Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, and his eyebrows rose: "I have this idea, but it's just a temporary idea, and I haven't had time to deploy it properly, so I haven't had time to tell you, I'm sorry." ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard him say this, she felt a little better in her heart, she nodded and said, "If you hide something from me next time, be careful that I want you to look good!" There was a threat in his tone.

If this was someone else, Xuanyuan Jingxi wouldn't even pay attention to it, but now the person who said this was Gu Ruoxi, he immediately nodded solemnly and said, "Okay!" Next time, I'll hide it from you, and I'll leave it to you! ”

"Really?" When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she started to think of teasing, she learned from the little ruffian she saw on TV, stretched out a finger, gently picked up Xuanyuan Jingxi's chin and said, "Come on!" Give the girl a smile on me! ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi actually showed a smile very cooperatively, and actually threw a wink at Gu Ruoxi.

Gu Ruoxi didn't hold back, so she burst out laughing!

……

Xuanyuan Yan returned to the palace all the way, and rushed to the imperial study without stopping, and when he saw the emperor, he immediately breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Tian'er, why did you enter the palace at this hour?" When the emperor saw him, he was immediately taken aback, since the last time the father and son broke up because they couldn't get along, Xuanyuan Yan hadn't come to see him for half a month, and the two of them didn't talk to each other much in the court, what's wrong with it today? The sun is coming out in the west?

"Son-in-law, see father!" Xuanyuan Yan knelt down and asked Ye.

"Get up! Why did you remember to enter the palace today? The Emperor asked.

Xuanyuan Yan stood up from the ground, glanced at the emperor, and when the words came to his mouth, he turned a corner: "Father, I heard that the third brother came back this time, and my father is going to choose a family for him?" Is it true? ”

Xuanyuan Yan ranked fourth among the princes, and Xuanyuan Yu was third, so in front of the emperor, he finally shouted 'third brother'.

"How did you know that?" When the emperor heard this, he was greatly surprised.

Xuanyuan Yan didn't answer and asked: "Father, don't ask Erchen how he knows, just tell Erchen whether this matter is true?" ”

The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at him, finally nodded, and said, "Yes." ”

Xuanyuan Yan's heart sank, but he couldn't help asking, "Which family's daughter is it?" May I ask my father, do you know your sons? ”

When the emperor heard this, he didn't answer for a long time, and after a long time, he said, "Tian'er, have you heard something?" ”

"Yes!" Xuanyuan Yan said loudly: "Erchen heard that Father, you plan to let the third brother marry the second lady of the Jinye Houfu family, right?" ”

"You know." When the emperor heard this, he sighed and asked, "Who told you this?" It can't be Yu'er, right? ”

"He's going to get married

The girl I've been thinking about is proud! How could you be willing to tell me about this? When Xuanyuan Yan heard this, he immediately sneered and said, "It was Ruoxi who told Erchen!" ”

"What? You went to see Miss Gu Er? When the emperor heard this, he was greatly surprised.

Xuanyuan Yan nodded and said, "Yes! That's what she told her son! ”

When the emperor heard this, the expression on his face became complicated.

Why did Xi'er tell Xuanyuan Yan about this and let him come to him? Could it be that she is unwilling to marry Xuanyuan Yu?

The emperor was shocked by this idea of his own, he remembered that when he was forced by the emperor to marry a woman he did not want to marry, the pain in his heart, and immediately thought in his heart, could it be that at this time, he also repeated the old path of the emperor, thinking that he was favored, but he pushed Xi'er to a man she didn't love?

Let her marry a man she doesn't love, then what happiness is there in this life?

The Emperor frowned deeply when he arrived.

Xuanyuan Yan saw the emperor's expression in his eyes, but he couldn't understand it at all, he considered his tone and said, "Father! The third emperor brother is a long-term talent, and he is also an outstanding among the princes, but Erchen thinks that he is not a good match for the second miss Gu! ”

"Then you say, who is the most suitable?" When the emperor heard this, he immediately asked.

"Miss, you mean, Aunt Su, they did it on purpose?" Mingxiang asked in surprise.

Gu Ruoxi nodded and said, "How secret is pregnancy, how can you listen to it easily?" This Aunt Sue. I just revealed this news, what is the purpose? As she spoke, she looked down in thought.

Mingxiang couldn't think of a reason, so she quietly retreated.

On this day, Gu Ruoxi stayed in the kitchen for two or three hours, and the result was five plates of fragrant dim sum, and when she brought these things out of the kitchen, Mingxiang and Liuli couldn't help but sniff.

"Yunduo, you put this plate of dim sum in a box and send it to the Queen Mother." Gu Ruoxi pointed to one of them.

"Yes! Miss! When Yun Duo heard this, she immediately smiled, and when she took the pastry, she couldn't help but be stunned: "Miss, it's so little." Don't you want to prepare some for the prince by the way? ”

"You have to have few things to look precious!" Gu Ruoxi smiled faintly and said, "Once the Queen Mother gets tired of eating it, will she still think of me in the future?" As she spoke, she took another plate and said, "This plate is for the prince, you can remember it!" If the prince doesn't eat it, you can bring it back to me, and you can't give it to the queen mother! ”

"Yes! Miss! Yun Duo immediately responded, took the two plates of pastries and began to pack them neatly.

Gu Ruoxi no longer paid attention to her, but picked up another plate of snacks and handed it to Liuli: "You send this to my father." ”

"Why didn't Miss deliver it herself?" Ruri blinked

Eye, Dao.

Gu Ruoxi listened, shook his head and said, "Today's situation is different, I can't go." ”

"Why is that?" Ruri was surprised.

Gu Ruoxi smiled lightly and said, "Have you forgotten what happened to Aunt Su just now?" If I go today, will I tell it or not? ”

"Miss is right!" Liuli nodded and said, "Master Hou has been resting in the study for the past few days. No one saw it, Aunt Su just wanted to tell Hou Ye the news of her pregnancy, but she didn't have a chance, the purpose of such a play she performed in our door today was to tell Hou Ye the news through the mouth of Miss! ”

"You're only half right." Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly and said, "Aunt Su's move is also an element of testing me, she is waiting to see if I will tell Mrs. Hou the news, and see if I am on the same front as her!" ”

"So, miss, what should we do?" Ruri listened to this. There was a hint of nervousness on his face: "Madame was locked up so easily, but don't have another Aunt Su to oppose us!" ”

"Respond to change with the same." When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she glanced sideways at Liuli and said, "It's just a little aunt, do I need to be afraid?" She's just a blade I'm going to use. Now, I'm just sharpening my knives. ”

Liuli had never seen her own young lady speak in such a tone, although her voice was low, but she suddenly felt a chill in her ears when she heard it.

But almost in an instant, Gu Ruoxi put away this fierce momentum, she took a plate of pastries from the table again and handed it to Mingxiang, and said, "You bring this to Jin Se!" Feed her bite by bite! You can rest assured, this papaya stew melts in your mouth and doesn't need to be chewed, Jinse can definitely eat it......"

Gu Ruoxi finished explaining the fragrance of Mingxiang, and looked back to see that Liuli was still standing in place. I couldn't help asking, "Why haven't you gone yet?" ”

"Miss! Slave and maid, go now! Only then did Liuli react, stepped forward and took the pastry and walked out.

Gu Ruoxi's voice came lazily from behind: "You go and come back quickly, there is a plate of pine nut cakes here, everyone can eat them together." ”

A smile suddenly overflowed on Liuli's lips, and she walked out with a faster pace.

……

When Xuanyuan Jingxi received the pastries, there was only one hour left before dark, he took the box and said in surprise: "Why are there two boxes?" ”

"Back to the prince, there is a box made by the young lady for you, and she also specially explained, if the prince doesn't like to eat, let the slave take it back!" The clouds bowed their heads in response.

Xuanyuan Jing smiled when he was on the road: "How can I not accept her wishes?" So saying, he sat back down at the table, and opened one of the boxes, and there was a saucer in it, on which there were only six crystal-clear snow-white pastries, cut squarely, and arranged in a beautiful plum blossom shape, and a red bean was placed on each piece, which was very attractive to look at.

"This craft is compared to the imperial kitchen

It's not much closer, no wonder the queen mother will never forget. Xuanyuan Jingxi smiled lightly, reached out and took a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, and a sweet taste immediately spread in his mouth.

Yun Duo is okay, Mo Yun who is guarding the door is already about to drool, he is an out-and-out big foodie, what the prince has here on weekdays, he is always indispensable, but today is different from the past, these pastries were made and sent by Miss Gu Er herself, he didn't dare to ask for it with a shy face, because maybe he would ask for a scolding.

Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Xuanyuan Jingxi unhurriedly picked up a piece of pastry again. He tasted it seriously, and he didn't mean to hurry at all, and when he finished eating two pieces, he saw that the clouds were still standing in front of him, and immediately raised his eyes and said, "What are you still doing here?" Go back and serve your young lady? ”

"Yes! Rajah! Yun Duo nodded, and returned in the night with an empty box.

Xuanyuan Jingxi finished eating the pastries, and got up with the remaining box to prepare to enter the palace, Mo Yun couldn't help but say on the side: "Lord, you eat so many sweets, do you want to let the imperial doctor ......?"

"I'm fine, do I need to go to the doctor?" Xuanyuan Jingxi turned his head and glared at Mo Yun fiercely and said, "Is the carriage ready?" ”

Mo Yun was glared at, and when he was stunned, he lowered his head and said, "It's been prepared a long time ago!" ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi crossed him and strode out.

Mo Yun muttered quietly behind him: "Obviously I don't like sweets, what can I do!" ”

It's a pity that Xuanyuan Jingxi has already gone far, otherwise, he will definitely go over and beat Mo Yun hard, and he will do it himself.

Early the next morning, Gu Ruoxi had just finished washing up and sat down at the dining table, and Mingxiang broke in.

"Miss! The high father-in-law in the palace is here! Come and invite the young lady into the palace! ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he was taken aback: "Father-in-law Gao? ”

This father-in-law Gao is the great eunuch next to the emperor, and he is here, does that prove that the person who wants to see her today is the emperor? Upper low bib.

Gu Ruoxi was surprised and puzzled in her heart, she really didn't know why this emperor always came to see her.

But before she could figure it out, Mingxiang had already come over and pulled her up: "Miss, what are you still rubbing?" That Father-in-law Gao is staying in the front hall at the moment, and the Hou Ye and his wife are accompanying him! Can't keep him waiting! “

Gu Ruoxi reluctantly glanced at the breakfast on the table, and said very regretfully: "It's a pity! I haven't had breakfast yet! ”

Mingxiang, who was changing her clothes, fainted a little, and the masters of other people's families were very excited when they heard that someone was summoned in the palace, but what was the matter with her young lady? I can't give up a table for breakfast!

"Miss! When you enter the palace, naturally they will prepare breakfast for you, why are you still worried about this? Liuli on the side asked.

Gu Ruoxi raised his eyes and glanced at them, sighed deeply and said, "Hey."

You guys are so naïve! Why do you think that I must have something to eat in the palace? The person who wants to see me is the emperor, he should still be in the early dynasty at this time, right? I'm going to have to wait at least an hour or two to see him, and in the meantime I'll have to wait, and who's going to prepare breakfast for me? I'm not the master of the palace! ”

Liuli thought about it too, and she immediately said, "Miss! The slave will go and prepare some pastries for you, and you will eat them on the way!" ”

"Clever!" Gu Ruoxi praised Liuli, and while she was talking, several girls changed her clothes again, her temples were also re-tied, and she looked up and down several times, and then pushed her out with satisfaction.

These days go to the palace every once in a while, Gu Ruoxi is too familiar with this process, and the familiarity makes her very depressed, what is wrong with these nobles? Why do you always have to see her as a little-known second lady?

In fact, Gu Ruoxi ignored one point, as the marriage date of Gu Yuetong, the eldest lady of the Gu family, and the prince was getting closer and closer, her name was also on the hot search list in the capital, and how many people were thinking about being able to climb relatives with Jinye Houfu, and she, the concubine, of course, became a piece of fragrant bait.

The fact that she had been engaged to marry before had already been selectively ignored by everyone.

Even Miss Liang, who was engaged to Prince Min, can remarry, why can't Gu Ruoxi?

Of course, Gu Ruoxi didn't know all this.

Until she sat on the chariot entering the palace, she was still thinking about why the emperor summoned her, and at this moment, she suddenly remembered the words that Xuanyuan Jingxi said in her ear when she was parting yesterday.

He said, "Remember, if the emperor summons you to the palace tomorrow, you can say whatever you think in your heart." I'm waiting for you. ”

What does this mean? Could it be that at that time, Xuanyuan Jingxi had already expected that the emperor would summon her?

Gu Ruoxi sat in the chariot, rubbing the handkerchief in his hand unconsciously with both hands, but the expression on his face became more and more solemn. Liuli brought out a few pastries for her in her purse, but she didn't eat a single bite.

Half an hour later, she was taken to the side hall of the Qianqing Palace by her father-in-law Gao.

"Second Miss Gu, the emperor hasn't come down yet, how about you wait here for a while?" Gao Gonggong smiled and said, "You must not have breakfast yet, so let the minions prepare it." ”

"There is Father-in-law Lao." Gu Ruoxi hurriedly said.

Gao Gonggong glanced at her with a smile, turned around and retreated.

Gu Ruoxi sat there and didn't wait for a while, then a palace maid rushed in, and set up a table full of breakfast in the side hall, Gu Ruoxi was really hungry, and she was not polite, the palace people came to invite, she obediently sat at the table and feasted.

After breakfast, she sat there bored, but suddenly came across a book in her hand.

You can still see books in this place, Gu Ruoxi was a little surprised, she picked up the book curiously, but saw that the title page of the book was blank, and the page was still a little yellow, she looked at the contents at random,

But I saw that the handwriting inside was timeless and delicate, very neat, like a book copied by a young lady.

She was about to look at it again, when she suddenly heard a calm voice say, "Does it feel familiar?" ”

Gu Ruoxi looked up sharply, but saw that the person who was talking was the emperor.

"Courtiers see the emperor!" Gu Ruoxi hurriedly put down the book in his hand, knelt down and asked the emperor for a leaf.

"Get up! No need to be polite! The emperor waved his hand, his eyes fixed on Gu Ruoxi's face, followed by the book she put on the table, he walked over, slowly sat down where Gu Ruoxi was sitting just now, picked up the book in her hand and glanced at it and said, "What do you see?" ”

Gu Ruoxi covered her fright, bowed her head and said: "Back to the emperor, the courtiers just picked up the book, and they haven't had time to read the ......."

When the emperor heard this, a smile appeared on his lips: "Really? But I see that you have already seen the words inside? Say, how does it feel? ”

Hell knows what it feels like!

Gu Ruoxi rolled her eyes speechlessly in her heart, and responded: "Back to the emperor's words, this word is timeless and beautiful, it looks like it is written by a woman......"

"Of course it was written by a woman, don't you know whose words it is?" The Emperor suddenly spoke playfully.

"Please forgive the courtiers for being stupid, I don't know who wrote it." Gu Ruoxi replied in a low voice.

The Emperor lowered his eyes and looked at her, and said, "That's your mother's handwriting." ”

As soon as Gu Ruoxi heard this, she was stunned, her mother? Is it Mrs. Jinye Hou, or Ding Minshu, the second lady of Ding back then?

The Emperor looked at her in surprise. He said, "You should take a good look at this book." "I wanted to go to the world to find this book, but it fell into his hands, which has always been the emperor's proudest point, and now, facing Gu Ruoxi, he suddenly wanted Gu Ruoxi to take a look at this book with his own eyes.
