Chapter 1108 Do you like it?

Gao Wushi didn't introduce the famous "Dance Hall" in Baiyu Tower in detail, but took Princess Yongning through the corridor and directly into another rest room.

Princess Yongning was extremely nervous when she walked through the corridor. The corridor was indeed as resplendent as Wei Min said. The surrounding walls were not only made of shiny dark brown wood, but also had golden borders everywhere. Know if it's real gold or some substitute.

And what made her nervous the most was the legendary naked statue.

Who knew that "without an inch of hair" was true, but they weren't obscene—these statues were all two or three-year-old boys with wings growing from their backs. Although they had different shapes, they were all chubby and very cute.

Of course, Princess Yongning didn't know what a little angel of the Catholic Church was. Her first reaction was "Does he really want a son?"

For some reason, Princess Yongning felt a little sad when she thought of this.

But Gao Wushi explained these statues and said with a smile: "These big fat boys are called 'Angels' in the Catholic Church in Europa, which roughly means angels—of course, they are not the same as the angels we are talking about. Very Roughly speaking, they mostly express the meaning of auspiciousness. Putting these statues here is not far from the same as we put some portraits of Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and various gods."

Princess Yongning was startled for a moment, then realized that she had misunderstood it, and said in amazement: "Are all the gods in Europa children?"

"Uh, that's not true. The Europa people only believe in one god, and their god is called Jehovah. The Europa people call him 'Father' or 'Lord', not the image of a child. These little angels should all serve him, just like Most of the gods of our Han people have boys who serve them."

"Only believe in one god?" Princess Yongning couldn't understand: "Is he too busy?"

Gao Wushi couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said, "This question is really difficult. To tell you the truth, Miss Zhu, I don't believe this. The statues in the corridor are just to restore the architectural style of Europa."

Originally, Gao Pragmatic meant that she did not believe in God, but Princess Yongning understood that she did not believe in "the god of Europa", she nodded and said, "Their god is too far away, so it's fine if you don't believe in it."

Gao Wushi laughed out loud, making Princess Yongning a little puzzled, and asked, "Why are you laughing, Mr. Gao?"

"A long time ago, I once thought about a problem." Gao Wushi said with a smile, "Whether we Chinese believe in God or Buddhism, they are actually very interesting."

"Oh?" Princess Yongning blinked.

Gao Wushi said: "Whether it's a god or a Buddha, if my prayer works, I'll come and fulfill your wish, but if it doesn't work..."

"What if it doesn't work?"

"Where did you hit and die?"

Princess Yongning was a little displeased, and she pouted subconsciously: "How can someone be so snobbish? Besides, if it doesn't work, I think it's probably because of insincerity."

Gao Wushi shook his head and said: "I don't talk about strange powers and gods. From the standpoint of my famous teacher, I dare not say whether the gods really exist, but I think even if they do exist, they don't care about ordinary people—— God doesn't care whether it's devout or hateful.

This is what is meant by the so-called "the world is not benevolent, and everything is a humble dog".This is like we humans are gods in the eyes of ants, but who cares what the ants are thinking, whether they respect themselves or loathe themselves?No, because it has no effect at all. "

If this was said by another person, Princess Yongning, who was deeply influenced by her mother's worship of Buddhism, might be angry, but this is a high-level statement, and Princess Yongning couldn't get angry. She just frowned and thought about it, and asked : "Master Gao please teach me: If there are no ghosts and gods in the world, then the saying that good and evil are rewarded, is it also false? Is there good reward for good, and is evil reward for evil?"

Gao Wushi said: "Goodness is indeed rewarded with good, and evil is indeed rewarded with evil, but whether good is rewarded or evil is rewarded, it is not controlled by ghosts and gods, but by humans."

"People are in control?" Princess Yongning asked inexplicably: "Who can control it?"

Gao Yushi said: "Being good will be rewarded with good things, and getting the right way will help you a lot; evil will be rewarded with evil, and you will get no help if you lose the way. Confucianists don't talk about ghosts and gods, but talk about righteousness, and that's why."

Princess Yongning couldn't refute this truth, she could only murmur subconsciously: "Is that so?"

Seeing this, Gao Wushi smiled and said, "Miss Zhu, have you ever thought about why 'the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world'? Because if you want to win the hearts of the people, you must implement good governance to support the people. Yes, if money and food are harvested, the world will naturally be won. Conversely, if tyranny is imposed to harm the people, the people will flee far away in order to save themselves. If it is difficult to recruit warriors, and it is difficult to collect money and food, how can we not lose the world? Therefore, I do not believe in ghosts and gods, only believe in Heaven is healthy, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement."

Princess Yongning's eyes gradually lost focus, and she murmured: "A gentleman strives for self-improvement? But there are some things that can't be changed no matter how much self-improvement is. Mr. Gao, tell me, what happened to Liang Bangrui that day... how can I change myself by striving for self-improvement?"

"Maybe there is a way, maybe there is no way." Gao Wushi sighed: "But self-improvement is not the way to look at it."

"Then what?"

Gao Wushi said: "In "Poetry·Zhou Song·Zhijing" it is said: 'The king who is in charge of martial arts, but the king who is not competitive'. Zhu's commentary said: The king of Yanwu has a heart of self-improvement, so his meritorious service is prosperous, and there is no one in the world. And competition. In the final analysis, this meaning is not to blame yourself for the difficulties you are facing now, but to always stick to your heart, make unremitting efforts, and strive towards what you want."

"Always stick to your heart, work tirelessly, and strive towards what you want?" Princess Yongning consciously bumped her heart like a deer, and she seemed to be able to hear the thumping sound. , her beautiful eyes shrank, she lowered her head and dared not look at the "Master Gao" in front of her.

Him, is he hinting at me?
Gao Yushi didn't expect this girl's thoughts, that is, she could think in that direction no matter what she said.He saw that Princess Yongning's face was flushed, and her whole body was visibly tense, and he thought she was awakened by his words, and she was cheering him up.

At this moment, when they reached the door of the rest room, the two maids saw the owner approaching, opened the door respectfully, and gave them a blessing.

Gao Wushi nodded slightly, while Princess Yongning was in a turbulent mood, she didn't notice at all, and was led into the room by Gao Wushi in a daze.

"Miss Zhu, please sit down."

Princess Yongning sat down dumbly, she was still nervous, her legs were forced together, and she didn't know where to put her hands.

Seeing this, Gao Wushi thought to himself: This little girl usually only knows how to worship the Buddha, but when such a tragic incident happened, there was no one around her to enlighten her, how pitiful Bala is, just by looking at her appearance, she can tell how serious the psychological trauma is.

Thinking about it again: Yes, the girl at this age was just in high school in my time, and it was the period of psychological formation. If such a big tragedy happened, I am afraid that she would have the thought of jumping off the building.It's a pity that although I know the truth, I didn't give this kind of little girl psychological counseling back then... What should I say at this time?
He thought about it, and felt that the most important thing at this time was to make her feel safe, and since that incident hit her hard, naturally she shouldn't want too many people to know about it.

So Gao Wushi turned his head and gestured towards the door, and the two maids who had been waiting for orders at the door at any time saw this, bowed slightly together, and then one of them stretched out his hand and closed the door.

The sound of closing the door alarmed Princess Yongning, she turned her head and found that the door was closed, and there were only her and Gao Yushi left in the room, she immediately became more nervous.Immediately afterwards, he looked around subconsciously, and happened to see a large velvet-covered chaise longue by the window, and Her Royal Highness's mind suddenly exploded with a "buzz".

What does he... want to do?
Princess Yongning's hand, which had no place to rest, moved randomly, her right hand happened to touch the sachet on her waist, she froze immediately, her eyes turned upwards slightly, and she glanced at Gao Yushi with a guilty conscience.

Who knew that Gao Wushi squeezed out a smile that he thought was warm and intended to comfort her at this time, but she quickly looked away again.

At this moment, Gao Yushi didn't know that Princess Yongning's thoughts had long been far away. He still acted like a trustworthy big brother according to his own understanding. Sit on the western-style sofa.

"Brother has a lot of things to do every day, maybe he may not be able to talk to the girl in detail, and understand what the girl is thinking..."

Who knew that his words of consolation had just started, Princess Yongning suddenly lowered her head and asked in a low voice: "Young Master Gao?"

"Ah? I'm..." Gao Wushi was taken aback for a moment before replying.

Princess Yongning still refused to look up, Gao Wushi could only see that her left ear was red, and the redness extended to her neck until it was covered by her collar.

This little princess has really good skin, look at this rosy white...

Ah bah, what am I thinking?High pragmatism, high pragmatism, don't act like a dead man, don't make such a big death... My brother is the emperor, that's what he said, but if you fucking dare to act recklessly, in case the little princess goes back and sues , How many heads do you have enough to be chopped off?Hold back, hold back.

He had just forced his eyes away when he suddenly heard Princess Yongning's voice asking quietly: "If, if I wasn't the princess...you, would you..."

When she said this, she suddenly fell silent again.

Gao Wushi waited and waited until there was nothing to say, secretly said: Yes, the little girl must be sensitive, she must be suspicious of why I am willing to comfort her like this.

So he slowed down his tone and said in the softest voice: "Even if Miss Zhu is really just Miss Zhu, I will be like this."

"...Why?" Princess Yongning's tone was filled with suspicion.

But... this question is beyond the outline.

Gao Wushi coughed lightly, his mind turned quickly, he paused, and finally said: "I remember when I first met Miss Zhu, she was very reasonable and allowed me and the Liu family brothers and sisters to enter the palace to shelter from the rain (see Volume 124 of this book) Chapters 126-[-]), you can see benevolence and righteousness."

Princess Yongning seemed to relax a little when she heard him mentioning this old incident, and replied: "Actually, my third sister and I should thank Mr. Gao that day, otherwise we might be bumped by Ling Yunyi's family."

Gao Wu said sincerely: "The situation that day is not certain. Although Ling Yunyi's housekeeper had a conflict with me, if I hadn't been there, that guy's virtue probably wouldn't have given the two princesses who concealed their identities any good looks. In this way...

But these are all old things of no great significance, Gao Wushi just smiled and said: "It's a little effort, it's nothing to worry about."

Then he said: "In the future, Miss Zhu will donate the land and save the silver, and set up a fund to relieve the victims. This is a great act of kindness. How can I not help such a kind and polite person?"

Princess Yongning originally felt sweet when he heard him praise herself, but in the end she said "how can I not help" which was not what she expected, she couldn't help feeling a little shy and anxious, and said to herself: You know that I didn't mean that... Could it be, do I still have to take the initiative to say something like that?

But Gao Wushi still didn't know it, and continued to find some praises, and was talking endlessly, Princess Yongning couldn't hold back, she bit her red lips with her white teeth, and suddenly said: "No, Mr. Gao, I just want to ask, If I were an ordinary woman, you, you would...will..."

Gao Yushi was also at a loss, thinking: Didn't I answer it?Am I getting it wrong?

Seeing that he was silent, Princess Yongning finally remembered Wei Min's words before, quietly opened the tight mouth of the sachet, reached in and touched the thin oil paper, gritted her teeth secretly, and tore it open.

A strange fragrance slowly came out.

Gao Wushi also smelled this strange fragrance, but he didn't pay much attention to it, he just thought it was some kind of incense used on Princess Yongning's body, and he didn't notice it because he was a little far away before.

It's just that the fragrance is a little "stuffy", as if it is a kind of fragrance mixed with a variety of spices, and it smells a little dizzy.

He subconsciously sniffed it a few times, but he didn't know what it was like. It seemed to be a bit like ambergris and musk, and there seemed to be more than these two kinds, so he unconsciously moved closer, as if he wanted to smell it clearly.

Princess Yongning was in a tense state all the time, Gao Wushi suddenly moved a little closer, of course she could immediately notice that she was more nervous now, but when she thought that his movement was obviously different from before, she also knew that the sachet must have played a role.

I don't know if it was the effect of the sachet that gave her courage. At this time, she became more courageous and made up her mind suddenly. She turned her head, looked straight at Gao Yushi who was slowly approaching, and asked, "If I'm not the princess, would you like me?" ...would you like me?"

In fact, Gao Wushi didn't notice any problem with his thinking, but felt that the fragrance of Princess Yongning in front of him, although a little dizzy, but it smelled very good, made him always want to get closer and smell it carefully. Asked such a question, suddenly a little dazed.

Princess Yongning's eyes were full of anticipation, but when she saw Gao Wushi was stunned, her heart began to sink, the anticipation in her eyes slowly disappeared, and fear and despair emerged.

Seeing that Princess Yongning's expression is not good, I am afraid that she will cry in the next second, Gao Wushi can't think too much, so he said hurriedly: "This...of course...yes, it will."

Princess Yongning's eyes gradually became a little angry again, but she also had some doubts. She turned around and looked at him suspiciously, as if she didn't quite believe it.

This time the fragrance was even stronger, and Gao Wushi couldn't control himself and moved closer, muttering: "Your Highness...it smells so good." Called "His Royal Highness".

Princess Yongning also felt that the scent was a little dizzy, and for some reason, the closer Gao Yushi got closer, the more she had an indescribable urge to stay close to him without leaving any gaps.

Then she saw that Gao Yushi's eyes changed a little, it seemed a lot bolder, and he started to search around himself, not looking straight away like usual.

She just felt that his eyes seemed to be on fire, and every part of her that was touched by his eyes would become hot, and finally the hot spot actually reached her chest.

Princess Yongning was so ashamed, she wanted to turn around, but seeing Gao Wushi looked a little distracted, she had never seen that before, she felt a little happy in her heart, hesitated for a while, and finally forced herself not to move.

It turned out to be a different kind of enjoyment to be looked at by someone you like like this.

But Gao Wushi seemed to be aware that something was wrong with him, he closed his eyes suddenly, then opened them forcefully, shook his head, he didn't know whether he was going to explain to Princess Yongning, or just talking to himself, and said, "The fragrance on Your Highness... ..."

Princess Yongning was so startled that her heart hung in the air, she was afraid that he would find something unusual, and she didn't know where the courage came from. Suddenly, she leaned towards him, crashed into Gao Yushi's arms, and at the same time stretched out without a teacher. Wrapping Gao Yushi's waist with both hands, the words in his mouth were also unusually bold: "Well...do you like it?"
