Spring Girl's Notes

The Queen Mother was naturally happy when Zhu Zhongjun entered the palace.

She grabbed Zhu Zhongjun and talked a lot.

Gu Jinzhi was restless all the time.

The emperor glanced at her several times, and always felt that she was abnormal today.

Some thoughts hovered in my heart, and I refused to leave for a long time.

The emperor was afraid that staring at Gu Jinzhi would arouse the queen mother's suspicion, so he glanced at her by chance.But I always feel empty in my heart.

As for Zhu Zhongjun, he was uncharacteristically, a little silent, not like the silly younger brother in the past.

The emperor frowned slightly.

After talking for a while, the queen mother saw that the emperor was very tired, so she said: "The emperor has not lay down to rest for several days. The situation is gradually stabilizing, and there will be more things in the future. The emperor should also lie down and refresh himself."

Gu Jinzhi hurriedly said, "Xiao Qi will leave without interrupting His Majesty's rest."

Zhu Zhongjun did not obey Gu Jin's words as usual, he was stunned for a moment, then stood up, and said: "Mother, brother, Zhongjun also bid farewell."

The queen mother glanced at the emperor.

The emperor also looked at the queen mother.

From the Queen Mother's eyes, he saw confusion; from Gu Jinzhi's eyes, he saw fear, and Zhu Zhongjun saw strangeness in his eyes.

None of this is quite normal.

King Luyang never spoke like this, like an adult, respecting the emperor and speaking strangely to the queen mother.

The emperor was shocked.

He didn't say much, just nodded.

Now he is really exhausted, and there is a disaster ahead, he doesn't have the heart to find out what happened to King Luyang and what Gu Jinzhi is afraid of.

"I'm tired of talking," said the emperor.

Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun stood up.Saluted the emperor and the queen mother, and left the Kunning Palace.

The emperor looked at the rose-purple figure going away, without looking back for a long time.

A soft noise pulled him back from his thoughts.

The Empress Dowager covered the teacup with a heavy cover.

"...Why is Xiaoqi a little weird today?" The queen mother said to the emperor.

The emperor couldn't help but glanced at his mother.

He thought that his mother would definitely say, why is Zhong Jun so weird today!

Compared with Xiao Qi, mother should care more about Zhong Juncai.

The empress dowager looked back at the emperor, and there was a flash of determination and coldness in her eyes.It reminded him of that year.The mother and Concubine Wan Liu conspired against the queen together, and in the end besides Concubine Liu Chen, she became the queen herself.The scene of making him the prince is vivid in my mind.

At that time, the emperor, who was still a child, often saw his gentle and quiet mother showing a strange coldness.

Mother is not a woman who does not fight for anything.

She played tricks.The emperor was not sure that he would be able to accept the move.

It's just that in these years, there is no threat around her, so An An can be her queen mother with peace of mind, put away her edge, and enjoy the honor in peace.

Thinking of these, the emperor felt inexplicably cold.

"Yes. What's wrong with Xiaoqi?" The emperor followed the Queen Mother's words and said. "Zhong Jun is also a bit weird."

The queen mother picked up the teacup that had been put down, and took a sip of the slightly cold tea.

All her actions and words hinted at the emperor, she knew very well what happened to Zhong Jun.

However, she doesn't want to talk about it.

As long as the emperor remembers, it's Xiaoqi who is strange...

No matter what happened to Zhongjun, the Queen Mother will pass the responsibility to Xiao Qi.

She seems pretty sure of it.Xiaoqi can bear it.

What happened to Zhongjun?

Coming out of Kunning Palace, the emperor really wanted to clear his mind.But there was no rest for too long.There was a blank in my mind, and my thoughts were intermittent.My brain seemed to be pressed down by a heavy stone, and I was so tired of panting, I couldn't sort out my messy thoughts at all.

He desperately needs sleep.

It really is impossible for people not to rest.

He walked back to Qianqing Palace.

Coming out of the palace, Gu Jinzhi didn't speak.

She sat silently in the carriage.

Zhu Zhongjun didn't speak either.

He secretly glanced at Gu Jinzhi's expression.

Seeing her drooping eyes, wondering what she was thinking, Zhu Zhongjun turned his head.

"Gu Jinzhi." After a long silence, Zhu Zhongjun suddenly said, "Do you know that the emperor likes you?"

"I know." Gu Jinzhi said.

"So, the Empress Dowager said that you have to bear this matter alone." Zhu Zhongjun said, "Maybe you will feel very hurt. I didn't make it clear to you last night. The Empress Dowager did this to protect me and let the emperor treat you Give up; I followed suit and agreed."

Gu Jinzhi nodded and said, "Got it."

Zhu Zhongjun fell silent again.

The carriage rolled forward with occasional bumps.

Zhu Zhongjun didn't speak again.

Gu Jinzhi closed his eyes and dozed off.

Her eyelashes flickered slightly, which showed that she also had emotional ups and downs, but she was trying her best to suppress it.

"Do you feel like I've stabbed you in the back now?" Zhu Zhongjun suddenly asked her again in the silent carriage.

His tone was so casual and so natural that Gu Jinzhi almost lost control.

She didn't open her eyes, but slightly clenched her hands under her sleeves to suppress her emotions.

After a long while, she smiled lightly and said, "It's okay, I'm used to it!"

Zhu Zhongjun suddenly lost his temper.

He clenched his fists so tightly that Gu Jinzhi could even hear his joints crack.

She finally opened her eyes.

Zhu Zhongjun's emotions quickly subsided.

He made himself look like he didn't feel guilty at all, but actually he really wanted Gu Jinzhi to yell at him, so that he would feel more comfortable.

However, Gu Jinzhi probably wouldn't.

Regardless of whether it was the previous life or the present life, Zhu Zhongjun rarely saw Gu Jinzhi lose his temper with anyone.

If you mess with her, she will ignore him at worst.

Her personality has advantages and disadvantages.

It is every man's dream not to have to deal with a wife who is irritable and hysterical over trivial matters, and Gu Jinzhi fits this requirement.

But she is slow in everything, not because she doesn't care, but because she seldom opens the door to her heart.

There are too few things that can enter her heart.

Once she is dissatisfied with anyone, it will not change in this life.She likes a person very lightly.Hate a person but very thoroughly.

Such a person is easy to get along with on the surface, but is actually very indifferent.

Zhu Zhongjun really wanted to say sorry.

When the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything.

He didn't apologize.

He used his way to protect this woman, no matter what she thought, Zhu Zhongjun didn't feel sorry for her at all.

"I will always be your pawn." Gu Jinzhi spoke first, "This time, I am willing. As a pawn, you should understand. Where you put yourself is determined by others, no matter how treacherous the game is. , It has nothing to do with chess pieces. This game of chess is played by you, the queen mother and the emperor. Winning or losing is all yours, and I am only responsible for walking the road you have paved for me."

"You are not my pawn." For the first time, Zhu Zhongjun's voice lacked confidence. "You will be my wife..."

Gu Jinzhi suddenly turned his head and looked at him.

"Really, Zhu Zhongjun, wife, children, parents, who do you care about?" Gu Jinzhi asked him, "I am your wife. Have you ever cared about me?"

"What do you think!" Zhu Zhongjun was suddenly furious and roared.

Gu Jinzhi looked at him and became angry from embarrassment.Quietly turned away.

Zhu Zhongjun's breathing became heavy.

He clenched his fists tightly again.

"You think...you think I don't care?" Zhu Zhongjun couldn't help it, and shouted angrily.

Gu Jinzhi didn't answer, so he affirmed it.

Zhu Zhongjun was so angry that the veins popped out on his forehead.

He ignored Gu Jinzhi any more.

Gu Jinzhi didn't speak to him either.

########

Zhu Zhongjun still lives in the outer courtyard of the Gu family.

The one who accompanied him back this time was not Ning Xi, but the guard commander of the palace, named Chen Dingwen.He is one of Ning Xi's confidantes.

The guards of the Luzhou Palace were all sent to Annan Kingdom to quell the chaos last year.Not yet recruited.

There are less than a hundred guards left in the palace, most of them are guard leaders.It is the main force of Ning Xi's cronies.

As long as the palace recruits new guards, Ning Xi can still cover the sky with one hand.

Chen Dingwen is only in his twenties.

The commander Tongzhi is only under the commander of Ning Xi, and he is an official of the third rank.Chen Dingwen had never been on a battlefield, and he was not someone Ning Xi brought over.Even though he was young, he had Ning Xi's trust so much that he was asked to accompany Zhu Zhongjun to Beijing. Zhu Zhongjun was very interested in this Chen Dingwen.

He wanted to find talent from Ning Xi just like he found the guard Sun Ke.

"...Since the two courtyards are connected, let's open one from here and open a corner door." Zhu Zhongjun wandered around in the courtyard of the Gu family, and said to the guard Chen Dingwen.

Chen Dingwen hesitated for a while, and said, "My lord, don't you need to discuss it with the Gu family?"

"Of course." Zhu Zhongjun said, "Go ahead and talk about it."

He pretended to be a fool along the way, and he didn't return to normal until today.

He spoke to Chen Dingwen in the tone of a mature man, which made Chen Dingwen a little confused.

There is exactly the same face in front of my eyes, but the demeanor and tone have all changed, and it is difficult for anyone to adapt.

Chen Dingwen reacted quickly and did not show any strangeness in front of Zhu Zhongjun.

He went to the main courtyard and told Song Pan'er what Zhu Zhongjun meant.

Song Pan'er was very happy.

Open a corner door, Gu Jinzhi's life in Beijing is still the same as in her mother's house.

"What does the prince mean?" Song Pan'er asked Chen Dingwen.

She knew that Zhu Zhongjun listened to Gu Jinzhi very much.

It means Zhu Zhongjun, and it means Gu Jinzhi.

Chen Dingwen said: "Yes, the prince said to open a corner door, so you don't need to go through the main door, so it's convenient to come and go."

Song Pan'er nodded: "Go and tell the prince, I will start construction on an auspicious day."

Chen Dingwen said yes.

He went back again and told Zhu Zhongjun.

Zhu Zhongjun is reading a book.

When he was in Luzhou, he often read books.He is very stupid, but his memory is amazing, so he often takes some books to read.

We don't know if he can understand it.

Chen Dingwen told Zhu Zhongjun the meaning of Mrs. Gu's family.

Zhu Zhongjun nodded.

For dinner that day, he went to the main courtyard of Gu's family for dinner.

Gu Jinzhi saw him, but didn't speak to him.

He also ignored Gu Jinzhi.

Everyone didn't know the reason, they just thought it was two children fighting again.

After dinner, Zhu Zhongjun followed Gu Yanzhen and brother Xuan to the outer courtyard, and Song Paner left Gu Jinzhi to talk.

"Last night, the prince came back in the middle of the night, what happened?" Song Pan'er asked, "You two went to the palace again when you got up early today, what did you say, why am I so confused?"

Gu Jinzhi didn't answer.

Looking at her mother, she suddenly felt a little tired and wanted to lean in her mother's arms.

She really acted like a baby, snuggled into her mother's arms, and closed her eyes quietly.

Song Pan'er was stunned, and asked her: "But something happened? The emperor must be in a bad mood recently, did the prince make him angry?"
