Gu Yihan remembered how his daughter was babbling and learning to speak, and walking behind him, walking on small feet, and rushing over to call his father's cuteness.
She raised her little face and her eyes were big, as if she had put all her trust in her father's hands.
Gu Yihan sighed heavily.
The candles on the side stretched his shadow, revealing a little loneliness of being an emperor and a father.
"Nuoer, I hope you can understand Daddy's painstaking efforts."
He would rather be a bad person temporarily than let his daughter regret it later.
The next night, Siping Street was very lively.
The Pingle Banquet Lantern Market is like daytime, and the flashes of light are like blue clouds. Pedestrians are rubbing shoulders.
Gu Nuoer and the fifth prince, Gu Zichen, were walking on the bustling street.
The girl was carrying a rabbit lamp in her hand, which her brother had just bought for her.
"Sister, the person you asked me to investigate is almost clear."
"The Pang family was in Beizhili before, and his grandfathers were down-to-earth peasants, but when he came to his father's generation, he didn't know what adventures he had. He encountered a field of herbs on the mountain."
"Father Pang picked a lot of herbs and took them down the mountain to sell them, and thus started the road to making a fortune. In Pang Boyuan's generation, the Pang family even managed to do business in the capital."
Gu Zichen's narrow eyes were dark and deep, with a gleam that seemed like a smile but not a smile, his thin lips were slightly hooked, and he was very handsome.
As he talked to his sister, he blocked the crowd of pedestrians from touching her.
Gu Nuo'er held a soft candy cake in her right hand, took a bite, and the sweet taste bloomed in her mouth.
She asked curiously, "Meet a piece of herbal medicine on the mountain? Suddenly became rich?"
Gu Zichen smiled and nodded: "Yes, it sounds outrageous, doesn't it? I told him in a village before that Father Pang usually went up the mountain before dawn, and secretly came back when he was a child, for fear that someone would follow him. , to steal herbs."
Gu Nuo'er pouted: "It doesn't look real."
Gu Zichen narrowed his eyes: "I think so too. There are so many coincidences in everything. If he really finds such a treasure, he should make a fortune in silence. How can people in the village know about it."
"Perhaps, he said that, to cover up some real purpose."
Gu Nuo'er nodded and asked again, "Brother, what about Pang Boyuan's marriage? I heard from friends that his mother, sister-in-law and his own wife all went early. Wouldn't it be possible to condone his wife?"
Gu Zichen hummed: "When investigating him, someone said that."
"But there is no basis, and from what I have heard, both his father and Pang Boyuan himself are extremely gentle and polite to his wife, never taking concubines or provoking flowers."
"Pang Boyuan's wife was a marriage he decided in the village. Although his background was not good, Pang Boyuan treated her well."
"It's been three years since he sent his wife away, and he hasn't been looking for it again. This time, it was only after the matchmaker told him to kiss him that he settled with the girl from the Xie family."
Hearing this, Gu Nuoer was even more puzzled.
"Strange, since you have such a good relationship with your former wife, can you accept someone after three years?"
Gu Zichen smiled: "Maybe time has changed him. The Pang family has a big business now, and the fourth brother also has some business dealings with them. He will definitely marry again. How can a man die from one thing?"
Gu Nuo'er did not answer.
In my heart, I thought silently, Brother Siming would definitely do it.
Gu Nuo'er ate half of the fondant cake in her hand, and a little black dog who didn't know who it was came running.
