The spring breeze blowing in front of you is gentle and warm, and the layers of distant mountains meet the sky, which can be seen far away at a glance.

Gu Junci sat in the pavilion and leaned against the pillars, staring straight at the back of Xiao Yuan who was looking at the distant mountains with his eyes. The spring breeze swayed his hair and skirt, which was very eye-catching.

Finally, Gu Junci couldn't bear it anymore, and opened his lips and said: "I said, Second Young Master Xiao, don't you have something to say to me? I'm hungry, if I don't think about it, can I come to you after dinner?" "

Xiao Yuan lowered his head slightly, as if thinking, then turned around and looked at Gu Junci quietly, with a serious expression: "Brother Gu, I think Cousin Funian told you about the banquet invitation for the Shangsi Festival."

Gu Junci was stunned for a moment, and nodded immediately: "It is said that in the Tianyi Pavilion on the back mountain of Beiyuan, there will be a sacrificial banquet after the ritual bath. If the princess has nothing to do, let me go too."

Xiao Yuan looked at him thoughtfully, and then said after a while: "To be honest, when cousin Fu Nian asked, I answered truthfully that Mr. Gu had a wound on his left shoulder, or an arrow wound, so cousin Fu Nian set up the Shangsi Festival. feast."

Gu Junci stared into Xiao Yuan's eyes, put down his legs on the stool, and sat upright: "What do you mean?"

Xiao Yuan said: "Cousin Fu Nian has already recognized you, you are the man in black who broke into Wang's mansion that night, I want to make sure, and..."

Xiao Yuan hesitated to speak, Gu Junci could naturally guess what Wang Funian was going to do.

He, Gu Junci, is just a Jinwu guard with no background. He broke into the Wang family's mansion and not only overheard the conversation between Wang's father and son, but even read some correspondence in the secret room. It is Wang's enemy.

The Langya Wang family has a profound background and is a relative of the emperor. It must be easy for them to deal with him, but because he is a Jinwu guard, they only need a definite proof.

As long as Wang Funian can confirm Gu Junci's shoulder injury, he can find a reason for the princess to agree to deal with Gu Junci.

Gu Junci's expression was solemn, he looked at Xiao Yuan, and asked tentatively: "Why did you tell me?"

Xiao Yuan said: "Don't hide the truth from my brother and cousin, it's for loyalty, and don't hide it from the savior, it's for righteousness, as for what will happen to me after I tell you, I will face it myself, but Brother Gu, the prime minister has a lot of thoughts, Be careful in everything."

Looking at Xiao Yuan's solemn appearance, Gu Junci felt that the string in his heart was being plucked again, like a stone thrown into water, stirring up layers of waves, he said:

"I, I'm not the prime minister's person. I didn't go to the mansion to find out any secrets. I am... I have my own difficulties. In short, I have no malicious intentions."

Looking at Gu Junci, Xiao Yuan's eyes gradually softened, and the corners of his lips slightly raised: "I believe in you."

Gu Junci was slightly stunned, only to feel that his limbs began to tremble.

Xiao Yuan continued: "For some reason, I believe everything you say. Recently, I always feel that Mr. Gu is very familiar, like an old friend."

like an old friend...

Gu Junci also felt this way, but he grew up in Xuanji Kingdom since he was a child and has never been here. If his brother hadn't used the Xuanji map to trick him and let him fall into this time and space, he might not have known such a magical thing in the world. , there will be such a place.

But precisely because of this, the inexplicable familiarity between him and Xiao Yuan shocked him, but he had no way of knowing it.

Gu Junci narrowed his eyes to avoid Xiao Yuan's, and hurriedly said: "Well, thank you, Second Young Master Xiao, for your trust."

Xiao Yuan nodded slightly: "I always call you Brother Gu, why do you still call you so unfamiliar."

Gu Junci was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then I'll climb up, Brother Xiao."

Xiao Yuan nodded in response, but saw Xie Suiyun lifted his clothes and put on the steps with a stern face, came to the pavilion, looked directly at Xiao Yuan, and then turned his eyes on Gu Junci, with a very bad tone:

"Gu Junci, as the princess' Jinwu guard, the princess is now staying in Beiyuan. You don't care about the princess's safety, but you talk to ordinary people here, it is really dereliction of duty."

"I'll go now," Gu Junci got up and adjusted his clothes, but stopped in front of the steps, looked sideways at Xie Suiyun, moved to his side, and said softly: "However, Mr. Xie always thinks that I It delayed you being alone with the princess, why did you give me this opportunity today."

Xie Suiyun's face turned gloomy, and he turned away from looking at him: "I just can't stand your dereliction of duty."

Gu Junci raised his lips and smiled, turned around and saluted Xiao Yuan: "Brother Xiao, this princess seems to be very different to you, why don't you go and see the princess too."

Xiao Yuan was slightly stunned, and just about to speak, Xie Suiyun sneered, looked straight at Xiao Yuan and said:

"It is said that this Second Young Master Xiao has a marriage contract, and his fiancée is a girl from the Pei family in Hedong. It seems that Second Young Master Xiao is also a person who only cares about profit."

Gu Junci looked surprised when he heard the words, and couldn't help but look at Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Yuan's expression remained unchanged, he raised his eyes to look directly at Xie Suiyun, bowed his head and said: "Mr. Pay attention."

Xie Suiyun snorted coldly: "Don't be complacent, they think you are a role model for all the sons of your family, but I don't think there is still a score between us."

Xiao Yuan's face is like a crown of jade, facing Xie Suiyun's provocation at this moment, he is even more calm and breezy, the indifference in his eyes makes Xie Suiyun's face gloomy to the extreme, he raised his hand in a salute chicly:

"I will wait for Mr. Xie to settle the accounts."

Xiao Yuan stepped down from the gazebo, bowed his head with Gu Junci, then left Wangyue Pavilion and returned to the courtyard where he lived.

Xie Suiyun looked directly at the person in front of him, and said in a very bad tone: "Could it be that Xiao Yuan is more important than the princess in your eyes?"

Gu Junci looked at Xie Suiyun's vicious look, but he ignored it, and walked straight towards the courtyard where the princess stayed in Beiyuan.

But as soon as he arrived in the courtyard, he saw the girl from the Xiao family, Xiao Shunhua, coming out of the princess room.

Her black hair was like ink, and the beaded flowers dotted in her hair made her more dignified and beautiful. Seeing Gu Junci from a distance, she was blessed. Just as she was about to walk towards her own room, she was called by Gu Junci Living.

Gu Junci coughed lightly and approached, looking at Shunhua, he didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Xiao Shunhua said with a gentle smile, and looked at Gu Junci with shining eyes and gave another blessing: "Before I heard that my benefactor saved my father and brother at Zhishugang, and brother Yuan got my benefactor to help me yesterday. This kindness should be from my Xiao family." Thank you all."

Gu Junci was put on such a big hat before he even opened his mouth, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he just said: "What is Miss Xiao saying, it's just a little effort."

Xiao Shunhua said: "Grandfather, what do you want to say?"

Gu Junci scratched his head in embarrassment, hesitated for a moment before nodding his head, "Well, it's not a big deal, I just want to ask, is this Second Young Master Xiao really engaged to a girl from Hedong Pei's family?"

Xiao Shunhua went in without knowing it, but still responded: "But I have a marriage contract, it's just..."

"So it's true." Gu Junci murmured, and unconsciously glanced at the wing where the princess lived.

He originally thought that the princess liked Xiao Yuan, and that Xiao Yuan would become the emperor's son-in-law in the future, so he used saving Xiao Yuan as an excuse to get close to Xie Suiyun, hoping to get the treasure hidden by Xie's sect in the future Xuanji map.

Now it seems that he may have to make another plan for the Xuanji map of the Xie family, but he can make a plan for the Xuanji map of the Lanling Xiao family.

Xiao Shunhua looked at Gu Junci's worried eyes, and instantly understood, and couldn't help comforting him: "It turns out that your benefactor is worried about the princess."

Gu Junci was stunned: "What?"

Xiao Shunhua looked at the princess's room and said with a smile: "Don't worry, benefactor, the princess will not be harmed. Although brother Yuan has a marriage contract, the girl who has a marriage contract with him has already..."

Gu Junci looked directly at her: "What happened?"

Xiao Shunhua sighed, her expression became more sad, she nodded her head and smiled wryly, and said: "When my father was an official in Chang'an, he had a good relationship with the uncle of the Pei family, so even the names of me and that girl came from One place, therefore, father and Uncle Pei made an appointment for Brother Yuan. The original appointment was to get married next year. Unexpectedly, Miss Pei suffered from a serious illness and passed away last year. Unfortunately, she is a woman with outstanding talents. If she is here, she will naturally come to listen to the study."

Gu Junci listened to Xiao Shunhua whispering about Xiao Yuan's fiancée's life experience, and an inexplicable sadness rose from his heart unconsciously, his throat was a little tight, and he had to calm down before saying:

"I see."

Xiao Shunhua nodded: "Because we have been together since we were young, the relationship is considered good, but... so, although he has a marriage contract, it is not the same as if he has no marriage contract now. As long as the princess doesn't mind, I think Brother Yuan and him will be married." Shouldn't refuse."

Gu Junci responded, nodded with a smile and said, "I understand, thank you Miss Xiao."

Xiao Shunhua nodded and smiled, and Gu Junci blessed Fu Fu again, then turned and went back to his wing.

Gu Junci looked at the princess's room with his hips akimbo, and after thinking about the matter in his mind, he went up and stood in front of the door and said, "I want to see the princess."

Hearing it was Gu Junci's voice, the princess who was already dismantling the hairpin came out immediately, but seeing that Gu Junci was alone in front of the door, the smile on her face immediately faded:

"Why are you alone? Don't worry, there will be no danger here. Go and rest."

Gu Junci took a panoramic view of the princess's hopeful and disappointed gaze, and he naturally understood who the princess really wanted to see, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "Princess, that humble job has really left."

The princess ignored it, so Gu Junci saluted and just turned around when he heard the voice behind him: "Stop."

Gu Junci nodded and smiled, then turned to look at her.

The princess seemed to be a little nervous, she pulled the jewelry around her waist, and asked after a long time: "Cousin Yuan asked you to go out alone, what do you mean?"

Gu Junci recalled the conversation with Xiao Yuan in Wangyue Pavilion before, and then faltered and said: "Oh, it's nothing, I just talked about the sacrifice and banquet in Tianyi Pavilion on the Shangsi Festival."

The princess tentatively asked, "That's all? Did he ask, Ben... Bengong?"

Gu Junci was slightly stunned, but looking at the princess' eyes full of expectations, his heart softened for a moment, thinking that Xiao Shunhua had said that his fiancée was gone, so he felt that it should be no big deal, and said:

"Oh, I said it, he said let me protect the princess well."

Hearing this, the princess's expected eyes suddenly became very shy, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she immediately raised her lips and smiled: "Then, then you must not be lazy, and you must protect this Palace."

Gu Junci heaved a sigh of relief, and then clasped his fists in a salute: "Here."
