◎"Your Highness...do you want to be a minister?"◎

Gu Yuan galloped all the way, and when he arrived in front of the Gu Mansion, He Liansheng's eyes were still in his mind.

"Master is back!"

The boy at the door hurried forward and took the reins from him with a happy face.

Today, when the list is published, the gate of Gu's mansion is full of people who admire the demeanor of the new champion.There was an endless stream of people visiting the door, and the scene was very lively, even the servants were rewarded a lot.

But Gu Yuan had no expression on his face, and walked straight in.

"Where's father?"

"Master is waiting for you in the study." The servant trotted after him, "Master Li is on vacation today, and he is accompanying Miss in the backyard right now, you..."

Gu Yuan stopped in his tracks.

"Is Tingyue feeling better?"

he said softly.

The voice slowed down a bit.

"Miss looks good today." The boy said, "Since Dr. Li came to visit that day, Miss's spirit is getting better and better."

Gu Yuan nodded, with a slight smile on his face.

But soon, he remembered something, and the smile faded away, replaced by a silent indifference.

At the end of the corridor, he paused, and then walked into the study.

"Father." He said softly, "You are looking for me."

In front of the desk, the man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes and deep face raised his eyes and looked at his most proud child in front of him.

After a while, he sighed.

"You're tired." He said, "Sit first."

"The family will accompany you to prepare for the banquet tomorrow night, including clothing, precautions, etc. After a while, your mother will come over." He looked at Gu Yuan and said gently, "She has been back to her mother's house for a while, she must miss you very much , for a while, let Tingyue and Ali also go to the flower hall together."

Gu Yuan nodded: "Okay."

Looking at his calm face, Gu Yetan's eyes became more complicated. He tapped his fingers on the back of the chair, and finally opened his mouth: "I heard that His Royal Highness King Yu came back from the palace today."

Gu Yuan's fingers snapped.

Immediately, he said lightly: "Yes."

Gu Yetan hesitated to speak, but after a while, he sighed.

"Your Highness...you haven't reached the weak crown yet, but you're only eighteen, and His Majesty loves him again, so it's inevitable that you are a little arrogant. You..."

The corners of Gu Yuan's mouth twitched, but there was no smile in his eyes: "The Fifth Highness went to the border at the age of 12, and went to the battlefield to kill the enemy at the age of [-]. Is it just because the imperial concubine and empress are the only ones who are favored, so the treatment is so different? ?”

Gu Yetan choked for a moment.

After a while, he said, "He also... likes you."

"For liking, can you poison others?" Gu Yuan was silent for a moment, then said coldly, "I can't stand this liking."

Gu Yetan looked at him and rubbed his forehead. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

He couldn't be more clear in his heart.

With Prince Yu's temperament, this marriage will most likely end up as a joke in the end.

It's just that Yu Wang is good-looking and has a troublesome temper. When He Liansheng moved into the mansion, he was really worried that Gu Yuan was young and really fell into it.

In fact...

In the days before He Liansheng entered the palace, even though Gu Yuan was still polite and distant towards He Liansheng, Gu Yetan could tell that his son actually did not reject the approaching of He Liansheng.

especially--

The eunuch in the palace came over and told Gu Yuan that he could take the exam that day.

Everyone in the Gu residence was overjoyed, but Gu Yuan, looking at the eunuch, asked the following sentence:

"... Where's Your Highness?"

At that moment, Gu Yetan saw the worry that could hardly be concealed in his eyes.

That day, he stayed up all night.

Unexpectedly, when he was still hesitating between talking to Gu Yuan and worrying about disturbing his exam, something happened at home.

Gu Tingyue's illness had initially improved, but in recent days, it suddenly got worse.

At first they only thought it was a normal recurrence of the disease, until that day, the little girl had a bad stomach, vomiting and diarrhea, and invited the doctor to come and see.

The doctor felt the pulse, first prescribed some antidiarrheal medicine, and then found Gu Yetan alone.

Only then did he and Gu Yuan realize that someone had drugged the little girl's body.

"Although this medicine is not harmful to the body." The doctor said, "But the old man has checked the medicines that Miss is taking, and one of them is against it. Miss's condition has not improved, and I am afraid it is because of this reason."

Recalling Gu Yuan's pale face that day, Gu Yetan was still shocked.

They quickly checked all the possibilities, and finally found the source of the medicine——

Every time after Gu Tingyue finished drinking the medicine, she clamored for the crispy candies.

"Are you... sure?" he said.

Gu Yuan looked at him and pursed his lips.

"The servants who take care of Tingyue are rotated regularly. Even so, I have checked them one by one these days." He said softly, "No abnormality was found."

Not only each servant himself, but he even went to check the situation of their family members, fearing that they were threatened by someone to deliberately poison them.

only……

No.

The servants of the Gu family are all family servants, and in recent years, there have been no newcomers.

The Gu family has always treated their servants kindly, and the possibility of holding a grudge is very slim.

"Besides that." Gu Yuan smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes, "The only ones who have been taking care of Tingyue are me, Ali and... him."

He looked at Gu Yetan, his eyes were dark and bottomless, "Father, do you think it was me or Ali who put the medicine in the bag of crispy candies?"

He paused, his voice was barely audible: "And..."

"That bag of candy was originally bought by him for Ting Yue."

He still remembers that day.

The young man in crimson sat on the stone table in the yard, resting his forehead and watching the little girl in front of him drink medicine boredly.

"Drink." He said.

The little girl pursed her lips: "...bitter."

"Afraid of suffering." He laughed, "Why are you like me?"

"That's it." He said, "I'll give you candy after you finish drinking, okay?"

The little girl looked at him, her eyes lit up, and then dimmed again: "Brother...don't let him."

Her teeth are bad, Gu Yuan doesn't let her eat too much sweets.

"It's okay." He Liansheng said casually, "He still doesn't let me like him."

He paused, hooked the corner of his mouth, "Do you think I listened to him?"

Gu Yuan paused.

It wasn't until he regained his senses that he realized that he thought he would reject He Liansheng's self-talk as always, but at that time, the corners of his mouth were hooked.

There was a momentary freeze in the air.

It was festive and lively outside, the father and son sat opposite each other, but each had their own concerns.

After a while, the maid came and knocked on the door, saying that dinner was served, Madam asked the master and young master to come over, and Gu Yuan got up.

"By the way, my lord." The maid said again, "His Royal Highness Prince Yu has returned to the residence, Madam asked me to tell you."

Gu Yuan's footsteps stopped.

"Yuan'er." Gu Yetan called him.

"After all, he is the prince." He whispered, "For the imperial examination, the Holy Majesty can manipulate him, you don't want to..."

"I know." Gu Yuan raised the corner of his mouth, "I won't do anything to him."

His mind was full of what Liu Li had said to him after the incident happened.

"Brother, why would you ask 'why'? If it were His Royal Highness King Yu, then it would be very easy to explain." The slender young man sighed, and said softly, "The reason for finding a doctor for Tingyue is to please brother .”

"It's just... His Highness stayed at the mansion under the pretext of taking care of Tingyue. If Tingyue recovered soon, what kind of excuse would he use to continue staying?"

"Brother, Your Highness... I really did my best to stay by your side."

do you like it?

If he likes it but doesn't get a response, it will turn a person into such an abominable appearance, then it is indeed his fault.

it was his fault...

Then let him do it himself.

He hooked the corner of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes, and stepped out the door.

He Liansheng just walked in from the door, he seemed to be still dazed by Gu Yuanjiao's eyes when he saw Zheng Lai, his face was also a little pale, and his original strange eyes lost a little bit of energy.

However, the moment he saw Gu Yuan, his eyes lit up.

He hesitated for a moment, but still didn't come over, and said softly: "Brother Xingzhou, I..."

He seemed to want to say "I'm back", but he didn't know why Gu Yuan had such an attitude towards him, so he was a little hesitant, but Gu Yuan smiled at him.

"After leaving the palace for a few months, I came to Gu's mansion just after I left the palace." Gu Yuan said softly, "Your Highness...do you want to be a minister?"

He Liansheng was startled, and then, a tinge of red suddenly appeared in his ears.
