Litchi spring warm Xijiang

It's really vicious and jealous of a woman. I wasted your life as a hairpin in the family, and the lintel taught you that this poisonous woman is dirty! "

Gu Zezhi didn't pay any attention, just nodded and smiled: "I think it's almost time, Mr. Meng doesn't want to get involved with a savage and jealous woman like me anymore, right? That's very good, the Gu and Meng families won't fall apart because of the emotional ups and downs of the younger generation." If we lose our friendship, you and I are both happy. I have a long way to go, so I won’t talk to Mr. Meng, so let’s say goodbye.”

After Gu Zezhi finished speaking, he turned and got into the carriage.

In the carriage, Xia Shen was hesitant to speak all the time, Gu Zezhi said with a smile: "Look at you like that, I am anxious for you. If you have anything to say, just say it."

"It's nothing, I'm just afraid that Miss is in a bad mood. If I persuade her, I'm afraid it will cause more trouble." Xia Shen replied in a low voice.

Gu Zezhi smiled indifferently: "I made you worry too much. Don't worry, I don't care about Meng Duan for a long time. Maybe I am indeed a very affectionate person, but I withdraw quickly. Now you have to worry , not me, but Wanliang."

"Miss, isn't this trip just for Miss Wanliang? With Miss here, Miss Wanliang will be safe." Xia Shen said with certainty.

"You must not be too absolute." Gu Zezhi shook his head and said, "Even if I have the ability to ascend to heaven and earth, I will have nowhere to use it when I reach the depths of the vermilion wall palace. When the time comes, I can only play by ear."

The palace walls are cold.

Gu Zezhi lowered his eyes, hiding his lingering thoughts.

It was the palace wall tiles that were frosty and the emerald quilt piercing to the bone, so the life of the eldest princess was suppressed and turned into a romantic nightmare.So Wanliang can't be allowed to enter the tiger's den again.

Chapter Eleven

Qionglin Yushu, Jinwa streamer.

Ladies and gentlemen of the palace women filed in, all of them were concubine-colored skirts set off by crimson palace sash, and the accessories were all gold-carved clusters of tinsel and brocade silk headbands.The temples are like flowing clouds, and the skin is greasy and goose fat.

The welcome etiquette of Qi State is very special. The emperors and courtiers don't care about how to welcome guests at the city gate or how to perform diplomatic relations between the two countries. They seem to be more concerned about the joy of feasting.Therefore, most of the maids in the imperial palace are good-looking, and their manners and conversations are also high-quality, in order to prepare for the needs of the feast.It is for this reason that the Qihuang Palace is also nicknamed "Emei Palace".

Gu Zezhi followed behind his father, stepping into the rich gate of Xuanjing Palace.

As soon as Gu Huairen entered the hall, he turned his head to Gu Zezhi and said indifferently: "You will go and sit with Princess Changle in a while."

Gu Zezhi nodded obediently with a three-point smile on his face.

Not long after, a rouge-colored, gilded woman with a beautiful dress, willow brows and hibiscus face, bright and flamboyant eyes walked out of the banquet that was not fully booked.She raised her chin slightly, and said to Gu Zezhi: "Why did you also come to this capital for a banquet? Didn't you agree to stay in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Gu Zezhi smiled nonchalantly, and said to Meng Zhifei: "It's been so many years, why is it so hard to hold on to a small tail? Ms. Meng, don't you always act open-mindedly?"

After hearing this, Meng Zhifei was about to refute something when she was summoned away by the Duke's wife at the table.Gu Zezhi looked at her and sighed helplessly.

In fact, Meng Zhifei and Gu Zezhi did not have any feuds. Meng Zhifei was also a kind person in his heart, and had a very good relationship with Gu Zezhi when he was young.But later, when Gu Zezhi's mother passed away, a series of changes occurred in Gu's residence. Gu Zezhi also changed his mind and became a well-rounded person—and this is exactly what Meng Zhifei can't get used to.In fact, there is another point, that is, Meng Zhifei hates the new wife of the Gu family very much. She tried to persuade Gu Zezhi not to follow Gu Huairen's arrangement to live with that poisonous woman.But Gu Zezhi chose to go to Jiangnan Road obediently, Meng Zhifei was furious when she found out, and immediately threw up her sleeves and left.From then on, if the two meet each other, Meng Zhifei will definitely ridicule her, and Gu Zezhi will turn a deaf ear to it.

Seeing that the banquet was about to start, Gu Zezhi walked towards the seat of the Changle Princess.Seeing that many famous ladies from aristocratic families gathered not far away, Gu Zezhi knew that he would inevitably have to deal with them, and felt tired for a moment, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all.

"Ah, Sister Gu is here too!" A beautiful girl in a light green dress exclaimed in surprise.

"It's a good thing to say," Gu Zezhi responded with a smile, "I was thinking of a few sisters in my heart, and my father just happened to ask me to come with me."

The woman in purple at the side raised her face full of smiles and said to Gu Zezhi: "My sister is really radiant today! Look at this silver crane head with blue beads and my sister's hibiscus jade face, I really envy Xi Shi Mao Qiang. I even dressed up carefully today, now that my sister comes, not to mention me, all the sisters here are inferior to you!"

After hearing this, Gu Zezhi knew that she was counting on the snipe and clam to fight each other, so the smile disappeared in her eyes, but the corners of her mouth were still curled up: "Sister Yuehan, in the circle we surrounded, where is there any Not pretty? Don't make fun of me again!"

"I didn't make fun of my sister," He Yuehan said indifferently, "who doesn't know, the number one talented person in our Qi country praised his sister at the garden party, 'the spring breeze is beautiful, and Luoyang flowers are envious'!"

"Vulgar and gorgeous!" A plainly dressed woman with a cold demeanor said disdainfully.

Gu Zezhi didn't have to turn his head to look, he knew it was Meng Qinglian, the third lady of Zhenguo Gongfu who was known as "a talented woman like a lotus".Miss Meng San looked down on those young masters Luo Qi in the capital, only Lu Yiyuan, a great talent from Qi State, caught her eyes.

"Isn't that right? I don't know what my father thinks. To let her dress up in such a beaded and emerald manner really loses the elegant style that Qi has always been famous for." The one who answered the question was Gu Zezhi's concubine, Gu Zelan. .

Hearing this, Gu Zezhi looked down at her cross-collared skirt with light blue pattern and white crane, then at Gu Zelan's gorgeous skirt with peach red bronzing hibiscus, and decided to remain silent.

But the woman in plain clothes didn't intend to let Gu Zezhi go easily, she continued: "I have heard about Miss Gu's name for a long time, but I saw her today, she is indeed as beautiful as a peony, but she is not as beautiful as a peony."

"That's natural." Gu Zezhi still had a slight smile on his face, and his voice was gentle, "Miss Meng San is as beautiful as a lotus, and her talent for singing Xu is famous in Jinghua. I, Gu Zezhi, can't compare to it."

"Miss Gu is really absurd." Meng Qinglian's voice was still cold and clear, "I, Meng Qinglian, don't have much talent, I just stick to the word 'clear'. I teach Qingming in Qi State, and as the daughter of an important court official, Miss Gu deserves her own freedom. Reserved is."

After Gu Zezhi heard this, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.In fact, the garden party that day was not Lu Yiyuan's intention to compose poems to show off his flair, but Gu Zelan's request.Of course, this should be Meng Qinglian's instruction first.It's a pity that Lu Yiyuan didn't pay attention to the twists and turns, he calmly composed a poem to praise Gu and Meng's two daughters, but the Meng's daughter he praised was Meng Zhifei, not Meng Qinglian.After that, Meng Qinglian would sneer when she saw Gu Zezhi. As for Meng Zhifei, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, she had intentions but no courage.

Gu Zezhi often chooses to put Meng Qinglian's many attacks on her aside, ignores her, and doesn't see her often.But recently she was always preached about women's virtues. From Gu Yangling to Meng Duan, and now Meng Qinglian, she was really annoyed, so she didn't intend to be patient any more.

"I've always accepted Ms. Meng's teachings with an open mind, but the word 'reserved'," Gu Zezhi said with a sarcasm, "I'm afraid I won't be convinced if you say it."

"Miss Gu, what do you mean by that?" Meng Qinglian frowned when she heard her say this, her eyes were cold, "My reputation, Meng Qinglian, is definitely not something you, Gu Zezhi, can criticize."

"Oh, that's it." Gu Zezhi smiled lightly, and continued her words, "Ms. Meng's heart is entrusted to Qingniao. Does this talented Lu live up to her expectations?"

Hearing this, Meng Qinglian's heart turned cold, and the cold expression on her face could no longer hold back. She glared at Gu Zezhi and said, "Is Miss Gu always happy to gossip? I hope that Miss Gu will stop talking nonsense, lest she suffer the consequences."

"Zezhi knows that he is blunt about Jia's misfortune, thank you Ms. Meng for your kind persuasion, but," the smile on Gu Zezhi's face became brighter and brighter, "I, Gu Zezhi, never say unfounded things. If you say that I am a 'slander', then Meng Miss, do you want to make this 'rumour' come true?"

Meng Qinglian turned her head abruptly, looked directly at Gu Zezhi's smiling face, and asked vigilantly, "What do you mean!"

In fact, Gu Zezhi never took this handle as a handle.When Gu Zezhi was out for a stroll, he saw Meng Qinglian carving poems on the red leaves on the bridge, letting the red leaves float to the river bank to the feet of Lu Yiyuan, who was looking for refugees who had entered Beijing, and then dragging her fragrant cheeks on the bridge, looking at the white Pingzhou.Lu Yiyuan saw the red leaves in the water, and looked at Meng Qinglian on the bridge again, his heart suddenly became clear.It's just that although Lu Yiyuan is the most talented person in the capital, he never likes those people who spend all their time playing with words and pretending to be noble and unconventional, so he turned his head back as if nothing had happened, and continued to chat with the old farmer from another country.Gu Zezhi just laughed it off that day and didn't take it to heart, but now it has played a role.

Seeing her like this, Gu Zezhi approached her with a slight smile, and whispered to her: "The red leaves convey love, it's really elegant. Ms. Meng is well-read and knowledgeable, so she should understand what is meant by 'a man who knows current affairs is a hero'. I, Gu Zezhi, never like to criticize , and I hope you don't ask for more trouble. I'm really, really tired of it."

Meng Qinglian was stunned for a moment.Gu Zezhi also ignored her, turned around and went to look for the eldest princess.

At this time, in the warm pavilion of the side hall, a group of maiko musicians from Jiangnan Road were arranging their clothes.

Zheng Wodan had already tidied up, so he sat next to the low table and ate
