When the news reached the Jade Lotus Pavilion, Gu Qingdie was overjoyed. She put down the brush and smiled at the man on the paper: "There is no man under the heavens who is willing to wear a green hat, especially our prince.

Zi Qiao laughed and said, "Master, this time, no one will fight with you. The princess and Lateral Princess are both grounded, and you are the only one by the prince's side."

Gu Qingdie picked up the portrait, and carefully examined it, "Forbidding people's feet is nothing, you have to make them separate completely."

"What does Mistress mean?"

"Beat the iron while it's still hot, you have to give up on the idea." Gu Qingdie laughed sinisterly, and showed the portrait to her, "Did you draw it well or not?"

"Elephants are simply lifelike. My master's painting has improved once again. Your highness must like it. "

Gu Qingdie lowered her head and blew the half-wet ink on her head, and squinted her eyes to look at the man in the painting. This was the hundredth portrait she had drawn for Morong Gan, tall and jade-like, with an imposing aura, that dignity was not any less than the Emperor's, and it was hard to find a second one in the whole world. How lucky she was to be his woman.

Very quickly, he would be hers alone, after clearing out all these monsters, he would naturally see her. She was so beautiful, and so talented, and her zither, chess, calligraphy and paintings were all good. Compared to Xiu Yuanshuang's demure and uninteresting personality, Bai Qianfan's childishness, she was the most suitable woman for Morong Gan.

"Keep the paintings properly, I want to bring them to Huailin Pavilion."

Zi Qiao agreed, then took the portrait and rolled it up, tied it up with a ribbon and placed it inside the tube.

When Gu Qingdie arrived at the Huailin Pavilion, Morong Gan had already finished venting his temper. The servants were cleaning up the house, and there were some broken things piled up in the baskets beside the door. Gu Qingdie casually took a glance, and was secretly pleased in her heart, even the antique porcelain had fallen.

Seeing that she had come over, Hao Pingguan immediately greeted her. He whispered: "Is Concubine Princess here to look for Your Highness? Your Highness isn't in a good mood, I'll go in to report first."

Gu Qingdie was normally polite to Hao Pingguan, and said with a gentle smile, "Then I'll be troubling Head Steward."

Hao Pingguan walked into the room filled with cold air. Morong Gan seemed abnormally calm as he sat behind the table and flipped through the documents.

Hao Pingguan slapped Qian'er, "My prince, Concubine Princess is here."

Morong Gan frowned, "What is she doing? "I won't see him."

"Yes," Hao Pingguan bent his body and was about to exit the room, but he heard him again, "Call her in."

Hao Pingguan's heart skipped a beat. Now that Hou was willing to see the Concubine Princess, could it be that the Duke is going to change his mind? He did not dare to make any wild guesses, and turned to walk out the door, inviting Gu Qingdie in.

Probably because she had thrown many things, the moment Gu Qingdie entered, she felt that the house was empty and gave off a sense of coldness.

"I heard that the prince went back to his residence in a great rage and even banned the princess' legs. I was terrified, and wondered if the prince was angry because the princess went out to listen to a play. I have a responsibility to take care of this matter, so please punish me."

Morong Gan did not look at her, and his tone was very indifferent, "What mistake did you make?"

"Wangfei wants to go out, I can't stop her. Wangfei is the main wife, I don't dare to be impudent, so I can only arrange for a sedan to be sent to her."

"Since you can't stop it, you came here to tell This King to make up for it. This King will not only not punish you, but will also reward you."

"This concubine doesn't want a reward, I only ask that Your Highness forgive wangfei this time."

Morong Gan snorted, "You don't need to care about this matter."

Knowing Morong Gan's attitude, Gu Qingdie felt at ease and handed over the painting in her hand, "I made a painting for Your Highness, and Your Highness wants to see if you like it?"

Morong Gan's eyes were still fixed on the document, "Drop it."

Gu Qingdie was a little disappointed, seeing that Morong Gan had let her go.

She did not want to leave, and she had no excuse to stay. She was hesitating, when Morong Gan picked up the painting tube, and took out the drawing to look at.

Gu Qingdie's heart stirred. She was very happy, she was confident in her drawing skills, especially when Morong Gan's drawings were all part of her effort.

Morong Gan nodded his head, with a hint of praise in his voice, "Not bad, not bad, I'm very spirited."

"Thank you for your praise, your insignificant skill is insufficient. It's good that Your Highness likes it."

Morong Gan looked down for a long time, then suddenly raised his head. His eyes were faintly burning, and his heart was trembling as he looked at with excitement.

"If you're free, draw one for my wife. If you draw well, This King will reward you."

Gu Qingdie, "..." From the look of it, he had not given up on Bai Qianfan. She grinded her teeth in hatred, but her face did not reveal the slightest bit of emotion as she said respectfully, "Yes, this humble one will draw one for Princess Huo Wu tomorrow."

"Mn," Morong Gan waved his hand, "If you have nothing else, then leave."

Gu Qingdie was completely disappointed, she anxiously took the portrait to try and smile at him, she did not expect it to turn out like this. Because Bai Qianfan was forbidden from coming out, he would naturally not go with her golden mouth and jade words. Thus, asking her to draw a portrait was enough to comfort him from her longing!

She squatted down, angrily turned around, and heard Morong Gan's voice from behind her, "That's right, the Lateral Princess has also received her lesson, send out my message, withdraw her, from today onwards, remove the restriction."

The order was like a blow to the head, causing Gu Qingdie to jump in fright. It was not easy to lock one of them up, and another one was released. Could it be that now that the princess had lost her favour, the Lateral Princess would no longer pursue the matter?

She turned around and smiled, "This is great news. Elder Sister Xiu will definitely be extremely happy to hear it.

Coming out from the house, the sky darkened, but she seemed to be blinded by the afternoon sun as she felt a little dizzy. She held Zi Qiao's hands, closed her eyes and focused before walking away.

Zi Qiao noticed that her expression was strange, but did not dare ask, and supported her as they slowly walked.

After a long while, he heard Gu Qingdie's faint voice. "Lock one up, release one.

Zi Qiao was shocked: "They want to release Lateral Princess?"

"That's right," Gu Qingdie looked a little lost in the dusk, "Tell me, what exactly does your highness mean?"

Zi Qiao thought about it, "This servant thought that Lateral Princess was imprisoned because of the matter regarding the Royal Concubine. But now that the Royal Concubine isn't favored by her, those matters from the past will naturally no longer be a problem in the heart of the Prince."

Gu Qingdie's lips drew back into a bitter smile, "Among the three of us, the duke likes Bai Qianfan the most, and Xiu Yuanshuang is the next. As for me," she snorted at herself, "I don't think I have a chance to stick my head out."

"Mistress absolutely cannot think like this. Right now, the authority in the manor is still in the mistress' hands. Since Princess has been locked up and the Lateral Princess does not have any authority, you should at least be able to accomplish something."

Gu Qingdie did not utter a word, looking at the seemingly faint crescent moon in the sky, she quietly sighed, if a man does not have any feelings, then no matter how much he torments, it would all be for nothing. However, she had fallen into a pit and could no longer escape.
