"Zi Xi was naughty enough to give me a surprise, but she didn't pay attention to her feet. She slipped into the lake."
His Highness, the Crown Prince, who cared for the fairer sex, knew what was important and sent someone to accompany Gu Ziyan. Even though Gu Ziyan was disappointed and astonished, he still forced himself to follow Xiao Ze's trusted aide to the side hall.
Gu Mingyan laughed. Gu Ziyan had wanted to borrow the curtain of the crown prince, but now, he could only gain two or three trusted aides with tears in his eyes. It could be said that this was not worth it.
A light smile appeared on his lips, but he heard Xiao Ze then said: "The Prime Minister's son is getting along harmoniously, and this prince is actually envious."
When she came back to her senses, she saw the miserable look on Xiao Ze's face, and sighed.
He really couldn't stand seeing the way the man looked like, so Gu Mingyan hurriedly said: "In this world, even though there are eight or nine people who are unsatisfied, there is still one or two who are happy, and the crown prince has a noble identity, so he is naturally more blissful and satisfied than many others. There is no need to be envious of us sisters, it is just that he has to tread on thin ice, and do things with caution."
He was using himself as a comparison to comfort Xiao Ze.
But in Xiao Ze's eyes, it seemed as if they understood each other, and his eyes lit up: "It's said that the young miss is born in the countryside, and does not know how to read and write. In my opinion, the young miss is even more knowledgeable than someone who has read many poems."
"Your Highness is too kind. Just now, I saw that little sister Zi Yan really likes you. If you don't go, little sister Zi Yan will probably be angry."
Gu Mingyan raised the corner of his mouth bitterly. Seeing that the crown prince was getting tighter and tighter, it seemed like he still wanted to say something.
She could only hit him with a straight ball.
But who would have thought that she would get up together with Xiao Ze? One of her hands was held by Xiao Ze, who had a tender and loving look written all over his face, "I knew that you were troubled at every turn at the Prime Minister's Mansion Academy."
"Mm …"
What do you mean?
You want to attack me together with Gu Ziyan?
Gu Mingyan stiffened his body, and heard Xiao Ze say: "This time, I will first go see your two sisters, I don't know if the next time, I will have the chance to meet them alone?"
Luckily, he didn't want to mess with me.
Gu Mingyan forced himself to smile, but still shook his head, "Your highness the crown prince, I …"
"Miss Ming Yan need not belittle yourself. This crown prince is familiar with the scenery of the Shengan, in the future, I will personally invite Miss Ming Yan to visit this place."
After hastily throwing down that last sentence, Xiao Ze pinched her fingertip yet was unsatisfied, and turned to leave.
Gu Mingyan frowned as he wiped the fingers on his body. He became even more confused: "What are you inviting me for?"
"Can you really not see through the Crown Prince's intentions, Eldest Miss?" Shuang Hua walked up to her with a cold face and rubbed her hands clean with the handkerchief.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Mingyan said seriously: "He saw that we are sisters, and wanted to find me to attack Gu Ziyan, it was truly a good plan, he almost fell for it. I don't want to match them. "
It was her fault for overestimating Eldest Miss's love for him.
Even if Eldest Miss was smart, she came from a mountain village and was still young. She couldn't see through the word "love" as clearly as Shengan disciples could.
Shuang Hua didn't know what to say for a moment, and only relaxed his grip, and said helplessly: "Why doesn't Eldest Miss want to match them?"
"Gu Ziyan is powerful, but he only knows how to bully me. Furthermore, from the looks of it, the crown prince is not a bad person. For the rest of his life, with such a cunning woman like Gu Ziyan, I'm afraid that he will try to do something else in the future. "
Gu Mingyan had a good evaluation of the crown prince.
Shuang Hua anxiously noted down this matter. He only found a reason to say that she should go see her father and bring him away.
What if the Crown Prince came back?
The Crown Prince had even made a move on the young miss!
Gu Mingyan did not know what Shuang Hua was thinking, but after walking a few steps, he met Gu Zhiyuan with a gloomy face.
"Sister Shuang Hua, you better not cause Daddy any trouble. I'll go find you and His Highness in a while."
She did not want to confront her father in the same way as yesterday. Even though the father and daughter duo had their own intentions, it was better for them not to fall out with each other.
Shuang Hua understood, and quietly left, thinking that nothing would happen to the Prime Minister.
Obediently walking forward, Gu Mingyan chuckled: "Yesterday, daughter stuck her head out for Big Sister Shuang Hua, I really took into consideration what Your Highness was thinking, I hope father can forgive me."
Gu Zhiyuan immediately expressed his loyalty, but was puzzled: "Are you saying, that was what you said on purpose yesterday?"
"If it's not so, how could Your Highness and Big Sister Shuang Hua trust me?" Gu Mingyan smiled lightly as he walked forward and tugged on Gu Zhiyuan's sleeve, lowering his head. "Father and I are blood related, so naturally, daughter will not turn her elbow towards the outside."
Gu Zhiyuan looked at her older daughter who had suddenly become innocent again, her heart in chaos.
It was indeed a good thing that her daughter was so intelligent and experienced.
However, he felt that this kind of daughter was difficult to control. Thinking back to her performance in the pavilion together with the crown prince, his face immediately turned even colder. "Since you're so smart, you should at least know that His Highness is …"
"Your daughter understands father's meaning. In my opinion, the Crown Prince just wanted to rope in my sister so that he could get close to little sister Ziyan." Gu Mingyan said with great confidence: "Since Your Highness has intentions, I think my daughter should say a few words to properly arrange the match. I wonder where you have done wrong and offended father?"
After he finished speaking, Gu Mingyan carefully pulled on Gu Zhiyuan's sleeves.
Seeing her daughter being so careful, it did not seem like she was faking it. He could only point at her nose and say, "Pulling like this isn't proper."
Gu Mingyan giggled, but Gu Zhiyuan also calmed down a little.
He had never realized that his eldest daughter was actually so good-looking. Furthermore, she looked pure on the surface, and would probably win over many men's hearts, but after the marriage agreement that day, such a good daughter could only be sent to the Seventh Prince Palace.
After thinking about it again and again, he walked shoulder to shoulder with his daughter and said: "Your Highness Seventh Prince's legs are injured, in the future, you can also be a Carefree King. If there comes a day, you have to properly advise your Seventh Prince so that he can see clearly."
"Daddy means …" Gu Mingyan looked up and saw Gu Zhiyuan nodding slightly.
He wanted to borrow the power within the Seventh Prince to assist the Crown Prince or Fourth Prince in ascending to the throne. This way, the Seventh Prince and she would not go against the power on the other side, while the Prime Minister would be the one to rule the whole world.
It was a pity that Xiao Qiran's legs were not a problem at all.
I have already sent someone over to your mother's side. In the future, when you marry you as the Consort of the Seventh Prince, your father will naturally return to protect you. It's just that everyday in the residence, you should not cause trouble with your mother or father, so as to not make things difficult for you. "
"This daughter will remember father's words."
Gu Mingyan agreed on the surface, but he laughed coldly in his heart.
She hoped that she would understand that this father had truly failed to help her.
