"Do they usually bicker like this?"
Gu Danyan had already changed his clothes. It was rare that he didn't need to wear heavy clothes, only a long, watery green gown. His hair didn't need to be tied up high, and he could only be tied behind his head with a cloth belt.
She was carrying a variety of pastries in her arms. Qu Hao silently wiped the long knife in his hand and said in a low voice, "You should hide here. If uncle finds you later, you will have Aunt Yun backing you up, and I will be scolded."
"You are the crown prince, how can you be scolded?" Gu Danyan was amused by him.
Qu Hao felt a headache coming on. "Of course I will. How could I have such an elder sister like you …"
"Anyone who sees me would say so." Gu Liuyan only lightly smiled. He had heard quite a few words from Qi Lin and Duan Chengyu, and now he was somewhat nostalgic.
"Let's not talk about this, since you're awake, it's time for you to go to the other courtyard and see Duan Chengxuan." Qu Hao suddenly opened his mouth and said, "The war is imminent, but my uncle didn't care about the injury. He had been lying in bed for two days, and even though he hadn't recovered, he started writing. Even after several cuts, he still hadn't recovered."
"Then he injured His Majesty?" Gu Daiyan asked.
"Now, I feel somewhat sorry for that King Jing." Qu Hao sighed again, "You can see that my uncle is not feeling well at all. He only comes to Aunt Yun to complain to her. He is rejected two or three times a day before he goes to bed smiling. It's amazing how well he is."
Gu Danyan was embarrassed by this and wanted to say a few more words.
When he saw Qu Li quickly walking over with Yun Dian, Qu Hao turned his head and was about to remind him when he saw a wooden bucket swaying gently against the wall.
"You sure run fast!" Qu Hao's eyes were wide open, he had no choice but to pretend that nothing had happened. When Yun Qi asked, he said in a low voice, "She went to see the King. She just went over the wall."
"This Yan'Er …"
"Do you think that your daughter is as heartless as you? If you didn't hurt her and treat her viciously, she wouldn't have avoided my mother." Yun Wan continued to glare at him.
Qu Li remained silent as he nodded his head. He didn't dare to disobey. He covered his eyes, unwilling to admit that Qu Hao was his fiendish uncle.
Gu Danyan, on the other hand, was very familiar with the route to the yard. When he came in, Chengshan did not stop him.
In this city, he naturally didn't dare be known by anyone and would only send people to surround and guard him. Duan Chengxuan didn't dare to delay either, as his figure was fickle, and his face was only a bit pale.
He raised his head as soon as he stepped through the doorway.
"When you return, you are not allowed to leave. Otherwise, if I imprison you again, you will only see me in the dark."
Duan Chengxuan put down the book in his hands and threatened with a cold voice, his eyes filled with rage.
"Even mother never threatens me, how dare you, who owes me so much, threaten me." Gu Danyan walked in step by step and sat by his side. Her arms touched and she said gently, "If you imprison me again, I will no longer have any love for you in the future."
"Losing love is still better than losing your life." Duan Chengxuan turned to look at her. "Don't think that I'll really be eaten alive."
"Don't be so haughty. Don't forget that you said you will obey me no matter what."
"Naturally, this is your prerequisite for not harming yourself." Duan Chengxuan grabbed her hand. Seeing that she wasn't even dressed, he only raised his hand to help her tidy up before turning his head. "I still have some documents to read, go accompany my parents."
Duan Chengxuan took the wrong medicine?
The two maidservants at the door hurriedly turned their heads back, but they did not dare look. Duan Chengxuan was slightly stunned, but Gu Danyan had already roughly peeled off his shirt, and with a glance, he could see layers upon layers of thin clothes within, causing him to have blood seeping out from two places.
"You're amazing. You're heavily injured, yet you still dare to correct this document?"
Gu Danyan intentionally gave the wound a light pat, causing Duan Chengxuan to immediately grit his teeth and look at him in pain.
"Don't you know it hurts?" Gu Danyan sneered and leisurely stood up: "Since this was injured by my biological father, I'll consider it as you returning it to me."
Seeing that this person was about to leave, Duan Chengxuan hurriedly pulled him back. "Back then, when you were recuperating in the prince's mansion, was it also this painful day and night?"
"That's not the case." Gu Danyan turned around and said in a low voice: "This is just a flesh injury, it can't hurt your internal organs and bones. But when it comes to rainy winter, my heart will ache even more and the meridians above my collarbone will be damaged."
"Your every move back then was engraved in my remaining years."
Although Gu Danyan's words were calm, Duan Chengxuan didn't feel that these superficial wounds were unbearable.
"That is what I deserve." Duan Chengxuan didn't let go and only pulled his to his side with all his might and pulled his into his embrace. He looked carefully at the dark green in her eyes and said, "This Night Dream Nightmare is a gift from me as well, right?"
"If you know, you should apologize first." Gu Daiyan didn't resist and just looked at him stubbornly.
"I'm sorry."
Her voice was soft, but it was filled with guilt. Even her injured arm was tightened.
On the contrary, it caused Gu Danyan to feel uncomfortable. He lightly pressed his shoulder that was not hurt: "I don't like to see people with wounds open. I'll get someone to change the medicine for you."
"Why didn't you come yourself?" Duan Chengxuan continued to hold his opponent in his arms as he raised up his hand to pick up the document. "Moreover, I have so many documents, so I can't spare any time."
"I have a headache. Do you think I don't care if you live or die?" Gu Danyan rolled his eyes.
"You should remember our one month agreement. In a few more days, it will be one month. Are you done?" Duan Chengxuan asked her while reading the document, but he didn't care if she sat beside him, as he would be able to clearly see the contents of the document.
Gu Liuyan didn't want to bother with this person's childish actions of showing his loyalty.
"It wasn't resolved, but I promised Jiang Yan a thousand war horses that the land of Navy Tide would be fertile …"
"It's not impossible for me to help you, but I can't help but agree." As he spoke up to here, Duan Chengxuan only raised his head and looked at the person that entered. He hurriedly straightened his clothes and stood up. "Uncle."
Qu Li didn't care that Duan Chengxuan called him uncle. However, when he saw that Duan Chengxuan's clothes were disheveled, Gu Daiyan's clothes were still intact, and the two of them were so close to each other. If it wasn't for Yun San beside him, he would have scolded Gu Danyan.
Seeing this, Yun Qi also felt a headache, but Qu Li had already injured someone. The other party had concealed the matter from the Duke of Jing, which could be considered a small punishment. As soon as she entered the door, she heard Gu Pingyan talk about a thousand war horses and also helplessly said: "How could you agree?"
"It's only for Lai Xuan's sake. She might be able to use these thousand war horses to turn the tide, and make these thousand war horses become the blade of the battle." Gu Danyan also quickly stood up and glanced at Qu Li: "I'm betting on these thousand horses. If we win, those slaves can be used by us, but if we lose, that's only the crime of Princess Er Dan. Everyone knows that Su Yuwan is the current Princess Er Dan."
"Not only must you treat her as your enemy, you must also use her as your scapegoat." Duan Cheng Xuan finally understood her chain of actions.
