I heard you want to let me down

Gu Ruzhuo was really flustered at first, but he calmed down quickly: "The princess went to buy snacks last time, but this time she came to eat vegetarian food? I heard that the princess likes gold and jade, and she must open the way when she goes in and out. Looking at it now, it really does Rumors should not be trusted."

If she was wearing brocade clothes and a jade belt, and posing as a princess, Gu Ruzhuo would definitely not be able to spot her.Dressed in plain clothes, she appeared alone in the remote back mountain of Huguo Temple, not even a maidservant followed her.There are ghosts in his heart, and she may not go where the light will go.

The woman said coldly: "I was the one who asked you first."

Gu Ruzhuo said calmly: "Before sorting out the files, I saw that Master Lu Jiansu had received the word 'Wen Zhong' after his death. In the next 20 years, no one else could get such a posthumous title. I admired it in my heart, so I wanted to do it for Lu. My lord lights a lamp to show my heart. But I don’t know much about this, so I’m afraid there may be some taboos, so I ask in advance. If I accidentally disturb the princess’s phoenix body, I hope the princess will forgive me.”

The third princess had a very sharp expression at first, but she was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and gradually smiled: "Master Gu, you are really good at talking. I am in a good mood today, so I will remind you. This person wants to live a happy life." Long, don't be too curious."

Of course she didn't believe Gu Ruzhuo's words, but she, Mu Yunsheng, was willing to give him face for what he said today and the admiration for that person in his words.

"My minister respectfully obeys the princess' instruction."

When Gu Ruzhuo lowered his head, he noticed something stuck to the heel of the third princess.

After meeting the third princess at the dim sum shop that day, Gu Ruzhuo also paid attention to her news.

The third princess is a controversial figure among the ruling and opposition parties.Her biological mother came from a very humble background and her reputation was not obvious, but she was extremely favored by the emperor. Back then, she married a confidant of the eldest prince's line.After her husband died of illness, she remained a widow.Although she is a widow, she is not low-key, but has a luxurious temperament, likes fine clothes and fine food, and spends a lot of money when she travels out and about.Many courtiers impeached her, but His Majesty doted on her, and now the most powerful eldest prince also defended her, but in the end they all let it go.Fortunately, although she has a lot of influence on His Majesty, she is devoted to having fun, except for occasionally talking to the First Prince, she doesn't intervene in the court much, she is a slick character.

How could such a princess go to a dim sum shop in a small alley to buy dim sum in person?And why did he appear in Huguo Temple in plain clothes and without hairpins?

Is she, is she secretly meeting someone?No, this attire looks more like someone secretly paying homage to someone.

The third princess seems to be in a really good mood today, and there is a rare bit of sincerity in her eyes: "Master Gu, you are young and tall, and you are favored by your father. As long as you do things down-to-earth, you will have a bright future in the future. What should be involved is nothing more than a small ant. Isn't it good to stay at home with your wife and read poetry and books when you have nothing to do?"

Gu Ruzhuo bowed and said, "Thank you Princess for your instruction, I will definitely remember it in my heart."

The princess saw the little monk coming back from a distance, she shrugged: "I hope you can remember it in your heart."

These days, there are many talented people, but there are also many people who are arrogant or impetuous, and most of them sink after a splash.This little Master Gu looks quite pleasing to the eye, I hope he is a smart person.

Gu Ruzhuo watched the princess turn and leave, then took two steps, bent down, and quietly put something into the palm of his hand.

The little monk jumped up and down from behind: "What is the benefactor doing?"

Gu Ruzhuo straightened up naturally: "It's nothing, the shoes don't fit well."

The little monk said happily: "I went to see it. Inside the lamp offered by the Lu family, there is a lamp with the brand of Lu Jiansu. But it's not one lamp, there are three lamps."

It was Lu Jiansu, his wife and their children.It is rare to offer lamps for deceased relatives for 20 years, unless it is a sudden death.Therefore, at least Lu Jiansu was not expelled by the Lu family.The Lu family is the prince's mother family, so he should stand with the prince.Most likely, he died for the prince.After all, 20 years ago, it should be the time when His Majesty disliked the prince and the prince was declining day by day.

Gu Ruzhuo and the little monk chatted while walking back: "Little monk, I see that the temple is full of greenery. Isn't there a place to enjoy flowers?"

"Yes. There are many flowers in the temple. The most famous one is the lotus pond in the front mountain, and many people come to pray for it; in the back mountain, there are large fields of wild camellia, but they are almost thanked now."

The little monk said happily: "By the way, there are two crabapple trees not far from here, and it is also in flowering season now. Shall I take the benefactor to see it?"

Gu Ruzhuo hid his hands under his sleeves, gently pinched a pink and white flower petal that was stained with mud, and said with a smile: "It's still the next time, I've been out for a while, and it's time for my wife to look for me."

The little monk was very enthusiastic and persuaded: "It's really not far away. If the benefactor comes next time, he may miss the flowering period."

The little monk said and slapped his head: "That's it! I'll take the benefactor back by another road. Although I won't get to the tree, but on the mountain road, I can see the flowers and trees from a distance. Just take a look."

In fact, Gu Ruzhuo doesn't want to do anything more in Japan today.He had just met the third princess before, and if he met again on other delicate occasions, no matter how forgiving the third princess was, she would not let him go.He wanted to find out about Rong Jin's background, but he didn't think about causing trouble for Rong Jin and the Rong family.

But with such a good timing and excuse, he has no reason to refuse.

The two went back from other roads and came to a mountain road. The little monk pointed to him: "Look, benefactor!"

The two crabapple trees are very tall, and the trees are covered with pink and white, which can be scattered everywhere when the wind blows.It was really beautiful, no wonder the little monk urged him to come and see it.

Gu Ruzhuo saw a large row of small houses beside the crabapple tree, and asked, "Little monk, is that house also a Buddhist temple? It doesn't look like it. Could it be a monk's house?"

"It's not a monk's house, nor a Buddhist temple. Well, it's a sacrificial shrine. Some benefactors have no one to rely on at home, and they will come to the temple to donate for fear that there will be no one to enshrine after death. When the benefactors leave, the temple will take away their tablets. Enshrined in it, sweeping and offering sacrifices. Although it is not as good as offering to the descendants of the family, it can be regarded as some consolation."

Maybe the third princess just passed by here, and the petals of the crabapple were on her feet, but it can't be said that she must have come here.But Gu Ruzhuo intuitively felt that the secret was in this row of small houses.He had no intention of prying into the secret of the third princess before, but it was different now.

When the third princess just came out from behind the bush, he was indeed startled, and his heart jumped wildly.But after he calmed down, he discovered something was wrong.The third princess was alone, Su Yi Jing Chai came here, not to mention the secret, she definitely didn't want to be discovered.Otherwise, why didn't she make a sound when he and the little monk first arrived there.She didn't intend to come out at first.

Until Gu Ruzhuo asked about Lu Jiansu.

Regardless of concealing her whereabouts, she immediately questioned her with a stern face.But after Gu Ruzhuo said the words admiring Lu Jiansu, her attitude eased up a lot.

The three princesses have been in the court and the public for so many years, Gu Ruzhuo felt intuitively that she shouldn't be such a moody character.Gu Ruzhuo could feel that the moment she questioned her, she obviously couldn't help losing her composure.

Did Lu Jiansu's name stimulate her?

She must know Lu Jiansu, or even know Lu Jiansu.Guessing based on her age, when Lu Jiansu died, she was about seven or eight years old, and she was old enough to remember things.Moreover, judging from her later reaction, not only did she have no ill feeling towards Lu Jiansu, she even cared about Lu Jiansu.Lu Jiansu is someone she cares about very much.

But Lu Jiansu belongs to the prince, isn't the third princess well known to stand by the eldest prince's side?

What happened to Lu Jiansu back then was swept away, and the insiders kept silent, so Gu Ruzhuo couldn't find out.But more than ten years ago, the person who fought well with the crown prince was not the eldest prince who is at the top of the court today?

When Gu Ruzhuo went back, Rong Jin had been sitting at the door waiting for him for a while: "Where have you been?"

Gu Ruzhuo walked over, grabbed Rong Jin's hand, and pulled him up: "I walked around the temple."

Rong Jin asked with a smile: "Is there any beautiful scenery in sight?"

Gu Ruzhuo thought about it seriously: "The temple is full of verdant greenery, simple and grand, and it is indeed beautiful. But as for the beauty in my eyes, I only saw it when I came back now."

Rong Jin withdrew his hand angrily: "Stop talking sweet words."

The two walked out side by side, Gu Ruzhuo took Rong Jin's hand again, this time Rong Jin didn't break free.

They were halfway there when suddenly a female voice came from behind: "Young Master Gu!"

A group of people slowly caught up from behind.Rong Jin turned his head to look, and saw a beautifully dressed girl walking over surrounded by maids and servants. It should be a lady from some family who came to pay respects to the Buddha.

"It's such a coincidence today that I met Mr. Gu."

Gu Ruzhuo frowned: "Miss?"

He really didn't know the person in front of him, in fact, he didn't know any young ladies from the capital city at all.

The girl lowered her eyes slightly: "My brother is Huo Jingzhou. I once met Mr. Gu at a family banquet."

"It turned out to be Miss Huo."

Huo Jingzhou is Gu Ruzhuo's classmate, and he did attend a banquet at Huo Jingzhou's home.

The girl's beautiful eyes finally fell on Rong Jin's face: "Oh, who is this?"

Rong Jin thought to himself: I am such a living person, I just saw it now, who would believe it.To this kind of person who wants to poach his corner, he really can't bring up any good mood or face.

Gu Ruzhuo looked at Rong Jin with tenderness in his eyes: "It's my wife."

The girl was obviously stunned for a moment, then she quickly smiled again, "Brother accompanied me today, Mr. Gu and Mrs. Ling, do you want to come with us?"

Before Gu Ruzhuo could speak, Rong Jin said coolly, "No need, I'm tired after walking for a long time. How about my husband and Miss Huo go together, and I'll go home alone first?"

Gu Ruzhuo immediately felt a chill on his back, and quickly said, "Miss, are you tired? Why didn't you tell me earlier, I'll carry you down the mountain."

Rong Jin didn't answer, Gu Ruzhuo immediately said to the girl seriously: "Miss Huo's kindness is appreciated by our husband and wife. It's just that my wife is tired, so I want to carry my wife down the mountain."

The smile on the girl's face couldn't be maintained: "Ah, oh. My brother is still waiting for me, so the little girl will leave first."

After the girl left, Rong Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Ruzhuo: "Yo, you're lucky."

"What did Ah Jin say. I know that I only have Ah Jin in my heart." Gu Ruzhuo approached aggrievedly and expressed his favor, "Don't be angry, Ah Jin, I will carry Ah Jin down the mountain."

"No," Rong Jin waved his hands, and said, "I heard that Mr. Gu is a young talent, and he is also the favorite of countless Jiao'ers. How dare I let you carry me? I don't know how many times I will be stared at by then."

Gu Ruzhuo looked serious: "Please let me carry my wife down the mountain. If Ah Jin doesn't let me carry my wife today, I, I will be angry."

Under Gu Ruzhuo's repeated insistence, Rong Jin finally agreed to ask him to carry him.

Gu Ruzhuo walked halfway, and said in a low voice: "I don't know why she is like this. In fact, Brother Huo mentioned it to me before, but I have already told me that I have a wife."

Rong Jin actually knew why: "I'm a merchant. In the eyes of others, I don't deserve you. They think I'm going to go to court sooner or later, so they naturally don't think of me."

Gu Ruzhuo's identity has changed now, and in the future, such things will only happen more, not less.In addition to the ladies who want to replace Mrs. Gu, there will also be those who send concubines and maidservants.

Gu Ruzhuo tightened his hands behind Rong Jin's back: "They don't know anything, it's because I don't deserve Ah Jin."

Rong Jin couldn't help laughing: "How can you be worthy or not? I like you in my heart, so you are worthy of me. If you love me in your heart, I am naturally worthy of you."

"Ruzhuo, I don't care what they do or say. I only care about your heart."

Rong Jin knew that under the background of this world, his identity was really not worthy of Gu Ruzhuo.He himself doesn't care about his family status, but others don't.

Gu Ruzhuo: "In my heart, there is only Ah Jin."

Rong Jin leaned into Gu Ruzhuo's ear, and whispered: "Ruzhuo, I am a man, and I will never compromise like some women in this world and agree with the three wives and four concubines. If you really change your mind, I will No matter how much I like you, I won't bear it. I can never bear to share my beloved with anyone."

The ending of the original novel is right there, and Gu Ruzhuo has so many temptations to face.In Rong Jin's heart, it's not that he is not afraid.

"Don't blame me."

"If I lose Ah Jin, I will be told to burn my heart with flames, and life would be worse than death."
