Even if Gu Daiyan was extremely unwilling, if Duan Chengxuan insisted on following her, there was nothing she could do.

For the time being, Yue Qing and Su Yuwan were placed at Hong Xiao's side. Gu Pingyan only brought Mu Qing along, as well as the four bodyguards that Duan Chengxuan had insisted on sending, while the last person was the disguised Duan Chengxuan. In order to not be discovered, there weren't many scars on his face, but his eyes were ice-cold and his body was tall, causing people to feel a chill down their spines just by looking at him.

Even the way he spoke made him want to pinch his throat and walk like a woman. When he saw Gu Liuyan, he smiled widely, but then he looked at the four men behind her and his face immediately fell: "Your Highness, why do you need so many people to protect you? Look at all these tall and powerful men with cold eyes."

As he said this, he didn't forget to take a few more glances.

Mu Qing was trapped everywhere, and he was already impatient. Seeing that Gu Liuyan was still as unmoving as a mountain, he coldly said: "Can you bring him along? How long are you going to waste just to say such words?!"

That eunuch raised his eyebrows and wished that he could pierce a hole through Mu Qing.

"What is it? I still want to bring a few more people but you all are unwilling. He truly thinks that I am willing to interfere in this Navy Tide matter. " Gu Pingyan sneered and cast a sidelong glance at the eunuch: "What's more, the ninth prince even sent a eunuch to pick up this princess. It's really funny."

"Your Highness, although I am a eunuch, I have done my duty very well. Please forgive me for this offense." Upon hearing Gu Liuyan's words, the eunuch's face immediately changed. His face was full of fear and respect, afraid that he would offend Gu Daiyan.

Gu Liuyan had thought that this person was brought here by Duan Chengrui. Otherwise, why would he be so respectful to him?

"Fine, since the ninth prince can't show any sincerity, this princess will wait here for a few days. When can the ninth prince show any sincerity, then come back and talk to me again." With that, she lazily sat down on a wooden chair to the side, half-supporting her face as she looked at him: "Send another message to the Ninth Prince."

The sweat on the eunuch's forehead dripped down like rain. He quickly wiped away the sweat on his forehead and knew Gu Daiyan's temperament, so he didn't dare to say anything. He bowed and greeted, "Your Highness, please speak."

"Tell him to be careful." As Gu Liuyan said this, she lowered her head. Her fingertips brushed against the fur of the cloak on her shoulders. Her peach blossom eyes were charming, but they only sent chills down one's spine.

"What do you mean by that, Your Highness?" The eunuch broke out in a cold sweat. It was unknown where he had offended this prince, but he had angered this person, who usually did not put on airs, into such a grand stance.

"Naturally, he knows what I mean." Gu Liuyan only smiled lightly at this. After standing up, he brushed past the eunuch and placed a hand on his shoulder: "I'm not used to riding the Black Wind that the Ninth Prince sent. Remember to ask him to prepare a new one for me."

The expression on that eunuch's face changed again and again, and before he could say anything, Gu Danyan had already led the five of them away, leaving no face for them.

These words were unclear, but the meaning behind them was even more vague.

After leaving this place and heading to the other tents, Gu Danyan asked Mu Qing: "Since you've chosen to join the Third Prince, do you know this person?"

I do know that this eunuch's surname is Wu, and he should have come to the palace to serve after cleaning himself, but at that time, his name was missing from the palace's register, and perhaps he was found in place of someone else, which was why he was chased out of the palace. Mu Qing looked at Gu Danyan as he spoke: "Are you going to ignore the matter of immortality?"

"Of course, you have to wait until the temple is built. You can go and accompany your little sister Wan-Er. I see she has lost a lot of weight recently. If that happens, it will affect your immortality." Gu Danyan slowed down his footsteps and yawned lazily. He didn't forget to pat his cheeks to keep himself warm.

A dim light flashed through Mu Qing's eyes. He opened his mouth, but didn't refute her. He only quickly left.

After he left, Gu Danyan finally cast a cold glance at him. She slowed down her steps and walked to Duan Chengxuan's side as she said in a low voice, "What do you think about this Mu Qing and that eunuch?"

"No one can be trusted." Duan Chengxuan's voice didn't change. Instead, he used the wide robe to place Gu Danyan's cold little hand into his palm and gently kneaded it.

"That's reasonable. Since Mu Qing said that this person wouldn't be used, then he still remembered this person's surname. In the end, he even added an extremely annoying excuse." If this eunuch is truly Duan Chengrui's man, the first thing he will do is to show his loyalty to me. " Halfway through Gu Ming Yan's words, he noticed that Duan Cheng Xuan was staring at him with a fixed gaze, and was slightly stunned.

The next moment, his chin was gently held up by someone as he spoke with some dissatisfaction, "What is it? What are those people paying their respects to you when you're by Duan Chengrui's side? "Is the Matriarch's present or …"

"Of course it's the matriarch's gift. Don't you see what intentions he has towards me? Even if she won't force me, in his heart, I'm already a piece of cake, okay?" The corners of Gu Liuyan's eyes curved, but her lips, dried by the wind, became softer because of her smile.

"Are you intentionally trying to anger me?" Duan Chengxuan raised his eyebrows and pulled the person into his embrace. The three people beside him all knew their place and looked away, paying no attention to him.

"Seven percent anger is very interesting. The other three points is to tell the truth, afraid that you will eat and do something bad in the future." Gu Liuyan pulled his hand away with a smile, then leaned over to place a kiss on his lips. Seeing the stunned expression on Duan Chengxuan's face for a moment, she simply placed her hands on his shoulders and said, "Eat first and put it to the side. I've thought of a pretty good idea for the past two days."

"What method?" Duan Chengxuan expressionlessly wrapped his arms around his waist, following which he brought his men to a tent at the side.

"We might as well leave the matters at the border to Duan Chengrui, and return to Sky Flame to restrict our movements." Gu Danyan quickly held the person in front of him tightly and carefully sized up the tent, afraid that someone would be around.

Duan Chengxuan placed her on the chair, then placed both his hands on her ice-cold face and looked at her. "You wish for me to go back and be controlled by others, while pretending to have lost all of my power, whereas Duan Chengrui did a great job. In this way, unless that person stands by my side and asks me to overthrow Duan Chengrui, or to incite Yu'er and the Sixth Prince to become enemies with him …"

"Once he does that, he'll slip up." Gu Liuyan nodded seriously.

"You believe Duan Chengrui so much?"

"Because he did not kill his father for the throne. Even if he had sowed discord between them, he had never harmed King Zong Ping and the Sixth Prince. Regardless of whether he was secretly pushing it or not, I only know that he does not harm his relatives. " Gu Danyan leaned into Duan Cheng Xuan's embrace with a smile. "You still don't believe me?"

Looking at the person in his embrace, Duan Chengxuan believed that she would absolutely not reveal such an expression to others.

However, he still couldn't stop himself from eating.
