The Duke of Wei's Mansion is one of the three great princes of the Dashang. It is difficult to describe its luxury with only words such as magnificent and resplendent. But you can enjoy the corresponding style of garden paths, flowers and water.If the government of this country is willing to open it to people from Huajing to visit the mansion, it will definitely become a holy place for rendezvous with the same reputation as the small bamboo forest outside the Suzaku Gate.

Shang Zhi hung on the top of the tree in a daze. Although he had concealed his presence well, the dark guard, who was easily aware of Shang Zhi's existence and was upset about it, gave him a wink. The wind blew, and after a little shaking, the branches were raised, as if they were a little lighter.

It's been a while since I got along with the hidden guards, and Gu Huai also felt the departure of those people.After thinking about it, he asked Chang Min and An Xiang to leave too.

At this time, they were in a deep garden in Dongyuan, with a small pavilion next to it.Gu Huai couldn't help smiling, walked to the side of the pavilion, and tapped on the table lightly, "I don't know how that kitten is doing now?"

Shang Zhi also walked over, with a slight smile in his eyes, his face still not showing, he just curled his lips, "I don't know if there is a person who is accompanied by beautiful women and wine, and also has peanuts and millet as food?"

"Shang Zhi." Gu Huai looked at him suddenly, "Do you know how I found that kitten?"

"Ok?"

"Because it smells like shit." Gu Huai approached Shang Zhi, and took a serious sniff, "A cold scent."

The other party was too close to him, and Shang Zhi, who had a lifetime of memories, still couldn't be completely calm, his face turned red all of a sudden.He looked at Gu Huai, who was close at hand, raised his head slightly from this distance, and he could even see the slight fluff on the other's face, under the sunlight, it was so transparent that it was suffocating.

A burst of courage suddenly arose in his heart, and he stepped on the stone chair in the pavilion, immediately standing taller than the opponent by more than half a head.Taking advantage of the moment when Gu Huai raised his head in surprise, he directly bumped into Gu Huai's lips.

The four lips meet.

After a long time, Gu Huai took a step back slowly, moved away from Shang Zhi's position where he was almost frozen there, looked at the other party's face that was red to the ears, and suddenly laughed, "Huh?" end sound.

"En." Shang Zhi blinked, then licked his lips, the corners of his lips curled up, and he tried hard to maintain his superior aura with a straight face.

He coughed lightly, "Well, Prince Rui's residence still lacks a master."

Gu Huai rubbed his chin, "My new home just happens to lack a master."

The two looked at each other, and Gu Huai looked at Shang Zhi's immature face, and suddenly felt... Could it be that he is really a child lover?Beast!

Shang Zhi thought silently, plus his age in his previous life... Could it be that he is a child lover?Beast!

The two beasts looked away again, but in an instant, the charming atmosphere disappeared without a trace.

Well, let's wait until the other party reaches the crown...

"Ahem, when are you going to the Southwest?" Gu Huai coughed twice and asked about business.

This time, Shang Zhi really completely recovered his little coffin face. "immediately."

"Send you off?" Gu Huai felt that the other party's breath seemed to be a little depressed, and after thinking about it, he picked him up from the chair, and then gently placed him on the ground, but he saw that Shang Zhi's expression didn't change, but his eyes were full. Full of unacceptable expressions.

I was actually being hugged... Shang Zhi tried his best to straighten his face, and let go of the weird feeling that he was being hugged like a child that couldn't get rid of in his mind, and nodded with a straight face, "Let's go. "

As soon as the two of them left this small, sparsely populated courtyard, they were discovered by the flattering army of Duke Wei's mansion.Shang Zhi impatiently dealt with them, he put his arms around Gu Huai's waist, leaped up, and climbed over the high courtyard wall of the Duke of Wei's mansion, but when he climbed over the wall and was about to land, he was caught by a person who suddenly appeared in front of him. He turned a corner and almost dropped the person in his arms.

His face became serious all of a sudden, he put Gu Huai down in a dark silence, and then turned to look at that person.Just now when he turned over, this person was obviously still in a far corner, and his eyes lit up when he saw the two of them, and he ran over quickly... He squinted his eyes, and felt that the person in front of him seemed to be a bit confused. look familiar.

At this moment, he heard Gu Huai's voice, "Qi... Young Master?"

Shang Zhi's face is turning black, isn't this person in front of him a woman?What son!

The person in front of him is Shang Zhi's former love Qi Xiaoli, and Gu Huai was very surprised to see her here.At this time, she was dressed in red, and her appearance was very delicate, she seemed to be worthy of the beauty of a princess.

Qi Xiaoli saw that Gu Huai's eyes became brighter. She just couldn't bear the anger of her sister-in-law and ran out, but she didn't expect to meet her second male lead!Sure enough, the aura of the protagonist of the novel is absolutely powerful, she said that she transmigrated as the heroine of the book "Concubine Concubine: Don't Chase the Prince", how could she be just a group of women and children in the small Xingbo Mansion? The life of the house fight!Sure enough, the emperor pays off!

She hurriedly straightened her hair. Although the heroine in the book became Prince Rui and Princess Rui in the end, judging from her current self, it was obvious that Gu Huai had more investment potential.She smiled slightly, "Young Master Gu, I didn't intend to deceive you with men's clothing last time, so don't blame me."

last time?Shang Zhi felt as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

Gu Huai smiled politely, "It's just for convenience when you're away from home, and I don't stick to it."

"Mr. Gu is so generous!" Qi Xiaoli smiled even brighter. This person is open-minded and has a broad vision. It really is the style he likes! "You two, this is..."

Gu Huai opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Shang Zhi interrupted directly, "What's the matter with you? It's urgent, please step aside."

Qi Xiaoli didn't expect Prince Rui to be so domineering and unreasonable, so she directly refuted it, "Hey, what does that girl have to do with you while chatting with Mr. Gu? It's urgent, please get out of the way!"

As the first prince of the Dashang Dynasty, Shang Zhi's usually straight face is not just good-looking.He frowned, and the dark guard who had disappeared for a long time suddenly appeared, and immediately grabbed Qi Xiaoli. As the woman's screams became smaller and smaller until they disappeared, the dark guard disappeared around the corner, Qi Xiaoli Li's figure also completely disappeared before their eyes.

Where did I meet this annoying person? Shang Zhi was about to ask Gu Huai when he heard Gu Huai speak in a very calm voice, "My lord and Miss Qi are destined for each other." It was rare to go back to Huajing and climb over the wall Can meet each other, is it really the reason for the husband and wife in the previous life?

"Isn't it someone you know? I'm really sorry, it was a bit noisy, so they sent them away on their own initiative." Shang Zhi held his breath, and the arc of his lips unconsciously flattened slightly.

Gu Huai was dumb, and after a long time, he suddenly let out a long breath, and patted Shang Zhi's shoulder, "It's pretty good, I also feel noisy."

"En." Shang Zhi held Gu Huai's hand, "Let's go."

"Well, see you tomorrow."

"See you in the future."

The scenery inside and outside Duke Wei's mansion is just right.

In such a beautiful day, for other people, these days can only be described as "blessings never come together, misfortunes never come singly".The Du family and many people who cling to or connect with the Du family feel that these days are simply the darkest days in their lives.

Concubine Hui has been downgraded all the way, and now she is down to Concubine Du. Although it sounds like there is still a concubine, it is completely different from the status of the actual power holder in the harem before.Not to mention that although there are no concubines above the rank of concubine in the current harem, among the concubines who are also concubines, the four concubines of Xian, Liang, Shu and De are the heads, and the current Concubine Du is not to mention among the four concubines. Occupying a place, now her status is not even comparable to that of ordinary concubines with titles.

Concubine Hui's loss of power directly caused a large number of relatives and disciples of the Du family to begin the most painful period of their careers as officials. Among them, more and more people were directly involved in the evaluation of the Ministry of Officials because they had not been promoted to official positions. They were kicked out of the yamen directly by colleagues who had disliked them before. In a short while, Dashang's entire officialdom was cleared up quite a bit.

No one guessed how concubine Du should be so distorted with hatred at this time, even the second room of Duke Wei's mansion, who was most implicated this time, was exhausted by more messy things that happened directly to her.

In the Duke of Wei's mansion, Gu Zhou, the Duke of Wei, was staring at the imperial decree, stunned for a long time.He is not very old, he is in his sixtieth year, and he is not the oldest among the senior officials of Dashang, but he is not the healthiest.People say that it's rare to be confused, and you can live a long life if you are confused.Sometimes Wei Guogong also wondered, could he be too confused and not live long?Otherwise, why does he always feel like his body is being hollowed out?

As the lord of a mansion, Duke Wei has always been indifferent in the mansion.Probably because of the character of the current emperor, the subjects of the Jianyuan Dynasty seemed to have lost their will to commit chaos since the fifth year of the Jianyuan Dynasty.Fortunately, Wei Guogong's character was able to stay in the position of Minister of the Ministry of War for so many years, and he has not been pushed down yet.

But now the emperor refuted the candidate he had requested to be the heir, and directly appointed another person... Could it be that he disliked himself?He couldn't get his head around and couldn't move. After thinking for a while, he went back to the original idea.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.

Although Wei Guogong didn't care about things in the mansion, he was very dignified and no one would bother him.At this time, he was still immersed in the mess he had stirred up. After reacting for a while, he heard the knock on the door. Seeing that the old housekeeper who had always been by his side was gone, he asked himself, "Who is it?"

"Grandfather, granddaughter Zhiyi."

Zhiyi?Duke Wei thought for a while, then remembered that it seemed to be Shiping's daughter, and said again, "Come in."

Gu Zhiyi nodded to the little maid behind her, and then went into Wei Guogong's study alone with a heart full of apprehension.As soon as she entered the room, she saw her grandfather holding a golden imperial decree in his hand, and she immediately guessed that it should be the imperial decree to enshrine the uncle as the son.

There were thousands of back and forth in her mind, and Sui heard from her mother that her grandfather had complied with her grandmother's request and asked her to make him the eldest son, but she still wasn't sure what was going on in her grandfather's mind, which she hadn't been close to since she was a child, so she was still cautious. He asked in a tone, "Grandfather, are you free now?"

I have always said that I have grandchildren but not sons, but Wei Guogong has never been close to his own grandchildren, let alone his sons. Now looking at his lively little granddaughter, he still finds it interesting, so he relaxes a little His face turned pale, and his tone was much gentler, "Zhiyi, grandpa has nothing important, what's the matter with you?"

"...Grandpa." Gu Zhiyi couldn't do it nervously. Her father and mother would definitely not agree to her decision, so she had no choice but to ask her grandfather, success or failure depended on it.She opened her mouth, trying to muster up the courage to speak in one breath, but was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

Wei Guogong raised his hand to signal Gu Zhiyi to pause, "Who is it?"

"Grandpa, granddaughter-in-law Dong'an." Anxi princess's still respectful voice came in from outside the door.

Hearing the voice of her sister-in-law, who had always been at odds with her, Gu Zhiyi's face turned stinky.

Duke Wei still remembered that his lucky grandson married Princess Dong'an, and he couldn't figure out why these juniors gathered together to find him today, so he let Princess Dong'an also come in.

The owner of Dong'an County is not the kind of person Gu Zhiyi who does things for fear of being discovered by others. She swaggered in with a few maidservants. As soon as she came in, she didn't wait for Wei Guogong to ask, and directly explained, "Grandpa, let me call you Grandpa, there are not many people in this house that I admire, but you are one of them. Dong'an has always envied a spectator temperament like you the most, but I can't bear my temper. If something happens to me, I have to end it myself. No spectators allowed."

She spoke so simply that no one on the field could guess her next move at all.I saw Dong'an Princess took a piece of paper directly on Wei Guogong's desk, "Grandpa, this is probably the last time Dong'an called your grandfather. Before we got engaged, I had a gentleman's agreement with Gu Yu and Mrs. Gu. Even if you have no children after marriage, you are not allowed to take a concubine for five years. We will see the truth after five years. Now that Gu Yu and I have been married for less than five years, Gu Yu and Mrs. Gu have found a woman in the world, and they are pregnant. There are five armors."

"Although Dong'an is not a man, he would like to have the attitude of a gentleman. He Lishu is here, and my father has agreed. Now that Gu Yu is still in prison, at the time of life and death, such trivial matters will not bother him. There is an old lady and Mrs. Gu, the second master, and Mrs. Gu, it is really difficult to communicate, so I have to talk to grandpa, grandpa, please trouble you, if Gu Yu can still come out, let him sign the reconciliation and leave."

Princess Dong'an's words came straight from the head, and she said it frankly, but it almost didn't make the Gu family's grandparents dumbfounded.This Princess Dong'an wants to make peace with Gu Yu!

Gu Zhiyi experienced the coldness and warmth of human relationships these days, and also understood the difference brought about by different status. She also thought that if her grandfather's side didn't work out, she would go and beg this noble sister-in-law!

Concubine Du's power is gone, if there is no Southwest Palace, what chance will Wei Guogong's second wife have to stand up!

But Princess Dong'an obviously didn't come to ask the two of them for their opinions. She stopped talking and gave no chance to refute or argue. She turned around and left the study neatly.

Wei Guogong slowly picked up the Heli book, and suddenly dropped it back on the desk, "What's wrong with Gu Yu!" He was dealing with the Ministry of Households for military expenses these days, and he didn't notice that there was another disturbance at home. What's the matter, it's rare to go back to the mansion, and the Princess Dong'an actually asks to make peace!

Seeing that her grandfather seemed to be angry, Gu Zhiyi unconsciously lowered her voice, and said slowly, "Brother... my brother was slandered by others, and now he is in the prison of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

"Who is slandering? Is it the prison of the Ministry of Internal Affairs?" Wei Guogong had already planned to go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to find people, but he did not expect to go to the prison of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Could it be that the one who was slandered was something that moved the emperor?

Gu Zhiyi picked and picked, and chose some ambiguous words to explain to the Weiguo bus. "...it was the fault of the gambling shop owner... and those greedy Zhongshu Sheren in the General Secretary who picked up more items from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the accumulation of small things became big. These people are also addicted to gambling. Fang Fang lost all the money. The fifth elder brother added fuel to the matter and revealed it to His Majesty, which caused my brother to go to jail innocently."

"Gu Huai?" Wei Guogong will never forget his grandson, who has always been praised by his colleagues for his talent, he frowned, "Why did he frame Gu Yu?"

"Grandpa, isn't this obvious?" Gu Zhiyi thought of her elder brother who was suffering from prison, and thought of the second room who was defeated in an instant, and suddenly felt sad, and knelt down to Duke Wei, "Grandpa, granddaughter begging One thing for you, will you promise me?"

Wei Guogong was taken aback, "Zhiyi, why are you doing this? The ground is getting cooler, what's the matter, grandpa just agree!"

"Grandpa, did you agree?" Gu Zhiyi didn't expect it to be so easy, and her eyes lit up all of a sudden. "You are not allowed to go back on your word!"

"Naturally, get up and tell me what's going on?"

"Grandpa, will the Empress Dowager hold a birthday banquet in a few days?"

Duke Wei nodded, and suddenly remembered that His Majesty had not decreed who would handle this matter.

Gu Zhiyi continued, "Grandpa, it would be great for you to take me into the palace to attend the birthday banquet. My granddaughter hasn't been to the palace yet, so I want to see her."

"What's so difficult about it?" Wei Guogong didn't expect it to be such a small request, so he agreed very neatly.Gu Zhiyi was so happy that the tears in the corners of her eyes just now went back again, and she and Wei Guogong had another conversation, and then happily jumped out of Wei Guogong's study.

Leaving Wei Guogong in the study, he picked up the imperial decree and read it several times, and then picked up the Heli book of Princess Dong'an, with a very complicated look on his face.
