"Your Royal Highness, may I ask what kind of person escaped from that Thief's cave? How can she still be considered as a virgin?" Gu Zixian had a burning palm imprint on his face, and when he faced Duan Chengxuan, he was even more tearful.

Duan Chengxuan's movements froze, and Xiao Hai, who was beside him, also looked at the person that Su Yu Wan had pulled in.

The two daughters of the Gu family, on the other hand, looked like enemies.

"Moreover, I only casually mentioned it and she hit me …"

"Go down." Duan Chengxuan said softly as he lowered his head to continue reading the document in his hand.

Gu Zixian was pulled down in disbelief. No matter how much he cried, Duan Chengxuan didn't want to believe it.

Although his wounds had already healed, he did not have much strength left. Normally, even if he wrote down the prescription, he would have to stop several times. With such a clear palm print, Gu Liuyan, who was powerless, could not hit it.

Thinking up to this point, Duan Chengxuan recalled that she seemed to have never been fat before.

"Chengshan, go and make up for it. Tell the kitchen to cook more food and send it over."

"But …" "The wangfei has already sent Qing Dai to Hundred Flavors Restaurant to buy food." Cheng Shan felt awkward.

Duan Chengxuan's face immediately darkened. "How much silver did she use in the estate?"

"Not only is the silver from the palace useless, but when the princess was not around, Lady Qi Rou had already sent a thousand taels of silver to the mansion, and another two thousand to the medicine house for preservation. Every ten days, the Hall of Healing would also send several dozen taels of silver to the manor."

So many.

Duan Chengxuan had never thought that she would be so intelligent on the river, and his Prince Jing Residence only had a few thousand taels of silver, which was more than enough for them to live a full life.

He thought for a moment, then stood up and headed to Phoenix Cry Garden.

He also wanted to ask about Su Yuwan's condition.

However, he pushed open the main door of Phoenix Cry Garden. There was no one here, no servants. It seemed that other than the house Gu Liuyan was currently living in, the other rooms were all covered in dust and some cobwebs could be seen.

In the main hall, Bai Pi was eating on the corner of the table.

Gu Daiyan, on the other hand, fiddled with Bai Dan's head from time to time before starting to eat.

"Your Highness, why didn't you go in?" Cheng Shan asked softly.

"I will punish you with three months' worth of silver." After saying this, Duan Chengxuan could only resist the thought of eating with her as he returned to the study. "Is this all Gu Zixian's rumors?"

"Yes, but I've already sent people to settle it." Chengshan said in a low voice. This matter was only discussed by a group of people in the prince's mansion. People outside knew that Gu Danyan had only gone back to Ling Nanyun, so he did not know about Mirage.

"Tonight, Ben went to her place."

"Lady Wan-Er is waiting for it." Cheng Shan was curious.

"It doesn't matter. I said I was going to find out about Wan-Er's condition." Duan Chengxuan only picked up his brush once more and continued to handle the matters in his hands, not forgetting to report to the Emperor that he was safe.

The night was a bit cold, so Gu Daiyan was exhausted and fell asleep early. Bai Dai laid on the bed and fiddled with her black hair until it was lifted up.

Duan Chengxuan put the white peony onto the table at the side, then sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Gu Daiyan's face.

The current Wu Qing hadn't dispersed, and along the way, he was unable to wipe out her nightmares. However, Duan Chengxuan could only see from the sidelines, and he didn't know what was trapping her at night.

He also climbed onto the bed and, just like before, embraced her in his arms. When he touched her wrist, he saw that she was frowning slightly. Duan Chengxuan's movements only became more gentle.

Gu Mingyan was even more fragile than the vase.

Before the sky brightened, she was not surprised by the fact that there was someone else by her side from time to time. It was just that today, she always had a bad premonition, and she could only step on the ground barefooted. She opened the window, and a light drizzle fell outside.

The white peony rubbed at her warm feet and meowed a few times.

"What's wrong?" Duan Cheng Xuan woke up and sat on the bed to look at her.

"I keep having the feeling that something is going to happen." Gu Daiyan was just looking out the window. Her premonition had come without warning, but her heartbeat had started to quicken and she couldn't calm down. She quickly put on her coat and walked outside. Qing Di still wanted to stop her, but to no avail.

Gu Liuyan had only come to the door of the mansion when Yun Fu knelt at the door, his eyes red.

"From today onwards, you are the Yun Family Patriarch."

Yun Fu kowtowed heavily towards her, heavily smashing into her heart.

Duan Chengxuan, who followed closely behind, brought up an umbrella as he arrived beside her. He looked at Yun Fu before him and had yet to react.

Gu Daiyan, on the other hand, just locked the door tightly.

She was stupid.

Why did Yun Qingyang want to find a foster son for her? Why did Yun Qingyang want her to settle the conflict with the Mirage by herself? Why did Yun Qingyang want her to stay in Ling Nan …

The rain turned into a torrential downpour. Gu Liuyan lifted Yun Fu up from the ground with a cold expression: "Grandfather knows all this, why didn't you tell me!"

Bloodline love was deeply engraved in his heart.

It was no wonder that ever since she left Ling Nan Yun's family, she woke up from her dream every night.

"Because the mirage Zhu Family and the Yun Family complement each other, Old Master Yun is the last person to be infected with the Yun Family's poison. However, he does not want you to be hurt, and he is still buried at the foot of the mountain." Yun Fu bit his lip, and rain began to flow down his face.

"Heh …" Gu Liuyan laughed at herself and pushed Yun Fu away.

Everything had happened without any warning, leaving her at a loss on what to do. Yun Qingyang was indeed her grandfather, to think that she had hidden it so well.

"Then what about Qingze?" Gu Daiyan wiped away the tears on his face.

"Young Master Qing is still in the Yun clan. However, the position of the Yun clan head …"

Gu Danyan's eyes dimmed. Duan Chengxuan, who was behind her, wanted to pull her over, but he saw the determination in her eyes. He said in a low voice, "Go back to Ling Yun's clan and bring me a message."

"Yes."

"I will accept the position of Patriarch. I will send a letter every month informing you of the situation. I will head over to the emperor's side alone later. And lastly, if I die, the position of the Yun Family's Patriarch will be handed over to the lady in white." Gu Danyan wiped away his tears and gently pushed Yun Fu away, "The Yun family cannot be severed in my hands."

"Yes, Patriarch." Yunfu just dived into the rain.

Gu Dai Yan, on the other hand, turned around and saw Duan Chengxuan looking at her with a slightly dazed expression, but the corners of his mouth curled up as he pushed him away. Cheng Shan, who had hurriedly rushed over, was unable to dissuade Gu Dai Yan and could only let Qing Dai attend to him as he arrived before Duan Chengxuan.

However, he heard Duan Chengxuan standing by the door as he muttered to himself, "Gu Liuyan was born extraordinary, so why is this duke only able to see clearly now?"
