All his life

Gu Jingyan, who had been sitting on the high position without moving, turned his head after hearing Dongcui's answer, and was finally willing to look Dongcui squarely.

Seeing Dongcui crying for a while, she moved and bent down after a while, holding a solid-color handkerchief that she picked up from the table in her hand, and gently wiped away the continuous tears on Dongcui's face.

"Then you are not afraid that Bengong will kill your family too?"

"Princess, concubine, I can do whatever you want me to do, including my life, and I can die, but please let my family go, Dongcui, please, please!"

After seeing Gu Jingyan at the top say that sentence with a calm expression, Dong Cui suddenly opened her eyes wide, and couldn't bear the big tears streaming down her eyes, and begged for mercy.

Let Gu Jingyan pinch his face, wipe the smooth cloth around his cheeks, but he didn't reach out to stop him, just staring at the person above.

"Didn't you come here to be a maid after being sold by your family when you were young? If so, why do you still protect your family like this?"

"That's because of their helplessness..."

When Dong Cui heard it, her father sat on the ground weakly, spoke softly, and then looked up at Gu Jingyan again.

"Princess, Dong Cui please! Let my family go, let me die..."

"Is what you said true?"

"Are you going to regret it?"

"What Dongcui said is true, and I don't regret it, as long as you let my family go..."

On this day, in this sealed room, Gu Jingyan was sitting, Dong Cui fell to the ground, Gu Jingyan watched expressionlessly, and Dong Cui was helpless with tears streaming down his face...

No one knows what happened in this room, even Duan Ce, who found out later, is half and a half guessed by himself.

"My concubine has seen the princess before!"

"My concubine has seen the princess before!"

In the afternoon, the weather was fine, and Gu Jingyan, who was tired of staying in the house again, took Dong Cui and one or two servant girls to the garden to breathe.

While Gu Jingyan was sitting quietly in the gazebo drinking tea, suddenly two beautifully dressed concubines were playing in the garden. When they saw Gu Jingyan sitting in the gazebo, they both came over.

"Don't be too polite, just sit down."

Gu Jingyan took a glance and knew who was coming, put down the quilt in his hand, picked up the book on the table again, without raising his head.

"Concubine thank you for giving me your seat."

The visitors were Concubine Li and Aunt Ying, a new concubine who entered the mansion. After Gu Jingyan spoke, the two held hands and squatted slightly to salute, and then sat opposite Gu Jingyan.

During this period, Concubine Li's face was full of smiles, but her eyes betrayed her mood. There was a bit of jealousy in her expression, but she was much better than Aunt Ying next to her.

I saw Aunt Ying showing disdain and saying thank you, but her tone and expression were full of arrogance, and she never took Gu Jingyan seriously, let alone now.

Speaking of Aunt Ying, she is also a new concubine that Duan Ce has recently brought in. It is said that her father and elder brother both hold relatively important official positions in the court, so she has developed her current arrogant and domineering personality.

Some time ago, Duan Ce night stayed in her attic, so she was so proud of her pet, no one looked down on her, and any concubine in this mansion would be proud of her head, which has been giving Gu Jing overtly and secretly It's embarrassing to say that he is just a poor harem man with a chest and no brains.

And now, Gu Jingyan didn't know why Concubine Li suddenly walked with Aunt Ying who was walking with her head up, but the purpose was not far from his guess.

"..."

The three of them sat together, and for a while, no one spoke to them, only the occasional sound of Gu Jingyan flipping a book, and Aunt Ying teasing her white cat.

Gu Jingyan likes tranquility, and it is not a problem to live alone for a day, so I am still at ease, but Gu Jingyan becomes more and more unbearable later on.

Just because Aunt Ying and Concubine Li, who were playing cat and teasingly, were in high spirits for a while, they began to walk around in the small pavilion, and then it turned into a play between the two.

"Meow!!!"

A sharp cat meow exploded in the quiet space, followed by a burst of screams, and all the bowls, plates and pastries on the table fell to the ground, making a loud, squeaking sound, even Gu Jingyan couldn't help it. Get pushed and fall.

"princess!!"

Dong Cui, who had been standing at the back, was paying attention to the situation in the gazebo, so she also saw the white cat suddenly jump up like crazy, and then when Gu Jingyan was caught by the white cat, she was startled and didn't respond, then fell But Dongcui also saw it, and kept catching up, but couldn't catch Gu Jingyan.

Gu Jingyan, who was reading a book, suddenly heard a sharp cat meow, and before he could raise his head to see the situation clearly, he felt a tingling pain on his left cheek, and he fell to the ground.

"Ah! Princess!! Are you okay, princess!"

Concubine Li and Aunt Ying, who were piled together, turned their heads and saw Gu Jingyan lying in the pile of filth, and ran over to help Gu Jingyan in dismay.

"You're blind!"

Gu Jingyan, who was supported by Dong Cui, slapped Aunt Ying who rushed over, the sound was so loud that everyone present dared not move.

"How dare you hit me?"
