Her silky and soft hair hung down to her shoulders. Her face was still as indifferent as before. However, her peach blossom eyes never needed any embellishment. Just a slight raise of her eyes gave her a very amorous look.
Su Yu Wan clumsily combed her long hair. At this moment, the only thing that remained of her uneasiness and anger was deep jealousy. She added a little strength to her wooden brush: "If I had a face as beautiful as yours, I would also have two beauties accompanying me."
"It's just a pair of confidants." Gu Danyan did not care about the slight pain, and only smiled: "If you really want to compare appearances, then those plain looking ladies can be thousands of times more haggard and beautiful like me, not to mention that even though you were born in the countryside, didn't you also inherit your mother's beauty?"
With that said, Gu Mingyan turned her head to take a glance.
Only this look could truly be called a grand show of grace.
It was a pity that she could only use it on men to make Su Yu Wan, who was a woman, feel increasingly jealous and angry.
"You really are a fox."
"You can only say these kind of words. Rather than mocking me here, why don't you think about whether or not your life can be tenaciously lived to the end?" Gu Danyan raised his hand to cover his neck. Although the other parts of his body no longer hurt, they were replaced by the occasional stinging sensation from his neck, as if he had been stung by a bug.
Su Yu Wan remained silent. In the end, she just asked the maid outside to help her dress up.
When they arrived at the hall, Duan Chengrui had long since ordered someone to prepare a table of delicious food, and Gu Danyan directly sat down without concealing it. When she saw the girls eagerly looking at them from the side, she only said in a low voice, "If what you said earlier is true, then I won't interfere in Duan Chengxuan's matters anymore."
"Naturally." Duan Chengrui lightly said, then he picked up a lot of food for Gu Pingyan and said, "But what's the secret of this mystery of longevity?"
"It's just a matter of longevity, or borrowing a marriage to prolong one's life. Although it's nonsense, there are many rumors in the annals that this person drinks yellow spring water and treats the water as though it's water from the underworld, and the Underworld is encased in the ice of the Sky Mountain. At the same time, the more you know in this lifetime, your soul and spirit begin to become incomplete, until it completely dissipates, and if you use other souls to reform, you might be able to live forever." Gu Mingyan continued speaking as she ate, "Not only that, the matter regarding my Yun clan is rather strange, I have yet to investigate it."
"In that case, I will send people to build a shrine." Duan Chengrui nodded, with a clear appearance.
At this moment, Gu Liuyan finally raised her head and glanced at him. She then lifted her hand to touch the corner of her eyes and curiously asked, "We were just partners back then. Yue Qing and Feng Yue were both beautiful. Why did you pick me?"
At the beginning, I was only curious about the ability of a woman who was infatuated with the position of Crown Prince Jing, but after that, I liked your arrogant appearance. At the beginning, I was only curious about the ability of a woman who was infatuated with the status of Crown Prince Jing, and after that, I liked your arrogant appearance. Duan Chengrui continued to feed her, hoping that she would eat more meat to nourish her body.
Gu Danyan had always scoffed at them, but he was obedient at this moment: "You're all my nephews, so of course I'm not afraid."
He was speechless for a moment, and Duan Chengrui was slightly dazed as well.
Gu Danyan really didn't think too much about it at the time. He just thought that since he was the nephew of a junior, he should take care of him regardless of his size.
Duan Chengrui put down his bowl and chopsticks and let out a heavy sigh. "I was overthinking it at that time."
These words were said with embarrassment. If she had known that this would backfire, she would not have provoked Duan Chengrui that day.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Gu Daiyan leaned on the table and sighed heavily: "It's been a few months, I wonder how Yi Gang is now?"
Seeing the faint loneliness in Gu Daiyan's eyes, Duan Chengrui felt a great shock from the bottom of his heart.
In his eyes, Gu Danyan was always so adept at stepping on the edge of the blade, with little nostalgia towards the world and far from the mundane world. However, at this moment, Gu Danyan's fingertip was only swiping across the table, and he wrote a few words with water and raised the corner of his mouth: "Since you like me under the eaves with you, then wouldn't you be like this today?"
Her eyes reddened, but Gu Mingyan only glanced at her with a smile in her clear eyes, "What's there to be jealous of? Since Duan Chengxuan is not by my side, I'll naturally use your highness' hands to pass the message to him. If he and Gu Sheng want to take the throne from the Void Stage Elder, then he should be asking for his help, not just attacking and defending."
"You already have the mystery of longevity in your mind, so I'll take care of it myself." Seeing her haggard appearance, Duan Chengrui immediately refused.
I only did this because I was worried that they would not listen to your words. As the princess of Er Dan city, I didn't care about the fire at that time and I just watched helplessly as the mountain burned down the vast expanse of the green forest. Now that Er Dan has advanced, it would be better for me to go with Lai Xuan and take the city down without even a single soldier. Gu Liuyan slowly stood up, the silver rings on his wrist lightly knocked against each other: "Moreover, this way, you will be able to bring back the Sky Flame. I don't believe that those ministers have anything to say."
"Do you want to help Duan Cheng Xuan, or are you trying to help Er Dan?" Yue Qing pulled away the porcelain and said, "Don't think that the people of these three countries all believe in you. If it weren't for your current identity …"
"But I have such an identity, such trustworthiness." The corners of his eyes curled as he looked at Duan Chenrui. "Believe me, Duan Chengxuan, Lai Xuan, and as the Emperor of the Supreme Dan, naturally, my father believes in me as well, but in this mess, I'm only dealing with a few aspects. The one who really needs to do something is you."
He could choose to sit on the sidelines and watch the battle. However, he, Navy Tide, could protect himself without being harmed in the slightest.
However, if he wanted to get involved, he would have to lose most of his men and become the Crown Prince.
"Duan Chengxuan is currently guarding the border. Even if I want to interfere in this matter, it would be difficult." Duan Chengrui frowned.
"I've already said it before, leave this matter to me. When I return to the Fallen Water Barrier, I want Duan Chengxuan to be sent to Sky Flame City for interrogation. I also want you to bring Qing Ze safely to Lord Meng Xu's residence for him to take care of." Gu Liuyan smiled as he bowed to Duan Chengrui. "I serve Duan Chengxuan, and I'm also willing to serve His Highness the Third Prince. So long as you trust me from the start to the end."
She would become Duan Chengrui's lobbyist.
