Clan House

Gu Lingmiao, the fifth daughter of the Gu family, entered the Chu Palace and became the concubine of Chu King Song Yi.When the news spread in Beijing, some people with troubles made up a romantic story about the handsome prince and the noble lady.Waiting for interested people to inquire again, they will know that the girl from the Gu family is not a direct descendant, and marrying the King of Chu is not a princess, but a court lady.

Now Gu Shangshu's face can't be held anymore. In order to make friends with the clan, he gave his granddaughter to the King of Chu as a concubine. Is this what Gu Minghui, a minister who claims to be clean, did?Not only was there a lot of discussion in the court, but also Empress Gu in the palace was not safe.Emperor Xuanqing sent Chen Jingxian to Kunning Palace, sent a dozen memorials to impeach Gu Minghui to the queen, took back the gold seal of the queen's treasure book, and let the imperial concubine take care of the six palaces temporarily.

The news was naturally sent by Song Yi, and Gu Minghui was so annoyed by his operation.Gu Shangshu didn't know about Gu Lingmiao's rebellion, he only knew that Song Yi had already taken the poison, and his current complacency would not last long.

When Song Jingxin came to Chu Palace again, he saw Gu Lingmiao serving Song Yi.Wang Yu, who never left his master in the past, finally had the posture of the palace's admiration, and began to take charge of the affairs of the palace, no longer the little tail behind Song Yi.Song Jingxin came to the door as a guest, and she had her own maid to serve and entertain her.Gu Lingmiao was dressed in the clothes of a maid in charge, and she only stood beside Song Yi, occasionally serving tea and water, and then using her green fingers to brush off Song Yi's hair.

Song Jingxin looked at these two people and wondered whether they were asleep or not.If it is said that they have slept, the atmosphere between the two looks a bit strange, it always feels like they are pretending to be intimate.If he didn't sleep, then with Song Yi's usually picky temper, a strange woman like Gu Lingmiao might not be able to get close to him.

It's probably because she hasn't slept, and she's just doing a play for the surname Gu.Besides, how old is the King of Chu now, and he dares to actually fight after reading those two spring books?He wasn't afraid of being laughed at by Gu Lingmiao!

Song Jingxin made up his mind, and stated the purpose of today's visit: "Uncle Huang, spring is here, and the sky is getting warmer. The peach blossoms on the edge of the small lake are all in bloom, so don't be stuck in the jade certificate all day, and go out together. Let's have a spring."

Seeing his sincerity, Song Yi thought about what he had done recently, and everything went according to plan in an orderly manner, as if it had nothing to do with the prince.What is the purpose of the prince's sudden and eager visit.Unable to think of any reason for the moment, Song Yi didn't force it, and asked, "But the road is closed? There are people on the edge of the small lake. If you go outing with great fanfare, won't it disturb the people?"

"Of course not, otherwise I wouldn't dare to call him the emperor's uncle. I'm in a hurry to eat in prison!" Song Jingxin laughed and said, "Does the emperor's uncle not know that you can have fun in a modest clothes?"

In the past, Song Yi always looked for a secluded place to conspire with others, and it was the first time that he simply enjoyed the scenery in the spring.When he came out after changing his clothes, he saw that Song Jingxin had already prepared the carriage frame, all the snacks and wine vessels were ready, and the servants who followed were all familiar faces, and there were enough people.Seeing that the crown prince was not accompanied by guards, he knew that he was skilled in martial arts, so he didn't call anyone. He just gave Wang Yu a few instructions, and then took Gu Lingmiao into the car.

In order to keep a low profile, Song Jingxin prepared a small carriage.Song Yi has not yet grown up, and his stature is thin, but after sitting with Song Jingxin, he looks affluent.Just adding another Gu Lingmiao made it a lot more crowded.

Song Jingxin got into the car first, and sat down firmly. He turned around and grabbed Song Yi's sleeve and pulled him to his side, then looked at Gu Lingmiao: "What are you following? Go outside!"

Seeing Song Jingxin waving away with his hand, Song Yi hurriedly grabbed his arm: "My favorite concubine, how can she show her face like those rude servants outside?"

"Why take her?" Song Jingxin muttered, looking at Song Yi, "Then let her take another carriage."

"Alright," Song Yi nodded, straightened his clothes and was about to stand up, "It's true that I've bothered the crown prince, so I and Ling Miao will take another car."

"Come back!" Song Jingxin grabbed Song Yi's sleeve and tugged, almost dragging him down. He hurriedly helped him up, and said apologetically, "Does a man have to take her with him when he is in spring?"

"It's boring to be a man, and more people are more lively," Song Yi said with a smile, "Besides, Lingmiao is highly skilled in martial arts, and can also serve as a guard."

Song Jingxin rolled her eyes at Gu Lingmiao, seeing her squatting cautiously, she still found it very unpleasant: "I'm not weak enough to need a woman's protection."

"But this king is very weak, so he needs a woman's protection." Song Yi raised his eyes to look at Song Jingxin, seeing that he was choked and speechless, he smiled suddenly.He elbowed the prince twice, moved his butt towards him, and beckoned Gu Lingmiao to sit beside him.

On the edge of the small lake, peach blossoms are burning and willow silk is flying.Seeing that the weather wasn't too hot, Song Jingxin asked his followers to find a semi-shady willow tree, spread out mats and futons, set out a cup of snacks and drinks, and then invited Song Yi to sit down.In a great country, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very angry.He only brought two futons, but there was no place for Gu Lingmiao to sit.Gu Lingmiao didn't care, and knelt down next to Song Yi's body, bowing her head to serve the master with vegetables.

Song Jingxin saw that Gu Lingmiao was preparing vegetables in a decent manner, and after a long time of searching, he only picked two pieces of bean paste cakes with a bland taste.His Highness the Crown Prince rolled up his sleeves, and personally picked up a piece of sesame cloud cake and handed it over, but the plate flew aside.

"Yunpian Cake is too sweet. Our Highness doesn't like it. His Highness the Crown Prince can use it for himself." Gu Lingmiao protected the plate and waited until Song Jingxin retracted the chopsticks before putting them back on the table.

Song Jingxin rolled his eyes at her, and saw that the sugar-steamed custard was still brewing in an ice bowl, dotted with almonds, it was the most refreshing and relieves greasy.

Gu Lingmiao saw the look in the prince's eyes, and before the other party could pick it up, she pushed her hands against it and said, "It's cold just looking at it, our Highness might get sick if we eat it, His Highness the Crown Prince can eat it himself!"

"Haha..." The two fought secretly, but Song Yi laughed out loud.Song Jingxin only said that Song Yi was laughing at him, and looked over in displeasure, but the King of Chu was looking at the direction behind him.

Hearing Hu music, Song Jingxin turned around to see, it turned out that a group of Hu people were singing and dancing by the lake.

"This is dance music from the west to celebrate His Majesty's future. His Majesty has become obsessed with cultivating immortals in recent years. The people in the teaching workshop were not sure about His Majesty's preferences, so they found a lot of new things and brought them to Beijing." It was Gu Ling who spoke. Miao, since she followed Song Yi, she was very conscientious and followed all the changes in Beijing. "My maidservant sees that they should also be here for a spring break. It's just a whim, singing and dancing to add to the fun."

"These barbarians have high noses and deep eyes, and they look unique." Song Yi took the wine that Gu Lingmiao handed over, pressed his thin lips against the rim of the cup, and then let go and asked, "Which one looks better to Lingmiao?"

"These young men are all very beautiful." Gu Lingmiao pursed her lips, "If you had to pick one, the one with the crooked hat must be stunning. It's just that his eyebrows and beard are curly, and he's sure to hurt people."

Song Jingxin was staring at Song Yi's wine glass, seeing him bring the rim of the glass to his lips again, but after hearing Gu Lingmiao's words, he suddenly smiled and put the wine glass down.His Royal Highness's mood fluctuated with the wine glass, so he almost grabbed it and drank it for him.

"A woman who sees different things and wants to change, I really can't see what the emperor's uncle likes her." His Highness the Crown Prince who hadn't had a drink said sourly, "I used to keep saying that I love me, and it's only been less than a month. The emperor's uncle. It is her ability to get into the eyes of the emperor's uncle, but she is still not satisfied, and she is in love with a barbarian boy."

"What the prince said, why does the king listen so bitterly?" Song Yi withdrew his eyes from watching the singing and dancing, squinted at Song Jingxin and said, "If the prince is reluctant to part with Ling Miao, it's too late now. Ling Miao is now the king's heart Love, I really can't send it back to the East Palace."

"Who cares about her!" Song Jingxin rolled her eyes at Gu Lingmiao, turned her face away, and looked at the wine in the glass again.

"My servant only follows His Highness the King of Chu, and doesn't go anywhere!" Gu Lingmiao hurriedly expressed his loyalty, "His Royal Highness doesn't care about this servant, but because he sees this servant climbing a high branch, and is jealous of this servant!"

Song Jingxin was very angry and was about to argue again, when suddenly he heard a commotion from the barbarian's place.He was angry, and felt that the voices in the world were very noisy, so he turned his head impatiently and wanted to reprimand him, but he was attracted by the things passed by the barbarians.

"It's such a big Nanzhu, is a music class so rich?" Gu Lingmiao asked in surprise, "Could it be a gift from a nobleman? But His Majesty's Qianqiu Festival has not yet come, and I haven't heard of any dignitaries in Beijing having a banquet..."

The owner of the Nanzhu is the handsome young man judged by Gu Lingmiao.The boy originally hid the things in his bosom, but because he had some wine with his companions, he took them out to show off under flattery.Unexpectedly, the youngsters in the music class all drank some wine, booed and passed it on, and then said a lot of jokes in nonsense, so they didn't return it to the young man.Nanzhu is precious, the young man was naturally anxious, so he pushed and shoved with his companions.

Song Yi's face was indifferent, seeing Song Jingxin frowned, he just didn't realize it: "The crown prince has brought someone, go over and persuade him, it's not good if someone gets hurt in a real fight."

"Ah, yes..." Song Jingxin calmed down, and hurriedly sent his subordinates to break up the fight.

There were some guards in the entourage of the Eastern Palace, and there were a lot of people, so the fight was quickly quelled.Those barbarians also winked, seeing Song Jingxin and his party dressed luxuriously and calling for servants, even if they were restrained, they greeted them with smiles.

Song Jingxin wanted to see the bead, even if someone offered the bead.He prevented Song Yi from being present, so he turned his back to check in case Song Yi saw it.But he didn't expect that beautiful boy to cry out, only thinking that it was a gift from the Queen.

"What kind of good thing is it that caused chaos." After a while, Song Yi had already left the table and came behind Song Jingxin, "This king will also take a look."

Song Jingxin held Nanzhu and stood still.

"I can't see it?" Song Yi raised his eyebrows, with a playful smile in his eyes.

Song Jingxin was stunned, and when she let go of her hand, Nanzhu was snatched by Song Yi.

"It still bears the seal of the Eastern Palace. Has your family been burglarized?"
