If he hadn't encountered such a sudden turn of events, he would never have found such a good opportunity to approach Gu Qingyi.

In the beginning, he did not take Gu Yinian, who had disappeared for more than ten years and had suddenly found a daughter, seriously. In the beginning, he did not take Gu Yinian, who had suddenly found a daughter, seriously. After all, as a man, who would be willing to go to a princess? From then on, there wouldn't even be a mistress in the house. Back then, when Gu Yinian's concubine had given birth, other people probably didn't know what had happened. However, because he had paid extra attention to Gu Yinian, he naturally didn't miss out on this. Allegedly, Princess Anping had gotten angry that year. Gu Yinian had knelt outside the Phoenix Artefact Academy for several days and several nights, but he still hadn't been able to obtain her forgiveness.

Regarding this, Xuanyuan Jing believed that as long as it was a man, he wouldn't be able to accept it.

Therefore, it was natural for him to conclude that Princess Anping and Gu Yinian didn't have any feelings for each other. Even if they did, it would only barely be a match for each other.

Of course, there were also people who said that he hadn't remarried after so many years. It was just that he had Princess Anping in his heart, and she couldn't accommodate other people. However, these were the views of ordinary people and he did not agree with them at all. In his opinion, it was because he had not taken a wife for so many years that this marriage seemed to be problematic. The main reason why he had not remarried for so many years was simply because of the pressure from above. Perhaps it was due to the fact that Princess Anping had passed away a long time ago that he had drawn the ire of the higher-ups. That was why he had been so quiet all these years, just for the higher-ups to see.

When he was young, he had only speculated about these things, but as he grew older, he became more and more convinced that he was right.

After all, even if such a thing happened to him, he wouldn't be able to truly like that woman wholeheartedly. He might have been forced to do it out of helplessness in the beginning, but once he had a chance to turn the situation around, he definitely wouldn't show mercy to that woman. Even if that woman was innocent, he wouldn't be able to love her wholeheartedly. The more he loved her, the more heartfelt his feelings would be.

Unfortunately, he would never know that there were many things in this world that were so magical and coincidental. There were many things that could not be measured by the eyes of others.

As for the matter between Princess Anping and Gu Yinian …

Naturally, they were not meant for outsiders.

However, right now, he was not in the mood to think about anything else. Right now, the one he was most worried about was still Gu Qingyi.

"Say something, what should we do now?" Seeing that the rich brocade actually wanted to get rid of him, how could Xuanyuan Jing allow her to get rid of him at this point? Now that Gu Yannan had gone to war, Gu Qingyi was the daughter of Princess Anping and had so many eyes on her.

His actions this time were extremely risky. If Gu Qingyi had fainted like this, then …

Imperial Father and Royal Grandmother had instructed her to enter the palace tomorrow.

How could she enter the palace when she was in such a coma?

By then, if any flaws were found out …

Although this poison was extremely rare, there were so many imperial physicians in the imperial palace that it was impossible for them to simply give up. If they were able to find out what poison it was, then when the time came, he would …

No, no, this kind of thing can't happen no matter what you say. Thinking up to here, Xuanyuan Jing's expression became even darker and darker, "Don't think that if you don't speak, it's none of your business. If anything happens to this prince, this prince will naturally not let you go!"

"What does Your Highness mean by this?" "Embroidery is just following Your Highness's arrangements. Your highness wants to meet First Miss, you are cousins. Your highness has a noble identity, how can a mere maid like me stop you?"

A trace of cold light quickly flashed across her eyes.

Yes, she would never admit it.

Of course she knew that Xuanyuan Jing definitely didn't have any good intentions in getting close to Gu Qingyi at this time, but what did all of this have to do with her? She was only a maid, and there was a limit to what she could do. What status did Xuanyuan Jing have? He was the prince's highness, so since he requested to see her, there was no way for him to refuse.

"You … You... "So you've already thought about it!" Suddenly, Xuanyuan Jing's words became more and more unsightly as he fiercely stared at the rich brocade.

He had actually spent many years to get closer to her and thought that this would be a very useful chess piece. He had directly placed this chess piece next to Gu Qingyi without the relationship with his father, so no one would know the answer. Even if Gu Qingyi felt that there was something wrong with this person, she would only suspect her original master, and would definitely not suspect him.

And this time, if it weren't for the brocade, he would never have had the chance to approach Gu Qingyi without anyone noticing.

But...

He had never thought that this embroidery would actually backfire on his way here.

From the looks of it, she was trying to sell him out.

He was the only one who schemed against others. Since when was it his turn to be schemed against?

Xuanyuan Jing's expression was terrifyingly gloomy as he coldly stared at the beautiful scene before him. His posture made it seem as if he wanted to swallow her whole.

After a long while, he suddenly laughed: "Hehe, do you really think this prince can't do anything to you? Do you really think that this prince does not know about your selfish motives? "

With a sneer on his face, Xuanyuan Jing stared coldly at the brocade.

"You … What nonsense is His Highness spouting? I don't know about brocade, but brocade is just a maid. "

Could it be …

Embroidery's heart thumped and her face instantly paled. However, she quickly recovered and forced herself to put on a calm expression as she quietly played with Xuanyuan Jing.

"Is that so? A maid? Heh heh, if I don't get rid of Princess Anping's child, will you be able to calm your heart and be a maid? Don't you feel scared? You have waited for so many years, but who would have thought that instead of waiting for what you wanted, you would wait for the person you didn't want to see the most.

With a cold smile on his face, Xuanyuan Jingjing inched closer and closer as he stared at the brocade with a smile that was not a smile.

He was someone who would never do something he wasn't sure of, let alone someone he could use.

From the moment he realized what he was aiming for, he had been extremely careful with every step. He had never allowed even the slightest mistake to happen, especially when it came to servants. He was very clear on this point regarding servants. No matter who it was, they could be used to their advantage. Don't underestimate anyone. At a critical moment, it could bring about unexpected results.

Just like this brocade.

Of course, before using a servant, he had to investigate this person thoroughly and hold everything in his hands.

Naturally, the rich brocade was no exception.

However, he had never expected that this person, who seemed to have no problems, would send it after a quick check. Not only was there a problem, there was also a huge problem.

He did not expect that a small maid could hide herself so well. No wonder his investigations did not reveal anything when he first came in contact with her a few years ago.

Of course, this couldn't be blamed on him.

A few years ago, he was still young and he didn't have many people available to him. It wasn't a problem to ask about some insignificant information, but a situation like this woman's did not seem to be inconsistent with his shocking secrets at the time. Secondly, since this woman is now with royal father, it can only mean one thing, and that is that royal father wants to protect her. Since she is someone royal father wants to protect, it is understandable that she can't find out.

"You … What did you say? I, I don't understand! " In an instant, her face was devoid of color. She turned around in panic. "If anything happens to Your Highness, I'll be leaving first."

"Tsk tsk, you want to leave just like that?" Xuanyuan Jing looked as if victory was within his grasp as he laughed complacently, "Say, if Gu Yinian were to know about this, tsk tsk …" The person who fought alongside him in the past was actually plotting against him. What do you think he will do? "

Since he dared to use this person, he naturally calculated that he had the confidence to pinch her.

He was different from others. As long as a lot of people could be profitable, it was worth it even if there was a little bit of risk.

He was different!

He was well aware that his birth was already a weakness in this aspect. At this point in time, he definitely wouldn't let himself take even the slightest risk. He was especially aware of what he wanted. Sometimes, he just thought that the clearer the goal was, the more careful he had to be so that he wouldn't accidentally reveal his true intentions. He was very clear that right now, his royal father was very young and strong. Whether it was him or his other brothers, as long as anyone accidentally revealed a trace of him, what awaited them would be a thunderous fury.

Of course, the other brothers did better than him.

All of them began to train their minds and ignore worldly matters.

It was almost like being a monk. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he didn't have the resources. Their identities were there, and even if they didn't move, there were still people behind their backs to help them operate.

If they wanted something, they didn't even need to take it. There would be people who would obediently give it to them.

But he was different.

The only thing he wanted was to reach out and take it. If he didn't reach out, he wouldn't have anything, so even if he knew it was a risk, he still had to reach out.

Even though he did his best to stay true to his words, there were times when he saw a good opportunity. If he didn't reach out for it, he could only watch as it slipped away from his hands … Just like this time …

He was very clear in his heart that with Gu Yinian's ability, he would definitely win this battle without any hesitation. Once he returns with a great victory, at that time …

In the past, he did not even put himself in his eyes, much less in the future.

He knew very well that this was his only chance. If he didn't make good use of it, then …

Thus, even though he knew it was dangerous, he still decisively chose to make his move after weighing the pros and cons. This Gu Yinian had already become a thorn in his heart. If this person couldn't be used by him, then he would become his greatest obstacle in the future. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of this obstruction …

Of course, from the bottom of his heart, he wanted to make his last effort. If he could successfully pull Gu Yan Nian into his faction, then it would be like adding wings to a tiger!
