Princess, he is rich enough to rival the country

No wonder Qin Hao would say such a thing.

After all, in a country under the feudal system like Tianqi Kingdom, when seeing a strange new gadget, the first reaction of most people is to dedicate it to the emperor.

Not to mention that Prince Li's Mansion is still such a sensitive existence.

If someone with a heart uses this point to make a fuss, saying that there is something in Prince Li's mansion that is not even in the palace, and acting presumptuously like this, I am afraid that there is something wrong.

The emperor might not suspect anything about Prince Li's mansion because of such a small thing, but people's dissatisfaction is accumulated from every little thing.

It is inevitable that when Prince Li's mansion makes mistakes in the future, the emperor will think of this matter and feel dissatisfied in his heart.

Although Gu Yanshu is not an ancient person, he is not someone who does not understand these rules:

"Although firing glass is more complicated than porcelain, it is not an extremely difficult task. Since it is going to be given to the emperor, it is natural that we can't just give it a teacup. Taoran Kiln has already made special preparations."

Upon hearing this, Qin Hao's eyes lit up immediately:

"Since this is the case, then my brother..."

However, Qin Hao hadn't finished speaking when he heard the sound of teacup lids colliding behind him.

Looking around, he happened to see Qin Lu raising his hand to drink tea.

Just when Qin Hao thought that his perception was wrong, and was about to continue what he just said, he raised his eyes and met the unclear eyes of his third brother.

Immediately, Qin Hao trembled, and the words of refusal didn't even have time to pass through his brain, so he blurted out:

"No need, my brother thought about it for a while. There is nothing useful to take this teacup back. I'd better wait for the Taoran kiln to produce more, and then I will ask my sister-in-law for it."

"That's fine, tea cups are really not very useful."

Gu Yanshu nodded, no longer insisting.

Qin Hao, on the other hand, looked at Qin Lu who was drinking tea with downcast eyes, and let out a sigh of relief.

Thinking of Brother Sanhuang's eyes just now, and feeling that this study is not a place to stay for a long time, he quickly got up and cupped his hands at Gu Yanshu:

"In this way, I will make an agreement with Sister-in-law Sanhuang. At that time, I will come to ask Sister-in-law Sanhuang to ask for it. It is not too early now, and I suddenly realize that there are still some trivial matters in the house that have not been dealt with, so I will not disturb the emperor's brother." Sister-in-law, my brother will take my leave first."

After finishing speaking, Qin Hao didn't even have time to wait for Gu Yanshu's answer, so he turned around and left the study in a hurry. His back, no matter how you looked at it, seemed to be in a state of desperation.

And the appearance of fleeing.

Gu Yanshu didn't make a sound to persuade Qin Hao to stay, but after Qin Hao left, he cast a reproachful glance at Qin Lu who was sitting beside him:

"Look at you scaring the Fifth Emperor."

Although Qin Lu's actions just now were concealed, he didn't hide it too much, and naturally he didn't escape Gu Yanshu's eyes.

Who knew that Qin Lu put down the teacup in his hand casually, and asked in a flat tone:

"When did this king scare him?"

That confident look, if Gu Yanshu hadn't been sure that he had read correctly just now, he would really have thought that he had wronged this person.

Of course, Gu Yanshu didn't necessarily want to compete with Qin Lu in such trivial matters, but he was more concerned about another matter:

"It's just a teacup. Brother Wu Huang wants to give it to him. Why is the prince still reluctant?"

This time, Qin Lu did not refute Gu Yanshu's words, but raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Yanshu lightly:

"Since the princess entered the mansion, have you ever given me any gifts?"

Gu Yanshu never thought that Qin Lu would scare Qin Hao because of such a thing.

While dumbfounded, he also felt like laughing.

But after seeing Qin Lu's eyes, at least he suppressed the smile that had welled up on his lips.

It's just that the upward arc of the corners of his lips still revealed his inner thoughts.

Seeing that Qin Lu kept staring at him, as if he must make him say something ugly, Gu Yanshu opened his mouth slightly:

"My lord's words are a bit wronged. Didn't I just give 60 taels of silver notes to my lord a few days ago?"

"That doesn't count," Qin Lu refuted Gu Yanshu's answer without thinking, "That's the salary that the princess gave me."

Leaving aside the fact that the 60 taels was the wages that Gu Yanshu asked him to go to the Changle Gambling Shop to collect money, how can a silver ticket be compared with an item?

The silver ticket seemed to be for Qin Lu, but it was better to say that it was for the soldiers behind Qin Lu who were waiting to open their mouths to eat.

Even if Qin Lu wanted to keep this money, he couldn't keep it.

But if it was a small gadget like a glass teacup, Qin Lu could always keep it in his collection.

His princess has never even given him a decent gift, and she still wants to give gifts to other men first?

Qin Lu is not a dead person, how could he allow such a thing to happen under his nose?

Gu Yanshu also knew that the 60 taels was really not a gift from him to Qin Lu if one looked into it carefully.

But other than that, Gu Yanshu did not send anything to Qin Lu.

Thinking about how he wanted to give this glass teacup to Qin Hao just now, he didn't think about Qin Lu's actions at all.

Gu Yanshu really felt a little guilty in his heart.

"Cough, this is..."

Just when Gu Yanshu was about to admit his mistake, he found that Qin Lu's eyes had changed at some point.

The deep meaning and a hint of danger that Gu Yanshu was very familiar with immediately set off alarm bells in Gu Yanshu's mind, and the confession that had reached his lips immediately turned a corner:

"How can the prince blame me for this kind of thing?"

"Oh?" Qin Lu narrowed his eyes, looking at Gu Yanshu, his eyes became darker and darker.

"The prince should find the reason from himself. No matter whether the 60 taels is a gift or wages for the prince, I will give it anyway! Where is the prince? Did you give me anything?"

Speaking of the latter, Gu Yanshu became more and more confident, and finally looked at Qin Lu with the same questioning eyes, as if he would not give up until he got an explanation.

Qin Lu was really stunned by Gu Yanshu's words, and immediately fell into deep thought.

Noticing the change in Qin Lu's eyes, Gu Yanshu rubbed his waist indiscriminately.

While I was lucky to have escaped, I did not forget to silently give a thumbs up to the subordinate in my previous life who liked to whisper gossip in my ear:

If it weren't for this assistant who kept whispering in his ear some tricks to survive in love, Gu Yanshu would never have thought of the method of repaying him with the same way.

Didn't Qin Lu blame him for not giving a gift?

Now he wants to see what Qin Lu has to say!

Just when Gu Yanshu thought that Qin Lu would also be silenced by him, Qin Lu had recovered from his contemplation.

"This matter is my negligence."

While speaking, Qin Lu stood up from the chair, turned around and walked to a bookshelf not far behind him.

Then Gu Yanshu saw that Qin Lu took down a brocade box from some place on the bookshelf and put it in front of him.

"Give it to me?" Gu Yanshu lowered his eyes and guessed roughly from the size of the brocade box that there should be items like jade pendants inside.

"En." Qin Lu nodded lightly, and before Gu Yanshu could make a move, he reached out and opened the brocade box, revealing the items stored inside.

As Gu Yanshu guessed, what was placed in the brocade box was a piece of jade pendant.

Gu Yanshu reached out, took the jade pendant out of the brocade box, and put it in his hand for observation.

jade pendant material

Although it is good, it is not good, at least the jade pendant made of such material does not fit Qin Lu's identity.

But from the current state of this jade pendant and the brocade box that houses it, it can be seen that Qin Lu attaches great importance to it.

Under the jade pendant, there is also a tassel tassel made by hand. The tassel is very beautiful. It can be seen that the person who tied this tassel is skillful.

It's just that the wire material of this tassel is a little worn out, presumably this jade pendant has been preserved in Qin Lu's hands for a long time.

"This piece of jade pendant is my concubine..."

As if seeing what Gu Yanshu was thinking, Qin Lu explained in a low voice, then paused, as if he was afraid that Gu Yanshu would make a mistake, and added:

"My king is talking about my biological mother, who gave it to me when I was young. I have no eyes on the battlefield. I am afraid that I will accidentally damage it, so I put it away."

Although Qin Lu's biological mother did not have a high status during her lifetime, after Qin Lu's outstanding achievements over the years, she was posthumously conferred the title of Imperial Concubine Jingxian by the emperor.

Qin Lu's "mother concubine" was not wrong.

After hearing the origin of this jade pendant, Gu Yanshu flicked the jade pendant's fingers and paused:

"Since it was left to the prince by the concubine mother, is it appropriate for the prince to give it to me now?"

"There is nothing inappropriate. When the concubine gave this jade pendant to the king, she said that if she meets someone who wants to spend the rest of her life with him, she will give this jade pendant to him."

Qin Lu reached out and stroked the tassels falling under the jade pendant, as if recalling something:

"On the day of the wedding, this king should give it to you, but..."

Just what, Qin Lu didn't say clearly, but Gu Yanshu knew what Qin Lu meant when he didn't finish his sentence.

The lowered eyes focused on this piece of jade pendant which was not considered expensive again, and smiled softly:

"My lord gave me this jade pendant today, if you want to go back in the future, don't blame me for not giving it back."

"No, since it's given to you, it's yours."

Qin Lu replied without thinking, and looked at the tassel again:

"It's just that the tassels are a bit old. If the princess wants to wear them, I'm afraid I have to make a new tassel."

"Is this tassel made by my concubine?"

Qin Lu reached out to touch the tassel repeatedly, Gu Yanshu inevitably had such a guess in his heart.

"No, it was made up by an old man in the palace."

While Qin Lu denied Gu Yanshu's guess, he did not forget to give him an answer:

"At the time when the mother and concubine's bedroom was flooded, nothing was left behind. It's just that the weaving method of the tassels is

The concubine mother thought of it first. "

Hearing this, Gu Yanshu understood in his heart.

When Imperial Concubine Jingxian left, Qin Lu was only three years old.

Children can't distinguish their inner feelings, probably because they think that the tassels that fall on the jade pendant in the same way can be regarded as made by their mothers.

When I grew up, although I understood the difference between the two, I still kept the tassel as a thought.

Gu Yanshu looked at the tassel and didn't know what to say for a while.

It seems that nothing can heal the wound in Qin Lu's heart when he was a child.

And Gu Yanshu looked straight at the appearance of the tassel, which fell into Qin Lu's eyes, and it was directly understood as another meaning:

"If the princess likes this style, change it to the Japanese king and enter the palace, and let the palace people give the princess a label."

When Qin Lu said this, his tone was calm, and he knew that he had already walked out of the fog of childhood.

This kind of reaction seems that Gu Yanshu was thinking too much just now.

Of course Gu Yanshu also realized this, and looked away from the tassel:

"It looks really exquisite. If the lord is free, let the palace servants mark one for me."

"Okay." Qin Lu didn't doubt that he was there, and nodded in agreement.

At this time, Gu Yanshu touched the pattern on the jade pendant, and finally realized something was wrong:

"The jade pendant that the concubine mother gave to the prince, how did you carve an elk?"

No wonder Gu Yanshu would ask such a question.

After all, generally speaking, the jade pendant given by the mother to the child is either to protect the child's safety, and some patterns similar to auspicious clouds will be carved on it.

Or it represents the mother's expectation for the child, and some patterns of fish jumping over the dragon's gate will be carved.

Even animals, most of them are like bats, which are homophonic for "Fu", or mythical beasts like unicorns.

No matter how you look at it, you shouldn't carve an elk on it.

However, Qin Lu, who always answered Gu Yanshu's questions, remained silent this time.

Gu Yanshu, who had waited for a long time without an answer, finally realized something was wrong, and raised his eyes to look at Qin Lu.

Who knew that Qin Lu, who had always had a frosty face, seemed to have slightly pink ears at this moment.

This is……

Blushed?

Realizing this, Gu Yanshu became even more curious:

"My lord?"

"Cough...it's my king's nickname."

Perhaps it was because Gu Yanshu's star-like eyes were too intoxicating, after a moment of silence, Qin Lu still gave Gu Yanshu the answer.

on

After finishing speaking, the pink color on Qin Lu's ears seemed to be brighter than before.

"Nick name?" Gu Yanshu was stunned for a while.

In Tianqi Kingdom, all the princes except the crown prince will be given Biaozi.

But because the position of the East Palace of Tianqi Kingdom is vacant now, none of the princes have their names, and neither does Qin Lu.

Since there is no table name, where did the nickname come from?

But after looking down and seeing the cute elk on the jade pendant, Gu Yanshu seemed to understand something:

"Kill...a deer?"

"Cough!" As soon as Gu Yanshu finished speaking, Qin Lu coughed in a low voice.

Looking up at the color of his prince's earlobe from light to dark, Gu Yanshu, who thought he had guessed wrong, didn't understand anything?

While secretly happy in my heart, I couldn't help but tease:

"Little deer?"

"Shut up!" Qin Lu glanced coldly and reprimanded in a low voice.

If other people saw Qin Lu's eyes at this time, they would be so frightened that their legs went limp.

However, as one of the parties involved, Gu Yanshu not only did not feel the slightest fear, but even a picture of an innocent elk blinking its big watery eyes appeared in his mind.

Unable to hold back for a moment, he called again in a low voice:

"Little deer?"

"If you don't want the jade pendant, return it to me!"

Qin Lu didn't expect that Gu Yanshu would dare to call out a second time, and reached out to take the jade pendant back.

At the same time, I feel a little regretful, there are so many things that can be given away, why did I take out this jade pendant?

"No! The prince has already said that he gave it to me, but he still wants to go back on his word!"

Qin Lu moved quickly, and Gu Yanshu didn't move too slowly. He stretched out his hand and stuffed the jade pendant into his bosom. After putting the jade pendant away, Gu Yanshu did not forget to provocate:

"It doesn't look like a good deer at first glance!"

"This king is not a good deer." Qin Lu stopped grabbing the jade pendant, turned into anger from embarrassment, and stared straight at Gu Yanshu with a pair of deep eyes, "Don't the princess like it too?"

As soon as he saw Qin Lu's eyes, Gu Yanshu, who had healed the scar and forgot the pain, and was blinded by the elk, finally thought of the tragic consequences of provoking Qin Lu during the wedding ceremony.

Dang even felt apprehensive, ready to confess directly, and began to change the subject abruptly:

"Ahem, since the prince gave me the jade pendant, I should also give him a gift, so..."

Although Gu Yanshu's reaction was quick enough, it was already too late.

Qin Lu stretched out his long arms, and without even giving Gu Yanshu a chance to escape, he directly grabbed Gu Yanshu into his arms:

"No need, I will take it myself!"

Outside the door, Zhi Ge, who was just about to enter the door to report the progress of the matter to Qin Lu, paused, and then quickly swept back.

But in the blink of an eye, Zhi Ge had already left the study.

Looking at the study room where the doors and windows were closed in just a moment, Zhi Ge quietly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart:

Since the prince got married, the reaction ability of their subordinates has been tested more and more!
