famous eldest daughter

Chapter 258
Jixiang arranged the dishes again, and after dinner, Gu Yuqing helped Jixiang play on the swing frame under the moonlight.

The swing was swinging, and the night wind blew by my ears, blowing away the broken hair on my forehead. After the beginning of autumn, the night style was a bit colder, and it was already faintly tinged with frost.

Although it was cold, it made Gu Yuqing feel particularly sober.

Tomorrow's palace banquet and the party must be extremely dangerous. If they are not careful, not only her, but the entire Chi Nanhou Mansion may be in danger.

Gu Yuqing really wanted to tell Xiao Yu the news she received today. With him here, she always felt a little more at ease, but after thinking about it, she gave up.

He is a prince and has an immeasurable future. She cannot be so selfish. If Chu Tiange succeeds in his evil plan, she will ruin his life by involving Xiao Yu for nothing.

The swing rises and falls again, the ups and downs are very much like Gu Yuqing's heart.

Here, Gu Yuqing is carefully planning for tomorrow's palace banquet, but Xiao Yu, who is far away in another corner of Kyoto, is not idle either.

There were several bright lamps burning in the study. Xiao Yu was slumped in a large chair, separated by a desk, his eyebrows were deep in thought, his face was dark, and his drooping eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, making it difficult to see clearly the bottom of his eyes. The situation is changing, but you can also know that his heart is tumbling at this moment.

The hot tea at hand had already cooled down, so Ming Lu Tan moved it away and took another cup.

In front of the desk, there stood a secret guard in gray cloth, reporting in a plain voice.

"... There is news in the palace that the prince Chu Tiange of Nanyue has been in close contact with the princess in the past few days and they have a very happy conversation. For this reason, the queen also called the princess to give instructions. However, it seems that it is not What's the purpose? The princess immediately went to the queen's palace, and then accompanied the prince of Nanyue to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers."

After the secret guard finished speaking, Xiao Yu's hand froze as he rubbed the center of his brow, "Aside from her close contacts with Chu Tiange, who else does she have a lot of contacts with?"

This Xiao Jingyu is such a busybody, how come she is everywhere!

Xiao Yu sighed helplessly.

She is a princess who is the daughter of the empress, and her status is so noble. Doesn’t she know what the defense of men and women is, what etiquette is, how can she have too much contact with Chu Tiande, a prince from South Vietnam!

It was impossible to avoid this kind of thing, but it was better for her to rush towards it!
Without thinking, the secret guard immediately said after hearing this: "In addition to contacting the Prince of Nanyue, the princess has also met His Highness the Third Prince several times."

Xiao Yu continued to rub his eyebrows, "How many times is it?"

The secret guard thought for a while and said firmly: "Six times, three times in the princess's Hehuan Palace, one in the Royal Garden, and the other two times in the Qihuang Pavilion not far outside the Hehuan Palace. Every time they met, they would retreat to the left and right. , the conversation only lasts for a few cups of tea."

Xiao Yu's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and he looked at the secret guard with sharp eyes, casting a sharp edge like the tip of a knife.

If it weren't for Xiao Yi's participation, he could still think that Xiao Jingyu was attracted by Chu Tiange's beauty, so she stayed with him regardless of honor.

But with Xiao Yi's participation, this matter is not that simple.

The last time Xiao Jingyu kidnapped Gu Yuqing, it was at the instigation of Xiao Yi. This Xiao Yi was simply abominable!
It's a shame that Xiao Jingyu, a brainless person, is being used as a gunman many times and yet he is happy to do so.

After the secret guard finished saying everything he wanted to report, Xiao Yu gave several orders to punish him.

Taking a sip of the hot tea at the right temperature, Xiao Yu stood up and walked out of the study, pacing back and forth with his eyebrows furrowed under the clear moonlight.

Xiao Jingyu's willingness to approach Chu Tiange must have been under Xiao Yi's instructions. Xiao Yi wanted to use Chu Tiange through Xiao Jingyu to achieve his goals.

As shrewd as Chu Tiange, he was able to win the court battles in South Vietnam without losing. How could he be deceived by Xiao Jingyu's tricks? If he was willing to spend so much time playing Tai Chi with Xiao Jingyu, he was probably using Xiao Jingyu to realize his own goals. Purpose.

Although Xiao Jingyu's scheming is far different from these two, she is not really brainless. If she is willing to work so hard, she will definitely benefit from it.

Then these three people have a common purpose.

As his thoughts deepened, Xiao Yu's sigh became heavier.

And the queen, if she really wanted to stop Xiao Jingyu from getting close to Chu Tiange, she could find any excuse to shut her up and think about her past, and then let her out after Chu Tiange left Kyoto.

But the queen turned a blind eye and only asked her to give symbolic instructions in the past. For Xiao Jingyu, if the instructions had worked, she would not be like this now.

Chu Tiange's plan must be inseparable from the Chinanhou Mansion.

What about Xiao Yi, Xiao Jingyu and the queen?

The last time Xiao Yi instigated Xiao Jingyu to kidnap Gu Yuqing was to test his hidden power in the palace. This time, it can be assumed that Xiao Yi's target is still himself behind Gu Yuqing.

As for Xiao Jingyu, it would make sense to say that she was jealous of Gu Yuqing being favored by the Queen Mother.

But what about the queen? Why does the queen want to wade into this muddy water?

As shrewd as a queen, she cannot be as naive as Xiao Jingyu.

The seemingly chaotic thoughts were straightened out little by little, and a vague but sure answer came to Xiao Yu's mind.

And pro!

As soon as these two words came into his mind, Xiao Yu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

If Chu Tiange asked his father to marry a noble daughter of this dynasty, his father would definitely agree to it so that the two countries could live in peace and not suffer war.

After all, marriage has always been a method that emperors have used for a long time.

But even if he agreed, his father would never agree to marry Gu Yuqing to Chu Tiange, and even if he married Xiao Jingyu, his father would never touch Gu Yuqing.

Putting aside everything else, Gu Zhen, who was good at fighting behind Gu Yuqing, was his father's biggest fear.

If Gu Yuqing is really sent to South Vietnam, one can imagine Gu Zhen's attitude if there is a war with South Vietnam in the future.

……

In this way, it can be explained why the queen and Xiao Jingyu were so active and attentive to Chu Tiange. It seems that the father vaguely revealed something to the queen, which touched the bottom line of the queen's love for her daughter.

What about Xiao Yi...

The cold night wind brought frosty air, causing Xiao Yu's clothes to fly. Under the clear moonlight, his handsome face was like a sharpened sword, with sharp edges and a cold air that could not be looked directly at.

If you want to touch his girl, you have to see if he agrees.

Anyone who dares to touch Gu Yuqing, whether it is the queen of this dynasty or the prince of a foreign country, Xiao Yu will never let him succeed!
The deep and deep eyes are like a dark swamp, which makes people feel frightened when they look at them.

Towards the end of the day, the bustling and noisy Chinanhou Mansion finally gradually became quiet. Occasionally, a dog barked in the distance, which highlighted the silence.

At a glance, he saw Ruyi entering the yard as light and dexterous as a cat. Gu Yuqing got up from the swing, supported Jixiang and headed towards the bedroom, with Ruyi following closely behind.

Reclining on the bed and sitting down, Gu Yuqing took a sip of hot tea from Ji Xiang and looked at Ruyi, "How is it?"
