She flipped through them one by one, they were love letters, but they weren't all of them.

There are feelings that haunt him for two lifetimes, and there are also letters between her and him.

The earliest letter dates back to her fourteenth birthday, when he wrote, "May Your Highness be safe and happy, free from illness and disaster."

There was also a note with the words "Strive to add food" to it.

Shen Zhixi couldn't help laughing, Gu Yuan knew that she was a picky eater, so he left her such a sentence.

It means that you should eat well and not get sick.

There were one or two annotations on every letterhead she wrote to Gu Yuan, which was nothing more than trivial things such as "Has Your Highness grown taller recently" and "Has Your Highness eaten well", but every word moved her.

How unforgettable is the affection that wants to say goodbye, so that everything she gives him will be carefully treasured?

She was thinking about it, and Ming Qing next to her saw that she was stunned, and called softly: "Your Highness? ”

Shen Zhixi came back to her senses: "What's the matter?" ”

"There's another letter you haven't read." Ming Qing handed Shen Zhixi the letter that had been placed next to the box at the beginning.

She opened the envelope, and the familiar thin gold book came into view, and there was no doubt that it was Gu Yuan.

There is only one line on it.

"Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, wait for me in the forest garden outside the city at dusk."

The payment is Gusu Gu Linxi.

Shen Zhixi could already think of the resentful eyes of the prince of Qin.

However, with Gu Yuan's handwriting, it will definitely give her some unexpected surprises.

As for what kind of surprise it was, she couldn't say for a while.

When the lantern was in charge, Shen Zhixi went to Shanglin Garden, and as she expected, Gu Yuan was waiting outside Shanglin Garden.

"Tonight, what night, see this beloved." Gu Yuan's voice was dyed with a light smile, tugging at the girl's heartstrings, "Minister Gu Yuan wishes His Highness auspicious birthday!" ”

Shen Zhixi couldn't help but smile: "You said you wanted to surprise me, you have guessed many times when you came, but it seems that everything is possible." ”

Gu Yuan pretended to smile mysteriously: "Your Highness, you might as well guess again?" ”

"Hmm...... You're not going to tear down someone's garden, are you? Shen Zhixi raised her eyebrows.

Gu Yuan gently took off the azure hairband on her head, and slowly covered her eyes with the ribbon: "Wait a minute, Qi'er will know." ”

He rarely called her directly in small words like that.

Thinking like this, Shen Zhixi couldn't help but slightly hook the corners of her lips.

However, she immediately thought of a question: "You won't really demolish Shen Chengyi's Shanglin Garden and rebuild it, right?" ”

Gu Yuan smiled helplessly: "Your Highness, don't worry, if I demolish Shanglin Yuan, Shen Chengyi will dare to demolish me." ”

Only then did Shen Zhixi follow him with confidence.

"However, Shanglin Yuan is very large." Gu Yuan added, "If I renovate a small corner, he shouldn't mind." ”

Shen Zhixi: "......"

When Gu Yuan gently untied the hairband covering her eyes, Shen Zhixi couldn't believe that the scene in front of her was not what she had seen with her own eyes.

Gu Yuan actually restored the county lord's mansion where she lived in those years when she lived as Yuan Changge!

There are plane trees in the courtyard, six pine trees are planted all over the courtyard wall, there is a peach tree next to her residence, and then there is a huge condensation pond, and there is even a swing......

If one wasn't in Luoyang and the other was in Yandu, she would have thought that this was her original Luoyin Courtyard.

But that's not all.

A firework order was released in Gu Yuan's sleeve, and thousands of bright lights rose in response, each lantern was decorated with tassels, and of course, there were small notes hanging from it.

"This palace is curious, you have so many official duties to deal with every day, how did you think of celebrating my birthday?" Shen Zhixi smiled lightly.

Gu Yuan smiled and pointed to his heart: "Your Highness, look here." ”

The corners of Shen Zhixi's lips hooked slightly: "Someone with a heart? ”

Gu Yuan smiled and nodded: "Your Highness, please listen." ”

"Listen to what?"

"Huai Jin holds Yu, and the wind is up."

Shen Zhixi frowned: "You mean Tang Xiujin?" ”

Gu Yuan took her into his arms and smiled softly: "Your Highness is Jinyu in my arms." ”

Jinyu is a beautiful jade.

His Royal Highness is also the beautiful jade that Ah Yuan treasures in his heart.

"Ah Yuan, what did you write on those little notes?" The girl wondered.

Gu Yuan rubbed her little head and said softly: "Every lamp is different, do you want me to read the above content for His Highness?" ”

Shen Zhixi smiled lightly: "That's naturally excellent. ”

Gu Yuan smiled and stroked her cheek, and said softly: "Zhu Yan looks similar, with flowers and branches on his head, year after year." ”

"I am fortunate to be the same grass and trees all my life, and I am happy every year."

"There is nothing to do in the spring of the year, and there is always a jade face when we meet."

Shen Zhixi couldn't help but interrupt his lyricism: "Did you silence these words in advance?" ”

Gu Yuan looked back and smiled.

The starry eyes rippled with the vigor of a teenager.

"May the next 8,000 years be like this year, like this year."

"Your Highness, I wish you peace and joy, and I hope we will see each other every year."

——

At the same time, the dark room under the yamen of the military department.

Thirteen Nights looked at Yang Yi in a daze, and said, "Why did Mr. let Ah Yuan come to see me?"

Yang Yi coughed a few times: "You and him have been friends for many years after all, and you should meet him." ”

Thirteen Nights: My face is ruined...... See you again?

Yang Yi sighed, "When you reach my age, you will know that some people will see one side less than one side." Yelu Chucai and I used to be good friends, and now we ......."

The old man shook his head, "Forget it, don't talk about him, you have to know that Ah Yuan is still your friend at least now." ”

Thirteen Night gestures: Pei Wenqi is my brother, isn't he just as poisonous and dumb as my throat?

Yang Yi suddenly shouted: "Pei Wenye! ”

The Lancang Pavilion Lord, whose real name is Pei Wenye, was stunned.

Yang Yi closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was already in tears.

"Can you try again and trust the people around you?"

——

Shen Zhixi slept in Shanglin Yuan all night, and was urgently summoned into the palace by Shen Heng as soon as it was dawn.

At the same time, there were also those who were ordered to enter the palace, as well as Gu Yuan, who was nominally the secretary of the Criminal Department but had always been regarded by Yang Yi as the successor of the Ministry of War.

When a few people arrived, Shen Heng was almost asleep with his head in one hand, and he was a little awake when he saw his sister and others coming.

Shen Zhixi noticed that Shen Heng's dark circles were very heavy, and he estimated that he hadn't slept well all night.

She was still thinking about it, and the little emperor waved his hand to retreat from the inner servant, and said slowly: "I have been thinking about it for a long time, the war in Liaodong is urgent, and someone needs to be in charge. ”

As soon as the words fell, Gu Yuan came out of the column with a wat board in his hand and said: "As the commander of the Beiyang Naval Division, Gu Yuan is also the secretary of the Criminal Department, and he is willing to ask the emperor for war!" ”

The two squires of the military department glanced at each other, and at the same time they also went out to ask for battle.

Shen Heng said lightly: "Since this is the case, I will play." ”

Out of the main hall, Shen Zhixi looked at Gu Yuan beside him, "Originally, I didn't want you to go to the front line in person. ”

Gu Yuan chuckled: "In Mr.'s layout, my position is not important. The seat of this superintendent can be those veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time, or it can also be upstart generals like me, Lu Ran, or even Zhao Jianghuai, who is sitting in Jinling. ”

Speaking of this, Gu Yuan stared at her, "But I want to try." ”

Shen Zhixi looked at the young man in front of him with a blank expression for some reason.

His eyes were so good-looking, as if they were dissolving into the moonlight.

After a long time, she still asked, "Are you sure?" ”

Gu Yuan stretched his sleeves, bowed down and said, "The minister will not disgrace his mission." ”

Shen Zhixi nodded and said, "That's good, with your words, I can always rest assured." ”

The young man's figure gradually moved away, and when he was about to step out of the palace gate, Shen Zhixi suddenly called him: "Ah Yuan! ”

Gu Yuan turned to look at her, "What else is the matter with Your Highness?" ”

"I'll wait for you to come home."
