Chapter 24

It wasn't until Jing Shi said the last sentence that Gu Chengyuan finally made a movement, his face raised his eyes calmly, his voice was cool, and he approached Jing Shi with a bit of oppression that could not be said.

"My things have never been in the habit of handing over to others."

Jing Shi's figure trembled slightly, and he lowered his head slowly after a while, and replied: "Understood, I will stay in the palace to take care of Xiaoqi for the next two days, and please ask the prince to help me take a leave of absence from the imperial hospital."

Gu Chengyuan's gaze on Jing Shi didn't stay for long, he quickly closed his eyes, and said coldly: "Okay."

Jing Shi pursed his lips, stopped looking at Gu Chengyuan's expression, and turned around to leave.

In the middle of the night, Xuan Yinruo didn't sleep well because of the throbbing pain in her right leg. In a trance, a warm and delicate touch touched the top of her head, and her movements gently followed her soft hair.

The voice was low and magnetic as if just waking up, with a touch of hoarseness: "Does it hurt?"

Xuan Yinruo trembled his little paws with some discomfort, and whimpered in a low voice, which sounded like unbearable pain.

Gu Chengyuan's clear eyebrows and eyes were stained a little deep, but the movements of his hands were gentle and slow, gathering his internal strength to slowly press and pinch Xuan Yinruo's body.

In drowsiness, Xuan Yinruo only felt a burst of warmth running through her body from top to bottom, which miraculously drove away the coldness and pain, making her much more stable.

In the early morning of the next day, if Xuan Yin was called up by Jing Shi to take medicine, she blinked her eyes, looked around the entire hall, and looked outside the door anxiously, as if she was waiting for something.

Seeing this, Jing Shi curled his lips, and stood in front of Xuan Yinruo, with an inexplicable sourness in his tone: "Don't wait, your prince returned to the palace in a sedan chair early in the morning."

"Ow~"

Xuan Yinruo raised her small head, stuck out her tongue at him disdainfully, her two little paws were close together in front of her body, to show that she didn't mean to wait for Gu Chengyuan.

Jing Shi was amused by her, he slowly kneaded her head, put the medicine bowl near her mouth, watched her bury her head in drinking the medicine, couldn't help but started to pry the corner of the wall again: "Xiao Qi, Follow me to eat meat! You really don't think about it?"

Xuan Yinruo replied with the back of his head without even raising his head.

Although he had known the result a long time ago, Jing Shi still felt a sense of disappointment in his heart, patted her on the head pretending to be relaxed, and muttered softly: "I really have no vision!"

Love Cloud Palace.

Yu Xinrou lazily leaned on the blood-red fox soft couch, playing with her slender and delicate fingers boredly, Cailian hurried in from outside the hall, and leaned slightly towards Yu Xinrou: "Your Majesty, the princess is here , it seems that his complexion is not very good."

Yu Xinrou twitched the corners of her lips mockingly, and her voice was Su Mei lazily: "Second sister has never visited since I entered the palace, why are you free to come here today? It's really strange, let her come in."

Not long after, Yu Xinyan walked in slowly from outside the hall. The years did not leave traces on her face, but she looked as young and delicate as a [-]-year-old youth. Her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Yu Xinrou's, but With a more mature and dignified temperament, she sat down on the soft couch on the opposite side of her, and asked coldly: "I heard from my father that you told the regent about Xiu Xian's opening of a gambling house?"

Yu Xinrou raised her eyes lazily when she heard the words, gracefully twirled her fingertips to pick up the incense burner in front of the desk, and replied casually: "I said why the second sister came here today, so it turned out that she was doing it for herself My younger brother, Xingshi, is here to ask questions."

Yu Xinyan's face darkened, and she had been by Gu Chengye's side for many years, and she had also cultivated the ability not to be angry and arrogant. Just sitting there quietly made people feel oppressed.

"Xin Rou, although you and I are not from the same mother, I have always treated your sister the same to you and to Xiuxian. But what you did this time is too disappointing! Do you know that now Xiuxian He has been imprisoned in Dali Temple, his legs are useless, and he will be interrogated by the three divisions in three days. Regardless of the results of the interrogation, one of his lives is ruined in your hands."

Hearing this, Yu Xinrou paused the movements of her hands, and a bit of boredom welled up in her eyes.

Yu Xinyan is like this, always standing on a high ground with a sincere look and accusing her, as if she is a cowardly and incompetent child.

Yu Xinrou put away her thoughts, and said lightly: "Last time, Prime Minister Yu had already approached me about this matter, and he also said that the Yu family will have nothing to do with me in the future. Could it be that the second sister came here today to criticize Yu? Xiang's face?"

Hearing Yu Xinrou's mocking tone, Yu Xinyan's expression was already showing a bit of anger, but she had to try her best to suppress it: "Xinrou, I don't care what conflicts you have with your father, we are a family after all, As long as you talk to the emperor today and ask Gu Chengyuan to suspend the interrogation of Xiuxian during this period, we can forget about this matter."

Yu Xinrou laughed directly when she heard this: "It turns out that the second sister didn't come to accuse me, but asked me to come forward and save Yu Xiuxian's life at the risk of offending the regent?"

Yu Xinyan's expression was a little annoyed when she was hit, but she still replied patiently: "In this situation, it's hard for both father and prince to come forward, so I can only rely on you."

"Understood." Yu Xinrou played with her fingers slowly and lazily said, "It depends on my mood."

When I came to the palace specially once, I got such an ambiguous answer, but Yu Xinyan didn't dare to press too hard, lest she impulsively make a bigger mess, so I could only exchange a few casual greetings, seeing that she was not interested He told him again before leaving.

After Yu Xinyan left, Yu Xinrou sat alone in the empty and exquisite palace in a daze for a long time, and asked Cailian beside her a little lonely: "Tell me, did they treat me as a family member?"

Back then, he insisted on going his own way and sent her to the palace regardless of her wishes in order to consolidate the power in the court. Now that Yu Xiuxian is suffering, he licks his face and asks for help.

"My lady..."

Cai Lian wanted to say something else, but Yu Xinrou had recovered her elegant and lazy look, and said lightly, "Go to Zhaohui Hall."
-
In Zhaohui Hall, Mr. Fu just stood by and looked at Gu Sinian, his eyes were very gratified. Soon there was a young eunuch outside the door reporting that Concubine Rou begged to see him.

Gu Sinian raised his head from the obscure document, and said with some joy: "Quickly let... let her in."

Not long after, Yu Xinrou dressed in a simple peacock dress and a milky white cape, and gracefully saluted Gu Sinian.

Gu Sinian hurriedly put down the pen and paper, and hurriedly walked over to help her up: "Rou'er...you don't need to be polite, hurry...get up."

After she was seated, Gu Sinian sat beside her, with a faint blush on her face, and asked shyly and excitedly, "Rou'er is here... What... What is it?"

Yu Xinrou's expression remained unchanged, and she replied calmly: "Your Majesty, it will be New Year's Eve in a few days, and my concubine remembered something while handling the palace banquet recently, so I came here to inform His Majesty."
