The next morning, the sky was bright.

Gu Danyan had already brought Meng Xu and Hong Ling up the mountain and into the hall.

Gu Cheng and Madam Gu's faces lit up with joy. They could only look at Gu Zi, who might already be pregnant, with warmth and worry, filling the table with dishes.

"Father, Aunt, Yan'Er has brought him here." Gu Daiyan held onto the edge of the table and sat down, raising her hand to let Meng Xu sit with her. Qing Dai, on the other hand, had already pulled the little girl out of the hall to prevent her from getting agitated.

Unfortunately, Gu Cheng didn't pay much attention to his words.

Since he had already gotten used to it, Gu Danyan could only eat by himself.

Meng Xu saw all of this and could not help but look at Gu Danyan. Compared to the Prime Minister's family, the only one with loose and simple clothes was Gu Laiyan, and this hair was held up by the little girl.

When he looked at the three people in luxurious clothing, he couldn't help but smile. He actually thought that they were from two different families.

Being stared at by Meng Xu in such a manner, Gu Daiyan felt a little uncomfortable. He raised his hand and rubbed his cheek: "Are you staring at me? I can't see your eyes. "

"My apologies." Meng Xu coughed and quickly began to eat.

After Gu Daiyan finished eating, the other three people continued to chat among themselves. Madam Gu was smiling so much that she couldn't even close her mouth.

As he watched on in a daze, a wave of bitterness surged through his heart. When he was pregnant, Gu Cheng hadn't said a single word. After a while, she shook his head helplessly.

What was there to think about? The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable it became.

"Zhi Wu, follow your mother back and have a good rest." Only now did Gu Cheng see Meng Xu, waving goodbye to him.

"Now that you are pregnant, you must take good care of it. When you return to the manor in the future, you must not be careless, do you understand?" Madam Gu carefully supported Gu Zixian and left.

Presently, only the three of them remained within the enormous hall.

Gu Liuyan lazily brought out some pastries, half-supporting her cheeks as she looked at Gu Cheng: "Father told me to bring him here, yet he's so disrespectful. He's actually not the least bit sincere."

"What is Yan'Er saying?" Gu Cheng lightly coughed, "Now that your sister is pregnant with the son of the prince, shouldn't she be happy?"

Gu Liuyan raised an eyebrow. It seemed like Gu Cheng still did not know about the unscrupulous things that Gu Zixian and his concubine had done in private.

"You should be happy, but you shouldn't mistreat this talent. All of you have a good chat, I'll go out and take a breather." As he spoke, Gu Danyan stood up and walked out.

Only the two of them remained.

After they left the hall, the cold wind blew. Qing Dai took out her cloak and whispered, "Miss, it will be Tian Yan's turn in two days."

"Yes, I'm going back to that cage again. I don't know if it's joy or sadness." He heaved a long sigh.

The winter was approaching. Although the Heaven Flame was famous for its fire, the memories of the Heaven Flame, Dong Ri, were still covered in snow and looked like silver. If a poor family didn't have charcoal fire, they could freeze to death in their house.

"Qingdai, these few days, I've been waiting for you. I haven't seen anyone."

Gu Dai Yan pinched her fingertips, then walked straight to the meditation room. Although she could not see through her personality, she still did as she was told.

Four hours later, Meng Xu and the little girl wanted to see Gu Danyan, but they were stopped at the door.

Qing Dai said helplessly, "The Miss said that she won't meet anyone. I believe that everything she said to Young Master Meng is already complete."

Meng Xu couldn't figure out what Gu Meiyan wanted to do, so he could only leave.

Two days later, the Prime Minister's men returned home.

Gu Liu Yan ordered a carriage for herself and sent ghosts to protect Gu Zixian while she sat with Meng Xu and Hong Ling. Qing Dai served by her side as she spoke, "For the past few days, Madam and Second Miss seem to be plotting something."

"Probably thinking about how to kill the fetus in my womb." Gu Liuyan raised the corner of his mouth as he held the water bag: "Gu Zixian is a fool, that mother of hers is not stupid."

"Aren't you family? How can you do such a thing? " The little red girl widened her eyes.

In the Meng Residence, the only two brothers were on good terms with each other. Even though they were on opposite sides of the world, their brotherhood did not decrease.

Meng Xu remembered the scene at the table. He only held onto the little girl and lightly shook his head.

They didn't look like a family.

"I'm afraid that my biological mother angered my father, and in addition, when I was young, I was arrogant and domineering, which now makes things troublesome for me, so my father doesn't like me at all, not to mention that King Jing has a bright future. If one day I can ascend to the throne, then the person who gave birth to my legitimate son …" Gu Danyan didn't continue, but everyone already knew.

"Let's not talk about this. However, I still have a few things I want to say to Young Master Meng." Gu Danyan looked at him and took out another letter from his pocket. "If you are lucky enough to see the Third Prince in person in the future, help me pass this letter to him. This will help you in your advancement in the future."

"Third Prince?" Meng Xu was even more confused.

Before arriving at this place, he had already made inquiries. The person Duan Chengxuan valued the most was the current Fourth Prince.

"That's right. Although he did not stand out, he cannot be underestimated. If you think he can do that, he can become quite a good backer." Gu Danyan nodded seriously and then looked at the little girl next to Meng Xu. She only smiled and said, "But this little girl is smart enough to play with Yin Gou. Do you want to get to know her next time?"

Hong Lingtong nodded her head, but she was curious as to who this Yin Gou was.

Meng Xu understood that Gu Danyan was trying to get the red girl to contact this Yin Gou.

Knowing this, Meng Xu felt that Gu Mingyan was not a person from the outside world. She could not help but feel a little strange. "I originally thought you were just being careful, but now it seems like you aren't."

"There's no other way." Gu Liuyan laughed helplessly.

His journey home was much faster than when he first arrived.

Gu Danyan and Gu Zixian directly returned to King Jing's Estate. As soon as they arrived, Cheng Er had already arrived at Gu Daiyan's side: "Princess, the Prince invites you to his study."

Lowering his eyes, Gu Daiyan's mouth became calm. In the end, he helplessly raised his head, revealing a faint smile. His fingers subconsciously gripped the clothes on his lower abdomen: "Why?"

Cheng Zhizhan lowered his head and didn't say anything, while Gu Daiyan's heart was really cold.

"Qingdai, you should go get Hongmei and Yingou together." Gu Daiyan loosened his grip on her wrist and followed Cheng 22% of the way in.

Within the study room, Duan Chengxuan was currently rewriting documents on the main seat.

Gu Liuyan sat down on the side, but the door to the study was gently closed, and the windows were locked.

"What is the Prince trying to do?" Gu Danyan's face darkened.
