The two sisters talked in the ancestral hall for most of the day before they came out, and Gu Shuyuan saw that the two were reconciled, so he didn't ask for details, and the matter was overturned.

It was night, Gu Jiuge was sitting in front of the window in a daze.

What has Gu Lisheng become now? Have you become a man who can take charge of himself?

"Miss, what do you want?" Seeing that she was so distracted, Huiqiu walked forward slowly and asked softly. Since leaving the ancestral hall, Gu Jiuge's face has always been bad, as if he has something on his mind.

"Eaki, I miss my brother." She lowered her head and muttered, her eyes were very sour, but she couldn't shed tears.

Huiqiu and the others didn't expect that she would suddenly mention Gu Lisheng, and they didn't know what to do for a while. Back then, Gu Jiuge didn't know why she was disgusted with Gu Lisheng in every way, and it was not okay for them to mention this name in front of her. For five years, Gu Jiuge never asked about Gu Lisheng.

Huiqiu knew that she was sad in her heart, and held her hand lightly: "What a demeanor the eldest young master is, now he is guarding his family and defending the country on the battlefield, and he is a real good son." He would have been happy if he had known that you were thinking of him, Miss. ”

Gu Jiuge sighed lightly, his eyes darkened, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Huachun stood obediently to the side, she was no more delicate than Huiqiu, she was sharp-toothed, and she didn't know how to comfort people. She looked down and played with the handkerchief in her hand, and suddenly her eyes lit up.

"By the way, Miss, the master said today, it's about to be your birthday, and you have to have a good time then. Let those who don't have long eyes see what our Miss Xiangfu looks like! ”

When Gu Jiuge heard this, the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, and he didn't say anything.

In the blink of an eye, it was Gu Jiuge's birthday, and the Prime Minister's Mansion held a banquet to entertain everyone, and the battle was so big that it did not lose the scene in the palace. This is enough to see how important Gu Jiuge occupies in Gu Shuyuan's heart.

Around the hour, the people who came to congratulate came to the prime minister's house one after another. Gu Jiuge was too lazy to deal with this, so he nested in the small garden of drinking songs and didn't go out, but only ordered Huiqiu to wait in the flower hall, and when he met Situ Luo and Zhao Qianqian, he led him directly to her courtyard.

"Cousin, I see that the ninth princess is also here. She has always been at odds with you, and this visit must not be as simple as celebrating your birthday. As soon as Zhao Qianqian entered the door, she took Gu Jiuge's arm and pouted and said, the last time Xuan Jing embarrassed Gu Jiuge like that at the empty door, she saw it all in her eyes. Moreover, Mu Liang also helped Gu Jiuge punish her, it was hard to guarantee that she would not hold a grudge and wait for an opportunity to retaliate.

Seeing her indignant appearance, Gu Jiuge gently pinched her bulging little face, "It's okay, with so many dignitaries and dignitaries present today, she still has to care about face." What's more, I just don't mess with her. ”

"That's not for sure, just last time, what did you do to get in her way? It's not like I've been whipped twice for nothing! She's a spoiled person, with no rational rules to speak of. Situ Luo also shook his head and said, mentioning Xuan Jing also scoffed.

"Okay, okay, today is the joy of my birthday, what are you talking about!" Gu Jiuge took the hands of the two and said comfortingly, the two didn't want to block her, so they gave up.

The three of them talked and laughed in the room, so discordant.

Hua Chun hurriedly ran in, because his steps were too fast, and he almost stumbled.

"What's going on? What are you doing in such a panic? Gu Jiuge hurriedly helped her up, looked at her and asked reproachfully.

Hua Chun swallowed his saliva anxiously, wiped the sweat on his face, was so anxious that he was about to cry, and choked up and said: "The ninth princess is messing around again, Miss, go and take a look." ”

As soon as they heard her say this, the three sisters exchanged a look, and then walked towards the flower hall without delay.

Before the three of them approached the flower hall, they heard Xuan Jing's angry voice coming from inside.

"Your eldest lady is a precious lady! This princess kindly came to congratulate her on her birthday, but she was good, she hid in the house and didn't come out to greet her, didn't she see anyone? Xuan Jing shook the whip in her hand and said loudly, Huiqiu knelt on the ground and lowered her eyes respectfully, but she didn't dare to confront her.

She had a bloody whiplash on her back, apparently freshly beaten.

"Her Royal Highness the princess is angry, our young lady didn't know that Her Royal Highness the princess was coming, so she didn't come out to greet her, and please don't be angry." Huiqiu explained with a small face, and the people around her also recognized it when they heard it.

Everyone knows that Xuan Jing and Gu Jiuge are incompatible, where did she think that she would come to the door to congratulate Gu Jiuge on her birthday? She is angry like this now, obviously she is using the topic to play and vent her anger at the gate of the palace last time she was punished by Mu Liang!

"Dare to quibble? Are you blaming Princess Ben? Could it be that when this princess came to this prime minister's mansion, she had to hand over the prayer post a day in advance, and she Gu Jiuge's consent before she could come in! Xuan Jing said that he was about to raise the whip again, and Gu Jiuge took three steps and made two steps to rush over.

I don't know where Gu Jiuge got the strength, so he intercepted the whip she threw over and helped Huiqiu block it. Seeing Gu Jiuge come out, Xuan Jing showed a smug look on her face, and pulled the whip back with force.

Because of the friction of the whip, Gu Jiuge's tender palm suddenly had a bloody mark.

"The courtiers have lost their welcome, and I ask Her Royal Highness the princess to forgive me." As if he didn't feel the scars of his injury, Gu Jiuge calmly saluted and asked for peace.

"Kneel down and admit your mistakes, and this princess will forgive you."

She clasped her hands in front of her chest, looked at Gu Jiuge condescendingly and said arrogantly. But her voice fell for a long time, but she saw Gu Jiuge still standing there with her back straight. Listening to the discussion of everyone, her face became more and more unbearable.

"Gu Jiuge, today the emperor's uncle was left in the palace by his father, but no one will help you! If you kneel down and apologize today, forget it, otherwise, don't blame Princess Ben for ruining your birthday party! ”

A naked threat, she said it so justifiably.

"Big sister, you don't have to be strong, hurry up and apologize to the ninth princess. The prince is not here today, if you annoy the ninth princess, who will support you! Gu Qinglai also said with added vinegar.

It's just that her words are really disgusting, implying that her relationship with Mu Liang is unclear, as if Gu Jiuge will die without Mu Liang!

"If Her Royal Highness the princess is angry, the courtiers will order someone to send the princess back to the palace, so as not to get angry here, but the courtiers are not." Gu Jiuge raised her eyes and said coldly, she said it tactfully, but everyone understood it.

Gu Jiuge is giving an eviction order.

"You! Gu Jiuge, how dare you! ”

In front of so many people being disgraced, Xuan Jing couldn't bear it anymore, new hatred and old hatred came to her heart together, where could she manage so much now, she just wished that she could take Gu Jiuge's little face!

She took two steps back, and with all her strength, the whip whipped with a rage. With such a close distance and such a ruthless force, if it was really pumped on Gu Jiuge's face, I was afraid that this face that turned all beings upside down would be completely ruined.

At that moment, it was as if time had slowed down.

Xuan Jing's expression was hideous and proud, Gu Qinglai was also full of anticipation, as for Gu Qingxue, she was even more excited, if Gu Jiuge was also disfigured, then she would be happy and couldn't sleep.

At the last moment, a dagger flew from outside the door, with enough strength, cutting Xuan Jing's whip straight and sticking it deep into the table.

Everyone gasped in shock and retreated, not daring to make a sound.

Gu Jiuge turned his head suddenly, only to see a black figure flashing by. Gu Jiuge could be sure that Fang was the one who saved herself, and she was even more sure that this person was definitely not Nantian or Mu Liang!

"Gu Jiuge! How dare you cut my whip! ”

There was a crazy roar like Xuan Jing in his ears, but Gu Jiuge acted as if he hadn't heard anything, his feet were weak, and he immediately chased after coming back to his senses. I don't know why, but there has always been a voice in her head, telling her that she must chase it out!

The black shadow was running extremely fast, and he seemed to be familiar with the terrain of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Gu Jiuge used all his strength to speed up his steps, but the man still disappeared around the corner.

It disappeared cleanly, as if it had never appeared.

The sun was getting higher, Gu Jiuge only felt a terrible headache, her head became more and more dizzy, the surrounding scenery slowly rotated, and she fell straight to the ground in front of her.

Seeing this scene, the man in black came out again and helped Gu Jiu Ge up.

Gu Jiuge felt someone approaching and grabbed his arm, but after seeing that face clearly, the look of disappointment was palpable.

She had thought ......

"Miss, are you alright?" The man in black opened his mouth and asked respectfully, he had dark skin and a strong posture, which was completely different from those pampered young masters in the royal city, and the whole person carried an aura that no one should approach.

It's like ...... So like! How could it not be?

Gu Jiuge suddenly burst into tears, she thought it was Gu Lisheng, but it turned out that she was thinking too much. She was so ruthless five years ago, presumably Gu Lisheng didn't care about her sister for a long time, how could she come back suddenly?

When the man in black saw Gu Jiuge crying, he panicked.

"Who are you? Why save me? Gu Jiuge held back his tears and raised his eyes and asked.

"Entrusted by the master, the eldest lady takes care, and her subordinates are one step ahead." He arched his hand and said, this posture is very similar to a soldier coming down from the battlefield, but the person in front of him is clearly not Gu Lisheng.

He got up and left, and as he acted, a purse fell to the ground, along with a letter.

"My sister Jiu Ge personally enlightened."

Gu Jiuge read word by word, and in just a few words, it made her throat hoarse, as if she had been worn by sand.

"You're my brother's man!" Gu Jiuge grabbed the hem of his clothes, there was no news for five years, precipitating a lifetime of guilt and longing, and she was almost heartbroken at this moment.

Song Qing saw that his identity was revealed, and he hesitated for a while but left quickly.

Gu Jiuge opened the letter with trembling hands, and the tough and familiar handwriting slowly appeared in front of him.

"Ge'er, guess what gift my brother has prepared for you this year......"

After reading the letter, Gu Jiuge had already cried into tears, she only thought that Gu Lisheng had never read her in five years, but she never thought that he would send Song Qing back to send letters and gifts on every birthday in the past five years. It's just that he also has some scruples, he is afraid that Gu Jiuge will still hate him, so he never dares to let Song Qing show up, and he never dares to send those letters and gifts to her.
