Chapter 36 - Playing All

The sky had just turned white, and there were shadows of people walking around in Xiao Sheng Yuan.

Gu San quietly appeared outside the room and lightly knocked on the door. He unnaturally coughed a few times before reminding his, "Master, it's time for the court to begin."

Inside the room, the candles had all been extinguished and the dim room was completely silent.

Gu Yicheng opened his eyes.

Gu Yicheng sat up, he tilted his head and looked at the lady who was sleeping peacefully inside the bed. She was lying down on the bed with her bedding wrapped around her, her breathing shallow, the fragrance of her body lingering at his nose the whole night.

"Master, the time …" The voice of the Gu San once again sounded outside the door.

"He's up." Gu Yicheng replied snappily. He lifted the blanket and got off the bed, and then unwittingly placed it on Yun Qianliang's body.

"You want to suffocate me?" Yun Qianliang cursed as he pulled out an arm from the blanket and removed the blanket that covered his head. Then, he stared at Gu Yicheng's back.

After a while, Yun Qianliang leisurely withdrew her gaze. Yan Chun yawned and unwillingly got up.

Gu Yicheng went to the neighboring bed to change the official uniform, while Chun Hua and Qiu Yue served her as he stood up.

Usually in Gu Xiangfu, no one would see her, but when Gu Yicheng went to court, she was still sleeping on the bed and did not stand up to send him off, but when they were in Yun Xiang Mansion, they had to show off their love and kindness to their husband, dressing up for him and sending him out.

When Yun Qianliang sent Gu Yicheng to the Yun Palace entrance, a carriage was already prepared outside the door, but Yun Qinan had not yet arrived.

This was also why Gu Yicheng decided to wait for his father-in-law to come out while he had enough time.

When his son-in-law returned, the both of them would go to the imperial court together. Otherwise, in the eyes of outsiders, they would think that the two families were at odds.

Yun Qianliang had a smile on her face, and pretended to be virtuous and dignified looking, but she secretly despised Gu Yicheng's actions in his heart. She did not put the marriage in his heart, and still pretended to be filial and filial as she waited for her father-in-law in the cold wind.

The two of them waited for around the time it took to make a cup of tea before Yun Qinan came out fully dressed in the company of the Qin family.

"Father." Yun Qianliang bowed in greeting.

"Master, it's really different if you look at her. She always loves to stay warm in bed when it's cold. She refuses to get up no matter what. Now she even knows that she has to wait for her husband." Qin family laughed while holding the handkerchief, and teased the young couple, her smile showing her gentleness and happiness.

"How can we be at home when we're married?" Yun Qinan replied straightforwardly, she only glanced at Yun Qianliang slightly, and called for Gu Yicheng to head to the imperial court, "It's getting late, don't miss the timing."

"Father-in-law, please." Gu Yicheng respectfully took half a step back and allowed Yun Qinan to take the first step.

The left and right sides were equal in position, but in the end, the position of the Minister of the Left was still slightly higher, and Gu Yicheng's family had a deep foundation, so they had more power and influence than Yun Qinan, and they treated him like an elder.

Yun Qinan looked at Gu Yicheng with praise, and started to walk towards the carriage.

Gu Yicheng did not mind, the smile on his face was still somewhat unrestrained, but when he turned to look at Yun Qianliang, his unrestrained manner turned into deep love. He placed his palm on her head and gently caressed her neatly combed hair.

"Freezing Sky, don't stay outside for too long. Be careful while you stay in the house to keep warm." With that, he untied the cloak around his body and wrapped her up like a dumpling. "Bind her into a dumpling, and it will not affect our shallow beauty."

"Naughty again." Yun Qianliang bashfully struck him lightly on her chest, her lips were pursed into a shy smile, as the corners of her lips lifted happily. She looked at him with eyes full of unconcealable joy, and gently warned him, "Be careful on the road."

Gu Yicheng supported the back of her head and kissed her forehead, "I'm up."

Watching the carriage leave, Yun Qianliang and Qin family returned.

Just as he entered the door, the Qin family beside him could not help but start talking.

"At first, when you caused yourself to commit suicide, you were still worried that you would be worried about the Jin Wang and not want to get married. The day of the wedding, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to get it off my mind, so I sent a wedding lady to watch over you. He was wiping away the tears in his eyes as they fell, "Qian Qian Qian, I know how you feel about Jin Wang, but don't be too wronged in Gu Xiangfu. It's fine if you can't do it, but we direct daughter don't need to please Gu Xiang and live the life."

Yun Qianliang's eyes turned slightly, looking at the woman beside him who was comforting her with sorrow, she sneered in her heart.

Using Jin Wang to provoke Yun Qianliang was indeed the right decision.

Unfortunately, the time was no longer on her side.

"Because of the engagement I made with the Jin Wang earlier, I always turned a blind eye to other men, which led me to narrow my eyes to the point where I thought that the only outstanding man in the world was the Jin Wang. The Gu Xiang was really dissatisfied at the time of the marriage, not to mention that he caused me to suffer so much on the day of the wedding. Yun Qianliang started to complain along with the Qin family.

"I know, marrying the Gu Xiang has wronged you." Qin family held Yun Qianliang's hand with one hand and stroked her haggard face with the other, "Look at her face, where is his rosiness when he's at home. If I knew earlier, I would have persuaded your father to let you marry to Jin Wang. "

"Are you not afraid of Qingyan getting angry when Mother says that?" Yun Qianliang deliberately asked.

"You foolish child, how can Qingyan compare to you?" Qin family gently pinched her tender cheeks.

Yun Qianliang laughed coldly in her heart as she calculated her next move.

"Mother loves me dearly." Yun Qianliang raised his hand and placed it on Qin family's hand, rubbing it on her palm like a cat, as though he was wary of the servants in the house, he pulled Qin family to the side and said: "Mother, if I am to speak the truth, will you help me?"

The Qin family's eyes revealed a smile of satisfaction, he was as cautious as Yun Qianliang, and said softly: "Did you really suffer grievances in Gu Xiangfu?"

Yun Qianliang frowned. His clear eyes were filled with mist, as if grabbing onto her lifesaver, he tightly grabbed onto Qin family's arm, his tears falling down without a sound, causing Qin family to feel anxious.

"Child, if you have something to say, then say it properly. Why are you crying like this?" Qin family wanted to wipe her tears, but he held both his hands tightly, unable to do so.

Qin family could not help but feel annoyed. Her mouth was dry from trying to persuade Yun Qianliang.

Yun Qianliang immediately stopped after seeing this, she tried her best to hold back his tears, and casually wiped the tears off her face with a handkerchief, "Sorry about that."

"Let's not talk about these foreign words. Tell me what grievances you have suffered, or else mother would not be able to help you." Qin family held Yun Qianliang's hand considerately throughout.

Yun Qianliang looked around, seeing that no one was around, she went closer to Qin family and whispered: "Gu Xiang poisoned me."

Before he finished speaking, Qin family covered Yun Qianliang's mouth.

Seeing her frightened look, Yun Qianliang was even more sure that the person who poisoned her was Qin family.

"Qian Qian Qian, you can't just randomly say that. Do you have any evidence?" Qin family made a gesture of silence, only after seeing Yun Qianliang nod her head did she release the hand that was covering her mouth.

"When I was in the Yun Xiang Mansion, my mother should have known about my body, but after marrying into the Gu Xiangfu, I always took medicine. A few days ago, there were servants in the Gu Xiangfu who poisoned me, so I secretly recruited a doctor to check my pulse, and only then did I find out that I had been poisoned for a long time. Yun Qianliang pleaded in a spoiled manner: "Mother, if you want to save me, if you can escape from this suffering and marry Qingyan and I into the Jin Mansion, I am willing to be a little girl."

"Isn't Gu Xiang very good to you? And even got you pregnant? " The Qin family probed him step by step in order to figure out the truth. Not only did he have to get rid of the playful Yun Qianliang, he also had to get rid of the Gu Xiang in order to guarantee that Yun Qingyan would be able to successfully marry the Jin Wang.

Yun Qianliang quickly shook her head, "Mother might not know this, but the Gu Xiang did indeed love me dearly, and allowed me to carry his flesh and blood. But he had an extremely strong possessive nature, and the past between me and the Jin Wang became a knot in his heart, that's why he wanted to use poison to tie me to his side."

"I know about this matter. I will definitely find an opportunity to tell your father about it. You should return first and not tell anyone about the poison." The Qin family comforted the frightened Yun Qianliang, in case this situation would become bad for her.

Yun Qianliang nodded hesitantly, reminding Qin family over and over again to help her. Only when Qin family agreed to help did he finally leave.

When he returned to the Xiao Sheng Yuan, Yun Qianliang coincidentally met Yun Qingyan who had woken up early to take a walk. By her side, there was only one personal maid left — — Ming Liu.

Seeing that Yun Qianliang was alone, the two of them walked towards her.

"Greetings elder sister." Yun Qingyan was blessed, and supported the willow tree to move it gracefully.

"Yes." Yun Qianliang answered indifferently. After her tears, his eyes were red, compared to the exquisite Yun Qingyan, he was in a sorry state, but she stood there facing the light, the light from the sky shining on her face, shining like white jade. She stared meaningfully at the person blessed by his, and smiled slightly. Yun Qianliang went forward to help his up, and took the initiative to express her goodwill, "Qingyan, please do not take offense to The King's Manor of Ning Xi's matter. After all, I am only a woman from the backyard.

"Since the matter has been resolved, elder sister must have helped. Qingyan can't blame elder sister." Yun Qingyan replied obediently, and then his face blushed red as he said: "If not for elder sister, Qing Yan would not have known that she has such a high position in the Jin Wang's heart, and would have to thank elder sister for that."

Yun Qianliang's smile stiffened, her face changed and she forced out a smile, "If Little Sister really wants to thank me, then why don't you speak up for me in front of Jin Wang?"

Hearing that, Yun Qingyan's elegant and gentle Liu Ye frowned, hesitating in his heart.

"Elder sister, are you trying to …" Yun Qingyan was extremely beautiful, and whenhe frowned, she revealed his delicate look, causing anyone who saw his to feel pity. He was truly just like Lin Dai Yu who came out from a book.

"Seeing that I didn't make myself clear, I have caused sister to misunderstand." Yun Qianliang laughed, "A few days ago, Jin Wang made an appointment to meet me about my sister. It's probably because my collar was stained with dirt, he wanted to help me remove it, in the end, I reacted too fiercely and injured the back of Jin Wang's hand. Don't you think that in the future, my sister and I will have an unpleasant time with Jin Wang, how would that not hurt our relationship? Therefore, I would like to ask little sister to say a few kind words on behalf of big sister to ease the tension. "

"Elder sister, if you say so, let Qingyan give it a try." Yun Qingyan agreed with difficulty.

"Then I'll be counting on little sister."

Only when the entire drama was done could it be considered good!
