Chapter 42

When Jiang Shuyao went upstairs, Gu Lian had already arrived.

Gu Lian wore a white long-sleeved gown today, it wasn't dead white, it was a whiter color than off-white.The hair is half tied up with a headband of the same color, and the rest of the hair is loosely scattered on the shoulders.

He was drinking tea to himself.Gu Lian is naturally extremely white, the sun is rare today, and he happened to be by the window, the golden sunlight fell on him, and the clothes embroidered with dark golden patterns followed his movements, faintly visible in the sunlight.

The demeanor of the son of Prince Jing's mansion is nothing to say.Jiang Shuyao stood at the door watching him slowly sipping tea, without moving for a while.

Every time she saw other people's graceful movements like a painting, Jiang Shuyao felt that she had the courage to face the boring etiquette class again.

"Why don't you come in?" After Gu Lian asked, he slowly raised his head, and when he saw Jiang Shuyao, he showed a gentle smile.He was a martial artist, so he had already discovered Jiang Shuyao, and he only asked after waiting for a while.

"Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time." Jiang Shuyao couldn't tell how she felt in her heart, so she walked to Gu Lian and sat down.That's where she usually sits.

Over the years, she watched Gu Lian grow from a sharp and imposing young man to the current desolate and introverted appearance, and she couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion.

"I haven't been here for long." Gu Lian clapped his hands, and someone came in with a teapot and filled the teacup in front of Jiang Shuyao.Later, he left the teapot behind, closed the door and retreated.

However, unlike the tea aroma coming from Gu Lian's teacup, Jiang Shuyao's cup was full of fruity aroma.

Jiang Shuyao couldn't wait for it to cool down, so she took a sip impatiently, and sighed contentedly.This is fruit tea!

When she came here before, she sipped the tea from the tea house and missed the modern fruit tea after a long time.Gu Lian asked her if she had something on her mind?Jiang Shuyao just described it casually.I thought it was just an episode, but I didn't expect that when she came to Xiangmingju later, what was placed in front of her was fruit tea.

Surprised and moved, Jiang Shuyao couldn't help but get closer to Gu Lian.There was nothing she could do to help Gu Lian, so she could only try to be nice to Gu Xi.

She knew that what Gu Lian cared most about was Gu Xi.

Seeing her leaning on the back of the chair with a satisfied face, like a kitten basking in the sun after eating.Although Gu Lian didn't speak, the corners of his mouth curled up silently.

Obviously the number of times she came here was not infrequent, but every time Jiang Shuyao drank the fruit tea she was thinking of, it seemed like she hadn't had it for a long time.Such a demeanor always makes people feel happy.

It was still early, and Jiang Shuyao was not in a hurry to get to the point.On the way, she heard some gossip about Zhuangyuan Lang and Sun Zhi, so she simply asked Gu Lian, "Did you hear about yesterday's incident?"

"nature."

Seeing that Gu Lian had heard of it, Jiang Shuyao was a little curious about his opinion: "What does your son think?"

"People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants." Gu Lian put down the tea in his hand and commented lightly.That Sun Zhi is not satisfied with simply winning a good name, and wants to step on the top of the champion.

Gu Lian shook his head.Zhuangyuanlang, how can anyone step on it?

Seeing that Gu Lian agreed with her so much, Jiang Shuyao was a little excited.She couldn't help asking Gu Lian the question she had been thinking about: "If Sun Zhi is really good at writing, why didn't he take part in the imperial examination? Even if he doesn't care about fame and wealth, how could the Sun family let him do this?"

Speaking of this, Gu Lian also had a whim yesterday, and just sent someone to investigate.He was about to answer, but seeing Jiang Shuyao's urgent face, he rarely felt bad: "Speaking of which, I just found out the result."

Gu Lian paused meaningfully, seeing Jiang Shuyao's eyes lit up.When Jiang Shuyao thought that he was about to tell herself the answer, Gu Lian added slowly: "I was shocked when I first found out."

And then... gone?Jiang Shuyao's eyes widened, and she looked at Gu Lian accusingly.This is gone?How can you not finish talking?
Gu Lian's face was serious, but there was a smile in Danfeng's slender eyes: "Gu is a businessman, Miss Jiang Si wants to get news, how can she not pay the price?"

Jiang Shuyao:!What's the matter with you bro?you've changed!

Jiang Shuyao was wronged and became a 300-jin fat dumpling.

"What does Gu Shizi want?" No way, Jiang Shuyao really wanted to know the answer.The result was already in front of her, and she couldn't help but scratch like a kitten's paw in her heart.

Mainly, Jiang Shuyao really didn't know what she could exchange for.Silver taels?But Gu Lian is much richer than her.

Gu Lian said it casually, seeing that she took it seriously, so he pretended to think about it: "Xi'er was still thinking about you yesterday, so please ask Fourth Miss Jiang to accompany Xi'er when you have time." .”

"Naturally, it just so happens that I haven't been there for a few days. I hope the prince won't think I'm bothering you." Jiang Shuyao readily agreed.

After carefully raising her for so many years, Gu Xi's body is no longer as weak as before.Most of the time, she can play like a normal girl, but she still gets sick easily, so she rarely goes out.

Gu Xi is weaker than others, but she doesn't complain about others, she is a very lively and lovely little girl.Jiang Shuyao is willing to go to her whenever she has time.

It's just that she's been a little busy recently, and it's been a long time since I've been with her.

Although it was a joke, it was indeed the only thing Gu Lian needed.Seeing that Jiang Shuyao promised him that he would no longer be impatient: "Then Sun Zhi has participated in the imperial examination three or four times. Even this year, he has never been absent. However..."

Gu Lian's expression became a little gloomy: "He has never even passed the exam for a scholar."

Jiang Shuyao was startled.Although she expected that the man must not have never taken the imperial examination, but she was still a little shocked when Gu Lian said it himself.

But also understandable.Only if he has no fame, he dared to lie to the princess that he had never done scientific research.But, is he really not afraid of Second Princess Cha?Even if he was able to fool Xue Xuan with an excuse, what about the First Prince?
Judging from Jiang Shuyao's experience of meeting Xue Hui, the eldest prince is definitely not so easy to fool.

But... How did a person who didn't get a scholar write such a poem?

Could it be...Jiang Shuyao thought of a phenomenon that is very common in modern times-he is biased?

Jiang Shuyao also knows that talent or knowledge has nothing to do with character. "Every time righteousness slaughters more dogs, most of them are scholars who are guilty." How many successful scholars in history have abandoned their wives at home?However, whether it was listening to the corners yesterday or today's uproarious messages, Jiang Shuyao inexplicably felt that such a poem with delicate angles but profound meaning should not come from such a person.
