The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 661: Daughter (Part 2)

Gu Jiao has a problem, she gets sleepy when she recites poems.

In the front, I could still grit my teeth and persist, but in the back, I was so sleepy that I didn't know what I wrote.

Even the purse was taken away by Xiao Jiu himself.

Xiao Heng was very angry and funny when he saw the back.

Fortunately, he thought those poems were the literary talent of her own words, but now it seems that he copied them from no one knows where.

Looking at the crooked words on the last few notes, I'm afraid I'm stuck copying, and I don't know where I copied it.

Xiao Heng was so angry that his teeth itched: "I'm so excited for nothing, I won't be fooled by you again, you little liar!"

She must have fallen asleep, Xiao Heng didn't reply any more.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with her, Xiao Jiu flew back to the branch again.

Xiao Heng still couldn't sleep.

It's not about love poetry, he's not so small-minded that he even cares about it.

It was some news he found during the day that made him need to calm down and sort it out carefully.

After Gu Jiao told him that the people behind Nangong Li were the royal family, he went to the busiest teahouse in Shengdu to find a few storytellers to get a general idea of ​​the royal family's background.

I haven't heard much, but I still know a thing or two about the Nangong family.

The fact that Nangong's family is close to the Prince's Mansion has long been a tacit secret in Shengdu.

Prince Zhao lived in the East Palace, while Prince Yan left the palace to build a mansion.

Prince Yan is the second son of the monarch, and his biological mother is Concubine Han.

The son who prepared the stands for him that day was the crown prince's eldest son Ming Junwang.

King Ming Jun and today's Pingyang Academy's kicker Han Che are cousins.

Although there is currently no evidence that the Prince's House instigated the Nangong family, the Prince's House is still the most suspected.

Then the question arises, who is dealing with him in the prince's mansion? And why deal with him?

...

Tonight's Shengdu is extremely sweltering, and it doesn't feel cool at night.

The Duke's Mansion, which had been busy all day, gradually quieted down.

Mu Ruxin sat in the room a little bored.

"Bring some more ice," she said, frowning.

"Miss, what's the matter with you?" the servant girl asked puzzled, two basins of ice had already been placed in the room,

If you let it go, you will catch a cold.

"I'm not happy!" Mu Ruxin said depressingly.

Thinking of what happened in the academy, she felt more and more that Xiao Liulang was hindering her everywhere.

She said angrily: "He just saw that this was a great opportunity to make friends with the three deans, and deliberately snatched away all the serious injuries, leaving only a few minor injuries to me."

The servant girl didn't know how to answer these words.

"Forget it, go to sleep." Mu Ruxin put down her fan, got up and went to bed.

The servant girl came over to put up the curtain for her, and said comfortingly: "Miss, he is just a student who came to the country, and you will soon become the righteous daughter of the Duke of the country. Then let's see how he can compete with you?"

Mentioning this, Mu Ruxin sighed: "You said, we have released the news for so long, and the whole house knows, why is there no movement between the second master and the second lady? Could it be that I have misunderstood the second lady? "

The servant girl said: "How could it be? The Second Madam asked the young lady like that, just trying to find out the tone of the young lady! I guess it must be soon!"

Mu Ruxin lay down and said longingly: "I don't have parents. I was raised by Master. If I really become the Duke's adopted daughter, I must honor him! Make up for... his regret of losing his daughter." !"

Grandpa's courtyard.

The Duke had already rested, but Lian Qiao was careless and accidentally spilled a bowl of tea on the bed.

Lianqiao had no choice but to help Grandpa Guo into the wheelchair, and found a mattress to replace.

Grandpa Guo opened his eyes and rested his hands on the armrests of the wheelchair.

To the right is the bedside table.

On the cabinet was the rouge that Forsythia had just bought from outside and planned to bring back to the house.

She was playing with rouge just now, so she absent-mindedly knocked over the basin where the Duke was going to wipe his hands.

She was so terrified that the rouge lid didn't even have time to close.

Grandpa Guo's right hand is only about two inches away from Rouge, and you can touch it with a slight movement.

However, it is very difficult for the Grand Duke who can't even blink freely to move his fingers precisely.

The Duke of the country stared at the box of rouge, and it took a lot of effort to touch the rouge tremblingly.

His fingers were dipped in a lump of rouge, and with great effort, he wrote a crooked word tremblingly.

...

The next day, Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun went to Tianqiong Academy for class.

As soon as she entered the academy, Gu Jiao felt several inexplicable gazes cast towards her.

"Six Lang!"

A student greeted her with a smile.

She doesn't know.

"Six Lang!"

Another student greeted her with a smile on his face.

She didn't know him.

what's the situation?

I haven't seen you overnight, is everyone so enthusiastic?

"Six Lang!"

I don't know how many strange students greeted me, and finally an acquaintance came.

Zhou Tong.

"Xiao Shun." Zhou Tong stopped in front of Gu Jiao and the two, and greeted Gu Xiaoshun with a smile on his face.

Gu Jiao: "Is something going to happen today? Why are you acting like that?"

Zhou Tong: "What is it like?"

"Liu Lang!" The seventeenth strange student greeted Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao signaled with her eyes: "Just like that."

Zhou Tong looked at the back of the student going away, and smiled suddenly: "You said that everyone knows you, what's so strange? Don't you remember that you won the game yesterday?"

Gu Jiao said: "Then they shouldn't all know me."

It's not all about watching the game.

Zhou Tong chuckled, and grabbed her wrist through the sleeve: "You'll know when you come with me!"

Gu Xiaoshun gritted his teeth, hey, let go of my sister!

Zhou Tong took Gu Jiao to the bulletin board of the academy, which was already full of students from the academy.

"Liu Lang is here!"

Someone in the crowd yelled, and the people who had gathered around the bulletin board suddenly dispersed, making way for Gu Jiao.

This treatment... caught Gu Jiao a little off guard.

Zhou Tong was not polite to them, he cheerfully pulled Gu Jiao to the front, pointed to the bulletin board and said, "Look!"

Gu Jiao stared at it.

On the left side of the bulletin board is posted yesterday's game results and the great commendations for them, and on the right side are their independent portraits, but only Gu Jiao is riding a horse.

She held the reins with one hand and the club with the other.

It was mostly from the back, and she turned her head to reveal half of her side face.

What happened to be the right cheek without a birthmark was exposed, her clothes fluttered, and her hairband flew across her face. She was indescribably heroic, even next to the handsome Mu Qingchen.

Gu Jiao looked at the young man in fresh clothes and angry horse, and almost didn't recognize her.

Is this her in the eyes of others?

Zhou Tong said: "We worked together to draw it, and it took a whole night to draw."

It was only then that Gu Jiao noticed that Zhou Tong's eyes were dark blue, and looking at Zhong Ding and others who were posting portraits, they all had thick dark circles under their eyes.

This is an experience that Gu Jiao never had in her previous life.

Obviously in her previous life she came first in the general exam, won prizes in competitions and was soft-handed, but no one could get close to her.

Or she didn't want to get close.

Her status meant that she could not have any friends.

"How are we doing?" Zhou Tong asked expectantly.

Gu Jiao's eyes swept across Zhou Tong, Zhong Ding and everyone who went to the competition site yesterday, and everyone also looked at her, with anticipation and apprehension in their eyes.

"It's okay." Gu Jiao said.

Everyone smiled in relief.

They are students of the Wenju Department, and they are not bad in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but for some reason, they must wait until Gu Jiao personally admits their paintings before they seem to be done.

"Aren't you going to class?" Gu Jiao asked lightly.

Zhou Tong smiled: "Go to class!"

Gu Jiao turned around and walked away coolly.

After walking a few steps, he seemed to say unintentionally: "Draw a few more pictures, the walls at home are a bit empty."

...

Tianqiong Academy hasn't been this beautiful for a long time. Although they are known as the Royal Academy, in fact, it was the scenery many years ago.

It was seventeen years ago that the last time their academy had the No. 1 Scholar. After that, let alone the No. 1 Scholar, they never even got the No. 2 and No. 1 prizes.

It is not uncommon for people to laugh at people who cannot achieve martial arts without writing.

Now that he has won two knockout matches in a row and defeated two powerful academies, he is extremely proud.

Dean Cen was also very happy, and called Gu Jiao and Mu Qingchen to his duty room and praised: "...these two games were indeed played well, and they played at the level of our Sky Academy, but don't worry about it. Be proud, train hard, and fight for the next game to win glory for the Academy!"

The four of Mu Qingchen cupped their hands.

Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows and said, "Is this the end?"

Dean Cen was taken aback.

Gu Jiao said: "Shouldn't there be something practical? For example...a bonus?"

Dean Cen: "..."

"Cough!" Dean Cen coughed calmly, and said seriously, "The academy has been short of funds recently, next time you win, give it together!"

Gu Jiao caught the point: "Then if you lose, you won't give it?"

Dean Cen: "Ahem! You boy, can you keep your money in a few words? How can a person who reads sage books smell like money?"

Gu Jiao asked: "Then should I give it or not?"

Dean Cen: "..."

Is it too late for him to say no?

On the way back to Mingxintang, Mu Qingchen asked Gu Jiao: "Are you short of money?"

Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows: "Well, do you have a way to make money?"

Mu Qingchen said: "I can lend it to you, as much as you want."

"There's no need to borrow it." Gu Jiao waved her hand, she is not in short supply now, she is just planning for a rainy day.

Gu Yan will have surgery next month, and it may cost a lot of money.

Gu Jiao said seriously: "If you have a way to make money, call me, I won't treat you badly, let you be a middleman to earn a little difference!"

Mu Qingchen: "..."
