The real daughter's life was stolen, and she was reborn and became the best in the capital

"No."

Seeing the concern and worry on Gu Mingheng's face, Ming Jin denied it without thinking.

She didn't want Gu Mingheng to get involved.

People like Gu Changxuan are the most calculating and petty.

In life, it is always better to offend a gentleman than to offend a villain.

She didn't want this to affect Gu Mingheng.

However, Gu Mingheng didn't believe what she said.

He didn't miss the ugly look on her face earlier.

But seeing that Mingjin didn't want to talk more, Gu Mingheng was silent for a while and didn't say much.

He stepped aside so that Mingjin could continue walking, and explained his purpose: "The fireworks are about to be set off. Do you want to go up and watch, or go down and join everyone else?"

If Gu Changxuan was not present, Ming Jin would naturally choose to go up.

But in this situation, it is better not to go up and look for trouble. Ming Jin said to Gu Mingheng without thinking, "Go down."

Gu Mingheng looked at her and nodded slightly, letting her go first. He followed behind Mingjin, but he walked with her. Before walking down, he still looked back.

There was still no one there.

But Gu Mingheng thought of Mingjin's previous ugly expression, so his expression naturally didn't look very good either.

I don’t know what exactly happened between her and Changxuan.

Gu Mingheng collected his thoughts and walked down.

Almost as soon as the two of them walked onto the first deck, there was a "bang" in the sky, followed by the deafening sound of fireworks rang out in the air one after another.

"Wow!"

"fireworks!"

"looks great!"

Along with the sound of fireworks, various exclamations were heard from the deck and the pleasure boats on both sides.

Everyone looked up at the sky at this moment.

Some even walked to the front of the pleasure boat to get a clearer view.

Mingjin did not move forward.

But also at this moment, looking up.

Clusters of brilliant fireworks bloomed in the sky, and colorful and various fireworks were intertwined.

The fireworks and the prosperous and peaceful times are undoubtedly on display at this moment.

"So lovely."

Ming Jin tilted his head back and whispered softly.

Her voice was much softer than that of Mingrong and others, and the sound of fireworks exploding was so loud that it was easily drowned out by other sounds.

But Gu Mingheng seemed to have a knack for capturing her voice.

Amidst all the noisy noises, he could still clearly hear Ming Jin's voice.

Gu Mingheng lowered his eyes and looked to the side.

The face of the purple-clad girl was also illuminated by the colorful lights.

Looking at her gentle and peaceful eyebrows and the slightly upturned corners of her lips, Gu Mingheng's eyes also became very gentle.

He said nothing.

Just at this moment, I also looked up and saw the fireworks above my head, which were fleeting but still impressive.

A fireworks display ended.

All the noise seemed to calm down again, and soon everyone started drinking again.

Mingjin and Gu Mingheng nodded and returned to their seats.

Gu Mingheng also went back.

Yuan Ci's gaze briefly moved over the two of them, then he looked away as if it had nothing to do with him.

Gu Changxuan came back after a while.

The others didn't know what happened on the second floor. When Yuan Yu saw him coming back, he just looked at him with a glass of wine and asked curiously, "Yue Qing, where have you been?"

Gu Changxuan naturally would not tell them what happened on the second floor.

Hearing Yuan Yu's question and seeing the others looking over, Gu Changxuan replied calmly and gracefully, "I went to the second floor to get some fresh air."

Yuan Yu and the other two were a little drunk at this moment.

After hearing what Gu Changxuan said, he just nodded, said "oh", and didn't think much about it.

Gu Changye greeted Gu Changxuan even more enthusiastically.

"Fourth brother, you didn't drink much today, come over and drink with us!" Gu Changye said while burping, "Today, I won't leave until I'm drunk!"

"You-"

Gu Changxuan looked at him helplessly: "You can't remember a single word that the emperor said to you."

His words and actions showed the concern of a good brother.

"Fourth brother!"

Gu Changye shouted in dissatisfaction: "It's a great day, you are not allowed to scold me!"

"Okay, okay, Fourth Brother won't say any more."

Gu Changxuan really lived up to his previous good reputation.

Even though such an unpleasant thing happened before, he was still able to talk to others without changing his expression, and no one would notice that there was something wrong with him.

Facing Gu Changye.

He always looks like a good brother.

It was just that when he was drinking with them occasionally, he couldn't help but glance at the opposite side secretly. When he saw Ming Jin, Gu Changxuan couldn't help but freeze his gentle gaze.

But it was soon replaced by a smile. He turned around and continued to smile and toast with Yuan Yu and others.

In this regard, Mingjin has always watched coldly.

She did not expose Gu Changxuan's true identity in public, nor did she mention the previous conversation between the two on the second floor.

From beginning to end, she just watched coldly, but saw that Gu Changxuan deliberately put her aside and was able to talk to anyone.

Even his second brother looked at him with admiration.

Mingjin's heart still sank.

Gu Changxuan’s disguise over the years was not in vain. Even Ming Jin had to praise his acting skills.

If she hadn't known what kind of person he was, she would probably have been fooled by him.

No wonder he was able to win among his brothers in the end.

Although he was a prince, he never used his status to criticize others. Instead, he was courteous to others and treated everyone with courtesy.

So after the third prince rebelled and the crown prince plotted treason, Gu Changxuan was quickly supported and ascended to the throne by his own supporters.

The laughter can still be heard in the distance.

Ming Jin lowered his eyes and looked at his own reflection in the teacup.

The tea is gently shaken.

Mingjin's reflection was not very clear either.

We still can't let Gu Changxuan rise. We can only feel at ease when a person like him is suppressed all his life and never has a chance to rise.

"Seventh sister."

Ming Sheng's voice came to my ears.

"Ok?"

Mingjin looked over.

She put down the teacup in her hand, her expression normal, as if nothing had happened.

"what happened?"

Ming Sheng naturally didn't know what was going on in her mind before.

She just held a plate of black plum cake, smiled faintly with two dimples, and asked Ming Jin: "This black plum cake is good, do you want to try it?"

Mingjin's gaze then turned to the black plum cake in her hand.

She hummed softly and nodded in agreement: "Then try it."

Mingjin said as he took one.

Ming Sheng's eyes lit up slightly. After seeing Ming Jin take it and taste it, she couldn't help but ask, "How is it?"

Ming Jin nodded: "Yes, it's not bad."

The taste is sweet and refreshing, and very appetizing.

Mingjin thought that his grandmother had a poor appetite these days, so he thought about asking the maid for the recipe of the black plum cake so that he could go back and ask someone to make it for his grandmother.

Seeing that she liked it too, Ming Sheng smiled happily.

"I'll give it to Fourth Sister to try, too."

Ming Sheng said as he passed the cake in his hand to the other side: "Fourth sister, would you like to try it too?"

But Mingrong was feeling very aggrieved at the moment, so how could he give her a good face?

If it wasn't the wrong place, with her temper, she would have gotten angry with Ming Sheng long ago.

At this moment, he could only give Ming Sheng a blank look, then glare at Ming Jin implicitly, and then turn his face away.

Ming Sheng didn't know what was wrong with her.

I was given a cold look for no apparent reason and couldn't help but look surprised.

But she was obviously used to Mingrong's temper. Although she was surprised, she didn't say anything. She just took the pastries back and shared them with Mingjin.

Mingjin glanced at Mingrong and said nothing more.

……

It was almost midnight when the end came.

If Gu Mingheng hadn't spoken, Yuan Yu and Gu Changye would probably have kept Ming Jingting drinking.

"All right."

Gu Mingheng saw that the brothers and sisters of the Ming family in the distance were either tired or had already dozed off. Although Ming Jin looked okay, he obviously didn't want to stay here any longer.

"If you want to drink, we'll meet again next time. It's late today, so let's go home first."

Gu Mingheng is of noble status, so naturally, others will not say anything when he speaks.

This banquet, which was a chance encounter, finally ended.

At this point, Jinshui Lake and the opposite Zhuque Street were not as crowded and lively as before.

After the prosperity, it seems a bit deserted.

The pleasure boat continued to sail towards the shore.

When they reached the shore, Gu Mingheng had already given his instructions: "Yue Qing, take Xiao Wu back home. Bo Yin and Ji Qing will be in your care."

Gu Changxuan and Yuan Ci hadn't drunk much, so they nodded in agreement.

Gu Mingheng walked up to Mingjin again and said to her, "I'll have someone take you back."

When Mingjin heard this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Gu Mingheng would send them back personally.

Fortunately.

"Thank you for your help, Your Highness." Ming Jin and Gu Ming Heng said politely.

When the two of them were talking.

Gu Changxuan couldn't help but glanced towards Mingjin.

Seeing her attitude towards Uncle Wang, and thinking about what she had said to him on the second floor before, Gu Changxuan couldn't help but frown.

But soon.

Before anyone else noticed, he returned to normal and turned his head with a gentle expression.

He coaxed Gu Changye, who was already very drunk but still clamoring to continue drinking, "Okay, when we get back, Fourth Brother will drink with you again."
