Palm pet

Chapter 44
Royal Palace.

At this time, the palace is feasting and dancing, singing and dancing.

In the main hall, there are golden dragons standing in a tripod, and the ministers and workers on both sides are talking and laughing.

Today, His Majesty has completely inherited the tall, burly and decisive killing spirit of the mother clan, and also possesses the upright manner unique to the royal family. Wearing a dragon robe, although he is young, he is as bold as ever. All reveal the deterrent air of the emperor.

The head of the long table is the Uncle Guo, who has always been ruthless with his eyes above the top, but now he is using his power to run amok.

Although most of the courtiers present were not willing to be subservient to others, but with these two sitting in charge, no matter how dirty their hearts were, they could only dare to flatter them.

Speaking of Gu Chengyu's forced marriage of Yun Jin'an, Gu Ruonan has some emotional thoughts.

First of all, the identities and family backgrounds of the two are very different. If the fifth child was not thrown into the quagmire because of the robbery of the marriage, she would definitely not dare to think about the entanglement between them.

If she hadn't sent Xiao Tingrui and his son back to the west with her own hands, and turned around and decided to marry her, she would not have dared to think that the fifth child would still have fantasies about that woman as time passed.

Secondly, the change from Princess Shao to now the wife of the Gu family, her step-son and daughter-in-law suddenly became sister-in-law, naturally slapped her former rival in the face.

But in the final analysis, this move is not a matter of embarrassment for the Gu family, Yu Laowu.

Thirdly, and the most deadly point, everyone knew that Xiao Tingrui, father and son, and the Yun family all died at the hands of the fifth child.

Such means, even outsiders would feel terrified when looking at them, let alone the person involved, Yun Jin'an?

In the past, she didn't cherish her for the destruction of her family, but now that she has such a deep hatred, is it possible that she still expects her to treat him sincerely?

Regarding this matter, Gu Ruonan had a lot of headaches, but he always said one thing, and she, the elder sister, couldn't stop it.

Seeing that Gu Chengyu is in a good mood today, Gu Ruonan found the right time to point out to him some ladies from aristocratic families with clean backgrounds or court ladies who are well-behaved and pleasing according to his previous preferences.

But he suddenly turned down his face and refused, without any room for negotiation.

Gu Ruonan wanted to make things clear, but he also knew that the fifth child was most annoyed by others criticizing the girl from the Yun family, so he said in a discussing tone:

"In the court, there are no nameless officials, who are not wives and concubines, you are new, and you have learned the sour tunes of such literati.

Although it is indeed a good story to be the only one who favors Wudu, but the coldness of the backyard is not decent after all. "

"...Elder Sister means that you are not too young now and you are the only child in your family, so you should rest in peace for your parents, and you should spread your branches and leaves earlier."

Speaking of the second half of the sentence, seeing that his tough eyes seemed to have faded a little, Gu Ruonan gave them a look, and said:
"These few are well-born, and their backgrounds are no worse than those of the young ladies from aristocratic families, and they are all the most caring and considerate.

On normal days, I would definitely be reluctant to part with it, but only after hearing that my sister-in-law knows how to feel warm and cold, and is not someone who is easily jealous, I dare to hand it over to you with confidence.

Today, you will take it back first, and you will not hesitate to get some status. It is good luck to get a glimpse of you and relieve the Gu family's worries. If it is not right, you can tell the elder sister, and the elder sister will train you for you. "

Hearing the words, those girls stepped forward to pour wine and choose fruits for him in a very sensible way, but they were shocked back by his subtle movement of holding the wine glass tightly before they could get close.

"Now that the frontiers are peaceful and the throne is stable, it's better for Eldest Sister to take advantage of the peaceful days to take care of her life."

The tone was not harsh, but it was like a slap in the face, which made her feel embarrassed immediately.

After Gu Chengyu finished speaking, he drank the wine in a leisurely manner, obviously very dissatisfied with what the elder sister said just now, and obviously did not intend to give her a step.

"...It's time to take the medicine. Since the queen mother is not feeling well, go back and rest."

Seeing that the voices of the ministers chatting, laughing and drinking had gradually quietened down, as if they were exploring the excitement or even watching a joke, Xiao Tingyi opened his mouth first.

Concealing the embarrassment and embarrassment of losing his value, Gu Ruonan just smiled: "Yes, yes."

He glanced at Lao Wu who was still drinking in a muffled voice, and then said to all the ministers: "I'm tired of mourning, so I'll be excused first, everyone, please have fun."

Watching the Empress Dowager leave the table, Xiao Tingyi raised his wine glass to respect all the ministers and workers: "When you first ascend the throne, your support and help are indispensable. I respect you all."

As soon as the sound fell, the toasts and cups staggered again.

Many people secretly sighed, this Gu Hou really has a hard-to-change nature, he only suffered from that kind of loss a few years ago, and now he dares to embarrass the current Empress Dowager in front of His Majesty.

Some people secretly speculated that there might be a rift between the siblings. After all, it is not uncommon over the years that the bird is dead, the rabbit is dead, and the dog is cooking.

It is true that His Majesty is supported by Gu Hou with only one hand, but how long will he be able to endure such a highly accomplished uncle who is young and vigorous.

It's just that no matter how curious, there is no one in the hall who talks too much. No one dares to inquire about the secrets of the Tian family.

What's more, he is still a ruthless character who wiped out King Shao's henchmen with his own power, and even his fourth sister and his wife would not let him go, who would dare to offend easily.

"My mother has had a drink, so uncle should not take it seriously when she is drunk."

After entertaining his ministers, Xiao Tingyi turned his mind to Gu Chengyu.

Gu Chengyu still knows the etiquette for this Nine-Five Supreme Being, and kept saying that His Majesty would stand up and toast when he saw him outside.

"It's my uncle who sees you." Xiao Tingyi nodded slightly to signal to sit down, and offered his wine glass: "My nephew respects you, I hope that my uncle and aunt will love each other deeply, and the love will last forever."

As soon as the words fell, Gu Chengyu burst out laughing, his voice was hearty and full of profit.

Normally the most ruthless eyebrows and eyes, at this moment, seemed to have eaten molasses, and blushed a little bit with gentle flickering.

But I couldn't celebrate for a long time, I don't know what Shi Yi who came running in a hurry muttered something, and saw him suddenly change his face.

Shocked eyes suddenly lifted, and the finger bones holding the wine glass suddenly turned white.

All the ministers immediately realized the impending storm, and the heart that had just relaxed couldn't help but tense again, but seeing that he just put down the wine glass with a bang, told His Majesty that he had something to leave, and then hurriedly left the table.

"She, really lied to me. I'm sure... she escaped. Have everyone asked?"

After walking for a while, Gu Chengyu suddenly asked again.

Over the past few days, the person who has been facing each other day and night, sleeping on the same couch, even in his sleep, who only nestled in his arms and called his brother, now actually tells him that all that was just a trick she used to completely leave him, so that he could not do anything. How could he be reconciled to using such despicable means.

Did he treat her badly?

He is like a brother like a father, he is not thoughtful about anything, he is not considerate in anything, but in the end he is just playing tricks on him, and all the tricks are done to dump him again and again, how can he be reconciled!
"Shangshuixie, Yun's family, Tingyu Pavilion, all the city gates, I have searched for all the places I could find..." Seeing him suppressing his anger with extreme forbearance, Shi Yi took a half step tremblingly: "They It’s only when I can’t make up my mind that I dare to ask Lord Hou for instructions.”

Those extremely gloomy lacquer eyes were bright and dark, but they smiled back with anger.

"good very good."

After Gu Chengyu laughed angrily, he tore off his waist card, and with the other hand, he clenched the hilt of the shuriken even more tightly, his deep dark eyes fixed on the front, and his steps were as swift as the wind.
