After the girls in the room made their beds, they all retreated cautiously.

There was only one forsythia cutting the wick, and the flickering candles in the room distorted Gu Jue's shadow on the ground.

"Gu Jue, what are you doing looking for the young master at this time?" He casually teased the cricket, and his eyes fell on the person opposite.

Gu Jue chuckled lightly, his eyes flickered, and there was a hint of sadness in his gentle voice, and he asked, "Did Xiao Jiu really annoy me? At the beginning, I also..."

"Just tell me why you came to find me." Gu Jiu looked away, yawned, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, and stopped looking at Gu Jue.

Gu Jue walked in, looked at Gu Jiu with an inexplicable emotion flashing in his eyes, he sighed: "Xiao Jiu, you are so smart, you must know what I want to do when I come to you."

Gu Jiu bared her teeth and grinned, the same as the smile she showed when she saw Gu Jue just now, bright but without warmth.

'Click' Forsythia finished cutting the wick, put the scissors on the table, put on the windproof glass cover on the lamp again, and the room was much brighter than before.

Gu Jiu glanced at Lianqiao, waved her hand, "Go down."

"Yes." Lianqiao replied.

Before she could walk out the door, a girl came in with tea and snacks.

Lian Qiao glanced at it, then she looked away lightly and walked out.

Gu Jiu's gaze fell on the girl's waist, where there was a sign that read: Peony.

Gu Jiu snorted lightly: "Shaoyao, I've never seen you so clever, today is really strange."

"Master, when will Shaoyao not be smart?! It's just that you haven't noticed it." Shaoyao paused while holding the teacup, turned her head and said with a smile.

Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Yo, you actually learned how to talk back to me?!"

Gu Jue at the side glanced at Shao Yao, with a gentle smile still on his warm and jade-like face, looked at Gu Jiu, and said softly, "Xiao Jiu, why do you dislike me coming to your place so much?"

"Young master didn't say anything." Gu Jiu curled her lips, rolled her eyes, and waved her hand at Shaoyao, "Go down, I have something to say to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince."

"Yes." Shao Yao bent her knees, turned her head and walked out.

Looking at the back of Shaoyao leaving, Gu Jue's eyes were clear, and he asked softly: "Xiao Jiu, Fifth Brother has never begged you for anything, this time, Fifth Brother begs for your help."

"Do you know what you're talking about? Gu Jue, don't you know what the young master hates the most?" Gu Jiu turned his face away from his laziness and his eyes were cold and serious.

With a wry smile, Gu Jue stood up and sighed a long time: "How can I not know your temper, but you are also very clear about Father's body, right? Xiao Jiu, you can deceive yourself and others, but I can't. There is no reserve, if the father has one or two, the Great Zhou will be in chaos, and the war in the Great Zhou has just ended, in case..."

"Hey, don't be so grandiose, don't you just want that seat?!" Gu Jiu sneered.

"Yes, I want it." Gu Jue no longer concealed it, and looked directly at Gu Jiu, solemnly and seriously.

The night was cold and the sky was getting colder and colder. Gu Jiu flinched a bit, glanced around the room, and shouted, "Lian Qiao, come here and close the window, you want to freeze to death?!"

Gu Jue still looked at him steadfastly, his eyes never leaving his eyes.

Forsythia outside the house hurriedly walked in, closed the windows, turned her head and said to Gu Jiu with a smile, "Master, didn't you think it was too hot yesterday? Why is it cold again today?"

After snorting, Gu Jiu didn't look at her, and just muttered, "You're the only one who talks too much."

Lian Qiao smiled, turned her head to salute Gu Jue, then turned and left.

"Xiao Jiu..." Expectation flashed across Gu Jue's eyes, and the smile disappeared on that gentle and jade-like face, showing a little nervousness for the first time.

Gu Jiu's eyes flickered, and he didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a long time, Gu Jiu said, "How do you want me to help you? I don't serve as an official, and I don't fight wars. How can I ask you to ask me in person?"

Hearing Gu Jiu's words, Gu Jue showed obvious joy on his face, and he said hastily, "Yes, of course there are."

After finishing speaking, he seemed to feel that he was too eager, Gu Jue took a deep breath to calm himself down, and the faint smile appeared on the gentle face again.

Looking at Gu Jiu, he said seriously: "Xiao Jiu, I heard that you know the direct descendants of the Mo family?! I came here to borrow this person."

"So that's it, I just said why you are so eager. You came to find me in the middle of the night, so I knew you had no good intentions." Gu Jiu snorted angrily. Since Gu Jue appeared, he knew that Gu Jue was For the sake of the throne, he just didn't want to talk to Gu Jue, so he did other things again and again.

Gu Jue smiled helplessly, "How can this be said to be unkind?!"

"My Lord knows, all of you are looking forward to Uncle's death. When Uncle is not dead, you will fight to the death. If Uncle dies, you will have no scruples. It is unknown how many will survive." Gu Jiutan With a sigh, he turned his head to look at Gu Jue, and said with a complicated expression: "If you took that seat, would you kill them immediately?"

"If they live in peace, I will definitely not be so cruel and violent." Gu Jue smiled lightly, a smile as warm as a spring breeze on his gentle and jade-like face, without any murderous intent.

Gu Jiu smiled disdainfully, those people who didn't want to sit in that seat, it would be strange if they could settle down, but it's none of his business, after all, it's not him who is going to die.

"That direct descendant of the Mo family, it's impossible for you to use him. He just repays the favor to the master. You also know that the pride of the Mo family does not allow them to be driven by anyone. If you want to get news from him, it is possible."

"That's enough, thank you Xiaojiu." The joy in Gu Jue's eyes flashed.

Gu Jiu stood up abruptly, leaned closer to Gu Jue, sprayed his warm breath on his neck, and soon it turned red, Gu Jiu sneered: "Gu Jue, I know you are capable, no matter how you fight, I don't care about it, and I can't control it, but if you do something to hurt uncle because of your position, then I won't let you go."

Gu Jue's eyes flickered, his breathing was disordered, he couldn't hear what Gu Jiu was saying at all, only the delicate face that was close at hand was in his eyes.

"Did you hear that?" Gu Jiu frowned and pushed Gu Jue.

After recovering, Gu Jue nodded with a stiff neck: "I heard that."

Gu Jiu frowned, looked Gu Jue up and down, always felt that there was something wrong with Gu Jue today.

"Xiao Jiu, I, I'm leaving first, and I'll come to you tomorrow." Gu Jue's eyes flickered slightly, he turned around in a hurry, and walked out quickly.

Looking at the back of Gu Jue running away, Gu Jiu held his arms, rubbed his fingers against his smooth chin, and frowned: "Could it be that the young master is too strict? Usually Gu Jue treats the young master pretty well, but this time he I asked the young master to help, but the young master didn't agree, and kept rambling on a lot, Gu Jue is angry?"

But after a while, Gu Jiu stopped thinking about Gu Jue. Gu Jiu didn't know that Gu Jue was not angry, but the cold purple-clothed man in front of him must be angry.

"Qi Heng, Master didn't do anything." Gu Jiu snorted.

"Secret meeting with men in the middle of the night." Qi Heng spit out six words faintly.

Gu Jiu was taken aback, then laughed and said, "That's my cousin."

"The table."

"So what?" Gu Jiu raised his voice suddenly, and then muttered in a low voice, "You're as stupid as everyone else?!"

Gu Jiu's voice was neither loud nor soft, so Qi Heng could hear it clearly.

After listening to Gu Jiu's words, Qi Heng's face darkened, looked at Gu Jiu, and said coldly: "You are not allowed to have private meetings with men in the middle of the night." After he finished speaking, he added: "There are women."

Under Qi Heng's control like this, Gu Jiu jumped instantly, pointed at Qi Heng's nose and scolded: "You think you are the emperor's father?! You control me like this, I can't even see anyone, right? Tell you , Qi Heng, the Lord not only wants to have private meetings with men and women in the middle of the night, but also private meetings with eunuchs!!!"

Seemingly stupefied, Gu Jiu even spoke out to the eunuchs of the private meeting, and the girls outside the house looked at each other in blank dismay, why is the master going crazy in the house?Isn't Grandpa the only one in the house?

Qi Heng's face became darker the more he heard it, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and a terrifying storm seemed to gather in his eyes, black, oppressive, and painful.

Seeing Qi Heng's appearance, Gu Jiu also came back to his senses, but he did not give in to Qi Heng. Ever since he was forced to agree to the marriage contract in prison that day, Gu Jiu was suffocating in his heart. Can't tell, they all came out after being provoked by Qi Heng today.

Ignoring Qi Heng, Gu Jiu turned her head and walked to the side of the bed, took off her shoes, and lay down.

There was a depressing and dull atmosphere flowing in the room, except for the crickets in the cricket cage, there was no other sound in the room, even the sound of breathing was barely audible.

Walking to Gu Jiu's bed, Qi Heng looked at the young man with his back facing him blankly, feeling depressed for a while, and he didn't want to, how could he not know Gu Jiu's temper, he was pushing too hard .

However, Gu Jiu has always been indifferent to him, never said that he likes him, how can he not be nervous?

Qi Heng couldn't tolerate any disturbances, and always felt that Gu Jiu would leave him at any time, so he could only tighten and tighten, but this time, Gu Jiu was completely angered.

"Gu Jiu." With a soft cry, Qi Heng's expression was calm, but a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes.

Seeing that the person on the bed ignored him, Qi Heng's eyes dimmed, and he sat down beside the bed, stroked Gu Jiu's arm, and gave it a slight push.

"Gu Jiu." Another cry.

"..."

Qi Heng lowered his eyelids, covering his painful and oppressed eyes, and slowly retracted the hand on Gu Jiu's arm.

"How can you not be angry?" With a sigh, Qi Heng was a little at a loss.

Gu Jiu who was lying on the bed frowned when she heard Qi Heng's soft question.

"Unless in the future, you don't care about the young master anymore!"

Qi Heng's jaw tightened instantly, staring at the delicate young man on the bed with horrifying eyes, he paused and said: "This will never be possible."
