"No matter what he's done, he's your relative after all." The old man sighed, put his hand on the string, and wiped it gently. The invisible eyes seemed to be staring carefully at the pair of sycamore wood.

"Loved ones? He doesn't deserve it! Shake the light squeezed the words out of his mouth, "How did my mother die?" Why should he be my relative? ”

"Girl, let's go." The old man sighed lowly, "I've gotten used to being alone all these years, as long as I know that you are still alive, I can go to see Mr. Gu with peace of mind." ”

"Gu Bo." Shaking the light stubbornly, a trace of worry slipped in her eyes, she just knew about Gu Bo's existence, and she didn't want to leave this person. The memories of his childhood came flooding back to his heart, and he opened his mouth and said in a low voice, "Uncle Gu, I don't want to leave." ”

"Girl, let's go. The sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high for the birds to fly. Gu Bo suddenly looked ahead, and laughed loudly, as if he wanted to penetrate the peony that was once famous in the capital, "Girl, since you are here, I will give you a task." You must not let this peony fall into the hands of others, Mr. Gu liked him the most back then. ”

If it weren't for the fact that Shaoguang knew that the old man was no longer able to see at this moment, he was afraid that he would also think that the old man was staring straight at the peony.

"Yes." How much Mr. Gu likes this peony, it is clear from the bottom of his heart.

If he didn't like it, Mr. Gu wouldn't have held a peony banquet here every year.

"Go back. Occasionally, when I have leisure to come to see my old bones with a pot of wine, I am satisfied. The old man stood up and walked away with the piano in his arms.

Shaoguang wanted to follow, but she and the old man had become strangers in the past ten years. Whether it is her voice or appearance, she has changed a lot.

The food box in his hand was still there, and when he opened it, the chrysanthemum cake inside was already cold.

This chrysanthemum cake was also what Mr. Gu liked to eat at the beginning.

He placed the food box next to the peony flower, shook the light and lowered his eyes, bowed, and turned to leave.

After shaking the light and leaving, the figure that had been hiding behind the tree came out.

With a face like jade, a light moon and a clear breeze, no one would have imagined that Xie Qiyuan, the first son of the famous capital, would one day hide behind a tree and eavesdrop on others.

"You kid, you've been standing there for a long time, aren't your legs numb?" The old man went and returned, sitting in the place where the food box had just been shaken and dropped, and a piece of pastry was stuffed into his mouth. The fragrance of chrysanthemums completely melted into his mouth, and the old man squinted his eyes, he hadn't tasted this taste for a long time.

"Uncle Gu, this is what that girl brought to Mr. Gu. Also, your ears have become more sensitive lately. Xie Qiyuan walked to the old man's side, lifted his robe and sat next to the old man, and also learned from the old man to pinch a piece of pastry that was already cold from the food box and stuff it into his mouth.

"Just eat." The old man snorted lightly, "Old man, I'm blind, but I can't be deaf, can I?" ”

"Xiao Xie, that girl is not dead."

"Hmm."

"But I feel like I'm at the end of my time."

"Hmm."

"It's just a pity that I can't watch that girl do something earth-shattering."

"Hmm."

"Xiao Xie, I forgot to tell you. That girl is the daughter-in-law I gave you in the photo, no, you are the husband I gave her in the photo. ”

"Huh?" Xie Qiyuan looked at the old man fixedly, although there was surprise on his face, but it was not obvious.

"How? She's not bad, right? The old man smiled, "Her mother was a famous flower in the capital, and although I can't see it now, I can feel that she looks exactly like her mother." After speaking, the old man sighed again, "It's a pity...... Her mother could no longer see. ”

Xie Qiyuan lowered his eyes, pinched the pastry in his hand and was fixed. "The concubine Niangniang was indeed a famous talented and good-looking woman in the capital, but ......"

"But Empress Gu is better, isn't she?" The old man clapped his hands and stood up and dusted off his body, "That girl I grew up with my own eyes...... Forget it, you juniors hurry up, old man, I just want to stay alone for a while. ”

Xie Qiyuan stood up and looked at the chrysanthemum cake in his hand fixedly.

Seemingly...... The old man forgot to tell him what was the matter with his husband?

"Princess." Seeing Shaoguang come out, Xuan Ling hurriedly got out of the carriage to greet him.

It's just that there was no grief on his face that he had thought, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

"Xuan Ling, you go back and find a few people with strong martial arts to guard the Gu Mansion." Shake the light and the positive color channel.

It was rare to meet Shaguang Zhengse, Xuan Ling was curious, why did he guard this Gu Mansion that had been deliberately forgotten for ten years, but he was not as unrestrained as Lu Su, so he didn't ask.

"Especially, keep an eye on the old man inside."

Shake the light and glanced back at the plaque that had already fallen half a point. The eyes are complicated, the outside of the mansion is so desolate, who would have thought that the inside would be deliberately kept by an old man to this day?

Xuan Ling's face was shocked, and he looked up at the door, as if he wanted to see through the gate clearly.

Is there anyone else in there?

The princess's performance today, could it be that she was the original person in it?

Xuan Ling's face was uncertain, and he looked at Sha Guang's face, as if he wanted to get an answer from her face.

Shaoguang nodded, and entered the carriage with some relief on his face. Xuan Ling took a deep look at the gate of the Gu Mansion, and at this moment, he suddenly smelled the breath of the wind and rain.

A rare smile on his lips, and no one saw it.

The carriage drove into the distance, the creaking gate opened, and it was Xie Qiyuan, who had a warm face, who came out of it. Walked out of the gate and carried the wagon in the direction of the wagon.

Shaoguang didn't know how much the old man turned back after she left, and he didn't know how much Xie Qiyuan heard hiding behind the tree.

"Princess, you're back." As soon as Shaoguang got out of the door, Lu Su came out. His face was anxious, and he had obviously been waiting for the light to shake for a long time.

Shaking the light at a glance, he saw the anxiety on Lu Su's face and asked, "What's wrong?" What's going on? ”

"The eldest princess and the seventh princess are in the hall."

Shaking Light casually untied the cloak and handed it to Lu Su, as if puzzled, "Did they say they came here for something?" ”

Lu Su was a little worried on her face, but the eldest princess was still unwilling to give up, "The eldest princess also brought two grandmothers." ”

After listening to Lu Su's words, a hint of clarity slipped through Shake Light's eyes. I'm afraid that this royal sister is really not giving up.

"The eldest sister, the seventh emperor sister." The person sitting upright at this moment is the eldest princess, and next to her is the seventh princess who is sitting upright. Seeing Shake Light greeting them, he looked up and smiled shyly at Shake Light, and lowered his head again.

"What are the two imperial sisters looking for today?" Shake Light walked in and sat down straight, sitting across from the Celestial Princess. At a glance, the very good etiquette maintained by the eldest princess was included in her eyes, her back was straight, dignified and generous, and she was really a royal princess.

"Look what you look like!" The eldest princess couldn't help but say a few words of admonition when she saw this bad manner, but she seemed to think of something, and she didn't say the words of admonition, but frowned slightly to express her dissatisfaction. She turned her head and saw the Seventh Princess Yuheng sitting upright like her, and the anger in her heart calmed down a little. Yu Heng grew up in the palace after all, and he is not much better than this sister who grew up in the mountains.

"Sister Emperor." Shake the light and lazily put down the teacup in his hand, "It's been more than a month since I've been back, and you only came to visit today, there must be something." ”

The eldest princess didn't hide it at the moment, she nodded and motioned to the maid standing aside, and the maid next to her quickly held the things in her hand to shake the light. "In three days, I will hold a chrysanthemum banquet in the Emerald Garden, and I have come here to post for you today. This is the second time I've hosted a chrysanthemum feast, so you must come. ”

"Emerald Annex?" There was a faint question in Shake Light's eyes, and I don't know why, she had a bad premonition in her heart.

"Its original name was Liuli Garden, and it was the garden of a princess at the beginning." The eldest princess didn't notice the stiffness of Shaoguang's face, and continued, "The year before last, my aunt said that the chrysanthemums in the glazed garden bloomed very well, so it was better to open them and hold a chrysanthemum feast. The father agreed, so he opened the shelved garden, and by the way, renamed the garden the Jade Garden. Nine Emperor Sister, you may not know that you have just come down from Jingshan, this chrysanthemum banquet has been held for two sessions, and my aunt has held it for the first time, I hosted it last year, and I support it this year. ”

The hand that shook the light had hidden into the sleeve at some point, clenching it tightly, and the green tendons on the hand burst out.

A princess before? It's Princess Kaiyuan. Princess Kaiyuan's things, you dare to ......

"What did you say, eldest sister?" Shaoguang collected all his emotions and smiled softly, "The banquet hosted by the eldest imperial sister, how could Shaoguang be absent?" ”

The eldest princess only saw four or five shakes of light, and every time she saw the shake light, she was extremely powerful. How had she ever seen the soft shaking light at this moment? Is it her own sister, the eldest princess also softened her heart, she pointed to the two grandmothers standing behind her, and said softly, "Nine Emperor Sister, you have only come back from Jingshan, and you haven't had time to learn etiquette yet." These two grandmothers were brought out of the palace by me, and the two of them will definitely be able to teach the Pope's sister etiquette well, and he will not lose the face of our royal children at the chrysanthemum banquet on Sunday. ”

There was a hint of sarcasm on the corner of her mouth, and she looked at the dignified eldest princess who was sitting opposite her waist and straight, and she couldn't find a trace of fault, "Sister Emperor, a few days ago in the palace, didn't I know what I said?" ”

"Nine Emperor Sisters." The eldest princess gritted her teeth, her tone hardened, and she was still unwilling to give up, "Nine Emperor Sisters, the princess of our royal family, should have the posture of a princess!" You can't do that. ”

"I'm the princess of the royal family, even if they don't like me?" Shaking Light's gaze looked straight at the other side, "What can they do to me?" ”
