At dawn, the servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion got busy.Gu Mingheng was lying on the bed, because last night was full of chaotic dreams, he didn't sleep well, and he was a little tired.He sniffed the calming incense in the air, frowned slightly, stuck out his hand outside the curtain, and tapped the jade chime placed beside the bed, and there was a crisp sound.

Immediately outside the door came the voices of Azheng and Ayu, "My lord is well, I have come in." Then there was the sound of the door opening gently, through the screen one could clearly see the attendants filing in. Under the leadership of A Zheng and A Yu, Tong Maid walked in slowly and silently.

"Turn out the incense." Gu Mingheng leaned on the bed and ordered, his voice full of tiredness and displeasure.After finishing speaking, a little maid tremblingly went to the censer and extinguished the incense, and when she returned to the end of the line, she took a cautious look at Ayu.

Ayu glanced at her from the corner of her eye, and then said, "My lord, you don't like the smell of Anshenxiang?" He stepped forward to support Gu Mingheng, brought him clothes, and asked casually.

"Don't use calming incense from now on, from now on, I'm not allowed to use any incense burners in my bedroom." He stood up and sat in front of the bronze mirror, cleaned his teeth with the salt placed in the emerald jar, and then closed his eyes.

Now that I think about it carefully, when I was in the East Palace, incense was burned in the prince's bedroom every day.There are not many incenses that can harm the body recorded in medical books, and this is not an uncommon method in the inner house.

Maybe it's just that no one would have thought that such a method would appear in the East Palace to murder the prince of a country.

A cold smile curled up on the corner of Gu Mingheng's mouth. It seems that in this life, he still has a lot to guard against.Before entering the palace, this short period of time was enough for him to clear his mind.Who should I reuse and who should be guarded against.

It's like fighting with a piece of chess, if you don't want to make a good move, or even dozens of moves later, the whole army will eventually be defeated due to negligence or even a small accident.

The defeated general, he is not.

A Zheng and A Yu looked at each other behind him, they both knew that Young Master was in a bad mood today, but they had to say what had to be said.Ah Zheng nodded towards A Yu, and then said slowly, "The palace has sent the wedding clothes over." After speaking, he stood aside and did not speak.

After a long time, Gu Mingheng opened his eyes, only then did he notice the bright red wedding dress held in the hands of the waiter with his head bowed beside the screen.

"Now, what time is it?" His brows and eyes moved slightly, but no one could see his mood at this time.The most inconvenient thing about a superior person is that people can see their mood, so that the other party has already seen the clue before they have acted.Meeting a strong opponent is half the battle.

"It's already time." Ah Yu replied softly from the side.

"It's almost the end of the day." Gu Mingheng suddenly said something inexplicably, then stood up, "Let's take a bath."

Originally, I had already prepared the bathing needs, but I was just worried that Gu Mingheng would be unhappy, so I didn't mention it all the time.Now that he offered to take a bath, the servants breathed a sigh of relief, and there were people waiting at the door to arrange it.

Turning around the screen and walking to the door, Gu Mingheng stopped suddenly. He turned around and looked at the waiter who was holding the wedding clothes high, "unfold all the wedding clothes." Afterwards, a large piece of red appeared in front of him, so intense The color is a bit dazzling, like a continuous flame suddenly ignited.

Gu Mingheng stared fixedly at this piece of red, and when his eyes fell on a certain point, his eyes gradually turned cold, and asked Ah Zheng and A Yu who were standing aside, "What does your majesty say about Xifu in the edict?" His eyes Sweeping over, the arms of a few servant girls were already trembling, and their faces were a little pale.

"It is mentioned in His Majesty's decree that the son's dress is made by the prince." Ah Zheng buried his head deeply as he spoke. As soon as he finished speaking, all the maids and boys in the room fell to their knees, and the servants waiting outside heard Xiang Dong also quickly bent his knees, and his prostrate body trembled a little.

Gu Mingheng withdrew his gaze and ignored the others, "Ah Zheng, watch them change the patterns on the wedding clothes, otherwise, they will all be killed." His voice was very soft, and his lips were closed, but the air was stagnant coldness.After speaking, he stepped over the threshold and walked to the bathroom.

He walked slowly on the long corridor, with red lanterns hanging on the edge of the corridor, gently swaying in the wind.The long blue hem of the clothes meanders behind her, like a green lotus in full bloom, the fragrance is striking, but the coldness is fierce.

At the corner, Gu Mingheng stopped suddenly, looked at a clump of green bamboos in the corner of the courtyard, his eyes were slightly lost in thought, and then became sharp without concealment, "Go and tell father, if you don't want any mistakes in the prince's wedding, Just let him take care of his wife."

Ayu bowed subconsciously, shocked by Gu Mingheng's aura in his heart, thought to answer cautiously, "Yes." After speaking, he bowed and took a few steps back, before turning around and walking towards the main courtyard.

But madam really went too far this time. Although the young master is Mrs. Yuan's son, it is a big deal to enter the East Palace now. How can he violate the imperial decree and quietly downgrade the prince's dress to the county king's dress, thinking that the young master dare not be here The wedding ceremony directly pointed out her methods, or did she think that there was Lanling Xiao's support behind her, and the Gu family dared not tear their face apart?

There was a sarcastic smile in Ayu's eyes, and he quickened his pace towards the main courtyard.Sure enough, fools entertain the public.

Du Fangzhai.

Hong Yao knelt on the ground and tied the long brocade belt around her waist, then stood up with a bow, and stepped aside.

"Today's makeup, is it too gorgeous?" Xiao Zhiwei asked softly while facing the bronze mirror that the maid was kneeling and holding, looking sideways at herself in the mirror.She is dressed in a first-class dress of the lady of the country, crowned with nine hairpins, two temples, and nine tins. The long ribbon is submerged in the hem of the skirt. It is more than formal, but it lacks the beauty that should be at this age.

"Madam is in the prime of youth." Hong Yao said with a smile, "Today is the ninth son's great joy, so it would be better to be more colorful." Xiao Zhiwei is only 25 years old, and she really deserves the word "fanghua".

"Great joy? It's the time of Wanling's wedding." As he spoke, he casually glanced at the figure in the bronze mirror, then turned around and sat in front of the mirror, carelessly fiddling with a gold silk pearl hairpin from the South China Sea.

Hong Yao stopped talking, and waited quietly, with her head lowered.

At this time, the voice of the little servant came from outside the door, "The Prime Minister has arrived." Seeing Xiao Zhiwei fiddling with Zhenzhu Chai's hand, he paused, then stood up and faced the door, with a calm face, but neither joy nor greeting.

When Gu Jiyan entered the room, he saw Xiao Zhiwei standing there quietly, his expressionless expression made him feel a little annoyed, and his complexion was not very good.

"Your Excellency is not in the front yard to greet you, but you came to Dufangzhai. Why?" Seeing Gu Jiyan's expression, she lost her tone and sat down on the chair, looking at Gu Jiyan and said slowly .She has a pair of almond eyes, and she has added a lot of makeup, which makes her look a little domineering.

"Do you still need me to tell you about the good things Madam has done?" Gu Jiyan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and his tone became leisurely.He is the son of an aristocratic family, in terms of nourishing qi, Xiao Zhiwei is not comparable to him.Although the Gu family in Puyang and the Xiao family in Lanling are both aristocratic families, there are also differences between these big families.As for the direct lineage of each clan, there is also a difference between the orthodox direct lineage and the collateral branch.

"A good thing?" Xiao Zhiwei looked at Gu Jiyan with a smile, and there was no difference.

Gu Jiyan put down his teacup, looked at her appearance and didn't speak again, fixedly looked at the slender eyebrows and eyes outlined by her, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Although Mingheng is your sister's son, but he is my Gu family's son." Although your elder sister is gone, the first wife's place on the genealogy will always be her name.

Although Wanling's age is about the same as the crown prince's, her status, no matter what, cannot enter the East Palace. Besides, Mingheng's entry into the palace is meant by a priest, so don't be a laughing stock in the eyes of others, or I will Puyang Gu's and your Lanling Xiao's can't bear this face. "

As he said that, he suppressed his smile, turned around and walked out the door, the friction between the wide sleeves and the belt was very ear-piercing.

Xiao Zhiwei's smile gradually faded after he went out.The teacup in his hand fell heavily to the table, but at the last inch he slammed down the force, and there was only a few inaudible sounds between the teacup and the table.

The maid in the room is like a silent stone statue, almost eerily quiet.

"Red medicine, finger Danko, thicker."

Gu Mingheng was wearing a white tunic and sitting comfortably on a chair. He was 11 years old, but he was tall and slender. A little servant girl behind him was fumigation for his hair, and his movements were very careful.It has been two hours now, and the noise from far away can be heard even in the bedroom.

The direct descendants of the Gu family entered the East Palace, and the ruling and opposition forces were divided again.Everyone in the government and the public knows that in just ten years, the Gu family is very likely to reach the peak of Dayong, and Gu Mingheng is very likely to be the future queen regent.

"My lord, it's fixed." Ah Zheng entered the room and said, behind him was a row of maidservants kneeling, holding up trays with neatly folded gowns.Gu Mingheng let out a "hmm" and didn't speak again.

At this moment, his mind was a little messy, thinking that he would enter the palace before midnight tonight, he felt his breathing became short of breath.He carefully recalled the scene of his big wedding in his previous life. At that time, the prince Lu Chengning suddenly lost control of his emotions, which scared countless people. Even the emperor stood up directly from the throne in shock.Gu Mingheng wouldn't believe it if there was no one instigating and planning behind it.

In the previous life, he had been with Lu Chengning for more than ten years. Although he didn't listen or speak, he was an extremely quiet person. He could spend half a day staring at a flower without moving an inch.Why did such a thing happen at the big wedding?

"Young Master." A Yu's voice came from next to his ear, Gu Mingheng shifted his gaze to him, and heard him say, "The prince has left the Chengtian Gate."

The word prince fell in his ears, Gu Mingheng wanted to ask what's the matter, but he stopped when the words came to his lips, and instead replied flatly, "Understood".After passing the Chengtian Gate, one has already left the palace and arrived at Zhuque Street.The prince has never liked the noisy atmosphere, maybe he is very impatient now?

Thinking of this, Gu Mingheng was suddenly a little dazed, what happened to him, although he had decided to help this silly prince keep the throne, when did he start caring about his emotions?

He shook his head thinking about it, and ordered, "Bring the dress here." Hearing this, the waiters waiting at the side quietly and quickly unfolded the red dress, and put it on for Gu Mingheng very delicately.The dress is extremely complicated, there are three layers for the middle coat alone, not to mention the outer robe and various accessories.

Gu Mingheng's skin is as white as porcelain, and his eyebrows and eyes are of a suitable shade. The Gu family in Puyang is a family of nearly a thousand years. Hundreds of years ago, there was a saying "Peach Blossom, all come out of Puyang". The word "Peach Blossom" refers to The son of the Gu family in Puyang has peach blossom eyes, shaped like peach blossom petals, with slender eye tails, intoxicating when smiling, cold when not smiling.

Gu Mingheng has not yet been crowned, but his eyes are full of both spirit and form. When he is not smiling, he is like a star embellishment. When he is happy, his eyes are smiling, like ten miles of peach blossoms that make people confused.

Because the crown has not yet been crowned, Gu Mingheng did not wear the jade crown, but tied up his hair with a black headband embroidered with dark silver thread.Stretching out his long sleeves, Gu Mingheng turned around and looked at Azheng and Ayu who had been stunned and asked quietly, "What's wrong?"

"Young Master is handsome." A Yu came back to his senses first, and said something, and then found that he had slipped a bit, but the astonishment in his eyes was still there.On weekdays, the young master often wears green clothes, like snow on a high mountain, looking up at it.And now the young master in red is really unforgettable.

Gu Mingheng glanced at him, "You two are going to follow me into the palace, be careful in your words and deeds." After speaking, he saw A Zheng and A Yu bowed down one after another, and did not speak again, he understood their minds.

"Get ready, the prince should arrive soon."
