Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at her with sparkling eyes, and said with a smile: "I originally did these things by myself, and it is impossible to explain them to the maids after getting married, you can't expect this to be extravagant!" ”

Why is that? It's not in order! When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he immediately asked.

Xuanyuan Jingxi smiled and scratched her, and said with a smile: "First, I'm used to it, and second, I'm afraid that you will be jealous, so I'm so miserable!" As he spoke, when Gu Ruoxi finished buttoning the button, he took her hand and walked out of the back room.

Amber Liuli and the others all stood outside with a smile on their faces, the basin, towel, pancreas and other things were ready, this time Xuanyuan Jingxi didn't need anyone's help, so he went over to wash himself. Subsequently, he went to Jinghong Courtyard with Gu Ruoxi.

Breakfast and lunch did not catch up, so dinner naturally had to be eaten together.

For this reunion dinner, Aunt Xu has ordered someone to prepare it for a day, and when Xuanyuan Jingxi, Gu Ruoxi and others arrived, everything in the main hall had already been arranged.

Everyone was polite, and they all sat down.

Xuanyuan Jingxi sat on the top, Gu Ruoxi sat beside him, Aunt Xu and Gu Chengye accompanied the prime minister, not only that, but even Amber Liuli and others were also on the table, and several mothers-in-law with heads and faces around Aunt Xu were also seated.

According to Aunt Xu's words, it is to make the big guys lively.

In this way, everyone sat at a large table.

When Gu Ruoxi saw this scene, she was very grateful to Aunt Xu, this woman is always unknown, but she is always careful and thoughtful in her work, she can consider everything she is worried about, and she is very thoughtful, and now she is noble in the Hou Mansion, which is not accidental.

Gu Chengye is thirteen years old this year, sitting next to Aunt Xu is already a half-sized young man, studying outside all the year round has not stopped his physical development, a young man who is only a teenager, but he has long hands and long feet, and he admires the man with strong skills.

Gu Ruoxi vaguely remembered that when Gu Xiaoye came back from the border pass, Gu Chengye asked him to teach him martial arts with admiration, but at that time, Gu Xiaoye ruthlessly refused. Now, when Xuanyuan Jingxi came, Gu Chengye looked at Xuanyuan Jingxi with admiration again, his eyes were full of worship.

This kid really doesn't give up! Isn't it good to be a reader?

Gu Ruoxi felt a little emotional, but she also knew that practicing martial arts was not a bad thing, so she said: "Chengye, what have you been looking at the prince?" Want him to teach you martial arts? ”

"yes!" When Gu Chengye heard this, he nodded hurriedly, turned his head and glanced at Xuanyuan Jingxi cautiously and said, "Second brother-in-law, is it okay?" ”

Just this simple sentence of brother-in-law instantly made Xuanyuan Jingxi's heart happy, and he also liked such a boy with good eyes, and immediately nodded and responded: "Okay!" Brother-in-law can teach you, but practicing martial arts requires a lot of hardship, are you afraid? ”

"Chengye is not afraid!" Gu Chengye hurriedly responded. say

, picked up the wine glass on the table and said, "Second brother-in-law, junior brother toasts you!" As he spoke, he threw his head up.

"Good!" Xuanyuan Jingxi picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all.

Aunt Xu smiled from ear to ear and said, "Come on, come on!" Everyone eats vegetables! ”

This Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, because of Xuanyuan Jingxi, was also very lively.

After the meal, the servants came in and cleaned up the table, and served melon seeds, snacks and tea, and everyone sat in the room and chatted.

And Gu Chengye became familiar with Xuanyuan Jingxi because of a meal, and after the meal, he had the courage to invite him to go to the courtyard with him to compete a few tricks, Xuanyuan Jingxi agreed, but Aunt Xu hurriedly came out to stop: "How can you compete in martial arts during this New Year?" This is unlucky! Forget it!

As he spoke, he smiled apologetically at Xuanyuan Jingxi and said, "Lord Wang, I'm really sorry......"

"Madam, you don't have to blame yourself, this king didn't take this matter to heart," he said, turned his head and glanced at Gu Chengye who was full of regret and said, "If there is a chance in the future, this king will discuss with you." ”

"That second brother-in-law must not forget!" When Gu Chengye heard this, he was immediately overjoyed.

Xuanyuan Jingxi nodded and said with a smile: "I won't forget it." ”

Gu Chengye really admired Xuanyuan Jingxi, even if he couldn't compete, he was reluctant to leave, but pestered Xuanyuan Jingxi, asking him to play a game of chess with him.

Aunt Xu knew that Xuanyuan Jingxi had slept for a day today, and he and Gu Ruoxi had not had a chance to stay together, so when she heard this, she hurriedly persuaded: "Chengye!" Come here, my mother will play chess with you! ”

"No! My mother always loses when she plays chess, and it's not fun at all! Gu Chengye retorted even when he opened his mouth.

Aunt Xu immediately glared at him.

Gu Chengye has always been afraid of his mother, even if he was frightened when he saw this, he turned his head timidly to Xuanyuan Jingxi and said, "Second brother-in-law, you should accompany the second sister!" I'm going to play chess with my mother. ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi actually wanted to agree, the next game of chess will not waste much effort, it is nothing, but since Aunt Xu has already said so, he will not agree anymore, so he has to say to Gu Chengye who is full of regret: "Chengye, although your second brother-in-law and my chess skills are not top-notch, but ordinary people can't deal with it, you practice with your wife first, and when you are free, let's play another game!" ”

"Thank you, second brother-in-law!" When Gu Chengye heard this, he immediately smiled and said.

Xuanyuan Jingxi nodded and smiled.

"Lord, Miss, Madam, fireworks are going off outside, do you want to go out and have a look!" At this moment, a maid suddenly came in outside the hall and reported with a smile.

Aunt Xu immediately turned her head to Gu Ruoxi: "Miss, look at ......" Tudao Pingba.

"Then let's all go out and have a look! Anyway, I want to be happy for the New Year. Gu Ruoxi said with a smile.

Everyone nodded, after the tragedy half a year ago, there had been no such joyful event in the house for a long time.

Soon, the four rooms of the Hung Courtyard

The doors were all opened, and everyone came to the door, and looked up at the clusters of fireworks that rose in the night sky.

In the crowd, Xuanyuan Jingxi looked up at the fireworks with a smile and quietly held Gu Ruoxi's hand.

Gu Ruoxi glanced back at him with a smile and said in a low voice, "It's the first time we've watched fireworks together!" ”

"Is it pretty?" Xuanyuan Jingxi asked in a low voice.

"Of course it's pretty!" Gu Ruoxi nodded immediately, at this moment, she finally put aside the matter of Jinye Hou and was no longer sad.

Xuanyuan Jingxi smiled at her.

After watching the fireworks, it was already late, and everyone dispersed, and Gu Ruoxi and Xuanyuan Jingxi returned to Zhiyuan Courtyard hand in hand.

"If you're tired, go back and rest early." Gu Ruoxi glanced at Xuanyuan Jingxi and said.

"Are you tired?" Xuanyuan Jingxi asked rhetorically.

Gu Ruoxi shook his head and sighed: "No, I'm not tired, I haven't been so happy for a long time, and I can't sleep yet." ”

"Then I won't be able to sleep even more." Xuanyuan Jingxi smiled: "I slept all day during the day today. ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, it looks like you're going to lose sleep tonight, but if conditions permit, you should go to bed early!" It's not a good habit to turn day and night upside down. ”

"Yes, listen to you." Xuanyuan Jingxi immediately replied.

Gu Ruoxi glanced at him, and commanded Yun Duo who was probing his brain at the door: "Go and prepare some boiling water, and I will sit with the prince and talk about things." ”

"Miss, how tasteless the white water is! The slave maid will make you a pot of strong tea! When Yun Duo heard this, he immediately took matters into his own hands.

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he shook his head again and again and said, "Don't, don't dare to drink strong tea at night, otherwise you will lose sleep at night, so you have to boil water!" ”

"Yes! Miss! Yun Duo hurriedly answered, then turned his head and retreated.

Gu Ruoxi said to Xuanyuan Jingxi: "Since you can't sleep, let's analyze the current situation!" ”

"Well, that's exactly what I wanted." Xuanyuan Jingxi said, and sat down on the chair opposite her.

After a while, Yun Duo really brought a pot of boiling water up, Gu Ruoxi specially checked it, and then sent her to retreat, and ordered: "Amber and Liuli have also rested early, and we don't need anyone to serve here." ”

"Yes, Miss!" Yun Duo immediately responded, but said, "But Sister Amber can't rest, she took people out on patrol." ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she immediately said, "You tell her to patrol around and come back quickly to rest, don't be tired." ”

The clouds nodded, and retreated.

Only then did Gu Ruoxi ask, "What is the situation between the DPRK and China now?" ”

"The situation of the crown prince being the only one has been gradually broken, Prince Lian, the third prince, and the fourth prince have each increased their power, and their strength is equal." Xuanyuan Jingxi said in a deep voice: "But there is me and Lian."

The prince secretly helped each other, and the three princes had a better chance of winning. ”

Gu Ruoxi heard this. He pondered for a moment and said: "Even so, but the third prince is not the crown prince after all, in case the emperor dies one day, it is not justified for him to ascend the throne......"

"You are worried about this too early, the imperial brother is strong, if anything happens to him, it will be at least ten years later." When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he immediately smiled helplessly and said, "For such a long time, I am confident enough to pull Xuanyuan Yan off the throne of the crown prince, don't worry!" ”

"It's been too long, I can't wait." When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "What's more, my father's death was planned by the emperor himself behind his back. He still wants Ye Ye Yiyi to die of old age? Dream! ”

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he raised his eyebrows, and immediately asked, "Then, what do you mean to ......?"

"The crown princess and I have been planning for a long time!" Gu Ruoxi said in a deep voice: "The emperor must die!" ”

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he looked at her face that was faintly suppressing anger, and couldn't help but persuade: "Xi'er, it's better to take revenge in the long run, you two are taking risks......"

"Afraid of what?" When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he immediately sneered: "The crown princess and I won't do it personally!" Even if it fails. It's not our head to blame! ”

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he couldn't help but ask worriedly, "How sure are you?" I tell you beforehand that the royal brother is a very suspicious man, even though he has seen you differently because of your mother's affairs. But once he perceives what you are thinking, he will kill you mercilessly! I don't allow you to take such a risk! As he spoke, he grabbed Gu Ruoxi's hand and said solemnly: "Father-in-law's revenge, I'll take revenge!" Believe me, I have a way......"

"Nope! I have received your wishes, but this matter is still for me and the crown princess to do. Gu Ruoxi shook his head and said with a sneer: "How did the emperor use Gu Xiaoye to kill my eldest brother in the first place, today, we will give him an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth!" ”

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he was immediately taken aback: "You, you want to ......"

"That's right! There must be a way to deal with the emperor, and my method is what you think in your heart! Gu Ruoxi said in a deep voice.

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he stared at her deeply, hugged her into his arms with a little bit of Buye, and said, "Xi'er." You don't want to think about it, what if the crown princess defects? In that case, not only will we lose everything, but we will also lose our lives! ”

"No, it won't! This is already underway. Gu Ruoxi said in a deep voice: "Gu Yuetong, she has no way out, she can only do what I have arranged, otherwise she will be crushed!" If I didn't have enough trust in her, I wouldn't have given her such an important thing to do. ”

As she spoke, she sighed and said, "Actually, this matter can only be done by her, and we have nothing to do about it." ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this

In fact, he already understood what Gu Ruoxi's plan was, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with her doing this, but he felt sorry for her that she still had to deal with these cumbersome things until this time.

It seems that they have to work harder!

"Such a big thing. Prince Lian, does he know? Xuanyuan Jingxi asked in a deep voice.

Gu Ruoxi shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, I want to see if the crown princess will tell him." "Dirt Island Formation.

"I don't think there should be, otherwise, Xuanyuan Shu will not agree to let Gu Yuetong take such a big risk, if he is not careful, this will be a catastrophe!" Xuanyuan Jingxi sighed.

"But if we succeed, we can not only avenge my father, but also eradicate the emperor and the crown prince in one fell swoop, and no one will stop us from being together!" Gu Ruoxi said in a deep voice: "So, we have to do this!" ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at Gu Ruoxi's resolute expression, and did not doubt her determination on this matter at all, he sighed: "Xi'er, these things should have been done by men, but now you and the crown princess have taken it together, which makes us very embarrassed......

"Whoever is most advantageous will do it, and it is not limited to men and women." Hearing this, Gu Ruoxi stretched out his hand to hold Xuanyuan Jingxi's thick palm and put it in his arms, Ye Fu said: "You don't have to be ashamed, there are more places where you and Prince Lian will be used in the future, such as the queen and the fourth prince, the power of these two people should not be underestimated, you must be very careful." ”

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he hurriedly replied: "Don't worry, I will think of ways to deal with them." ”

Gu Ruoxi immediately showed a shallow smile on his lips and said: "I really hope that this will pass quickly, I want to live a peaceful life, and I don't want to go through this anymore." ”

"Me too." Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, nodded and said, "Don't worry, this day will not be too far away." ”

……

At this moment, in the palace, all the princes and concubines, plus the queen mother, gathered in the Qianqing Palace to participate in the annual annual banquet.

The emperor sat in the top position, drinking and drinking with red light, laughing with the concubines, and occasionally asking a few words to his sons, showing the extravagance and obscenity of an emperor vividly.

Gu Yuetong sat next to the crown prince, and finally had the opportunity to see Xuanyuan Shu in the palace.

But it's a pity that the prince's strange behavior yesterday has made her wary, so at today's palace banquet, she has always stared down at the wine glass in front of her, and never looked up at anyone.

But even so, Gu Yuetong could still feel that Prince Xuanyuan Yan would look at him from time to time.

Gu Yuetong's heart was pounding excitedly, but she could only be more and more cautious, and she didn't dare to take a wrong step in Lei Chi.

At this moment, the queen mother sitting at the top suddenly smiled and said, "Yo! The prince really loves the princess! This prince

The princess eats whatever dishes the prince has tried before eating, tsk......"

When Gu Yuetong heard this, she turned her head to the side, and then realized that Xuanyuan Yan was constantly putting vegetables into her bowl, which he had really tasted in person. Her face turned red all of a sudden, and she hurriedly whispered: "Your Highness, you don't have to ...... like this"

"You're pregnant, so it's better to be careful in everything." Xuanyuan Yan didn't pay attention to the queen, and only looked at Gu Ruoxi indifferently.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern." Gu Yuetong said in a low voice, and hurriedly withdrew her gaze.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that there was also a gaze on the other side looking at her.

Gu Yuetong's heart immediately moved, she knew that the person who came over was Xuanyuan Shu, but she didn't dare to look up, this feeling was not comfortable at all. Especially Xuanyuan Yan's diligence, she was afraid that Xuanyuan would misunderstand.

"You two are really respectful of each other!" At that moment, the queen chuckled lowly again.

She really hates the chaos of the world!

When Xuanyuan Yan heard this, he felt very uncomfortable, so he ignored the queen, but at this time, the emperor sitting on the top suddenly glanced at this side and said: "The queen is right, the relationship between the prince and Tong'er is very good, and even I envy it!" ”

"The emperor doesn't have to be envious, aren't the concubines by your side?" Concubine Xuanyuan, who had recently entered the palace, immediately said with a smile. Her appearance is three points similar to the sisters of the Gu family, and she has been very favored by the emperor recently, and she spoke out boldly at this time, which can be regarded as stealing the limelight from the queen.

The Queen's eyes narrowed dangerously.

But at this time, the emperor hugged Concubine Xuanyuan, and said with a smile: "Not bad, not bad!" With you, I don't have to envy others! ”

Xuanyuan Yan sat there, listening to this conversation expressionlessly, but his heart was mixed, and a wave of anger gradually rose.

What does he mean exactly? Do you want to molest his wife in front of him? Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this.
