Chapter 495 He Lied
Gu Changgeng looked away without a trace, and said: "...it's nothing, just some military affairs, the emperor announced me to enter the palace, I thought it would be over soon, I never wanted to wait for the emperor to finish, it's already so late gone."

"is it?"

Lin Qingqian thought that Duan Fei had returned to the frontier to garrison, and that additional troops were stationed on the western Chu border. She asked, "Is something wrong with General Duan? Or the Western Chu border..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Changgeng changed the subject and said, "No, it's just a trivial matter. You haven't had your dinner yet, have you? But are you hungry? I'll order my servants to prepare some food. Do you want some?"

Lin Qingqian remained silent, looking at Gu Changgeng with complicated eyes.

He instinctively told himself that Gu Changgeng had something to hide from her.

Just now he purposely changed the subject, he didn't want to say more, and said that someone would prepare a meal, but he should have thought that she had already used it with Su Yingxue and others in the winery.

Seeing that she was silent, Gu Changgeng asked, "What's the matter? Don't want to eat, but want snacks?"

Lin Qingqian withdrew the hand held by Gu Changgeng unobtrusively, smiled slightly, and said, "No need, I used it with Yingxue and the others at the winery. Brother Changgeng has been busy all day today, so he must be tired too. You rest well, I will go back to the prime minister's mansion first."

Gu Changgeng said: "I'll take you back."

Lin Qingqian: "No need, I'll go back with Hanyue, brother Chang Geng don't need to worry."

"Clean and shallow..."

"Brother Chang Geng, I'm leaving first."

After finishing speaking, Lin Qingqian walked out of the general's mansion first, and Gu Changgeng chased him outside. Lin Qingqian had already gotten into the carriage, and before putting down the curtain, she glanced at him and said, "Brother Chang Geng, you go in, I'm leaving."

Gu Changgeng hesitated to speak, but finally said: "Where do you want to go some other day, I will accompany you again."

"it is good."

Putting down the curtain, Lin Qingqian ordered: "Let's go back home."

Han Yue said: "Yes, Miss."

The carriage slowly drove away from the entrance of the General's Mansion. Gu Changgeng stood outside the General's Mansion, looking at the direction the carriage was going away, slightly distracted.

Until Han Ye came over, "Young Pavilion Master, won't you go in?"

Gu Changgeng looked at him sideways, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Do you also feel that Qingqian is angry?"

Han Ye was taken aback, seeing Gu Changgeng's serious question, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter, but luckily he held back, coughed lightly, and replied: "Young Pavilion Master, what's the matter... you're already with three people today. Miss made an appointment to meet, but she waited for you for a whole day, the little girl will inevitably feel a little angry in her heart."

Gu Changgeng asked again: "Then how can I make her...not get angry?"

"This……"

Gu Changgeng's question also stumped Han Ye, and he didn't know how to make the woman not angry, but after thinking about it, he was agitated, thinking that when he was in the Sun Moon Pavilion, when others wanted to make his wife happy, they only wanted to make his wife like him thing.

Han Ye: "This subordinate knows! It is to give the woman something she likes, so that she will not be angry."

What does she like?

Gu Changgeng's first thought was silver, but it's never appropriate to give silver. When she thought of the snacks he brought back from the prime minister's mansion when she was in the prime minister's mansion, she would eat them with satisfaction, especially candied haws.

So Gu Changgeng decided to go out of the house tomorrow to buy some snacks that Lin Qingqian likes and send them over.

……

The willow garden of the prime minister's mansion.

Lin Qingqian went into the back room and told Chun Xia Qiu Dong to retreat, so she didn't have to stay for a waiter, and sat at the table by herself, staring at the candlelight and distracted.

She never inquired about Gu Changgeng's court affairs, but today Gu Changgeng was obviously hiding something, she would not be angry, but she always felt a little depressed.

She worried about him all day, but he still had something to hide from her, so she would naturally be unhappy.

the next morning.

Lin Qingqian got up and had breakfast, and went to Jinglan Garden to greet the old lady. When she came out, she ran into Chu Lingyun, but Chu Lingyun took the initiative to step aside, and she walked past Chu Lingyun without squinting. Too lazy to take a second look.

Therefore, he never noticed that Chu Lingyun was observing her carefully, and when he saw that her expression was normal, a look of unwillingness flashed in her eyes.

Lin Qingqian returned to the willow garden, Chun Xia blessed her body, and said: "Miss, Miss Su is here, and this servant invites her to sit down in the front hall, you should go quickly."

Yingxue is here?

Lin Qingqian was a little surprised. After all, the two met yesterday. She nodded slightly and said, "I see, let's pass."

"Yes."

After going to the front hall, when Su Yingxue saw her coming in, she smiled and said: "Chun Xia said you went to the old lady's courtyard, so you're back?"

"I just went to pay my respects to my grandmother. My grandmother will go to the Jingxin Temple to pray for blessings later, so I didn't stay long and came back."

Su Yingxue said: "I see."

Lin Qingqian walked over to sit down, and asked puzzledly: "You suddenly came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to look for me, but is there something wrong?"

"It's nothing, I saw you went to the General's Mansion with great anxiety yesterday, I was worried, so I came over to ask, did you see Chang Geng yesterday? Why did he go?"

"Yesterday I was waiting for Brother Chang Geng's return at the General's Mansion, and I saw him. It was the Emperor who announced him to enter the palace to discuss matters."

Su Yingxue was startled, and looked at Lin Qingqian strangely: "You said the emperor Xuan Changgeng entered the palace to discuss matters?!"

Lin Qingqian: "Not bad, what's wrong?"

Su Yingxue said: "Shen Fei went to the Su residence to look for me this morning. I specifically asked, did he meet Chang Geng when he entered the palace yesterday? He said no, and he even asked the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army on duty at the gate of the palace. Chang Geng didn't enter at all yesterday. After passing the palace, how could it be that the emperor announced him to enter the palace to discuss matters!"

When Lin Qingqian heard this, the expression on her delicate face suddenly changed, she pursed her lips tightly.

Su Yingxue noticed something, and said, "Qingqian, could it be that you heard wrong?"

impossible!
She heard what Gu Changgeng said with her own ears, how could she hear it wrong!It can only be that Gu Changgeng lied yesterday.

Lin Qingqian suppressed her complicated emotions, smiled at Su Yingxue with the corners of her mouth pulled, and said, "Maybe... I'm a little tired today, so I won't be with you anymore, Yingxue, you should go home first."

"Isn't it sick?"

"No, I didn't sleep well yesterday."

"Okay, then you have a good rest, I will come to you again some day."

Lin Qingqian: "Yes."

After Su Yingxue left, Lin Qingqian stared at the white porcelain teacup on the table, her thoughts surging.

Gu Changgeng had concealed something from her yesterday, and she had expected it in her heart, but today Su Yingxue told her that Gu Changgeng was indeed lying to her, and she would inevitably be angry.

What was Gu Changgeng doing yesterday?Why lie?
……

Gu Changgeng personally bought snacks on the street, and was about to send them over when Han Ye came on a horse and said, "Young Pavilion Master, someone from the palace has come to the General's Mansion to send a message, the emperor wants you to come into the palace now."

"Now? What did the emperor say?"

"No, but it looks like you are in a hurry, Young Pavilion Master, you should hurry up and enter the palace."

Gu Changgeng thought for a moment, then handed the snacks he bought to Han Ye, "I'll go into the palace, you send these to the prime minister's mansion to Qingqian, and say I'll go see her after I'm done."

Han Ye said: "Yes, Young Pavilion Master, the subordinates know."

Gu Changgeng nodded, mounted his horse and headed towards the palace.

……

willow garden.

After an unknown amount of time, a knock on the door brought Lin Qingqian back to her senses. It was Han Yue's voice, and she said, "Come in."

Hanyue pushed the door open, put the snacks she was holding on the table, and said with a smile: "Miss, these are sent by Master Shaoge Han Ye, and they are all your favorite snacks, including sweet-scented osmanthus cake and candied haws... "

Lin Qingqian looked at the snack in front of her, but did not show any joy, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Chang Geng ordered Han Ye to send it?"

"Yes, Han Ye said, these were bought by the Young Pavilion Master himself, and he was going to send them here, but the emperor suddenly announced him to enter the palace on the way, so he asked Han Ye to bring them first, saying that he would come to see you when he was done."

After the words fell, Lin Qingqian's expression darkened, and she said coldly, "I don't want it!"

Hanyue froze for a moment. "what?"

Lin Qingqian said: "I don't want it! You send these things back to the General's Mansion!"
