Chapter 14 Dinner Party
Ruan Youqing froze for a moment, her back straightened.
After finishing speaking, Gu Changan stood up slowly again, then leaned against the pillar beside him, and waited for the other party's answer with the corners of his lips curled up.
When the little fox is embarrassed, he is also very cute!
just don't know...
Will you be out of breath and reveal your true colors?
Sure enough, after Ruan Youqing looked around, he softly ordered Fan'er to wait aside.
Seeing this, Gu Changan raised his eyebrows.
"Master Shoufu, how did you notice it?" Ruan Youqing had a sullen little face, very serious.
After all... If Gu Changan finds out, it is very likely that someone else will find out.
She needs to know what went wrong in advance, so as to save other similar accidents in the future.
However, Ruan Youqing didn't even realize that she not only had guilt from her previous life for Gu Changan, but also a trace of...trust hidden deep in her soul.
Gu Changan smiled lightly: "Miss Ruan is not afraid that I will spread your story?"
Ruan Youqing frowned and thought for a while, and then replied: "Your mouth is on you, Mr. Gu. It's up to you whether you say it or not. Youqing can't control it. And others want to frame me... I can't let it go." Let the other party mess around."
Seeing that Ruan Youqing was no longer as soft and weak as before, Gu Changan only felt more and more interesting.
But at this moment, Ruan Youqing suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Master Gu noticed something in the pastry?"
"Is there something in the pastry?" Gu Changan put away the laziness just now, with a stern look on his brows and eyes.
"Eh??? Master Gu doesn't know?" Ruan Youqing opened his eyes wide in surprise.
Gu Changan frowned slightly: "What do you mean...someone drugged the pastry?"
"Since I don't know...then why did Lord Gu say that to Rong Yan just now?"
"It's because she doesn't like her, so I naturally want to say something to her." Gu Changan took it for granted.
Ruan Youqing: "..."
"So do you know who dared to administer medicine in the palace?" Gu Changan asked after sitting next to Ruan Youqing with a slightly cold expression.
When she found someone sitting beside her, Ruan Youqing's face turned red again, she moved a little distance to the side calmly, and then slowly said what she thought in her heart: "I'm afraid I have someone's permission. However, It’s really courageous... and I’m not afraid of being accidentally eaten by others and causing accidents.”
「Do you know what kind of medicine it is?」
"Food and wine are mixed with rootless fruit powder, and in the corner of the kiosk, there is still incense with Xianluo flowers burning. If something really happened to me, I guess I will wait for someone to find out and investigate. That thing must have been swapped and taken away. And this medicine...for most people, it will be hot and exciting at best, and generally it will not cause people to think about it. So...that person considered it cautiously." Ruan Youqing said with a blank expression, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
"But she met you." Gu Changan looked at Ruan Youqing with a half-smile, holding his chin and tilting his head: "Miss Ruan, you know a lot..."
Ruan Youqing froze again, and then smiled a little: "After all... After all, I was raised by my grandfather! I know... naturally more than others."
But the truth is, her grandfather did teach her some things. But what she knows now is more from the memory of her previous life.
That period belonged to her darkest moment.
Thinking of this, Ruan Youqing lowered her eyes, not wanting anyone to see the raging anger in her eyes.
Even in front of Gu Changan, she doesn't have to pretend to be weak... But she doesn't want the other party to see her darkest appearance.
Gu Changan seemed to have noticed something. After covering the dark eyes, he opened his mouth slowly: "Then Miss Ruan...how do you plan to deal with it? Should I let it go...or..."
For some reason, an inexplicable expectation rose in his heart.
Although the little fox has a heavy heart,... I don't know if it can be regarded as a "beast".
Ruan Youqing's eyes were suddenly foggy, and it was back to the weak and weak look before.
It's just... the words that came out of his mouth were bone-chillingly cold.
「Youqing never likes not to return gifts after receiving things from others.」
Gu Changan was taken aback for a moment, but then became even more interested.
As expected, he is the little fox he fancy, and he...is really the same person.
…
It was getting late, and the dinner party of Huachaohui officially started.
Ruan Youqing separated from Gu Changan long ago, accompanied by Fan'er, followed the crowd to Changcui Palace.
Rong Yan saw Ruan Youqing when she entered the palace, and immediately pulled her affectionately to the seat next to her, and happened to sit between her and Puyang Princess Li Ange.
After seeing Ruan Youqing, Li Ange opened his mouth as if he wanted to ask something.
It turned out that Miss Ruan's accidental fall from the pavilion had already been reported. Although he was rescued by Mr. Shoufu passing by, it still made people feel scared for a while.
That’s the charming girl from the Ruan Mansion...
If something really happens...
Old General Ruan might be able to charge into the palace with a machete.
In this incident, the drama of the hero saving the beauty that is most likely to be ridiculed by others is that no one dares to say anything more.
Even if Lord Shoufu took Ruan Youqing away, or even stayed there for half an hour, no one dared to say anything more.
Just because... all the young masters and young ladies who came to the Huachaohui were ordered and ordered, nagged and nagged by the elders of the family before entering the palace.
If you meet Gu Changan, the chief assistant, in the palace, you can avoid provoking him if you can! Even if you meet in person, you should salute and say hello politely.
There was once someone who didn't believe in evil, and deliberately contradicted Mr. Shoufu.
The end result is... This man's father was exposed for giving and accepting bribes eight years ago. The emperor hated this matter the most, so he punished him severely.
The person who exposed it was naturally Gu Changan.
There were also some people who were anxiously thinking about thoroughly investigating whether the chief minister was innocent. It turned out that the dignified chief assistant not only has a clean sleeve, but even cleans himself up so much that he has never even been to a flower building when meeting with his colleagues!
Therefore, Gu Changan, the chief assistant, should not be provoked easily.
But Li Ange didn't shy away from this at this time, she just wanted to know if Ruan Youqing was injured.
However, Ningguo's most beloved little princess has an unimaginable "pride".
Li Ange pursed her lips, her face turned red.
Ruan Youqing glimpsed it from the corner of his eyes, and wanted to treat it as invisible...but the other party kept looking at him intentionally or unintentionally, Ruan Youqing could only smile helplessly and said, "Your Highness...but...what's the matter?"
Li Ange's face turned even redder, and then he snorted before speaking: "No... nothing! I just heard that you almost fell from the pavilion in the imperial garden before? Why are you so... stupid!"
Ruan Youqing paused, and instantly understood what the other party meant.
As always...Knife mouth tofu heart.
"Thank you, princess, for your concern~ You Qing was rescued in time by Lord Shoufu, and thus avoided being injured."
"Hmph! Don't be too sentimental! I'm just... asking casually!" After speaking, Li Ange turned his head away and stopped talking to her.
…
After all the princes and ladies sat down separately, the queen came slowly.
On such occasions, the emperor would generally not be present, so the atmosphere would not be too solemn.
The queen smiled and said a few more words, and the dinner officially started.
After drinking for three rounds, Ruan Youqing just wanted to pick up a piece of stir-fried bamboo shoots in front of him, when Rong Yan brought someone over.
"Sister Ruan, you are shocked today." As she said, Rong Yan reached out to take the jug handed by the maid behind her, poured herself a glass, and then picked up Ruan Youqing wine glass and filled it up for her.
"This is freshly brewed fruit wine. It's not intoxicating. It's really hard for you today, and I don't know what to say to comfort you... So I thought about having a drink with my sister, and everything was in the wine. After all, you and I know each other. Fate, Sister Ruan is not allowed to shirk."
Ruan Youqing glanced at the jug in the maid's hand, and the maid immediately lowered her eyes and clenched the handle tightly when she saw this.
Smiling with narrowed eyes, Ruan Youqing reached out to take the wine glass handed over by the other party, and then drank it down.
