Chapter 95
Jiang Shuyao herself was a little apprehensive, but when she stood in front of Gu Lian's private room and opened the door, Jiang Shuyao had an inexplicable feeling that Gu Lian was here.

The moment he entered the private room, Gu Lian was sitting at his favorite seat by the window as always. When he heard the movement, he raised his head and said to her, "Miss Jiang Si, are you done?"

For a moment, Jiang Shuyao felt an inexplicable sense of security.

"Gu Shizi," Jiang Shuyao calmed down and sat in her seat, "I didn't expect that I guessed it right."

Gu Lian was keenly aware of the complex emotions flashing across Jiang Shuyao's face when she just opened the door.It seemed to be relieved, and it seemed to relax suddenly.Gu Lian didn't ask any further questions, but just poured a cup of tea for Jiang Shuyao silently: "Miss Jiang looks a little in a hurry, why don't you drink a cup of tea to warm up your body first."

Gu Lian's posture when pouring tea was very elegant.He calmly poured an empty teacup with tea first, and then slowly filled the teacup with tea. During this time, his fingers were attached to the azure cup wall, making him appear whiter and slender.Amidst the hot air, Gu Lian's handsome face was faintly visible, like a banished immortal.

Jiang Shuyao's heart involuntarily calmed down.Watching a beautiful woman pour tea is really an enjoyable thing.

Jiang Shuyao took a sip from the teacup, and the warm current flowed through her body, as if all the pores of her body were ironed.Jiang Shuyao couldn't help sighing.

"Ms. Jiang Si is interested in what Gu said earlier?" Gu Lian asked after Jiang Shuyao finished his cup of tea.

Jiang Shuyao nodded without hesitation.The previous fear was completely over, and Jiang Shuyao was once again scratched by the information revealed by Gu Lian: "Gu Shizi, don't be a fool, tell me quickly."

Since ancient times, the essence of human beings has been gossip.Gu Lian's behavior is equivalent to sending someone "Tell you something, you must be very interested" on WeChat, and then disappear!

Fortunately, Gu Lian did not disappear, and was caught by her.Jiang Shuyao was full of anticipation, and even folded her hands on the table in front of her, staring at Gu Lian with her big eyes intently, as if she was listening carefully.

Gu Lian was amused by her appearance, curled the corners of his lips calmly, and then said seriously: "Speaking of which, Fourth Miss Jiang, do you still remember the Sun Zhi mentioned earlier?"

Jiang Shuyao was a little surprised.Of course Sun Zhi remembered, she had asked Gu Lian about it.It's just that Sun Zhi hasn't come out for a long time, and she almost forgot about this person.

But - I don't know what's going on with Sun Zhi and the second princess Xue Xuan.

"What did he do again?" Could it be that Sun Zhi was found cheating on the second princess behind his back?Or did the second princess finally dump him?

Jiang Shuyao shook her head silently, remembering how she overheard the second princess's almost obedient attitude when facing Sun Zhi.It always feels impossible.

Gu Lian stretched out his hand slowly, and when Jiang Shuyao looked puzzled, he gestured to Jiang Shuyao to get her closer.

Oh hoo?Also strangely mysterious.Jiang Shuyao obediently moved to a position close to Gu Lian: "'Tell me quickly, I really want to know."

"According to the Holy Majesty, if there are no accidents, the marriage will be granted to the two before October."

Jiang Shuyao:? !
The emperor knew about this matter, so the eldest prince must have agreed.If she remembered correctly, Sun Zhi himself did not have any talents worthy of the First Prince's appreciation. Moreover, he failed the imperial examinations repeatedly. For the First Prince, he should be a worthless useless talent.

So, why is it that the eldest prince can't think about it and is willing to marry his sister to him?

When Sun Zhi was mentioned, Jiang Shuyao thought of the number one scholar Lang Zhongqin who was used as a springboard by Sun Zhi before.

This thing is actually quite ridiculous.At that time, scholars in the capital were saying that Zhong Qin was arrogant and conceited, saying that Sun Zhi was as talented as he was and that he was modest and hardworking. Only a few people supported Zhong Qin.It's just that most people are just sloppy.Not long after that, Zhong Qin was highly praised by the emperor for proposing a good strategy, and as Zhong Qin's status gradually rose, the emperor's favor for him was clearly revealed, and people in the capital gradually listened to him. There was no voice belittling Zhong Qin anymore.

It's just a pity that although the incident of being trampled by Sun Zhi did not cause substantial damage to Zhong Qin in the end, it finally made Sun Zhi famous.Even if it was later confirmed that Zhong Qin was far from being comparable to others, there were some who slandered Sun Zhi in turn. For Sun Zhi, this wave of operations was sure to make money.

Seeing Jiang Shuyao's doubts and puzzlement, Gu Lian explained: "I heard that many people went to Sun Zhi's house to propose marriage for him before, and he firmly stated that he already had a sweetheart, and he would definitely not let her down. Turned down several."

When speaking the last half of the sentence, Gu Lian even deliberately emphasized his tone.

Jiang Shuyao: ...Obviously, this trick is for the second princess to see.

The news in the matchmaker circle is very well-informed. It stands to reason that after he rejected the first one with such a reason, no matchmaker would come to propose marriage again.After all, isn't that asking for trouble?What's more, as for the matter of the second princess and Sun Zhi, anyone who is interested will be able to hear some rumors after a little inquiring.How could a matchmaker dare to come?So, how did Sun Zhi manage to "reject several companies one after another"?

Such a thing, I am afraid that only people who are blinded by love will believe it.However, this kind of person is generally called a love brain.

"What else?" Jiang Shuyao knew that this trick could only be said to be useful, for example, it could make the second princess more firmly express that he was the one to do, but I'm afraid it was nothing more than that.Such tricks will not please the First Prince.

Gu Lian raised his eyebrows and gave Jiang Shuyao an appreciative look.However, he was not in a hurry to continue, but called the shop waiter in: "It's been an hour since breakfast, Miss Jiang Si must be hungry too, why don't you order some snacks to fill your stomach first."

Jiang Shuyao quietly touched her belly.Well, she is indeed a little hungry.Therefore, Jiang Shuyao did not stop Gu Lian, but silently added another dessert she liked.

People are like iron, and food is like steel. Only when you are full can you gossip.

When the snacks came, Jiang Shuyao ate without hesitation.Thanks to Gu Lian, she realized that she was starving.It may be that today's scene is too exciting and consumes too much energy.

The two stopped communicating, and the private room was silent for a while.However, Jiang Shuyao didn't notice that Gu Lian only took a symbolic taste at first, and then stopped eating. Instead, he wiped his mouth and watched Jiang Shuyao eat.

In fact, Jiang Shuyao's stomach just growled.It's just that she was so focused in her thinking that she didn't notice it. Instead, Gu Lian, who had been paying attention to her movement, heard it.He just ordered tea.

"Go on, does Gu Shizi know how Sun Zhi persuaded the eldest prince?"
