Again and again.
Duan Chengxuan couldn't see or see clearly.
Why was Gu Danyan so stubborn no matter what happened to her? She was so proud that she never bowed down. Even though the one who had died was her beloved grandfather, how could she remain indifferent?
"Chengshan, send someone to solve the problem at hand."
After Duan Chengxuan left behind these words, he hurriedly left as well, and he could only recall in detail the actions that Gu Danyan had once committed.
Deceiving and promising the Queen Xu's prescription as a backing, the doctor was kindhearted enough to get to know the Fourth Prince, boldly poisoning Qi Lin, borrowing the force to seize the Misty Rain Pavilion's successor, and boldly proposing for the Mirage to support each other.
No wonder the Sixth Prince admired her.
Regardless of her looks, character, or courage, she, Gu Danyan, was superior to the others. The only flaw was that she did not know what she was trying to do due to her impenetrable heart.
Now that he thought about it, Gu Liuyan wanted money because she wanted him to establish himself in the Sky Flame.
"Who else has the wangfei been in contact with?" In the blink of an eye, Gu Qing Yan had unknowingly climbed into such a position. Yu'er spoke up for her, and the Empress Xu family protected her with a prescription. Furthermore, she didn't lack the silver taels for collaboration with Misty Rain Pavilion.
If she were a man, she would have surpassed her father Gu Cheng as the current Prime Minister in a few years.
"I don't know many people, but I do know a few medicinal herb farmers, as well as the little beggar that was rescued by Ji Shi Tang before, then there's the wonton stall next door, and that Hundred Flavors Restaurant's pastries …" They were all people who were not important.
Duan Chengxuan rubbed his forehead with a headache. "Do you know what she actually wants to do?"
"This subordinate does not know." Ghost truly did not know.
"She climbed up on my shoulder. Do you know if she contacted any military or civil officials in the imperial court?" Duan Chengxuan only rubbed his forehead.
"Is Gu Yan's calculation?" The ghost's face was sullen, he really did not know.
No matter how one looked at it, as long as Gu Danyan came into contact with anyone, the Prince would naturally know why he was only questioning them now.
Did I overthink it?
Duan Chengxuan only raised his eyebrows as he wondered if Gu Daiyan had other plans.
The butler outside the door had already rushed over, followed behind him was Gu Danyan, who had already changed into a plain white robe. Gu Danyan only tied up his hair with a peach wood hairpin as he stood in front of Duan Chengxuan and bowed respectfully, "The butler did not allow me to leave the manor. It's as the prince has said."
"When has This King ever said that?" Duan Chengxuan frowned.
"I was thinking that Lady Wan-Er's condition has worsened recently. That's why …"
"It seems like you really don't want to live anymore." Cheng Shan looked on coldly. His steward had been deducted for three months just because he hadn't brought any items to Phoenix Cry Garden, yet he still dared to not let the wangfei leave today. He really had the guts to spank her.
"The steward only believes that once I leave the Sky Flame, I will no longer be a virgin. That's why the prince looked down on me so much and neglected me. However, when Grandfather left, he did not inform me about the agreement between the Yun Family and the Imperial Family. Now that I wish to make a trip to the Imperial Palace, does Your Highness have any reason to stop me? "
Gu Moyan was having a difficult time getting angry, but he still had an imposing manner.
"Now, this duke also has something to ask you. Do you contact the various powers and contend with them for the sake of you or for the sake of obtaining the authority to establish a foothold for the Yun clan?" Duan Chengxuan stood up as well.
Gu Danyan looked at him strangely and thought about what happened this morning.
So it turned out that Duan Chengxuan was thinking, could it be that I'm marrying into the King's Manor for the sake of the Yun clan's prosperity?
"Previously, I tried to rope in some forces just to protect my own life, but now that I'm thinking for my people, there's nothing wrong with it. If Your Highness wants to talk about love with me, Ming Yan can only inform you with a single sentence." Gu Danyan only knelt in front of Duan Chengxuan as she slightly raised her head to look at him. "Ever since I returned from under the Hundred Herb Cliff that day, the Prince called out Lady Wan'er's name in a daze. Mingyan's feelings have long been shattered, and right now, Mingyan is only the Crown Prince's wife. With so many powers joining his side, the Prince won't be able to do anything to me in the future.
Even Duan Chengxuan didn't know, but his words made him angry from embarrassment.
"If that's the case, then you've really cut off your roots in love."
"How can it be broken?" Gu Liuyan sneered and raised her head to look at him with eyes full of emotion: "I was just trying to be nice, but now I still have things to do, I hope that Your Highness can grant me the request."
With his flawless salute, Gu Pingyan had already shown his full sincerity.
Even from the beginning until the end, she didn't lie to Duan Chengxuan, and as long as he asked, she would answer him truthfully.
Duan Chengxuan felt his heart throb in pain, as he actually missed Gu Mingyan's usually lawless appearance.
But now, she knelt down to pay her respects, only to tell him that she would only be his wangfei in the future.
"You really are extraordinary, to be able to give up even your relationship. Your grandfather only just sent word of your death today, yet you're already impatient to go to the Emperor's side to inherit the Yun Family Patriarch?"
The words of ridicule escaped his mouth, and Duan Cheng Xuan admitted that he only felt injustice for his own sake.
Gu Liuyan did not even raise his head, "Yes, my grandfather has already been buried, and hundreds of my descendents are still alive. I have no one to pour my heart out to, and the only thing I can do now is to put the greater picture at stake."
There was no one to pour out his heart to?
Duan Cheng Xuan walked up to her and pulled her up from the ground. She exerted so much force that even the butler who was kneeling at the side was slightly stunned.
However, Gu Liuyan's eyes were still so clear.
"Since you're This King's wangfei, then are you still a virgin?" Duan Chengxuan suddenly asked.
He just wanted to see her show weakness!
Gu Danyan narrowed his eyes as if he was stung by the pain. In the end, he only raised a rampant smile: "Duan Chengxuan, these words have truly severed my emotional roots. If I were to be sullied by others, I will definitely tell them everything! It's not like I can stand in front of you and talk back and forth with you! "
After waving Duan Chenxuan's hand away, the latter was still stunned on the spot.
"Tell me, I, Wuqing, do you know how grandfather is going to handle the matters of the Yun Family?!"
Gu Danyan's eyes finally turned red, but Duan Chengxuan was only slightly stunned, and before he could speak, Gu Daiyan had already walked out by himself. "Today, I must see the Emperor. Only by knowing the agreement between the Yun clan and the Imperial Family can I …"
"This King will tell you." Duan Chengxuan still held her back and Cheng Shan, who was at the side, only pulled the butler off the floor and closed the door.
"What is it?" Gu Ye Yan rubbed her sore eyes.
In order to obtain the elixir of life, only you, the Yun family, can achieve that. The former emperor, in order to live forever, sold the position of an official to the Yun family as a trade, and before he did it, he caused many members of the Yun family to die with him. Now, you are the last one to marry into the Yun family. Duan Chengxuan arrived at the scene in detail.
Gu Liuyan laughed almost inaudibly.
