Gao Ziang knelt on the ground for a long time, and his legs were a little numb.

But my father didn't tell me to get up, and I couldn't move. After all, he came to beg his father at first, and he has been kneeling ever since.

At this time, Gao Junming, who was pacing in the room, seemed to think of something again: "There are twenty elite guards in the Li Mansion. ”

Gao Ziang did transfer twenty elite soldiers to guard the Li Mansion. He didn't use his own men, not for Wanning, he didn't want to. Instead, he put the elite soldiers in a conspicuous place, and some people will stay away when they see that there are elite soldiers guarding them.

In fact, his men are all in the house. However, the elite soldiers standing guard are indeed too blatant.

Knowing that he was guilty, he slowly lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

This kind of thing is a big deal in Gao Junming's opinion, and he must teach him a lesson: "It is a great grace for the emperor to allow you to call more than 100 elite soldiers at any time, in order to facilitate your actions outside the palace." It's you, do you take the emperor for a fool? You are on an errand under him, and you use one of his soldiers, will he not know? If he pursues you for being a woman who has transferred troops without authorization, will he still let you lead the troops? ”

Looking at Gao Ziang, who bowed his head, he added: "You are not using your guards, you are transferring troops privately!" If you transfer troops for a woman privately, if this matter is investigated, your crime can be big or small! ”

In the face of Gao Junming's reproach, Gao Ziang knew that he was speechless, and only said slowly: "If the emperor blames, he will be punished." ”

Of course he has to be punished, can't he run away, he can run away from the monk, he can't run away from the temple, the entire Gao family can be here! Of course, it shouldn't be so serious, and it's still too late to stop the precipice.

Gao Junming said sternly: "For my father, I will send you another ten top masters in the rivers and lakes, and you will withdraw those twenty elite soldiers!" ”

Gao Zi said in a low voice: "Thank you father." ”

Of course, there was a purpose for his father to be so generous, and after a while, he said: "The son promised his father that he would not easily mention the reduction of Li Wanying to a concubine in the future. ”

In front of his father, Gao Ziang could only give in, which was also for Wanning's sake to a certain extent.

If he insists on letting Wanning enter the mansion as a wife at this time, he will not only disobey his father, but also make his father disgusted with Wanning. And if you follow your father's wishes, it turns out that your father accepted Wanning, not just to marry the Li family as before.

As long as Wanning is willing to enter the palace as a concubine, everything will be fine. Gao Ziang thought to himself, he had to convince Wanning quickly. After knowing what she has been thinking about, Wanning will no longer be cranky.

Of course, in the end, he still has to rely on Wanning in his future life, not just taking care of the present. What's more, Wanning lost her parents at this time, and Gao Ziang really couldn't wait to take her to Gaofu at this time.

It will be Wanning's birthday in a few days, she will definitely not have it, and she can't give it to her, so she can only wait for the next year.

But on Wanning's birthday, Gao Ziang was uncomfortable. Since her uncle and aunt left, there have been no festivals in Wanning's world.

Of course, this time it was not to celebrate her birthday, but just to use this opportunity to show herself. Because, no matter what you do, it's always weird and abrupt.

He called Yi'er to his eyes to see if he had any ideas.

Yi'er saw that he seemed to be worried, so he asked, "Young Master, do you have any knots in your heart?" ”

"You don't know what day it is?"

"What day?" Yi'er was puzzled.

"Today is Wanning's birthday."

Yi'er suddenly realized that he remembered Wanning's birthday, but there were too many things recently, and he didn't think about it for a while.

"Oh, Miss Wanning used to be lively every birthday, and when we celebrate her birthday, we will only bring back some painful memories for her. The most important thing is that it is impossible for her to celebrate her birthday right now. ”

Gao Ziang agreed: "You're right, but I always have to show it." Do you want to call the housekeeper and a few of them to have a meal together? ”

Yi'er looked at him with a smile and said, "Young Master, this is not the warmest thing that makes people feel the most. At this time, Miss Wanning does not necessarily like to be lively. Simplicity is the most moving, like home. ”

Under Yi'er's nodding, Gao Ziang finally had an idea. "I don't want to be with Wanning and live a simple and simple life."

Yi'er was shocked, it was really incredible for the eldest young master to say this.

Gao Ziang couldn't wait to come to the Li Mansion after finishing his work in the morning, he hoped to catch up before Wanning's lunch.

He came to the kitchen, where everyone was just getting ready to cook.

Gao Ziang asked the guy in the kitchen: "Does Wanning have a designated lunch for anything?" ”

"Miss didn't say it, usually as long as the food we cook is delicious, Miss won't complain."

Gao Ziangping retired the other guys, leaving only one person and teaching him to make a bowl of noodles. He wanted to cook for Wanning by himself, and he didn't expect to go to the kitchen one day.

The first bowl I made, because it took too long to cook, the noodles were sticky together. The second bowl was half-cooked again. The guy couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to teach him by hand.

After working for most of the day, I finally cooked a bowl of noodles that could be served on the table.

Wan Ning sat at the dinner table and wondered for a long time, what happened to today's cook? Always on time, never like this. She was about to send Yan'er to take a look, but she saw Gao Ziang come in with a bowl of noodles.

He looked at his "masterpiece" and proudly showed off: "My brother personally cooked it for you." ”

Wan Ning was stunned and asked, "Why do you want to cook noodles yourself?" ”

"Today is your birthday."

Wan Ning suddenly realized that she had forgotten the day she was born.

It was a bowl of longevity noodles with a few floating leaves and an egg lying on it. Wan Ning looked at him, sweating profusely, and hadn't had time to wipe it yet.

She pulled out a brocade and wiped his forehead.

When she turned her face to see him, her eyes couldn't help but moisten, and she leaned on his shoulder, shedding a few crystal tears.

"What's the matter? Isn't it just a bowl of noodles? I can make Sister Wan cry. Gao Ziang wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "If you don't eat it, the noodles will be cold." ”

Wan Ning asked with a smile with tears on her face, "The eldest young master cooked it himself?" ”

"Hmm."

"My brother cooked it himself, and I also ate it cold."

Gao Ziang deeply felt the hard work of cooking, and sighed: "It's not! I've never served anyone, brother! But as long as Wanning likes it, her brother can cook for you from time to time. ”

"How can a man go around the stove? Forget it. "In the past, her mother cooked longevity noodles for her, but now he is like a relative. Wan Ning said gratefully: "Brother, it's good to have you, thank you." ”

Wan Ning was embraced into a familiar embrace: "Silly girl, my brother will always be by your side and will always guard you." ”

After a while, Wanning finished eating noodles and leaned on his arms, unwilling to leave. He took out a beautiful jade carving and said, "It's too unreasonable for you to celebrate your birthday, not to give you a gift." ”

Wan Ning was taken aback, and her tone was refusal: "This is too precious." ”

"I know that my sister likes silver jewelry and jade, and it is not surprising that all the valuable items are almost covered by you, so there is a shortage of such a jade."

Wan Ning did like it, but she felt it was too precious and didn't want it, and she didn't want to refuse him. Hesitating, she reluctantly took it.

This beauty sculpture was given to Li Zhenghang at first in order to seek official status, but he didn't ask for it, and was later asked by Gao Junming. Now Gao Ziang gave it to Wan Ning, turned around, and it was in Wan Ning's hands again.
