Chapter 226
When Jing Se and Fan Chen came to the front yard, Gu Beiyu had indeed been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Jing Se, Gu Beiyu suddenly felt countless guilt.

Jing Se was so sensitive, she could tell something was wrong with just one glance, with a smile on her face, "Bei Yu, come to me early in the morning, is there something wrong?"

Gu Beiyu was silent for a moment, as if it was difficult to speak.

Jing Se's eyes flickered, "Could it be that there was some conflict with my fourth cousin?"

Gu Beiyu raised his head, seeing Fan Chen and Jing Se looking at him, and thinking about the purpose of his trip, he slowly asked, "Can my cousin and brother-in-law listen to me first?"

Jing Se nodded, "It's okay, we have plenty of time, just say it."

Gu Beiyu sighed, and asked again: "Can my cousin understand the helplessness of my being born in the royal family?"

These words made Jingse feel bad, "Go on."

Gu Beiyu pursed his lips for a moment, "When every prince is 16 years old, the palace will arrange someone for sexual enlightenment, and I am no exception."

Jing Se frowned slightly.

She knows about this point, every prince is unavoidable, but Gu Gan is an exception, Gu Qian was still in a wheelchair when he was 16 years old, it is impossible for him to accept sexual enlightenment.

"At that time, my mother and concubine personally arranged for me to be a female official." Gu Beiyu continued, his face suddenly became serious, "But cousin, you believe me, I really only met that one, and I was constantly sent in. Concubines, those are my last resort in this position, I have never touched them."

Jing Se frowned even deeper, "But Bei Yu, what's the use of you coming to tell me these things?"

Shouldn't such words be said to Su Ying?

Gu Beiyu shouldn't have said these things to her in front of Fan Chen without any taboo, but his expression was very flustered, and something must have happened.

Thinking of this, Jing Se can no longer worry so much. What she is most worried about now is Su Ying's situation. What has happened to that silly girl all these days after she got married?
"The day before the big wedding, I kicked out all the women in the house." Gu Beiyu lowered his head, "My mother and concubine found out about this, and I personally sent a girl to the house yesterday."

Jing Se's face darkened slightly, "And then?"

"That woman's name is Nie Shuangshuang." Gu Beiyu still sighed, "As soon as she entered the mansion, she gave Yinger a blow, and Yinger was forced by her to give up the main courtyard that belonged to the princess. The look in her eyes was full of loss and pain, but at that time I hadn't thought of any countermeasures, so I could only let her feel wronged and live in a remote courtyard."

Jing Se was so angry that her face changed, she raised her hand and wanted to slap the table, but Fan Chen gently pulled her back, and said with a smile, "Listen to him first."

Jing Se glared at Fan Chen.

The other party didn't care at all, and his smile deepened, "Those who are about to give birth, please remember to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, otherwise our baby will be as irritable as you after birth."

Although Jing Se resented in her heart, she had to admit that what Fan Chen said was the truth, took a deep breath, calmed down slowly, and looked at Gu Beiyu coldly, "Then you can think of a countermeasure now?"

Family affection and women, Gu Beiyu chose family affection, Jing Se can understand, after all, Gu Beiyu has no feelings for Su Ying, but she is still not angry, there is not necessarily only one solution to this kind of thing, as long as you use your brain, you will not believe Jing The old lady and Concubine Tai Shu can continue to exert pressure.

"I thought of a solution once and for all, but I need the help of my cousin-in-law." Gu Beiyu finally got to the point.

Jing Se always thought that Gu Beiyu came to discuss countermeasures with him, but he didn't expect Gu Beiyu to say such a sentence suddenly.

She was a little stunned, "This is your own family business, what can Fan Chen do for you?"

Gu Beiyu said apologetically: "Yesterday I went into the palace to meet my concubine mother. She was extremely tough on this matter and insisted on letting me accept Nie Shuangshuang. My mind was in a mess at the time, so I had no choice but to agree temporarily. , and after tossing and turning all night, I still felt unacceptable. After all, I had no choice but to touch the female official arranged by my mother and concubine for sexual enlightenment. The women who came into the mansion later, no matter how beautiful they were, I couldn’t lift them up. Interesting, Yinger is my first wife, so I naturally treat her differently. As for Nie Shuangshuang who entered the mansion yesterday, since she treats Yinger so well, I naturally can't have any good feelings for her. So... I want to take her away."

After these words, Jing Se finally understood, "You mean, you want to take Nie Shuangshuang away with a reason that neither your grandmother nor your concubine can refute?"

"Yes." Gu Beiyu nodded, "It would be great if it could make her suffer a little more."

"What way?" Jing Se suddenly became interested. In her heart, Gu Beiyu has never been weak. On the contrary, this person hides his secrets. He is just used to the previous disguise, so he will never show up until the critical moment. He will show his fierce side, especially in front of her, he has always been very gentle.

Seeing that his cousin was willing to listen, Gu Beiyu finally relaxed his frown and explained his plan.

After listening, Jing Se looked at Fan Chen, "It sounds like this is the only way to do it now."

Fan Chen thought for a moment, then nodded, "This method is indeed good."

Gu Beiyu's face showed joy, "I also ask my cousin-in-law to help me. I have a disagreement with the regent king. He may not pay attention to my words, but the regent king is quite fond of my cousin-in-law. If you come forward, it will definitely succeed."

Jing Se also said: "Fan Chen, you just agree to Bei Yu, it's rare for him to come to my door full of shame and apologize for this matter, even if I am a cousin with a hard heart, it is impossible for me to be cruel and harsh he."

"You!" Fan Chen scratched the tip of her nose with a smile and nodded, "Okay, I'll go to the Prince Regent's Mansion tomorrow."

Gu Beiyu was overjoyed, "Thank you cousin-in-law for willing to help."

"You don't have to thank me." Fan Chen glanced at him, "helping you is entirely out of your cousin's face, otherwise I don't want to intervene in this kind of boring inner house fight."

These words made Gu Beiyu blush, "My cousin-in-law taught me a lesson, I will never allow this type of thing to happen again in the future."

Not long after Gu Beiyu left, Fan Chen accompanied Jingse to the back garden to admire the flowers for a day, and the next day he settled Jingse himself and went to the Prince Regent's Mansion.

It happened to be Xiu Mu, and Gu He happened to be at the residence.

Gu He was quite surprised when he heard his servants report to King Ning to see him. He raised his eyebrows and waved his hand, "Please come in."

When Fan Chen came in, Gu He had already divided the tea himself, and raised his hand to signal, "It's rare that King Ning is willing to come to me in person, please sit down."

Fan Chen didn't restrain himself, and sat on the seat opposite him.

"What's the matter?" Gu He was also a quick-spoken person.

"I want to ask you to borrow someone." Fan Shen said.

Gu He stopped drinking tea, then raised his eyebrows, "If I'm not wrong, there is only one person in this world. You can't get it from your personal power, but you have to borrow it from me. Tell me, why did you beat the emperor?" idea?"

"The regent's transparent and powerful mind is really impressive." Fan Chen boasted without hesitation.

These words really came from the bottom of his heart. Before he clearly said anything, the other party had already guessed who he wanted to borrow. This kind of thinking is completely beyond ordinary people. I am afraid that it can be compared with Zong Zhengchu. .

Gu He smiled faintly, "Prince Ning praised you, if it comes to thoughts, how many people in this world can stand shoulder to shoulder with you?"

"Isn't the regent one of them?" Fan Chen raised his lips. Gu He gave him the same feeling as Zongzheng Chu and Feng Lihen, but this person is very evil, neither good nor bad. Find out what the hell he's planning.

The last time Gu He took the initiative to invite him to the restaurant, he asked him to help temporarily let Gongsun Erruo go, saying that it would only take three years.

Since then, Fanchen's people have paid close attention to Gu He's movements, but the strange thing is that this person did not show any abnormal movements, and he still went to the palace every day to review the memorials, and then went to Jianzhang Palace to teach the little emperor. Reading is business as usual.

This point made Fan Shen puzzled.

If this momentum continues, what can Gu He accomplish within three years?

This person is getting more and more mysterious.

Gu He smiled, "It's my honor to be loved so much by King Ning."

"However..." The style of painting changed, "Friendship is friendship, business is business, one size is one size, what do you want the little emperor to do?"

Fan Shen said: "Miss Su Si who married into Prince Xian's Mansion is the Emperor's aunt, she wants to see the Emperor."

"This kind of excuse..." Gu Heying tapped the red sandalwood table with her white fingertips, and slightly raised her lips, "Ning Wang can deceive others, but he cannot deceive me."

This result was completely within Fan Chen's expectations, he smiled, "You want to tell the truth?"

"Of course, you can also make up endless lies." Gu He said, "It's just that when I promise you, it depends on which statement can make me believe it."

Fan Chen thought for a while, "Even if it is, help me deal with Jing's first move."

Gu He's eyes darkened a bit.

He gave Fan Chen a very mysterious feeling, so why not Fan Chen's feeling to him?

Countless spies have reported one thing to him: King Ning and Princess Ning have deep hostility towards the Jing family.

Gu He couldn't figure it out, Princess Ning had only been treated harshly by the Jing family for a few years, and the stepmother who treated her harshly had already been killed by her, where did she get her deep hatred?
Pulling back his thoughts, Gu He said with a smile: "King Ning seems to have a bloody feud with the Jing family, can you talk about it?"

Fan Chen smiled, "Of course." After a pause, "But the premise is that the regent might as well talk about his... life experience."

The smile on his face subsided slightly, and Gu He raised his head, "It seems that we both have a secret we can't tell each other."

Fan Chen said calmly: "Since you want to know my secret, I won't tell it, and I want to know your secret, but you won't tell it either, so let's see who finds out who first according to their own abilities."

Gu He laughed, "Interesting!"

"Let's get down to business." Fan Chen returned to the topic, "Does the regent borrow someone?"

"Excuse me." Gu He smiled, "It's just that after Princess Ning is out of confinement, I hope to see King Ning's figure in the court hall, oh no, Lord Zuoxiang."

"Deal!" Fan Chen readily agreed.

It was time for him and Gu He to formally confront each other.

No matter what the other party's purpose is, on this day, he can't avoid it no matter what.

"When are you going to Prince Xian's Mansion?" Gu He asked again.

Fan Chen thought for a while, "Tomorrow will also rest, if the regent is free, then tomorrow."

"Okay, at noon tomorrow, this king will personally take the little emperor to Prince Xian's mansion."

*
Xianwangfu.

After breakfast, Gu Beiyu went to the Listening Academy.

Su Ying was sitting in the hexagonal pavilion in the garden, holding an embroidery frame in her hand and carefully embroidering stitches and threads, on which a pair of mandarin ducks were lifelike.

Shuang'er stood aside, seeing Gu Beiyu walk in, her expression changed, she was about to kneel down to pay her respects, but was stopped by Gu Beiyu's silence gesture.

Shuang'er understood, secretly happy in her heart, and bent her knees to Su Ying, "Madam, this servant is going to fetch you some iced cheese and fruit."

Su Ying didn't look up, and gave a soft "hmm".

Shuang'er retreated happily. Ever since that woman Nie Shuangshuang came, the empress has become taciturn. Although there is no expression on her face, Shuang'er can tell that the empress must be feeling uncomfortable.

In the past two days, His Highness did not come to the Listening Academy, so he must have stayed in Fanghua Pavilion to pamper that woman, and finally hoped for His Highness to come, and let the young couple get along well with each other no matter what.

Shuang'er secretly prayed that the empress must find a way to reconcile with His Highness as before!
Su Ying embroidered for a while, her eyes were a little sore, she raised her hand to rub her eyes, but was lightly covered by someone first.

Su Ying froze all over, and she felt relieved when she smelled the familiar fragrance of pine wood, and asked with a smile, "Why is Your Highness here?"

Being guessed easily, Gu Beiyu let go of his hands covering her eyes, and hugged her from behind instead.

Su Ying froze again.

Since marrying into Prince Xian's mansion, Gu Beiyu has indeed treated her very well, but apart from those things in bed, the two of them treat each other with courtesy during the day, and it is the first time that they are as close as they are today.

Su Ying was a little out of breath, put the embroidery stretcher back into the sewing basket, and tied the knot, "His...Your Highness, it's daytime now!"

"Don't move, let me hug you."

Gu Beiyu's voice was extremely low and hoarse, and when he listened carefully, there was still a hint of depression hidden.

He spent the past two nights in the study.

When I am alone, I am extremely quiet, and when I am quiet, I can think about many things.

Apart from the female official who enlightened him back then, Su Ying is his first real woman. He didn't feel it when they were together. After two days of separation, he realized that he was actually obsessed with her unknowingly. When he fell in love with her, it was not only the body, but also an inexplicable feeling, which was completely different from the feeling he had when he liked Xia Mu at first, and then secretly missed Cousin Jingse.

It's the kind of strange feeling that he will start to miss her if he can't see her, and he will gradually feel distressed when he sees her hiding all the pain in his heart.

On the day Nie Shuangshuang came, Su Ying's sadness, loss, forbearance, stubbornness, and her gentle understanding when she persuaded him to accept Nie Shuangshuang, still echoed in his mind.

She asked him to empathize with his difficulties.

In fact, he really thought about it these two nights, and thought about it a lot.

So he figured out one thing.

Before their wedding, they had never met each other. At that time, he didn't like Su Ying, and Su Ying didn't like him either.

After the big wedding, Su Ying, the virtuous concubine, should do everything well. She was afraid that she might not be able to do anything properly. She often did many things by herself, and rarely pretended to others.

Maybe she hasn't fallen in love with him yet, maybe she doesn't have him in her heart at all, but she tries her best to make her responsibilities as perfect as possible, so that no one can find any flaws.

Even if a weak woman can do this, why would he, a man who is supposed to stand upright, bother to destroy such a rare place of peace of mind for a woman who stepped in halfway?
Because of this, he went to Fan Chen and asked him for help, hoping to take this opportunity to completely put an end to the idea of ​​his mother concubine and grandmother putting women around him again.

Feeling that his breathing was a little heavy on his shoulder, Su Ying was startled, and slowly turned her head, seeing that his eye circles were a little red.

"Your Highness...?" Su Ying was shocked when she saw Gu Beiyu like this for the first time, "What's wrong with you?"

Gu Beiyu let go of her slowly, and sat down beside her, "Yinger, did you ever blame me?"

Su Ying smiled, "Your Highness, you are serious. You are a prince. It is normal to have three wives and four concubines. The concubine is a concubine and the head of the house. If you don't even have this bit of guts, if you go out in the future, you will have to let people know." The joke is dead?"

"Are these words to comfort yourself, or to comfort me?" He stared at her with burning eyes.

Su Ying turned her eyes away, "How come... I naturally speak from the bottom of my heart."

"What if I tell you that I don't want any side concubine or concubine, but I want to follow the example of King Ning and Prince Yue and only marry one wife?"

His sudden words struck Su Ying like a thunderbolt. She couldn't recover for a while, but just looked at him in astonishment, momentarily at a loss.

Could it be that His Highness is making her happy by saying this?
Nie Shuangshuang is a woman sent by her mother-in-law, how could His Highness disobey her mother-in-law's orders for her?

"Your Highness, don't joke." Su Ying poured tea for him herself, "If my concubine hears these words, she will be upset."

"Don't worry about the concubine mother." Gu Beiyu looked into her eyes, "Tell me, if I take Nie Shuangshuang away, you will only be the mistress in the Xianwang mansion from now on, will you be happy?"

"Concubine..." Su Ying's words got stuck in her throat.

"I haven't touched her." Gu Beiyu hurriedly explained, "I slept in the study for the past two nights, and I didn't even touch a piece of her clothes."

Su Ying was so shocked that she was speechless.

"Even..." Gu Beiyu paused, "There are so many concubines in my house, but I have only ever met one, and that was sent by my concubine to give me sexual enlightenment when I was 16 years old. Lady, she stayed in my house later. The day before our wedding, I kicked them all out, including the lady. I thought I was responsible for you by doing so, but I didn't expect that later So many bad things are going to happen.”

"When I was alone, I was still thinking, if I had known today, I would not have selected you at the concubine selection banquet back then. Maybe you would be able to marry better in the future than now. Not like me..."

Before Gu Beiyu finished speaking, Su Ying covered her mouth with her hand.

She was still the same as before, her expression was calm, her eyes were clear, and she slowly shook her head, "Your Highness will not say these words in the future. Since I am married to Your Highness, I will be His Highness's person for the rest of my life. There are not so many in this world. , our current situation is the best result in the "if". In fact, I never expect to be a couple with His Highness forever, as long as His Highness still has a place in my heart. Very happy, really."

Seeing her finally showing a knowing smile, his mood that had been hazy for a long time finally cleared up, "Okay, as you said, since you marry me, then you can only be my wife, Gu Beiyu's wife for the rest of your life."

Su Ying was stunned, then nodded with a smile after a while.

Gu Beiyu took advantage of the opportunity and scratched the tip of her small nose, "Little fool, I'm serious, give me a few more days, and this matter will be settled completely, and I will let my concubine and grandma stop stuffing women around me. I promise you, this life is only good for you."

Su Ying couldn't believe that these words would come out of Gu Beiyu's mouth, she lowered her head and pinched herself.

It hurts, it seems that I am not dreaming.

"But... why does Your Highness suddenly think of saying this?"

Gu Beiyu pondered.

When he went to Chu Palace, he saw the daily relationship between Jing Se and Fan Chen. The warmth was so enviable. At that moment, he suddenly understood everything.

What he has been looking for is just a throbbing that can never be seen, touched or obtained, and he feels precious because he can't get it.

But in fact, after thinking about it, even if he really married Jingse, he might not be able to give her the kind of love and happiness that Fan Chen gave her, and even suddenly he didn't know how to get along with Jingse.

That kind of feeling, as if the god you have been worshiping suddenly descended to you from the nine heavens one day, the former sense of mystery and aloof dignity are no longer there, which will cause a great psychological gap.

Since he is a god, he should always be placed in a position that is difficult for ordinary people to be called a "god" and be worshiped forever.

It can be seen from this that whether it is Xia Mu or Jing Se, he has more admiration for them than love.

He admired their amazing talents, just like admiring the gods in the sky, rather than liking them for how they are.

Leaving those two gods aside, there is a woman now. Her existence makes him feel very real and at ease. Although there is no vigor and vitality between them, and the time they spend together is not too long, but she is the kind of woman he doesn't want to be with any other woman except her. The touch feels too strong.

He didn't understand, did he care about it, or did he like it, or maybe... something deeper than liking?

All in all, he has no way to draw these boundaries. He just understands that he is willing to live the most ordinary life with her, even if there are not so many surprises and shocks in life.

Pulling back his thoughts, Gu Beiyu smiled slightly, "My hometown is where my heart is at ease. You are the first person who makes me feel at ease and finds the feeling of going home. I think I will spend my whole life guarding this place. Peace of mind."

After that, he took out an ebony hairpin from his bosom, pulled her hand and placed it in her palm, "Everything before today will be gone with the wind, let's start again, okay?"

Su Ying looked at the ebony hairpin in her palm. It was very unique. At the end was a lifelike little fox. Even the expression was carved vividly. The eyes of the little fox were inlaid with two small sapphires, which looked vivid.

"In the past two days, I carved it myself." He said slowly, "When I was young, my father gave me a carved parrot, but someone broke one of its wings. In order not to be noticed by my father, I found the wood by myself and learned to carve secretly, and then glued it on with white glue when the carve was about [-]% like it should be, without any traces. Since then, I like to carve, but I have been busy for so many years... ..." Gu Beiyu wanted to say that he had been busy accumulating power and layout secretly for so many years, but he stopped suddenly when he was on the verge of speaking.

Even Jing Se and Fan Chen didn't know about this matter, so it's not appropriate for him to say it rashly.

Su Ying sensed the embarrassment in Gu Beiyu's words, she smiled, and raised the ebony fox hairpin in her hand, "Your Highness's hand is really skillful, this little thing, I like it very much."

Seeing her happy, Gu Beiyu also laughed, "As long as you like it, I will make more for you in the future."

"No!" Su Ying shook her head, "One is enough. Rare things are more expensive. I only need to remember what His Highness said to me here today, and finally gave me a fox hairpin." , that's enough."

Gu Beiyu seized the opportunity to hold her hand, "So, Ying'er agrees with me and promises to start over with me from now on?"

Su Ying's face was reddish, she turned her head and didn't dare to look at him.

Gu Beiyu took her into his arms, and at an angle that Su Ying didn't see, his originally clear eyes darkened completely, and the cold air was frightening.

Believe me, one day, I will give you not only a home, but also a beautiful landscape!
*
Sure enough, Gu He did what he said, and on the second day, he tried his best to overcome all opinions and brought the little emperor to the Xianwang Mansion.

Gu Beiyu came out to greet him with the whole family.

The little emperor rolled his eyes.

Gu He glanced at the crowd, then pointed to Su Ying and told him, "Your Majesty, that is your fourth aunt."

The little emperor puffed up his face and walked over slowly.

Su Ying was still kneeling on the ground at this time, and from the corner of her eye, she saw the little bright yellow figure of the little emperor, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and although she didn't look up, she could imagine how beautiful this child was.

It turned out that this was the eldest sister's child.

When Su Ying and Gu Beiyu went to the palace to serve tea on the second day after their wedding, they didn't see Gu Zizhan, but went to see Concubine Tai Shu, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager.

Therefore, this was the first time Su Ying saw Gu Zizhan.

"Huh..." Gu Zizhan stopped in front of Su Ying, looked at the fox ebony hairpin on Su Ying's head, stretched out his chubby little hand and pointed, then looked at Gu He, as if he had discovered something People are particularly excited about things, "Little uncle, cats."

The people who were kneeling on the ground to greet the emperor did not dare to express their anger, because they did not look up, so no one knew what the little emperor was talking about.

Gu He walked over with a smile and said, "This is not a cat, it's a fox."

"What is a fox?" The little emperor was extremely curious.

Gu He explained very patiently, "The fox is a very cunning animal."

"Oh." The little emperor nodded half-understanding, "Yangyang also wants one."

"Okay." Gu He said: "When the autumn hunt comes, I will bring back a beautiful little fox alive for His Majesty."

After finishing speaking, Gu He looked at everyone, "Let's all get flat!"

Everyone thanks for getting up.

Nie Shuangshuang finally dared to look up at the cute little emperor Yuxue ahead.

As early as when I first came to Jinling, I heard Mrs. Jing and Concubine Tai Shu say that this is a very smart master, and he must not be easily offended. Back then, Princess Jiahua yelled at him. The empress dowager couldn't keep it, so she had to cut her flesh and let her biological daughter go to Jingming nunnery to practice.

Thinking of this, Nie Shuangshuang was grateful, but at the same time a little jealous.

Su Ying, a bitch, is actually the fourth aunt of the little emperor. If the relationship between the two gets along well, wouldn't it be a great disadvantage to me?
Thinking that since entering the mansion, even if he tried his best, he still couldn't win His Highness's love, and he would rather sleep in the study than accept her, Nie Shuangshuang hated her teeth.

"Auntie and auntie." The little emperor suddenly took Su Ying's hand, his dark eyes were innocent, "Yangyang also wants a little fox hairpin."

It was the first time to meet the emperor at such a close distance, and to be called by him so affectionately. Su Ying was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "If your majesty wants it, I will give you this one from my wife."

As she spoke, she reached out to pull out the ebony hairpin on her head.

Gu Hewen said in a warm voice: "I heard that this is a token carved by the sage himself for the concubine. How can he give it to others so easily? If the sage doesn't mind the trouble, can he re-carve it for His Majesty? No hairpin, just a little fox."

Gu Beiyu nodded, "As long as His Majesty likes it, I will immediately prepare tools and start carving."

Nie Shuangshuang's eyes seemed to be on fire, burning on Su Ying's ebony hairpin.

No wonder when she secretly went to the study room in the front yard the night before, she saw His Highness sitting in front of the desk with a carving knife carving something, but it turned out that it was for Su Ying.

Suppressing the reluctance in her heart, Nie Shuangshuang retracted her eyes and secretly comforted herself. She is still young, and there will be opportunities to please His Highness in the future. Even if Su Ying got a good deal in the past, it will not be so easy in the future!
After standing for a while, the little emperor shouted that he was tired and wanted to rest in his aunt's yard.

Gu Beiyu gave Su Ying a wink, intending for her to personally send the little emperor to the backyard to rest.

Su Ying immediately understood, and pulled the little emperor to go to the backyard.

Nie Shuang's eyes moved, and after Gu He and Gu Beiyu walked into the front hall and the crowd dispersed, she secretly followed Su Ying.

Su Ying took the little emperor to the direction of the Listening Academy.

This road can pass through Fanghua Pavilion.

Standing outside Fanghua Pavilion, the little emperor didn't leave.

Su Ying showed doubts, "Your Majesty, aren't you sleepy? Can my wife take you to rest?"

The little emperor broke free from Su Ying's hand, pointed to the Fanghua Pavilion, and asked, "Does my aunt live here?"

Su Ying showed embarrassment, "This..."

"Yangyang recognizes it, this is the main courtyard." The little emperor giggled, "My aunt is the princess, and the main courtyard is my aunt's yard."

Su Ying's expression changed.

Nie Shuangshuang, who had been following them and was hiding beside the rockery, bit her lip, feeling a little flustered.

After all, as a concubine, she snatched the mistress's yard right after she entered the mansion, which was not in line with reason or reason. If the little emperor grabbed her by the braid, she would be in danger.

The little emperor stood for a while, and was about to follow Su Ying to move on, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the leaves of the loquat tree protruding from the courtyard of Fanghua Pavilion, and the ripe loquat fruits were hidden among them, all of them were plump and round, and could faintly smell the sweetness taste.

"Aunt, Yang Yang wants to eat loquat." The little emperor stood still, pouted.

Su Ying looked at the loquat tree full of fruits in the Fanghua Pavilion, and smiled, "Okay, my wife, let someone pick it for you."

"No!" The little prince shook his head, "Yangyang wants to climb up to pick it by himself."

Su Ying's face changed greatly, "Your Majesty must not."

The little emperor blinked, his expression extremely firm.

Su Ying had no choice but to persuade, "Your Majesty, I'll let someone pick it up for you right away, and make sure that none of them fall off the ground, okay?"

"Don't, don't." The little emperor held his head and shook, "Yangyang will pick it up by himself."

Su Ying glanced around, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

The loquat tree is so tall, what if the little emperor climbs up and falls down?
At this time, Nie Shuangshuang came out from nowhere, with a smile on his face.

"Sister, since the emperor likes loquats so much, and this loquat tree happens to be in my sister's yard, then let my sister ask someone to pick it for the emperor."

Following this journey, she found that apart from being cute, this little emperor had nothing special about him. He was just a two-year-old child. Could he do anything that would make a sensation in the world?
Thinking of this, Nie Shuangshuang suddenly felt that Mrs. Jing and Concubine Tai Shu were too worried. The rumors about the little emperor must be exaggerated by people with intentions, so that the world will have more respect and worship for the emperor who ascended the throne at the age of two. .

Since he was only two years old, he was still clingy. If he took the initiative to show his favor, he might still win his favor. With the barrier of the little emperor, would he be afraid of being bullied in the future?

Pulling back her thoughts, Nie Shuangshuang smiled deeper, "What do you think, sister?"

Su Ying took a deep look at Nie Shuangshuang. She didn't know what this woman was planning, but it was not difficult to guess from the smile on her face that it was definitely not a good thing.

What I was holding in my hand was not a baby from an ordinary family, but today, if something happened to me, not only would I be convicted, but my Highness and the Duke of Jin's government would also be implicated.

No matter how she thought about it, Su Ying couldn't let this woman, Nie Shuangshuang, get close to the little emperor.

With a slight smile, Su Ying said: "I'm sorry to bother my sister, but since the loquat tree is in my sister's yard, there is no need. There are still loquat trees in the back garden. I will take the emperor to pick them."

Hearing this, the little emperor became displeased, his mouth pouted again, his eyes were watery, "Auntie, Yangyang wants the loquat from this tree."

Su Ying was in a dilemma, and her heart was full of worries.

Nie Shuangshuang smiled even more proudly, "Sister, the emperor said that he wants the loquat in Fanghua Pavilion, but you refuse to do so. Is this trying to resist the order?"

Su Ying's face froze.

Nie Shuangshuang raised the corners of her mouth, walked to the little emperor, and said softly, "Your Majesty, let's go in and pick loquats, shall we?"

"Okay." The little emperor happily waved the chubby hand, motioning for Nie Shuangshuang to pull.

It turned out that the outside rumors were wrong, the black-bellied emperor was simply a two-year-old fool.

The color in Nie Shuangshuang's eyes flashed away, and he took the little emperor's hand actively.

"Your Majesty." Su Ying's heart sank again and again, and she didn't understand why he had a good impression of Nie Shuangshuang.

Seeing Nie Shuangshuang dragging the little emperor into the Fanghua Pavilion, Su Ying had no choice but to follow, and by the way, asked to call all the maids and women nearby, so that if something happened, there would be many witnesses .

When they got under the loquat tree, Nie Shuangshuang asked softly, "How does the emperor want to pick it?"

The little emperor took it for granted, "I want to pick the loquats myself."

"Then I'll send someone to get the ladder." Nie Shuangshuang turned around and was about to leave.

The little emperor suddenly called her, "Hey, wait a minute."

Nie Shuangshuang was puzzled.

The little emperor said: "Since this is your yard, you can help me pick it."

Nie Shuangshuang was flattered.

Su Ying was very anxious, "Your Majesty, this tree is so tall, and you are so small, you can't climb it."

The little emperor tilted his head to look at Su Ying, and smiled sweetly, "Auntie, Yangyang doesn't climb trees."

"Ah?" Su Ying was taken aback.

After the little emperor finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Nie Shuangshuang, "You, squat down for me."

Nie Shuangshuang was taken aback for a moment, "What does the emperor want to do?"

The little emperor pouted, "I want to step on your shoulders to pick loquats."

Nie Shuangshuang was a little embarrassed.

The little emperor was displeased, "How dare you resist what I said?"

Nie Shuangshuang glanced at the maids and women around her, her face turned pale.

He squatted down reluctantly.

The little emperor waved to Su Ying, "Auntie, help me up."

Of course Su Ying disagreed.

After all, the little emperor is equivalent to handing over his life to a woman like Nie Shuangshuang. If something goes wrong, no one will be able to afford it for a while.

She wanted to persuade him again, but she suddenly realized that this is the emperor, not a child that ordinary people can haggle casually.

Su Ying finally supported the little emperor and stepped on Nie Shuangshuang's shoulder.

Nie Shuangshuang stood up slowly, and Su Ying saw her trembling with each other.

Feeling anxious, Su Ying said: "Shuangshuang, you have to stand firm, otherwise if you dare to make a mistake and hurt the emperor, this princess will be the first to let you go!"

Nie Shuangshuang was sweating profusely at this moment, how could she dare to answer Su Ying's words, she was afraid that if she uttered a little tremor, the little ancestor who stepped on her shoulder would be shaken off, and she would be completely finished by then.

The loquat tree is not too high, the little emperor stepped on Nie Shuangshuang's shoulders, and he could reach it with a little hand.

Su Ying hurriedly brought a bamboo basket to catch it. After all, she was small and weak, so the little emperor took a lot of effort to pick it, and it took a long time to pick the next one.

Every time he plucked it, Su Ying's heart rose to her throat, and sweat broke out on her forehead.

Nie Shuangshuang, who was stepped on by the little emperor on the shoulder, was even worse. No matter how small the little emperor was, it still had some weight. If he stepped on it for a while, Nie Shuangshuang could still hold on, but after a long time, Nie Shuangshuang couldn't bear it anymore. , she stiffened her neck, her shoulders hurt so much that she wanted to throw the person above her down.

The little emperor threw the plucked loquats into the bamboo basket again, grabbed the loquat tree above his head with his small hands, and suddenly said to Su Ying with his mouth flattened: "Auntie, Yangyang wants to pee."

I can finally come down.

Su Ying's tense heartstrings suddenly loosened, and she was about to get someone to find a ladder to help the little emperor get down, but unexpectedly, he peed on his pants, covered by his clothes, sprayed not far away, and splashed all over Nie Shuangshuang's head along the legs of his trousers Then flow down the head to the face.

"Ahhh-"

For a moment, Nie Shuangshuang's screams resounded like killing a pig resounding over the inner courtyard of Prince Xian's Mansion.

 Yiyi planted the foreshadowing at the beginning of the chapter, about Gu Beiyu, hehe, I hope the cuties don't rush to convict him!
