Chapter 302 Corner Gate

When Zhu Zhongjun entered the palace, the Empress Dowager was naturally happy.

She held Zhu Zhongjun and said a lot of words.

Gu Jinzhi has always been restless.

The emperor looked at her several times and always felt that she was very abnormal today.

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

The emperor was afraid that he would stare at Gu Jinzhi and cause the Empress Dowager's suspicion, so he accidentally looked at her. But I always feel empty in my heart.

And Zhu Zhongjun is even more abnormal, a little silent, not like the stupid brother in the past.

The emperor's thick eyebrows were slightly twisted.

After talking for a while, the Empress Dowager saw that the emperor was very tired and said, "The emperor hasn't lie down and rested for several days. The situation is gradually stabilizing, and there will be more things to do in the future. The emperor should also go to a bed to nourish his spirit.

Gu Jinzhi hurriedly said, "Xiao Qi won't disturb your majesty's rest. Let's leave first."

Zhu Zhongjun did not listen to Gu Jin's words as usual. He was stunned and then stood up and said, "Queen Mother, brother, Zhong Jun also said goodbye."

The Empress Dowager looked at the emperor.

The emperor also looked at the Empress Dowager.

He saw confusion in the eyes of the Empress Dowager; he also saw fear in Gu Jinzhi's eyes, and Zhu Zhongjun saw strangeness in his eyes.

It's all abnormal.

The king of Luyang never speaks like this, like an adult, respecting the emperor and speaking strangely to the empress dowager.

The emperor was excited.

He didn't say anything more, just nodded.

Now he is really tired, and there is a disaster in front of him. He is not in the mood to delve into what's wrong with the King of Luyang. What is Gu Jinzhi afraid of?

"It's too tired." The emperor said.

Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun got up, saluted the emperor and the empress dowager, and left the Kunning Palace.

The emperor looked at the distant rose and purple figure, and his eyes did not take back for a long time.

A soft sound pulled back his thoughts.

The Empress Dowager covered the tea cup with a little weight on the tea cup.

"...Why is Xiaoqi a little strange today?" The Empress Dowager said to the emperor.

The emperor couldn't help looking at his mother.

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

Compared with Xiaoqi, my mother should be more concerned about Zhong Jun.

The Empress Dowager looked back at the emperor, and a little resolute and cold flashed in her eyes. This reminded him that in those years, his mother and Wan Liufei calculated the queen together, and finally became the queen in addition to Liu Chenfei. The scene of him becoming a prince is vivid in my mind.

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

A mother is not a woman who is indisputable.

She played tricks, and the emperor was not sure that he could take it.

It's just that over the years, there has been no threat around her, so she is relieved to be her empress dowager, put away her edge and enjoy honor.

Thinking of this, the emperor was inexplicably cold.

"Yes, what's wrong with Xiao Qi?" The emperor followed the Empress Dowager's words and said, "Zhong Jun is also a little strange."

The Empress Dowager picked up the tea cup she put down again and gently siped the tea that was a little cold.

All her behaviors and words imply that the emperor is very clear about what happened to Zhong Jun.

But she doesn't want to talk more.

As long as the emperor remembers that Xiaoqi is different...

No matter what happened to Zhong Jun, the Empress Dowager must shift the responsibility to Xiao Qi.

She seems to be very sure that Xiaoqi can bear it.

What's wrong with Zhong Jun?

When he came out of Kunning Palace, the emperor wanted to make his mind clear. But I haven't rested for a long time, my mind is blank, and my thoughts are intermittent. His brain seemed to be crushed by heavy stones, and he was tired of breathing, and he couldn't figure out the messy thoughts at all.

He urgently needs to get some sleep.

It really doesn't work if people don't rest.

He walked back to the Qianqing Palace.

#######

When he came out of the palace, Gu Jinzhi didn't say anything.

She sat in the carriage in silence.

Zhu Zhongjun didn't say anything.

He secretly looked at Gu Jinzhi's face.

Seeing her lowered her eyes and didn't know 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 Jin's way.

"So, the Empress Dowager said that you should bear this matter alone." Zhu Zhongjun said, "Maybe you will feel very hurt. I didn't tell you clearly last night. The Empress Dowager did this to protect me and let the emperor give up on you; I pushed the boat along the water and agreed.

Gu Jinzhi nodded and said, "I know."

Zhu Zhongjun was silent again.

When the carriage moves forward, there will be bumps occasionally.

Zhu Zhongjun didn't say anything more.

Gu Jin's eyes were dozed.

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

"Do you feel like you have been stabbed in the back by me now?" In the quiet carriage, Zhu Zhongjun suddenly asked her again.

His tone was so careless and so natural that Gu Jinzhi almost got out of control.

She didn't open her eyes, but clenched her hand at the bottom of her sleeve slightly and restrained her emotions.

After a long time, she smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I'm used to it!"

Zhu Zhongjun was suddenly in a hurry.

He clenched his fist tightly, and Gu Jinzhi could even hear his joints.

She finally opened her eyes.

Zhu Zhongjun's mood also quickly restrained.

He made himself look innocent, but in fact, he wanted Gu Jinzhi to shout and scold him a few words, so that he would be more comfortable.

However, Gu Jinzhi should not.

Whether in the previous life or this life, Zhu Zhongjun rarely sees who Gu Jinzhi loses his temper with.

If she provokes her, she will ignore people at worst.

Her personality has both advantages and disadvantages.

It is every man's dream not to face a wife who has a bad temper and is hysterical for trivial things. Gu Jinzhi meets such requirements.

But she is slow in everything. It's not that she doesn't care, but that she rarely opens the door of her heart.

There are too few things that can get into her heart.

Once she is not satisfied with anyone, she will not change in her life. She likes a person very lightly, but hates a person very thoroughly.

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

Zhu Zhongjun really wants to say sorry.

When the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say it.

He didn't apologize.

He protected this woman in his way. No matter what she thought, Zhu Zhongjun didn't apologize to her at all.

"I'm always your pawn." Gu Jinzhi said first, "This time, I'm willing. As a chess piece, you should understand that it is up to others to decide where you put it. No matter how tempty the chess game is, it has nothing to do with the chess pieces. This game of chess is played by you, the empress dowager and the emperor. It's up to you to win or lose. I'm only responsible for paving the way for me.

"You are not my pawn." Zhu Zhongjun's voice had no confidence for the first time, "You will be my wife..."

Gu Jinzhi suddenly turned his head and looked at him.

"Real? Zhu Zhongjun, wife, children, parents, who do you care about?" Gu Jinzhi asked him, "I'm your wife. Do you care about me?"

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

Gu Jinzhi looked at his anger and turned his head quietly.

Zhu Zhongjun's breathing became heavy.

He clenched his fists again.

"You think... Do you think I don't care? Zhu Zhongjun couldn't help shouting angrily.

Gu Jinzhi didn't answer, which was an affirmation.

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

He didn't pay attention to Gu Jinzhi again.

Gu Jinzhi didn't talk to him either.

########

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

It was not Ning Xi who accompanied him back this time, but the command of the bodyguard of the royal palace, Chen Dingwen. He is one of Ning Xi's confidants.

All the guards of the royal palace of Luzhou were sent to Annan last year to quell the chaos, and have not yet been recruited.

There are less than a hundred guards left in the royal palace, most of whom are guard leaders and Ning Xi's cronies.

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

Chen Dingwen is only in his twenties.

The conductor Tongzhi is only under the commander of Ningxi, from the third grade of the official. Chen Dingwen has never been on the battlefield, and he is not the person Ning Xi took. He was young, but he was so trusted by Ning Xi that he accompanied Zhu Zhongjun to Beijing. Zhu Zhongjun was very interested in this Chen Dingwen.

He wants to dig talents from Ningxi like Sun Ke, the bodyguard.

"...Since the two courtyards are connected, open a place from here and open a corner door." Zhu Zhongjun strolled around the Gu family's yard and said to the bodyguard Chen Dingwen.

Chen Dingwen hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, don't you need to discuss with the Gu family?"

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

He pretended to be a fool all the way and 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 was an identical face in front of him, but his demeanor and tone had all changed, and it was difficult for anyone to adapt.

Chen Dingwen reacted quickly and did not show anything strange in front of Zhu Zhongjun.

He went to the main courtyard and told Song Paner what Zhu Zhongjun meant.

Song Pan'er is very happy.

Open a corner door. Gu Jinzhi's days in Beijing are still the same as in his mother's home.

"Does that mean the prince?" Song Pan'er asked Chen Dingwen.

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

means Zhu Zhongjun, which means Gu Jinzhi.

Chen Dingwen said, "Yes, the prince said to open a corner door, no need to go through the main door, and it's convenient to come and go."

Song Pan'er nodded: "Go and tell the prince that I will choose an auspicious day and start the work."

Chen Dingwen said yes.

He went back 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 reads some books.

You don't know if he can understand it.

Chen Dingwen conveyed the meaning of Mrs. Gu to Zhu Zhongjun.

Zhu Zhongjun nodded.

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

Gu Jinzhi saw him and didn't talk to him.

He also ignored Gu Jinzhi.

Everyone didn't know the reason, just thought that the two children were fighting again.

After eating, Zhu Zhongjun followed Gu Yanzhen and Brother Xuan to the outer courtyard, and Song Pan'er left Gu Jinzhi to speak.

"What's going on last night when the prince came back in the middle of the night?" Song Paner asked, "I got up early today, and you two entered the palace again. What did you say? Why am I in the clouds?"

Gu Jinzhi did not answer.

She looked at her mother and suddenly felt a little tired and wanted to lean in her mother's arms.

She really acted coquettishly, snuggled up in her mother's arms and quietly opened her eyes.

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

The first update, ask for a pink ticket. RS
