"It seems like Miss hasn't guessed wrongly. Not only did Prince allow ghosts to come every three days to teach you, he also promised you that you would go out of the city to play, but only with some people to protect you." Qing Dai tidied her hair, but in the end she only tied it lightly with a cloth band.
Gu Danyan revealed a smile, and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes: "Looks like my crazy act was not bad."
"The prince said that you wanted to kill yourself, but he scared me." Fairy heaved a sigh of relief.
"If it wasn't for that, he wouldn't have believed me." Gu Dai Yan tried to comfort her, but she continued, "Only the weakness of women can make men like her feel tender towards them. I'm afraid Su Yu Wan couldn't sleep last night."
At this point, Qing Dai rolled her eyes.
He bent down and whispered into Gu Danyan's ear, "This morning, Second Miss took the plate and went to the palace. When we left the palace, she followed the lord back to the palace. For some reason, the prince was also called back to the palace."
Looks like Gu Zixian went to his father to complain.
However, no matter how smart Gu Cheng was, even if he liked Gu Zixian, he still had to fear Duke Jing a little.
Duan Chengxuan liked him, so his father wouldn't dare say he wasn't. So he could be at ease.
While he was daydreaming, the steward of the Wang Mansion had already respectfully brought in a jewelry box. He didn't dare to appear in front of Gu Danyan, afraid that Gu Danyan would still remember the steward's mocking words.
There were countless gold, silver, and jewelry in the jewel box, but this was the first time that Gu Tinyan, the princess, had enjoyed such a wonderful life.
"Sell off all of these jewelry and deposit them in the account for me. Let her keep them for me." Gu Mingyan took out a thin veil covering her face. She was still wearing a clean and clean set of clothes. Her hair was only tied up with a white cloth, leaving no trace behind.
"I'm afraid Miss will be scolded if she goes to see the old master in this outfit." She thought about it, then added a yellow coat.
Gu Daiyan shook her head helplessly. Since before, she had felt that Gu Cheng didn't have much feelings for her. She wasn't a true Gu Daiyan to begin with, so there was no need to purposefully curry favor with her.
She nodded and went to get the carriage.
When he arrived at the Prime Minister's Residence and saw the carriage leaving, Gu Danyan couldn't be bothered with it. He was only left with one thousand taels of silver with which to calculate the amount of money he had left.
Gu Cheng had not reprimanded her at all when he arrived at the Prime Minister's Estate. Instead, he had been served well.
"Yan'Er, even though you are favored now, you still remember not to be pampered. However, remember to help your sister a little. After all, she is still pregnant." As soon as they entered, the aunt spoke up with a smile.
"Aunt, don't say anything useless." Gu Liuyan shook her head helplessly: "Since I'm not in the Prince's Mansion, I can't help my sister at all. Besides, my sister doesn't seem to like my sister at all."
Madam Gu's expression changed, but she continued to persevere, "Look at what you've said, even the prince is speaking up for you. It shouldn't be difficult for you to speak up for Zixu."
Gu Liuyan's face was cold, but he didn't say a word.
An awkward expression appeared on Madam Gu's face. Luckily, Gu Cheng coughed a few times and changed the topic, "Yan'er, why have you come here today?"
"It's about Meng Xu." Gu Liuyan did not sit down. She continued without taking off her veil: "If father wants to make peace, daughter will go visit him right away. If father doesn't like her, daughter will think of a way to help him find a path, at least do his job, Sky Flame."
Gu Cheng's expression changed again and again. If nothing unexpected happened, then this Meng Xu would be the top scholar this time.
If he didn't rope her in, it would be too much of a pity. However, he didn't understand where this proud and arrogant daughter of his got her wisdom. "Do you remember when you fell into the lake, who saved you?"
Gu Mingyan raised an eyebrow, "It's an old story. What does father mean by this?"
"Yan'Er, your father raised you. Naturally, I know your temper and intelligence, but I never knew that you could be this smart." Gu Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, allowing the guards outside to look in one by one.
It was said that there was a technique to disguise one's appearance in the martial arts world, and his daughter had changed so much after marrying into the palace that it made people suspicious.
Having clearly seen all those small movements, the corners of Gu Poyan's mouth twitched as he looked at Gu Cheng, "Father, are you suspecting your daughter?"
Just what did this Gu Cheng think of his daughter?
She leisurely stood up, standing in front of Gu Cheng. She took off her veil and opened her mouth, "It was my wet nurse who rescued me from the lake and pushed me into the lake. It was my young sister, Gu Zixian."
Gu Cheng's gaze shrunk a little, "You're not Yan'er."
"I am." Gu Liuyan thought for a while, smiled and took a step back: "Father's suspicions today were also due to Gu Zixian's instigation."
Madam Gu's expression immediately changed. "There's a disguise technique in the martial arts world. You've changed so much. Could it be a spy from somewhere?"
"When I was seven years old, Aunt brought Ziqian and I up the mountain to pray for blessings. Aunt, you still wish for Gu Zixian to marry a good family in the future, to live a prosperous life without suffering. Am I right?" Gu Danyan looked at her and said, one by one.
She had inherited Gu Danyan's memories, so she naturally inherited her arrogant and despotic side.
The corner of Gu Pingyan's mouth twitched complacently. He once again looked at Gu Cheng and said, "If Father still doesn't believe me, I can say that when I was nine, Father went to Flower Willow Lane drunk. When he came out, he even told me not to go with Aunt …"
"Yan'Er!" Gu Cheng stood up with a pale face, "Those are all the memories of the past. Go and pull Meng Xu over to your side! Your sister has her good fortune! "
"Alright, Father."
Gu Danyan put on his veil and left. He didn't want to hear the arguments behind him, but his heart became cold.
Even if Gu Cheng didn't believe that he was her daughter, he shouldn't have let the guards hold the long sabre in their hands.
Her hands were sweating profusely, and even Qing Dai was trembling as she accompanied her to leave, not looking at the sabers that were hidden behind her back.
When they got back to the carriage, Gu Danyan sighed in relief, "Am I really different from before?"
"I just feel like Miss has been reborn from the shock." Qing Dai patted her chest, her eyes sparkling as she looked at her. "The Old Master and Madam have never known you before. They didn't even know that you are being so arrogant and despotic in order to scare off those chatty ladies."
Gu Liuyan thought about those memories and lightly laughed: "Of course, I'm Gu Liuyan."
They were one.
Both of them smiled at each other.
After leaving Sky Flame City, they arrived at Meng Xu's courtyard.
At this moment, the secluded courtyard was bustling with noise and laughter. Curious, Gu Daiyan pushed open the door.
