Reborn imperial concubine
Chapter 43
Two maids pushed the door and led the man into the room, and it was the servant of the Second Highness's mansion who came.
When they entered the door, the servant still put on a little imposing manner, after all, their master is the current King Xuan, and he was ordered to reward a girl from the little Viscount's mansion, so that she would have a good eye and a sense of humor.
But as soon as he entered the door, as soon as the servant raised his chin, he caught a glimpse of the little girl who came up, and a familiar figure stood upright behind him——
Ninth Highness? !
The servant trembled, and withdrew his haughty attitude, and immediately changed back to the usual appearance of bowing his head in front of the master, and said with a smile: "My servant greets His Highness Ninth, King Xuan sent a younger one to say hello to Miss Gu! Your Highness said that I was in a hurry today, so I don't care about you." I have no preparations, so I gave this small gift to the girl as a token of my heart."
After finishing speaking, the servant held up the small box wrapped in brocade in his hand, and was about to wait for Gu Sheng to kneel down to reward him, when he saw His Highness Ninth Prince behind her stepping forward, and unceremoniously took her The brocade box in hand...
"What did Second Sister give you?" His Highness Ninth Prince opened the brocade box with a "click" and unwrapped the meeting gift for Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng who was about to kneel down to receive the reward: "..."
The servant smiled flatteringly when he saw this, and explained: "Returning to His Royal Highness, it is a jade bracelet. As early as today, when Miss Gu's award ended, King Xuan sent someone back to the mansion to get this exquisite jade bracelet. This is last year's Myanmar special..."
"Okay, step back." His Highness Jiu hurriedly interrupted the servant's bragging without raising his eyes.
Gu Sheng's heart was already running wild at this moment, and Jiang Han must have been worried that presenting the gift in person would cause her to shyly refuse, so he specially rewarded her after parting, as a reassurance for Gu Sheng, to show that the Second Highness Satisfactory attitude after initial conversation.
After the two maids sent the guests out, Gu Sheng stuck to His Highness Ninth Highness with a happy face, and said coquettishly: "Your Highness! Show me quickly!"
His Highness the Ninth Prince entrusted the box to her, Gu Sheng bit his lower lip excitedly, narrowed his eyes with a smile, and took the box with trembling hands.
He didn't pay any attention to the Ninth Highness in front of him, and a trace of displeasure and doubt appeared in his shallow pupils.
Gu Sheng held the brocade box and walked to the candlestick. Facing the light, he carefully lifted the jade bracelet in the box. He saw that the bracelet was transparent and bright. Compared with ordinary jade bracelets, the color was much lighter. You can vaguely see the cloud-like texture inside, which adds a sense of immortality to the jade bracelet.
Gu Sheng played with the bracelet in his hand, grinning and laughing silly all the time, completely treating His Highness Ninth Prince who was hanging aside as air.
"You like it very much?"
Jiang Chenyue held her chin and tilted her head slightly, squinting her eyes, her tone was not kind.
Gu Sheng snapped back to his senses, quickly grabbed the bracelet and stood up, respectfully replied: "I like it! Your Highness! I was so happy just now, I neglected you. Do you want some refreshments, Your Highness?"
"Hmph." His Highness Jiu raised his chin, looked at her through his nostrils, and only gave her an expression of "it's late, I'm lonely and angry", turned around and walked out the door arrogantly.
Gu Sheng: "..." God was so angry after a while!Be careful!
Gu Sheng felt a little guilty for a moment, but was soon relieved by the joy of the jade bracelet in his hand.
What are you afraid of!Anyway, to participate in the Drum Music Awards, you still have to wait for the conferment, so you don't have to go to the school to see His Highness Jiu's face for three to five days, and you don't have to worry about the little scum playing tricks on her!
Gu Sheng kissed the jade bracelet in his hand with a happy face, and carefully put the bracelet on his wrist.
Because she is still young now, with slender wrists and hands, the bracelet almost slipped out when she lowered her hand, Gu Sheng wanted to take it off and put it away first, but she was reluctant to take it off.
She always felt that wearing the things Jiang Han gave her was like taking a reassurance.
After thinking about it, she decided to be more careful, and she had to wear the bracelet even if she was bothered!
Early in the morning of the second day, as soon as the sun dyed the window screens yellow, Gu Sheng stretched his waist, and rubbed his cheeks against the bracelet on his wrist with a happy face.
Even though it was covered all night, once the bracelet passed through the air, there was still a slight chill in an instant. You can tell it is a high-quality jade at the first touch.
Gu Sheng happily called the girl into the room to wash up, dressed neatly, and was about to invite Ye Qiao to have breakfast together, when a loud and clear shout came from outside: "His Royal Highness has a reward—"
Gu Sheng was shocked, and the remaining confusion was diluted.
This voice, as soon as she heard it was the signboard of the chief steward from the palace, she hurriedly pointed to the door and said, "Quick! Please come in!"
The girl who was making the bed scrambled out of bed, and the two of them ran out of the bedroom and lifted the curtain, and went to the living room to open the door.
Gu Sheng sorted out his demeanor a little, and walked out of the bedroom respectfully.
After thanking the reward, he stuffed a bulging purse to the servant from the palace.
After seeing off the waiter, Gu Sheng held the brocade box and walked to the tea table to sit down, wondering——
Another bracelet?
His Royal Highness actually rewarded her with an excellent Tianhuangshi bracelet!
This yellow stone is a hundred times more valuable than the best emerald...
What is His Highness Ninth Competing about?
Gu Sheng held the valuable Tianhuangshi bracelet in his hand in a daze, and really couldn't think of a clue.
After reading with him for so many years, His Highness the Ninth Prince rarely gave Gu Sheng a reward, but once he made a move, it was a thunderous, one-hit sure-to-kill frightening hand.
But such a precious and strange thing, it is very dangerous for Gu Sheng to even keep it, let alone wear it.
It's okay if you can't wear it, what Gu Sheng is more worried about is why His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince suddenly rewarded her with the bracelet?
Although when she was young, His Highness the Ninth Prince rewarded her with a moth after being "furious", but as she grew older, this little guy has gradually learned how to behave in the world, and now rewarding servants is no longer for the purpose of punishment. The reward is the real reward.
But Gu Sheng, who neglected His Highness the Ninth Prince yesterday, has any merit to be rewarded?
Gu Sheng felt that it was becoming more and more difficult for her to figure out the way of thinking of gifted children, so she simply stopped thinking about it and put the Tianhuangshi bracelet away with peace of mind.
The next whole day was spent with Ye Qiao.
Gu Sheng earnestly persuaded her to stay in the palace and become a musician. When she has enough qualifications, she might be able to work as a teacher in the Imperial College, which is also a promising path.
However, Mrs. Ye insisted on settling the family affairs first. Of course, she also knew that her father and elder brother were bottomless pits, but she still wanted to take advantage of her current glamorous status to go back and try to bring back her old mother. She must not abandon her and her father and brother. suffer.
Gu Sheng wanted to persuade her again, but when she put herself in her shoes, she couldn't bear to leave Yan Shi alone, so she didn't say any more.
Two days later, Gu Sheng went to the Prince Xuan's Mansion for an appointment, and Jiang Han personally waited in the front yard early on.
When Gu Sheng just stepped into the door, Jiang Han greeted him with a smile on his face, and said with a smile, "Miss Gu is here."
Gu Sheng hurriedly said, "Your Highness has been waiting for a long time."
Jiang Han lowered his head, and said tenderly in his eyes: "It seems that I have been waiting for a long time."
Gu Sheng was startled when he heard the words, with a look of shame on his face.
He then heard Jiang Han continue to laugh and say, "But now when I see the girl, it seems like the waiting just now is just the moment when a butterfly flutters its wings."
Gu Sheng pursed his lips, lowered his head with a blushing face, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, this guy seems to be sweeter than his previous life.
With that said, Jiang Han made a gesture of invitation, and Shi Shiran led Gu Sheng into the back garden.
When Gu Sheng came to the long-lost Prince Xuan's Mansion, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.
The surrounding pavilions, towers and pavilions, plants and trees reminded her of all kinds of past lives, and she couldn't help sighing from time to time, looking at a few landscapes that were slightly different from her previous life, and recalling why these changes were made in those years.
Jiang Han was a little surprised by her performance. It is rare for a little girl from an ordinary family to react like this when seeing this scene.
Gu Sheng can no longer remember the innocent appearance of him who had never seen the world and was surprised when he first entered the palace.
Today, she will not show an excited and naive look for exotic flowers and plants, nor will she make a fuss about strange stones and weird buildings. Along the way, she smiles quietly and calmly, and only talks to Jiang Han calmly.
Gu Sheng followed Jiang Han and walked all the way to the lotus pond, where he sat on a stone chair by the lake. Three or five maids brought freshly brewed tea and desserts, put them on the stone table in small steps, and stepped aside.
"Miss Gu is much more mature than girls her age."
This is probably Jiang Han's true evaluation of her performance just now.
Gu Sheng was startled when he heard the words, and couldn't help worrying about his performance, he was too unsurprised and lively, and looked old.
But facing this old acquaintance of more than ten years in front of him, once there is communication, it is difficult for Gu Sheng to pretend to be a natural stranger.
Although she was still shy and moved, she really couldn't regain the alienated and panicked state of that time.
Seeing her complex expression, Jiang Han suspected that her own evaluation caused her to panic, and hurriedly explained: "When I heard the girl's piano skills that day, this king has already seen that the girl is different. Such a mature temperament is the key The most rare!"
Gu Sheng simply let go of the restraints, pouted and looked at Jiang Han angrily like in the previous life, and said bitterly: "It seems that Your Highness has seen many girls of the same age..."
Jiang Han blushed slightly, and hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Miss misunderstood, I just have a few younger sisters who are about the same age as you..."
Gu Sheng couldn't help giggling, the soft sleeves slipped down on his slender arms, revealing the jade bracelet that Jiang Han gave him the day before yesterday.
Jiang Han's eyes lit up, and he couldn't hide some pride on his face, so he lowered his head and sipped his tea, and said softly: "I saw girls rarely wear jewelry that day, and I was worried that girls wouldn't like these trivial and trivial things."
Of course, Gu Sheng could hear the complacency in this guy's words, and quickly followed Jiang Han's heart and said, "Is there any girl who doesn't like jewelry? She doesn't want to wear it, but it's just because there is no one worth pleasing before. "
Jiang Han was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly took a sip of tea to hide his excitement.
Gu Sheng secretly sighed in her heart. According to what she knew about Jiang Han, this conservative guy had to pretend to be a "decorate image" for at least a few months before he could respond to her "temptation".
Now, it's not good for Gu Sheng to post it upside down shamelessly, to get intimate with Jiang Han, and he can only wait for this guy to take the initiative to "quickly" approach...
I'm really clueless!
Gu Sheng cast a reproachful glance at Jiang Han.
Jiang Han was slightly taken aback, and from the corner of his eye, he noticed that Miss Gu's eyes seemed unhappy, so he quickly straightened his sitting posture, putting on an upright and serious expression.
Gu Sheng was even more unhappy...
The two were silent for a while, Jiang Han changed the subject and said, "Ms. Gu and Ms. Ye are old acquaintances?"
"Your Highness can just call the slave's family Asheng." Gu Sheng sighed, and said: "We met on the day of the Drum Music Awards. I hit her off very much, but it's a pity..."
Jiang Han leaned slightly to listen carefully.
Gu Sheng lowered his head and briefly described the tragic situation of Ye's family.
"So that's how it is." Jiang Han looked around, and after a while, he smiled confidently and said, "Girl... A Sheng, don't worry, I can leave this matter to the king."
Gu Sheng hurriedly turned his head and said anxiously: "Your Highness! I appreciate your kindness, but if you want to pay off the debt for the Ye family..."
Jiang Han interrupted her with a wave of his hand, and said with a light smile: "In the eyes of the girl, this king has become such a stupid person? The scam at the gambling stall that day really discredited this king!"
"No! No!" Gu Sheng said urgently: "Your Highness didn't look at it that day, he just wanted to fulfill the kindness of the slave family. If it wasn't for this, how could those tricks embarrass His Highness?"
Hearing the words, Jiang Han was very helpful, and smiled sideways: "Since Ah Sheng trusts me so much, I should leave this matter to my king with peace of mind."
Gu Sheng wanted to ask Qing Jianghan how to deal with it, but since Jiang Han wanted her to "trust her with peace of mind", she had no choice but to swallow her doubts.
Afterwards, the two let go a little bit, and talked very happily, until the sunset glowed into the sky, Jiang Han reluctantly got up to see off the guests.
In this situation, it should have been Jiang Han's repeated attempts to persuade her to stay, and Gu Sheng's shy refusal again and again, but it may be that Gu Sheng's performance was a bit "indulgent" just now, and Jiang Han was so frightened that he was in a hurry to send her back, fearing that Gu Sheng would stay that night Accommodation, bad reputation...
Gu Sheng is really reluctant to leave at the moment, but she still understands the basic rules, so seeing Jiang Han's stupid performance, she can't help but cover her mouth and snigger.
Was Jiang Han ever so dumb before?
Gu Sheng seems to have never seen Jiang Han so immature, maybe because she was six years younger than Jiang Han, so she was really not as mature as Jiang Han.
But now, she can be Jiang Han's big sister psychologically, so Gu Sheng felt that she was molesting young grass...
After reluctantly bidding farewell to King Xuan of "Tender Grass", Gu Sheng returned to Qin Fangyuan, and saw that the girls had already packed their luggage and were preparing to return home tomorrow.
On the day when Ye Qiao was sent away, Gu Sheng personally followed her out of the city for more than ten miles before returning to the mansion reluctantly, but she was not worried in her heart. Since Jiang Han agreed to help, at least Ye Qiao's life is safe.
That's enough.
As soon as the vacation for the competition was over, Gu Sheng returned to school on the first day, completely forgetting that he had offended a certain little scum.
On the same day, she also prepared His Royal Highness's favorite pastries to celebrate the "five days away".
It was a sunny day, and Gu Sheng was in a good mood. After the first class was over, he narrowed his almond eyes with a smile, took out the sugar cake, hummed a little tune, wrapped it up, and said softly, "Your Highness, are you hungry?"
Then, holding the sugar cake, she raised her hand and handed it to His Highness Ninth Prince.
The cuff on her right wrist slipped down, and immediately, the jade bracelet that Jiang Han gave her was revealed again.
His Highness Ninth Prince's long eyelashes covered his faint eyes, casting a shadow in them, his eyes fixed on the sugar cake in Gu Sheng's hand, but the moment her cuffs slipped, those peach blossom eyes suddenly became angry. Obviously—that jade bracelet is obviously not a Tianhuangshi bracelet!
In just a split second, Gu Sheng suddenly instinctively felt a chill in his body!
Before she could raise her head, Jiang Chenyue suddenly raised her hand, knocked the pastry out of her hand with a "snap", stood up, and walked out of the school aggressively.
The surroundings became quiet in an instant, and the nobles who usually flattered Gu Sheng because of the Ninth Prince did not dare to step forward at this moment, watching Gu Sheng slumped in the chair.
I don't know how long it took, Gu Sheng slowly raised his right hand that was numb from His Highness Ninth's patting, and looked at the back of his hand——
The bruises on it were already slightly purple, and her fingers were trembling uncontrollably, with bursts of needle-like pain.
Gu Sheng's face was full of disbelief. Although His Highness Jiu just knocked the sugar cake in her hand and didn't intend to hurt her, this kind of anger was something Gu Sheng had never felt in the past five years.
Jiang Chenyue, the future emperor, really got angry with her for the first time.
But... why?
Only then did Gu Sheng remember the little friction between the two a few days ago, because she slightly neglected His Highness the Ninth Prince?
Thinking of this, Gu Sheng couldn't help clenching his fists, a sense of grievance rushed to his mind, the circles of his eyes immediately turned red, and his nose felt sore.
Gu Sheng threw her head into her arms and choked up on the desk. Although she had imagined a punishment that was a hundred times more severe than this, after all, being with a king is like a tiger, but now that she really suffered such inexplicable grievances, she couldn't control her heart at all. disappointment and despair.
That little guy actually treated her like this one day!
I don't know how long I cried, there were footsteps around, and they walked by rustling. When the sound gradually disappeared, Gu Sheng raised his head slowly with eyes like rotten peaches. The surroundings were completely empty, and there was no one there. So quiet that I could hear the echo of my own choking.
It was only then that she remembered that the next class was going to the school grounds for shooting training.
Thinking of this, intense grievances suddenly appeared in her heart. She was beaten by the little scum, but she had to rush to the school to be a training partner...
Just when she was so wronged that she wanted to cry again, a cold and familiar voice suddenly sounded from a very close distance behind her——
"Enough crying?"
Gu Sheng was startled, turned her head suddenly, and saw Jiang Chenyue sitting on a desk behind her, with one long leg resting on the back of the chair in front, and said with a blank expression: "Gu is going to the school grounds."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Gu Sheng to respond, His Highness Jiu jumped off the table and walked out the door.
Realizing that the people behind her hadn't followed, Jiang Chenyue turned her head and glanced over impatiently out of the corner of her eye.
Gu Sheng was still sitting there in a daze.
She didn't expect His Highness Ninth Prince to wait for her to go to the school grounds, and she was staring blankly at the back of the little guy.
When she regained her senses, she pouted out of anger and covered the back of her swollen hand, trying to let His Highness Jiu know that she had just been beaten...
When they entered the door, the servant still put on a little imposing manner, after all, their master is the current King Xuan, and he was ordered to reward a girl from the little Viscount's mansion, so that she would have a good eye and a sense of humor.
But as soon as he entered the door, as soon as the servant raised his chin, he caught a glimpse of the little girl who came up, and a familiar figure stood upright behind him——
Ninth Highness? !
The servant trembled, and withdrew his haughty attitude, and immediately changed back to the usual appearance of bowing his head in front of the master, and said with a smile: "My servant greets His Highness Ninth, King Xuan sent a younger one to say hello to Miss Gu! Your Highness said that I was in a hurry today, so I don't care about you." I have no preparations, so I gave this small gift to the girl as a token of my heart."
After finishing speaking, the servant held up the small box wrapped in brocade in his hand, and was about to wait for Gu Sheng to kneel down to reward him, when he saw His Highness Ninth Prince behind her stepping forward, and unceremoniously took her The brocade box in hand...
"What did Second Sister give you?" His Highness Ninth Prince opened the brocade box with a "click" and unwrapped the meeting gift for Gu Sheng.

"Okay, step back." His Highness Jiu hurriedly interrupted the servant's bragging without raising his eyes.
Gu Sheng's heart was already running wild at this moment, and Jiang Han must have been worried that presenting the gift in person would cause her to shyly refuse, so he specially rewarded her after parting, as a reassurance for Gu Sheng, to show that the Second Highness Satisfactory attitude after initial conversation.

Gu Sheng seems to have never seen Jiang Han so immature, maybe because she was six years younger than Jiang Han, so she was really not as mature as Jiang Han.
But now, she can be Jiang Han's big sister psychologically, so Gu Sheng felt that she was molesting young grass...
After reluctantly bidding farewell to King Xuan of "Tender Grass", Gu Sheng returned to Qin Fangyuan, and saw that the girls had already packed their luggage and were preparing to return home tomorrow.
On the day when Ye Qiao was sent away, Gu Sheng personally followed her out of the city for more than ten miles before returning to the mansion reluctantly, but she was not worried in her heart. Since Jiang Han agreed to help, at least Ye Qiao's life is safe.
That's enough.
As soon as the vacation for the competition was over, Gu Sheng returned to school on the first day, completely forgetting that he had offended a certain little scum.
On the same day, she also prepared His Royal Highness's favorite pastries to celebrate the "five days away".
It was a sunny day, and Gu Sheng was in a good mood. After the first class was over, he narrowed his almond eyes with a smile, took out the sugar cake, hummed a little tune, wrapped it up, and said softly, "Your Highness, are you hungry?"
Then, holding the sugar cake, she raised her hand and handed it to His Highness Ninth Prince.
The cuff on her right wrist slipped down, and immediately, the jade bracelet that Jiang Han gave her was revealed again.
His Highness Ninth Prince's long eyelashes covered his faint eyes, casting a shadow in them, his eyes fixed on the sugar cake in Gu Sheng's hand, but the moment her cuffs slipped, those peach blossom eyes suddenly became angry. Obviously—that jade bracelet is obviously not a Tianhuangshi bracelet!
In just a split second, Gu Sheng suddenly instinctively felt a chill in his body!
Before she could raise her head, Jiang Chenyue suddenly raised her hand, knocked the pastry out of her hand with a "snap", stood up, and walked out of the school aggressively.
The surroundings became quiet in an instant, and the nobles who usually flattered Gu Sheng because of the Ninth Prince did not dare to step forward at this moment, watching Gu Sheng slumped in the chair.
I don't know how long it took, Gu Sheng slowly raised his right hand that was numb from His Highness Ninth's patting, and looked at the back of his hand——
The bruises on it were already slightly purple, and her fingers were trembling uncontrollably, with bursts of needle-like pain.
Gu Sheng's face was full of disbelief. Although His Highness Jiu just knocked the sugar cake in her hand and didn't intend to hurt her, this kind of anger was something Gu Sheng had never felt in the past five years.
Jiang Chenyue, the future emperor, really got angry with her for the first time.
But... why?
Only then did Gu Sheng remember the little friction between the two a few days ago, because she slightly neglected His Highness the Ninth Prince?
Thinking of this, Gu Sheng couldn't help clenching his fists, a sense of grievance rushed to his mind, the circles of his eyes immediately turned red, and his nose felt sore.
Gu Sheng threw her head into her arms and choked up on the desk. Although she had imagined a punishment that was a hundred times more severe than this, after all, being with a king is like a tiger, but now that she really suffered such inexplicable grievances, she couldn't control her heart at all. disappointment and despair.
That little guy actually treated her like this one day!
I don't know how long I cried, there were footsteps around, and they walked by rustling. When the sound gradually disappeared, Gu Sheng raised his head slowly with eyes like rotten peaches. The surroundings were completely empty, and there was no one there. So quiet that I could hear the echo of my own choking.
It was only then that she remembered that the next class was going to the school grounds for shooting training.
Thinking of this, intense grievances suddenly appeared in her heart. She was beaten by the little scum, but she had to rush to the school to be a training partner...
Just when she was so wronged that she wanted to cry again, a cold and familiar voice suddenly sounded from a very close distance behind her——
"Enough crying?"
Gu Sheng was startled, turned her head suddenly, and saw Jiang Chenyue sitting on a desk behind her, with one long leg resting on the back of the chair in front, and said with a blank expression: "Gu is going to the school grounds."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Gu Sheng to respond, His Highness Jiu jumped off the table and walked out the door.
Realizing that the people behind her hadn't followed, Jiang Chenyue turned her head and glanced over impatiently out of the corner of her eye.
Gu Sheng was still sitting there in a daze.
She didn't expect His Highness Ninth Prince to wait for her to go to the school grounds, and she was staring blankly at the back of the little guy.
When she regained her senses, she pouted out of anger and covered the back of her swollen hand, trying to let His Highness Jiu know that she had just been beaten...
