"However, Qingsheng still has a wish in his heart. I wonder if it can be..."
"Just say whatever you want to say. You've been framed by that villain and suffered so much, and Grandmother hasn't bothered him yet. If you have any grievances, feel free to speak up."
The Queen Mother felt angry when she mentioned that Gu Qingsheng had suffered so much in prison.
Originally, in her eyes, Luo Zhaozhao was not a righteous person. If it was to appease the Luoyang governor, it would be enough to lock him up for two days as an explanation.
It just so happened that she was locked up for so long that an accident happened. Fortunately, Xu Qingyi brought her back in the end, otherwise she would not be able to explain herself even if she was right.
"Qingsheng has always been the one that makes his father worry. He is also a child who is not easy to take care of. In fact, this kind of life is very distressing to Qingsheng."
"Now I am getting older, so Qingsheng feels that I can no longer grow under my father's wings."
Hearing Gu Qingsheng's implication, the Queen Mother's nerves jumped, and she narrowed her eyes to look at Gu Qingsheng, as if she wanted to see something.
"you mean……"
"I mean."
She smiled
"Kiyomori also wants to protect his own power."
…
On the day of the martial arts test, Gu Fengnan got up very early.
Gu Qingsheng was awakened by the sound from the training ground. Gu Fengnan outside had already started training, and he was wielding a long spear very beautifully.
"Princess, come and wash up."
Bai Lu brought water for Gu Qingsheng to wash up. All the ministers' families would be present today, and it was a big occasion. She stretched and washed her face.
Miao Lanlan just woke up at this time
"What are your plans for today?"
Listening to Miao Lanlan's yawning, it seemed that she was still a little sleepy.
"What plan? What other plan could there be?"
"Please stop talking. I know what you're thinking. Who knows what you're up to."
After spending so much time with Gu Qingsheng, Miao Lanlan also understood Gu Qingsheng a lot. This martial arts test was destined to be not very peaceful.
"Chiangmori."
It was Gu Fengnan's voice outside the door. He sounded much more energetic and seemed to be in a good mood.
"Are you up yet? Let's go to the front hall to eat."
Prince Duan is usually very busy with official duties, and Lin has been staying at home these days. No one knows what she is planning. Usually, she and Gu Fengnan eat in each other's courtyards. Today's martial arts test is a grand occasion, and it is very rare for the family to get together for a meal.
"Got it, I'll be right there."
She agreed, and Bai Lu beside her had already taken out a light blue crescent-shaped embroidered dress from the cabinet and prepared it for her to change into. As the weather was getting cooler, she added a rabbit fur shawl.
Gu Qingsheng glanced at the clothes and said nothing. After packing up and leaving, he turned around and said to Bai Lu as if he had thought of something.
"Change this skirt to my peony gilded skirt, and change the cape to a brighter color."
Bai Lu was stunned.
Gu Qingsheng never liked wearing clothes with too bright colors. The peony gilded skirt was prepared for her by the late princess when she was still alive, and it had been kept there ever since.
Most young ladies in the capital city like materials with plain colors. Girls who are too young usually cannot look good with bright red or green colors.
She was a little hesitant
"Princess, would it be better if Wu tried to wear something simpler today?"
"fine."
Gu Qingsheng pushed open the door, and the sunlight outside cast a very soft light and shadow on her face. She had lost a lot of weight recently, and after resting for two days, she finally felt better.
"Just do as I say."
Bai Lu no longer argued and whispered yes.
…
"Fengnan, have you gone to urge Qingsheng? Why hasn't he come yet after so long?"
Prince Duan sat at the top, frowning and rubbing his forehead, and asked Gu Fengnan in a tired tone.
"I urged my father. Maybe she's been a little busy these past two days, so she slept a little longer. Let's wait a little longer."
After Gu Fengnan finished speaking, Lin continued
"Yes, Your Highness, Qingsheng has just woken up a few days ago. Don't worry. He hasn't been feeling well these past two days, and his appetite hasn't been good either."
"Some time ago, I asked Luoshui to send a lot of medicine over. They were all high-quality medicinal and nutritional supplements. I wanted her to take good care of herself, but when I went back the next day, I found it had already been dumped in the garden."
"It seems like he really has a poor appetite. I'm very worried if this continues."
This is said smoothly, but the meaning behind it is profound.
Even Gu Fengnan, a stubborn man, frowned when he heard this.
"Are you saying that Qingsheng poured all the medicine you gave him into the garden?"
He gave the man a wink, and Lin cried out in pain.
"Look, what I said may have misunderstood you, but it's not actually that. It's probably just some medicine residue. Qingsheng is in poor health, so it's normal for him to have a poor appetite..."
Receiving Lin's signal, Luo Shui continued
"That's not even leftovers. It's clearly a whole bowl of medicine. The princess specially ordered a snow swallow from the Western Regions, and the whole thing was thrown away!"
"I've been sending delicious food and drinks to the princess every day these past few days. I don't know what she's unhappy about, but she's always so unhappy with us, the princess..."
When she said this, her tone was filled with resentment, just like a maid standing up for her master.
Gu Qingsheng and Bai Lu, who had just walked to the door, looked at each other for a second and stopped when they heard this.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
After scolding him for falling into the water, Lin smiled as if she didn't care.
"Don't listen to her nonsense. I know Qingsheng is not that kind of child..."
"Which one?"
At the right time, Gu Qingsheng interrupted, and Lin's face changed and she looked at Gu Qingsheng with embarrassment, but was blinded.
Her red dress seemed to be glowing in the scorching sun, and with every step she took, large patches of snow lotus and peony were scattered under her feet. The peonies were embroidered with cloud embroidery, which did not look vulgar but rather ingenious.
The red dress sets off her snow-white skin, bright eyes and white teeth. She looks naturally noble, like a goddess who has just descended to earth. Her eyebrows and eyes are light and distant, and her chin is held high, full of nobility.
Gu Qingsheng, who had never worn bright colors before, was now eye-catching, which made Lin feel at a loss for a moment.
And for some reason, I saw the shadow of the deceased Princess Duan in her.
The pupils contracted violently, and the hands on the dress kept tightening. But she had to put on a caring look and smile.
"Qiongsheng, this outfit really makes me stunned. I've never seen you wear red before. Why are you in the mood to wear red today?"
Lin personally stood up to greet Gu Qingsheng
"This girl is so rude, don't bother with her..."
"What you said is not true, auntie."
The sound of "Auntie" made everyone present tremble with excitement.
Logically speaking, although Lin was a concubine in Prince Duan's Mansion before, this word cannot be used to describe her now that she has been promoted to a co-wife. However, it is Gu Qingsheng who calls her by this title.
