Chapter five hundred and ninety first entertainment
The next day, Gu Xinian calmly put on his official uniform and went to the Ministry of Household Affairs Office for duty. Everyone in the Ministry of Household Affairs had already heard the news, and they were not surprised when they saw Gu Xinian. Instead, they smiled even more warmly and attentively, and one by one came over to greet him.
Even so many people who filed memorials and impeachments failed to bring down Gu Shilang, which shows how strong the holy family of Gu Shilang is. If the prince ascends the throne and becomes emperor in the future, Gu Xinian will be even more majestic in the court. In this way
Of course, it is necessary to establish a good relationship with the characters as early as possible. If this is not possible, it is better to use condoms.
If Gu Xinian is willing, he can definitely make people feel like a spring breeze.
This was the case today. Gu Shilang, who had a somewhat arrogant temperament, was surprisingly easy-going and approachable. Everyone who had the courage to come and get close to him was secretly happy. Some of the bold ones simply said shamelessly: "Master Gu is staying in the house.
In the past few days, we have been very worried, but we didn't dare to visit. Fortunately, the emperor is aware of everything and has not been deceived by those with ulterior motives. As soon as Mr. Gu comes back, we will feel reassured. If you don't dislike it,
I am hosting a banquet in Yipinlou tonight, and I would like to invite you to honor me. This can be regarded as my congratulations to you for being able to safely clear the suspicion."
When he said these words, this man felt a little uneasy. Gu Xinian had almost turned down all social activities in the past few months, who knew whether he would be willing to go today?
Unexpectedly, Gu Xinian agreed without thinking. Everyone was overjoyed, and more people wanted to join in the fun. The originally scheduled banquet table turned into four or five tables. Hubu
All officials, big and small, were present.
If the water is extremely clear, there will be no fish, and if the people are extremely clear, there will be no friends! This truth is an unbreakable truth in officialdom. If you want to win over subordinates to please your superiors, or even deal with colleagues, banquets and entertainment are inevitable. Gu Xi spent a long time in officialdom in his previous life
Ten years, plus more than ten years in this life, I have a particularly profound understanding of this point. I am able to cope with such an environment with ease.
There were glasses and pots mingling among each other, and they kept quiet about court affairs, only talking about love and romance, and the atmosphere was even warmer. If there were a group of beautiful and charming singers accompanying the wine, most of the men's bones would probably soften.
Gu Xinian is the protagonist of tonight's banquet, and the singer who pours wine for him is also the youngest and most beautiful among the singers. The singer is about fifteen or sixteen years old. She is standing next to him with a wine bottle in her hand, and her appearance is charming and bright.
, there was a smile on her lips, and her bright eyes showed unabashed admiration.
Gu Xinian is indeed too outstanding! Putting aside his family background and official position, just looking at that handsome face and aloof temperament are enough to make all the women present feel fascinated. If you can spend time with such a man
A good night. This life is not in vain!
Mr. Liu, the host of the banquet, was already feeling drunk. Taking advantage of this feeling, he approached Gu Xinian and said with a low smile, "I wonder if Mr. Gu would like to adopt the screen?"
Caiping was the singer who poured wine for Gu Xinian. When she heard Master Liu's question, she immediately lowered her head shyly, but her ears stood up unconsciously. Master Liu whispered ambiguously little by little.
The words reached Cai Ping's ears: "This Cai Ping is only fifteen years old. He has not been combed yet. Why don't you, sir, show mercy to her and don't go back to your house tonight..."
Caiping's heart was beating wildly. She glanced at Gu Xinian shyly and secretly. The shy and charming look in that glance was enough to make all men lose their souls. She was also very confident in her beauty, convinced that no man could.
Deny yourself…
"Thank you very much, Mr. Liu, for your kind words." The deep and melodious man's voice was a bit lazy and casual: "It's a pity that no matter how beautiful the beauty is, I don't have the heart to appreciate it now. After the banquet is over, I have to rush back home.
Accompanying my wife. This Caiping, it’s better for Mr. Liu to keep his wealth to himself.”
Caiping's smile froze, and she could hardly believe her ears. He was not tempted by her at all. He just rejected her so easily!
Master Liu had long heard of Gu Xinian's restraint and self-discipline in sexual intercourse, so he didn't find it strange. He just advised diligently: "It's a waste of time to be young! Could it be that a beauty like Caiping can't catch the eyes of adults?"
?”
If such a beauty were given to the prince, I am sure that the prince would be happy to accept it! Gu Shilang had refused to go outside to pick wild flowers before, but now that his beloved wife is pregnant, he would not be so repulsive to others.
Outside!
Caiping raised her eyes and looked over without giving up. The girl in her prime was indeed very beautiful. She also had a softness and helplessness that was not available to women from a good family, and she also had a faint hint of charm in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. It was true.
It's moving.
But Gu Xinian didn't even look at her. He just smiled lightly and said, "I appreciate Mr. Liu's kindness. As for the beauty, I don't need it."
Caiping bit her lip and couldn't laugh anymore. Her eyes were full of surprise and confusion.
Seeing that he had slapped the horse's leg with his flattery, Master Liu was a little bit embarrassed, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "It's the lower official who uses his own heart to judge other people's belly, which made Mr. Gu laugh."
But Gu Xinian smiled kindly and said, "What Mr. Liu said really made me uneasy. It's just that I'm not good at it by nature, so you don't have to worry about it. Come on, let me toast you first."
Master Liu raised his glass happily and finally turned over the page. As for Caiping, he kept looking at Gu Xinian with a slightly sad and pitiful look... Unfortunately, Gu Xinian didn't miss her at all, and the banquet was
As soon as it was over, he walked away.
In fact, such an episode is not uncommon. It is also an unwritten practice at banquets to invite a singer to accompany the banquet. As for the activities carried out after the banquet, it is even more tacit. Gu Xinian is the exception among the exceptions. Every banquet
Get up and leave as soon as it's over, and never stay out overnight, even if it's the middle of the night.
Precisely because of this, Ye Qinglan felt at ease when he was out having dinner parties. She was also used to waiting for him to come back and fall asleep together every night.
Of course, Master Liu was not the only one who wanted to give a beauty to Gu Xinian.
The prince once joked in front of Gu Xinian several times: "Cousin, Mrs. Ye has been pregnant for so long, you don't even have a maid, right? Someone in my house happened to send two beauties, and I
How about I give it to you without even touching a finger?"
Gu Xinian politely declined without thinking: "Thank you for your kindness, cousin, I'd better leave the beauty to my cousin to enjoy! I won't need it!"
"You must not be henpecked!" The prince laughed narrowly: "My younger brother and sister look gentle and virtuous, but they turn out to be jealous."
Gu Xinian smiled casually: "She didn't say anything. It's because I don't want another woman." In fact, not long after Ye Qinglan found out that she was pregnant, Mrs. Sun wanted to find a wife for him.
He was a maid. He said without thinking at the time: "Grandma, it's better to enjoy some happiness and don't have to worry about me and Qinglan."
Mrs. Sun was choked for a long time and could not speak. From then on, she never said a word again.
The prince looked at him in disbelief: "Pregnant women are not allowed to have sex. Are you just going to endure it until the child is born?" Even if the child is born, there is still time for confinement. Added up,
That’s close to a year. Even a man can’t bear it for so long!
Gu Xinian knew that this kind of topic would not resonate with the prince at all, so he did not explain much and just smiled.
The prince is not a fool, and he can naturally guess Gu Xinian's thoughts. But in his opinion, it is too stupid to only guard one woman for the rest of his life! There are all kinds of beauties around him, each with his own beauty, each with his own style, why
Can you give it up? Because of this, even in the years when Shen Qiuyu first entered the house and monopolized his favor, he never kept his integrity like a jade.
It's one thing to like it, but it doesn't affect him from trying new things at all!
...
Since Ye Qinglan became pregnant, Gu Xinian has given up most of the social activities. In the past few months, he has come back to have dinner with her almost every day. However, after the impeachment incident, Gu Xinian used the Holy Family to
I re-entered the court in a positive attitude, and there were obviously more social gatherings than before. And many of them were hard to refuse.
After Gu Xinian came home late for several days in a row, he felt heartbroken when he saw Ye Qinglan dozing off and waiting for him. He made up his mind and said: "Forget it, starting from tomorrow, I will come back to accompany you every day."
alright."
Ye Qinglan tried to cheer up and said with a smile: "You are a person who wants to do big things, so why don't you go out and socialize with others? In the past, it didn't matter no matter how late I waited, but now I'm pregnant and it's really unbearable. Otherwise, starting from tomorrow, I
I won’t wait for you, just go to sleep alone.” The symptoms of late pregnancy have gradually become obvious. I feel tired and sleepy every day, and I feel sleepy as soon as it gets dark. I really can’t wait for the door like before.
Gu Xinian hesitated for a moment and nodded helplessly.
So, starting from the next day, Ye Qinglan tried not to wait for the door anymore. After having dinner in Jingxinyuan, she went back to the yard to take a bath and rest alone. She was used to sleeping with two people, but she was not used to sleeping alone.
My body is obviously extremely sleepy, but I can't fall asleep no matter what.
Ye Qinglan decided to count sheep.
One sheep, two sheep, three sheep... one hundred and fifty sheep, one hundred and fifty-one sheep... one thousand, three hundred and eighty-nine sheep...
I didn't know how long I counted in a daze, and finally fell asleep. It seemed that not long after I closed my eyes, there was a slight movement in the room. Even though the footsteps were very low, there was no sound, but the familiar breath was.
Let Ye Qinglan know that it is Gu Xinian who is back.
The mood that was still a little unstable suddenly calmed down, and then fell into a deep sleep peacefully.
Under the dim starlight, Gu Xinian gazed tenderly at her quiet and peaceful sleeping face, his heart filled with soft emotions. He bent down and kissed her hair gently, and carefully held her in his arms.
Bend, and then fell into a deep sleep.
