famous eldest daughter

Chapter 97 Returning to the Table
In this room, there was the sound of silk and bamboo, and the dancing was long, and Princess Duan's summer solstice banquet was in full swing.In the bamboo forest, Xiao Yu almost fled away from Gu Yuqing, but he didn't really leave the bamboo forest directly.

He just made a few turns secretly, blushing and taking a few breaths with his heart beating out of reach of Gu Yuqing's sight. He looked over and watched Gu Yuqing leave the bamboo forest safely, with a happy smile on his lips.

The summer breeze blew his pine green brocade cloak, and the corners of his clothes flew.Her face was as warm as jade, and her eyes were full of tenderness and tiredness as she stared at the girl she loved.

It wasn't until Gu Yuqing's back disappeared that Xiao Yu cut down two bamboos casually, and walked out swaggeringly with his shoulders on his shoulders.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of Prince Duan's Mansion, Ming Lu hurriedly came up to him. When he saw the bamboo carried on Xiao Yu's shoulders, Ming Lu suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Your Highness, why are you carrying two bamboos?"

Xiao Yu threw the bamboo to Ming Lu, took a selfie and clapped his hands, and said loudly: "Of course I'm making cages to raise crickets!" After saying that, he glanced at the golden plaque on the lintel of Prince Duan's Mansion, and got into the carriage.

After Ming Lu placed the bamboos and the carriage slowly drove off, Xiao Yu squinted his eyes and leaned casually on an azure pillow behind him, with a smile on his lips.

He came to Prince Duan's Mansion today for a few letters.

There have long been secret reports that Prince Duan has secretly colluded with the enemy country Nanyue, but because there is no evidence, he cannot be reported in front of his father, this seemingly loyal but treacherous uncle. According to the news, it has been verified that the letters concerning Prince Duan's collusion with South Vietnam over the years have been hidden by Prince Duan in a secret compartment of a certain agency in the study.

According to the clues provided by the insider, Xiao Yu easily avoided the dead men guarding the dark place outside the study and successfully obtained the letters.

When he came out of the study and was about to leave the house, he caught a glimpse of Gu Yuqing in the bamboo forest.

The bamboo forest is deep and dense, with several small paths crisscrossing it. If you don't pay attention, you will lose your way.

The girl he loves appeared in front of him unexpectedly, the bright sunshine of early summer was cut into pieces by dense bamboo leaves, and a thin layer was sprinkled on Gu Yuqing's body. The fairy opened his heart in a daze.

Knowing that he was carrying the evidence of the prince's collaboration with the enemy, it would be more dangerous to stay for a moment longer, but Xiao Yu still walked in the direction of Gu Yuqing without obeying his orders.

Thinking of what he had just experienced in the bamboo forest, Xiao Yu's half-closed eyes moved slightly, and he broke into a cold sweat out of fear.

If he hesitated for a moment or left the house directly, I am afraid that his girl would fall into the hands of Prince Duan and die. Thinking of this possible outcome, Xiao Yu's heart ached.

Fortunately, fortunately, he passed, and passed in time without hesitation.

Taking a long breath, Xiao Yu opened his eyes and looked at the brocade cloak on his body. The smile on his lips became thicker, and his deep eyes glowed with warmth due to the ripples in his heart.

Why are we so destined!

He and his girl actually wore clothes of the same color and texture. If not, he couldn't be absolutely sure that his cloak would be able to cover her completely.

With his mind racing, Xiao Yu's heart was beating loudly as his palm inadvertently brushed against the chest that Gu Yuqing had touched.

There was a smile on his face, but he was muttering: Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu, you are such a coward, when will you be able to calm down in front of others? You can't even say a normal word, you are really capable!

Just at this moment, a gust of wind blew, and the curtains of the carriage were blown up. Ming Lu moved his eyes casually, and saw Xiao Yu muttering to himself with his hands on his chest, his cheeks were as red as if he had been scalded by boiling water, and the corners of his mouth And with a weird smile.

Seeing Xiao Yu like this, Ming Lu was so frightened that he almost rolled off his horse. He immediately stopped the carriage, jumped off the horse, rushed to the front of the carriage, and raised the curtain, "Your Highness, are you sick? What's wrong? Your face is so red? Does your chest hurt? Is it injured? Is the injury on your chest?"

what?
Ming Lu's series of questions immediately stunned Xiao Yu. He was still holding his chest with his hands. He and Ming Lu stared at each other for a moment. Xiao Yu suddenly realized what Ming Lu meant. His face suddenly darkened and he stretched out his hand towards Ming Lu's forehead and "pop" It was just a slap, "You are the one who is sick!"

Being patted by Xiao Yu, a light seemed to flash in Ming Lu's mind. He covered his head and said, "Have you seen Miss Gu?" Although it was a question, it was in a very affirmative tone.

After saying that, he received another slap on the head. Ming Lu immediately held his head and wailed, "I'm not wrong!"

Xiao Yu glanced at him with a dark face, "Let's go back home!"

……

Adding wine to the cup, the song and dance changed to two performances, and the maid sent out by Princess Duan finally returned. Gu Yuqing calmly raised the wine glass to her mouth and looked at Princess Duan out of the corner of her eye.

She still had a bright smile on her face, but as the maid whispered in her ear, Gu Yuqing saw a stern look in Princess Duan's soft eyes from the corner of her eye, and her stern gaze shot straight at her, as if It's like shooting her through.

With the corner of her mouth slightly raised, Gu Yuqing looked away, An Ran tilted the glass, and drank the sweet and sour plum wine in one gulp.

She held the carved silver wine glass in her slender hands and had just placed it firmly on the table when Princess Duan's voice rang out, "Your sister has sprained her foot. Come with me and have a look."

When speaking, the coldness in Princess Duan's eyes had been well concealed.

Gu Yuqing looked at Princess Duan after hearing this. Of course she knew that Gu Yuhe did not have a sprained foot. Princess Duan said this just to avoid the eyes and ears of everyone and lure her out smoothly.

Without any hesitation, Gu Yuqing immediately stood up.

Princess Duan personally took Gu Yuqing's hand and they both left.

After turning a few small doors with hanging flowers and leaving the banquet hall, Princess Duan suddenly stopped. The emotion she had just faked on her face was no longer there, replaced by a cold air, "I don't think so." Do you know when the relationship between the Marquis of Chinan and my concubine Cheng became so good?" His tone was aggressive.

Gu Yuqing's heart flashed, and she couldn't help but be slightly surprised, becoming a concubine?

Gu Yuqing knew that Princess Duan brought her out because of the matter between Gu Yuhe and the woman, but she did not expect that Princess Duan would mention becoming a concubine.

There have been rumors outside that although the concubine Cheng of Duan Wang's mansion is favored by Duan Wang, she is weak and weak, and has been lingering in the sick bed for several years.

She had a quick glance today, but she felt that the woman's pink face was very beautiful, and there was no trace of illness at all.

Princess Duan mentioned Cheng Concubine with gritted teeth at this moment, which shows that the person meeting Gu Yuhe must be Cheng Concubine.

But why are there such rumors outside?
Suspicions arose in his heart, Gu Yuqing looked directly at Princess Duan, and said: "The Marquis of Chinan has no concubines and no concubines, so naturally he won't have anything to do with concubines in other people's houses, so I don't have to humiliate my identity." proudly.
