Chapter 119, Song State
Pebbles fall into the lake, disturbing a pool of small fish.
Mo Zhu quickly stepped inside, and rushed out again. Carefully wiping the water off the table, Mo Zhu quickly cleaned up the mess on the table, and scolded the little maid behind her who was waiting for her to put the cup on the plate: "Who taught you to serve Lin Gongzi such hot tea?!" I really don't know the rules! β
The little girl was very aggrieved, opened her mouth to say something, and Leng Buding looked at the agarwood on the side with a somewhat indifferent look, and couldn't help but shudder, and lowered her head in a panic and didn't dare to defend half a sentence.
"Lin Gongzi, are you hurt?" Mo Zhu finished cleaning up before he looked at Lin Zhixuan with a little apology on his face.
It's just that the noble son who lost his mind for a moment has already put away his emotions, and smiled at her to finish cleaning up: "It's okay, it has nothing to do with this little girl, it was I who accidentally spilled the teacup, and it was overturned." He glanced at the teacup and looked at Gu Mingxiu with a smile, "It's a rather delicate tea set, if it's broken, it's a pity, but it's not broken - that, that Shen Yang Shen Gongzi, but his real name?" β
"Where is the name fake?" Gu Mingxiu watched Mo Zhu retreat, then set his eyes on Lin Zhixuan's face, and let him explore a little, "But... Why? β
Lin Zhixuan paused, opened the folding fan briskly and shook it: "I'm not afraid of Miss Gu laughing, I like to gossip about trivial things." This Shen Yang son.... It's exactly the same name as someone I've ever heard. He looked at Gu Mingxiu and smiled slightly, "That's... The crown prince of Da Shen. β
"It's not a secret to you." Gu Mingxiu smiled slightly, "My grandfather suppressed my abduction, few people in Jing Zhou know the inside story, and Gongzi Lin knows." That is indeed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Da Shenβ"
She looked at the slight change on the face of the young prince opposite, and then was slightly surprised, before she smiled and said: "It's just that the prince came here to do something, but I don't know, my grandfather asked us to hide this matter, and I also asked Lin Gongzi not to spread it." β
"Miss Gu, don't worry, I naturally won't." Lin Zhixuan raised the fan slightly to cover half of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes looking at Gu Mingxiu with a smile, revealing a bit of deep meaning, "So it seems.... This Tai-Shen Gongzi seems to have an unusual friendship with Miss Gu, but he is desperate to save you. β
"Probably... Just look at my second sister's face. Gu Mingxiu narrowed her eyes, slightly revealing a bit of unprovoked loneliness, she pulled the corners of her lips and chuckled, "Lin Gongzi Xu doesn't know, I was originally in the Gu Mansion in Yangzhou.... There is a second sister. The second sister is a very famous talented woman in Yangzhou, I'm afraid it's the prince's ....."
She paused at this point, and only sighed slightly: "It's inconvenient for me to thank the prince, and I have no friendship with Gu Fu for a long time, and I have many misunderstandings with the second sister, so I can't say anything in front of the second sister..... I had to ask Lin Gongzi to do it for me. β
"Where." Lin Zhixuan hurriedly comforted her, and softened her voice slightly, "Although I don't recognize the second lady of the Gu family, but Miss Gu, you are very.... In my heart, there are few people who can match you. β
There is a bit of friendship in the corners of your son's eyes, tenderness and appreciation.
When he saw Gu Mingxiu hanging his head and not saying a word, he laughed a few times and said softly: "As for visiting Shen Gongzi, you don't have to worry, I will go and see him for you tomorrow." When I have made it clear to him, I will come and give you an explanation. β
"In this way, there is the son of Laurin." Gu Mingxiu got up and blessed him.
Lin Zhixuan hurriedly went to help her, and the two chatted for a while, and then Lin Zhixuan got up to say goodbye.
Mozhu led him out of the courtyard.
Gu Mingxiu stared at the other party's back, slightly silent, with a bit of inquiring and thoughtful light in his eyes.
"Everyone is gone, and you are still so reluctant, how about you leave him down for a meal? This king thinks that there is a huge general's mansion, and there will not be many people who can't afford to eat. The lazy voice with a little sneer, carried by the wind with a little fallen leaves, melodiously blew to her ears.
Gu Mingxiu didn't look back, still staring into the distance: "How long have you been listening there?" β
"It didn't take long.... It's only a moment before you came. The male voice was still lazy, careless and with a bit of deliberate provocation, "I want to take a look at what kind of character is more important than this king, but now I have a look... It's not very good, not as good as this king. β
"Xiao Xiu'er, do you have any brains to abandon this king for such a person?"
Gu Mingxiu didn't pay attention to the other party's cynicism at all.
She retracted her gaze, raised her hand to pick up the teacup, closed her eyes and took a sip before asking lightly, "Do you see what's coming?" β
"It's not a great character." She put down the teacup, and the moment she raised her eyes, there was a noble and stubborn young man opposite, gently tapping on the table with his fingertips, and looking at her with a smile, "It's not worth caring about." β
After Mozhu finished sending Lin Zhixuan, when he came back, he saw that Shen Huai had entered her girl's courtyard at some point. She subconsciously glanced back at the path behind her, silently thinking that the guards of the General's Mansion didn't seem to be much stronger than the Gu Mansion, and one day someone wanted to kidnap her girl, wouldn't it be simple..... With this thought in mind, Mo Zhu stepped forward to pack up the teacup, and Fu Shen retreated to prepare a new tea set.
Gu Mingxiu looked at him: "He knows Shen Yang." β
"It's not completely recogniz.....able," Shen Huai pondered for a moment and chuckled, "I guess I haven't done any experience as a spy, and I can't hide anything in my eyes, or maybe I underestimated you, so it's not more than a disguise." There are some petty schemes, but they don't have any big skills. β
"He wants to see Shen Yang." Gu Mingxiu said.
"Naturally, I want to." Shen Huai smiled lazily, "He deliberately became friends with An Yan, and was able to enter and leave the General's Mansion freely, and even knew General An a little, isn't that the person." Mo Zhu served new tea, Shen Huai reached out and flicked the lid of the teacup, and seemed very interested, "It's just that I didn't expect to see it at this time, so I was naturally very surprised, so I can't help but ask you for confirmation." β
Gu Mingxiu pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "He hasn't moved much these days, I originally thought I guessed wrong." When he first saw Shen Yang that day, his attitude was not very ordinary, but Shen Yang didn't seem to recognize him. β
"He secretly came to Da Shen once, but he didn't come openly, Shen Yang had never seen it, so he naturally didn't know it." Shen Yang bent his lips and laughed casually, "Rao is General An, and he has never recognized it, let alone Shen Yang." β
With a sudden movement in his heart, Gu Mingxiu looked at Shen Huai: "Did you mention it to your grandfather?" β
"Naturally, I have to mention it, how can I find a reason not to be suspicious and can stay safely." Shen Huai glanced at her and laughed, "I've said so, you still don't think I'm a person who is suspicious of the General's Mansion, right?" β
Gu Mingxiu looked away and said thoughtfully: "So, you have confirmed his identity?" β
Shen Huai looked at her fixedly: "Haven't you already decided?" β
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Gu Mingxiu pondered: "It's just... How could the crown prince of the Song Kingdom come to Dashen? β
"The Song Kingdom has long been dissatisfied with the scene of the two countries sharing the world equally over the years, and it is very normal for them to make some moves." Shen Huai said, "Most of the tribes in Biansai were bought by the Song State, so there have been grievances one after another in recent days, in order to weaken my Da Shen's troops and food. β
Shen Huai's eyes were a little cool, but his lips were curled but there was no smile: "Unfortunately, these are the things that Da Shen lacks the most." Prince Song came to Dashen in person, thinking that he also wanted to buy the general's mansion. Seeing Gu Mingxiu's slightly fluctuating eyes, Shen Huai seemed to smile, "Don't be excited." β
Gu Mingxiu looked at him and remained silent.
"General An is a stubborn rock that can't be kicked in, and there is no sign of softening. Prince Song naturally wasted most of the year for no reason, but unfortunately he didn't get any information. Shen Huai said, "Now that Shen Yang has appeared, it is undoubtedly an opportunity for him." β
"It's a pity that the prince is not favored... Not everyone knows it. Gu Mingxiu bent the corners of his lips, "Shen Yang is very willing to cooperate with this Prince Song for the sake of interests, but these two people have plans and other plans." β
One acre and three points of land. In the previous life, Gu Mingxiu had never seen this Song prince, but he had heard Shen Yang say that the two of them had left letters to exchange letters, so that they could go to the world. Shen Yang told her at that time that the Prince Song was not a credible person, and it was because of this that she almost died several times, and finally even took Miao Lan's life.
In this life, you have to pay it back.
Gu Mingxiu lowered his eyes and pondered, and there was an indifferent chill in his eyes. Her face was the same, her eyes sank slightly, and the whole person had a somewhat cold temperament hovering beside her.
Shen Huai glanced at her and smiled in a low voice: "It's just.... I just realized today that the appearance of the embroidered girl playing with the same people is really very cute and well-behaved, much better than this one in front of this king. Staring at Gu Mingxiu's expression steadily, Shen Huai rarely softened his voice, "Miss Xiu'er.... It seems that from the first time I saw this king, to this day, I have never had that false face to this king. β
"This king is very curious, what is that for?" Shen Huai looked at her and asked a question.
Gu Mingxiu was slightly silent for a moment.
Why.... For this person to be as unpredictable as he appears, even difficult to grasp. Gu Mingxiu knew at the first glance that this young man was completely more dangerous and uncontrollable than he looked.
In some ways, Shen Huai is the same as her.... But not the same people.
Gu Mingxiu looked at the person in front of her who was waiting for her to answer, and her eyes lightened slightly.
"Shen Huai."
The girl opened her lips and called each other's names calmly and calmly.
"What exactly do you want?"
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
