In the study of the Zhenguo Mansion, Gu Qingfan and Yan Shu were spying.

In the study of the Second Prince's Mansion, Yan Kuo and his confidants were also talking.

"He's pushing me!" Yan Kuo said angrily with a dark face, "He is forcing me to marry Gu Wanqing to a sedan chair as a concubine, but the Zhu family has already had two children with me, and he has never committed any sins...... The most important thing is that even if I want her to commit it, I still have to bear the anger from the Zhu family, which ...... It's not a good deal! ”

"Your Highness is angry, Your Highness is angry, in fact, this Miss Gu family doesn't have to be." The staff persuaded him repeatedly, "Even if you marry Miss Gu Jia, who does this Gu Xiao General want to help, doesn't it depend on his intentions?" The subordinates believe that it is most important to win over General Gu Xiao, and Miss Gu is really not that important. ”

"No, wouldn't that be cheaper for the fourth?" Yan Kuo frowned and said, "If I don't have him, I won't be in a hurry whether I win over General Gu Xiao or marry Miss Gu as a side concubine." ”

If only I didn't have him......

Suddenly, Yan Kuo seemed to be blessed to the soul, his frowning brows were relaxed, and his face was no longer gloomy, but he had a faint smile.

"Your Highness is planning to ......," the staff made a gesture to wipe their necks.

Yan Kuo nodded with a sneer.

The staff felt that sweat was falling on his forehead, and he said nervously, "Your Highness, think twice, after all, it is Your Majesty's biological child...... Fratricide is a thing, although no dynasty can avoid it, but no emperor wants to see it before he is alive......"

I think about the beginning, the first emperor, how big the brothers were fratricidal, and several who took the initiative to persecute their brothers were either imprisoned or killed, and only this one of the three princes who did not fight or fight was relatively peaceful until the end......

But as a staff member, he couldn't say it too clearly, so he had to give some examples to persuade the second prince.

Yan Kuo seemed to be iron-hearted, not only did he ignore the words of the staff, but he also planned it urgently.

Which people go where, and which people are assigned to do what......

The staff was frightened and was still there chattering and admonishing him.

Yan Kuo was unhappy in his heart, and scolded him loudly, "What are you afraid of, my father's emperor will be able to win the throne, not because he doesn't fight or grab, nor because he has been helped by a prince in Cangzhou, but because the first emperor likes his father." Now my father also likes me, what am I afraid of, my father's love is real, these are not important! ”

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and strode away.

Only the staff was left standing alone, looking at him with a somewhat dejected and desperate gaze.

In the Zhenguo Mansion.

In the end, Gu Qingfan still relayed Yan Shu's words in the Jinluan Palace to Bai Shao, and it was when the Ruan family was also present.

"Did he really say that?" Before Bai Shao could ask anything, Ruan Shi had already patted the arm of the chair excitedly and stood up, and said urgently, "Did he really say that he would stay with Qingqing I and never be separated?" ”

"Yes, mother." Gu Qingfan nodded with a smile, "With what I know about him, I will basically do what I say, and Bang Qing should know it." ”

"Ah......" Bai Shao said with a red face, "Although we haven't spent much time together, we have known each other for a few years, and I know that he will do what he says......"

Although Bai Shao is also shy, she is not a real eleven-year-old girl in this era, once she talks about her life's events, she is too shy to speak out, and she is left to her parents and elders to decide.

She is a person with her own thoughts, and since she woke up and became a white peony, she knew that she would have to marry sooner or later.

She used to be a little resistant, because the age of marriage in this era is too early, the woman is about thirteen or fourteen years old, and the man is about seventeen or eighteen years old, and she is about to get married as a baby, which makes her psychologically unacceptable.

Later, I met Yan Shu, although I thought he was just a teenager, and there was occasionally a hint of naivety in his words, but occasionally I thought about it, if the person in the future was him, Bai Shao was in his heart...... It seems to be acceptable.

It may be that after being a child for a long time, people's mentality is also naïve.

Bai Shao smiled, pursed her lips and lowered her head, pricking up her ears to listen to Gu Qingfan tell Ruan Shi what Yan Shu was going to do next.

Although the request for marriage was refused, Yan Shu was not discouraged, but made many preparations with high morale.

The first is to refute the rumor that the second prince said that he saw Bai Shao's profane appearance, and secondly, he released the news again, saying that the second prince did not see Miss Gu's profane clothes at that time, but when the fourth prince rescued her, he wrapped his clothes in her.

Although he did not say what the four princes saw with his own eyes, this kind of specious peachy news is what the people of Yanjing love the most.

In addition, the four princes later said that they would be responsible for the Miss Gu family, and the matter of asking for marriage in the Jinluan Palace turned this originally not very elegant thing into a talented woman praised by the people, a talented and beautiful woman, and a perfect match in the world.

When the second prince heard the news, he gritted his teeth with hatred, but the emperor in the deep palace had a smile in the corner of his eye.

At the same time, Yan Shu seemed to have truly released himself, not only often entering the palace, kneeling in front of the emperor, and even often going in and out of the ministers' mansions, even a few old princes did not let go, and the posture of wanting to have a deep conversation with them shocked many people.

The fourth prince who wilted and disappeared at every turn, is this going to compete with the second prince?

At the same time, in the harem, the mother of the fourth prince, Concubine Duan, also began to be inexplicably arrogant, and repeatedly openly sang against the concubine Niangniang, that is, the mother of the second prince, which made the entire Yanjing's quick-thinking people a little frightened, and always felt that something was going to happen.

Bai Shao is also a little uneasy these days, because Yan Shu has to visit the minister's mansion, and the time to come to her has become less.

But her uneasiness was not because of this, but because of the woman's natural instincts.

Just tell her that something is going to happen.

But in fact, if anything happened in Yanjing for several months, Bai Shao felt that she was a little worried, so she asked Bai Wei and Linglong to come over to accompany her.

These days, Bai Wei seems to have something on her mind, although she still loves to laugh, but her smile is not as bright as in the past.

Bai Shao asked her what was wrong, but she didn't say anything, just kept glancing outside Bai Shao's yard, as if she was waiting for someone to come.

To say that the only one of these three people who has no heart is Linglong, and because of her age, she spontaneously became a confidant sister, where she enlightened Bai Shao and Bai Wei.

"You guys, you're just worrying, if there's really anything, can it be your turn?" Linglong taught them, "Do you think you can dance a gun or a stick, instead of worrying there, why don't you go over and ask, what happened, isn't your brain working?" It's better to come up with an idea than to be alone here. ”

"What ideas can I come up with, these things ......" Bai Shao smiled reluctantly, "Although I now have the identity of a Miss Gu family, in essence, I am still just a small village girl in Shilipu." ”

"Yes, I am a small village girl in a ten-mile shop, my father and mother are all farming, if it weren't for Shao'er, maybe the family would be enslaved by milk for the rest of my life, and there will be no future...... Bai Wei also followed the gods, "I can't say, maybe I was married by milk last year...... As long as the other party gives a high dowry, the milk will definitely agree...... How can you have your current life, not to mention being free, and you can still go in and out of places like Zhenguo Mansion. ”

"You two ......," Linglong couldn't help laughing, "I want to persuade you to be relieved, not to attack you." Don't keep saying that once upon a time, you could come out of Shilipu and get to the point where you are now, is that what a small village girl can do? Be strong, cheer up, ask if you have any doubts, don't hold it in your heart, it's not cost-effective to hold it for a long time. ”

Bai Shao was silent, she really wanted to know what Yan Shu was going to do, but they didn't tell her, so she could only hold it in her heart.

As for Bai Wei, he lowered his head dejectedly and muttered, "Say anything, one in the sky and one in the ground, it's better not to humiliate yourself." ”

"What is self-inflicted?" At this time, a faint voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

As soon as Bai Shao looked up, she found that it was Gu Qingfan who came, she quickly stood up, looked at him with a bright look, and before she could speak, Bai Wei on the side suddenly "snorted", covered her face and ran into the room.

Bai Shao and Gu Qingfan glanced at each other and looked at each other, but Linglong next to him showed a knowing smile. for a better user experience.
