famous eldest daughter

Chapter 490 Sharp Sword
Because before Xiao Yu asked this question, he had been expecting to see Xiao Ke rant, and when Xiao Ke answered the question, his expression was completely sincere. The throat feels stuck.

The door of the martial arts hall opened, and the boy took the first step forward and lit the lights inside.

When Gu Yuqing turned around, she saw Xiao Yu and Xiao Ke standing side by side. One had his head slightly lowered, the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, and there was a smile that was being suppressed between his brows and eyes, while the other had a shaky expression on his face with the corners of his mouth shaking.

"What's wrong?" Gu Yuqing tilted her head and asked, frowning.

"fine!"

"fine!"

Xiao Yu and Xiao Ke said in unison.

"It's been so many years since I've been here, I really miss you." Xiao Yu laughed, took the lead in raising his feet, passed Gu Yuqing, and walked into the martial arts hall while talking, but the smile on his face was as unnatural as it was unnatural. nature.

Gu Yuqing frowned and watched Xiao Yu off.

When Xiao Ke also stepped forward and walked to her side, walking side by side towards the martial arts hall with Xiao Ke, Gu Yuqing asked in a low voice: "Is everything okay?"

Xiao Ke nodded, "I'm fine."

As for whether Xiao Yu was in trouble, it was hard for him to say. He was suppressing laughter in his heart until his intestines convulsed, but his face was serious and unchanging.

Over the years, he has lived in the palace and has not developed anything else. This ability to conceal his emotions is probably unmatched by anyone, as long as he is willing to conceal it.

Xiao Yu, who has always been domineering, sometimes flicks his tongue. Whenever he thinks of his face full of dirt just now, Xiao Ke involuntarily strokes his stomach: I will tell you that I am really struggling to walk?
But no matter how long I hold on, whatever I eat will be my sister’s wish, and I will be willing to hold on longer!
Fortunately, Chinanhou's Mansion is big enough, and the Martial Arts Hall is more than half of Chinanhou's Mansion away from Tongyuan. He has finally felt much more comfortable along the way.

The furnishings of the martial arts hall are still the same as when Xiao Yu practiced martial arts and sword dancing here.

The four walls are covered with all kinds of sharp swords. On three of the walls, there are cabinets as high as one person at the foot of the wall. The swords are still placed on the cabinets, but compared to those on the walls, they are more expensive. Just feel better.

In the southeast corner of the room, a large pear blossom wooden table was placed.

As soon as I caught a glimpse of the wooden table, memories that I had not thought of for many years came flooding back.

Back then, it was in this martial arts hall that Gu Zhen held a cup of tea in his hand, sat behind the wooden table, blew the hot air rising from the tea surface, took a sip of tea, and taught him something, although he seemed calm and relaxed, he could Every word he said came from the bottom of his heart.

"You are a prince, and you have the qualifications and conditions to conquer the world. Among all the princes, His Majesty loves you the most, but you must know that this love is a double-edged sword."

"He can let you enjoy everything that others cannot enjoy without restraint, and even make you jealous, but it can also make others hate you because of this jealousy."

The first time he heard Gu Zhen say such words, he was so horrified that his limbs trembled.

Such words were never mentioned in front of him.

Even if the mother-in-law is a concubine, she just reminds him that he must not be arrogant due to favor, and must not cause trouble everywhere because of the emperor's favor.

Only Gu Zhen could speak so bluntly and sharply.

At that time, he was already familiar with human affairs, and he had experienced some of the dirty tricks in the palace. These words, when he heard them suddenly, seemed to be treason, but after the shock, he calmed down, but It hits the nail on the head, every word is a pearl.

It was also in this martial arts hall that he grew up instantly because of some words for the first time.

"Then what should I do?"

Xiao Yu still remembers deeply that when he asked this question, the ups and downs he experienced in his heart were like bamboo shoots washed by heavy rain. After the rain, they broke through the ground and were unstoppable.

"So what if you hide your edge and become an uneducated person!"

This was Gu Zhen's answer.

From then on, everyone in the civil and military dynasties, and throughout the country, knew that the one who was favored by His Majesty the most but who also caused him the most headaches today was the uneducated and incompetent fourth prince!
He played this unlearned role for several years.

This is the case in front of others, but behind others, you have to work extra hard to constantly make yourself stronger and become the person Gu Zhen calls the person who has the ability to compete with others.

Back then, he once asked Gu Zhen why he said such things to him.

Gu Zhen's answer was very simple, "Entrusted by others."

But who was entrusted by him, Gu Zhen refused to say.

At that time, Xiao Yu was still very worried about this issue, but as he faced more and more dangers and accidents, he gradually forgot about it.

Today, when I revisited my old place, Gu Zhen's words "entrusted by others" clearly appeared in Xiao Yu's ears and mind again.

Who was entrusted by the dignified Marquis Chi Nan to say such risky words to a prince like him?

Could it be that he was sure that he could understand what he meant?
After all, he was just a child at that time.

If he takes what Gu Zhen said back to the palace and repeats it to the emperor, the entire Chinanhou Mansion will face a disaster!

Due to his thoughts, Xiao Yu couldn't help but frown slightly, his mind was heavy, and he was racking his brains to figure out who Gu Zhen was entrusted by back then, when he suddenly heard a sigh from Xiao Ke.

"The pattern on this sword is so unique."

Xiao Yu turned his head and saw Xiao Ke standing in front of the cabinet under the west wall. He pointed at a sword in the middle grid of the second floor from the top and admired it.

After entering the martial arts hall, Xiao Ke glanced at every inch of the room with careful piety and greed, wanting to feel Gu Zhen's aura in this room.

Holding the cabinet with one hand, his slender fingers brushed over the swords in the cabinet one by one. He couldn't help but be attracted by the sword in front of him and couldn't take a step forward. "Sister, can I take it down and have a look?" He pointed to the sword that was held by him. With the sword sighing, Xiao Ke turned his head and looked at Gu Yuqing.

"This is your home." Gu Yuqing said, walking towards Xiao Ke.

She had really only been to this martial arts hall a handful of times in her past and present lives.

When Gu Yuqing passed by, Xiao Yu happened to be in front of Xiao Ke. Their eyes fell on the sword that Xiao Ke picked up, and their hearts suddenly trembled.

The pattern on the scabbard was exactly the same as the Miao border totems on the two rosewood boxes in Gu Yuqing's hands.

With a breath stuck in his chest, Gu Yuqing looked towards Xiao Yu, "It's the same, right?"

Even though Xiao Ke didn't know anything about what happened before, Gu Yuqing didn't want to hide it from him.

Xiao Yu nodded, never taking his eyes away from the scabbard, "It's the same!"

Xiao Ke was baffled by what he heard, but from the sudden change in their expressions, he knew that something important had happened. Without saying anything, he handed the sharp sword in his hand to Xiao Yu's hand, "Take it and take a closer look." .”
