Princess Wanchun's literary attainments were obviously very high. She actually interpreted two lines of poetry into such a beautiful artistic conception. Gu Qing felt that he was as innocent as a virgin in front of her.

You are a princess, why are your thoughts so evil? At this speed, even if you have not been driving for more than five years, you will not be able to drive such an enchanting curve.

"Your Highness has misunderstood. I never meant this." Gu Qing lowered his head and took two steps back.

Princess Wanchun was so angry that she took two steps forward: "You mean you have forgotten what happened that night, but I am still thinking about it?"

Gu Qing said helplessly: "The fact...isn't it obvious enough?"

"What a thief, that night I..."

Before she finished speaking, Gu Qing suddenly interrupted her: "Your Highness, if you speak louder, the entire Xingqing Palace will hear what happened that night. If Your Highness wants to silence you, I'm afraid he will have to kill everyone in the Xingqing Palace."

OK."

Princess Wanchun trembled with fright, and looked around guiltily. She was relieved when she found no one around. Then she glared at Gu Qing hatefully: "It's all your fault! Why did you appear on the mountain road that night?"

Gu Qing said helplessly: "I didn't expect the princess to fall from the sky that night..."

"I remember that you actually dared to hug me at that time!"

"I have been single for many years, and I couldn't help myself..."

"You were still..."

Gu Qing interrupted her again: "Your Highness, I almost forgot about it, but Your Highness mentioned that night over and over again. If I keep talking about it, I will remember all the scenes of that night clearly..."

"How dare you! Forget it immediately, did you hear me?" Princess Wanchun said angrily.

"Okay, forget it, forget it soon."

Princess Wanchun was angry and helpless. She was just a princess and she didn't dare to kill courtiers. But she really suffered a loss that night. Gu Qing took a look at her innocent body, but she couldn't do anything about it.

This breath of bad breath is really hard to swallow.

Seeing Wan Chun's shameful and angry look, Gu Qing could not help but gently persuade him: "Your Highness, what happened that night was just an accident. I had no intention of taking advantage of Your Highness. I can only blame bad luck. I am innocent. Not as good as you and me."

How about forgetting all about it and never mentioning it again?"

Princess Wanchun hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded reluctantly and agreed. She is a princess and has suffered such a big loss. If she still insists on this matter, it will be disrespectful after all. If word spreads, it will really become a joke.

"You must forget what happened that night, completely, and you are not allowed to remember even a single bit." Princess Wanchun warned seriously.

Gu Qing knew it was time to show off his acting skills, so he showed a blank and innocent expression and said in shock: "What did your highness say? What night was that night? What happened?"

Princess Wanchun was very satisfied with Gu Qing's reaction. Yes, her acting skills were off the charts.

"What are you holding in your hand?" Princess Wanchun changed the subject and looked at the wine jar in Gu Qing's hand.

Gu Qing subconsciously took two steps back: "It's wine. I plan to give it to the imperial concubine..."

"The aroma I smelled just now was from this bar? Let me see what kind of wine is so fragrant."

Gu Qing sighed and reluctantly opened the seal of the wine jar. Princess Wanchun immediately smelled a strong aroma of wine, accompanied by a light fruity and sweet-scented osmanthus aroma.

Princess Wanchun was the apple of Li Longji's eye. She usually had nothing to do and had frequent banquets. She was also a good drinker. The jar of wine in Gu Qing's hand looked delicious. Wanchun was immediately moved and her throat squirmed quietly.

Then she acted like a princess and said arrogantly: "Give the wine to me, and I will help you give it to the noble concubine."

Gu Qing smiled bitterly and said: "Your Highness, don't make trouble. I understand your caution, but this jar of wine is extremely rare. I gave it to the noble concubine because I really wanted to ask for something. Next time, how about I brew some good wine and give it to Your Highness?"

?”

"If you have any questions for me, my dearest concubine, please tell me. Maybe I can help you too."

Gu Qing glanced at her and said, "I want to meet His Highness Prince Ji, can you help me?"

Wan Chun was stunned: "That's it?"

"That's it."

Wanchun's face was filled with joy, and he took the wine jar from Gu Qing's hand unceremoniously, held it tightly in his arms, and said happily: "This palace has helped me, you don't have to ask the imperial concubine, this jar of wine is for me."

Please pay me your reward. Wait for me outside the palace after noon, and I will take you to Prince Ji’s Mansion.”

Gu Qing thought for a while, he just wanted to see King Ji. It didn't matter who took him to see King Ji. Besides, he had a small grudge with Wanchun when they were at the Taoist temple. If they met more and more times and became friends, the grudges would naturally disappear.

, to save yourself from making one more enemy.

So Gu Qing smiled and saluted: "Then please leave it to Your Highness the Princess. I will wait for Your Highness outside the palace."

…………

Wanchun led the way. Gu Qing saw that Prince Ji was very easy to see. He followed Princess Wanchun and swaggered into Prince Ji's palace.

While Wanchun and Wanchun were sitting in the front hall waiting for King Ji, Wanchun came over and asked curiously: "I haven't asked yet, why do you want to see King Ji's brother?"

"It's a small matter. A friend in Shuzhou accidentally offended King Ji. I'm here to ask for his favor." Gu Qing said with a bitter smile.

Princess Wanchun was originally sitting on the futon, but after hearing this, she crossed her legs and said with great interest: "Tell me carefully."

Seeing her legs crossed, Gu Qing couldn't help but recall the scene of a pair of snow-white slender thighs crossing his waist that night. He took a deep breath and suppressed the thoughts that were about to stir in his heart.

I'm almost 20 years old, is my body still growing? Is puberty that long?

When you get home, you must buy some unscrupulous picture albums to consume your excess energy. A good man does not care about fame and fortune, but only thinks about useless things. This is a sign of depravity.

Before he could answer Wan Chun's words, a figure flashed behind the screen in the front hall, and a man in his thirties wearing a white shirt came out. No one heard him before he saw him.

"Imperial Sister Wanchun is a rare visitor, Brother Yu is neglecting her, haha."

Wanchun and Gu Qing stood up and saluted at the same time. Wanchun said with a smile: "Well, Brother Ji Wang, why are you such a rare visitor? I even came to your house for a banquet at the beginning of the year."

Wanchun said straight to the point, pointed at Gu Qing, and said: "Today I would like to introduce a talented person to Brother Wang. This is Gu Qing, the commander of the left guard. Chang'an has a reputation for being talented. Brother Wang should have heard of it, right?"

King Ji Li Huan's eyes flashed and he looked at Gu Qing with a smile.

Gu Qing straightened his clothes and saluted King Ji: "Your Majesty, Gu Qing, pays homage to His Highness King Ji."

King Ji stepped forward to hold Gu Qing's arm and said with a smile: "I have heard about Gu Changshi's reputation as a talented scholar for a long time. Scholars from Chang'an competed to recite his poems. I have admired him for a long time. How lucky I am to see him today."

After ordering the servants in the palace to serve wine, food and snacks, King Ji and Gu Qing talked for a few words about their experience in writing poems, and then slowly came to the topic.

"I'm asking to see His Highness Prince Ji today to apologize to His Highness." Gu Qing stood up and saluted with a long bow.

King Ji raised his eyebrows: "Oh? I have no contact with Changshi Gu, so how can I apologize?"

"My hometown is Qingcheng County, Shuzhou. The current county magistrate is named Song Gensheng. This person behaves a bit arrogantly and unintentionally offended His Highness King Ji. I apologize to His Highness on his behalf."

Gu Qing started talking, and King Ji immediately understood what he was talking about. He suddenly said "oh" and looked at Gu Qing with a half-smile.

Princess Wanchun looked at Prince Ji and then at Gu Qing. Seeing that the two of them looked mysterious and refused to say anything clearly, Wanchun felt anxious and itchy in her heart.

King Ji did not directly answer Gu Qing's words, but asked: "What is your relationship with the Qingcheng County Magistrate?"

Gu Qing said with a serious face: "The same love as father and son."

King Ji suddenly asked: "Then the county magistrate is your elder?"

Gu Qing waved his hands repeatedly: "His Highness said the opposite, said the opposite."

King Ji was stunned:???

Gu Qingdao: "In short, I have an irreversible friendship with the Qingcheng County Magistrate. The Song County Magistrate is young and ignorant. I hate that iron cannot be made into steel, so I have no choice but to come and apologize to His Highness on his behalf, and ask His Highness to forgive me for this."

"'Hateful iron cannot become steel', haha, Gu Changshi is really a wonderful person, interesting words..." King Ji laughed twice, and looked at Gu Qing and said slowly: "Although I and Gu Changshi have just met each other for the first time, they are very interesting."

We felt like old friends at the first sight, and for the sake of Gu Changshi, I decided that this matter was just a misunderstanding, and I just let it go."

Gu Qing stood up and bowed: "Thank you for your magnanimity, Your Highness."

King Ji smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, making friends is better than making enemies after all, right? However... the wealthy gentleman named Cai in Qingcheng County still wants to ask the county magistrate to release him, and we can live in peace with each other from now on. This is my request.

Isn’t it too much?”

Gu Qing lowered his head and said: "It's not too much. I will write a letter to the county magistrate and ask him to release him."

Princess Wanchun couldn't help but said: "What on earth are you talking about?"

King Ji and Gu Qing quickly exchanged glances, and King Ji smiled and said: "It's a small thing, not worth mentioning. Princess Wanchun, the steward of the palace bought a Persian cat from Dongshi today. This cat is smart, light, docile and gentle.

It's quite cute, would you like to enjoy it, my dear sister? If you like it, I can give it to you."

Wan Chun was immediately diverted, nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, okay!"

Gu Qing said knowingly: "I would like to thank His Royal Highness King Ji again for his generosity, and thank His Royal Highness the Princess for the introduction. I will retire."

After leaving Prince Ji's Mansion, Gu Qing walked on the street with a gloomy expression.

The matter was half settled. King Ji had promised not to pursue the matter, but Gu Qing had no confidence in Song Gensheng. With Song Gensheng's temperament, even if King Ji did not pursue the matter, Song Gensheng would not be kind.

So strictly speaking, the matter has not been resolved at all. If Song Gensheng is unwilling to be kind, Gu Qing's running up and down in Chang'an will be useless.

Frankly speaking, Prince Ji's attitude is pretty good. He doesn't have that arrogant attitude and doesn't have the arrogant and domineering attitude of being bossy. From the beginning to the end of Gu Qing's meeting with him, he acted like

Gentle and polite, elegant and gentleman-like.

This is the correct attitude of a prince and what he looks like when he is well educated.

The reason why Song Gensheng was able to forgive Song Gensheng without hesitation was simply because of Gu Qing's status. Gu Qing was already well-known in Chang'an City and had a good relationship with Concubine Yang Guifei and Yang Guozhong. As an idle prince with no hope of competing for the throne, King Ji naturally couldn't help it.

He was willing to easily build a grudge with a young man who might become a successful person in the future. In addition, Gu Qing took the initiative to come to plead guilty, and his attitude was very low. King Ji had face, so he forgave him calmly.

The trouble now is that King Ji doesn't pursue the case anymore, but Song Gensheng doesn't want to stop.
