After Shen Qingci and Gu Jinshu entered the palace, the dinner was about to begin. Shen Qingyin, who was sitting at the top, was slightly stunned when she saw the two coming in, and couldn't help but cast her eyes on Zhou Nianzhen.

She remembered that her eldest brother once said that the seventh brother would not enter the palace today, but why did he come with the seventh sister-in-law?

——Did the person in front of me give the order?

When Shen Qingci and Gu Jinshu walked in, many people stared at them. Some were confused, some were stunned, and many people raised their eyebrows. This shows how everyone looked at Shen Qingci's arrival.

It’s also hard to put into words.

Not to mention others, Zhou Nianzhen and Du Chen already had their own thoughts at this time.

Zhou Nianzhen was worried that the people from the Beicang Kingdom had some backup plans. After all, the enemy who was toying with the princess of another country was right in front of him. He might be particularly jealous after meeting him. Although he took a quick glance and saw that he was a little scared in the temple in the past.

The figure has moved, but this meeting is no longer the same as that day.

He glanced at Shen Qingyin with half-closed eyes, but saw that her eyes were unfocused and she didn't know what she was thinking.

After Du Chen glanced at Shen Qingci, he focused most of his attention on Gu Jinshu, and couldn't help but compare her with Gu Jin and the mature and beautiful woman in the scroll.

Gu Jin himself had seen it and had a very good impression. After all, it was because of him that he finally knew the truth. He even offered to help, but the person disappeared in a flash.

When he arrived, he took a detour to Jinzhou to investigate Gu Jin's affairs. There was indeed a man named Gu Jin in that place, but Gu Jin was an honest and dull person. Although he had some talents, he was not very outstanding. The most important thing was that he held the

When Gu Jin's portrait went there, no one in that place knew him.

——In other words, Gu Jin is most likely Gu Jinshu.

As for whether Gu Jinshu was the person in the emperor's dream, he couldn't give an answer at this time. This person looked more immature than that person.

The woman in the emperor's painting has a lingering sadness, but the woman dressed as a woman in front of her looks much more elegant. Of course, in terms of appearance, there doesn't seem to be much difference except for the difference in age.

"Mr. Shen, long time no see."

Shen Qingci and Gu Jinshu had just paid their respects to Zhou Nianzhen when they heard Du Chen's voice coming over lightly, and Shen Qingci looked at Du Chen in surprise: "What the envoy said

But me?"

His attitude of pretending to be confused made Du Chen pause. He didn't expect this person to be so secretive, and he didn't even show any signs of admitting it.

Does he think that if he doesn't admit it, Beicang Kingdom will just give up?

His Majesty did not want to offend the person behind him, and he also intended to marry Princess Qingcheng to Song Yuan. This was considered as acquiescing to this matter. Otherwise, even if he fled back to Beicang Country, he would still be allowed to die without a burial place.

.

Do you really think that his loyal emperor can protect him?

"I have long heard that a person with the same name as me once appeared in the capital of Beicang Kingdom. It is said that he also caused some minor things." His eyes moved and his voice was extremely soft, "Look at the messenger now.

With your attitude, I have no doubts about him."

"..."

Fearless and eloquent, these were Du Chen's comments to Shen Qingci. He did not expect that the person in front of him could actually chat and laugh with him here. If nothing else, his composure alone was unmatched by others.

on.

After Shen Qingci and Gu Jinshu took their seats, the singing and dancing at the banquet had already begun. Du Chen glanced at Shen Qingfei, who was not far away, with a tense expression, and then smiled and said to Zhou Nianzhen: "Your country is indeed full of outstanding people. In the past, Mr. Shen

When he was on a mission to our country, my Majesty once promised that if he could help him find a suitable person, he would reduce the amount of food provided by your country."

"Now that I take a closer look, there are quite a few similarities between the seventh young lady and the person in the painting."

Du Chen's voice was unhurried and seemed like a whisper, but everyone listened, especially Zhou Nianzhen, who frowned tightly and looked at Shen Qingfei with a little more scrutiny.

.

Shen Qingfei felt the emperor's gaze. Although he tried to ignore the feeling like a light on his back, he still clasped his fists and said: "I did see a scroll in your Majesty's place in the past, but the man was about twenty and something.

, but she is not very similar to my sister-in-law."

"Other than age, I don't notice any difference." Du Chen said this calmly with a smile on his lips, talking to Gu Jinshu who was not far away, "I wonder if the Seventh Young Madam has compatriots in her family.

sisters?"

"There are actually two concubines here."

Gu Jinshu always kept a smile on her face, while Du Chen narrowed his eyes. This person seemed a little younger, and her concubine must be even younger.

Therefore, these two people should be excluded.

"That's a pity."

Du Chen had actually gotten a lot of information, and the reason why he told it in public today was just to teach the Shen family a lesson.

It is true that the people of the Beicang Kingdom cannot directly reach out to the imperial court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but it is not difficult to disgust them. Zhou Nianzhen must have doubts about what happened today. Since he has such thoughts, he will

Investigate this matter thoroughly.

After going back and forth, I'm afraid it won't be difficult to figure out what Shen Qingfei is hiding, and my next plan will be easier to implement.

After drinking for three rounds, the emperor left the main seat with his concubines, and everyone stopped for a while and left one after another. Duke Pei on one side took on the responsibility of escorting Du Chen out of the palace. As for Shen Qingfei, he was summoned by the emperor early in the morning.

in front of.

"What did he mean by what he said today?"

Zhou Nianzhen had a dark face, but now he looked a little more iron-blooded and cold-hearted as an emperor should, instead of his usual look of falling into a wealth nest.

Shen Qingfei knew that the matter couldn't be solved today, so he talked about the matter of your scroll in a down-to-earth manner. Zhou Nianzhen's face was also a bit astonished: "In other words, the person in the scroll is indeed similar to Gu Jinshu.

Very similar?"

"Apart from the age difference and the different temperaments, there are some similarities in appearance."

"Gu Mingsheng doesn't know about this?"

"I know, but Wei Chen and Lord Gu both think it's just the same appearance. There are so many people with the same appearance in this world."

"Yeah?"

After listening to Shen Qingfei's words, Zhou Nianzhen glanced at him sideways. Seeing the unrecognizable expression on his face, he asked someone to send Shen Qingfei away. After Shen Qingfei left, Zhou Nianzhen let him go

People went to announce Gu Mingsheng's entry into the palace. After such a long time, it was time for him to meet the secret son planted by his father.
