"Lord Wang, why are you here?" Gu Jinzhi raised his head when he heard this, only to see that the person who opened the door turned out to be an acquaintance.

Su Jiu didn't expect Nalan Ci to come so late at all, and he still had Gu Jinzhi with him, thinking that something was going on in the house, Su Jiu quickly got dressed and invited Nalan Ci and Gu Jinzhi into his home.

Although Su Jiu's place of residence is a little more partial, but the home is still very warm, Su Jiu made tea for Nalan Ci and Gu Jinzhi, and went to another room to get his hair done:

"Lord Wang, when you came to your subordinates so late, do you have anything to explain to your subordinates?"

"It's nothing, this king took Jinzhi out to find some food, but I see that the stalls before are no longer out, and those childhood memories are gone."

"Looking for something to eat? The prince is not hungry, his subordinates help the prince make something to eat, but there is no delicacies like the palace at home, but it is still possible to fill the stomach. Nalan Ci nodded, and Su Jiu immediately went to the kitchen to make it.

In fact, it's not that Su Jiu doesn't see each other with Nalan Ci, the two of them have been fighting on the battlefield for many years in the past, and it is common for them to not be able to eat, and Nalan Ci does not have so much about the level of identity and thinks too highly of himself, so Su Jiu slowly knows that Nalan Ci is not so particular about eating and drinking.

Su Jiu is a big man who lives by himself, although he usually eats and drinks in the palace on weekdays, he inevitably sometimes cooks some food at home by himself, but it is only limited to simpler ones.

However, Su Jiu made things very quickly, and after a while, two bowls of hot mutton noodles were served in front of Nalan Ci and Gu Jinzhi, Gu Jinzhi was already hungry, and his eyes lit up when he saw these two bowls of noodles.

Nalan Ci knew that Gu Jinzhi was hungry, so he let him eat first, claiming that he had something to say to Su Jiu, and before entering the inner room, Nalan Ci pulled the eggs in his bowl into Gu Jinzhi's bowl.

Because there was no one around, Gu Jinzhi ate it by himself, it was really sweet.

Nalan Ci actually came to Su Jiu this time, just to ask him to do something for Gu Jinzhi, but the quiet on the street just now still made Nalan Ci feel a little puzzled, so he asked Su Jiu.

"Su Jiu, why don't those small traders come out of the stalls, even though the people of Yiguo live and work in peace and contentment now, there has always been a stall this night, right?"

"Lord Wang, in fact, a few days ago, there were noodle stalls on the street or something, but I heard that it seems that a group of people from the city are collecting so-called protection fees, and these scared people don't dare to come out to sell things. Not only at night, but also during the day, it is rare to see goods being sold. ”

The people's livelihood is good, the country is rich, this is the most said sentence when Nalan Cihuang's grandfather was alive, Nalan Cihuang's grandfather reigned for 63 years, and created all the great achievements of Yiguo, which made the country and the people safe. But because Nalan Ci's father did not have much excellence in political discipline, Yiguo has always maintained the past.

Not to mention the current Nalan Yong, it would be good to be able to keep the country's capital, Nalan Ci has always wanted to get some new regimes, but unfortunately he can only control the government as a prince, so sometimes he can't do it.

The common people can't come out to set up stalls, and it's useless to just have farmland:

"There is a matter of collecting premiums at the feet of the Son of Heaven, why didn't you tell this king about it?"

"Lord Wang, these are all trivial matters, now that the border barbarians are about to move, the prince has devoted himself to the deployment over there, where are such trivial matters reported to your decision. However, according to the subordinates, someone has reported this matter to the officials in Beijing, but they have not seen any movement. ”

"Su Jiu, the people are the country's major affairs, if the people are not doing well, that is the top priority, tomorrow you will personally run this matter, see why the officials in this city have not dealt with this matter for a long time, and the group of people who collect protection money, they will find out their bottom line, if necessary, you can cut it first and then play."

"Yes, my subordinates know."

Nalan Ci and Su Jiu discussed each other, not to mention how quickly the time passed, when the two came out of the inner room, Gu Jinzhi, who had already finished eating his bowl of noodles, didn't know when he actually lay on the table and fell asleep, and there was already a faint snoring sound at this time.

Su Jiu was a little embarrassed to see such a scene, but Nalan Ci suddenly burst out laughing, Su Jiu squinted at Nalan Ci, and didn't dare to take a breath.

Su Jiu felt that Nalan Ci seemed to have become different from before, in the past, Nalan Ci was ruthless and could sacrifice everything to answer his own goals, but now he seems to be a little indecisive, this is the first time Su Jiu has heard such laughter.

"After eating, I will sleep, and I will live like a pig, okay, this king will not disturb your rest here, this day is almost bright, this king has to take him back to the house quickly, otherwise when Zijia and they wake up, they will find that we are not there, and I don't know what kind of movement will happen."

Nalan Ci stepped forward and did not wake up Gu Jinzhi, but asked Su Jiu to take the handle, directly carried Gu Jinzhi behind him, and slowly walked towards the palace.

Nalan Ci and Gu Jinzhi came out from the back door, but when they went back, they wanted to enter through the back door, but they didn't know who got up to keep vigil and found that the back door was not closed, and it was locked tightly at this time.

Of course, this matter first reached Lin Baiqiu's ears, Lin Baiqiu was very annoyed when she knew about it, and saw her hand wave, and the tea cup on the table fell to the ground and fell into pieces.

"Princess, don't be angry, don't be angry with your body first."

"What am I angry about? I don't care what he does with Gu Jinzhi, but in the middle of the night, the frost and cold are heavy, if the prince's body is affected by the wind and cold, where is it for one of his male concubines to bear it. ”

"Princess, the slave maid thinks that this matter is still in the prince, no matter how Gu Jinzhi is, it is impossible for him to get out of the palace, if there is no prince with him, I am afraid that he will not even be able to step out with a single foot."

"Rusu, we have missed it last time, he is a chess game for the prince, although I can't get used to him, but we have to take care of the prince, the way we have to think about now is how to make the prince snub him."

"The princess has any good plans, and the slave is willing to hear about them."

Lin Baiqiu sighed, now she has no good way, Nalan Ci looks down on her now, and Nalan Ci is now living in Jinlan Pavilion, she has nothing to do.

But just as Lin Baiqiu sighed, Wu Yao, who was cleaning on the side, stepped forward and knelt in front of Lin Baiqiu:

"Princess, the slave is willing to share the burden for you."

Lin Baiqiu lowered his eyes and glanced at Wu Yao:

"What do you do?"

Wu Yao raised his head to meet Lin Baiqiu's eyes, Lin Baiqiu beckoned, Wu Yao attached it to Lin Baiqiu's ear, and I don't know what Wu Yao said, the more Lin Baiqiu listened, the more his worried brows stretched, and the last ill-intentioned smile climbed up the corner of his mouth.

In the afternoon of the same day, Lin Baiqiu pinched the time for Nalan to return home, rolled up his sleeves at the lotus pond where Nalan Ci had to pass to Jinlan Pavilion, and went down to the lotus pond with a few maids.

It turned out that Wu Yao told Lin Baiqiu that the hairpin that he had to give to Gu Jinzhi had fallen over there, if he wanted Gu Jinzhi to fall out of favor, he would have to get Nalan Ci's attention, and what Nalan Ci cared about most now was nothing more than Gu Jinzhi, as long as he was looking for something for Gu Jinzhi, Nalan Ci knew about it, and he would definitely pay more attention to Lin Baiqiu.

Rusu looked at Lin Baiqiu in the mud by the pond with something from the side, and was really frightened in her heart:

"Princess, the slave and maid look at this strange and dangerous thing, you can't just let the people look for it, you better come up."

"No, if you want to act, you can play the full set, otherwise the prince is so shrewd and will definitely be aware, so it's best for me to come in person. You take a closer look at the prince, I have already sent someone to inquire, and in a while, the prince will definitely pass by here. ”

"Then you must be careful, princess."

Rusu confessed, but she was still a hundred worried, her eyes fell on Lin Baiqiu's body all the time, and she couldn't leave for a long time.

Finally, after half a pillar of incense, Nalan Ci returned to the house in a mighty way, but this time it was unfortunate that the person who returned to the house was not Nalan Ci, because the frontier was about to go to war, so Nalan Ci brought several military ministers into the house, including Prime Minister Lin Cheng, who had not seen his daughter for a long time.

Rusu only watched Nalan resign and return home, but ignored the people who followed him, Rusu reminded Lin Baiqiu:

"Princess, the prince is here." As soon as he heard Nalan come back, Lin Baiqiu rummaged in the mud even more vigorously.

Because the silt in the pond where lotus flowers are raised is different from the silt in the pond, this silt is not good, after all, Lin Baiqiu has been by the pond for a while, just looking at her face and body, all stained with black silt.

Nalan Ci didn't expect that Lin Baiqiu would suddenly come out like this, and discussed with the ministers of military aircraft while walking, and walked to the pond, Rusu asked for peace first, Nalan Ci stopped and looked at Lin Baiqiu in the lotus pond, and a pair of sword eyebrows wrinkled.

"What is the princess doing? Now cleaning the lotus pond also needs the princess to do it herself? ”

After all, there are many courtiers who followed this time, and now she is a princess who is a guest like this, it is inevitable that she will lose face in Nalan Ci, Lin Baiqiu raised her head when she heard this, but she never thought that she would see so many people, and even her own father.

Lin Baiqiu panicked at the moment, she smiled awkwardly and didn't speak, but she didn't want to be let go by Rusu:

"Lord Wang, I heard that the hairpin that the Taishi gave to Jinzhi was owed by Wu here, so the princess specially asked Wu Yao, so she personally came over to help Jinzhi find the hairpin."

Lin Baiqiu froze in place after Rusu's words, if Nalan Ci came back alone, such a statement would definitely make Nalan Ci pay more attention to her, but now that so many ministers are here, such a statement will simply kill her.
