Chapter 1289

"What are you laughing at?"

Gu Jiuci asked doubtfully.

"Xiao Jiu'er, you care about me."

The blush that Gu Jiuci had finally suppressed quickly spread to his cheeks again.

She suddenly didn't know what to say, so she hurriedly stuffed the jujube cake into Huo Mingche's mouth without any explanation.

"Stop talking."

If the soldiers in the army saw this scene, their eyes would probably pop out of their frames again. The enemy soldiers in Makino didn't even have the guts to say a bad word about the Crown Prince, but this little girl from the Gu family actually had the guts to speak directly to the Crown Prince. Eat!

What's even worse is that our prince, whom even the King of Hell dare not offend, is not angry at all, but has a smile in his eyes?

The advent of what love is?Direct teaching makes people stupid and silly.

From then on, Gu Jiuci's life in Chang'an City became increasingly difficult.

Not long after, news suddenly came from the palace that Concubine Xu was suddenly pregnant with a dragon seed. The eunuchs and maids also rumored that on the day when the imperial doctor diagnosed her pulse, the sky was filled with red clouds and auspiciousness.Emperor Chu Longyan was very happy, and he asked Concubine Xu even more and obeyed her words.

A few days later, the Emperor of Chu held a birthday banquet for his concubine, and all civil and military officials came with their families to celebrate her birthday.Gu Jiuci frowned secretly as he took the list of items sent by the Ministry of Etiquette.

"This pomp and scale can't even be compared to the Queen's birthday. How do you take the ancestral rules into consideration!"

Next to Gu Jiuci, an upright official said angrily.

"Brother Zhaoyi, be careful what you say!"

Gu Jiuci immediately glared at the upright official. The official looked unconvinced, but he still held back.

"Okay, this matter will be handled according to the list of the Ministry of Etiquette. You can go and enter the account."

If it weren't for the current peace in the world and the fact that her father had scraped a lot of money from the nobles, she really wouldn't have been able to put together such a grand ceremony for Concubine Xu.

Aren't you pregnant?Why is there suddenly another birthday party?

Gu Jiuci frowned slightly, feeling that things were not that simple.

Soon, Concubine Xu's birthday banquet arrived.

On the high platform, the emperor, the queen and Concubine Xu were sitting in the middle. On both sides were first-rank officials and relatives of the emperor.

Gu Jiuci and other civil and military officials sat under the high platform. Because his father resigned and was at home, he was not even qualified to attend this banquet.She sat in silence, and no one even talked to her.

The folk customs in Xiliang are open, and women can also sit alone or sit together with the men.The daughters of aristocratic families who had admired Gu Jiuci in the past were all restrained in their seats at this moment, and they could only look at her with affectionate glances.

Gu Jiuci sat upright and looked forward. At this time, she had better not involve their confidante.

But there was one gaze that was so hot that it was difficult for her to ignore it.

On the high platform, no matter how drunken or drunken they are, how many people dance in the willow tower and sing to the wind under the peach blossom fan.Huo Mingche's eyes always fell on Gu Jiuci.

Seeing her desolate look, he couldn't sit still for the first time.

"Sir!"

Suddenly, Xu Yun'er called Huo Mingche softly, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Gu Jiuci immediately straightened his back and looked at the situation on the high platform with concern.

"Your Majesty's Concubine."

Huo Mingche calmly saluted Xu Yun'er with cupped fists, with thorough etiquette and a calm expression.

Xu Yun'er curled her lips and smiled, and that smile fell in Gu Jiuci's eyes, which really made people panic...
