It took a lot of effort for Ye Shi to press his beating heart back into his chest.

At this time, Lu Jinxi also put down the tea cup, took the initiative to search for the topic, and had a few gossip with Ye Shi, and somehow mentioned the snow outside.

This time, Mrs. Ye remembered one thing: "Lichun has just passed, and the weather is still cold. Your family and the Grand Master's Mansion are also inherently friendly, I wonder if you heard? The old lady has a leg disease again. …”

old lady?

Who was the first among the civil servants of the dynasty?

If Lu Jinxi remembers correctly, it should be called "Gu Chengqian". He heard that he has a leg problem, but...

"I've been ill recently, and the news from the outside has not come in for a while. But what's wrong here?"

"That's not true." Mrs Ye shook her head and smiled, "I just heard that the old lady went out last night, like she went to the Jokhang Temple. I don't know if it's true or not. Anyway, she fell ill when she came back... "

Jokhang Temple.

Lu Jinxi was taken aback, it was a coincidence that she only returned from the Jokhang Temple this afternoon.

Ye Shi glanced at her, but she didn't see anything unusual on her face, so she didn't say much, only said: "I originally thought that the eldest princess and Taishi are closer, and that one is at the Jokhang Temple again. You happened to go to the Jokhang Temple today, so you may not know any news. If I can inquire from you, I will be able to take advantage of it, and I can prepare for the birthday banquet in ten days. Alas, it seems that now, is it right? Coincidentally, I have to go back and find out for myself..."

The eldest princess is Lu Jinxi's aunt, titled "Yongning", the elder sister of the current Qing'an Emperor.

Thirteen years ago, the palace changed. It was because the eldest princess and Gu Taishi cooperated with each other and helped Emperor Qing'an to ascend to the throne. Therefore, it was not the general's residence that had a close relationship with Gu Taishi, but the Yongning eldest princess and Gu Taishi.

Lu Jinxi had already checked this out.

She also knew a thing or two about this Grand Master Gu. After assisting the emperor in inheriting the great treasure, he became the first in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.

Except Ding You spent three years because of the death of Mrs. Gu six years ago. In the court, he always said one thing, and others dared not say two.

Emperor Qing An trusts this old guy very much.

It's just that Gu Chengqian is very smart, and he doesn't do anything out of the ordinary in private. He seldom even holds birthday banquets, and it's often just a meal with the family.

Ye Shi actually said that he wanted to prepare for Taishi Gu's birthday banquet.

Dare, this time is going to be a big deal?

and……

that one?

Lu Jinxi only felt that these three words were too obscure, and he couldn't react for a while, and there was a bit of confusion in his eyes.

She murmured, "Which one?"

When Ye Shi heard this, he was completely taken aback, and he couldn't believe it: "You...a famous person like him, he had a bit of a relationship with you, you, don't forget it. ?"

Chapter 11 Golden Scales

forget?

She really doesn't really know that.

Looking at Ye Shi's reaction now, the person, the original body should have known each other, I'm afraid there is a deep connection.

If you can't say it well, you might be exposed.

The situation is actually a bit critical, but Lu Jinxi has been through the wind and waves, and he has his own way to deal with this situation.

At this moment, she did not shy away from Ye Shi's gaze, but instead smiled vaguely, and said half-truly on purpose, "I really forgot."

Ye Shi really hit the mark.

She is very shrewd, knows a lot, thinks a lot, and naturally thinks a lot at the moment.

Seeing Lu Jinxi's half-smiling expression, combined with the old things she knew, she could see a bit of sarcasm, but she just thought she understood and deliberately pretended to be confused with herself.

Can……

With those things going on back then, Lu Jinxi didn't want to mention "that one", which was quite normal.

Holding the little cover clock, Mrs Ye sighed and said, "I was confused for a while, and I forgot that you and them, Madam, have a grudge. After all, when Wei Yi squeezed you out like that, Gu Juefei became friends with her again. It's normal to take him with you now that you don't want to see him..."

This short sentence gave Lu Jinxi the information he wanted almost immediately.

She suddenly remembered-

heard.

Whether it was Wei Yi or Gu Juefei, she had heard of it.

It's just that what she heard was the anecdote of the most reputable talents and beauties in the market, while what Ye Shi mentioned was the obscureness in the courtroom, and she didn't get in touch for a while.

This Wei Yi is the number one beauty in Beijing, far surpassing the original one.

And Gu Juefei, the eldest son of Grand Master Gu, is even more talented. heard that he took the third flower at the age of 23 and has a good relationship with Wei Yi.

Everyone said that they were talented and beautiful, and they were extremely right.

Unexpectedly, Wei Yi later entered the palace and became a favored concubine.

Judging from Ye's words now, this "Xuecuiding" is probably somewhere in the Jokhang Temple.

Because this fact is too legendary, and there are too many places to discuss, so even if it happened five or six years ago, people still remember it and often mention it.

It's just that Lu Jinxi didn't know that there were still festivals between Yuan Shen, Wei Yi and Gu Juefei.

Her understanding of Gu Juefei was limited to the few words the maids said when they were pregnant, so even if she remembered it, there was no clue on her face.

The thick eyelashes trembled lightly, Lu Jinxi gave a light laugh, she already had the confidence in her heart, and began to repeat Ye's words: "It's been such a long time, who can remember it all the time? Madam Shizi said just now, Grand Master Gu. I went to the Jokhang Temple last night, and Gu Da Gongzi happened to be at the Jokhang Temple..."

Her tail tone gradually fell, as if she was thinking.

After Xue Kuang left, Lu Jinxi hardly went out.

Ye Shi didn't know her details, she just assumed that she didn't know anything, or that she didn't get involved in these matters on weekdays. If she didn't understand, she answered naturally: "This is going to be a big event..."

Who doesn't know about Gu Juefei's falling out with his family a few years ago?

Master Gu was so angry that he scolded and disobeyed, but who could compare to Gu Juefei?

Fifteen to study abroad, nineteen to Beijing.

In the past four years, his friends have spread all over the Jiangnan Shilin, and now many of them are officials in the DPRK.

He is a 23-year-old Tanhua himself, no matter whether he is a scholar of high school from a poor family in Beijing, or a son of a rich and powerful family, all of them are eager to make friends, and when he mentions him, he sincerely admires them.

and……

Gu Juefei has done a lot of things in private, and Ye Shi has only heard of it a little bit, but thinking about it so far makes his heart tremble.

Whether in terms of talent, in terms of means, or even in terms of mind, which one is he not better than the old master Gu?

Even if he had a falling out with his family, anyone with eyes would know that the eldest son of Gu Taishi's favorite and most high hopes.

Having been in the noble family of Hou Menxun for a long time, Ye Shi's eyes are not simple at all.

She can see through many things.

Now they have been analyzed in detail for Lu Jinxi, and they are well organized and the context is clear.

"Madam, you should have heard that the second son of the Grand Master's Mansion passed the Juren exam last year, and is considered a young talent; even the children born by Mrs. Gu's wife, they are all smart and clever."

"But with Gu Da Gongzi Zhuyu in front, they became the light of fireflies."

"Even if they do well, there will always be an elder brother on their head. Even in the heart of Grand Master Gu, no one can compare to his eldest son..."

This is the first time that Lu Jinxi has heard Gu Juefei describe Gu Juefei in such detail. This...
