That day, Chu Yue followed Jian Yu until he reached the gazebo halfway up the mountain. Jian Yu walked down the gazebo wrapped in sable fur. The ice balls were so cold that they seemed to be breathing a slight chill.

Jian Yu stood by the pool for a long time, while Chu Yue stood behind him and watched.

As if bewildered, it made him feel that if he could look at this person's back for a long time, it would be a kind of enjoyment in the world.

Jian Yu stared at the water surface with ignorant eyes, then suddenly knelt down and reached out to touch it.

Chu Yue frowned, and before he could think about it, he immediately stepped forward and pulled him up. Now that the water is cold to the bone, what should he do if he is frozen.

Jian Yu was startled and turned her head to look at him, her small face sank immediately, she broke free from the man's restraint silently, turned and walked down the mountain.

Chu Yue was in a good mood, followed immediately, and asked with a smile: "I like this place very much? Then we will live here from now on, okay? It's more fun here in summer."

Jian Yu didn't speak, but suddenly stopped and turned to look at him, his eyes were so confused that it was heartbreaking.

Chu Yue was stunned for a moment, feeling an inexplicable pain in his heart, and asked with a frown, "What's wrong?"

Jian Yu shook his head, then looked at the pool behind him, and let out a deep breath.

Chu Yue also looked at the pool and found that there was nothing special, so he grabbed Jian Yu's hand and said, "Okay, it's cold outside, let's go back."

Jian Yu gritted his teeth and wanted to withdraw his hand in disgust, but Chu Yue held on tightly, Jian Yu struggled a few times, and immediately shouted in a deep voice: "If you dare to move again, I will beat you!!!"

Jian Yu was frightened by him and looked at him in fear.

Chu Yue gave a ruffian smile, and contentedly, he forcibly walked down the mountain hand in hand.

The eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is the birthday of Emperor Desheng, and the emperor's birthday banquet is naturally a feast for civil and military officials, royal family members, and everyone enjoys the joy.

In the Jiuhua Palace, there was a large rice dumpling banquet, with as many as [-] tables stretching mightily, with majestic carved walls, tripods of jade and jade stones, and the grand occasion was unprecedented.

Emperor Desheng and the empress sat in the upper seat, and the other concubines who attended sat on the side. Concubine Li was the head of all concubines, followed by Ding Zhaoyi.

Since Gu Youning and Chu Yu came back, it was the first time for Du Ronger to see Gu Youning, and she felt relieved when she saw him sitting peacefully beside King Wen.

Gu Youning also looked at her, nodded slightly, and the two secretly exchanged a look, then cautiously did not meet each other.

The empress sat beside Emperor Desheng, dressed in a bright yellow costume, she was very noble, but her complexion was a bit uneasy, the prince was still in trouble, but she had nothing to do, and occasionally said a few words in front of the emperor to let the prince go. If you come out, you will be reprimanded, and now looking at King Wen, the third prince and the seventh prince are present, especially King Wen is in high spirits, and all the officials in the court are treating each other with courtesy, obviously they have already treated him as a prince .

She clenched her teeth resentfully, and tightly clenched her fingers in the wide sleeves.

At the beginning, so many assassins were sent out, and he was shot down from the cliff with countless casualties, but he came back in good condition, and even made the queen grit her silver teeth. King Wen did not report the third prince in front of the emperor. , it has been rumored that they have formed an alliance. Originally, King Wen is already difficult enough to deal with, but here comes the third prince! ! ! ! !

She has been ups and downs in the harem for half her life, from the concubine of the Prince De's mansion to the queen step by step. After the eldest son died, she supported the second son to become the prince. Let the prince completely lose power.

The officials in the court seem to have studied hard for ten years, but in fact, in order to save their lives, they fell faster than the grass on the wall. She squinted and glanced at the three princes sitting in the hall, secretly thinking in her heart that she must Let the prince come out quickly.

Just thinking about the congratulatory gifts from the royal family and relatives, what King Wen sent was a calligraphy and painting by a famous artist that had been lost for a long time in the previous dynasty, what the young prince Jun gave was a sapphire carved longevity vase, and the other three princes and seven princes gave It's also good intentions.

The queen looked at the emperor's face. At this time, Emperor Desheng was a little drunk, and he seemed to be in a good mood, so he hurriedly sent someone to bring the prince's congratulatory gift. The handwriting of the late First Prince, in fact, although the princes were as close as flesh and blood, they were all taught by a gentleman when they were in the study, but they had different personalities and the handwriting was also different.

The prince's font is strong, while Wen Wang is clear and refined, the third prince is restrained, the seventh prince is free and easy, and the font of the eldest prince is a bit like that of Emperor Desheng, because the eldest prince is the first son of Emperor Desheng. He was taught by his side, even writing was taught by De Shengdi.

Emperor Desheng flipped through the scriptures a few times, frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something, the queen watched carefully from the side, and then said: "Chu Xiao copied it in the ancestral temple and specially sent it out to celebrate the emperor's birthday. The child also said that he knew that he had offended his father, so he wanted to wish his father a long life and prosperity, and he didn't know if his father was still angry with him, so he didn't want to accept it."

Emperor De Sheng looked down at the words on the paper, pondered for a while, then raised his head and said calmly: "Chu Xiao has a heart."

The queen was taken aback, but she couldn't figure out what Emperor De Sheng meant, so she could only reply dryly: "Yes... yes."

After Emperor De Sheng said it, he stopped talking about it. Just as the sound of silk and bamboo sounded during the banquet, a group of dancing girls and singers with fluttering veils came in, singing and dancing around the audience, and the atmosphere became warm immediately. I'm already a little drunk, but I feel sorry for these daughters' families, and those who are cold in the twelfth lunar month have to wear cicada wings.

Gu Youning and Chu Yu sat in the next seat of the hall, headed by Prince Ming, followed by King Wen, and then Prince Jun Chuheng. These are the three princes of Dazhao now, and sitting opposite the two princes who have not yet been crowned kings, naturally they are the three princes. The prince and the seventh prince.

The seventh prince was still a little sluggishly leaning on his seat to drink, but he was a little absent-minded. The third prince had just drank alone, and then looked up at Gu Youning who was facing him. In the current situation, when everyone is rushing to flatter King Wen and King Jun, he appears to be very depressed, no matter in terms of spirit or situation.

Chu Yu was afraid that Gu Youning would be bored, so he lied that he had drunk too much, and took the princess out to sober up.

On such occasions, he can drink with others to reminisce about the old days, but although Gu Youning is Princess Wen, as a man, he can't sit in the crowd of women, and it's not easy to talk to men, so taking him out for a walk will not be too boring .

As soon as the two of them walked out of the hall, the biting winter wind blew past. Chu Yu hurriedly took the sable fur from Chenggui's hand and put it on Gu Youning, saying, "I think the banquet will be over after a while."

Gu Youning nodded, and just about to open her mouth to speak, she saw the third prince and the seventh prince also coming out of the palace, and her expression darkened immediately, it's really a narrow road for enemies.

Seeing his face change slightly, Chu Yu asked with concern: "What's wrong? But it's cold?"

Gu Youning smiled coolly, and raised her chin behind him.

Chu Yu was puzzled, and then turned his head to look, just in time, those two people had already stepped forward, and his face turned cold.

The Seventh Prince took the lead in looking provocatively at the eye-catching luxurious sable fur on Gu Youning, and said with a sarcastic smile: "Brother Sixth Prince is really able to spend a lot of money for the princess, let me see it, I really admire it, I hope that in the future It would be nice to have a male concubine like a princess by my side."

This couldn't be more straightforward. Comparing Gu Youning to a male concubine and actress, Chu Yu was so anxious that he raised his hand and was about to hit Chu Yue's young and handsome face, but Gu Youning stopped him and said, "You care about what to do with him!" What."

Chu Yu looked down at him, knowing that he was afraid that Chu Yue would go back and embarrass Jian Yu, so he had no choice but to give up, glaring at Chu Yue fiercely, and recorded this hatred in his heart.

Gu Youning was afraid that he would be reckless, so she stopped him and protected him behind her, her bright eyes slowly scanning the two people in front of her.

The third prince looked at him expressionlessly, but his eyes were dim and unclear, while the seventh prince still smiled wildly. Gu Youning squinted his eyes and hooked the corners of his lips, fixed his eyes on the seventh prince, and then let go of Chu Yu. Walk towards him slowly.

In winter, the imperial palace has no flowers and decorations, and everything is too solemn and solemn. Now it is evening, the moon is in the sky, and the palace lanterns are lit on both sides of the long street.

Princess Wen was wearing a snow-white and luxurious sable fur, and the evening wind blew up her hem a little. She was wearing a red dress inside, reflecting the palace lanterns as bright red as blood, and the hair on his forehead was also blown by the evening wind, revealing a smooth forehead. A pair of bright eyes are as bright as stars, just like this, slowly, slowly walking towards him in the endless cold of the winter night, with a strange and chilling smile on the corner of his mouth.

There was another agile sound of silk and bamboo in Jiuhua Palace, Chu Yue stared nervously at Gu Youning, waiting for him to attack, his expression was in a trance for a while, and suddenly he smelled a faint fragrance, but suddenly rushed The mouth and nose, invisible and fearless, make people feel at a loss.

He suddenly covered his heart and took a step back. Chu Cheng beside him was startled and quickly stepped forward to support him. While watching Gu Youning, he stopped two steps away from them and looked at him with a teasing face. .

Chu Yue closed his eyes and shook his head, only to feel that the pain in his heart was unbearable for a moment, and then he became dizzy for a while.

"What's wrong with you, you really have such an ugly face..." Chu Cheng supported Chu Yue, seeing that he was so uncomfortable that he couldn't speak, he couldn't help but look up at Gu Youning: "What did you do to him?"

Gu Youning's eyes were as cold as nine feet of ice, but his smile deepened, and he said lightly, "I can't understand what the third prince is talking about. There are so many people here, but I haven't done anything."

Chu Cheng frowned, and he couldn't think of a reason. At this moment, Chu Yue took a few tight breaths, slowly calmed down the oppressive pain in his chest, and raised his head and said, "Third brother, I'm fine, don't worry, it might be just now Too much wine."

Chu Cheng looked at him worriedly: "Really?"

Chu Yue frowned and nodded, then looked up at Gu Youning.

Gu Youning chuckled, looked at Chu Yue with deep meaning in his eyes, with a haughty expression as if he was a king standing above the nine heavens, just for a moment, he withdrew his smile, turned around and retreated to Chu Yu, Chu Yu smiled at him, hugged him Holding his shoulder, he looked at the two men contemptuously, turned around and left.

Chu Cheng and Chu Yue still stood where they were, watching Gu Youning follow Chu Yu two steps away, then suddenly turned their heads and smiled brightly at him.

How to describe this smile?

Like a ghost in the dark night, he is dressed in red and has a beautiful face. He smiles at you, and he is beautiful, but it is too gloomy, and his eyes are full of malice and ominousness.

Looking at the backs of Gu Youning and Chu Yu, Chu Cheng frowned tightly, and saw that Chu Yue's face was really ugly, so he hurriedly called someone to complain to Emperor Desheng, and insisted on taking Chu Yue back to the prince's mansion first, and then The imperial doctor was sent to see it.

Chu Yue was in a hurry to leave the city, saying that he didn't need to see the imperial physician, but Chu Cheng was worried, he needed the imperial physician to check his pulse.

After taking the pulse, the imperial doctor said: "The pulse condition of His Majesty Seventh Prince is slightly unstable, it seems that there is a symptom of insufficiency."

"Nonsense!!!!" Chu Yue scolded, although he was really uncomfortable when he was in the palace just now, but now he has recovered, and he was anxious to leave the palace again, so he said: "You imperial doctor, I have been strong and strong since I was a child. , where does the deficiency come from?"

In fact, although the imperial doctor took the pulse, he didn't get any results. Some palpitations were abnormal, and the pulse condition was ups and downs, which was indeed different from common sense, but he couldn't say anything. In response to the prince's reprimand, he quickly said: "This insufficiency is not brought from the womb, it may also be the old wound left by the arrow wound of His Royal Highness that day, just take good care of it."

"Just take good care of it?" Chu Cheng still asked worriedly.

"Return to the Third Highness, that's right"

Chu Cheng glanced at the anxious Chu Yue, sighed helplessly, and then said, "Then, the imperial physician may prescribe a prescription."

"Yes, the officer will go immediately."

in the palace.

Chu Yu and Gu Youning walked together slowly under the centuries-old city wall of the imperial city. In front Chenggui led a few servants to hold the palace lanterns. Gu Youning leaned in Chu Yu's arms with a little smile on his lips. Directly next to the safety button, reflecting the moonlight and palace lanterns, I saw that there was an exquisite and unique incense burner hanging under the safety button, about the size of a small wine cup.

"Who would know that there are cup worms that can kill people, and medicinal herbs that can make cup worms go crazy?"

Gu Youning smiled and held the Ping An button in his palm, Chu Yu also smiled, hugged him a little tighter, lowered his head and kissed his hair, and asked softly, "Is it cold?"

Gu Youning didn't speak, but just shrank into his arms affectionately.
