Chapter 33 The little maid just wants to be free soon (33)

Xu Zhiyi got up early in the morning and learned from Xingchen Xingyao that at yesterday's dinner, the emperor conferred the title of Protector of the Country on Gu Tingfeng. This Protector of the Country was of a much higher rank than what his father had granted him, and the Emperor also

Gu Tingfeng was rewarded with a house in the middle of Beijing, dozens of acres of farmland in the suburbs of Beijing, and tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver.

Gu Tingfeng's identity also changed from the crown prince to the new Duke Gu, and Gu's father, who was originally bedridden, became the old Duke and continued to enjoy the salary from the court. This was a gift from the court to the Gu family. Originally, only his son could inherit the throne.

No father and son both received salary from the imperial court.

Xu Zhi realized that he had worked hard for nearly a year and was still less than Gu Tingfeng. He felt a little sad, but after checking his accounts yesterday, he felt better instantly.

Gu Tingfeng's victory made the capital city, which had been in a depressed atmosphere for most of the year, lively again. Xu Zhiyi's business naturally improved. After this time, there were many new rich people in the court, most of whom went to the battlefield with Gu Tingfeng.

The nobles in the capital were naturally trying their best to win over these upstarts. After all, winning over them was equivalent to having a relationship with Gu Tingfeng.

So the ladies of each family took turns to have banquets, and these ladies naturally had to dress up to attend, and Zeqi was becoming the key target of many families.

Naturally, some people also have their thoughts on Gu Tingfeng himself. After all, he is young and promising. He only has Yan Suyu as his fiancée, but this does not mean that he cannot have a side wife and a concubine. With his wealth and status, it is impossible for him to only marry one wife.

But he said that after Gu Tingfeng attended the morning court on the second day, he went to Wangjiang Tower and sat down by the window to wait for Yan Suyu. He also looked at Xu Zhiyi through the window. When Yan Suyu made an appointment with him yesterday, he unconsciously chose this place.

In fact, he originally wanted to sit here for a while.

Seeing Xu Zhiyi's busy figure and smiling eyes, Gu Tingfeng's mouth curled up unconsciously. When Yan Suyu came up, she saw Gu Tingfeng like this, with a rare gentle look on his face.

Yan Suyu stepped forward, followed his gaze, and soon saw Xu Zhiyi. Her face stiffened for a moment, and she interrupted: "Prince Gu."

Although Gu Tingfeng is now the Duke, this title makes Gu Tingfeng much older. In addition, the old Duke is still alive, so everyone still calls him the Crown Prince.

Gu Tingfeng came back to his senses, looked at Yan Suyu, motioned her to sit down, and then looked at Xu Zhiyi for the last time, and called the waiter to serve the food.

"Your Majesty, don't ask me what I want to say?" Yan Suyu was in a bad mood and didn't want to go around the bush.

Gu Tingfeng raised his eyebrows. In the past, he only thought that the woman in front of him was gentle and always spoke tactfully to him. Today, she was so direct and direct, she looked a bit like the little maid. It seemed that the more than half a year of his absence had indeed changed a lot of people.

After pouring a cup of tea for Yan Suyu, he said, "Then what does Miss Yan want to say?"

"Miss Yan! Prince Gu! Even though we are engaged, you have always been indifferent to me, like a stranger, without any intimacy!" Yan Suyu smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly, but what he said made Gu Tingfeng stunned. He

I have never had any other feelings for a woman, and I have always felt that getting married is just a task for the family, so I don't understand how two engaged people should get along with each other, and I have never thought about this issue.

Seeing his confusion, Yan Suyu smiled and said, "I will try to call you Tingfeng, and you can also call me Suyu, okay?"

Gu Tingfeng thought for a while, nodded and said: "I didn't pay attention before, but I will call you Suyu later."

"Tingfeng, do you like Zhiyi?" Yan Suyu said what she said today and carried it out to the end. She stayed up all night last night, just thinking about this matter, and going roundabout with Gu Tingfeng would not solve anything, and would only make herself uncomfortable.

, it is better to say whatever you want, anyway, now you and Gu Tingfeng are tied together, and both of them know that they cannot be separated easily.

Gu Tingfeng paused while drinking tea. He did not expect that his future wife would ask him so bluntly about his feelings for another person, and there was no serious jealousy, only calm. Did she find out a long time ago, or she still has no feelings for him, so

So peaceful?

Yan Suyu just looked at him quietly, without speaking to urge her, just waiting for his answer.

After a long time, Gu Tingfeng looked out the window and said: "Yes, I remembered what she said countless times on the battlefield. When I dream at night, I always seem to dream of every scene with her. During the time when I was injured, I relied on her to treat her.

It was only through the longing that I got through it.”

"Actually, I don't mind if you marry Zhiyi on the day you marry me. Although you can't give her the position of an equal wife, it's still appropriate to give her a wedding." Yan Suyu saw Gu Tingfeng's move, smiled and continued:

"You also know that with our current identities and what we have experienced, we can no longer be untied. I am also willing to be your wife and live a lifetime of respecting you as a guest."

Yan Suyu pretended to be calm on her face, but she was betting in her heart. She had bet before, and she won. Gu Tingfeng gave her the status and respect she wanted. This time she wanted to bet that Xu Zhiyi had promised her that they would be together for the rest of their lives.

She will not change because of Gu Tingfeng. If she loses, she will admit it. If she wins, she will not lose anything by telling Gu Tingfeng her feelings. After all, she has been devoted to him for so many years.

When Gu Tingfeng heard her confession, he felt guilty for a moment. For the first time, he clearly knew a girl's feelings, but he let her know his feelings for another person.

After the conversation between the two ended, Gu Tingfeng went to the Gilded Hall. Xu Zhiyi was busy when he suddenly saw many people saluting in one direction. He turned around and saw Gu Tingfeng at the door. He was wearing a red gown today and his hairstyle was no longer the same as before.

Half draped behind his back, but all tied up, he looked much more mature and capable than before, quite a bit like a young general.

When he walked towards her, Xu Zhiyi unconsciously thought of Jiang Muye. Every time he finished playing and walked from the basketball court, she always felt that his body was full of the high-spiritedness of a young general. Before,

She couldn't see it in Gu Tingfeng, but Gu Tingfeng, who had returned from this experience, had this kind of temperament.

Gu Tingfeng walked up to her and saw that she seemed to be looking at others through him. He felt a little unhappy, so his tone became harsh: "I came to see what good accessories you have here and buy some for Suyu."

Suyu? Xu Zhiyi was a little surprised, but thinking that Yan Suyu had stayed at the Duke's Mansion for him for more than half a year, the relationship between the two would naturally heat up, so he accepted this title. Thinking of the awards Gu Tingfeng had received, he felt that today's financial fortune was good, so

He introduced Gu Tingfeng diligently.

Gu Tingfeng saw her happily introducing various jewelry to him, including jewelry that could be used to meet the empress in the palace after getting married, and jewelry that would be needed when meeting other ladies. She presupposed many possibilities, but she did not see her own feelings.

, without considering that she could also appear in his future life.

"If it were you, which one would you choose?" Gu Tingfeng interrupted her.

Only then did Xu Zhiyi look at him seriously. He just stared at her for a moment. Many emotions were expressed through his eyes. Xu Zhiyi could see it, but she didn't want to know, so she picked up a relatively simple silver hairpin.

Said: "Well, I like freedom, and I can't climb up to any high-profile family. I just want to be an ordinary small businessman, so I don't show off my wealth. This hairpin is the most suitable for us businessmen."
