Qingchen glanced at Lu Wu and smiled awkwardly: "Where is it..."

Lu Wu knew that she was not suitable to stay here in her current state. She said in a hoarse voice: "If Manager Cui comes to see me for something, I will go over there first."

After saying this, he turned to Gu Xunzhi and said, "My slave, please leave."

Without waiting for his reply, he hurriedly turned around and trotted away to the other side.

After Lu Wu left, Qingchen and Gu Xunzhi were left alone.

The two had not met many times before they were suddenly engaged.

Qingchen stood aside and had nothing to say to him.

After all, the matter of Green Mist was the romantic debt he incurred...

It doesn't seem right to say it's his romantic debt.

In other words, it's close to Concubine Li's palace.

It's normal for him to come here for a walk after giving lessons to Little Eleven.

He chatted a little more about flowers with other palace ladies. The palace ladies admired him, but he didn’t seem to know it himself...

Gu Xunzhi's eyes were locked on her pink and tender face. He didn't know what she was struggling with with her face downcast, and her beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned.

He was much taller than her, and he could clearly see the leaves on her head.

Soon after, the person in front of me will become his wife...

Thinking of this, he reached out and took away the leaves from her head.

Such a sudden touch made Qingchen take a few steps back.

The pink face was full of alertness, "What are you doing?"

Seeing her reaction, Gu Xunzhi's warm eyes were filled with a smile, and then he showed her the leaves in his hand, "There are leaves on the princess's hair, Wei Chen just took the leaves off, without any other intention. "

In this way, it seems that she overreacted.

Seeing this, Qingchen lowered her face towards him and said, "Although we have made an engagement, we are not married yet, so it is not appropriate to be alone like this. I am leaving!"

After that, she turned around and started to walk back.

The man behind him followed, "Wei Chen, please send the princess off."

"No need..." Qingchen turned around and glanced at him, then thought of a question.

She turned back to look at him helplessly, and her voice softened, "Mr. Gu."

"Huh?" Gu Xunzhi stared at her calmly.

"I have something to tell you."

"Princess, please speak."

"You haven't met me a few times..." Where should I start? Qingchen took a breath and saw that there was no one around. Just when she asked this question, she followed her heart and said: "I was granted marriage by my father, and I know that you can't resist. So we two After you get married, you don't have to worry about me. You don't need to fulfill any responsibilities as a husband, and I don't need to fulfill any responsibilities as a wife. If you have love in your heart, you can welcome your love into your house. I have no objection at all. , if your beloved woman gives you an heir, she can still be raised by your beloved woman's side. You don't need to be raised by me, and she can be called your legitimate son..."

The more Gu Xunzhi listened, the more something was wrong.

The smile in his eyes faded away, replaced by indifference.

"According to what the princess said, you and Wei Chen are going to be a couple in name only, right?"

In name only...

"Yes, that's it." As expected, he is a good learner and his ability to understand is particularly strong.

"Then why did the princess agree to the emperor's marriage proposal again?"

It is said that the emperor loves the ninth princess. If the emperor wants to grant him a marriage with the ninth princess.

If the Ninth Princess doesn't like him, she can refuse.

Instead of accepting this marriage, he told himself that he wanted to be a couple in name only.

Gu Xunzhi looked at the pink face of the person in front of him, his eyes darkened slightly.

"They all said you are the most suitable candidate." Qingchen told the truth.

"In this case, I have to thank the princess and the emperor for their love." Gu Xunzhi's gentle voice had a hint of ridicule.

Qingchen heard it, and there was a hint of uneasiness on his little face, "Mr. Gu is dissatisfied?"

"Wei Chen dare not."

"I'll go back and ask my father to raise your official position?" This should be better, right?

Gu Xunzhi's hands under his long sleeves were slightly clenched, but his face was still calm, "Wei Chen thanked the princess for her kindness, but no need."

"Why?" Qingchen was puzzled. Can people in the court still dislike someone with a high official position?

Gu Xunzhi stared at her seriously, "Princess, Wei Chen's clan has family rules."

"What house rules?"

"The men of the Gu family have always been allowed to marry only one official wife, and they are not allowed to take concubines. The men of the Gu family are looking for a couple for life. So please rest assured, princess, I have no favorite woman, and I will not take any concubines after marrying the princess. concubine."

"..." Qingchen's two little hands were tightly intertwined.

Listening to Gu Xunzhi's words, it feels like he has hit a nail this time?

This nail is still very hard!

Taking a deep breath, Qingchen knew that continuing to chat with him would not end well.

She could clearly feel the low air pressure emanating from his body.

It seemed that he was in a bad mood after hearing what he said.

So she could only purse her lips and remain silent for a long time before saying: "I will go back first."

After saying this, she left the small garden without looking back.

Gu Xunzhi looked at her leaving figure and sighed inexplicably in his heart.

Turn around and walk in the opposite direction.

……

This scene fell in Zhong Shui's eyes.

He touched his nose, secretly sent Qingchen to Mingyue Palace, and then left the palace and returned to Prince Zhai's Mansion.

As soon as Zhong Shui arrived at Prince Zhai's mansion, he went directly to the study and reported everything he saw today to his master.

When Yue Qinghe heard this, his handsome face looked thoughtful.

Seeing this, Zhong Shui said cautiously: "Your Highness, if you put it this way, the future prince-in-law chosen by the princess is really good..."

Yue Qinghe shot him a cold look.

Zhong Shui immediately changed his words and said: "That's right. His fragile little body can't protect the Ninth Princess well at all. If the Ninth Princess meets the assassin, I don't know whether he should protect the Ninth Princess or let the Ninth Princess protect him. Okay. What good is a civil servant..."

Yue Qinghe gathered her thoughts, carefully recalled what Zhong Shui had said to her, and interrupted his long talk, "You mean, Gu Xunzhi is very close to the little palace maid in the garden?"

He remembered that the palace maid was Qingchen's friend who pretended to be a palace maid.

"Yes." Zhong Shui nodded.

"Aoki." He called out of the study.

Aoki immediately pushed open the door and entered, "My subordinate is here."

Yue Qinghe pulled off the gold palace card from his waist and handed it to Qingmu, "Take this palace card and go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to do something."

"Yes." Aoki took the palace card and listened carefully to his master's orders.

Then after the master finished speaking, he put away the palace cards and exited the study.

When Zhong Shui heard this, his mind was filled with questions.

Yue Qinghe saw him still in the study and gave him a cold look before he spoke.

Zhong Shui immediately understood, "I will immediately roll into the palace to protect the Ninth Princess."

As soon as he finished speaking, he ran out of the study room as fast as he could.

Yue Qinghe snorted and shook his head. I really don't know how the two became good brothers when they were in the secret guard.

One is a talkative and the other cherishes words like gold.
