Rebirth after waste

Chapter 155

When Liu Shanggong came to deliver a message to Gu Yunxian, she was sitting by the window seriously embroidering a sachet.On the lake-green brocade are finely stitched peach blossoms, like green peaches in the forest, really beautiful.The sound of knocking on the door startled her suddenly, and she stuffed the sachet under the cushion almost reflexively, and got up to open the door after she calmed down for a while.

"Miss San, the Empress invites you to come over." Liu Shanggong saluted and said with a smile.

Gu Yunxian nodded, "I'll go now."

Liu Shanggong thought for a while, and added, "His Royal Highness is also there, Miss San has to cook tea for His Royal Highness, are you ready?"

Gu Yunxian's heart tightened, and after a while he smiled and said: "My lord, don't worry, my aunt has known about meeting Ayun a few days ago, and Ayun understands."

Entering the Jiaofang Hall, I saw Ji Xun and the queen sitting opposite each other, talking with a smile.Through the bead curtain, she only felt that he was smiling with hidden meaning, which made her uneasy.

Liu Shanggong lifted the bead curtain for her, and she knelt down and saluted, "Ayun sees my aunt, and sees His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Empress Gu replied as before: "It's all from my family, Yunniang, why are you so polite? Get up quickly." Pointing to Ji Xun, "This is your cousin."

She turned her head to look at Ji Xun, but saw him stroking his chin and looking at her curiously, as if the two of them really met for the first time.

She got up and walked slowly in front of him, just as happy as before, "Ah Yun has seen my cousin."

According to the established script, he should get up and bow to her, saying "cousin is polite".However, from the very beginning of today, Gu Yunxian knew that he would never follow the script given to him.

He smiled very comfortably, looked at her carefully again, then turned to Queen Gu and said: "I seem to have seen this sister before."

Gu Yunxian heard the sound of himself taking a deep breath...

calm down.Don't be seen by others.

Since reuniting with him in Shanglin Garden half a year ago, Gu Yunxian has maintained a secret relationship with the current crown prince as the queen's niece who lives in Jiaofang Palace.At first he wanted to come to her every now and then, but now the two of them had never been formally introduced by the queen, and they had no chance to meet legitimately.Every time he came to Jiaofangdian to say hello, she had to avoid him according to the rules.Under such circumstances, if you tell the queen that they have met in private, it may make the queen think otherwise.You know, although Empress Gu wanted her to be her daughter-in-law later, she didn't have that plan at this time.If she behaved like this, the queen might treat her as a vixen with ulterior motives.

Gu Yunxian told Ji Xun her worries, and he took it very seriously, reduced the number of meetings, and made thorough preparations for each meeting.But even so, Gu Yunxian was still terrified.Seeing her trembling look, Ji Xun once said with a smile that the atmosphere is really weird, and the only word "cheating" can sum it up...

Finally, it was the day when Empress Gu formally arranged for them to meet, and before Gu Yunxian could say with emotion that the years of cheating were finally over, he was unwilling to be lonely and made these moths!

"Oh?" Empress Gu raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Have you seen it? When?" Her eyes fell back on Gu Yunxian with some doubts.

Seeing Gu Yunxian trying to hide his nervousness, Ji Xun smiled softly, "Mother, don't you think this third younger sister looks somewhat similar to Yun Han? They are both delicate and graceful. Sure enough, all of Gu's sisters are like this." You are so outstanding, you are really a beauty!"

Empress Gu was amused by him, "It's because you talk so much. Yunniang, quickly make a cup of tea for your cousin, and shut his mouth."

"No." Gu Yunxian replied in a low voice.

She performed the tea ceremony in front of him as before, with elegant and skilled postures.When she handed the cup of "Purple Bamboo Shoots" to him, he took it with a smile and said, "Thank you, sister." His voice was as frivolous as ever.

...This time, it went according to the script.

Not long after she returned to the room that day, he followed her.She was sulking at the time, but suddenly she was hugged from behind.

She was surprised for a moment, but immediately understood who it was.

"Why did you come here?" She turned around and said urgently, "If someone sees you, you won't be able to tell. Get out!"

"Don't worry, don't worry." He comforted, "Everyone outside has been taken away by me, and they won't be able to come back for a while, don't worry."

"That doesn't work either, you get out!"

He ignored her protest, hugged her in his arms, took a long time to take a deep breath, "I haven't seen you for half a month, I miss you very much."

Such a straightforward confession, with the heat of his breath blowing against her face, made her shy.

That's right, during this time she has been preparing for today's meeting, learning how to cook tea and etiquette, and there are always many people around her.The two thought that they would meet formally anyway, so they decided to put up with it for the time being, so as not to cause more disputes.

After all, they really haven't seen each other for more than half a month.

"Did you miss me these days?" He hugged her for a while, then resumed his unruly temper, "Tell the truth."

"I'm so busy every day, I don't have time." She was not polite, she broke away from him and sat back on the cushion by the window.

"No?" He moved closer, "Not at all?"

"Not at all."

He looked serious, "Did you finish the sachet I asked you to make last time?"

She glanced at him and said deliberately, "I forgot."

Today, she repeatedly refuted his face, and she really felt that he had gone too far just now, and challenged her tolerance in front of her aunt, which scared her enough.

Seeing her provocative face, he suddenly smiled, his eyes full of misery, "If you forgot, what is under the mat?"

Gu Yunxian looked down, only to realize that just now he sat too hastily, the cushion was a little crooked, half of the sachet hidden underneath was exposed, and the bright red peach blossoms were particularly eye-catching.

She immediately wanted to hold it in her hand, but he took the first step.With one hand, he was coping with her rushing to snatch her, and with the other hand, he held up the sachet, and slowly read the half-embroidered poem on it, "Spring is full of peach blossoms, I can't tell..." Suddenly After a pause, he tilted his head and asked, "What is the second half of the sentence?"

She changed several positions but couldn't grab the sachet, so she couldn't help but annoyed: "I don't know!"

"You don't even know what you embroidered?" He laughed, "When did my little Yunniang become so fond of lying?"

Seeing the smile in his eyes, she was suddenly discouraged and turned her head away from him.

Ah, there was trouble.He groaned inwardly, rubbing his nose in embarrassment, "Uh, return the sachet to you..."

She ignores him.

"Don't be angry, I don't...that's not what I mean...." He struggled to explain, "I just...."

"You deliberately want to see me make a fool of yourself, don't you?" She turned her head suddenly and stared at him with piercing eyes. "You must find it funny to see me so nervous in front of my aunt?"

"It's quite... No, no!" Noticing her murderous eyes, he collected his face and swore to the sky, "I definitely didn't mean to tease you, I just..."

"Just what?"

He paused, his eyes suddenly softened, "I'm just so happy."

She was stunned.

"The queen mother officially introduced us, and things will be easy in the future. If I find another opportunity to meet you, it won't be so suspicious. Maybe we can get married without waiting for two years..."

When she heard what he said before, she didn't feel much better, but when she heard the last sentence, her cheeks flushed suddenly, and she lowered her head shyly.

Seeing this, he was amused and helpless, "No, we've been married for more than ten years, why are you shy about getting married now?"

She blushed and bit her lips and said, "I want you to take care of it!"

Ji Xun: "...."

The matter of that day was so confused, when Ji Xun went out, she suddenly turned around and quickly inserted something into her bun.

She reached out to touch it, but he held it.Staring at her hair, he read softly: "Spring is full of peach blossom water, and I don't know where to find the fairy source."

It was the poem she embroidered on the sachet, and he clearly knew the second half of it.

"Take care of yourself, I'll go back first." He said, kissed her on the forehead, and left with a low smile.

She watched his back, and slowly reached out to take off the hairpin he put on her.But I saw a few rubies inlaid on the top of the red gold hairpin, which looked like peach blossoms in spring when put together.

A smile unconsciously formed on her lips.

Spring is full of peach blossoms and water, I don't know where to find the fairy source.

In fact, where do I need to find any fairy source?Wherever you are, is my fairyland.
