She really did know a lot.

He also knew that the Crown Prince didn't want any Humble Class offspring because he was afraid those Humble Class offspring would become his advisors, and it was also possible that some prince would send them to supervise and sow discord. On the other side, the Zhu Family had already been the founder of the country for hundreds of years, and their foundation was enough to make them hate those Humble Class offspring even more.

With the two sides pressed together, there was nothing the Emperor could do.

Therefore, ever since the establishment of the crown prince, it had been difficult for the offspring of the Humble Class to rise above the masses. Even if they could do so, they would have to wait for the personal advice of the emperor.

"It's just that Miss, why do you suddenly want to know about this? This is just a matter of small talk." Fairy Qingmei wiped her feet and carried her to the bed.

"Naturally, I have to understand everything." Gu Daiyan rolled onto the bed and waved at Qing Dai: "I still feel a little cold."

"I'll get you more bedding." Fairy Qingmei slung the cloth over her shoulder and left with the water.

Hearing the silence in the room, Gu Liuyan sneakily got off the bed, put on a coat and lightly knocked on the door next door.

Gu Cheng, who was sitting next door, seemed to be still discussing something with the others. Upon hearing the knock on the door, he shuddered and let her in.

Pushing open the door, it was unknown who helped her sit down on a nearby chair.

"Yan'Er, it's so late, why are you here?" Gu Cheng put down the things in his hands and shot a glance at the people in the room. Those people merely bowed and then left in a hurry.

"He's just here to understand the affairs of the country. I would like to ask Father why he has to pretend to be sick because of the crown prince." Gu Daiyan lifted his hand and touched the table beside him. There were actually no cups at all.

When they left just now, they didn't make even the slightest sound.

It should be one of Gu Cheng's subordinates.

"You have already married into the prince's mansion. Could it be that your father will still stand on the Crown Prince's side?" "On the other hand, you, why haven't I seen you so smart before? And why did you help Zixu do that …"

"Father." Gu Liuyan interrupted him and continued: "Don't say these words. I think this year's Spring Festival is a good opportunity."

"You still know of the Spring Festival?" Gu Cheng seemed to have walked to Gu Danyan's side.

"Of course. I once met a scholar named Meng Xu in the Good Forest Town. He is very learned and is very crafty in handling things. If you can recruit him, he will be a great help to you in the future." The corner of Gu Mingyan's mouth twitched, as he took the cup of warm water from his father and held it in his hands.

Gu Cheng looked at Gu Danyan doubtfully. When had his good-for-nothing daughter started meddling with the affairs of the country?

"Yan'Er, do you know how important this year's Spring Examination is? Many princes would try to rope in their powers. How much trouble can a mere scholar from a remote village cause in the imperial court?" Gu Cheng heaved a long sigh, "I was only misleading others when I pretended to be sick for the matter of the crown prince."

It seemed like Gu Cheng truly had some ability to get to the position of Prime Minister.

Originally, he had pretended that the Crown Prince's side had misled others, but he wasn't worried about the King Jing doubting him. This kind of courage was astonishing.

"Of course he can't stir up any trouble, but he is also not an object within the pond. In the future, if you become a virtuous general, I can definitely guarantee your safety." The corner of Gu Mingyan's mouth twitched. He only drank some of the warm water before he continued, "However, the princes are arguing, so Father shouldn't wade into this muddy water."

"What do you mean?" Gu Cheng didn't understand.

Gu Liuyan clearly wanted her to rope Meng Xu in, but she didn't want him to. In the end, she just didn't understand.

"You brought your two daughters to the prince's mansion, they can be considered as the great disciples of King Pan Jing. If you ask for Meng Xu to come here, others will definitely be wary of him. The best way is to secretly bring Yan'er here to help you tie the knot." Gu Danyan put down the cup and smiled.

"Your father has never seen Meng Xu before." Gu Cheng was still conflicted.

"After meeting you, you will know. If you do not mind, why not let me write a letter to meet you at that temple? If you like it, then tell your daughter to contact you in secret. " Gu Liuyan quickly said.

Gu Cheng's face darkened as he thought, In any case, this entire trip was a secret trip. If there really was someone capable, he would secretly rope them in. If he became someone else's disciple in the future, maybe he could even become my spy.

Thinking up to this point, Gu Cheng nodded in agreement.

"Since that is the case, I would like to ask Father to deliver this letter to the medical center of the Town of Good Forests." Gu Daiyan took out a letter from his sleeve. The words on the letter were written crookedly. It must have been written by Gu Daiyan himself when he couldn't read it clearly.

"You knew that I would agree." Gu Cheng frowned.

"After all, I am still your daughter. Even if you don't think that I should do this for you, I have helped father and sister today. I hope that father will treat me well in the future, okay?" Gu Danyan sighed and stood up, supporting himself on the wall as he walked out.

Gu Cheng remained silent the entire time. By the time Gu Daiyan had returned to his room, Qing Dai had already added another bed, but she had already disappeared without a trace. He was now rather considerate and considerate.

Lying in bed, Gu Daiyan even suspected that Gu Cheng was not his own father anymore.

Gu Cheng had clearly treated her well when she was young, but she had no memories of her mother. As she grew older, Gu Cheng had become increasingly unfond of her. If it hadn't been for Yun Qingyang taking care of her in the Gu Estate, Gu Mingyan probably wouldn't have been so domineering earlier.

After a good night's sleep, they set out on their journey the next day.

He had heard that it was a beautiful scenery along the way, but it was a pity that Gu Danyan's vision was blurry and he could not see anything clearly.

After travelling for six or seven days, they finally arrived at the temple here — the Three Purities Temple.

The Three Purities Temple was located halfway up the mountain, and took up a large part of the forest. In the forest, there was a waterfall for cultivation, and this so-called meditation room, after entering it, would pass through two buildings and three rooms, and once you step on the 100th step, you would arrive at the temple. There were two long roads to walk up the mountain, and if one was devout, one would have to kowtow three times and then nine times to walk up the mountain.

At the top of the mountain, there was a temple, but Gu Pingyan could not go up. He could only patiently walk for a hundred steps to reach the meditation room.

There were only tables and beds in the meditation room, plus bookshelves and cups and quilts. Nothing else.

"This place is really simple and crude." Qing Dai only put down her things. Before she entered the temple, she couldn't bring in anything smeared with oil. On the contrary, Gu Mingyan was pregnant, so she could eat vegetarian food. The monks in the temple prepared to eat more.

"What do you have to do these days?" Gu Liuyan sighed as if he was bored: "I'm afraid I'll be too bored."

Just now when I came up, I asked the little master about it. There are always nobles living in this temple, so I set up a medicine hall. Normally, if Miss is fine, I can take you there. Fairy smiled happily.

Gu Liuyan's eyes instantly lit up.

You couldn't dress up such things in the prince's estate, but now that you have left, it would be quite fun.
