Chapter 18: This little fat fish will swell
Gu Zijiu, who was full, completely forgot Jiang Jiuyuan's advice, not only was he not prepared to keep a low profile, but when he was in a good mood, he even wanted to pull the people of the Twelve Divisions to sing a song.
If it weren't for the fact that the people of the Twelve Divisions were too rigid and too mournful today, I am afraid that Gu Zijiu would really be completely famous.
Gu Zijiu gave up interacting with the Twelve Divisions and began to wander around the palace.
The Twelve Divisions and the Praetorian Guards in the palace were secretly competing, so everyone showed 120,000 points of spirit, if it weren't for Gu Zijiu being a person by Jiang Jiuyuan's side, I am afraid that she would have been arrested as a sneaky assassin long ago.
Today's birthday banquet is really lively, even if Gu Zijiu goes to the most remote place, he can go back to the original way with the festive atmosphere and noisy words.
Today, the important ministers of the court, the princes, and the envoys and princes of neighboring countries are all present, because the emperor has not yet appeared, so the whole atmosphere is quite relaxed.
A rare opportunity to make all the daughters in the boudoir ecstatic, each dressed up carefully, and began to try their best to get close to the man they liked.
Among them, Jin King Jiang Jiuyuan naturally made their first choice, but Jiang Jiuyuan was discussing with the emperor in the imperial study at this time, so the daughters were disappointed, but they also refused to let go of other opportunities.
This kind of formal banquet has always been a large-scale blind date, Gu Zijiu has seen a lot, and he doesn't think it's anything unusual, and he can't even be interested at all.
"Eh, Zi Jiu, why are you here?"
Before Gu Zijiu was stopped, he was about to destroy the flowers with his spicy hands, but his hands had already reached out to the blooming flowers and took them back stiffly.
She glanced back and responded, "The prince has been called to discuss matters." ”
Jiang Li didn't get up for a long time, and stayed in the palace for a while, and when he finally had to come out, he swayed out a little reluctantly, but he didn't expect to see Gu Zijiu as soon as he went out, so he was naturally very surprised.
Hearing his explanation, Gu Zijiu couldn't help but look up at the name of the palace: "So I've wandered to where you live?" ”
Jiang Li nodded, pointed to another dormitory not far away, and said, "That's where my eighth brother lives." ”
Gu Zijiu sighed twice and sighed: "It seems that Jiang Jiuyuan's identity is really useful, I have been around this palace for several places, and I haven't seen anyone stop me." ”
Jiang Li smiled and "snorted" and explained, "Of course! My fifth brother is the most promising person to inherit the throne, and those people who see the wind and rudder are naturally afraid! ”
Gu Zijiu subconsciously looked around, feeling that there should be nothing wrong with his memory, so he covered his mouth very speechlessly and pushed him aside.
"Zi Jiu, what's wrong?" This person in the Bisheng River still has no sense of crisis, and in this palace full of walls and ears, he can still talk about this kind of topic that will definitely kill his head if he is heard.
"I said, your name is Jiangli, and your brain is really poured into the river?"
Jiang Li liked to chat with Gu Zijiu very much, so he was very kind and shamelessly asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"Is your brain watering?"
Ordinary people will definitely realize that Gu Zijiu is scolding, even if they don't scold back, their faces may not be good-looking, but the brain circuits in the river are as strange as Gu Zijiu, hearing this, they tilted their heads to make a look of pouring water, and after a long time, they wondered: "No, but Zijiu, how do you know that I washed my hair yesterday?" ”
Gu Zijiu: "......"
She found that if she didn't make her words clear, Jiang Li wouldn't have realized what she was talking about.
"I mean, the crown prince is still here, and you openly talk about your fifth brother being the best heir to the throne, what if you are heard?"
Jiang Li didn't care much after hearing this, and gave Gu Zijiu a reassuring look.
"The eldest brother is cowardly, and he has been greedy for beauty over the years, and he has no political achievements, and the whole court and the central government have a lot of complaints about him, and even the eldest brother himself understands it in his heart."
"Is there anyone else talking about it as openly as you do?"
"Then I don't know, I can say whatever I want anyway. Whatever to do so much. ”
Gu Zijiu: "......" Oh, this dead-eyed child.
She pulled Jiang Li and walked in the direction of Jiang Chen's palace, and said very seriously as she walked: "I think you should go to Jiang Chen to dispense some medicine to cure your illness." ”
Jiang Li didn't understand the deep meaning, and couldn't help asking, "What's the disease?" ”
"A disease called being born as a prince but not knowing how to talk and losing his life."
Jiang Li disagreed, and retorted very reasonably: "But Zijiu, you have more words than me, so you are also sick!" ”
"Who are you scolding!"
“.…..” Jiang Li was very aggrieved when he was beaten.
Jiang Li and Jiang Chen have had a good relationship since childhood, so the dormitory is very close, and after walking for a while, they have already arrived at the main gate, and the guards who are guarding recognize Jiang Li, so they naturally dare not slack off, and immediately invite them in.
It can be seen that Jiang Li often comes to play with Jiang Chen.
"Where's the eighth brother?"
"Back to the words of the Seventh Prince, the prince is now in the medicine garden."
Jiang Li nodded and ran directly in the direction of the medicine garden.
It seems that because of Jiang Chen's joy and quietness, the deeper he goes, the fewer people there are, and in the end, he can't even see anyone.
Across the low wall, Gu Zijiu saw Jiang Chen's busy figure through the open window, looking at the appearance that seemed to be taking care of medicinal herbs, and couldn't help asking, "Don't you all have to go over to today's birthday banquet?" ”
"Even my father hasn't passed yet, what are we anxious about."
Gu Zijiu: "......" Don't you think your words are in the wrong order, boy?
Deeply worried about his IQ, Jiang Li walked in directly with Jiang Li, and Jiang Chen, who heard the movement, did not look up, but carefully removed a mature herb, and then glanced at the two of them lightly.
This glance seems to be a cold moon on the horizon, his temperament is cold, and his white clothes seem to be covered with a layer of light, no wonder the people blow the eighth prince into a fairy-like character.
However, such a non-worldly appearance is indeed very "immortal".
After Jiang Chen carefully placed the medicinal materials, he said, "What's the matter, it's too much to eat again?" ”
He looked at Gu Zijiu, his hand was already stretched out into his sleeve, the corner of Gu Zijiu's mouth twitched, and he quickly shook his head.
"Why do you carry digestive medicine with you?"
Jiang Chen didn't speak, just looked at her, and the meaning was already obvious.
Gu Zijiu: "......" actually thought that she would often eat up, which is simply an insult to her personality!
"I'm here to ask you to heal your seventh brother's brain."
Jiang Chen glanced at Jiang Li when he heard this, and continued to say lightly: "Give up, it's hopeless." ”
"Poof."
Gu Zijiu laughed.
Although Jiang Chen has a cold personality and doesn't seem to be easy to get along with, in fact, this person is very kind in his heart, he can have such extraordinary medical skills, and he can maintain a kind heart, in fact, in the bottom of his heart, Gu Zijiu admires him very much.
If you can study medicine for more than ten years, your future future will be limitless.
So in fact, like Jiang Li, she likes to chat with Jiang Chen.
"What about the fifth brother? Why aren't you with him? ”
Gu Zijiu had heard this question countless times, and she really wanted to roll her eyes speechlessly, she pursed her lips in disgust, facing Jiang Li and Jiang Chen, and finally decided to tell the truth: "Actually, I was in the imperial dining room just now. ”
Jiang Li and Jiang Chen squinted at her at the same time.
"You also know that I'm just a maid, if I eat at the birthday banquet, your emperor can't hack me to death?"
Jiang Li twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Zijiu, it turns out that you still know that you are a girl." ”
"What's wrong, incompetent?"
Jiang Li and Jiang Chen: "......"
There was a place to rest next to the medicine garden, with a few and two wooden chairs, Jiang Chen hurriedly brought them over, so as to stay away from his medicine garden.
He was not afraid of the turmoil in the river, but he was afraid that Gu Zijiu would suddenly have a brain and want to dig up his herbs and cook vegetables.
In order to prevent Gu Zijiu from having this thought, he immediately brewed a pot of medicinal tea dried with some kind of herb.
The smell is fragrant, but the taste is very bitter.
It's so bitter that I'm going to faint right away.
Sure enough, Gu Zijiu only took a sip in disgust and then put it aside and stopped moving.
Jiang Chen saw her look of disgust, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he listened to Jiang Li on the side and wondered: "Eighth brother, why is your pot of tea so bitter?" The medicinal tea you gave me in the past tasted very good. ”
Gu Zijiu was curious: "Really?" ”
"Of course, the medicinal tea prepared by the eighth brother has always tasted very good, sweet, strange and delicious."
Gu Zijiu was immediately pleasantly surprised: "Isn't that also delicious with medicinal food!?" ”
Jiang Chen, who still hasn't escaped: "......" Hehe.
The medicinal tea is so bitter that even Jiang Li, who has never been very picky, is a little disgusted, he can only hold the tea, smell the fragrance, and say: "Zijiu, how long have you been in the imperial dining room, will we still eat in a while?" ”
Gu Zijiu glanced at him and said speechlessly: "Do you think my stomach is a bottomless pit?" I ate a little bit of everything, and the imperial dining room continued to burn before I left, so it was impossible to starve you. ”
"Really?"
Gu Zijiu glared at him, raised his fist and shook it twice.
Jiang Li was amused and laughed, and when he saw her assurance, he was relieved.
"But do you cook so many dishes and eat them all? What a waste if you don't eat it all? ”
"Hey, you, don't worry, you won't eat it all."
"Then what do you say......" Gu Zijiu finally became interested when he heard him say this, and was about to ask carefully, when he suddenly felt a chill in his head, and instantly shivered.
Not only Gu Zijiu, but even Jiang Li let out a "huh", rubbed the goosebumps on his body, and looked towards the wooden door of the medicine garden with Gu Zijiu very tacitly.
Seeing Jiang Jiuyuan standing there, he looked at them with a smile.
Jiang Li shook, then remembered something, secretly poked Gu Zijiu's arm, and said softly: "Oh, I was careless, the eighth brother's medicine garden is very close to the imperial study, and the fifth brother's eyesight is good, so he must be hiding it from him." ”
Gu Zijiu: "......"
Not long after Jiang Jiuyuan arrived, the appearance that seemed to be smiling but not smiling made people unable to understand how much he had heard, but Jiang Jiuyuan's ability, there should be nothing to hide from him.
Gu Zijiu coughed lightly.
"Gu Zijiu, how diligent are you, this king just left, and you went to the imperial dining room."
Gu Zijiu climbed down the vine and said with a smile: "The early bird has worms to eat." ”
Jiang Jiuyuan's eyebrows jumped, and he said, "Is this king praising you?" ”
Jiang Li looked at Jiang Jiuyuan's questioning tone, and hurriedly explained for Gu Zijiu: "Fifth brother, didn't you leave Zijiu alone in the palace, her little girl was able to avoid so many guards to go to the imperial dining room to steal food, which is enough to show that Zijiu's ability is good!" ”
After Jiang Li finished speaking, he glanced at Jiang Chen again and motioned for him to say something as well.
Jiang Chen originally refused, but he was afraid that his medicine garden would be poisoned, so he quietly looked at his medicine garden and said, "And she hasn't eaten yet." ”
As soon as Gu Zijiu heard what they said, his eyebrows immediately raised proudly.
Jiang Jiuyuan saw that she was not only unrepentant, but also proud, and really didn't know whether to scold or laugh.
Is she too heartless or too stupid? I can't get angry with him all the time.
Jiang Jiuyuan pinched his eyebrows and sighed: "You don't have to intercede for her, if you keep talking, I'm afraid this little fat fish will swell." ”
Gu Zijiu: "Slightly." ”
Jiang Jiuyuan didn't have a problem with her, his face that had been tense for a long time was lost in an instant, and he was filled with laughter again, he walked over and pinched Gu Zijiu's cheek, and said angrily: "It's good that you don't eat the imperial dining room, the hour is coming soon, if there is no food by then, I will see how you clean it up." ”
“.…..” Since everyone has high hopes for her, shouldn't she simply pack up all the dishes just now?
Jiang Li saw that Jiang Jiuyuan didn't mean to question her, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, continued to hold the tea, and said, "Fifth brother, what is the father looking for you today?" Do you have to say it on the day of the birthday feast? ”
Jiang Jiuyuan glanced at Jiang Li, frowned, and said: "Today's birthday banquet, not only our Great Wei, but now the envoys and princes of the neighboring countries are all here, and they will all get together at that time. ”
Jiang Li let out an "ah", glanced at Jiang Chen, and hurriedly asked, "What did the father have to call you?" ”
Jiang Jiuyuan shook his head: "It's just because I'm worried and I want to find someone to be comfortable." ”
Jiang Li sighed for a while, then frowned, and said, "This Chai Yi is really, it's not a thing, it has harmed so many girls." ”
Gu Zijiu was also very dissatisfied with Chai Yi, and complained: "That's it, won't his conscience hurt." ”
Although she is usually not in shape, she still has a natural displeasure with this kind of bullying of women, and she is even so unhappy that she takes another sip of extremely bitter tea.
With hard work, Gu Zijiu calmed down.
"If I catch Chai Yi, none of you should stop me."
Jiang Jiuyuan glanced at her, but it was rare that he didn't say anything.
