Chapter 34
Xiao finds a capable and trustworthy Yue family.In this way, even after his death, Gu Xiao will not be bullied in the palace.
The Shen family was the Yue family chosen by the former empress for Gu Xiao.
In order for the two to cultivate their relationship, Shen Jin'an had been in and out of the harem since he was a child, and he and Gu Xiao were childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts.
When she was a child, Gu Xiao was kind-hearted and took good care of Shen Jinan, her 'sister'.
The former empress once asked Gu Xiao if she would marry Shen Jin'an as his wife.
Gu Xiao didn't explicitly refuse, he knew in his heart that he came from a royal family, and marriage matters were never out of his control.That being the case, it is better to choose someone you are more familiar with for easy control.

But what made Gu Xiao feel chilling was that the Shen family's attitude towards him changed drastically after the former empress passed away.
Except for some clothes and money secretly sent to him by someone from Shen Liu who had a good relationship with his mother, Shen Jin'an, as the princess of Changle who was deeply loved by the late emperor, entered the palace several times, but never visited him once.
Not only that, he also saw Shen Jin'an talking and laughing with King Zhen in the imperial garden, and when talking about him, his words were full of disdain.
Gu Xiao was well protected by the first empress from birth, until the first empress' health deteriorated day by day, and then she gradually became aware of the dangers in the world.
Shen Jinan's words made Gu Xiao realize for the first time that the words uttered from the mouths of those close to him are so vicious.
That is to say, from that day on, Gu Xiao completely changed.
He learned to put away his useless sympathy and pity, and began to do everything possible to keep himself alive in this man-eating deep palace.
Now that Shen Jin'an appeared again, Gu Xiao felt unexpectedly calm.
It's just that he didn't expect that Shen Jin'an not only appeared in front of him in a fair manner, but also intended to use his childhood relationship to enter the palace as a concubine!
Where she couldn't see, a sneer appeared on the corner of Gu Xiao's mouth, and said in a flat tone: "Princess Changle is just joking, those are just childhood nonsense, there are too many to count."
If it wasn't for the outstanding meritorious service of Marquis Yongwu, Gu Xiao would have sent him to a private prison long ago.
Thinking of He Zifan who left alone, a trace of impatience flashed in Gu Xiao's heart.
Too lazy to talk nonsense with her, she got up and wanted to grab the person back to her side, so as not to hook up again where he couldn't see.
Shen Jin'an was keenly aware of the impatience of the person in front of her, her slender nails clenched her palms tightly, the pain calmed down her mind that was dazzled by joy.
Watching the other party leave, Shen Jin'an's exquisite and beautiful face suddenly darkened, and the handkerchief in her hand was wrung to pieces.
"Miss, Your Majesty can't get through here. What should we do next? Do you really want to listen to Madam and let Master Biao enter the Marquis's residence?" The green-clothed maid beside Shen Jinan said anxiously.
"To shut up!"
Shen Jin'an did not expect that Gu Xiao had changed so much over the years, and he did not care about old feelings at all.
This time when she returned to Beijing, her mother had already arranged a marriage for her. It was a son from a collateral branch of the Liu family, named Liu Chengyi, and they could be regarded as distant cousins.
Liu Chengyi's family is in the middle of nowhere but has a brilliant literary talent. Marquis Yongwu has no sons, only one heir, two concubines, and three daughters.
As Shen Jin'an's daughter-in-law, she also has the title of "Princess Master". Marquis Yongwu and Mrs. Hou discussed to find a man to enter the Marquis's mansion to pass on the incense.
Hearing about his parents' decision, Shen Jin felt unwilling.She has always been cautious and arrogant, and she will do her best in everything.These efforts were not in vain, and won her the reputation of 'the first talented woman'.
She always felt that even if she couldn't be a crown princess, she could at least be a princess.In the end, her parents asked her to find a poor and settled household to marry, how could she be reconciled?
Hearing that there was only one empress in the new emperor's harem, and she was a barren man, he thought of taking a gamble.
As long as she can enter the palace smoothly, how can she not be able to win over the emperor with her beauty and wrist?
At that time, the holy family will be favored, and it will only be a matter of time before the birth of a dragon son.
Once she gives birth to a prince, the mother is more expensive than the son, even if the queen is abolished, it is not impossible for her to be in power.
Knowing that her father and mother will not agree with her ideas, but will do everything possible to stop her.
Shen Jin'an tried to secretly bribe the people around the emperor, and finally found a chance to meet the emperor, and that's how he got what he is today.
It's just that she didn't expect Xindi's unexpected indifference to her and the obvious importance he attached to that man.
Obviously she was the one who grew up with him since he was a child, not to mention that there was a marriage contract between them that was promised by the former empress herself, so the position of empress should belong to her!
If I hadn't left the capital to go to the border at the beginning, and the person who was staying with brother Xiao and being with him at the moment was obviously me, otherwise, how could this wild man who appeared suddenly be so cheap!
Shen Jinan, who was dazzled by jealousy and greed, had long forgotten that after the death of the previous empress, she was the one who was afraid of getting into trouble, so she chose to abandon Gu Xiao at the first moment, and turned to King Zhen, who was favored by the Holy One.
Moreover, the reason why she suddenly left the capital at the beginning was because the Yongwuhous and his wife were trying to cover up the scandal she had done, so they took them away from the capital together.

Leaving the pavilion, Gu Xiao looked around for He Zifan.
From the rockery not far away, seeing He Zifan who was embracing with others, his anger reached its peak in an instant.
"What are you doing!" Gu Xiao rushed forward and asked angrily.
He Zifan shuddered when he heard the sound, and retracted his hands reflexively, and even took two steps back unconsciously to show his innocence.
As soon as he withdrew, the person in his arms immediately appeared, it was a fifteen or sixteen year old girl who looked like a porcelain doll.
The young girl's face was pale, her figure was thin and thin, there was a little sadness in her eyebrows and eyes, and her whole person was weak.
"She, is, who?" Gu Xiao paused.
The author has something to say: Happy Valentine’s Day, cuties~
I just saw the little cutie asked me if I was single, I can tell you very loudly that I am not, and the author has a baby_(:з」∠)_
Well, the cutie who left a message today, the author left a small red envelope, I hope everyone can be happy every day, and then in the new year, you can meet someone you like~
'Fiancee' appeared, "Oh, don't be angry, let me explain..." He Zifan stood in front of her as if he was afraid that Gu Xiao would scare her.
"Hey, don't be angry, just listen to my explanation..."
As if afraid that Gu Xiao would scare her, He Zifan stood in front of her, blocking Gu Xiao's murderous gaze.
"Okay, then explain." Gu Xiao smiled angrily when he saw this, and looked at him coldly.
Intuition told He Zifan that if he couldn't give him a satisfactory answer, he would definitely end up miserable when he went back!
"Then what, my relationship with her is really not what you imagined, she is actually..."
"I'm brother Zifan's unmarried wife. May I ask you, sir...?" Before He Zifan could finish speaking, the girl hiding behind her took the words softly.
"Oh? You are his unmarried wife, why didn't I know about this?" Gu Xiao said in a serious tone.
As slow as He Zifan could hear the danger implied in these words.
It's a pity that the innocent and kind girl behind her didn't notice it, and instead explained in a soft voice: "The marriage was arranged by Uncle He earlier, this time I came to the capital to find Brother Zifan, and I also wanted to complete the elder's agreement according to the agreement." Getting married. It's just that I didn't expect to meet Brother Zifan here by such a coincidence. I think it's God's will."
Gu Xiao squinted at He Zifan who was standing aside.
With a flash of inspiration, He Zifan suddenly guessed what he was thinking.
Sighing slightly, He Zifan explained: "Her name is Chen Ling'er, and she is the daughter of my father's best friend. When she was three years old, the Chen family was hunted down and wiped out. When my father arrived, he found that she was hidden in the water tank and fell into the water. Linger in a coma. Seeing that her relatives had all died suddenly, my father couldn't bear it, so he brought Linger back to He Mansion to take care of her. In order to give Linger a home, my father called the patriarch, and under the witness of the patriarch, we made a marriage contract , thinking that when Ling'er reaches Ji, the He Mansion will formally hire her to marry Ling'er and enter the mansion."
"So I delayed you and ruined your wonderful marriage?" Gu Xiao said through gritted teeth.
He Zifan felt helpless, this was the first time someone was jealous of him, it would have been nice if this person wasn't Gu Xiao.If he is not appeased, who knows what he will do next.
After thinking about it, He Zifan turned around and asked Chen Linger: "Linger, where do you live in the capital?"
Chen Ling'er bit her lip and said nothing, and He Zifan realized after thinking about it that this girl probably hasn't found a place to stay yet.
"Well, I'll leave He Yi behind, and you follow him to live in He's mansion first. After two days, I'll take time to go back to the mansion, and then discuss the marriage contract." Concerned about Chen Linger's poor health, and the matter of the marriage contract Ashamed of her, I naturally want to take good care of her.
Seeing the faces of the people around him getting more and more ugly, He Zifan didn't dare to wait any longer, and dragged Gu Xiao away from the place of right and wrong in a hurry.
On the way back to the palace, Gu Xiao remained silent.He Zifan was upset, but he didn't know how to explain it.
After entering the gate of Fengxi Palace, watching Gu Xiao send away all the palace people, He Zifan felt bad.
Before he could find the right time to escape, he was picked up and thrown onto the bed.
The bed was covered with dragon and phoenix brocade quilts, but He Zifan didn't feel any pain.
Keenly aware of the approaching danger, he rolled from the bed and leaned against the innermost wall.
He Zifan looked at Gu Xiao who was standing in front of him with a trembling expression, and said with a face crossed, "Then what, if I say that I always treat him as my sister...do you believe it?"
"What do you think?" Gu Xiao asked with a half-smile.
Sleepless all night, He Zifan lay down early the next morning
