Chapter 17 17. Tablet
Gu Lian didn't speak.Jiang Shuyao knew it was the default.

There is only one memorial tablet left for the once famous beauty.It's really a pity that the beauty is dead and the beauty is unlucky.

Jiang Shuyao instinctively wanted to comfort him, but felt that what she said at this time seemed pale and weak, so it was better not to mention it deliberately.

So, after a moment of silence, Jiang Shuyao pretended to be naive and said, "Can you please offer a stick of incense to Mrs. Lu?"

She didn't quite know whether Gu Lian had found out the truth of his mother's death at this time.But thinking of his hatred for King Jing in the future, he deliberately didn't call her Princess Jing.Moreover, Jiang Shuyao felt that even if he didn't know the truth, Gu Lian should have guessed something.

After all...Jiang Shuyao looked at the incense burner in front of the memorial tablet, and there was only one incense stick in it, presumably it was made by Gu Lian.

King Jing loves to maintain his affectionate personality so much, it is impossible that he would not even offer incense to his wife.It could only be that Gu Lian was unwilling.

Come to think of it, the Lu family doesn't want to bear the name of King Jing anymore even though they are under the Nine Springs.

Perhaps her title is very rare, Gu Lian took a deep look at her, and agreed: "If Miss Jiang Si is willing, she can do it."

Jiang Shuyao lit a stick of incense, raised her hands reverently above her head, and wanted to insert it into the incense burner in front of the tablet.Then I found that she couldn't reach it!

Jiang Shuyao was a little embarrassed.All she wanted was to offer incense to Gu Lian's mother, but she ignored her own height.This time, she held up the incense, she didn't put it down, and it didn't matter if she didn't let it go, it was extremely embarrassing.

Regardless of whether she would be seen or not, Jiang Shuyao quietly tiptoed, and then found that she was still a little bit close.

Jiang Shuyao was a little frustrated.She really didn't know what to do.She can't jump up and plug in the incense, can she?Not to mention whether it would be disrespectful for someone to see it, it is extremely disrespectful behavior just in the mourning hall.

Just when Jiang Shuyao felt helpless, her body suddenly flew into the air. She looked back and found that Gu Lian had stood up at some point.And she was hugged by Gu Lian.

Jiang Shuyao was surprised, and asked, "Will this be bad?"

Gu Lian didn't care: "It was my negligence. Sincerity leads to success, don't stick to formalities." Afraid of her uneasiness, Gu Lian added: "Since Miss Jiang Si is sincere, I think my mother won't blame her."

After he said so, Jiang Shuyao no longer struggled.With her body in the air, she inserted the incense respectfully.In the incense burner, there is no longer just a single incense stick.

Madam Lu, may you bless Gu Lian and your daughter, and keep them safe from being killed by scum like Xue Qiong.

Afterwards, Gu Lian put her down, and Jiang Shuyao took the opportunity to leave.Judging by the degree of burning of the incense, Gu Lian should not have been here for long.Come to think of it, he still had a lot to say to his mother, Jiang Shuyao couldn't bother too much.

Gu Lian watched her walk towards the door.Her age easily reminded him of his five-year-old sister.The little girl in front of her is smart and well-behaved, very attractive.And my sister...

Gu Lian suppressed the hatred roiling in his heart, watched Jiang Shuyao step out of the palace gate, and saw her turn her head and smile at him when she took the last step: "Gu Shizi, we will meet again by fate."

Strangely, his heart was so peaceful.

After she rubbed his younger brother's head, and then took his hand and disappeared from his sight, Gu Lian turned back to the main hall and knelt on the futon.His mother was happy, so he specially ordered that the door of this temple should not be closed during the day.Over the years, most people who have come to the temple know that no one will wander into this place by mistake.Jiang Shuyao was the first person other than him to come here to offer incense.

Jiang Shuyao was right. Although Gu Lian hadn't found any evidence, he had almost pieced together the truth.I only hate that he is not strong enough to avenge the Lu family immediately.But... Gu Lian looked at his mother's tablet.Take your time, he will make them pay.

Just now when the angry and painful emotions were interrupted, Gu Lian stopped talking and started chatting with his mother about something else.In front of outsiders, the son of Prince Jing's mansion, who was silent and taciturn, still looked like an ordinary young boy in front of his mother.

"In the former days, I found the apprentice of the person known as 'the world's number one genius doctor'. With his treatment, my sister's health has improved recently. Maybe it won't be long before Xi'er can walk normally like other girls. "

Not to mention the time it takes for the disease to be cured, it will take a long time for Gu Xi to learn to walk.When Gu Lian said this, he just wanted his mother's spirit in the sky to be at ease.

"The little girl who just came to offer incense to you is the fourth girl from Xuanpinghou's Mansion. I saw her lively and cute, but well-behaved and sensible, so I thought, maybe she and Xi'er can become good sisters."

Speaking of this, the eyes of Jiang Shuyao when she looked at him seemed to appear in Gu Lian's eyes again.There is no fear, no timidity inside, just... a clarity that seems to be able to see through everything.He paused, and a smile subconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth: "If there is a chance, I must let Xi'er get to know her. Xi'er will definitely like her."

It's hard not to like that little girl.

When Jiang Shuyao took Jiang Yuan back, they had already washed up.

Incense is burned in the rooms of the temple.After staying in the house for a while, Jiang Shujing felt that her body was covered with the scent of sandalwood.

When Jiang Shuyao walked over, she was holding Jiang Shurou to let her smell her clothes, and asked her if it really smelled.

Jiang Shurou couldn't resist her, so she had to lower her head slightly, and sniffed lightly on her raised arm: "It seems that it is indeed contaminated with fragrance."

"Yo Yo," seeing her, Jiang Shujing grabbed her excitedly: "Where did you and Brother Yuan go just now? We thought you hadn't washed up yet."

Jiang Shuyao shook her head: "It's nothing, Brother Yuan just chased a bird. I was afraid that he would run away, so I followed."

When she went to communicate with Gu Lian in the hall just now, Jiang Yuan had been obediently waiting outside.Although she still ran around with Jiang Yuan, a bird that occasionally flew by, she never walked away.

So Jiang Shuyao couldn't help but praise Jiang Yuan's cuteness to them.So, Jiang Yuan was rubbed on the head by the sisters one by one.

Seeing that Jiang Shujing wanted to let herself smell her body, Jiang Shuyao changed the subject calmly: "Why hasn't mother come out yet?"

The original body grew slowly, obviously only one year younger than Jiang Shujing, but half a head smaller.If Jiang Shujing asked her to sniff her sleeves, Jiang Shuyao might have to face her flawed height again.

Jiang Shuyao could only comfort herself silently.It doesn't matter, I will grow again.

"My mother followed my father to find Master Mingshan." Jiang Shuhui who was on the side replied.
