The His Majesty's movements were not slow, but he still pounced on empty air. This time, the Crown Prince was clever enough to withdraw everyone ahead of time and actually sang a song for the His Majesty about an empty city plan. Other than the hardworking farmers, there was no sign of a single soldier.
As long as there is no end to it, the crown prince would not completely remove all of it. Leaving behind some firewood, there is a high chance that he will become a disaster in the future. Gu Yun held onto the empty wine cup in his hand, and stared at the picture of the fire rod in Sheng Luan's hands, but his gaze seemed to drift far away.
His Majesty's suspicions caused him to be indecisive and indecisive. After all, the crown prince did not have the intention to spare his life for his father.
Sheng Luan stared at the drawing for a long time without seeing anything, he raised his head and said: "I feel that the crown prince is not enough to be afraid of, after a while, the powers in the imperial court will not allow the crown prince to rise again, it will not be a great battle."
However, the hidden danger of the crown prince was not here. Instead, it was in his unfathomable power, where this group of rats, which could not be exposed to the light, continued to grow in the dark. It was unknown when they would appear and bite back, and that was what people had to be wary of.
"You have to be careful of your wife." The drunk King Jin suddenly spoke up.
"His Majesty has given her a title at this time, the meaning behind her warning is very clear. Furthermore, she appeared in the manor that day, so I don't care if she discovered any of their secrets or not, but I think that she might already be targeted."
Gu Yun gradually tightened the grip on the cup, and just as he was about to crush it, he suddenly let go, and said meaningfully, "I understand."
Once Xie Jingxi got back to his room, she immediately entered the clean room. Closing the door, it seemed that even Ming Yu could not enter. This was the first time Miss Ming Yu took a bite out of her, and she looked at Fang Dai strangely, "Sister Fang Dai, what's wrong with our Miss?"
Fang Dai patted Ming Yu's head, "Don't worry, Madam will probably be tired.
It was obvious that this was only used to coax Miss Ming Yu. Fang Dai turned around and walked out of the house, she called for a brother from the shadows with a dark face, "Which one of you followed Madam just now?"
"Miss Fang Dai, it's the Second Young Master that has seen Madam. It's just that the Second Young Master is more vigilant than we thought. We're a little far away, so we didn't hear anything."
Fang Dai said as she looked her in the eye, "I got it, be more careful in the future."
Fang Dai pondered whether she should tell the young master about this matter. She had followed Xie Jingxi for a few days, and had probably figured out Xie Jingxi's temperament, that she could hide most of the little things they had done in the dark from her. Although she didn't say anything, she didn't wish to report everything to the young master without reservation.
These two people were shrewd, even if they did not use the messenger, the things in their hearts might not be able to hide from each other, and might even enjoy the process of mutual contemplation. It did not seem like there was any meaning in being too transparent, so Fang Dai decided to let their young master guess.
Xie Jingxi immersed herself in the bath barrel for a long time, she did not know how many times she had rubbed her mouth, but after rubbing off a layer of skin, she still could not vent her hatred, and could only wish for Gu Heng to become a spinning top.
She thought that he was the victim of a family, and even felt that he was pitiful. What a pity, she had never seen anyone try to court death like this, it was fine if you were just a good son of yours, but you just had to involve yourself with the crown prince, what a fool!
Right now, she felt more and more that living in Marquis Mansion was not a wise move, but she couldn't move it right now either. It was such a headache!
When Gu Yun returned, when he was just about to change his clothes, his face had returned to how it was before, and as usual, he asked him if he had eaten or something, "Eh? You drank. "
Gu Yun deliberately went to take a bath and change his clothes, but he was still able to smell the scent, "En, I drank a cup." Gu Yun glanced at her without batting an eyelid, then suddenly went over and hugged her before placing his on the bed, and stared at the corner of her mouth, "How long have you been soaking in this, your hands are already wrinkled."
"I've been busy all day, so I didn't have much to drink. I just soaked for a bit longer."
"The corner of his mouth is broken too. Does it hurt?"
Xie Jingxi lowered her eyelids, suppressing the fire in her heart, "It's okay, I let the dog bite."
Gu Yun laughed, "To think that you would be so shameless." He reached for a bottle of ointment on the side of the bed and carefully applied it to her mouth with his finger. "Don't take it lightly. You'll know the pain when your skin is dry."
Xie Jingxi waited for him to finish applying the medicine, then leaned over and hugged his waist, her face nestled under his chin, "Xuanchen, in a few days, let's go to the village and stay there for a few days."
Gu Yun embraced her, "If you want to go, I naturally have no objections. You just happened to have been given the title, I think it's just a favor. If you're impatient, let's go hide for a while."
"Mm, then it's decided. Later on, I will raise a few dogs and a few cats in the manor, and then I will take Grandfather and Mama Chen over. The manor will be more lively."
But who told his wife to want it? He had to satisfy her at all costs, "Alright, no matter what you say, we can change our villa into a field."
This time, Xie Jingxi was really happy. She rubbed his neck like a little kitten, but there was nothing she could do about it. She was also reluctant to let go of her, so she held her tightly in her embrace.
On the second day after Fang Wanqing entered the Lady Zeng, she rushed over to Lady Zeng early in the morning to serve her. When Xie Jingxi saw her, she was shocked;
waited outside the door for an hour before he decided to go in. This caused Lady Zeng to jump, "Aunt Fang woke up quite early."
Fang Wanqing was a very knowledgeable person and looked very gentle and courteous, but she must have thought that she was the type that the elders liked the most. Although Lady Zeng could tell at a glance that she did not get along well with Gu Heng, she was still calmed down by the sudden hospitality. As his mother-in-law, she had never been able to enjoy the service of a wife.
Fang Wanqing personally poured tea for them and even went as far as to stand at the side and wait upon them for breakfast. She then added porridge and food for the Lady Zeng: "Sanguine always gets up early, it's fine even if there's nothing to do anyway.
In the end, she was not the real daughter-in-law. Lady Zeng did not advise her to sit down and eat together as she calmly told her to wait on him at the side, "You are a sensible person, it's just that you do not have to wake up this early or come over everyday. They also do not come everyday.
Fang Wanqing replied. She did not say yes or no, and continued doing her job. Xie Jingxi usually came over after Lady Zeng had finished her meal in a hurry, but seeing Fang Wanqing massaging her shoulders and legs for Lady Zeng, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
"Greetings Grand Mistress."
Fang Wanqing took the initiative to greet her, and Xie Jingxi replied: "Aunt Fang is very early, I have to trouble you to wait on mother."
"Since the Grand Mistress is so serious, it's only right for us to split it up with her."
She should have been the first one to serve the Second Young Mistress, but it was clear that Fang Wanqing did not have this intention. She clearly knew in her heart that fawning on the Second Young Mistress was useless, and that in this mansion, the Second Young Mistress was a person who didn't need to be helped.
Xie Jingxi sighed in her heart. Just because of this, Xie Jingqi didn't even bother to hurry over after taking off her shoes. She estimated that not long later, Lady Zeng would be tightly gripped by Fang Wanqing.
When he first saw Fang Wanqing, he did not have a clue who she was. Lady Zeng glanced at him, "What did you manage to do yesterday, you even forgot about the days when Aunt Fang entered the door."
Oh, so it's Aunt Fang. Gu Heng didn't mind and said: "I naturally have something important to attend to, how could I have forgotten about it on purpose. Didn't I come over early in the morning to apologize to you?"
Lady Zeng looked at him accusingly, "If you want to anger me, then do it. Aunt Fang is a sensible person, you better not mistreat him in the future."
Fang Wanqing stood in front of Lady Zeng with her eyebrows lowered. Gu Heng looked at her impatiently, "What are you doing here so early in the morning?"
Fang Wanqing bit her lips and did not say anything. Her husband had already made her lose face early in the morning, but she could not say anything about it. From the moment he promised to marry him, she already knew that it would be like this.
Seeing that the Aunt Fang didn't dare to say anything, the Lady Zeng felt that it wasn't good to have to be served for the whole morning so she spoke up for her: "You too, the Aunt Fang just entered the door, why are you being so fierce towards her? She only came to help me get up in the morning, you guys are so busy, how sick are you?"
Gu Heng did not say anything, and only subconsciously glanced at Xie Jingxi. Lady Zeng's words had knocked over the person at the top, and was truly embarrassing, but Xie Jingxi acted as if she did not hear it at all. Even from the moment he arrived until now, she did not even glance at Xie Jingxi, and pretended that he was not there.
Xie Jingxi would definitely not take her words to heart. In the end, Lady Zeng was not her genuine wife, and her face was nothing more than a mess.
When Lady Zeng saw that no one replied, she also felt that it was boring. However, when she raised her eyes, she suddenly realized that half of the corner of Gu Heng's mouth was off, and after looking carefully, she asked: "Where did the wound on your mouth come from?"
