Who knows, this time Gu Congyuan didn't have time to reply, but the emperor scolded him first: "King Cong is also outside the palace every day, he can't do it, can you?" ”

Gu Ziyan choked for a moment, this kind of investigation is protracted, and it has to be painstaking, he is most afraid of this kind of thing, so for a while, his expression wandered: "Erchen...... Erchen ......"

Gu Ji's face sank, and he was rarely harsh on the prince, and said: "Since you can't do it, let your second brother go, what's wrong, you are pointing fingers on the side, what kind of system is it!" ”

Gu Ziyan didn't expect his father to suddenly yell at him, he couldn't figure out whether his father was protecting him for fear of the danger of investigating the case, or did he want to give King Cong a chance to make meritorious contributions.

The prince said stupidly: "The second brother is very talented, these things naturally can't be difficult for him." ”

Gu Ji is always good at these tedious and complicated roundabouts, and if they are confused, they will make it impossible to find the north.

Gu Cong had no choice but to obediently accept the order, while Gu Ziyan returned to the East Palace with suspicion and anger.

He is a good-natured and gentle prince in front of outsiders, but only people in the East Palace understand that the real horror of the prince is that he is gentle and elegant to outsiders, holding all those insidious and cunning in his stomach, and he may not know when he will come to a yin.

Seeing that Gu Ziyan's face was not very good, Zhao Qinghe really loved the prince, and naturally cared for him, so he boiled white fungus lotus seed soup for people, so that he could calm down, and he must not be angry.

However, Gu Ziyan didn't eat this, put the white fungus lotus seed soup on the table, and rubbed his eyebrows to let Zhao Qinghe go down.

Coincidentally, Su Qingyan came in again and took a look at the crown princess, she smiled softly: "Qingyan has seen the princess Niangniang." ”

Zhao Qinghe was jealous of this person's unique grace, but she couldn't deal with her, after all, those messy fox kung fu, the honest show girl couldn't learn, she didn't look at the person, and left with the maid.

"Why is Your Highness worried?" Su Qingyan neither boiled soup for people, nor did he ask for warmth, but sat directly in the arms of the prince.

Gu Ziyan ate her set, and did not refuse, nor did he cater to her, but said: "My father asked me and Gu Congyuan to go to the Heart Cultivation Hall today, saying that there was a disappearance of a young girl in the capital, and ordered the second brother to investigate." ”

Su Qingyan put her arms around the man's neck and asked, "Since you are letting Gu Cong go away, why did you summon His Highness again?" ”

"God knows what my father thinks, could it be that I was specifically asked to see his face?" Gu Ziyan's teeth were itching with hatred, and he said with compassion.

Su Qingyan's mind is exquisite, and the woman who mixes in the Fengyue Field is more than just beautiful.

She snorted: "Light smoke guesses, His Highness must be impatient, and he doesn't want to investigate the case, so His Majesty will show His Highness's face." ”

Gu Ziyan said helplessly: "Investigate the case, check and investigate, it's just like that, it's really troublesome, this palace should think of more ways to clean up Gu Congyuan's little bastard, how can you waste time on this?" ”

"Your Highness, you can't think about it, right?" Su Qingyan smiled coquettishly, "To deal with King Cong, why wait for the opportunity, isn't this a great opportunity?" ”

Gu Ziyan was stunned, and soon understood, and said, "You mean...... Let this palace go to compete with Gu Congyuan? ”

"Not bad." Su Qingyan saw that the prince was transparent, lying in someone's arms, and his hands were still teasing, "Your Majesty, this is testing you about this matter."

Attitude, Your Highness think about it, if you can get things done before King Cong, Your Majesty will definitely see your talent, and then ...... King Cong is nothing more than a bad piece of waste! ”

Gu Ziyan was silent for a long time, then smiled, directly hugged the person horizontally, strode to the dormitory, and raised his hand to the red curtain lower.

"My good staff, let this palace see how your seven-trick exquisite heart grows!"

Gu Congyuan naturally knew that the prince would not let go of any opportunity to compete with him, so he did not stick to the Lu family in the past few days, but worked day and night to investigate with the people in the official mansion.

After being anxious again and again, he gritted his teeth and recognized it

Master Zhang is really a waste! Three points stupider than a pig!

The night was dark, Lu Yao was grooming in the mirror, Hongluan was dozing off on the side, she really couldn't stand it, so she simply asked the man to go back to rest first.

Hongluan and Lu Yao have known each other for a long time, not like a master and servant, but more like a sister, she is not polite, and left with a vague answer: "Miss has an order, please call me." ”

Lu Yao secretly scolded herself, as far as she slept so much that she couldn't get up when she was on fire......

Just when she was full of sorrow in her heart, a small figure appeared at the door: "Miss." ”

As soon as she heard this submissive voice, Lu Yao knew who this person was, and she smiled: "Early morning? Come on in. ”

Lu Chuchen walked in obediently, extremely well-behaved, perhaps because he had wandered for too long before, and this time he suddenly had a branch to perch on, so he would be extra cautious and grateful.

Lu Chuchen was holding a wooden tray in her hand, looking a little struggling, she said softly: "This is the soothing incense sent by the housekeeper, saying that His Royal Highness King Cong has not returned in the past few days, and he is afraid that the eldest lady will not sleep well, so he specially bought it." ”

Lu Yao's thick face on the city wall was also a little unbearable, he cleared his throat and said stiffly: "What...... What a mess! It has nothing to do with me whether he Gu Cong comes back or not, I'm innocent now! ”

Lu Chuchen has a cowardly temperament, because he has been oppressed and beaten for many years, and he can actually see through the world better than ordinary children in his bones.

She lowered her head and smiled, and the movement in her hand quickly lit the soothing incense, and the room instantly spread out with bursts of fragrance, which Lu Chuchen had just learned from the housekeeper, and now he is learning and selling.

The kid actually said: "I can see that the eldest lady and His Royal Highness King Cong love each other, and when they like someone, even the eyes that look at him are unique." ”

Lu Yao walked over, looked at her in surprise for a while, pinched her little face, and said, "I'm not old, but I know a lot." ”

Lu Chuchen smiled and let the man fiddle.

Lu Yao looked at this child who deliberately hid her feelings, and suddenly felt a little distressed, she asked, "Chu Chen...... Ever thought about looking for your biological parents? ”

Lu Chuchen was obviously stunned for a moment, immediately knelt down, and cried: "I don't know what Chuchen did wrong, but please give me another chance and don't drive me away!" ”

As soon as she knelt like this, Lu Yao was also shocked, this child was skinny, wearing this wide subordinate costume, he looked even weaker, as if he was about to break if he pinched it.

Lu Yao hurriedly helped the person up and asked her to sit on the chair and not be excited.

"I'm not going to drive you away! You can always follow me! "She's a little embarrassed,

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned this, I just wanted to know ...... you."

Lu Chuchen breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I have also thought about this matter, but if I stay in the beggar's nest for a long time, people's hearts will be numb, in fact, I live a very painful life, begging for food, starving, and beating day after day...... Once upon a time, my daily hope was death. ”

It is hard to imagine that this kind of words came out of the mouth of a teenager, Lu Yao was surprised for a while, his mood was delicate and complicated, and he wanted to open his mouth to comfort, but for a long time there was only a dry sentence: "You ...... You can't think like that! ”

"The eldest lady asked me if I wanted to find my father, but I actually didn't want to for a long time." Lu Chuchen's smile was like a flickering candle in the house, gentle and faint.

She whispered, "I waited for a day, two days, a year, two years...... But after all this time, if they really knew that there was a child like me, why didn't they come to me? So, I will never have these unwarranted hopes again. ”

Lu Yao was speechless for a while, and she rubbed the child's hair distressedly.

"That's fine, you just follow me, the Lu family can be your safe haven."

Lu Chuchen looked at Lu Yao and smirked.

At that moment, the window was pushed open, and a black shadow jumped into the room.

The two were startled at the same time, Lu Yao raised his eyebrows, raised his voice and said, "Who are you?!" ”

The man stood still with the light and shadow on his back, turned around slowly, and said, "It's the person you think about day and night." ”

After Lu Yao saw the handsome man clearly, his face was still cross-browed, and he immediately turned into surprise and joy.

She rushed forward, but she was afraid that Lu Chuchen was still there, and immediately retracted her movements: "You're back!" ”

Lu Chuchen knew how to read people's eyes very well, and immediately picked up the wooden tray, put the incense burner on the table, and said honestly: "Miss, lord, I'll go down first." ”

"Let's go down." Gu Congyuan couldn't wait to throw this little ghost out quickly, and commanded coldly.

Lu Chuchen has always been a little afraid of King Cong, and the murder scene that day was too bloody, and it was simply a shadow of her life.

She hurriedly retreated and closed the door intimately.

Lu Yao saw that the child was so timid, her eyes revealed a little worry, and she looked at the door with some distress.

Who knew that Gu Congyuan didn't wait for her to react, he hugged her, put her chin on the socket of the person's neck, and whispered: "If Madame takes care of this child like this again, she will be jealous for her husband." ”

Lu Yaoshun was pressed on the bed with her, and she said half-pushing: "You are happy to admit it now." ”

He must have been so tired that his brain was confused, so he was talking nonsense, and all the bitter water and sweet words poured out together: "After all, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I always miss you." ”

As soon as she talked about how many days she hadn't seen her, Lu Yao felt a little resentful in her heart, and she asked, "In the past few days, have you returned to the palace?" ”

Gu Congyuan responded lazily: "My father has already ordered me to thoroughly investigate the girl's disappearance, and I haven't had time to tell you yet." ”

Listening to his reluctant tone, Lu Yao smiled in a low voice, Gu Congyuan is best to do more good deeds, and stifle his disobedient thoughts as soon as possible, so as not to end too difficult in the end.

Lu Yao reacted at this time, she glanced at the man's restless hand, and said lightly: "Do you know what you're doing now?" ”

"Yes." Gu Congyuan was calm, "Playing hooligan." ”
