Mrs. Wen felt extremely uncomfortable when she thought of her daughter's failure at the birthday banquet. This Yunwei has changed a lot recently.

After thinking about it, she felt that what Xi'er said was feasible.

"Okay, but I'll take care of this, so don't interfere."

"Yeah, mother is the best."

Yunxi pulled Wen to act like a baby, with a sweet voice and a sinister smile.

Yunwei, you can't blame me, you had to jump in yourself.

In front of the stage, Liu Fangru rubbed her eyebrows while listening to the opera.

Mrs. Liu asked with concern: "Is Ru'er drunk?"

At the banquet just now, Jiaojiao, a proud child, had a few drinks with her daughter, and Mrs. Liu was worried that her daughter was drunk.

Liu Fangru smiled: "No, I'm just a little dizzy. I think the opera is too noisy."

Mrs. Liu looked at her daughter's rosy cheeks and guessed that she was drunk and wanted to take her back with her. However, the actors hired by the Duke's Palace were really good at singing.

Mrs. Liu has always loved listening to operas and was a little reluctant to give up.

Just as he was hesitating, Mrs. Wen happened to come over, heard their conversation, and said with a smile: "Miss Liu, are you tired? There is not much in the house, but there are many guest rooms. If Miss Liu is tired, go to the guest room to rest for a while." , there is a face-changing scene at the end of this opera, I paid a lot of money to invite it, it would be a pity if Mrs. Liu misses it."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu changed her face and became more interested. Liu Fangru also saw her mother's thoughts and thoughtfully said: "Mom, let me go and have a rest first. Let's go together after you finish the show."

Today is the birthday banquet of the Duke of Guo. Many drunk people will arrange to rest in the guest room, and some female family members will go to take a nap. Mrs. Liu and Liu Fangru didn't think much about it.

Mrs. Wen sent her maid to take Miss Liu down to rest, and then took Mrs. Liu to watch the theater.

Not long after Liu Fangru left, a maid suddenly came to Gu Changling's side and said that the princess was meeting him and asked him to come over now.

Yunwei called him?

Gu Changling just didn't want to deal with these young masters, so he left with an excuse.

Several young men around him were pulling him to throw pots, saying that it was not easy to get together, so it was disappointing to leave now.

Sun Lei, the son of the Sun family, had a big tongue and insisted that he throw into the pot with a narrow mouth. He would only be able to leave if he hit three times in a row.

Gu Changling knew what they were thinking, so he took the arrow with a smile, aimed at the mouth of the bottle, and shot three times in a row, hitting the pot every time.

The movements were fast and accurate, and no one could react for a moment.

Sun Lei's tongue suddenly became quieter, "Brother Gu is hiding something so secretly!"

Gu Changling said modestly, "It's just luck. I'm worried because the princess is drunk. I can't stay with you for a long time. I'm sorry."

When Gu Changling turned to leave, he didn't notice a woman in blue looking at him fascinatedly on the other side of the corridor pillar.

Sun Lei depressedly took the three arrows that Gu Changling had thrown and was about to study how he had thrown them. Unexpectedly, he looked up and saw his sister.

"Rui'er, do you want to watch my brother throw the pot? Come on, my brother will teach you."

The woman named Rui'er was the woman in blue. She hesitated for a moment, raised her skirt and asked, seemingly unintentionally: "Brother, is that man just now Gu Xiuzan, the husband of the princess?"

Sun Lei hummed and walked three meters away to pose and prepare to throw the pot.

Sun Rui asked again: "How is your relationship with my brother? I see you are very happy together."

Sun Lei was so gentle that he didn't explain to his sister that they just couldn't stand a man who was a soft-boiled man and wanted to embarrass him. Who knew what they were hiding.

Then he said vaguely: "It's not bad, after all, when I was working, I would encounter it sometimes."

Sun Rui snorted, then pretended to be a gossip and asked, "I heard that he has a bad relationship with the princess. Is it true or false?"

"What do you think? With Princess Yunwei's temperament, it's impossible for a normal man to be tolerant."

That's why I say that Gu Changling is a softie.

He was already in jail, but he suddenly hugged the Duke's lap again, and endured it until now, and he is on the road to success.

Sun Lei looked down upon him.

Sun Rui felt secretly happy for no reason, but she said calmly: "Oh, that's true."

Sun Lei also talked a lot about Gu Changling. He kept saying it, but he didn't admit that when he got to the Hanlin Academy, he never relied on the Duke of Guo. It was all his own efforts.

Sun Rui's mind was clear, and she could hear some of the reasons. Then combined with the man's words and deeds at the banquet just now, the breeze was bright, and his heart was beating wildly...

Gu Changling had not been to the Duke's Mansion a few times, so he was not familiar with the route. When he followed the little maid to the backyard, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Yunwei is a luxurious person, and Bi Qiong Yuan, just from the name, I know it should be very luxurious and spacious, it should not be this small and exquisite.

He observed the surroundings calmly, then took off his Mingpei from his waist, hid it in his cuffs, and said, "Sorry, my Mingpei seems to have been left at the banquet. Please wait a moment, girl, I'll be right back. "

The maid's eyes flashed, she seemed a little anxious, but she pretended to be calm, "Ahead is Biqiong Courtyard, not far away, you are running back and forth, how tired you are, why don't you let me help you get it?" "

Gu Changling hesitated for a moment, "No, that's the gift given to me by the princess. If I find it missing later, I will be angry. I'd better go by myself."

At this point, the little maid could not stop her, so she had to say: "Then I will go with you. The road to Biqiong Courtyard is quite circuitous. I am afraid that you will go astray later and cannot find Biqiong Courtyard."

Gu Changling narrowed his eyes and said, "It's okay. I've memorized this route. I'll just come over later."

The little maid was secretly anxious, but she didn't dare to say anything more, so she could only say: "Then I will wait for you here. Lord Commander, Lord Commander, please go and come back quickly. Don't keep the Princess waiting for a long time."

"Ah."

Gu Changling turned around and left. After a few steps, his figure disappeared in front of the little maid.

After leaving the backyard, he stopped a boy at random and asked, "Excuse me, where is Biqiong Courtyard?"

Naturally, the servants in the mansion recognized Jun Ma Ye, and the servant immediately enthusiastically pointed the way, saying that it was on the east side. Turn left and right, and when you saw a rose flower wall, it was Biqiong Courtyard.

Gu Changling frowned slightly, pointed to the direction he had just come from, and asked, "What courtyard is over there?"

The boy said: "Oh, there is a guest room over there, specially used for visiting female family members to rest."

Gu Changling thought of something, thanked the boy, and went to the women's banquet to take a look quietly.

Sure enough, Liu Fangru was not there.

He probably guessed what Mr. Wen had in mind.

The plan was not clever, or even very simple, but Wen knew how to attack his heart, so he was probably betting on his thoughts.

Gu Changling could definitely use the trick, and even find a way to take it out, so that Wen wouldn't get the handle, and at the same time win Liu Fangru's favor.

Taifu Liu is respected by the emperor, and Liu Fangru is liked by Taifu Liu. If he can really get the support of the Liu family, it will be a help to him.

What a great opportunity.

Rationally, he should just pretend not to know and just let it go.

But for a long time, Gu Changling's footsteps did not move.

Because he suddenly remembered that woman's tangled look when she heard him say that she liked Miss Liu.

He knew clearly that her care for him was just a drop in the bucket, and he knew that she was so frivolous, yet she was still crying for another man in his arms just now.

Why...are you still hesitating?
