Yun Xiangye chuckled as she listened to Nuonuo's voice and said, "Okay, Mom will find you a father who can buy you candied haws."

Gu Yan stopped Yun Xiangye and said, "No, I was wrong."

Yun Xiangye asked, "Is this your attitude of admitting your mistake?"

Gu Yan took a deep breath and said, "I really know I was wrong."

Yun Xiangye said, "You just said it yourself, that Nuonuo doesn't have the surname Gu, and that you can recognize someone else as your father and become someone else's daughter in the future. You don't even care about Nuonuo anymore, so there's no need for me to give you another chance!"

Little Nuonuo didn't know what had happened. She only knew that her father had made her mother angry. She hugged Yun Xiangye's shoulders and said, "Mom, don't be angry."

Yun Xiangye said, "Mother is not angry."

Yun Xiangye raised her eyes to look at Gu Yan and said, "You asked me to give you another chance. I did it entirely for Nuonuo's sake. Since you don't care about Nuonuo, I don't need to give you any more chances. Nuonuo will naturally find a father who truly loves her."

Gu Yan hurriedly said, "Nuonuo is also my flesh and blood, how could I not truly love her?"

Yun Xiangye said, "If you want to admit your mistake, then find a way for my sister to become the Crown Princess as Ye Wanhe, not Wei Zhenzhu."

Gu Yan frowned slightly, "You've given me a very difficult question."

Yun Xiangye said, "Then I can only follow your wishes and let Nuonuo recognize someone else as my father. Nuonuo, how about we change our father?"

Little Nuonuo glanced at Gu Yan, tilted his head and said, "I want candied haws, Daddy."

Yun Xiangye chuckled and agreed.

Gu Yan's face darkened. "You have to give me some time to think of a solution."

Upon hearing this, Yun Xiangye carried Nuonuo into the room. Seeing Gu Yan about to follow her in, she closed the door. When she heard Gu Yan knocking outside, she said, "I only said I'd give you one chance. Now that you and I are still arguing about divorce, it's better for us to sleep in separate rooms."

Gu Yan: “…”

Yun Xiangye was teaching Nuonuo to speak in the house. Nuonuo learned quickly. She was just over two years old, but her speech was becoming more and more fluent. Although her articulation was still unclear, the adults had to guess.

But Nuonuo can already speak several words in a row, and is very smart.

At night, after Yun Xiangye coaxed Nuonuo to sleep, she also fell asleep.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, she felt a force coming from her waist.

Yun Xiangye was so frightened that her whole body trembled. "Someone, help..."

Gu Yan quickly reached out and covered Yun Xiangye's lips: "It's me."

Yun Xiangye stood up and lit the candle outside the bed curtains. After seeing Gu Yan clearly, she asked, "Where did you come from?"

She had clearly locked the doors and windows.

Gu Yan pointed to the skylight above his head and said, "Enter through the skylight on the roof."

Yun Xiangye pinched Gu Yan's waist fiercely and said, "You scared me to death."

Gu Yan held Yun Xiangye's hand, pulled her into his arms and said, "Without you by my side, I can't fall asleep at all. Since you want me to find a solution, you have to let me get a good night's sleep."

Yun Xiangye saw Gu Yandu climb onto the roof and enter through the skylight, but she didn't chase him away after all. "Think of a solution."

Gu Yan said, "Since His Highness is willing to let Sister He be the Crown Princess, he must have Sister He in his heart. However, no matter how much he loves Sister He, he cannot ignore his position as the Crown Prince of Dasheng. Sister He's background cannot be so humble. Now that the imperial decree has been issued, it would be extremely difficult to ask Sister He not to defend Zhenzhu..."

Yun Xiangye finally gave him a real problem.

"Why don't you just do as I say and wait for the child in your sister's belly to inherit the throne. Then you can let your sister recognize her ancestors and he can recognize his biological grandfather."

Yun Xiangye was no longer sleepy. "I don't know how many years it will take for the child in my sister's belly to succeed to the throne. I see that Your Majesty is strong and healthy, and it won't be difficult for him to be emperor for another twenty years. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also a disaster that will last for thousands of years. After he ascends the throne, I don't know how many years he can live.

I don’t know how many years it will take for the baby in my sister’s womb to succeed to the throne. To put it bluntly, if my little nephew really succeeds to the throne, I don’t know if my uncle and aunt will still be alive.

How could I have endured this for so many years? Besides, my sister is two years older than the Crown Prince, so it's not necessarily that she will be behind the Crown Prince. We can't just kill the Crown Prince and let my little nephew ascend the throne as soon as possible, right? "

Yun Xiangye said this and jokingly whispered to Gu Yan, "It's not that the crown prince can't be killed... His Majesty the Current Emperor only has one son, the Crown Prince, and the one you're carrying is the only grandson of the Emperor. If the baby in your belly is a boy... If you kill the crown prince, the boy in your belly will be the undisputed crown prince..."

Gu Yan listened to Yun Xiangye's voice as thin as a mosquito's. He knew that she was joking, but he really didn't expect that Yun Xiangye, who looked delicate and weak, could have such a bold and deadly idea.

"No, my cousin is not guilty of a crime that deserves death."

Gu Yan especially emphasized the word "cousin". Yun Xiangye might have forgotten that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was still his cousin, and they were as close as brothers.

Yun Xiangye said, "I was just joking. Look how nervous you are. Normally, I wouldn't even step on an ant to death, so how could I actually kill someone?"

Gu Yan said, "Is this a joke? Even a red seal and an iron certificate can't save our entire family's lives."

Gu Yan stopped talking about the regicide. After all, the more he talked, the more mistakes he made. "I'll think of another way."

Yun Xiangye was so sleepy that she stopped talking to Gu Yan and fell asleep.

As the wedding day of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince approaches, foreign faces are becoming more and more common in Chang'an City, and many foreign envoys have arrived in Chang'an one after another.
