After leaving the palace, the Scarlet Scorpion behind him was already drenched in cold sweat.

Zhu Yan was very cautious as well, but he didn't expect that Gu Danyan wouldn't panic even when facing the Emperor. He was even very calm now.

"The two of you should leave early and seek refuge with Yin Gou. Sky Flame cannot stay any longer, lest Su Yuwan becomes a demon."

Gu Danyan said to them softly, while the eunuch beside them gave them directions with a clear understanding.

Before he left, Zhu Yan stopped walking and looked at her. "You just said that we are your clansmen?"

"Our Yun Family and your Zhu Family were originally one, but now we don't need to thank each other for supporting each other. In the future, if you encounter any difficulties, just come and find us." Gu Danyan smiled helplessly: "Being left out here would be better than living out of the hands of your clansmen."

"Thank you very much." Zhu Yan cupped his fists and bowed deeply towards Gu Tinyan.

The latter casually waved her hand, restrained her smile and followed the palace maids to the palace's dining area.

However, he was curious in his heart, what would Su Yu Wan and Duan Cheng Xuan think if they saw him appear at the family banquet?

The feast was held on the high platform near the imperial garden. Although it was winter, it was still good to eat some hot pot to warm your body, not to mention the various chrysanthemums and flowers that filled the garden. It was a rare and elegant place, but also had a taste of home.

Gu Liuyan had come early to meet the Emperor, but now that she wasn't going to stroll around, she had to take a seat in the side hall. Senior Servant Gui had even personally come to deliver a bowl of pigeon soup and said, "The empress dowager has always been thinking of you.

"Help me thank the empress dowager. In addition, when I faked my death that day and made her sad, she definitely had to apologize for me." Gu Daiyan also held the pigeon soup and quickly said.

The two of them exchanged a few words of advice, and Gu Daiyan sighed in his heart.

She hadn't seen her grandfather on her way here, but now that she knew the empress dowager was in good shape, she felt at ease. However, she couldn't see much of him in the future.

Gu Danyan was anxious, but he did not raise his head. He only rubbed his aching knee and raised his hand: "I still have more than an hour before you choose a book for me."

"Yes." The palace maids by her side quickly left.

However, Gu Danyan didn't know that his actions had already been seen clearly by the three people who had walked in. Gu Zixian and Su Yuwan could recognize him just by looking at him from the thin veil, not to mention Duan Chengxuan.

It was a family banquet in Japan today, so why was she here? Gu Zi Wu and Su Yu Wan could not help but think at the same time.

The few of them sat down together, keeping to the flow of the water. When a book arrived, Gu Daiyan saw that it was for a child to read, but the palace maid had a blank look on her face. It seemed like she couldn't read, so she could only open it.

There were quite a number of people from the imperial family, but soon, there were many people sitting in the side chamber. Most of them were talking softly, and they did not know much about Gu Pingyan. They were just curious about him.

As for the latter, she was lazily leaning against a chair, the two or three silver bracelets made crisp sounds as she flipped through the book.

The familiar look in her eyes even caused the royal family to be slightly stunned. However, after she glanced around, she could only slowly stand up and pass the book to the palace maid beside her. She smiled gently: "This book is very interesting. Thank you very much."

Hearing this, one of the madams nearby sneered, "It's just a children's book, where is the interest coming from?"

Gu Danyan looked towards the source of the voice, but was not angry. Instead, she rubbed the palace maid's head and said, "The children's booklet is also very interesting. I'm afraid that even if this book is not good, you would still look like an adult.

For a moment, the entire side palace was completely silent. Madam Ye's face darkened, he could be considered the wife of a prince, but how could he be so insulted? The eunuch next to the emperor quickly came over and greeted, "Your Highness, why are you here with everyone? The emperor has ordered for you to rest in the side palace."

As he was about to reprimand the palace maids and eunuchs by his side, Gu Pingyan raised his hand to stop them, "It's useless to teach them a lesson, but I don't know the way. I just want to sit in this bustling place and have a look at this Navy Tide Aristocrat."

These words sounded awkward, and the eunuch was embarrassed as well. He quickly walked up to the people on the stage.

In the end, the few of them couldn't sit still and they all tried to guess who this Your Highness was. On the other side, Duan Chengxuan had long since stood up and followed them, leaving his two wangfei alone at the side.

He quickly walked to Gu Danyan's side, pushing back the eunuch and palace maid beside him, and said in a low voice: "This princess' appearance is indeed suitable for you."

"Rather than me, it's my nature." Gu Liuyan raised her chin, her slender fingertips touched the veil covering her face: "Your highness, you are of noble status, but now you're not accompanying the wangfei to her place. You're not afraid of losing face by accompanying a foreign princess like me."

"This King isn't afraid of anything."

"Su Yuwan killed your master and mistress. There's a change in the family banquet today. Prince, please be careful." Gu Danyan, on the other hand, couldn't bear to see how intimate Duan Ling Tian was with his, so he could only speak coldly. He didn't even look at Duan Chengxuan, whose expression had long since changed.

She sat on the first seat on the right side of the emperor, which was sufficient to show his identity. Originally, there were people who thought that this person was similar to Crown Princess Jing, but now, it would seem that Gu Danyan's attire was different from Navy Tide's. Although her hair was tied up high, she was mostly adorned with silver ornaments.

Duan Chengxuan's face was gloomy and he only allowed his subordinates to move away. Even though Su Yu Wan usually acted like a spoiled child, she now sat in the position of the Royal Consort and didn't dare to act coquettishly in the end.

The emperor only introduced them after the family banquet started, and before any of them could react, Gu Danyan's next words had arrived: "Today, I came to the family banquet because my foster sister is in Navy Tide, so I came here specifically under the orders of my father for some other matters as well."

"Sister? You mean the real Princess Erdan is with me, Navy Tide? "

As one of them spoke out, the others unconsciously looked towards Duan Chengxuan.

This Princess Erdan was somewhat similar to Crown Princess Jing, not to mention that she had not been able to conceal her past from the emperor. The imperial relatives were all more or less aware of her.

"In that case, is His Highness' adopted sister still a relative of the royal family present?" Gu Zixian sneered.

"My foster sister is royal father's biological daughter, so she can't be careless. However, after knowing that she took the position of wangfei in Navy Tide, I felt a lot of unhappiness in my heart." Gu Danyan slowly put down the cup in her hand and looked at Su Yu Wan.

There was only one Princess, Su Yu Wan.
