the third prince of Lan Ruo, came to attack, and the king repaired a letter, and persuaded Lan Yun, the third prince of Lan Ruo, to withdraw from the army and sign a ten-year truce; When he was fourteen years old, he succeeded him as the king of the dream, but since then, rumors have spread that he has a hidden disease, and he rarely appears in the eyes of the public. ”
Gu Zhaoyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twisted unconsciously, in this way, his illness should be related to what happened when he was fourteen years old, thinking about this, and asked, "Did something else happen to him when he was fourteen!"
Risheng was about to open his mouth to answer, but he heard someone at the door, "Miss, the clouds beside Mrs. Xue are here, and they have brought you clothes and accessories for tomorrow's night's banquet, please take a look!"
Gu Zhaoyan got up and went out, a smile on the corner of his lips, "Thank you, madam, let Madame do the work!" Yun'er bowed over her. Risheng leaned over slightly and took the clothes, "I'm tired of Miss Yun'er." Gardenia, send Miss Yun'er! The voice is neither high nor low, neither humble nor arrogant, Gu Zhaoyan looked at Risheng, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.
Seeing this, Yun'er hurriedly leaned over and returned the salute, "Don't dare to bother!" The little girl named Gardenia immediately followed Yun'er and sent her out of the yard.
Gu Zhaoyan clasped her hands on her chest, it seemed that Risheng's origin was not small, Yun'er didn't dare to accept her salute, so it seemed that she was more relaxed! After finishing the things that the master explained in this way, she still wants to return to Guiqi Mountain, here, after all, it is not suitable for her to stay.
She stretched, "No, I'm so sleepy, Risheng, I'll take care of the rest!" ”
Risheng looked at her tired expression, knowing that she was really tired, and nodded, "The maid will take care of it!" ”
Gu Zhaoyan turned around and entered the room, almost falling asleep with his head next to the pillow, and even forgot to cover the quilt. When Risheng entered the house, he saw Gu Zhaoyan lying on his side on the bed, curled up slightly, sighed in his heart, and reached out to cover her with the quilt.
Gu Zhaoyan didn't know how long she had been asleep, and when she woke up, it was already a silver glow. Seeing that she was awake, Risheng asked, "Miss, do you want to pass dinner!" Gu Zhaoyan rubbed his eyebrows and snorted.
Risheng slapped his hands three times towards the door, and someone rushed in with a food plate. Gu Zhaoyan watched them arrange the dishes one by one, then stood aside with her hands down, she couldn't help but have a headache, she didn't have the habit of being watched by people when she ate, so she waved her hand, "You guys go down and rest!" “
When everyone heard this, they forgot about Risheng helplessly, and when they saw Risheng nodding, they retreated one after another!
Gu Zhaoyan walked to the table and sat down, Risheng took the bowl for her with chopsticks, and whispered, "Miss, you should have had dinner with Mrs. Xiangye tonight, but no matter how the maid screams, she can't wake you up, so Xiangye will let you eat in the room." “
Hearing the slight reproach in her voice, Gu Zhaoyan was a little helpless, and pulled her to sit down on the stool next to her, "I know." Reaching out and taking the bowl in her hand, "I'll just come by myself, you can eat too!" ”
Risheng immediately stood up, "It's not right! Masters and servants are not allowed to sit at the same table! Stretching out his hand, he was about to snatch the bowl in Gu Zhaoyan's hand, "I'll make vegetables for you!" ”
Gu Zhaoyan waved his hand, "I'll do it myself!" As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks and ate by himself, and said vaguely, "Sit down, I can't eat while you're standing." Seeing that Risheng refused to sit down, Gu Zhaoyan put down the dishes and chopsticks and pulled her to sit down, "Risheng, my father pointed you over to wait for me, then you are a person from my courtyard, since you are a person from my courtyard, you should listen to me, I said sit down, you shouldn't stand." ”
Risheng was stunned, and it wasn't until Gu Zhaoyan stuffed the chopsticks into her hand that she came back to her senses and was about to put it down, but saw Gu Zhaoyan staring at her, so she had to respond in a low voice.
Gu Zhaoyan continued to eat, and from time to time she gave Risheng a chopstick she felt delicious, at first, she was so scared that Risheng almost lost the bowl, so after a few times, she slowly got used to it, and tangled up the dinner.
After Gu Zhaoyan finished eating, he moved a chair and sat under the plum tree in the courtyard to admire the moon and blow the wind. Ri Sheng stood behind her and reminded in a low voice, "Miss, you must not be so casual outside, you are the concubine of the Gu Mansion, your words and deeds represent the entire Gu Mansion, tomorrow's night banquet, you must not make a mistake, otherwise, you will soon be famous in Wujing." ”
Gu Zhaoyan folded his hands behind his head and replied in a low voice, "Okay, I remember!" I just don't like this lifestyle! ”
Ri Sheng looked at her extraordinarily soft face under the moonlight, and unconsciously softened her tone, "Miss, many times, you can't do as you like, but in this Zhaoyue Pavilion, you can be your own." ”
Gu Zhaoyan looked at Risheng and said softly, "Was it ordered by my father?" ”
Risheng nodded, looked at Gu Zhaoyan, and said seriously, "Xiangye loves Miss very much." “
Gu Zhaoyan was silent, how could she not feel it, but she just felt that if there were too many fetters, people would be selfish.
Risheng was also silent. She was cultivated by Xiangye, named Waiting for Gu Zhaoyan, in fact, she is actually the symbol of Gu's concubine, because she has a golden hairpin that symbolizes Gu's concubine, which was given to Gu's concubine by Emperor Wu in the early years, and Gu Qifeng handed over the golden hairpin to her for safekeeping. For so many years, Mrs. Xue secretly didn't know how many times she had asked Gu Qifeng, but he never let go, and only gave Gu Zhao the name of her daughter-in-law, but did not confirm her identity as a daughter-in-law. She even thought that this golden hairpin might only be sealed, but she didn't expect to be suddenly pointed out to Zhaoyue Pavilion today, and the moment she saw Gu Zhaoyan, she knew that this was the reason why Gu Qifeng didn't point her out to Gu Zhaolian for a long time, because it was really too similar.
On the second day, Gu Zhaolian was woken up by Risheng early in the morning, closed his eyes and finished freshening up, and had some breakfast casually. And so began the long preparations for the night feast!
