The next day was a dark and gloomy day, but Xiu Yuanshuang's mood was as clear as ever. From the moment she entered the palace until now, she could no longer remember the last time she was so relaxed.
Right now, sitting here, she still couldn't believe it. She asked Qiu Wen: "Has the wangfei really left the house?"
"Of course it's true. Didn't Mistress personally see her leave yesterday?"
"Do you think that Prince will bring her back?"
"Definitely not. Have you ever seen someone sent to the manor and brought back? There's no such precedent!" Qiu Wen said joyfully, "Master, you've finally survived!"
Xiu Yuanshuang wasn't as optimistic as her, "Now that there's a Bai Qianfan here, and a Huangfu Zhuer has arrived, I think it's better for me to be more sensible than to join in on the fun."
Qiu Wen said: "Master, what's there to be afraid of about that Huangfu Zhuer, she is the daughter of a sinner, she cannot be exposed to the public, could it be that Your Highness will really marry her? But just for the sake of the past, you have to take her in and take care of her, that's all. When the wangfei leaves, you have to bring out the aura of a Lateral Princess, don't let her underestimate you, she is from Grand Scholar, and we are also, aren't any weaker than her. "
Xiu Yuanshuang tilted her head to look at the reflection of his hair in the mirror, and used a drop of Xiaoduo's pearl to press against his shattered hair on her forehead, "I've been bored for too long, let's go out for a walk today."
Qiu Wen's face lit up, "Master's way of thinking is right," she said as she ordered a pair of peach buns for Xiu Yuanshuang, then looked left and right, "Speaking of which, Prince has not seen Mistress for a long time. This person is always together, only at a distance can you see the scent.
Xiu Yuanshuang's face darkened, "Who said that they wanted to see him? Stop talking so much. Why are you sweeping away rouge? Am I a fox charmer? "
Qiu Wen laughed, then stood at the side, not daring to say a word.
After being bored in the courtyard for so long, Xiu Yuanshuang did want to go out for a walk. When Bai Qianfan left, wasn't she the Lateral Princess who was being stepped on?
After breakfast, she took Qiu Wen out of the room and walked over to the side of the Bright Lake. There was nothing good to see in the winter, so the trees by the lakeside had all fallen off their leaves, their bare branches reaching towards the gray-blue sky as if they were shouting soundlessly. She stood at the center of the lake, with her cloak tightly wrapped around her, and gazed at the Lotus Appreciation Pavilion on the other side of the lake.
It was just that Gu Qingdie's father was a martial general, so she had more than enough courage and patience. The warning Scholars gave her was: If you can't kill him with a single blow, then it's best if you don't act rashly.
Morong Gan was a strong person. He had a pair of clear eyes, and before she could completely understand him, she did not dare to play tricks in front of him. She did not have any other abilities, and the only thing he had was patience. At that time, she believed that he would one day be able to survive.
After standing for a long time, the wind blew on her face, causing her to feel somewhat cold. She withdrew her gaze and slowly walked towards the lake, raising her head. A few steps away stood a woman wearing a red jacket.
Although Xiu Yuanshuang had never seen Huangfu Zhuer before, she knew that she was definitely him.
After some thought, she still walked over with the most dignified smile on her face. "So it's Miss Huangfu. Why did you come to the backyard?"
Huangfu Zhuer was actually still able to marry the direct wife of the Grand Scholar Palace. Although he was only a Lateral Princess, she knew that when Bai Qianfan married into the Lateral Princess, no one took his seriously, including Morong Gan himself. In reality, when Xiu Yuanshuang married into the Lateral Princess, he was only prepared to succeed his as her direct wife.
Her Huangfu clan had already fallen, and the cultivator clan was rising and changing generations, it was the sacrifice of some people and also the position of some people, she was unworthy of her father and hated him for the injustice of this world. When her father was a marquis of the Grand Scholar, Xiu Min was still practicing cultivation in the Hall of Martial Arts, but to boast about and gain recognition in front of the First Prince back then, when the new emperor ascended to the throne, he turned into a Grand Scholar of the dynasty.
She looked at Xiu Yuanshuang coldly, pretending to be nothing more than that. It was a pity that she couldn't get her favor and was not favored.
"What, I can't come to the backyard?"
Xiu Yuanshuang stuck her hot face to her cold butt. Naturally, she was angry, but she was also a little surprised.
She still had a smile on her face, "Speaking of which, Miss Huangfu is also not an outsider. You can go anywhere in this mansion, but," she changed the topic, "Miss's status is special after all, and there are too many people in the mansion. It would be bad if the news gets out."
Huangfu Zhuer was sure that she would use this as an topic and was already prepared for it. She smiled, "This is not something that I am worried about, even the Emperor knows I am here, what is there to be afraid of others gossiping about?"
The Emperor knew that Huangfu Zhuer was in the Prince Chu Palace and did not send anyone to capture him. There must have been something that the Prince Chu did in the middle of it, but she could not think of anything that could make the Emperor let go of the criminals. Was he not afraid of Huangfu Zhuer taking revenge on him?
Seeing Xiu Yuanshuang's shocked expression, Huangfu Zhuer was even more pleased in her heart. Even though she had lost face last night, after thinking about it again, she felt that her feelings towards Morong Gan were completely different. He respected her too much, so he didn't want to make her feel wronged at all.
It was her fault for being too impatient. She wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to persuade him, only to embarrass herself in the end.
She no longer wanted to pay attention to Xiu Yuanshuang, so she turned around and walked towards the lakeside. Xiu Yuanshuang stood there without moving, silently watching her figure as she walked further away.
It was only until her figure disappeared behind the tree did Xiu Yuanshuang ask Qiu Wen, "Tell me, since the emperor knows Huangfu Zhuer is back, why didn't he come to capture her?"
Qiu Wen said, "It must be because of the Duke!"
Xiu Yuanshuang shook her head, "Since the Emperor executed the entire Huangfu Clan, he definitely would not let them revive. For those who escaped the net, she would only mercilessly kill them. I really can't think of what could the Prince possibly use to persuade the Emperor? Or maybe, how can the prince save Huangfu Zhuer's life? "
Qiu Wen rolled her eyes, "Master, this is no small matter, do you want to send a message to the old master?"
Xiu Yuanshuang thought for a while, "Mn, I will personally make a trip and see what my father has to say."
