In Gu Mansion before, he helped Su Li, purely out of sympathy, in his heart, Su Li was like another him in the world, no one cared, no one liked him, helpless, lonely and desperate.

Because she was several years younger than himself, and she was born thin and immature, he never regarded her as an adult woman, but only felt that she was a poor and helpless little sister, which made people feel pity when they saw it, and couldn't help but want to help.

Later, Su Li's personality changed greatly, and he insisted on reconciling with Gu Mingxuan, and brought the matter to the court, a weak little girl, but she had such courage, so that he couldn't help but respect her.

After that, she treated his eyes, helped her get out of trouble, and introduced him to the Su family, making him feel the harmony and cordiality with his family for the first time in his life.

At that time, in his heart, he regarded her as his own relative, he had no brothers-in-law, so he regarded her as his sister-in-law, his heart was full of love and pity, and there was indescribable closeness and warmth.

But when did this relationship change?

Gu Qiancheng himself couldn't say clearly, perhaps, it was from the day the people in the capital began to create rumors about him and Su Li, so that he realized that he and Su Li, in the eyes of outsiders, could also be a couple.

Or, from the banks of the Qunfangyuan River, when she looked at him, her sweet and delicate smiling face made his heart flutter and give birth to greed.

These emotions are mixed together, and I didn't feel anything at first, after all, he is no longer a young man, and he has long passed the age of thinking about anyone, even if he is intentionally moved, his face is still dripping.

He thought at the time that even for the sake of Su Li's reputation, he would never reveal his feelings.

At that time, he thought that he had only been an adult for too long, and he was not accompanied by a woman of the right age, and he longed for the amiable and approachable woman around him, but it was out of male instinct, and it was not true.

Such desires will soon disappear, like a spring dream, without a trace.

But he overestimated himself, some things, at that time, were just ordinary, but when he reacted, he was already deep in the mud.

The moment he saw Xiao Rin encircling Su Li in his arms, he was crazy with jealousy, and his heart was surging with endless remorse, hating why he was so dull and why he didn't confess early, he regretted that his intestines were blue, and he couldn't help but find Su Li and ask her about the relationship between Xiao Rin.

The moment he got Su Li's negative answer, he was crazy with joy, and he made up his mind at that time, after leaving the palace, he would definitely tell his intentions, but before he could figure out how to speak, he saw Xiao Rin hugging Su Li again.

And Su Li didn't push him away.

No, not only did she not push him away, but she was also deeply obsessed, and when he saw her eyes that were both disgusted and happy, he knew that he had no chance!

There are some things that the authorities are confused about, and the bystanders are clear.

Su Li felt that he and Xiao Rin were not a good match, and it was impossible, but they were both men, he could see Xiao Rin's domineering and determination, and he could also see the joy and shyness in Su Li's eyes.

They have affection for each other, share weal and woe, go in and out together, and they are a pair of wall people who can't be matched!

And he ......

Gu Qiancheng smiled self-deprecatingly.

What does he compare to Xiao Rin?

Whether it is the strength of his family background, or his appearance and figure, he can't compare!

Xiao Rin is the pride of the sky, but he is the abandoned son of the Hou Mansion, if it weren't for Su Li's introduction, Xiao Rin would value him, I'm afraid that until now, he is still running his broken library, what will he give Su Li happiness?

Not to mention, Su Li has always been frank and frank with him, and sometimes even if he deliberately has any physical contact with her, she is also clear-eyed and doesn't do anything he thinks.

This is completely different from the situation when she was close to Xiao Rin.

Gu Qiancheng has grown up to such a big age, although he has never liked anyone, and he can't say that he understands women, but he can still tell the difference between them.

Su Li treats him just like he treated Su Li before, he really treats him as his brother, and he has no personal feelings!

As soon as he realized his feelings, everything had to come to an abrupt end.

During this time, Gu Qiancheng had been immersed in this workshop, deliberately not looking for Su Li, and deliberately no longer inquiring about any news about her.

He believes that with Xiao Rin here, he will be able to protect her well.

And the only thing he can do for her is to hold on to his unsightly ideas, be her brother, help her future husband, and protect this great depression, so that they can always be happy.

After all these busy days, it has finally paid off, and if this warship is built, it will surely deter the nations, so that they will not dare to attack again!

Gu Qiancheng looked up at the little lights in the distance, exhaled softly, spit out the sluggish turbidity in his chest, and was about to walk away, but he heard a craftsman chatting beside him.

"You said that the daughters of the Gao family and the Qi family are so thick-skinned, and they are actually shouting to force His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to accept them as concubines! And got into so much trouble!"

"Not really! Miss Su is so difficult! When His Royal Highness was in danger, he didn't see anyone to fight, but now that his body is better and the situation is stable, one or two, they all want to get a piece of the pie!"

"But they can't be blamed! His Royal Highness's refusal to accept the palace concubine is indeed against the ancestral system! Don't say it's royal, even if it's our ordinary family, don't you want to have more concubines and add more people! Somebody has money! Miss Su has worked hard, but Her Royal Highness has promised her the position of queen, which can be regarded as a return for the peach!"

"Having said that, but Your Highness doesn't want to take a concubine, what's the matter with Miss Guan Su? These officials and nobles can't resist His Highness, so they put all this evil fire on Miss Su, which is a bit too much!"

"That's right! Miss Su is really sitting at home, and disaster comes from heaven! Ming Zhen poisoned the four girls, but in the end, it wasn't Miss Su's hard work to detoxify?"

"That's it, I have to be scolded by them! Those officials actually said that Miss Su deliberately poisoned them, and if they came to detoxify again, they would be subdued in this way! It's not bullying!"

Gu Qiancheng was shocked when he heard this, and stepped forward to ask, "What you said is true?"

"Master Gu!" When several craftsmen saw him, they hurriedly stood up and saluted, and one of them replied, "Don't dare to talk nonsense! Now it's spread all over the capital!"

"It's spread all over the capital?" Gu Qiancheng was taken aback again, "When did that happen?"

"I heard that the two noble ladies slandered Miss Su on the street in the morning! We don't know exactly when! By the way, Master Gu, isn't Miss Su your sister-in-law? It's been a whole day, and you haven't heard any wind?"

Gu Qiancheng shook his head, knowing that these people were also hearsay, and they might not know the exact news, so he didn't ask any more, turned around and left, he wanted to enter the palace directly, but it was already dark, and the palace gate had already been spooned, so he thought about it and went directly to Su Mansion.
