Gu Yuqi had just entered Beijing, and the news had already spread throughout the capital as if she had grown wings.
There is no way, Gu Yuqi is the most popular among the noble ladies in the capital recently, even if she wants to keep a low profile, it is impossible. For her things, both good and bad. Some said that she was a hero of the country, and some said that she was disobedient and unfilial. In fact, they are all secondary, and the key depends on His Majesty's will.
The other houses all took the attitude of watching the excitement, but a few of the houses were really busy.
Ever since Yunyi got the news, he felt itchy in his heart. He had been looking at the portrait for a long time, and now that the real person came back, he had absolutely no reason to look at the portrait again.
He had a fierce fight with Gu Siyang before. Now he can use Gu Siyang no matter what.
That night, he found a reason to post a post for Gu Siyang, then took a few ancient books, changed into a fancy dress, got into a soft nun sedan chair, and came tremblingly to the gate of Dingyuan Hou's Mansion .
Seeing that it was His Royal Highness Jing Wang who came in person, the porter did not dare to neglect, opened the middle door immediately, and welcomed His Highness Jing Wang in.
Yun Yi went directly to Jingsi Pavilion to find Gu Siyang, and handed several ancient books to him.
Gu Siyang is naturally happy, and after thanking him, he also wants to show his friendship as a landlord.
Relying on his familiarity with Gu Siyang, Yun Yi didn't beat around the bush, and proposed to meet Gu Yuqi.
Gu Siyang didn't think much about anything else, since His Royal Highness King Jing wants to see Elder Sister, it's a good thing. From the bottom of his heart, he still likes this amiable and approachable His Royal Highness Jing Wang. He has already condescended to come to his yard, how could he refuse such a rare request.
Besides, His Royal Highness Prince Jing has always been known as a gentleman. How could he do anything to overstep his eldest sister.
So Gu Siyang asked His Royal Highness King Jing to wait in the garden, and he went to invite Gu Yuqi.
When Gu Siyang went to the Danxia Courtyard and told himself that King Jing wanted to see Gu Yuqi, Gu Yuqi frowned, "Siyang, you are not young anymore, why are you still so reckless?" Gu Yuqi said displeasedly, "In the capital city There is no reason to say that you can see other people's daughters, not even His Royal Highness Jing Wang."
Gossip spreads very quickly in Beijing, no more than other places, especially since everyone in this family has their own thoughts, Gu Yuqi has to guard against it.
Speaking of which, there is nothing wrong with going to see His Royal Highness King Jing, but why do you want to see him? It's not that Gu Yuqi has finished all her own affairs, her idle face hurts.
Besides, what are Liu Yue and Gu Huaizhong thinking? If I take this matter out and make some articles, it will be annoying.
Gu Siyang obviously didn't expect that Gu Yuqi would reject him categorically, and felt a little disappointed in his heart. But after thinking about it, what I did was really wrong, how could I let my elder sister meet other men privately in the garden.
So he could only go back to Yunyi.
The more you can't see it. The bottom of Yun Yi's heart is itching more and more, obviously the beauty is not far away. But I have to go back and look at the portrait again, how can I bear it.
On the surface, he complied and left the Hou's Mansion, but as soon as he turned a corner, he got off the sedan chair and quietly crossed the fence of the Hou's Mansion.
When he was in the Hou Mansion, he roughly asked about the location of Danxia Courtyard, so relying on his own impression, he even took advantage of the night to touch it.
Gu Yuqi waited on her mother to take the medicine, returned to her boudoir and had just finished taking a bath, the night breeze was just right, and the scent of osmanthus was wafting in the yard, Gu Yuqi didn't close the window, but sat under the lamp with her shawl on and looked at Lou Xiao's writing Rouran Fengwuzhi. Lou Xiao really had a heart, he wrote a new book and sent it to the Liang Mansion in Kuizhou. After receiving it, Li Da sent someone to send it to Gu Yuqi.
They had already agreed on the lines and codes for mutual communication, so it was a breeze for Li Da to send a book, not to mention that they were all shareholders of Jishun Suda.
After Gu Yuqi received it, she couldn't put it down. This book supplemented the things that were not covered in the previous book, and it also included some soft illustrations of mountains and rivers. Lou Xiao's writing style is good, the paintings are even better, and the humanistic style is vivid on the paper .
Gu Yuqi was fascinated by watching it.
She was fascinated by reading, and when Yunyi saw Gu Yuqi for the first time, her eyes could no longer move her place.
Under the moon, in front of the lamp, through the flower window, a beautiful red shadow was sitting there.
She just took a bath, her long hair was draped over her shoulders, with a little dampness, her hair was not very straight, with a slight curvature at the tip, but it was more charming than straight hair. She stepped on the carpet of later generations with her bare feet. Her feet were extremely beautiful, as if they were carved from white jade. Her nails had not been dyed, but they were all plump and round with a healthy pink color. The slender and uniform ankles were looming under the layers of gauze, and the candlelight projected her almost perfect profile on the opposite wall, which was as warm as water.
Her eyebrows are extremely gorgeous, like poppies blooming in the dark night, she is looking at the book in her hand intently, the corners of her lips are slightly upturned, and there is a faint smile, her lips are as moist and smooth as before. Picked cherries.
It's so beautiful, no wonder Gu Siyang was so annoyed at the beginning, saying that his skills were not enough, and the portraits he painted were not as good as himself. Now seeing the real Gu Yuqi, Yunyi felt that everything he saw before was muddy, only Gu Yuqi in front of the window under the moonlight It is fresh and beautiful.
He wants to lose her!
He wants to get Da Qi's country, and he also wants to get Da Qi's beauty!
Yun Yi wanted to take a step forward to get closer, but accidentally stepped on a dead branch, which made a crisp sound of breaking, startling Gu Yuqi who was in front of the window.
"Who is it?" Seemingly aware of something strange outside, Gu Yuqi suddenly grabbed the sword hanging by the bed, and quickly spun out.
When her sword stabbed at Yunyi's hiding place just now, it missed.
"Strange." Gu Yuqi looked around and murmured, "Could it be the wild cats in the yard?" This yard has been unoccupied for a long time, but it was also taken up by wild cats who came from nowhere, and they just moved in in the evening At that time, Chun Xing drove out several of them.
Maybe she was too nervous. Gu Yuqi checked around again, but found nothing, so she put away her sword and went back sullenly.
Yun Yi was covered in cold sweat, if he hadn't hid quickly, I'm afraid Gu Yuqi would really find out.
Not bad, not bad, the beauty has nothing to say, and the skill is also good! Such a beauty, Yun Yi only wished to pack her up and take her back to Prince Jing's Mansion immediately.
But it's not enough now, he still needs to bear it a little longer, the prince is still sitting on the throne of the prince, now is the time when the two sides are wrestling, he naturally cannot have any reason to be caught.
The man has already returned to the capital, and he can't fly far away, Yun Yi looked back at the beauty under the window reluctantly again, it seems that he must enter the palace again tomorrow to beg his mother and concubine.
At the same time, Yun Ke was also at Princess Pinghu's residence.
He came to beg Princess Pinghu.
"Aunt Huang, Gu Yuqi has already returned to Beijing." Yun Ke respectfully presented the things she brought, and then reminded her.
Princess Pinghu opened the gift box and saw that it was a string of necklaces inherited from Dongzhu. The Dongzhu was about the same size and round and lustrous as usual. It is not difficult to find one such Dongzhu, but it takes dozens of them. It's hard to be the same size. Princess Pinghu is a person who knows the goods, so she is naturally very happy in her heart.
"It seems that Xiaoqi has paid a lot of attention to this daughter of the Dingyuanhou family." Princess Pinghu laughed jokingly.
"The nephew is not for the daughter of Dingyuan Hou's family, but for Gu Yuqi." Yun Ke said calmly.
"That's right, there is a concubine's daughter in Dingyuan Hou's family." Princess Pinghu thought for a while, "However, I heard that Empress Defei also mentioned the daughter of Dingyuan Hou's family in front of Your Majesty." She tried He asked, "Could it be that that kid Yunyi has also taken a fancy to Gu Yuqi?"
Yun Ke's heart sank faintly, "Nephew, please ask Aunt Huang for help."
"For a woman, if your brothers turn against each other, it's not worth it." Princess Pinghu said lightly. "If all of you are asking for Gu Yuqi, there must be one person who will give in."
Yun Ke yielded everything to Yun Yi, Princess Pinghu knew this.
"The emperor's aunt." Yun Ke lifted his clothes and knelt down in front of Princess Pinghu, "My nephew has never asked for anything in this life. This time I really need to ask the emperor's aunt for help. If my nephew can't marry Gu Yuqi , Even if you die, you don't rest in peace." Diao Zhujinxue.
Princess Pinghu's eyebrows twitched slightly, and Yun Ke, who had always been tolerant, said such words tonight, which really surprised her.
"Aren't you afraid of offending His Royal Highness Prince Jing?" Princess Pinghu lowered her voice and asked.
"Aunt Huang, my nephew has always let the fifth emperor brother, but this matter is the only one that my nephew must not let. I ask Aunt Huang to understand my nephew's feelings."
Hearing Yun Ke's sonorous and forceful words, Princess Pinghu couldn't help but feel a little sigh in her heart.
It seems that my nephew, who has always been cold, has really taken a fancy to that girl Gu Yuqi.
She looked at Yun Ke with pity, and the young man knelt upright in front of her, motionless as a mountain.
"Okay, get up." Princess Pinghu sighed after a long time, "I know, I will enter the palace tomorrow to meet your royal father."
"Thank you, Aunt Huang." Yun Ke respectfully kowtowed to Princess Pinghu, and then slowly stood up.
"That girl's reputation has been damaged. Can I ask you to become your main concubine? The imperial aunt can't guarantee it, but it's still possible to be a side concubine." Princess Pinghu thought for a while and said. Just follow the mother's heart and lose the sister-in-law's will. If Concubine De also spoke to His Majesty, it would be difficult.
Concubine De's words have always carried weight in front of His Majesty, as long as she asks for it, it will definitely not come to nothing.
Princess Pinghu looked at her nephew's handsome appearance, and sighed again from the bottom of her heart. This time, she had to put all her old face into it.
