C146 (2/2)
Why did she feel that Wan'er had chosen a difficult path to walk on?
”Don't worry, ever since we were men, we will have to pay the price for our lives, at most, Sheng Luan will lose a leg, it won't trouble us Gu Wan.”
As he walked back, he didn't know whether or not the Eighth Lord Xie had understood the meaning of breaking legs, but he immediately took three steps back in fright. He stuck out his tail and stretched out his front paws, looking at the two in weird postures.
Xie Jingxi chanced upon it by chance and was shocked, ”You really shaved it's fur!”
Thanks to Lord Gu's two to three months of training, the effect of losing weight was little, so the Lord Gu had no choice but to execute the punishment himself. He shaved off the hair on the Eighth Lord's belly, and all he had to do was stand up and leave.
No wonder it had been lying on the ground ever since the fight started. It turned out that it was the type to be shy when it saw people. Now it was over. Eighth Lord wouldn't be able to maintain his dignified sitting posture for the time being.
”It's so ugly!” Xie Jingxi was angry and amused at the same time.
”Who told you not to come back? I can't hold it in when I'm bored. I think it's pretty good. At least it's thinner by half a circle.”
It strongly requested that she should return to the villa to be Gu Sansi's companion. At the very least, it could bully Gu Sansi and not be bullied.
The facts proved that the Lord Gu already had something wrong with it.
”I think you won't be able to stay at home for much longer. Since Shen Rui came to the capital, your Imperial Court has become unstable, and you have many things to do during the new year. How can His Majesty ask you to hide away?”
”That's true.” Gu Yun's fingers were wrapped around her hair, ”Last time you told me that the Second Prince was afraid of a hidden disease?”
”En, that's right, I was just guessing. Don't tell me you want to say …”
If Second Prince had a hidden disease, what would Imperial Noble Consort Shen do? Since there were people who would openly probe him, it showed that there were people who suspected him. If this matter were to be known by His Majesty, then Imperial Noble Consort Shen's game of chess would completely disappear.
”Be careful when you enter the palace recently. Don't get caught up in anything.”
”Speaking of entering the palace, when the little prince was at the full moon, I saw Imperial Consort Shen, and felt that she did not look too good. It looks like she did indeed suffer a great loss, the little prince is rather healthy.”
Seeing the child, he knew that even if he was born a few days earlier, he would still be much bigger than the other children. Then, there must be something fishy going on with Imperial Consort Shen's Fetal Qi.
Not long after the Fourth Prince was born, the young royal grandson of the Former Crown Prince Palace suddenly became severely ill. When he heard that it was extremely dangerous, and he was almost unable to save him, it was said that he ate something unclean.
Was it all the work of the empress?
But it didn't seem like it. Since he had already made a move, why didn't he just make it a bit more thorough?
”Alright, it's already dark. Don't think about it anymore.” Gu Yun carried her into the house, ”Since Xi does not allow me to eat, then let's rest early.”
”…”
He had been taken back by the detestable and cunning Lord Gu.
The two of them hadn't been together for more than half a year, which made them feel like they were getting married. Fortunately, Lord Gu had nothing to do at home, so they could sleep in bed the next day, but Xie Jingxi was in a rather miserable state. She hadn't accepted the favor in a long time, so the pain in her bed wasn't that much better than when they got married.
Gu Yun laughed softly as he rubbed her waist, ”You really haven't made any progress at all. Have you read the books for nothing?”
Xie Jingxi really wanted to find something to block his mouth, who knew that he would be so unrestrained after being injured for just a few days, what use was there reading so many books?
The worst part was that later on, every time Xie Jingxi couldn't get out of bed, there would be something important.
Recently, there had been a lot of accidents at the Southern Chamber of Commerce. Right at this moment, Song Yanchen entered the capital.
Xie Jingxi went to the capital to meet Gu Yun and his wife. Xie Jingxi was going there, and coincidentally, it just so happened to be the case that today, so Gu Yun casually dragged her up to change his clothes.
The Right Shore Merchant Union Hall was located on the Southern Street of the Merchant Shop, which was very bustling, but it was not very close to the Marquis Mansion and Xie Jingxi would usually not come here.
”How do you know the people from the South Merchant Union? Wouldn't that lead to gossip? ”
Gu Yun told her everything that had happened on the way here, ”Don't worry, it's good for you to get to know each other, in the future, there might be a use for you.”
Although he did not know what he was referring to in the future, Gu Yun had already arranged for it to have a deeper meaning, so Xie Jingxi had no choice but to focus fully on it.
”Wife, look out for the path under your feet. If you fall, you'll lose face.” Gu Yun held her hand and passed the threshold. Just now, when he got off the car, his legs went soft and he almost fell down.
”Mrs. Gu is really nice.” A woman around 30 years old walked out, smiling at the two of them who loved each other dearly, and behind her was a rather elegant man.
It was Song Yanchen and Madame Song.
