The scumbag ex-husband knelt down to salute, and gritted his teeth to meet the emperor's aunt

"What did you just say?" Gu Jinzhou frowned, "How good is Long Yang?"

"Who told you that this king is as good as Longyang?" Gu Jinzhou subconsciously increased the strength in his hands.

Jiang Xi tilted her head and looked at Gu Jinzhou, her eyebrows frowned.

Is not it?
Is Gu Jinzhou not as good as Long Yang?
What if he is not as good as Long Yang?
Then why didn't he marry a wife and have children after he became the regent queen in his previous life?

Not only did he fail to marry a wife and have children, but he even dismissed those concubines and beauties from back then. The reason for this is unknown.

"It was Gu Zhanheng who told me." Without even thinking about it, Jiang Xi blamed Gu Zhanheng.

Since Gu Zhanheng has no enemies, it would be good to have one or two enemies for him.

"The third highness told me before that you are as good as Longyang, and those concubines and beauties in your mansion are just a cover." Jiang Xi met Gu Jinzhou's gaze as a matter of course.

Those concubines and beauties in his mansion are indeed a cover...

But it's not like that...

"This king is not as good as Longyang!" Gu Jinzhou gritted his teeth and said, "Don't listen to Gu Zhanheng's nonsense!"

"Then the prince withdrew my arrangement because he liked Jiang Yin?" Jiang Xi still looked serious, and there was no disturbance at all in those calm eyes.

"This king doesn't like Jiang Yin! What kind of a woman is he who hangs out with the third child!" Gu Jinzhou was faintly angry.

Jiang Xi accepted it when she saw it was good, and did not continue to ask, but said with a smile, "Since the prince likes to withdraw, he can withdraw, it doesn't matter." She waved her hand at Gu Jinzhou.

Seeing this, Gu Jinzhou knew that Jiang Xi didn't know his intentions at all.

He didn't even know that he would help her out of liking her.

Forget it, now that I tell you, she probably won't believe it either.

"Don't worry, you won't achieve your goal tonight." Gu Jinzhou said unwillingly.

Didn't you ever think that this king is just here to help you?

"Let it be." Jiang Xi smiled at Gu Jinzhou.

"If you help me, I will be happy; if you don't help me, I won't hate you, after all, you have no reason to do so, right?"

"Now." Gu Jinzhou snorted coldly, with a gloomy look on his brows.

Jiang Xi lowered her head and suppressed the smile on her lips, and smiled as a response.

The two walked side by side in the imperial garden for a while.

Jiang Xi's eyes occasionally linger on the flowers in the imperial garden.

"Thank you for Miss Tang's matter. Ah Heng has been trying to get Miss Tang to leave the clothes bureau before, but he has been suffering from no other way, and this king can't directly help."

Jiang Xi's lips curled up at Gu Jinzhou's words, "I like Ah Xun very much, she is a very good girl."

After thinking for a while, Jiang Xi continued, "I want to let Ah Xun leave the palace after this birthday banquet. She shouldn't be confined to the harem."

"She is a proton, and it is impossible for her to leave the palace unless she has special rights." Gu Jinzhou looked into the distance.

"So for so long, this king has been unable to take Ah Heng out of the palace."

"I know." Jiang Xi turned her head to Gu Jinzhou and curled her lips.

"So something has to happen, doesn't it?" She winked at Gu Jinzhou as she spoke.

"When Ah Xun is out of the palace, I will bring her to meet Xiaoxiao and Zisong, and we will be best friends from now on." Jiang Xi glanced at the scenery in front of her.

"Ziyu confessed to me earlier, and I clearly rejected him." Jiang Xi lowered the stone under his feet.

"Ziyu has a good personality, and he can be regarded as a good man." Gu Jinzhou's voice was low, as if he had a high opinion of Gu Zhanyue.

"He is a beloved, but not mine." Jiang Xi's tone was firmer than ever when he said these words, which meant that he didn't even give up on Shen Yanzhi.

If Jiang Xi's treatment of Shen Yanzhi was ambiguous, then she was decisive towards Gu Zhanyue.

It's a determination, the kind of determination that doesn't even want to have anything to do with him.

But why?
Thinking of this, Gu Jinzhou turned his attention to Jiang Xi.

What happened to Jiang Xi to make her say these words?

"You don't like Ziyu?" Gu Jinzhou pretended to be puzzled and asked back, "Ziyu is the current prince and the future emperor. If you marry him, won't you be able to be in the middle palace and be an example for the world?"

Jiang Xi looked at Gu Jinzhou and shook his head, "Gu Jinzhou, have you heard the story of "Song of Everlasting Sorrow"?"

Seeing Gu Jinzhou shaking his head, Jiang Xi simply told the story of "Song of Everlasting Sorrow".

In the end, no one was wrong, but the person who died was Concubine Yang Gui, whom everyone thought was a disaster.

"The imperial concubine is not wrong, what is wrong is the emperor who fell in love with her, and she is not a disaster, but a victim." Gu Jinzhou replied to Jiang Xi following the answer given by the master.

"But why is it her? Not someone else?" Jiang Xi tilted his head and looked at him.

"Because she is favored by the emperor? Or is it because she wants that kind of favor?"

Jiang Xi couldn't help lowering her voice when she said this, "Your majesty and the queen are young couples, and they love each other deeply, but she can't be the only one."

"This is impossible. Brother Huang is the Ninth Five-Year Supreme. There is no way to balance the court situation."

"That's right." Jiang Xi nodded in agreement.

"Love is a very selfish thing, no one is willing to share it with others;
The person I like can only have me in my heart, and can only be with me as a "one generation, one pair for a lifetime";
If not, I would rather not marry for the rest of my life! "

When Jiang Xi said this, she met Gu Jinzhou's gaze, and those firm eyes were full of solemnity.

It was as if every word she uttered was filtered and thought by her thousands of times.

Gu Jinzhou slightly clenched the hand hanging by his side, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, not looking at Jiang Xi's eyes.

He didn't seem to like her enough to give up a forest for her.

Jiang Xi picked a few flowers of different colors in the imperial garden, and prepared to take them back to the queen, trim them and put them in the vase of Yukun Palace.

"What are you doing?"

Hearing this voice, Jiang Xi looked up and saw a woman in a fine attire standing not far away, with two maidservants standing beside her.

She is the soft concubine of Emperor Ninghe, and the only concubine without an heir among the concubines in the harem.

Jiang Xi plucked the last flower in front of her and put it in her hand.

Bowed to concubine Rou, "I've seen your mother."

"As the empress saw, the courtier is picking flowers and preparing to give them to the empress." Jiang Xi's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, and she didn't even mean to be jealous of Concubine Rou.

"Do you know that the flowers in the imperial garden are not allowed to be picked without permission." Concubine Rou looked at her with a trace of displeasure in her eyes.

"So this is the rule?" Jiang Xi suddenly realized, "The prince didn't tell the courtiers, and the courtiers don't know."

She turned her head and glanced at Gu Jinzhou who was slowly following up, "When I picked the flowers before, why didn't you tell my servant that the flowers in the imperial garden are not allowed to be picked without permission."

"Since the king didn't speak, why should you take what other people said to heart?"

Gu Jinzhou glanced at Concubine Rou, her brows and eyes were tainted with unrestraint, as if she had become that dandy prince again.

"Why doesn't this king know when the emperor made such a rule?"

"I have seen the prince." The two servant girls beside Concubine Rou hurriedly saluted.

"The thirteenth brother is also there!" Concubine Rou showed a sneer.

"I didn't expect that this is the girl Thirteenth Brother knew. Why did Thirteenth Brother change his temper and want to marry a wife and have children?"

"What does it have to do with you?" Gu Jinzhou didn't even look at Concubine Rou.

In the previous life, Jiang Xi had heard that Gu Jinzhou didn't take any concubine seriously except for the queen.

Now it seems that it is true.

Concubine Rou's face darkened with anger, she turned around and left with the two maids, and she still didn't forget to give Jiang Xi a glare when she left.

"It's not easy now." Jiang Xi looked at Gu Jinzhou with a face of reproach, "It's all your fault that I will be hated by Concubine Rou."

"Why take it to heart?" Gu Jinzhou sneered, "Even if there is no king, the queen's sister-in-law will not allow concubine Rou to bully you."

Listening to Gu Jinzhou's words, Jiang Xi shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, the soldiers are here to cover up the water and the soil."

After all, truly powerful people are never afraid of these methods.
