Chapter 420: out of palace
Chapter 420 Leaving the Palace
The palace banquet is now coming to an end.
Sure enough, after confirming the choice of relatives, the emperor smiled and bestowed a few rare dishes and a pot of wine. In less than half an hour, the palace banquet was over.
Ruan Youqing did not go back directly with Li Ange and the others, but stood on the stone steps outside Changcui Palace, eagerly looking forward to the people who came out from behind.
After a while, the person I was thinking of came.
"Waiting for me?" Gu Changan saw the charming person waving at him in the distance, and he, who was still indifferent just now, immediately walked towards Ruan Youqing with a smile like a spring breeze blowing on his face.
The few people who followed behind him tremblingly froze for a moment, and stood there in a daze.
They are just a few officials who have just been promoted, and they just got the qualifications to attend this kind of palace banquet today.
Gu Shoufu's reputation is known to everyone, but they still mustered up the courage to consider how to get close for a long time.
As a result... Gu Shoufu, who was exuding a cold aura of not getting close to strangers just now, changed his face so quickly...
"Could it be... that is... Mrs. Chief Assistant?"
"Looking at the intimacy of the two, it should be. Let's... wait for a while... maybe, Gu Shoufu and his wife will feel better after talking with their wife... then they won't be cold-faced with us..."
"Then...wait a while...?"
At this time, Gu Chang'an, who walked to Ruan Youqing's side, was stretching out his hands to rub her hair familiarly, and after rubbing a few times, he continued: "Do you want to ask, why did you suddenly think of Nangong Liuyun and Wei Wang? Is the world compatible?"
Ruan Youqing nodded quickly, his watery eyes were full of curiosity.
Seeing this, Gu Changan rolled his throat, and continued to speak: "Our royal family is not prosperous, and we have a lot of famous ladies in Ningguo, so we can't easily take advantage of outsiders."
"Hmm... Is this really the reason?"
"Yes, although it sounds absurd, the emperor did tell me that he is not willing to let the three precious sons marry a foreign princess. The second prince is the best candidate for the prince, the least likely. The third prince is simple-minded and easily deceived That Nangong Liuyun deceived. The words of the fourth prince...he once came to the emperor and said that he wanted to marry a heroine like...um...mother-in-law..."
"Hmm... like mother?" Ruan Youqing chuckled and said, "Then he might be single for the rest of his life. It's just... the emperor is cunning enough, his son was reluctant... so he pushed the prince of Wei out."
Gu Changan smiled and said, "Wei Jue can restrain her."
Ruan Youqing pouted, but neither refuted nor agreed.
Wei Jue's temperament is indeed interesting.
However... what happens next... still depends on Wei Jue himself.
After the two of them said a few more words, Gu Changan took Ruan Youqing's hand apologetically and said, "I still need to discuss some matters with the emperor. You go back to the mansion first, and I'll be back in less than an hour. I Looking for someone to take you back?"
"No need, I'll just go back by myself." "That's right, no one in the palace can do anything to you." As he spoke, Gu Changan hooked the tip of her nose dotingly.
Ruan Youqing tried hard to hide his discomfort, and after saying goodbye to Gu Changan, he walked out of the palace with a fan.
By the time she was talking to Gu Changan, those who attended the palace banquet had almost all left.
Therefore, when walking on the long palace road, it will inevitably appear a little lonely.
However, Ruan Youqing didn't care about these things at this time. She was thinking about whether to tell Gu Changan about her loss of internal strength.
Since she found out about this matter until now, she has never mentioned it to Gu Changan.
One is that he is afraid that he will be worried, and the other is that if Gu Changan finds out, he will definitely send someone to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Whether it is or not, once it is found out that she is pregnant...she wonders if Gu Changan will have the same complicated mood as her.
Just as she was thinking about this matter, someone behind her suddenly stopped her.
"Miss Ruan, no, you should be called Mrs. Gu now, do you mind if I come with you?"
It was... Nangong Liuyun?
Ruan Youqing calmed down the expression just now before turning to look at Nangong Liuyun.
Behind the other party, the person who looked at her today followed.
However, it's just walking together...the other party can't do anything.
Thinking of this, Ruan Youqing smiled and nodded.
At first, she thought that Nangong Liuyun would stab her a few words, but in the end...she was unusually quiet and really just walked with her.
The last time we went to Guz together, because she was busy with her own affairs, she didn't know when the siblings left.
Nangong Liuyun... seems to have changed a bit.
Become... not as spoiled and unreasonable as before.
It's just that the more this is the case, the easier it is for people to be wary.
Being on guard, Ruan Youqing naturally wouldn't take the initiative to say anything to Nangong Liuyun.
Because of the silence, both of them walked a little fast, and after a while, they arrived outside the palace.
Until now, Nangong Liuyun slowly opened his mouth: "My sedan chair is over there, so I will leave first. Mrs. Gu, can you come to my place someday when you are free?"
Ruan Youqing was slightly stunned, she really didn't know what the two of them had to talk about.
It's just that the other party has already said it... If she refused directly, it would seem that she is short-tempered.
"I'm going back to Ruan Mansion tomorrow morning, how about... tomorrow night?"
"Okay." Nangong Liuyun curled his lips into a smile, and looked at the people beside him with deep meaning in his eyes: "Did you hear that, tomorrow afternoon, help me spare some time for the princess."
The masked man gave a low hum and didn't say much.
Looking at the back of Nangong Liuyun leaving, Ruan Youqing narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment.
But she really couldn't think of any other plots by Nangong Liuyun.
However, the heart of defense is indispensable.
…
When Ruan Youqing returned to Ruan Mansion and lay on the bed after washing, she closed her eyes wearily.
It's just that his hands were gently caressing his stomach, and after a long sigh, he murmured to himself: "My child... If it's really because of you... Mother loses all her internal energy... Mother really doesn't care at all. I don't want to blame you..."
When she was about to fall into a dream in a daze, she suddenly felt that someone was holding her carefully in her arms.
Gu Changan is back.
Feeling the warmth, Ruan Youqing regained consciousness, opened his eyes wide and looked up at Gu Changan. Seeing this, her heart beat faster and she couldn't help kissing him.
The sound of breathing overlapped, and Gu Changan finally couldn't help but said with a hoarse voice: "Today...is it okay..."
Obviously already married as a woman, Ruan Youqing still blushed like a girl.
Looking at Gu Changan's eyes as deep as the night sky, Ruan Youqing couldn't bear to refuse, so he hummed in a low voice.
As soon as her voice fell, Gu Changan turned over by cleverness.
"This time, change the position."
