"You don't talk to married women in the future, this woman is definitely not easy." The emperor paused for a moment, recalling in his mind the last time Shangshu wept to visit Jiang Yue in the hall.

It is said that it is difficult for an honest official to decide on family affairs. At that time, the emperor didn't want to intervene and simply turned a blind eye.

But the last time I heard that Gu Mo personally rescued this girl from Lin Rujin who abused lynching, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is extraordinary, so the emperor would be angry when he heard the rumor today.

"Has the emperor ever met Jiang Yue?"

Gu Mo didn't agree with the emperor's words, he knew that Jiang Yue was not simple, but if he wanted to cut off contact with Jiang Yue, he was really reluctant.

"I have never seen her husband before. Her husband is only a fourth-rank official in the court, and now his whereabouts are unknown. I don't know if he absconded in fear of crime. In this way, she is considered the wife of a criminal minister."

The emperor continued to scold, "What's more, this woman has a lot of disputes with the minister's daughter in the prime minister's mansion. Although they have not yet been determined, such morals are really indecent."

While grinding the inkstone, Gu Mo listened to the emperor's words that Jiang Yue was worthless. If it were someone else, Gu Mo would always go along with it and let the emperor deal with it casually, but today he felt that what the emperor said was too absolute.

"Xiao Liran's case has not yet been definitively determined, not to mention that Jiang Yue is just a woman who has been dragged down by her newlywed husband. Before Dongchuang's incident, Jiang Yue was still the granddaughter of the crown prince and his wife, with a distinguished status. She had not been married as Xiao's wife for three days, and disaster came. The Xiao family is guilty, but if this crime is imposed on Jiang Yue, how innocent it is!"

Gu Mo spoke eloquently, and added another sentence at the end, "If you want to commit a crime, there is no excuse, Your Majesty."

The emperor snapped his tongue. Originally, he said these things just to remind Gu Mo and Jiang Yue to draw a clear line, but he didn’t expect Gu Mo to defend Jiang Yue like this, his face flushed, but Gu Mo’s words made sense and he couldn’t refute them .

"You are so partial to her, do you have an affair with her?"

The emperor waited for a long time and finally got straight to the point. He had heard of Jiang Yue Shengjing Furong's name.

"Wei Chen has no personal feelings for her."

Gu Mo seemed to have heard a big joke, it's fine for others to listen to such rumors, he did deliberately favor Jiang Yue.

"Since that's the case, why did you protect her and speak for her over and over again? I also heard that you rescued Jiang Yue from Shangshu's mansion that day, which shows the deep affection."

The emperor obviously didn't believe it.

Gu Mo put down the pen and ink in his hand.Lowering his eyes, he knelt down slowly, "To be honest, I have a very close relationship with Jiang Yue, but it's not as rumored. It's Jiang Yue who has been kind to me."

"Yes? What kindness can you owe others?"

The emperor didn't expect that there was such a reason, and immediately came to the nature.

"Jiang Yueshi is my savior, and I have no choice but to repay my life-saving grace."

Gu Mo patted his chest loudly.

"What? The savior? When did she save your life?"

The emperor was shocked when he heard the words, and immediately lifted up Gu Mo who was kneeling on the ground, looking around anxiously, "Have you ever been injured, why didn't I know about it?"

"If you go back to the emperor, such a trivial matter is nothing to worry about, how dare a humble minister bother the emperor."

Gu Mo lowered his head and said humbly, "Half a month ago, my minister suffered from an old illness and was assassinated. It was Mrs. Xiao who stepped forward to block the fatal blow, so my minister would not be killed."

Gu Mo didn't want to bring this matter up at first, and told the emperor that the emperor would order a thorough investigation of the matter. Now that the murderer is unknown, Gu Mo didn't want to startle the snake so quickly.

"Bold!" the emperor said in a trembling voice, "Who dares to assassinate at the feet of the emperor, and dare to assassinate the dignified Duke Ding!"

"Weichen has already sent people to investigate this matter. Now, can the emperor believe that Weichen and Mrs. Xiao have no personal relationship?"

Gu Mo changed the subject, and quickly proved his innocence.If he continues to talk to the emperor like this, I'm afraid he won't be able to go back home tonight.

"I'm sorry for you."

The emperor collapsed on the dragon chair when he heard the words, "I shouldn't listen to slander, you go back first, I will definitely investigate the murderer thoroughly."

"Wei Chen retire."

Before Gu Mo came back, Jiang Yue had already heard about the emperor summoning Gu Mo to go into a rage in the west courtyard, and then inadvertently told the two maids in front of the courtyard that the incident was all caused by her.

As clever as Jiang Yue, she has guessed seventy-eighty-nine points.In the end, Ye Zi was asked to inquire about the news, only to find out that Gu Mo did not hesitate to talk back to the emperor in order to protect himself, and claimed that he was his savior...

This was the first time someone treated her like this.

When he was not out of the cabinet, he was honored because of his status.There are so many guests in the Jiang family, Jiang Yue has always been used to people being nice to her, whether it is sincere or not, it is all because of her identity.Once married into Xiao's family, Jiang Yue was stared at in her previous life, and only then did she realize that no one cares about her after being betrayed by her relatives.

But in this life, it's not because of her status, nor because she covets her beauty, only Gu Mo protects her in a down-to-earth manner.

"What are you thinking, madam, so lost in thought?"

Ye Zi saw that Jiang Yue had finished washing but stayed late to go to bed, sitting in front of the bronze mirror, sometimes frowning and sometimes smiling.

"It's okay, just make up for me."

Jiang Yue's vermilion lips parted lightly, her almond eyes turned to look forward.

Gu Mo got out of the carriage and looked up to see Jiang Yue who was holding a lantern in front of the main entrance.

I saw Jiang Yue wearing a water-colored half-sleeved sleeve dyed crotch, the lower skirt was wrapped with damask and satin, and the silk satin skirt swayed slightly like a weak willow supporting the wind, holding a lamp in her white hand like green onions, and a pair of deer buns, standing in front of the door Smiling to himself.

This battle was obviously to welcome Gu Mo.

Gu Mo was stunned on the spot, and he didn't know whether it was Jiang Yue's appearance that surprised him, or Jiang Yue's shy appearance was radiant.

"It's windy outside, go in first."

After only being stunned for a moment, Gu Mo regained his senses.

Gu Mo couldn't help but wanted to bring Jiang Yue into the mansion together, but when he thought of the emperor's words, that trace of tenderness was fleeting.

It's a pity that the night was so thick that Jiang Yue couldn't see clearly.

"Report-"

As soon as Gu Mo sat down, his face was indifferent, and his eyes gleamed with gloomy light. Today's facts are cumbersome and Gu Mo has gradually lost his patience.

"What's the matter?" His voice was as cold as a piece of ice.

"Returning to your son, just now the father-in-law from the palace came and said that the princess's birthday will be five days later. The princess hosted a banquet for everyone in the palace and outside the palace. He came here to distribute invitations, saying that the princess has spoken, and I want you to go there. "

Dan Qing's waist was almost bent to the ground, who knew how much he was struggling in his heart at the moment, but he didn't dare to offend the princess's person, so he could only bite the bullet and come to report.

Invitation from the first princess?
Jiang Yue's eyes lit up when she heard this.

As soon as she entered the door, she waited beside Gu Mo. She wanted to rub Gu Mo's head, but seeing that Gu Mo turned a blind eye to his overtures tonight, she had no choice but to give up.

"Don't go."

Gu Mo refused without thinking.
