Alluring City

If Miss Gu hadn't entered the palace instead of her, then... Prince Chen's gentleness would belong to her, wouldn't it?

Gu Xiaowu suddenly raised her head and looked at Lan Qingcheng, her eyes were very sharp, as if she wanted to see through Lan Qingcheng.

Lan Qingcheng was extremely uncomfortable being looked at by Gu Xiaowu's eyes, she backed up involuntarily, and continued: "Miss Gu, although I don't know what kind of method my brother used to get you to agree to enter the palace instead of Qingcheng, but if you If you really don't want to replace Qingcheng, then I..."

"Then what about you? Huh?" Gu Xiaowu asked with a sneer.

Lan Shenglian really protected her sister Lan Qingcheng very much, born in such an aristocratic family, she was so innocent.

It doesn't matter if you are calculating in your heart, the important thing is not to be seen by others.But she was lucky enough to write all her thoughts on her face, she was really stupid!

"I...I..." Lan Qingcheng originally wanted to say 'I will stay in the palace to marry Prince Chen', but was so frightened by Gu Xiaowu's gaze that he was speechless.

"Miss, Luo Guipin is here again." Su Wen's voice came in from outside.

Gu Xiaowu got up suddenly, grabbed Lan Qingcheng and pushed her in.

"If you don't want both you and your brother to die in the palace, you'd better keep quiet." Gu Xiaowu found out the veil she wore when she entered the palace and put it on Lan Qingcheng, then walked out quickly.

Just as he sat down, he heard the sound of Luo Guipin pushing the door open.

"Your concubine, why are you here?" Because of Lan's family's status in Tianchen, Gu Xiaowu didn't have to salute like concubines below the rank of imperial concubine.

When Luo Guibin saw Gu Xiaowu, he immediately laughed.She walked up to Gu Xiaowu's side, held her hand, and said, "Qingcheng, didn't we agree earlier that we wanted to call my niece into the palace to meet you, and I have already sent someone to bring her into the palace?" , but you left the palace with His Highness the Crown Prince and the others again. No, as soon as I heard that you had returned to the palace, I hurried to pick you up in person."

The last time I came here, I was still called Miss Lan, so I changed my name to Qingcheng so soon?

A gleam of coldness flashed across Gu Xiaowu's eyes, but he smiled and said: "Your concubine has a heart, you just need to send someone over to talk about this kind of thing, why bother to go there yourself!"

It was just a few perfunctory words, but she really called people into the palace.Wanting her to be Gu Yunyao's stepping stone depends on whether she agrees or not!

She's not a fool, so how could she be a matchmaker for a woman she hates?What's more, the person they fancy is Dugu Chen.

"Qingcheng doesn't know something. Those girls in this palace are very sloppy. I was worried that they would neglect Qingcheng, so I came to pick you up in person. If you have nothing to do, then follow me to Zhongcui Palace, Yao That girl is waiting there!" Luo Guipin seemed a little anxious.

A wealthy businessman's daughter actually wants a young lady from a family to meet her?It turned out that Concubine Luo was not so impeccable in her work!

Seeing Gu Xiaowu's displeasure, Luo Guipin immediately realized the inappropriateness of what she said, and quickly explained: "That girl Yao'er wanted to come to Jinxiu Palace to meet you in person, but she is only my niece, if you are here Walking around in the palace, if the empress is caught by her, I'm afraid she will be punished, so this palace keeps her in Zhongcui Palace."

"Your Majesty, please wait for a moment, let me go and change my clothes." There is still a Lan Qingcheng in the room, so let's get rid of it first.

"Okay, I'm just waiting for you. You can go quickly." Luo Guipin smiled lovingly, but she seemed to have forgotten that she was not very old, and pretending to be kind would make people feel awkward .

Seeing Gu Xiaowu coming in, Lan Qingcheng was ready to speak.Gu Xiaowu quickly covered her mouth with his eyes, leaned close to her ear, and whispered: "I'll accompany that woman to the Zhongcui Palace, and you hurry to your brother's place. Otherwise, you and your brother will be in trouble."

Lan Qingcheng nodded hurriedly, indicating that she understood.

Only then did Gu Xiaowu let go of her, quickly changed into a coat, and put the jade that Duguchen and Dugu had found for her next to her before leaving.

He only took two steps, but was pulled back by Lan Qingcheng again.

"Can I ask you a question?" Lan Qingcheng looked at Gu Xiaowu expectantly.

Unable to stand her expression, Gu Xiaowu couldn't help frowning, but still nodded.

"You ask."

"Why are your two jade pendants the same?" No matter how much you like that kind of jade pendant, you can't buy two of the same one, right?

Gu Xiaowu knew that Lan Qingcheng saw her jade pendant just now, but luckily she didn't seem to see the words engraved on it.

"I like it, can you control it?" Gu Xiaowu calmly walked out with such a sentence.

Lan Qingcheng became curious about the two pieces of jade because of Gu Xiaowu's words.

If she read it correctly, there seemed to be words engraved on the jade pendant.One is engraved with 'Chen', and the other is engraved with 'Xun'. What is the meaning of this jade pendant?Should she ask her brother?

Hearing the silence of the people outside, Lan Qingcheng came out from inside.

Although Lan Shenglian lived not close to Gu Xiaowu's place, it was in the same palace after all, and it was not far away, so Lan Qingcheng returned to Lan Shenglian's residence soon.

In addition, most of the maids and servants of Jinxiu Palace were sent to other places by Gu Xiaowu, so no one really noticed them along the way.

"Brother, don't read, Cheng'er has something to ask you." Lan Qingcheng took the book away from Lan Shenglian's hand, with a sweet smile on her face.

Lan Shenglian's heart warmed up, she stretched out her hand to rub her head, and asked amusedly, "Is there anything worth worrying about?"

"Cheng'er saw two beautiful jade pendants from Miss Gu just now, and there were characters engraved on them. One was engraved with the character 'Chen', and the other was engraved with the character 'Xun'. Brother, the two Does the piece of jade pendant have any special meaning? I asked Ms. Gu, but she was unwilling to tell Cheng'er." Lan Qingcheng said with a confused face.

"Can you see clearly?" A trace of surprise flashed from Lan Shenglian's handsome eyes, but Lan Qingcheng didn't notice it.

"It should be right. I was very close to her at the time, so I shouldn't be wrong." Although she didn't hold it in her hand to read it, she was still a little confident at such a close distance.

"Actually, it's meaningless. The words engraved on it should be the names of people who are very important to her." He really didn't expect that Prince Chen and Lord Xun had already given such an important jade pendant to Gu Qingcheng. At this moment, he suddenly felt a little lucky that Cheng'er did not want to enter the palace.

If he hadn't let Gu Qingcheng enter the palace instead of Cheng'er, then even if Cheng'er really married Prince Chen, the days to come would be miserable.

After all, Prince Chen is different from the current emperor. If he really falls in love with Gu Qingcheng, he will definitely not be willing to wrong her. At that time, Cheng'er will be the one who will be wronged.

Fortunately, fortunately, Cheng'er didn't want to enter the palace, and fortunately, Cheng'er didn't know the meaning of the two pieces of jade, otherwise he really didn't know what reason to find to fool him.

"Brother, is that word Chen the name of the crown prince? Was that piece of jade given to her by the crown prince Chen?" Lan Qingcheng raised her head and asked stubbornly.

Lan Shenglian helplessly touched Lan Qingcheng's head, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, how could this elder brother know? Miss Gu and Prince Chen have only known each other for only two or three days, how could he give her a jade pendant!"

"But... Brother, didn't Ms. Gu live in Jiangning City before? Could it be that they knew each other before?" Looking at Prince Chen's attitude towards Ms. Gu, it doesn't look like he just met him. Prince Chen has long liked Miss Gu, that's why he is so gentle to her?

If that was the case, what would she do?

Lan Shenglian looked at Lan Qingcheng in some surprise, seeing that she seemed to be just curious, she didn't think about it any more.

"Is it so easy to know Prince Chen? Miss Gu is just the daughter of an ordinary family, and Prince Chen is the high-ranking Crown Prince of Tianchen. How could they have had the chance to know each other before? Chenger, don't think about it anymore, it's getting late. You should rest earlier, I have to send you out of the palace tomorrow!" Lan Shenglian said kindly.

Putting the real and the fake Lan Qingcheng together, he was really worried.

He still didn't know whether Prince Chen already knew about the fact that he had someone pretend to be Cheng'er to enter the palace, so it's better to send Cheng'er away earlier, if he really cheated, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.

It doesn't matter if he is the only one, but there are so many people in the Lan family, the crime of deceiving the emperor, it will be punished by the nine clans!

"Brother, if Cheng'er doesn't go back, Cheng'er will stay in the palace." Lan Qingcheng tugged on Lan Shenglian's sleeve, acting coquettishly.

Lan Shenglian suddenly felt something was wrong, "Cheng'er, be good, stop messing around, I'll help you change your appearance first, and then you can go to bed quickly."

"I don't want it. Cheng'er hates to live in front of others." It is impossible for Prince Chen to like the face of that maidservant. Since he can treat Miss Gu who looks the same as her, then he will definitely treat her well. She's fine, she wants to change back with Miss Gu!

Lan Shenglian frowned slightly, and he persuaded softly: "Hey, don't make trouble, after Prince Chen and Miss Gu get married, Cheng'er can appear in front of people with his own appearance. But not now, there are many people in the palace Miscellaneous eyes, if people see it, something big will happen."

"Brother..." She didn't want to leave the palace, if she did, she would have no chance to see Prince Chen again.

"What's wrong?" Cheng'er is really not right today, what happened?

"I..." Lan Qingcheng looked at Lan Shenglian, hesitating in his heart whether to tell him that he didn't want to leave the palace.

"What's the matter? Cheng'er, is there anything you can't say to your brother?" Lan Shenglian asked patiently.

"It's nothing, brother, no one will come here at night anyway, can you wait until tomorrow morning to change Chenger's face?" Lan Qingcheng lowered his head and smiled to hide the panic that flashed in his eyes.

She couldn't talk to her brother like that, otherwise he would think she was messing around.
