In ORDER TO LET HER GO TO school CONVENIENT, every day sent to the road, GU JingCHEN ALL explain well: "If someone asks, you say I am elder brother."

Yan Jinger nodded her head nicely: "Good."

One day, GU Jingchen under the post, by the way to pick up people under the school, see a small Lang Jun take snacks to coax his small fiancee.

"Who is this man?" asked the little man.

"It's my brother," said Yan Jinger with a smile.

Little Lang - jun look, respectfully called: "Brother hello."

Gu Jingchen:...

Little Theatre 2:

Yan Jing 'er crammed before the exam and held Gu Jingchen here.

"My Lord, I don't understand this subject. Tell me --"

She opened the door and found the study full of officials deliberating.

Gu JINGDUST TOOK A PINCH BETWEEN THE BROWS, BUT SWING back EVERYONE: "TODAY to discuss this, your EXCELLENCY first back."

The next day, the people whispered: "I heard that the prime Minister gave his wife a lesson until dawn, but also beat his wife's hand plate heart, the wife cried."

Chapter 1

Early spring, cool breeze, the pedestrians on the road in twos and threes.

In the distance a dusty carriage was coming, and the old horse was walking slowly after all the way. The groom leaned against the wall of the cart and warned, "Madam, the capital is coming soon."

Soon, someone lifted the curtain and saw. Now it is still morning, the sun shines on the roadside ridge of fields, Cui Nen new hair, everything is full of vitality.

The nurse breathed a sigh of relief and hurried to the capital at last. She turned her eyes to the girl, who was still sleeping, and fondly smoothed the hair that fell from her forehead.

The girl's skin was fair and clear, and her features were delicate and small. When she slept, she pressed the side of her face so that one cheek was round and red, and there was something innocent about it.

Her crow feather like eyelash light quiver, VOICE soft waXY listen TO: "NURSE, WE TO the CAPITAL?"

"Yes, but not so soon. You can sleep a little longer."

"No," I said. Yan Jing 'er sat up and rubbed her sore arm.

"In that case, eat something first to cushion your stomach." The nurse took a pancake from her bundle, which she had bought on the way and had two left. She handed one to Yan Jing 'er and poured a bowl of water from the side of the kettle.

Yan Jing 'er took over, the hands of the pancake put overnight has become cold and dry, but she is just obediently and skillfully to nibble.

The nurse saw secretly sigh, originally is the young lady of golden branch jade leaf, only one year time changes so big.

"The poison woman eats and never spits. If I had known how miserable Mademoiselle was down there, I should never have let them take you away."

"But now," said the nurse, "the young lady will be better off in the Chancellery."

Yan Jingjing's eating of the cake slowed down.

"Don't worry, young lady," said the nurse sootheingly, "you are meant to be married, and the two families also handed over a token. But after Mrs. Gu remarried, there was no one in charge of the Gu family, and you were so different in age and thousands of miles apart that neither family mentioned it, so the young lady did not know about the marriage."

"His Lordship did not intend for her to marry so far, but it is impossible now. Your aunt promised you well when she took you away. I never thought she would treat you like this. Indeed, she is either a real aunt or a heartless one."

"The nurse." Yan Jing 'er asked: "In case... What if he doesn't acknowledge the marriage?"

"How CAN NOT RECOGNIZE," THE NURSE VOICE NOW ALSO WEAK SOME: "HE SOMEHOW ALL WHEN THE PRIME MINISTER, SO BIG OFFICIAL TOTAL NEED FACE, THE SCHOLAR ALL TALK ABOUT FILIAL PIETY."

In fact, the nurse did not know.

Gu Jingchen, the second master of the Gu family, is now the powerful prime minister. After all these years, such a man would have forgotten the match, and even if he hadn't, he probably wouldn't want to marry someone... The nurse looked again at the sweet, demure maiden, cardamom-looking, not yet grown.

Besides, she was the daughter of no family, no family, and the wrong family, so it seemed very unlikely.

But what else can you do?

The young lady had lost her parents and had no one to rely on, and had been living with her aunt, who was not her own. If she hadn't come to visit her, she would have been sewing for a living in that shabby yard.

In winter, there was no stove, and his white hands were red with cold. It was the hand that was supposed to write and play, and now...

"If he really denies the marriage, I'll take my lady back to Great Huai Village, only..." The NURSE WIPED THE NEXT CORNER OF THE EYE: "THE YOUNG LADY BODY IS DELICATE AND expensive, SHOULD HAVE LED THE LIFE OF RICH CLOTHES AND food, FOLLOW ME IN THE COUNTRYSIDE WASTE A lifetime, I REALLY DO not bear."

The nurse thought sadly, wiping her eyes with her sleeve.

Yan Jing 'er took the initiative to comfort her, saying: "There is no waste, my nurse is my last family in this world, where you are, home is where."

She did not comfort it is good, such a comfort, the nurse's tears are completely unable to help.

Time, the carriage finally arrives at the gate of the city, waiting for the gap between the queuing into the city, Yan Jinger lifted the curtain and looked out of the eye.

The walls were towering and tall, about three or four feet high. On top stood the guards guarding the city, all looking bleak.

Her throat tightened, her clear eyes calm and firm.

If the person really does not recognize this marriage, then she will go back to the countryside with the nurse, flatly and lightly for a lifetime is not bad.

Soon the coachman gave some directions, and the carriage moved slowly into town. The Prime Minister's office is easy to find. Anyone on the street can point you in the right direction.

"The prime Minister's house is in Chang Fu Street. You saw it in the past." The man said: "It is very conspicuous, the whole street is a prime minister's house, the house is very big."

About another quarter of an hour elapsed before they reached Changfu Street. As the man had said, the whole street was quiet, with no other houses, and a pair of tall stone lions could be seen at a distance in the wide, clean street.

The old car rumbled past and stopped in front of the stone lion.

"Here we are." The driver said.

Yan Jinger helped her nurse out of the carriage and looked up at the lion. Before the distance did not see, a closer look, this stone lion is taller than her, the majestic body is estimated to take three people to hold.

The line of sight along the stone lion forward, is the prime Minister's mansion gate. There were three open, red-painted gates with seven rows of copper nails, and a pair of boulders sitting on either side. The door is in the center of the black plaque is gilded on the two characters - phase mansion.

It was stately and quiet, with only the pair of lanterns hanging at the door to set off the common touch.

After paying the coachman, the nurse came along.

"Oh, my God," she exclaimed, "is this the residence of the second master of the Gu family? Singers say that the prime minister lives in a golden house and wears fine clothes, but it is really so."

Seeing this momentum, the nurse in the heart more uncertain. They both stood at the door, seemingly forgetting to knock.

In fact, I didn't dare to knock.

The bag in Yan Jing's arms was shriveled and contained only a set of clothes and simple jewelry.

It was a long time before she got up the courage to go up the steps. The knocker was made of copper, perhaps weighing two catties. She held it in her hand, and it seemed rather cold and uneasy.

The boy who opened the door was a young boy wearing futou and green Yi sapifuou boots, clean and gentle. Not as a doorman, but as the son of a wealthy family.

Even when he opened his mouth, he said politely, "Who do you dare ask the girl?"

"I..."

Yan Jing looked at the boy's clothes were better than those of ordinary people. Although his face was polite and thoughtful, his heart was full of the pride and pride of the rich and powerful.

She paused, trying to choose her words. "I'm a distant relative of Prime Minister Gu, and I'm here to visit."

No one would believe this, but they were relatives of the Prime Minister's house. Even if it is a relative, so a look, also like a poor relative to autumn wind.

Yan Jinger's cheeks are slightly hot, some embarrassed, because she is really to the autumn wind.

The boy seemed to have encountered such a thing for the first time. He was surprised and soon looked as usual. "I'm sorry, but my excellency is not in your house."

That's a polite refusal. She's not even allowed in.

"Ah, YOU FIRST DON't close the door, my young lady BUT your adult OF..."

"Nurse," Yan Jinger shook her head quickly: "Don't say it."

The nurse realized that she had almost made an impulsive mistake.

Yan Jinger is Gu Prime minister did not go to the door of his wife this matter, no one knows. The two settled this marriage did not take long to move their own, for many years did not contact, estimate that the two adults are gradually did not take this kiss as a serious matter.

Yan Jinger's father said he was not willing to marry his daughter, in fact, the heart is clear marriage will probably yellow. After all, the age difference between the two men, men in a hurry to carry on the family line, can not wait that long. I don't know if the family's already on the other side.

The nurse had also heard that the prime minister Gu had not yet married, so she advised Yan Jing to come to the capital to try her luck. Should he still admit the connection, the young lady would have her back. If not, but presumably also should take into account the original two friendship, appropriate care is.

The nurse came on the way to play such a dream, but did not expect to come to the Prime Minister's house, even the door can not enter.

The weather in February was still a little cold. Standing at the door for so long, Yan Jing 'er's clothes were so thin that she shivered with cold.

As noon approached, the nurse said, "Miss, since the Prime Minister is not at home at the moment, let us first find a place to get out of the cold and eat something warm to fill our stomachs."

Yan Jinger nodded.

Without a carriage, they had to walk. But this was a place where the high and mighty lived, full of great houses, and no tea and wine shops, let alone food shops.

Yan Jinger and her nurse walked for half an hour and turned several streets before they finally saw a chaos stall.

After eating wontons, my stomach finally warmed up. This warmth, the nurse soon drum full of courage, pulling Yan Jing and walked back to the Chang Fu Street.

Open the door or before the boy, Xu is to see Yan Jing a delicate little girl can not bear to lose temper. "My Lord is not at your house," he said patiently.

"Where has it gone? Asked the destitution.

"Is that what you can ask?" Small SI STARE BIG EYE: "MO SAY YOU A PLEBEIAN, BE OTHER NOBLE PERSON CAME ALSO DARE NOT ASK THIS KIND OF WORDS."

The NURSE LAUGHED: "I slip of THE tongue, little brother you do good, my young lady is really your adult relatives, we have a token."

"Come and see the token."

"This CAN'T, THIS TOKEN IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT, MUST HAND OVER TO PRIME MINISTER GU FACE TO FACE."

Guard DOOR SMALL SERVANT IS MADE THOROUGHLY HAVE NO TEMPER, WOODEN FACE WAY: "YOU HURRIEDLY WALK, DON'T WALK AGAIN, I WILL SEND YOU TO SEE AN OFFICIAL."

Then he closed the door again.

No way. We've come a long way. We can't just go back. So they waited a long time in the cold wind, until a quaint carriage stopped at the door, and a man of about forty got out.

"Is your name Yan Jinger?"

The butler Gu Xun took the token and looked at it carefully. A pair of white jade rings buckled with mutton fat was indeed engraved with Gu Jingchen's name.

Gu Xun had been a loyal servant of the Gu family for many years. Before that, Gu Jingchen had been waiting on him since before his rise. Therefore, he is also aware of the marriage between Gu and Yan.

It's just that after so many years, things that were supposed to go away suddenly pop up today.

After thinking about this for a while, Gu Xun said to Yan Jing 'er, "Young lady, please sit down and rest. We will make a decision on this matter when my Lord comes back."

Yan Jinger nodded, the foot of the soft velvet carpet still feel not steady. When they met this man at the door, he led them in with only a few brief questions.

From the corner of her eye she surveyed the room.

The hall was luxuriously furnished, with a master chair of rosewood placed under two columns of lacquer, and two characters hanging on the walls. What was written was not clear, but the characters were vigorous and vigorous. In the center of the hall hung a plaque, which read "the sea embraces all rivers" four characters.

On the east and west sides are carved glass Windows, under which are placed delicate potted plants, one of which is Clivia, in full bloom in February.

After a while, the maid came in with the tea, and then she went out again, leaving only Yan Jinger and her nurse in the hall.

The NURSE STANDS BEHIND HER, LOW VOICE WAY: "YOUNG LADY MO AFRAID, FOR A WHILE SAW GU PRIME MINISTER YOU GOOD LIFE WITH HIM TO SAY, YOU WHEN YOUNG STILL SAW GU PRIME MINISTER IT."

"When? I don't remember." "Asked Yan Jing 'er.

"When the young lady was born," said the nurse, "Prime Minister Gu came with his grandmother."

"......"

Yan Jinger pressed her lips together.

"Master Gu and Master used to know each other well, and the two wives got along quite well. The marriage was made when her wife was still pregnant with her eldest son."

The nurse continued: "Only wait for the lady to give birth to a daughter can be married, who knows the first two children are sons, so that the young lady was born in the past ten years."

"This GIFT WAS GIVEN TO EACH OTHER AT THE TIME OF THE ORAL marriage, BUT it WAS NOT RETURNED TO THE family afterwards, so when the young lady was born, this thing was acquiESced."

"Young LADY DO NOT KNOW, MASTER AND MADAM GOT A DAUGHTER HAVE MUCH JOY, EVERY DAY EMBRACE IN THE BOSOM NOT WILLING TO LET GO, THIS NEXT GOOD, YOUNG LADY CAME PRIME MINISTER HOUSE, THEY HAVE SPIRIT IN THE DAY ALSO CAN REST ASSURED SOME."

When it comes to her dead parents, she can't control her tears.

She lowered her head, originally wanted to slow the tears of that sour rise in the past, but did not slow down, soon more accumulates more. He had to wipe his sleeve.

Just then, hearing the voice of "adult" outside, Yan Jing Er suddenly sat up straight and turned her head to look.

He was tall and straight, his skin white and clean in a crimson robe. The brow is clear and handsome, there is a scholar scholar's elegance, but the body with a superior forcing the imposing manner.

He went to the door and stopped.

"This is..."

"Your excellency," Gu Xun followed him and reported, "This girl's name is Yan Jinger. She says she is your wife."
