famous eldest daughter

Chapter 5 Silkworm Brocade

Ji Xiang Ruyi looked at each other and said in unison: "No."

Without Gu Yuqing's instructions, they would never make their own decisions.

I just received a post from the Queen this morning. Ji Xiang Ruyi has always been tight-lipped and cautious, and will never spread this matter without her permission.

There won't even be any private discussions in Tongyuan.

How did Gu Yuhe, who lived far away in the east courtyard, know...

Gu Yuqing remembered that in her previous life, when she was 13 years old, she once went to the palace to attend a banquet hosted by the Queen. During the banquet, Concubine Hui suddenly had a recurrence of her old illness and died suddenly.

After something like this happened, the banquet could not go on naturally, and the palace people were in chaos. Gu Yuqing was led to a side palace by a little palace maid, and by chance, she bumped into the drunken Yongning Hou Crown Prince Dong Ce.

Dong Ce is Concubine Hui's maternal nephew. He has always been respectful and modest, but after being drunk, he pounced on her like crazy. If Xiao Duo hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Afterwards, Gu Yuqing suspected that Xiao Duo showed up too soon. It was only after Dong Ce sobered up that he came to apologize in person, saying that he mistakenly thought she was his favorite cousin, so he was so abrupt and sincere, which made Gu Yuqing feel guilty Confuse.

It was also from then on that Gu Yuqing looked at Xiao Duo in a different light.

Gu Yuqing remembered that it seemed to be a bright spring day. There had just been a heavy rain overnight. The sky was as green as spring and the flowers in the imperial garden were blooming.

Is that day today?
Arriving at the second gate, Gu Yuqing ordered his servants to prepare another carriage for Gu Yuhe.

She was not mentally strong enough to be able to ride with Gu Yuhe calmly and chat about family ties after experiencing life and death. Gu Yuqing strangled Gu Yuhe to death for fear that she could not help it.

It doesn't matter if he strangles her to death, but he can't ruin his wonderful life because of her.

After getting on the carriage and hugging her red cloak, Gu Yuqing leaned on a gold pillow, closed her eyes and thought about her past and present lives.

Jixiang Ruyi was sitting next to Gu Yuqing, face to face, and there was a peaceful silence in the car.

I could hear footsteps approaching outside, and the velvet car curtain was opened with a bang. Gu Yuhe poked his head and said, "Sister, I want to sit with you."

Gu Yuqing opened her eyes slightly and looked at Gu Yuhe. She saw that Gu Yuhe was dressed in pearls and emeralds at a young age. She wore an orange-pink dress made of rare silkworm brocade. Looking at Gu Yuhe's innocent face, Gu Yuqing only felt that her eyes were like A sudden pain like being pricked by a needle.

"How old are you to act coquettishly? It's time to learn to be independent. From now on, you will ride in a carriage by yourself." The joints of the hands holding the handkerchief in the sleeves were clear. Gu Yuqing suppressed the huge grief in her heart and said expressionlessly. .

"Sister!" Gu Yuhe immediately acted coquettishly.

"Okay, don't make a fuss. How can you miss the time by attending the palace banquet." Gu Yuqing said without leaving any room, "If you are making a fuss, it is better not to go."

Gu Yuhe was stunned for a moment, a look of surprise flashed across his face, he curled his lips and said pitifully, "I listen to my sister."

The body that had climbed halfway retreated again.

As the carriage pulled away, Gu Yuqing closed her eyes again and thought about something.

In the last life, how blind was my heart? In the whole country, only Xiao Duo's biological mother, Concubine Shu, had such a thing as Tiancan Brocade.

Where did Gu Yuhe come from!
Concubine Shu was willing to give such a valuable thing to Gu Yuhe, which showed that their relationship had been going on for more than a day or two. Fortunately, she boasted of her superior intelligence, but Gu Yuhe was acting like this under her nose, and she was able to hide it from her.

Her mother died early. In her last life, her love for Gu Yuhe's sister and mother had blinded her eyes and mind, preventing her from seeing anything wrong with Gu Yuhe. She always felt that she was childish and innocent.

In fact, as long as you pay attention, it might not end like that. After all, Gu Yuhe is her biological sister from the same mother.

Maybe Gu Yuhe was just bewitched by Concubine Shu and Xiao Duo?
In this life, if I had stopped Gu Yuhe in time, would the sisters not have become enemies?
The carriage moved steadily through the busy bustling city, and arrived in front of the palace gate in just a moment.

After helping Jixiang get out of the carriage, Gu Yuqing looked up at the majestic palace, her heart was racing, and her deep eyes were filled with mist.

He turned around and whispered a few words to Ruyi. As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yuhe came over with a happy face, "Ah He is so happy to be able to enter the palace with my sister."

Gu Yuhe reached out to hold Gu Yuqing's arm, his face full of intimacy.

Gu Yuqing pushed her without leaving a trace, "How can you be allowed to act so recklessly in the palace city?"

Gu Yuhe immediately curled his lips and looked like he was about to cry, and said pitifully: "Sister is so cruel today. Did Ah He do something wrong? Is this why sister treated Ah He like this?"

A pair of peach blossom eyes were slightly red, and her thin eyebrows were slightly frowned as she looked at Gu Yuqing, twisting a handkerchief back and forth in her hand, biting her lower lip tightly with her tiny silver teeth.

Gu Yuqing looked at Gu Yuhe in front of her. She didn't think it before, but today she suddenly realized that it seemed a bit too... artificial for the ten-year-old her to make such a gesture.

While they were talking, a carriage came to a stop behind them, and a jade-like young man jumped out of the carriage.

He is the emperor's favorite prince, Xiao Yu, and his biological mother, Concubine Hui.

He was only sixteen years old. He was handsome and tall, but he liked to party and have fun. He was notoriously uneducated.

The emperor repeatedly scolded him, but he just turned a deaf ear and went out of the imperial study room, where he continued to misbehave as he pleased, letting the emperor blow his beard and glare.

Xiao Yu likes all kinds of fun, except that he is not lewd.

In his previous life, he was found dead in Luomeipo shortly after Concubine Hui died suddenly.

When they found him, his body was already mutilated and his clothes were in rags. He must have encountered a wild beast that haunted this place.

Although Xiao Yu was a dandy, he was not a bad person. In addition, he died miserably in his previous life. Compared with talking to Gu Yuhe, Gu Yuqing was more willing to accept the words Xiao Yu handed over.

"Hey, isn't this Miss Gu from the Marquis of Chinan's Mansion? Why, are you here to attend the queen's palace banquet today?" Approaching Gu Yuqing, Xiao Yu said with a smile on his face.

His eyes passed over Gu Yuqing's delicate face, and paused briefly on Gu Yuhe. When he saw Gu Yuhe's attire, Xiao Yu couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.

Although there was a flash of lightning, Gu Yuqing still saw it exactly in his eyes, with a calm and faint smile on his face.

Under the warm sunshine of spring, Xiao Yu's eyes were spotless and very clear, like a clear spring water. There was no trace of the absurdity of its owner.

Gu Yuqing slightly bent her knees and gave Xiao Yu a blessing ceremony, and they entered the palace side by side.

"I originally thought that Miss Gu was invited to the palace by the Empress, but now it seems that I was wrong. Miss Gu and Empress Shu are on good terms!" Xiao Yu said with a playful smile and a hint of sarcasm.

The spring breeze moved slightly, causing his azure cloud brocade to turn slightly, and his slightly raised chin flaunted his restrained edge.

Xiao Yu died early in his previous life. When he died, Gu Yuqing had not yet begun to care about the court affairs, so he had almost never interacted with Xiao Yu. Unexpectedly, he did not know that he, who always loved eating, drinking and having fun, still cared about the court affairs.

The silkworm brocade on Gu Yuhe's body alone can tell Concubine Shu's name. In his previous life, was he really just a prince who didn't seek to make progress but was loved by the emperor as rumored?
Gu Yuqing smiled and had no explanation for Xiao Yu's ridicule.

Everyone knows that the real housekeeper of the Yipin Hou Mansion is Gu Yuqing, who is only 13 years old. Gu Yuhe can wear such top-notch products, so people naturally do it for Gu Yuqing's sake. Even if she explains that she has no idea, Xiao Yu I may not believe it.

"The Fourth Highness never likes to attend such banquets. Why did he come early today?" Gu Yuqing said slowly with a slight smile on his lips.

The spring sunshine shines on her face through the speckled branches, and the shadows of the branches are intertwined diagonally. The spring light suddenly shines brightly on her creamy face.

Looking at each other sideways, Xiao Yu couldn't help but feel slightly absent-minded for a moment.
