The winter in the capital is particularly long, so when spring arrives, various banquets will often be held among the famous families in the capital, especially keen to go out of the city.

It was at this time that Gu Qingyou met Chu Muzhi.

At that time, Chu Muzhi was not yet the king of Qin. When several princes appeared together, the elegance and nobility of the four princes who were all talked about by the famous ladies around her were the lazy and evil charms of the seven princes, but none of the eight princes mentioned it. Originally, this was nothing, but a few of the young ladies quarreled because they felt that the four princes or the seventh princes they followed were more attractive, and the big movement naturally alarmed several princes, as well as the famous sons who gathered around several princes.

It is not appropriate for the ladies who have not left the cabinet to talk about men, and it is okay to talk secretly behind their backs on weekdays, but today they were listened to by most of the famous sons in Beijing, and among them were the two princes who were involved.

Gu Qingyou still remembers the pale faces of those young ladies at that time.

At this moment, the Eighth Prince, who had been ignored by them, suddenly stood up, touched the tip of his nose, and said with a smile, "I pricked up my ears and eavesdropped for a long time, but no one mentioned me, and every time at this time, I really want to get back into the belly of the concubine and let her reinstate me." At the end, he winked at them again and said, "In order to appease the pride of this prince, next time, when you talk about my fourth brother and seventh brother, can you take me with you a little?" ”

In just a few words, the embarrassment around disappeared cleanly.

She still remembered the smile in his eyes when he said this, no self-pity, no anger and embarrassment, only the clear smile in his eyes from beginning to end, like the clearest spring in the mountains, quietly poured into her heart when she was unaware.

Actually, that was a long time ago, but now that she thinks about it, it always feels like it was yesterday. Perhaps, she thought, this is what she likes. Just thinking of the smile in his eyes, she felt as sweet as honey in her heart.

She couldn't resist the sweetness.

It's just that she can't open her mouth to Gu An with these words, because, in her father's eyes, all love is a joke, and he has no way to understand it, and the only thing he can understand is how to let each of his women exchange it for him for greater benefits.

Gu An looked at this daughter who was stubbornly kneeling in front of him but refused to say a soft word, and the anger that had just been suppressed in his chest suddenly surged up again, "Gu Qingyou, don't you have a word to say to me?" ”

Gu Qingyou didn't move.

Gu An stood up suddenly, "Okay! Good! Good! Sure enough, it's my good daughter raised by Gu An! I have spent so much effort to raise you, and I have hired the best teacher for you, teaching you piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and teaching you poetry and songs! Even more attentive to you than to your brother! But you, what are you giving me in return! ”

Thinking that Gu Qingyou's actions today not only made the Gu family miss the position of the crown princess, but also more likely to miss the throne of the queen of the mother of a country, Gu An felt that his chest had been slashed fiercely, and bright red blood flowed straight out along the wound.

Thinking of this, Gu An finally couldn't help it, raised his hand and swept it over with another slap, "Okay, you've grown up, and your wings are stiff!" Now, even my father doesn't care about it anymore! Gu Anmi's eyes widened, and then shouted out the door, "Someone." ”

The two girls who had been guarding outside hurriedly walked in.

"From this day onwards you watch her twenty-four hours a day, and you will not allow her to give her anything to eat, nor let her die! I want to see how hard her bones are! After Gu An finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves hard, raised his legs and walked out angrily.

As soon as Gu An left, the two girls hurriedly walked over and helped Gu Qingyou up.

Looking at the bright red palm prints on Gu Qingyou's face, a girl cried on the spot, "Miss, why are you so troubled." ”

Gu Qingyou didn't speak, she looked at Gu An's back as she slammed the door, and her heart was inexplicably a little weird.

Late at night.

Chao'an Temple.

Xiao Xiwei and Yan Guifei leaned on the warm couch side by side, with a black wood table in the middle, and a few plates of dried fruits were placed on the black wood table, and a charcoal basin was placed not long in front of them, and the silver silk charcoal in it was burning vigorously, and a spark burst out from time to time.

At this time, the door curtain moved, and Ruosu bent down and entered.

"What, it's all settled?" As soon as she came in, Yan Guifei straightened up.

Ruosu nodded, "It's all settled." ”

"Did you hear anything?" Concubine Yan said busily.

Ruo Su frowned and shook his head, "Those people are very tight-mouthed and refuse to say anything. ”

After listening to Ruosu's words, Yan Guifei's eyebrows tightened more and more, and she hurriedly turned her head and moved her gaze to Xiao Xiwei opposite, "Wei'er, what do you mean by him sending someone to pick Ye'er down the mountain this time?" Isn't it, he wants to be bad for Ye'er? ”

Speaking of this, Yan Guifei only felt a twitch in her heart, and a strong uneasiness welled up.

Xiao Xiwei's hand on the brocade quilt tightened, and a cold light flashed through his cold eyes.

Now that Chu Yanzhi has been made the crown prince, the emperor wants to take Tianye back to the palace at this time, and he has to put a full moon wine for him, if he is still 'alive', then the emperor's actions are not surprising, but now that he is already a 'dead man' in their eyes, then his purpose of taking Tianye back to the palace is a little strange? Unless, what can Tianye's body be used by the emperor? But Tianye is still a child who is not full-term, except for one who can be used, only the identity of the prince of Yan Wang is ......

Or, does the emperor want to use Tianye to contain the people who supported him in the past?

No! Wrong!

Xiao Xiwei quickly denied his idea, because Chu Yanzhi has now been made the crown prince, and many people from the Regret faction have already voted under Chu Yanzhi, even if Chu Muzhi has replaced the position of Regret, he has no strength to compete with Chu Yanzhi.

So? What did the emperor want to do with Ye'er?

Seeing that Xiao Xiwei didn't speak for a long time, Concubine Yan couldn't help but be a little anxious, "No matter what he thinks, I will never allow my Ye'er to fall into his hands." ”

"Mother, don't worry." Seeing that there was a faint trace of tears in Concubine Yan's eyes, Xiao Xi hurriedly put away her thoughts, turned her head and comforted her in a low voice, "Father-in-law Zhang will definitely find a way to pass the news over, I guess it's time to come back at night." As long as we figure out his intentions, there will always be a way to deal with it. ”

Seeing Xiao Xiwei so calm, Concubine Yan gradually stabilized her mind.

The Chao'an Temple in the middle of the night is even more secluded, only the cold wind in the forest keeps whistling, blowing through the clumps of green bamboo in the courtyard to make a 'rustling' sound.

Time passed bit by bit, Biyun, who was with Xiao Xiwei, had yawned several times, and his face was tired, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were leaning on the couch still did not see a trace of sleepiness on their faces.

They were all anxiously waiting for someone in their hearts.

Finally, the curtain that had been hanging quietly moved, and a black figure walked in.

"Night, you're back." Seeing the visitor, Ziyan's eyes lit up, she hurriedly walked over and said, "The princess and the concubine have been waiting for you for almost the whole night." ”

There was no expression on Ye Leng's face, he walked up to Xiao Xiwei and knelt on one knee, "Princess, the emperor intends to let the prince succeed to the throne of King Yan, and he has already started to make the Internal Affairs Office plan to be titled." ”

"What? Succeeding to the throne of King Yan? Yan Guifei's brows furrowed, and she hurriedly moved her gaze to Xiao Xiwei, "Wei'er, what does he mean by this?" ”

Xiao Xi's eyebrows gradually frowned, and a cold coldness flashed out in his eyes as he looked at the night, "What else did Grandpa Zhang say?" ”

Ye raised his head and looked directly at Xiao Xiwei's voice, "Father-in-law Zhang said that before the emperor wanted to marry the prince, the prince of Lu Guo had been to the Chongde Palace. ”

"Lu Haiyang." Xiao Xi's eyes narrowed, and a faint trace of cold light crossed by, but soon, it disappeared in the depths of his eyes. She raised her eyebrows and looked at the night again, "You just said that the emperor wants to marry the crown prince?" ”

Ye nodded his hand, and then briefly recounted what happened in the Zichen Hall during the day in front of Xiao Xiwei.

Yan Guifei listened to the words of the night, her eyebrows gradually twisted into a knot, the hand on the brocade quilt was tightly clenched into a fist, and the sharp nails left a deep pain on the skin, but she didn't seem to notice it at all.

"What the hell was his idea? Didn't Chu Yanzhi hold the position of prince with one hand? Now, why are you using my Ye'er to contain him? Ye'er is just a full-term child! Is he really not thinking about his old feelings at all? Yan Guifei said, and her tears suddenly couldn't help falling.

It's not that she doesn't know that he is ruthless, but now she can't threaten him anymore? Everything is as he wants, why, he still wants to involve her Ye'er! Ye'er, he's still a baby who doesn't understand anything? Didn't he think about putting Ye'er in that position, how many guns and arrows would be waiting for Ye'er underneath? He has sacrificed his son, is he still going to harm her grandson?

When he promised to let her out of the palace and come to Chao'an Temple, she still had a little luck in her heart, maybe he didn't love her, but she was still a little different in his eyes, but now, ......

Hehe......

She's the biggest fool in the world!

How could she believe that man would have affection for her! No, maybe he has, but that's only because she has nothing left, and she can't threaten him anymore, so he will 'compassionately' give her so much guilt and pity, and the funny thing is that she actually defended him over and over again in her heart because of this little charity......

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt as if someone was holding a sharp dagger and kept slashing at her chest, and the heart-wrenching pain made her speechless, only tears, which became her only outlet to preach.

Not only did Yan Guifei feel desperate, but Xiao Xiwei also felt a chill in her heart.

This is the emperor!

In order to pave the way for Chu Yanzhi, he gave up the other two sons without hesitation, and now, the former prince Chu Jingzhi and Xizhi finally made way for Chu Yanzhi, and he was afraid that the son he had raised would threaten his status, so he brought Ye'er in to contain Chu Yanzhi? Has he ever thought about what this means to Ye'er? Perhaps, he thought about it, but he didn't care at all......
