late night song

Chapter 34 An unexpected blessing
After dinner, Gu Yuxin went to Linyue Pavilion with her sister.

Regarding King Qin's attitude toward Gun Nanxi tonight, Gu Yuchu's jealousy overflowed uncontrollably.

Say what you don't like, but since you are married, you will gradually develop some feelings.

She muttered in her heart and glanced at Gu Yuxin again, thinking that she was okay, after all, she was not an important person to him, but her sister was in love with him. She was about to say a few heartwarming words, but Gu Yuxin unexpectedly Yu Xin spoke first.

"It's okay, sister." She took Gu Yuchu's hand and comforted him.

"Huh?" Gu Yuchu was a little confused, thinking about why she became the one who needed comfort.

"The days ahead are still long, so don't waste this day and night. She is a princess, and she has the support of the Nanchang Prince's Palace. The Prince should pay more attention to her."

"Oh."

Gu Yuchu didn't realize that Gu Yuxin would cry and complain, but she didn't expect that her sister would deal with it so calmly.

"On the wedding night, brother Zhen didn't go anywhere. I think he did the right thing."

"Huh? Aren't you sad?" Gu Yuchu became increasingly confused.

"Of course I don't. Didn't brother frame go to her place? I don't think it's appropriate for brother frame to go to anyone's house that night." Gu Yuxin dragged her chin and continued.

"How do you say it?" Gu Yuchu raised his eyes slightly and began to be taught patiently.

"Sister, you are stupid. If you go to her place, won't you tell others clearly that you have fallen out of favor? Then Gun Nanxi must not be arrogant in the future and use the power of his mother's family to bully both of us." Gu Yuxin rolled her eyes. The confused sister patiently explained.

"Yes, yes. What if I go to your place?"

"Then today, everyone in Qidu City will probably lament that sister, you are so scheming and doting on your sister!" Gu Yuxin raised her eyebrows and said matter-of-factly. She didn't seem to have gone to Gunan because of Qiji at all. There was dissatisfaction in Xi's room.

Hearing what she said, Gu Yuchu almost spat out his tea and wondered what was going on? !

"Hahaha..." Gu Yuxin smiled happily when she saw her sister losing her composure, "To get to the point, if Brother Zhen went to Gunanxi's pavilion on his wedding night, it would make outsiders think that he was deliberately trying to win over the King of Nanchang. It will arouse Emperor Ming's suspicion. If he goes to my pavilion and refutes Princess Chaoyang and Emperor Ming's face too much, it will make the world think that he is self-absorbed and has no regard for the overall situation. Therefore, it is wise not to go to either side."

"Okay, that makes sense." Gu Yuchu was very pleased that his sister could think like this.

"Of course." Gu Yuxin waved her hand proudly, picked up a piece of peach cake and took a bite.

"Tell me again, why did Qi frame go to Gunanxi courtyard again today?" Gu Yuchu continued to ask on a whim.

"Sister, are you jealous?" Gu Yuxin blinked and smiled meaningfully.

"Hehe, how is that possible."

The woman smiled awkwardly and immediately denied it, but it did not change Gu Yuxin's view. She immediately changed to a preaching look and said to her sister seriously:

"I think you are blinded by emotion. My brother went to her today just to appease the King of Nanchang's love for his daughter. The King of Nanchang is not happy with his daughter being named a concubine. If he doesn't show it the next day, I am afraid that the King of Nanchang will not be able to sit still even if he has a little sympathy for Yu, so how will Nanchang's 15 troops be used for his own use in the future?"

"Convince!"

Gu Yuchu hurriedly clasped his fists and praised her. Whether it was verbally or in her heart, she really admired her sister for being able to escape love freely, endure all kinds of grievances, and everything was based on the great plan of the frame.

At this moment, she really felt that her sister was a perfect match for Qi Jian. In addition to her impeccable beauty, wasn't this kind of calmness and calmness what Qi Jian needed and expected?

They were so devoted to each other that it seemed that her unspoken selfishness was superfluous and ridiculous, and she was really ashamed.

Gu Yuxin smiled even happier, and Gu Yuchu looked at her quietly. This was the first time the two of them talked and laughed so happily after she returned home.

In an instant, she suddenly realized that since their wedding, the resentment and awkwardness between the two sisters seemed to have disappeared. The appearance of Gun Nanxi made them cherish each other even more.

This feeling is so good. How can the troubles of love entanglement be worth the warmth and comfort of family affection.

"But are you really not sad at all?" Gu Yuchu was immersed in this soothing joy, but he still felt sorry for his sister's restraint, so he hesitated for a while and finally spoke.

"a little bit."

Gu Yuxin restrained her complacency and showed a little bit of disappointment.

"If you marry a country man, you can still hope that one person will be devoted to you, but if you choose such an extraordinary person, there must be gains and losses. Fortunately, since you really like her, you don't feel hard."

After saying that, the bride, who had been contented just now, smiled and shook her head and became silent. She didn't know how many times she had told herself such relief, but she still expected to give up, but unexpectedly got it.

Gu Yuchu brushed his sister's hair. Forced by the helpless growth and calmness, she felt sorry for and understood.

…………

On the other side of the palace, Qi Zhan was sipping tea seriously at the Xuexue Terrace in Gun Nanxi. The Princess Nanxi on the side had a much more relaxed temperament, lowering her head and carefully cooking fine tea.

Qi Jie didn't speak, and she wasn't in a hurry to speak.

Before entering the palace, Princess Chaoyang talked with her all night, and she realized how much danger her willfulness and recklessness had almost put the Nanchang Palace in. She was afraid, and she also blamed herself endlessly.

At the moment when her mother cried, she realized how luxurious it was to be sincere and get what you wanted in the royal family.

In this golden prison driven by profit, she has a unique advantage. The initial stumble cannot be called a twists and turns.

Therefore, the status of this concubine is a warning and an opportunity for her. She must put away all her complaints and get ready to go.

Gun Nanxi gathered her thoughts and raised her head to look at the man in front of her. As long as he was by her side, she would be fine. Even though she didn't disdain and was not good at those twists and turns in the past, she could still figure it out easily after seeing her more. She always wanted to Let him understand that he is the most qualified to help him get what he wants.

"Husband." She spoke slowly and whispered the title she had practiced countless times.

Dao Qijian did not agree, and there was not even a trace of emotion in his cold eyes.

"Husband, it's late at night, and the princess may be impatient."

Gun Nanxi endured the grievance in her heart and called out again stubbornly. She had imagined countless possible reactions to the opening of the frame, including the current one. Although she had been prepared in her heart, she still couldn't help it. Lost and sad.

"I have become more obedient and sensible, but..." Qi Jian took a sip of tea and emphasized in a cold tone, "Don't be smart." "I'm not! I just..." The woman was a little angry, but she quickly suppressed herself. Go on, no explanation.

"What are you just doing? Want to show how generous you are? Or are you eager to verify the benefits of refusing to welcome?"

Qi Jian really showed no mercy at all. When he thought about the fact that Gu Yuchu had never called her husband so affectionately before, and when he thought about being pushed around by these three seemingly generous and self-righteous women, he felt very sad in his heart. All the anger came out at once.

"You!" Even though he had persuaded himself a hundred times, Gun Nanxi was still so angry that he could not speak.

"I will stay here tonight. If you don't want to, there are plenty of empty courtyards in the palace. You can go wherever you like." The man's tone was light, but the thorn in his words was indeed old.

"Your Majesty, this servant is going to prepare for bathing in the hot spring." Gunanxi's dowry aunt is very clever. She knows the princess's temper very well. If this stalemate continues, the gains will outweigh the losses. What's more, such a good opportunity should be taken advantage of.

Gun Nanxi received her aunt's look and thought of her mother's repeated warnings, so she had no choice but to hold back and stop being impulsive.

However, she didn't expect that Qi Jian would actually stay here. She originally wanted to offer Gu Yuchu a favor and gain a good impression of Qi Jian as a virtuous person, but she didn't expect that she would actually leave him here!

She was in trouble, thinking about what to do. She had forgotten the boudoir thing that her sister-in-law had taught her, but how could she put it to use in this situation?

After the bathing soup was prepared, Qi Zhen didn't let anyone wait on him. Firstly, he didn't have that habit, and secondly, he really wanted to be alone.

It has been more than a month since Anuda returned to Xirong. The war between the two countries is probably approaching. With the turmoil in the northwest, Emperor Ming will definitely send him to lead the army. At that time, the Queen's party will definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble again. Then Qidu will be somewhat calm. The situation may become difficult to control again.

The dilemma of Gu Yuchu's identity has been solved, but it will inevitably lead to malicious speculation by others. The Prince of Qin's palace is too popular, and the enemies may have already been living together in the dark. By then, all the secret arrows will be fired. If he is not around, will she be able to escape on her own?

Then again, he's worried about her here, and what the hell is that damn woman doing now!She said she wanted to come to Gunanxi just now, but she didn't feel jealous at all. She really gained a lot of skills!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. At this time, Gun Nanxi was forced to put on a pink sheer gauze skirt. The skirt, collar, and cuffs were embroidered with grape vines. Under the candlelight, her skin was made even whiter. The figure is exquisite and graceful.

Gu Nanxi looked at himself in the mirror and became shy.

After taking a bath, Qi Jian put on a simple and comfortable robe, with his hair disheveled. He was a little embarrassed when he saw the woman sitting awkwardly in front of the bed, but he couldn't show that he had never been close to women, so he had to pretend to be relaxed. Walked up and sat next to her.

Without saying anything else, he lay down on his own, covered himself with the quilt, and closed his eyes.

Gun Nanxi was so overwhelmed that she sat blankly on the bedside for a while, then clumsily and gently crawled over the man's body, and then lay beside him silently, fearing to wake him up.

Seeing that she was lying down obediently and not doing anything unusual, Qi Jian turned over and turned his back to her, seemingly sleeping peacefully.

However, after tonight, what shocked everyone in the palace even more was that King Qin actually stayed in Princess Nanxi’s yard for three days in a row. Although both of them knew in their hearts that they had not made any substantial progress, this honor was The favor made Gun Nanxi both surprised and happy. In this way, the whole family became more and more suspicious that the princess had fallen out of favor.

Although Gu Yuchu felt bad, he could still hold it in due to his status. However, Gu Yuchu's heart had long since lost the calmness it had three days ago.

She originally thought that for the sake of the King of Nanchang, Qi Jie would stay in Nanxi for a night and show off, and he would come to see her the next day, but she didn't expect this to be the case. Now even the maids are secretly laughing at her behind her back. The bird flew to the branch, but it was still just a house bird. She was so angry that she didn't eat or go out for two days. Even when Gu Yuchu came to see her, he looked like he had been beaten by frost, which was really heartbreaking.

But Gu Yuchu was too embarrassed to talk to Qi Jian about this kind of thing, which showed how much the two sisters longed for his kindness, so she could only endure it, even if she was filled with jealousy for hundreds of rounds.

Once, she met Qi Jian in the palace, who had just returned from the imperial court. In addition to pretending to be nonchalant, she also sagely told him to take care of his health. She was so angry that Qi Jian kept a dark face all day long.

On the fourth night, King Qin finally entered Gu Yuxin's courtyard.When Gu Yuxin saw King Qin, she looked at him with aggrieved resentment and said nothing but cried.

"Okay, okay, I've been crying for a long time. My eyes are so red and ugly." Qi Zhen couldn't help it. After all, he had grown up by his side and was pampered and pampered.

After Qi Jinyu came to question him, he realized that Gu Yu's heart had taken such a big detour to force Gu Yuchu to sacrifice his life to get close to her and himself. Whenever he thought of this, he felt itchy with hatred, so he deliberately Ignore her.

At this point, he has nothing to say.

It's just a pity that Qi Yiyu was originally a high-spirited young man with a malleable talent who could help him manage the affairs of the court. However, Gu Yuxin's thoughts were irreversible and he was left depressed and tormented by love, wandering the landscape. , no trace.

"Brother frame, you are bullying me." Gu Yuxin was very angry when she saw that he had nothing to say to her.

"Don't you know what you did?" Qi Jian was very impatient in the face of the woman's unreasonable troubles.

"I don't like King Han."

"Then you ran to tell him that your sister had promised you to me a long time ago?"

"Then I have no other good solution. You clearly know mine and yet you push me to others."

"Congratulations, you've got your wish now."

"Brother Jian, you actually know in your heart that you can't marry just your sister. Why can't it be me instead of someone else?" Gu Yuxin asked with tears in her eyes the deepest question in her heart.

"Then have you ever thought about your sister's situation?" Qi Jian had no choice but to ask.

Gu Yuxin was silent, how could she not know this, but she had no choice.

"I know my sister will be sad, but I don't regret it. Life is so short. I need to be worthy of myself first before I can be worthy of others."

"I don't mean to hurt you, but Xin'er, you must understand that your sister is different from others in my heart." Qi Zhi felt guilty for her and couldn't bear to be too harsh, but he still wanted to express his attitude to her.

"Brother Zhen, of course Xin'er knows. My sister has suffered for ten years for the sake of family feud and for Xin'er to be comfortable and happy. You can't make up for her too much. Even if Xin'er stays alone in the empty boudoir every day after today, It doesn’t matter, I just want to be with you forever, this is Xin’er’s biggest wish since entering the government.”

Qi Jian didn't reply. He didn't know Gu Yu Xin's thoughts, but he had too many things to do. Every day for ten years was like walking on thin ice.

In this world, men of his age already have children around their knees and wives and concubines, but he has no time and no ability to care about his loneliness, because he always feels that if the situation is uncertain, he will not be qualified to have a family.

But Gu Yuchu was a surprise. Although he couldn't resist, she never disrupted his progress and retreat.

And Gu Yuxin was the accident within the accident. He knew that even if he would marry many people against his will in the future, at least it wouldn't be her.

Qi Jian clearly knew that he was being plotted by the poor woman in front of him. Although it had nothing to do with the big plan, it did hurt Gu Yuchu's heart. Even though she smiled and refused to say anything.

It should still be a night full of love, but the bed became cold, magnifying the loneliness of the four of them as before.
