Wiping away the droplets of water on her face, Duan Chengrui who was beside her held up an umbrella for her and wrapped it around her with clean clothes.

Cloudlock was wrapped up and taken care of by the girls.

"I'm not that weak." Gu Danyan looked at Duan Chengrui's actions with slight embarrassment.

"Phantom told me to take good care of you, and you two are working for me after all." Duan Chengrui raised his hand and lightly touched her forehead. When he saw that her white clothes were already stained with mud, he only frowned and carried her to the car in front. "The show is already over. Leave the rest to me."

Gu Danyan nodded his head, while Yun Qi, who was being escorted into another carriage behind him, pulled open the carriage's curtain and said, "Even if this is a dream, Gu Cheng will still investigate Duke Jing. But, Your Highness, what exactly do you plan to do?"

Duan Chengrui only smiled in response, and didn't make it clear what he meant.

For the time being, Gu Liuyan could not figure it out. King Jing and Gu Cheng both had a weakness in their hands. It couldn't be that they would turn the tables on each other just because of this mysterious item.

But she also believed that Duan Chengrui would not lift a rock to smash his feet, so she could only silently wipe his hair.

After a while, when the ghosts had sent Gu Cheng back into the mountains, Duan Chengrui followed them into the carriage and entered the carriage with Gu Mingyan. When he heard Gu Pingyan sneeze, he took off his cloak and placed it on Gu Meiyan's shoulder.

"Gu Cheng should be wantonly searching for traces of Madam Yun these days. It's best if you stay in my estate for the time being and let Madam Yun hide for the time being." Duan Chengrui's voice always carried a trace of gentleness.

"You really should hide, but you still haven't told me why you did it. The moment I returned to Sky Flame, you called my mother over to give me a performance." Gu Danyan lowered his voice, thinking that he did not have enough trust in his mother.

However, this was the truth. Madam Yun had appeared for the sake of Gu Liuyan, but Duan Chengrui did not need to trust her because of Gu Liuyan.

As long as he looked at Gu Daiyan's serious eyes, Duan Chengrui would not be in the mood to hide it: "Gu Cheng is more patient than I thought."

"Looks like you want to borrow Gu Cheng's power to defeat Duan Chengxuan." Gu Daiyan understood. Although it was different from what he was thinking, they had the same idea.

With just a few words, Gu Danyan could understand what he meant. Just this point was enough to make him happy.

Since he knew the reason, Gu Danyan nodded his head and agreed. However, he still respected Duan Chenrui's opinion and temporarily did not tell Yun Diao about this matter, causing him to be displeased: "I'm your mother, if I wasn't watching, you wouldn't have a proper meal."

Gu Danyan felt guilty: "Of course not, of course mother is the closest one, but this matter has yet to come to an end."

Since it was his daughter who said this, Yun Tong naturally would not ask any further. He hurriedly left with his people, secretly investigating this matter was another story.

Gu Danyan once again returned to the second floor of the Third Prince's residence. These days, other than helping Duan Chenrui with a few ideas from time to time, she had nothing else to do. He was only thinking about whether he should find time to return during the Autumn Hunt and bring the Yun Family's children to play.

Duan Chengrui's prediction was also accurate.

In less than two days, Gu Sheng had already sent people to search around Sky Flame unrestrainedly, as if he was trying to find either Gu Danyan or Yun Qi's figure. However, Gu Pingyan's coffin was in the name of the King of Jing, and now that so much time had passed, it was sufficient for Duan Chenrui to do something about it.

However, Gu Cheng didn't find him. It was only after the summer had passed that Duan Chengxuan returned with the empress dowager. Just as they returned to Prince Jing's estate, they received news from Gu Cheng, "I hope to meet Your Highness."

"What's going on?" Duan Chengxuan looked at Gu Zixian, who was beside him.

However, Gu Zixian and Hua Li also didn't know what Gu Cheng was trying to do, so they could only shake their heads.

The next day, Gu Cheng paid a visit. This was the first time he had been here since the Golden Cicada had shed its shell. Gu Cheng was still brimming with energy, but his eyes were no longer as clear as they had been before.

After chatting for a short while, Gu Cheng suddenly opened his mouth, "I heard that Prince obtained a copy of the Yun family secret recipe from Yan'er?"

Duan Chengxuan's movements stopped, and the corners of his mouth raised. "There is indeed something, but I don't know what you mean."

"I don't know. Can you let me have a look?" Gu Cheng's eyes suddenly lit up.

Normally, people like Gu Cheng could hide their strength, but in front of hope, they did not have the slightest bit of patience.

As long as he obtained the recipe to live forever, he would one day accomplish something even greater than what he currently had, to the point where he didn't even have to care about Navy Tide.

"Why?"

"As long as Your Highness gives me this recipe, I'll definitely make Gu Sheng serve you well in the future, and I won't make Princess Ling'er …"

Before he finished speaking, Duan Chengxuan's words were cut off by an eye knife.

Cheng Shan quickly took the prescription. In reality, as long as there was no phoenix gallbladder and Jade Dragon Snow, they would naturally not be stingy.

When Gu Cheng opened the prescription and saw the phoenix gallbladder and Jade Dragon Snow, he frowned.

"Send someone to follow him." He'll tell Gu Sheng that after he kills Gu Cheng, I'll give him full trust. Once he ascends to the throne in the future, he'll still be the prime minister, and his siblings will all have a good home as well. "

A black shadow quickly followed him.

Su Yuwan, on the other hand, was carrying something with a pale face as she walked in, her hands trembling uncontrollably. "Big Brother Xuan, about Ling'er, you …"

"I've already lost Ling'er, I can't lose you again." Duan Chengxuan looked coldly at Su Yu Wan, but the warmth in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

Tears immediately filled Su Yuwan's eyes. She still wanted to move to Duan Chengxuan's side, but Duan Chengxuan stared at her. "Previously, when Gu Cheng threatened me with this, I didn't even know that you made Ling'er become the scapegoat in order to shake off your pursuers."

Su Yu Wan stopped again, "I... There's nothing I can do about it … "It was only because I was in a rush that I …"

"You should go and repent for Ling'er. In the next few days, let Zi Xing serve you." The trace of warmth within Duan Chengxuan's eyes vanished in an instant.

Su Yuwan felt wronged, but she still knew what her mistake was.

Duan Ling Tian was the Imperial Family's Princess and one of the few remaining close relatives of Duan Cheng Xuan. Moreover, a few days ago, he found out that Duan Ling Tian was pushed out by her to block the saber, so it was normal for him to be dissatisfied in her heart.

She was even happy about it. Brother Xuan was afraid that she would leave, so even if she knew the truth, she would help to conceal it.

After Su Yu Wan left, Duan Chengxuan painfully rubbed his forehead.

If Gu Liuyan was still around, he would no longer have any good impression of Su Yuwan. He still remembered the news that Cheng Shan had brought a few days ago, his face ashen.
