When Jun Qianhe appeared in front of Jun Ruohan the next day, it undoubtedly reminded the emperor of what happened last night.

Therefore, the eyelids jumped unconsciously.

"Aren't you the one who dislikes coming to this palace the most? Why do you have free time today?" Thinking of it this way, it seems that since Bai Yu appeared, his younger brother came to see him less.

There are many rules in the palace, and Jun Qianhe was a wild child who didn't like to be restrained since he was a child. He even left the palace to build a mansion earlier than ordinary princes.

"Brother Huang, I'm here today to ask for something." Jun Qianhe rarely stood on one side in a well-mannered manner, with his eyes and shoulders slumped, and he was begging for help, but he seemed a little angry like that.

Jun Ruohan raised his eyebrows and became interested: "Oh? Let's hear it."

Jun Qianhe pursed his lips, explaining his purpose of coming: "My brother is here to ask the emperor to marry you."

"Marriage?" Jun Ruohan's expression turned serious, "Which girl are you looking at?"

"Zhou Shaoqing has a younger sister, and my brother thinks..."

"That's not right." Jun Ruohan interrupted him before he finished speaking, "You are not an ordinary son of an aristocratic family, you can marry whoever you want."

"Then... the Second Miss of the Shen family is in the head office!" Although I have already heard about the unruly and willful nature of this Second Miss Shen, but right now, as long as he gets married quickly, it doesn't matter who the other party is!

"Nonsense!" Jun Ruohan slapped the imperial case hard, and he figured out that this younger brother came to ask him to marry him not because of a girl he fell in love with, nor because of a love affair, but because of that fellow Bai Yu. .

"Who do you think Shen Zhou is? He wants to use Shen Qiuyun to restrain me, but you still give it to someone eagerly, what are you pretending to be in your head now?" Jun Ruohan wanted to poke his finger on his head. Well, this younger brother has been extremely intelligent since he was a child, but now he has been turned into a fool by that Bai Yu.

Jun Qianhe poked her neck: "I don't care, whoever the girl is, brother, you propose marriage to me now, if I don't get the imperial decree today, I... I won't go back."

Thinking of the turbulent waves in his heart when Bai Yu hugged him last night, he was afraid, and he would have a reassurance today no matter what.

At this moment, Lu Sheng's voice sounded outside the door: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager invites you to the Longevity Palace for lunch."

Jun Ruohan glanced at Jun Qianhe and snorted, "Then you just stay here!"

Turn around and leave.

Jun Qianhe looked at his brother's back without any remembrance, a little depressed, didn't the emperor always spoil him the most?Why didn't you agree to such a small matter today.

With a final stomp, he hurriedly followed out.

Jun Qianhe walked ten paces away from Jun Ruohan, and just followed him without saying a word.

"Your Majesty, my lord..." Lu Sheng whispered behind Jun Ruohan.

"Don't worry about it." When he chased out, he already knew it.

"Yes."

Before stepping into the door, the voice from inside came out.

"I still remember that General Gu loves this drunken shrimp the most, but unfortunately he can't drink well, and every time he eats it, he will make a joke..."

Speaking of embarrassing things in his childhood, Gu Fang felt a little hot.

Su Yanqing said from the side: "Junior Brother Gu is thin-skinned, I'm afraid he will go under the table after the mother talks."

Jun Ruohan couldn't help frowning at the broken laughter.

"emperor……"

Lu Sheng was about to say something but was interrupted by Jun Ruohan raising his hand. Today, the Queen Mother called Gu Fang and Su Yanqing, and invited him again. I'm afraid it's not just as simple as having lunch together.

Jun Qianhe also stopped behind Jun Ruohan, and the two brothers listened to the conversation inside together.

"Gu Fang is seventeen in his twenties this year!" The Queen Mother turned around.

From "General Gu" to "Gu Fang", let the two people present know that the queen mother seems to be going to gossip with them.

Su Yanqing looked up at Gu Fang, who paused and said, "Yes."

"It's time to start a family..." The Queen Mother seemed unintentional.

Gu Xinxin tensed up, and before he could react, he heard the queen mother continue: "The emperor is younger than you, but he is still in his 20s after all. Now that the harem is hanging in the air, it really gives me a headache."

Gu Fang and Su Yanqing looked at each other, it turned out that the queen mother's goal was Jun Ruohan.

"The emperor is diligent, and his whole heart is only on the land of Dayue, and he never dares to let himself go. He is inevitably negligent about the problem of the harem." Gu Fang said.

"Yeah! He is a good emperor, and he is not inferior to the first emperor." The queen mother was relieved, and then said in a sad voice, "It's just that the first emperor already had four princes and three princesses when he was his age. Now The eldest lady of the Shen family is already living in the palace, but the emperor doesn't seem to be distracted, hey..."

Hearing these words, Gu Fang woke up like a dream. If Jun Ruohan's intentions had made him in a dilemma before, now he didn't even have half a thought.

As Jun Ruohan once said, he is the Son of Heaven, and just because he is the Son of Heaven, he should be more responsible to Da Yue.

"The empress dowager doesn't have to worry. The emperor has always had his own ideas. The matter of becoming an empress can be regarded as the emperor's private affairs at a small scale, but at a large scale it is a major national event. The emperor has a sense of proportion." Su Yanqing looked at Gu Fang's expression You can see the changes.

"I hope so." The queen mother sighed, "I am always nagging in his ears about this, and he is also annoying. You grew up with the emperor and are his senior brothers. You should persuade him more and serve the royal family as soon as possible." Branches and leaves spread."

"Yes." The two replied in unison.

Listening to the two people answering, the queen mother showed a satisfied smile on her face.

Called Aunt Yurong: "Go and see, why the emperor hasn't come yet, if he doesn't come again, we won't wait for him."

There was a joke in the words, and there was no distinction between superiority and inferiority. It seemed that this was a family feast.

"Yes." Aunt Yurong was about to leave when she heard Jun Ruohan's voice.

"I thought my mother had invited me here, but I didn't expect the two senior brothers to be here." Jun Ruohan walked in, glanced at the man's pale face, and took it away.

"I see the emperor." Su Yanqing and Gu Fang stood up and bowed together, and then saw Jun Qianhe who was following Jun Ruohan, "I have seen His Royal Highness Duan Wang."

"Since I came here to fill my stomach, I don't need these vain rituals." Jun Ruohan lifted his robe and sat down on Gu Fang's right hand.

The moment he sat down, Gu Fang only felt that the surrounding air was not circulating, and he felt a little stuffy and panicked.

"My son has met the queen mother, so I'll come to have a meal too, the queen mother doesn't mind?" Jun Qianhe said.

"It's all here, can we drive you away?" The queen mother smiled helplessly.

Now that everyone is here, lunch can finally start.

Gu Fang buried his head in his chopsticks and ate it fiercely. I don't know if it was his illusion. He always felt that the Queen Mother's eyes fell on him from time to time. Could it be that he discovered something?

impossible!

"Today's drunk shrimp tastes like it was fed with plum wine." Jun Ruohan said.

Gu Fang was biting the crispy duck in his mouth, the next moment the cuff embroidered with golden dragons turned in front of him, and he saw a prawn dipped in sauce on the plate in front of him.

"Plum wine is sweet and not intoxicating, Senior Brother Gu doesn't have to worry, it doesn't matter if you eat one or two." Jun Ruohan said.

His seemingly unintentional actions attracted the quiet attention of everyone present.

Su Yanqing frowned slightly, obviously disapproving of Jun Ruohan's actions at this time, but he didn't dare to let the queen mother see his emotions, he just counted the rice grains in the bowl and fed them to his mouth.

Gu Fang felt like he was facing an enemy, his whole body was tense and stiff.A heart reached his throat, and his complexion was blue and red.

He should have said a polite remark indifferently as usual, but at this moment, his usual eloquence had no room to play, and he couldn't utter a few words smoothly on the tip of his tongue several times.

Finally, when I took the chopsticks to pick up the shrimp in the bowl, I shook it twice before picking it up.

Gu Fang complained to himself angrily, it was just too useless.

"Senior Brother Su, don't bother with eating..." Jun Ruohan also picked up a drunk shrimp for Su Yanqing, "Senior Brother Su is much better at drinking than Senior Brother Gu, it's rare to get together in the palace and eat more."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Su Yanqing didn't expect that he would have this "follow-up", but no matter what, his complexion finally got better.

Gu Fang raised his eyes quietly, his eyes glided across the queen mother's face and then retracted.

I saw that the Empress Dowager's complexion did not change at all, as if she had never seen the scene of friendship between these three brothers and sisters, the corners of her mouth were always smiling.

"Brother Huang, what about me?" Jun Qianhe was already eighteen this year, but in front of Jun Ruohan, he still relied on being pampered and pushed the bowl in front of him.

"It's right in front of you, do you want me to clip it for you? Do you want me to feed it into your mouth?" Jun Ruohan was uncharacteristically taunting this precious little brother.

Jun Qianhe curled her lips, knowing that he was still angry at herself for asking for a marriage.

"How old are you, and you still compete for favor..." The queen mother said, picking up the shrimp in front of him and putting it in his bowl.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

The word "struggle for favor" pierced Gu Fang's heart, and he took another sneaky look at the Queen Mother.

After a meal, some people felt that it was not messy enough, so they bumped him casually with their arms, and then knocked the tableware in front of him to the ground.

Gu Fang's face was calm, but in his heart he had already beaten this junior on the ground several times.

"I heard that you have a son?" Halfway through the meal, the Queen Mother suddenly said.

The "you" naturally refers to Gu Fang.

"Yes." After the winter hunting, this matter had already been circulated inside and outside the palace, and he didn't believe that the Queen Mother only found out now.

"Don't think about yourself, but also think about your children. The General's Mansion should have a mistress." The queen mother wiped the corners of her mouth with the handkerchief handed over by Aunt Yurong.

The queen mother's words made Gu Fang and Su Yanqing straighten their backs.

"This...not yet, not in a hurry." Gu Fang didn't dare to look at Jun Ruohan's expression.

"It's good to see Zhou Shaoqing's younger sister. I saw her once last year. Not only is she gentle and intelligent, but she's also pretty..." The queen mother seemed to have not heard Gu Fang's words of refusal, and said to herself.

Gu Fang hadn't had time to say anything, but Jun Ruohan took the lead: "That's really a coincidence, the reason why King Duan came to me just now is because of Zhou Shaoqing's sister."
