Consort he can't

Everyone in the princess mansion thought that when Gu Chen was late and sat in line to eat melons, he was actually still standing at the gate of Sitianjian.

Hungry, mentally weak, no matter how you look at it, you look like a beggar wandering around the streets begging.

It can be seen that the joys and sorrows of human beings are not interlinked.

He knocked on the door for a quarter of an hour, but no one opened it for him.

It's remote here, if it wasn't for the blue sky and daylight, he would feel that he was hit by a ghost.

It's also fortunate that there are no people here, so no one saw him doing the same operation as Tiao Dashener.

Or you have to report to the Yamen and arrest him.

Ugh--

Life is not easy, knock on the door online.

Gu Chen leaned against the door, touched his stomach, and sighed. He didn't know how many breaths he had today. He thought to himself that for the last time, if he didn't open the door, he would give up.

"Squeak-"

The heavy door rang first, and before he could touch the door with his hand, the door opened by itself.

It's just that the door was not opened very kindly, it was only opened a crack, not to mention the body, it was difficult to enter even an arm.

Gu Chen looked up.

I saw Uncle Fu propping up the door with one hand behind, and the whole person stood neatly in the threshold, his slightly fat figure did not come out at all, and a small head followed behind him.

Gu Chen ignored the heads poking left and right behind, and then stretched out his hand to push the door: "Hey, Uncle Fu, you can be considered to have opened the door—"

"..."

He didn't say the words behind, because he felt that the hand behind the door was also exerting force.

At first, Gu Chen thought it was a half-scholar joking with him behind the door, so he pushed again, but it didn't work.

Gu Chen: "..."

He pushed again, but still nothing.

Uncle Fu blocked the door, showing no intention of getting out of the way. The half-scholar behind him looked out.

Gu Chen: "...Scholar?"

The half-scholar hides behind Uncle Fu like a hide-and-seek.

Gu Chen: "???"

He looked at Uncle Fu in a daze: "Uncle Fu, who is this?"

Uncle Fu put on a business-like appearance: "Young Master Gu, at the request of the National Teacher, I have come here to tell you that you don't have to come to the Sitian Supervisor in the future. The National Teacher has already reported to His Majesty to take back the position of the Sitian Supervisor."

"what?"

Uncle Fu's words were like a huge rolling stone, rolling into Gu Chen's unprepared little heart.

It made him dizzy.

Gu Chen tried to fight for it: "No, Uncle Fu, is it because I'm late today? I really have something to do today, I can—"

"My lord thinks too much, not because of what happened today," Uncle Fu first spoke to give him a reassurance, and then said: "It's the meaning of the national teacher."

"National teacher... my lord?"

"Si Tianjian doesn't participate in secular affairs, doesn't interact with people, and doesn't accept people from the outside world. This is the result of the divination and calculation by the national teacher. This is God's will."

Gu Chen: "..."

Gu Chen was even more confused.

Wasn't it the master of the State Teacher who agreed for him to come to the Sitianjian?

Why do you still have a change of mind? It will change after a while?

Seeing that he was really confused, Uncle Fu glanced at him, and finally said: "Young Master Gu, please go back, Sitianjian is a small temple, and it cannot accommodate a big Buddha like you."

Gu Chen was about to be crushed by this set of rhetoric, and he had already forgotten his bold words and ambitions just now: "Uncle Fu, I am not a big Buddha, Uncle Fu, look at me, look at me, I am just a Unemployed vagrants, who live on their salary!"

He really didn't want to go back to the princess mansion to eat free food. They exchanged labor for food, but he exchanged his life!

Uncle Fu: "..."

Uncle Fu didn't say anything this time, watching him shake his head, and then closed the door with lightning speed.

It can't be seen at all that it is the speed that a middle-aged man should have.

Gu Chen: "..."

10

It should be because I felt that the explanation was clear, and no matter how much Gu Chen "calls and calls", no one will come out.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Gu Chen raised his hand to cover his eyes and looked at the sun, then sighed.

Forget it, they are all civilized people, so they can't force their way in, and it would be bad if they force their way in and get on someone's blacklist.

Let's take a look again tomorrow, maybe there is still room for change.

11

Gu Chen had been persuading himself all the way, and when he returned to the princess mansion, he already felt that there was nothing to be depressed about being resigned.

He can still help Wenren, and at worst he can set up a stall on the road to buy small wontons, anyway, he is good at wrapping small wontons.

Relying on self-brainwashing, when he walked into his small courtyard from the door, Gu Chen completely ignored his resignation.

12

Gu Chen looked around, but Wenren was not there.

Li Jingzhao didn't know what work was arranged for him.

These days, he could see that everyone was busy like a dog, but he was still very happy. He was happy every day, and there was no sign of being coerced to do things.

This made him suspect that Wenren was brainwashed.

Gu Chen turned around and came to a conclusion: It seems that he has to eat by himself today.

13

It just so happened that he was aroused by the wontons.

14

Just when he was thinking about whether he should steal some wontons by himself today, Sixi came.

Seeing him there, Sixi immediately laughed, "Yo, it just so happens that the son-in-law is here~"

Gu Chen nodded with a smile on his face, but actually rolled his eyes silently in his heart: I'm afraid you and your highness know better than I myself whether I am in the princess mansion, why are you pretending to be a wolf with a big tail at this time...

Sixi's superficial skills have always been very good, and she said cheerfully: "Since the son-in-law is here, let's go with the servant—"

Gu Chen was instantly alert: "Why?"

Maybe Li Jingzhao is chasing after him for losing the errand he arranged so hard.

"Hey, look at what you said," Sixi took it for granted, "It must be Her Royal Highness who invited you to have lunch together—"

Gu Chen: "..."

15

If possible, he would really like to say a word: no!

But if there is no if, he is the only one in the entire princess mansion who is free.

16

In just a few steps, Gu Chen tried his best to think of all the words, thinking that he was fully prepared, but it turned out that Li Jingzhao would only catch him by surprise.

17

"Here we come, are you hungry? I have specially prepared a table of good food for you. Come and taste it—"

Li Jingzhao smiled when he saw Gu Chen walking in, the table was full of dishes, all delicious in color and fragrance.

Gu Chen was a little dazed: This is... you really asked yourself to come to eat?

Seeing that Gu Chen didn't move, Li Jingzhao urged: "Sit down quickly, just sit down..."

This time he didn't dare to hesitate, he lifted his foot and walked inside.

When he saw the seat, Gu Chen was startled.

18

Also sit casually.

Is there an option? ! !

The chairs in a circle were completely removed, not even the dresser seat was left, only a separate chair beside Li Jingzhao.

The short one looks like it came from the dressing table.

Gu Chen: "..."

Little harm, but highly insulting.

19

Gu Chen still sat beside Li Jingzhao.

The chair was a little shorter than Li Jingzhao's, sitting there one tall and one short, it was very weird.

Li Jingzhao didn't speak, he seemed to concentrate on eating, Gu Chen didn't dare to speak to Li Jingzhao's appearance.

Gu Chen comforted himself in his heart: The heavens will send great responsibilities to the people, so they must first work hard...

20

Sixi is waiting outside.

For a moment, there were only the sound of two people chewing food in the room.

Occasionally, two people got the same dish, but Li Jingzhao didn't say anything, and continued to pick up and eat the food. The two of them didn't speak during the whole process, each ate his own food, and the atmosphere was actually very harmonious.

Just outrageous!

This is quite different from the scene when Wenren eats.

It's just that the atmosphere is too harmonious, Gu Chen's brain twitched, and four words suddenly popped out in his heart: the years are quiet and peaceful.

The author says:

Li Jingzhao: You have to eat before everything, Huaiyu and I can't go hungry!

Gu Chen: You can have this idea!
