Gu Zhengchu was invited as a matter of course, but it was unusual for Gu Rong to be invited as well, and what was even more strange was that Gu Zhiyu, who lived alone in Gu's mansion, was not invited.

The palace specially sent someone to Gu Zhengchu's newly built mansion to inform them, saying that he was inviting the eldest son Gu and the second son Gu to the palace banquet. Gu Zhengchu always thought that someone from Gu Zhiyu would come to Gu's mansion to invite him, but he didn't know until he arrived at the palace. Well, the emperor didn't invite Gu Zhiyu at all.

The emperor had been in bed for many days, and he had no time to argue about many things. Even though such a trivial matter as who to invite to the palace banquet was in his name, it was impossible for him to handle it himself. So...the only possibility is Song Qianyuan.

Wanting to understand this, Gu Rong looked complicated.

The system is right, Song Qianyuan can really do it, he is already one step away from that goal.

Gu Rong entered the palace together with Gu Zhengchu.

Gu Zhengchu had made a great contribution, and when he was in the limelight, everyone tried to get close to him. After Gu Rong followed Gu Zhengchu into the palace, he was greeted and stopped several times on the way.

After finally walking outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Gu Rong suddenly saw a person standing on the porch outside the hall door.

He took a closer look and found that it was Song Qianyuan.

He was wearing a python robe that represented the identity of the prince, and his long hair was tied up, looking handsome and noble.

In fact, Gu Rong has always felt that Song Qianyuan has a kind of nobility emanating from the inside out.

He used to work as a nursing home in Gu's mansion, and he wore the most common blue cloth clothes, but he could tell the difference from other servants at a glance.

But now, Song Qianyuan was wearing a python robe and standing outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony with his hands behind his back, which allowed Gu Rong to see the difference between him and other princes at a glance.

No matter what, he is always the most special one.

Gu Zhengchu stepped forward and bowed to Song Qianyuan: "I have met the third prince."

Song Qianyuan smiled: "Master Gu, excuse me."

The eunuch behind Song Qianyuan said: "Master Gu, please."

After speaking, another eunuch stepped forward and led Gu Rong and Gu Zhengchu into the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Only now did Gu Rong understand that the reason why Song Qianyuan stood outside the hall was because he might be hosting the Queen Mother's birthday banquet today, so he would welcome guests outside the hall.

The queen mother's birthday banquet has always been more grand than the emperor's birthday banquet. In the past, when the emperor had energy, most of them would ask questions in person to show filial piety. Today, such an important matter fell into Song Qianyuan's hands, which is enough to prove that the emperor is really very good to him now. It is important.

Gu Rong followed Gu Zhengchu into the hall, and when he passed by Song Qianyuan, he couldn't help but glance back at him.

Sensing his gaze, Song Qianyuan tilted his head and smiled at him.

Gu Rong felt relieved and smiled back at him.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Rong felt the warmth of the fingertips hanging by his side.

It turned out that it was Song Qianyuan who took advantage of his large embroidered robe and squeezed his hand when he was not prepared.

Gu Rong's palms suddenly burst into fine sweat.

He looked around and saw no one noticed, so he retracted his hands carefully.

"Wait for me." Song Qianyuan whispered in his ear.

The tips of Gu Rong's ears turned red instantly, he lowered his head not daring to look at Song Qianyuan, and followed Gu Zhengchu into the hall quickly.

The palace banquet is about to start, and people are coming and going in the hall, Song Qianyuan's small gesture just now made Gu Rong's heart beat, he was afraid of being accidentally seen, so that he sat down with Gu Zhengchu in the seat, the blush on his face still didn't stop. fade away,

Gu Zhengchu noticed his abnormality, turned around and asked him: "Why, but is there any discomfort in your body? It's windy today, you should have extra clothes when you go out."

Gu Rong hurriedly said: "It's okay, I think the hall is too hot."

Gu Rong's body is no longer so delicate, just blowing the wind won't have any major impact.

Hearing what he said, Gu Zhengchu felt relieved.

Most of the time, Gu Zhengchu is not a careful person. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he has the open-mindedness of a martial artist in him, so he doesn't take Gu Rongfang's strangeness to heart.

"I used to think that the third prince belonged to the king of Beiping... I never expected," Gu Zhengchu said, taking a sip of tea from the teacup on the table in front of him, "The third prince does have some skills. With such a life experience, he can know how to endure dormancy and forbearance. It's a great talent."

Gu Zhengchu praised Song Qianyuan a few words to Gu Rong.

Gu Rong thought to himself, could he not be a great talent?That is the protagonist appointed by the system.

Gu Zhengchu said again: "He used to be a nursing home in our Gu Mansion, fortunately you never made things difficult for him, otherwise he might not have such an attitude towards us today."

Gu Rong: "..." He actually wanted to make things difficult at first.

Gu Zhengchu turned his head and said to Gu Rong: "Since he has such an identity now, even if he misses some old feelings that you once took him in, you can't get too close to him. If in the future... In short, the Gu family is now In this situation... there is a difference between honor and inferiority."

Indeed, Gu's mansion has lost its glory in the past. Whether this title can be kept in Gu Zhiyu's hands in the future is another matter. The gap between him and Song Qianyuan has become wider and wider.

When he first arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Gu Rong was already worried. He didn't feel relieved until he saw that Song Qianyuan's attitude towards him was the same as before.

Now being brought up by Gu Zhengchu, Gu Rongzhong became worried again.

He sat for a while, stood up and said to Gu Zhengchu: "Brother, the hall is too boring, I'll go out for a walk."

Gu Zhengchu had no doubts about him, and said, "Don't wander around, come back early."

Gu Rong walked out of the hall, walked around to the Gong room behind the side hall on the right side, came out after cleaning his hands, arranged his clothes, and was about to go back to the main hall, when he walked outside the side hall, the door was suddenly opened from the inside, and A hand stretched out from the back door and pulled Gu Rong in.

Gu Rong restrained his urge to exclaim.

Fortunately, Yuan Sheng had been waiting outside the main hall and did not notice that Gu Rong came out from the back of the side hall, otherwise he would have been frightened when he suddenly disappeared.

Gu Rong raised his head and saw Song Qianyuan's familiar face.

Song Qianyuan hugged his waist lightly and said with a smile, "Chenchen."

Gu Rong said lightly: "If my elder brother knows that I'm missing, he will be very anxious."

"It doesn't matter," Song Qianyuan said, "The palace banquet will be over in a while, let's go see elder brother together."

Gu Zhengchu is not Song Qianyuan's elder brother, yet Song Qianyuan called him that.

Gu Rong looked at him and said, "What if my elder brother thinks that you can achieve great things and no longer agrees with us to be together?"

Song Qianyuan turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile: "Since the eldest brother disagrees, then don't care what he thinks, anyway, I want to live with Chenchen for the rest of my life."

Gu Rong lowered his head, his eyelashes drooping slightly.

"What's wrong?" Seeing his expression, Song Qianyuan bent slightly and said, "Why are you unhappy? You don't believe me?"

Gu Rong shook his head, stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around his back, and hugged him tightly.

Song Qianyuan thought for a while, and seemed to understand what came over, and smiled: "I know what Chenchen is worried about, and yes, some words don't count. If you want my elder brother to believe me, you need to show some sincerity."

After a pause, Song Qianyuan said again: "Chenchen, I may not be a good person, but what I say always stands. There are some things you may not know, but I have to tell you that in the past... I didn't win the throne. mind."

Gu Rong was startled.

"I grew up under Song De'an's knees. He told me many things about the palace since I was a child, so I have never had a good impression of the palace."

"Although Concubine Xiao Gui is my biological mother, I have never met her before. Coupled with her experience, I feel that the high walls of the palace are a place that can trap people for a lifetime, even more terrifying than prisons."

"Later, I gradually grew up and had a correct understanding of the palace, but... I never felt that it was the place I should yearn for, so..."

Song Qianyuan paused, but did not continue.

However, Gu Rong seemed to understand his unfinished words all of a sudden: "So in the past, when the King of Peking forced you to seize the throne, you failed, right?"

A flash of astonishment flashed in Song Qianyuan's black eyes.

Because of his dark eyes, just looking at those eyes has always given people the impression that his emotions are not revealed, but today, even Gu Rong can easily see the surprise in his eyes at a glance.

"Chenchen, how do you know..."

Judging from this reaction, Gu Rongjue must have guessed right.

"Do you know why I treated you like that before?" Gu Rong said.

After thinking about it, he simply confessed the system to Song Qianyuan.

After Song Qianyuan finished listening, the surprise in his eyes could not go away for a long time.

"So you know..." Gu Rong pinched his fingers and said, "Why did I treat you so awkwardly at the beginning? In fact, I also had a purpose for treating you like that at the beginning..."

"But Chenchen's desire to help me is true," Song Qianyuan leaned closer to Gu Rong, "right? Otherwise, when the 'system' you mentioned, let you humiliate me and do evil to me, you can do it again. Be more ruthless, be more joyful..."

"Anyway, you are the young master, and I can't resist." When Song Qianyuan said this, his expression was half a smile, and his eyes shone with excitement.

"..." Gu Rong didn't know what he was thinking of, saying that he couldn't resist, Gu Rong was 1 people who didn't believe it.

Gu Rong deliberately said: "How do you know it's true, you obviously look so powerful, you can knock me down with just one arm."

Song Qianyuan put his arms around Gu Rong and smiled: "Indeed."

Gu Rong: "..."

Song Qianyuan said again: "I also have a story, do you want to hear it?"

He talked about how he was chased to the Gu mansion by the people sent by the prince in his previous life, and Gu Rong helped him escape.

"So..." Song Qianyuan concluded, "Chenchen has a kind heart, even if there is no such system, Chenchen is willing to help me."

Leaning in Song Qianyuan's arms, Gu Rong said, "Yes, I didn't want you to die before, and I don't want you to die even more in the future."

"No, we'll grow old together."

As a result, when he came out of the side hall, the palace banquet was almost over.

Today's palace banquet, the emperor did not show up, the queen mother only appeared for a while at the end of the palace banquet, the strange thing is that the third prince seemed to have disappeared during the palace banquet, and only sat with the queen mother for a while when the queen mother appeared.

However, Gu Zhengchu discovered that Gu Rong said that he had gone out for a stroll and hadn't returned for a long time, so he almost sent someone to look for him. As a result, the third prince just entered the hall with his front foot, and Gu Rong followed him back.

Gu Zhengchu was so perceptive, he looked back at Yuan Sheng behind Gu Rong, who was dodging his gaze, and then at Gu Rong beside him whose blushing face hadn't faded, and fell silent.

After the palace banquet was over, Gu Zhengchu and Gu Rong left the palace gate.

Song Qianyuan originally planned to find Gu Zhengchu to have a chat with him after the palace banquet, but after Gu Rong reminded him, after thinking about it for a while, he decided that no matter how much he said, he would not be able to win Gu Zhengchu's trust, so it was better to actually do it.
