188, two portraits
Gu Qianrou told Concubine Pei what she had just had at Princess Anran's place, and Concubine Pei also frowned, "Princess Anran is really defiant, does she think this is the border?"
Gu Qianrou was suppressing her disgust to stay by Princess Anran's side, but she was dismissed like a maid, can she not be angry
You know, in Gu Qianrou's heart, Princess Anran is the number one rival in love.
Aunt Pei sighed, and took Gu Qianrou's hand, "Be good, Rouer, no matter what, Mommy will fulfill your wish."
"Mother, I will marry the crown prince's cousin, right?" Gu Qianrou raised her head abruptly, her annoyed face was full of expectation and pleading.
Aunt Pei was heartbroken and nodded, "Rou'er, don't worry, your mother and I have been useless all my life, and I will never let you go my old way."
Only then did Gu Qianrou feel relieved, and greedily looked at the prince of Zhilan Yushu who was above him, her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
Unknowingly, the banquet has reached its climax, and no one wants to watch the beautiful singing and dancing. All the ladies are tense in their hearts, because the time to compete for talent is about to come.
One minute on stage, ten years of work off stage, the ladies put in so much effort behind the scenes just for the competition at the banquet.
Not to mention being able to attract the attention of the empress, even being attracted by other high-ranking wives, one can still get a good marriage, isn't it
Gu Qianxue was speechless, did the queen think her life span was too long? First, she was pulled to a higher position, sitting between the queen and the crown prince, and now the crown prince entertained her. Gu Qianxue was sure that if she was assassinated by a killer organization like the Blood Moon Building, the employer must be a certain daughter here.
No, just to survive, Gu Qianxue also felt that she should do something.
"Empress, the girl is too drunk, dizzy and depressed, and wants to go for a walk..." Gu Qianxue put her hand on her forehead as she said.
The queen put down Gu Qianxue's hand, but said to the crown prince, "Yao'er, accompany Qianxue to get some air."
"..." Gu Qianxue felt the desire to cry.
"Yes, Queen Mother." The prince's voice was always steady and gentle, clear and full of indescribable majesty.
Gu Qianxue clearly saw that the prince's brows were slightly frowned, and then flattened.
Just like that, accompanied by the maid, Gu Qianxue got up and went out through the back door, with the prince following behind.
"Wan Qing, look!" The eldest princess who had just returned noticed everything with sharp eyes, and quickly reminded Concubine Qin.
Princess Yong'an seldom attended the meeting, so she came to the palace for the first time today, and was entangled by several wives. After socializing for a while, she saw Gu Qianxue and the crown prince leaving as soon as she came back, her face turned pale.
Concubine Qin's smile remained unchanged, "Forget it, let's do whatever you want." There was more guard in her eyes.
Gu Qianxue regretted it very much. She didn't expect the queen to be so obsessed. If she knew it was so, she should have said just now that she should be courteous. The queen wouldn't send the prince to pee with her, right
However, the prince still walked beside her calmly, did not deliberately strike up a conversation, and did not show alienation. A gust of evening wind blew in, and the faint scent of ambergris was the smell of the prince's lavender.
Not far to the north along the white marble corridor outside the Qianxi Hall, there is a huge lotus pond.
There were no plants on the lotus pond. It was cold at night, and a thin layer of ice formed on the lotus pond. Under the illumination of the palace lanterns along the coast, it shone brightly.
Gu Qianxue was a bit cold, she didn't wear much at first, who would have thought that she would have to go out for a "walk" on a winter night
Peeking at the prince, he saw that he didn't know what he was thinking.
Should I go or stay
If I go back now, the time is too short, and I really don't know how to explain it perfunctorily; if I continue to walk, she doesn't know where she is going, can she just walk aimlessly like this? The problem is, she's cold!
"His Royal Highness, is it cold? Otherwise... you can go back." Gu Qianxue said.
As soon as I finished speaking, I discovered my language problem—it was cold, and I didn't go back to let the prince go back. Does that mean that the prince is not as good as a woman as a big man
Just as he was about to explain, the prince said, "The night is indeed a little cold, but..."
Suddenly, the prince's voice stopped abruptly, and his footsteps also stopped, his eyes widened, as if he had thought of something
Gu Qianxue's heart was pounding.
"Miss Gu, have you heard of penicillin?" The prince suddenly lowered his head and looked at Gu Qianxue, who was only as tall as his shoulders.
"..." I'm really afraid of something! Gu Qianxue forced herself to calm down, and then said, "I haven't heard of it, what is that? Is it a kind of poison?" She comforted herself in her heart, that the crown prince would not find out her identity, after all, her mother couldn't see her disguise before Yes, let alone the prince.
The prince smiled, "Qianxue, Qianxue." He read it like a poem.
"..." Gu Qianxue's heart twitched, "That... His Royal Highness, I'm a little cold, let's... shall we go back?"
The prince suddenly smiled, his smile was like the warm sun in the cold, brighter than the palace lantern beside him. "Follow me." As he said that, he actually headed south.
"..." If she could choose again, Gu Qianxue would never run out, but it's too late to say anything now.
Gu Qianxue followed the prince with a heart in her heart, not knowing where the prince was going.
The prince gave her the feeling that he was a very mysterious person, how mysterious
There are two kinds of mysteries, one is the mystery of not knowing one's identity and nothing; the other is that the person is standing in front of one's face, but one does not know what he is thinking or what he is going to do.
And the prince belongs to the latter.
Gu Qianxue followed the prince, and a group of maids followed behind her. The group unexpectedly entered the East Palace, Qilin Hall, and the prince's bedroom.
The serving lady greeted the prince, but was surprised to find that the prince had brought back a woman, not knowing how to address her and how to greet her.
The prince didn't give them any time to greet them, and he brought Gu Qianxue into his study.
Gu Qianxue was at a loss, and couldn't guess whether the prince guessed anything or not.
After entering the study, the prince dismissed the servants, then took out a piece of dim yellow paper from the drawer, unfolded it, and painted a portrait of a woman on it.
"This is?" Gu Qianxue noticed with sharp eyes that this woman was somewhat similar to herself.
That's right, there are only three or four points, and the rest are completely different.
Outside the Prince's study, two court ladies got together.
One of them said, "His Royal Highness seems to be very happy today, smiling all the time."
Another said, "His Royal Highness laughs every day, are you stupid?"
The first person said, "No, I always feel that today's prince is really smiling. On weekdays, it's just His Highness's usual expression."
The second person said, "I'm a little aware of what you said. Your Highness seems to be a little...excited today."
In the study, Gu Qianxue held the portrait, "This is...?"
The prince said, "Father asked me to draw a portrait of the person who contributed the penicillin formula, which I gave to my father." Then, he took another picture from the drawer, "This one is undelivered."
