Gu Junxiu saw that his face had a look of regret, and smiled slightly and said, "No!"

Hearing his affirmation, Ruan Xiaonuan was relieved. Seeing the Gu Junxiu in white standing there, she asked suspiciously, "What do you want?"

He remembered the surprised expression on Gu Qingcheng's face when he heard about the Imperial Examinations. And yet, she, as a woman, had such insight. He really wanted to know what that space and time was like. With a calm voice, he asked, "How did you know about the Imperial Examinations?"

Ruan Xiaonuan was shocked. She thought that she had actually come from another time and space, and wondered if she would be treated as a demon and then burn him to death? The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was a terrifying thing. She awkwardly laughed and said, "This is because when I was at Ling Yue Kingdom, I had read about this method before. I don't know why, but none of the countries used it."

Gu Junxiu knew who she was and immediately knew that she was lying. He was a little disappointed, because she still did not believe in him. He sighed and left the room.

Ruan Xiaonuan looked at his back, baffled. She felt that he was a little too weird tonight, but she couldn't say what was weird about him.

However, she forgot about it the next day because just as she woke up the next day, the Gui mama beside the empress dowager brought her to Tzu Ning Palace. Seeing how impatient the empress dowager was, she couldn't help but drink a few more mouthfuls of water.

Then, she continued with her story from that day. Unknowingly, it was already noon, and she suddenly remembered that Gu Junxiu should be back by now, but she was still in Tzu Ning Palace.

She fidgeted a little at the thought of his angry face. As he spoke, logic began to fall into disarray. The empress dowager noticed that something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong? Did you encounter something troublesome? "

Just as he was about to continue, Gu Junxiu came in from outside. When he saw her here, he wasn't surprised at all. It was obvious that he had come looking for her. She listened to his magnetic voice say hello and waited for him to take his away because her throat was a little sore.

"Ah Xiu, why have you come to the Tzu Ning Palace today? "Is she here for Little Warm?" This time, when the empress dowager saw him, she was unexpectedly not particularly happy.

Gu Junxiu looked at Ruan Xiaonuan who had her head lowered, and said to the empress dowager sitting at the seat of honor, "He has been serving in the Zhaoyang Palace for too long, and today when he returned, he did not see anyone, and guessed that he must have been sent to the mother, just that there are still many matters that she needs to take care of, and asked the mother to let me take him away."

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager was immediately displeased. She still wanted to know the follow-up to the story, but now that the two of them had brought it with them, she felt an itch in her heart. He couldn't help but mention what he had said that day again, "Ah Xiu, why don't we have Little Warm serve you in the Tzu Ning Palace in the future? I'll have Su Desheng pick out another clever one for you."

Gu Junxiu frowned. Previously, when Gu Qingcheng mentioned about it, he rejected it face to face. He didn't expect that the empress dowager would ask him for someone else now. He really didn't know where this little guy got his allure. He said rather helplessly, "I have already gotten used to her waiting on me. If mother wants to hear a story, let his come to Tzu Ning Palace every day. But he still wants her to stay in the Zhaoyang Palace. "

She knew that the empress dowager wasn't the kind of person to pester and pester, which was why she dared to so boldly raise her opinion. Gui mama could not help but berate, "How dare you, a mere eunuch, want to bargain?"

Ruan Xiaonuan was a timid person, she immediately knelt down and said, "This servant has only said what was said from the bottom of my heart." The empress dowager looked at Gui mama reproachfully, then said in an amiable manner, "I doesn't have any intention of blaming you. You can get up."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Gu Junxiu and said, "Ah Xiu, do you really not agree?"

He still shook his head, especially when he saw Ruan Xiaonuan's frightened look, he felt an indescribable pain in her heart. He thought that only by staying by his side would he be able to prevent her from feeling wronged.

No one knew what he was thinking at the moment. The empress dowager thought that he was only used to Ruan Xiaonuan waiting on him and did not think too much into it. However, when she thought about the story she had just told, she still felt that she did not want Ruan Xiaonuan to leave.

"Esteemed Empress Dowager, if you want to hear it, I'll tell it to you tomorrow. And if you finish listening to the entire story today, wouldn't there be no expectations?"

Ruan Xiaonuan's coarse voice persuaded her, and these words revealed the Empress Dowager's true feelings. She finally agreed to let Gu Junxiu take her away.

On the way back to the Zhaoyang Palace, he couldn't help but slow down his steps. When the two of them were travelling together, he asked her, "Just what method did you use to make the empress dowager like you so much?"

Seeing that there was no one here, Ruan Xiaonuan could not help but reveal her mischievous nature. As she walked, she bounced up and down. She smiled sweetly and said, "Are you envious of me?"

Although she did not use a respectful title, Gu Junxiu was not angry. On the contrary, he liked her look. Perhaps he was infected by her, but a soft smile appeared on his immortal-like face. He said half-truthfully, "This King is indeed envious."

Every time he laughed, Ruan Xiaonuan would not dare to look straight at him. She pretended to look elsewhere and said willfully, "Then you can envy it. In any case, only I know those stories."

Gu Junxiu could not hold back and laughed out loud. When Ruan Xiaonuan heard his laughter, she looked at him in a daze. It had been almost a spring and summer since she had entered the palace, but this was the first time she saw him laugh without restraint. Even though his body didn't seem like an otherworldly immortal energy, it was exceptionally approachable.

When she saw him like this, she suddenly felt the distance between the two of them become a lot closer. She couldn't help but laugh. This small place was filled with the laughter of the two of them.
