The man who came to look for Gu Qiancheng was wearing ordinary coarse cotton clothes, but even this could not hide the aura of a soldier about him.
Gu Qiancheng took one look and guessed who sent him.
"Girl, the master is waiting for you at the palace. Please come to the palace." The visitor dismounted, knelt on one knee beside the carriage, and said respectfully.
He didn't describe his family name, but the word "Prince's Mansion" alone was enough to explain his identity.
"I know." Gu Qiancheng lowered the curtain and asked the coachman to follow him.
Without incident, the carriage drove into Prince Qin's Mansion.
"Miss Gu, please come here." The old housekeeper of Prince Qin's Mansion came out to greet her personally. When he saw Gu Qiancheng, his face smiled like the sun, "If Miss Gu is here, Your Majesty will come to the Prince's Mansion early in the morning to wait for the girl.
The old slave sent someone to the Gu family before, and the Gu family said that you went out and I don’t know where you went. Fortunately, the people from Liumen said something, otherwise the emperor would have blamed the old slave for his inability to do things."
"Excuse me, butler." Gu Qiancheng said with a smile, not taking the old butler's joke to heart.
"No trouble, no trouble, this is what I should do." The old butler finished the sale at the right time and stopped at the corner. "The Lord is in the study in front, and I sent him here."
Gu Qiancheng nodded in greeting and walked forward slowly. The old butler stood there, watching with a smile on his face. Only when Gu Qiancheng was no longer visible did the old butler slowly walk back.
Gu Qiancheng pushed the door open and walked in. No surprise, Qin Jiyan was in the study.
Qin Jiyan was holding a book in his hand, sitting with his back to the window. The light filtered in from the window behind him, and his whole body seemed to be enveloped in a hazy halo, which dissolved the pressure and domineering power of the emperor. Just looking at him made him let go.
People feel comfortable.
But... Gu Qiancheng came in for a long time, and Qin Jiyan didn't raise his head to look at her.
"Ahem..." Gu Qiancheng coughed twice. Seeing that Qin Jiyan still didn't respond, he smiled and joked: "What's going on, Your Majesty? Do you think I didn't salute you?"
"Hmph...don't you see that I'm not happy?" Qin Jiyan didn't raise his head, but snorted coldly, looking away with a proud look on his face.
Gu Qiancheng couldn't help but laugh, and said in an exaggerated manner: "Who made our Majesty unhappy? How brave you are to dare to make His Majesty unhappy, drag him out and behead him."
"You know what you're asking, but you don't have any sincerity at all." Qin Jiyan raised his head, glanced at Gu Qiancheng, and then continued reading.
Ever since Gu Qiancheng walked in, he hasn't even turned a page. God knows whether he is reading a book or not.
"Why am I not sincere? I am a stupid girl, please ask the Holy Master to show me." Gu Qiancheng stepped forward and hugged Qin Jiyan from behind. Seeing that Qin Jiyan still looked like I am very angry, I don't want to talk.
Looking like this, Gu Qiancheng coaxed softly: "My good majesty, what's wrong with you? Do you blame me for not coming to the palace to see you? You know, it's not that I don't come to the palace to see you, it's just that I'm too busy...
…”
Gu Qiancheng laughed as he spoke.
"Why are you laughing?" Qin Jiyan slapped the book in his hand on the table and said with an unhappy look on his face.
After saying a few soft words, why did he start laughing? Is it that funny?
"I'm laughing at what I said, don't you think it's funny?" Gu Qiancheng put his head on Qin Jiyan's shoulder, rubbed it, and said, "Look at what I just said, does it sound like a patron visiting a brothel?
, to say to your best friend?"
"You compare me to a woman from a brothel?" Qin Jiyan was unhappy, very unhappy.
Even if he is a benefactor and a good friend, he should be a benefactor... Bah, bah, bah, Gu Qiancheng is not his sweetheart in the brothel.
"I don't visit brothels!" Qin Jiyan emphasized in a dark tone.
Gu Qiancheng hurriedly coaxed: "Yes, yes, yes, I was wrong, I said the wrong thing, okay? This is the eldest gentleman and his wife. My dear madam, be good... don't be angry, anger will make you look ugly.
.”
"What a mess, there is no formality." Qin Jiyan was amused, turned his head, and reached out to hook Gu Qiancheng's chin, "Even if it is the eldest gentleman and his wife, then I should be the eldest gentleman and you are the madam.
Come, call my dear husband to listen."
"Dear husband...is there any reward?" Gu Qiancheng called out without any pressure.
Dear... these three words, she had heard too many of them in her previous life.
"Reward, your husband will be rewarded. What do you want, madam? I will find a husband for you." Qin Jiyan pulled Gu Qiancheng and motioned for Gu Qiancheng to come forward and sit in his arms.
Gu Qiancheng didn't hesitate. He snuggled into Qin Jiyan's arms generously and leaned his head on Qin Jiyan's chest. When he heard this, he raised his head and asked, "Is anything okay?"
"I am the emperor. As long as you want it, I will ask someone to find it for you." Qin Jiyan said with a serious face. His tone and demeanor were as if he was discussing with his ministers in the court how to reward the meritorious officials.
"Okay, I want..." Gu Qiancheng pulled Qin Jiyan's collar and motioned for him to lower his head.
Qin Jiyan was very cooperative, but the moment he lowered his head, Gu Qiancheng suddenly opened his mouth, bit him on the chin, and then quickly jumped out of Qin Jiyan's arms.
"Haha... I want to bite you." After successfully biting a certain saint, Gu Qiancheng was very happy. He was so proud that he forgot that she was trapped inside the desk with a wall behind her. Unless she walked past Qin Jiyan
, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to get out at all.
"Bite me?" Qin Jiyan turned around and blocked Gu Qiancheng in a blind corner. He rubbed his chin and smiled dangerously, "I want to see where you go after you bite me."
"Uh... This, this was an accident. It's true. I originally planned to kiss you." Gu Qiancheng hurriedly explained, but this explanation was really... too false.
"I would be a fool to believe you. You don't think that I picked up this throne, right?" Qin Jiyan raised his eyebrows and spoke softly. Seeing Gu Qiancheng's eyes darting around, trying to escape, Qin Jiyan smiled.
Said: "Qiancheng, do you think I will catch you, or will you come here on your own?"
Qin Jiyan crossed his legs and sat elegantly on the chair, waiting for Gu Qiancheng to throw himself into the trap.
He knew that someone as smart as Gu Qiancheng would definitely know which path to choose.
"Can I choose neither?" Gu Qiancheng pointed to the desk, "Actually, I can still turn over from the desk." With her current skills, it is easy to turn over from the desk.
"Do you think I will let you flip over the desk?" No matter how good Gu Qiancheng's skills are, they are not as good as his.
The way out was blocked, Gu Qiancheng pretended to be pitiful again, "Your Majesty... it was an accident just now."
"I know. Don't worry, I won't blame you." Qin Jiyan waved to Gu Qiancheng and said with a gentle face: "Come here, I won't do anything to you."
That tone and demeanor looked like the big bad wolf that abducted Little Red Riding Hood. Gu Qiancheng had a bad feeling. But...but, she had no way out now, how could she disobey?
