It seems that he has really suffered some great grievances.

Gu Mo secretly smiled in his heart, Danqing came to inform him that he already knew about Mrs. Xiao.

Gu Mo knew that Jiang Yue's methods could not even get rid of an old lady from the Xiao family, but he was afraid that he wanted to use his own hands to gain prestige.

By the way, it's just to maintain my reputation of being filial to my mother-in-law.

But seeing Jiang Yue's pitiful and coquettish appearance towards him, he enjoyed it very much, and couldn't bear to poke her.

Gu Mo shrugged, deliberately asking: "Personal service? What kind do you mean?"

He climbed onto Jiang Yue's waist without any hassle, and the two of them pressed against each other tightly.

Jiang Yue was taken aback, obviously she had never seen Gu Mo's face like this, she blushed with shame and said, "Your Majesty is used to making fun of my concubine."

Feeling Jiang Yue's heartbeat like thunder, Gu Mo's eyes flashed with pride, and he leaned into Jiang Yue's ear and whispered, "Wait for me."

Before giving Jiang Yue a chance to breathe, she flashed her figure in an instant.

Pedestrians gathered in front of Dingguogong's mansion, and the common people liked to join in the fun, and when they heard the gossip about Dingguogong's son and the lady of the family, they all gathered together like chicken blood.

The old lady complained bitterly about her daughter-in-law Jiang Yue, confounding black and white and not forgetting to add fuel and vinegar, and everyone talked about it.

Suddenly, a sword shadow flashed by.

The rumored red mandarin duck sword of Duke Dingguo's son was stuck straight in front of the main gate of Duke Dingguo's mansion.

The onlookers backed away in fright, and the old lady stopped crying.

"Who is crying in front of this son?"

Gu Mo stepped out of the threshold slowly, his eyes were cold.

Under the sword eyebrows, a pair of black eyes are like a bottomless abyss, making it difficult to figure out.

"The old woman came to look for her daughter-in-law, and she didn't intend to disturb the eldest son." Mrs. Xiao said in a trembling voice, her appearance seemed respectful, and she really knew how to watch people order.

"Joke, since you are looking for the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, why did you come to my Dingguo mansion? Could it be that this son forcibly robbed the daughter-in-law and put your daughter-in-law of the Xiao family under house arrest."

Gu Mo raised his eyes and drew his sword, saying each word after another.

"The old woman didn't mean that."

The old lady's knees softened, and she knelt down with a plop.

"roll."

I don't want to say any more nonsense.

The sharp sword energy came out of the sheath, and wherever Gu Mo's long sword pointed, there was a dull sound of the sword.

Seeing Gu Mo pointing at her long sword, the old lady was so frightened that she didn't even dare to breathe.

Not to mention the decline of the Xiao family, even if Xiao Liran is still a fourth-rank official, this old woman, Gu Mo, would naturally dare to kill her.

The old lady weighed the importance in her heart, if she got entangled with Gu Mo at this moment, it would be like hitting a stone with an egg.

"Yes, the old woman will leave now."

Before she could brush off the dust on her knees, Chuntao sent herself back to the carriage with her arms.

After a day of turmoil, the sky is already full of dusk.

"But the food cooked by the servant tonight is not to the taste of the prince?"

Danqing saw Gu Mo's strange expression, and asked out loud.

After finishing the matter, Gu Mo didn't know why he didn't have any appetite at all. On the contrary, Jiang Yue's sly face appeared in his mind from time to time.

"Where is she?"

Gu Mo took a bite of the food and put it down, obviously the drunken man didn't care about the wine.

"Madam is in the side room of the West Hall."

No need to ask, Danqing naturally knows who his master is talking about.

Gu Mo put down his chopsticks and stood up, hiding in the night.

The side room of the west hall is just to the northwest of Gu Mo's sleeping hall, and a bluestone path in the middle collapsed within a few steps.

"Hall of the Son of Heaven..."

The two maids guarding outside the courtyard were amused by talking to each other, and they didn't take care of the west courtyard as a serious job at all. In the next second, they saw Gu Mo appearing alone in the sight of the two of them.

"Hush..." Gu Mo didn't care about the dereliction of duty of the two maids, and made a silent gesture to signal them not to report.

The maids understood, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to come out secretly to watch Gu Mo enter the courtyard.

Ye Zi was combing Jiang Yue's hair gently with osmanthus oil with a grate. The faint scent of osmanthus made Jiang Yue very intoxicated. She closed her eyes to enjoy the peace of this moment.

The bedroom door was opened quietly, and when Ye Zi looked up again, she was startled by the figure of Gu Mo standing in front of the screen in the mirror, and her hand shook and pulled Jiang Yue's hair.

Jiang Yue suffered from pain, and slowly opened her eyes, but there was no trace of Ye Zi.

"why you?"

An imperceptible surprise flashed in Jiang Yue's eyes, she turned around and looked at Gu Mo with affection in her eyes.

"Don't forget, this is the Prince's Mansion."

Gu Mo was amused by Jiang Yue's question, playing with Jiang Yue's green hair, and teased her, "Or, Madam also wants to be a woman in the Shizifu?"

Jiang Yue was slightly taken aback, she obviously didn't expect Gu Mo to say that, her face was burning hot.

"Thank you for today's matter, my son, please allow me to make another box of peach blossom cakes to express my gratitude."

Jiang Yue deliberately turned away from Gu Mo's words, and said angrily.

"Make another one? I'm afraid it's not because you want half of my son's life. This son should really check to see if you are the assassin who arranged to assassinate this son."

Gu Mo gently twisted Jiang Yue's blue hair with his fingertips, and the hair seemed to be rubbed into the bottom of his heart, making his heart itch.

"Report—the emperor invites you to go to the palace for a talk."

A knock on the door suddenly sounded, breaking the ambiguous atmosphere in front of him.Fortunately, Danqing didn't push the door to come in very wisely.

"at this time?"

Gu Mo raised his eyebrows, a little dissatisfied.

"Yes, it is said that there is something urgent to discuss."

"Help me prepare the carriage."

Before Jiang Yue could say a word, Gu Mo left in a huff.

Jiang Yue's cheeks were burning hot, listening to her own heartbeat, Gu Mo's departure obviously made her breathe a long sigh of relief.

"I don't know why the emperor called the humble minister here at this moment?"

Gu Mo rushed to the study and waited outside the door for about half an hour before the emperor summoned him.

Gu Mo knew in his heart that this was the emperor showing his face.

"Can you hear the rumors in the capital?"

The emperor sat upright, his face uncertain.

"Never heard of it."

Gu Mo pretended to be stupid on purpose.

"Hmph, everyone said that you were ignorant of the Xiao family's wife, and even when the Xiao family came to ask for someone in your house, you still pretended to be confused in front of me! You disappointed me so much!"

The emperor was agitated by Gu Mo's demeanor, and wanted to smash the teacup on Gu Mo's head, but luckily reason prevailed, and he just threw the teacup heavily on the desk.

Gu Mo wasn't afraid, and he wasn't in a hurry to kowtow to plead guilty, but he got up unhurriedly and methodically cleaned up the spilled tea for the emperor.

"The emperor also said, it's just a rumor."

Gu Mo stood beside the emperor and said calmly.

"I also hope that the emperor will take good care of the dragon body, how can the rumors pollute the holy ears."

The emperor looked at Gu Mo, whom he had grown up with, like his half son, and his calm attitude made him want to be angry at this moment, but he couldn't get angry, so he couldn't help but sighed softly.

"I didn't tell you."
