Chapter 317: Princess Separation
Not far away, Mu Junyan stood and listened to their conversation.
Seeing Gu Huan walking towards him angrily, he hurried to meet her.
"Huan'er..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Huan looked up at him, her face darkened, and she walked around him and left.
Mu Junyan panicked and hurriedly followed: "Huan'er, listen to my explanation."
Gu Huan stopped suddenly, and Mu Junyan almost bumped into her, so he quickly braked.
"Explanation? Sister Zhilan is lying there. Will the explanation be useful? Can the explanation clear Sister Zhilan's name?"
Gu Huan became more and more angry as she spoke: "Sister Zhilan was such a cheerful person, but she was tortured to the point of being on the verge of death. She almost lost all hope of survival. What are you explaining?"
As she spoke, she started to cry: "You men don't understand how difficult it is for women in this world. You men can have three wives and four concubines, and you can ruin a woman's innocence without admitting it, thinking that giving a betrothal gift to a girl is enough to repay her." Mu Junyan: "..."
Oops, this is bringing up old issues.
Gu Huan continued to cry: "Zhou Chunyu thought that he just needed to be good to Sister Zhilan in the future, but does he understand the pain in Sister Zhilan's heart? She wanted to give her pure self to Zhou Chunyu. Even if he couldn't be a real man, she didn't despise him. She endured grievances for so many years and followed him without a name or status. After waiting for a long time, the clouds finally cleared and the moon appeared. Zhou Chunyu woke up and was willing to marry her, but she was hurt by you men who thought you loved her. What did Sister Zhilan do to anyone? Why is she the one suffering?"
"Huan'er, I'm sorry..."
"Is sorry useful? Can I start over again if I'm sorry?"
Gu Huan cried with tears and snot, and all the grievances she had suffered over the years came flooding back to her mind.
Although she seduced him in order to save her life, wasn't he unwilling to take responsibility at the beginning?
These men are such bastards!
Gu Huan became angrier and angrier, but she didn't want to scold him anymore, so she yelled at him, "Stay away from me! I don't want to see you being selfish!"
As he said this, he ran straight to the yard where a pair of children were.
Mu Junyan looked at her back, at a loss.
I know she is really angry this time. How can I coax her?
Zhou Chunyu asked the guards of Prince Yong's mansion to relax their guards to the outside world, but he had a secret arrangement.
Indeed, no one expected that these beasts would target the Zhou Mansion, let alone target Zhou Zhilan, who had nothing to do with them.
This is indeed their fault.
Mu Junyan also felt extremely guilty.
But things have already happened, he will try his best to make up for it, but Gu Huan's words just now touched him.
Being a woman in this world is indeed much more difficult than being a man, especially when it comes to having a clean reputation, which is often not the woman's fault, but can also cost her life.
Mu Junyan just stood there, his head buzzing.
Suddenly, it started snowing heavily.
He didn't notice anything at all and was just thinking quietly.
Akabane, who was not far away, couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he quietly stepped forward and whispered, "Master, it's snowing."
"oh."
Mu Junyan responded blankly and looked up at the sky.
Then he whispered, "Tomorrow, you can release them and let them enter the city to issue the decree."
Akabane clasped his fists: "Yes."
It turned out that Chi Yan's subordinates had already discovered that Bian Jing had sent someone to convey the imperial edict.
Although I don't know what the imperial edict is, the emperor of Bian Jing has been in poor health, and it must be no good if the imperial edict is delivered at this time.
As soon as Mu Junyan got the news, he was worried that it was a bad thing and would delay Zhou Chunyu's wedding, so he ordered his people to set up some obstacles for them and deliberately crashed their carriage, causing them to be stranded five kilometers away from Juzhou.
In addition, it started snowing in the past two days, and I had originally wanted to wait until Zhou Chunyu’s wedding before letting them in. However, after the accident, I had no time to take care of them, so the delay lasted for two days.
When Gu Huan saw Tuantuan and Yuanyuan's happy faces, the depressed mood in her heart dissipated a little. She played with the two little cuties for a while, and Donghua peeked in.
"Winter flower."
Gu Huan called her.
She came in quickly: "Princess, the prince said you should go back and rest. It's snowing and he's worried you'll get cold."
Gu Huan ignored her words and directly ordered: "I will live with the children from tonight onwards. You and Dong Qing help me move my things over."
"Ah?" Donghua and Dongqing, who was teasing the child nearby, were both surprised.
Donghua knew a little bit about the situation, which was told to her secretly by Akabane.
It is said that the princess is angry with the prince.
"But the prince is waiting outside..."
Gu Huan's face darkened: "Are you my maid or his? If you listen to him, you don't have to serve me!"
Donghua was terrified. It was the first time she saw Gu Huan so angry at her.
She knelt on the ground and said, "I am the princess's servant."
Dongqing and the nanny and maids in the room quickly knelt on the ground.
Qi Qi said tremblingly: "Princess, please calm down."
Gu Huan looked around. She had never lost her temper with servants before, and she didn't know why she, who was always good-tempered, became so impatient.
Her tone softened: "Everyone, get up. I just want to stay with the children for a few days. You don't need to be nervous."
Donghua's face was still pale. Seeing that Gu Huan's complexion had not yet recovered, she did not dare to get up.
Although Dongqing didn't know what had happened, she understood the princess's temperament. She never got angry with the servants. Even if the servants did something wrong, she would forgive them magnanimously.
Something big must have happened to make her like this.
She stood up and pulled Donghua up as well: "Princess, we will go pack up now."
Donghua's legs were shaking and she almost cried.
Gu Huan felt sad and her eyes were slightly hot. In order to avoid being seen by them, she turned around to tease Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan.
Dong Qing pulled the housekeeper and whispered, "Hurry up and prepare a room for the princess."
The housekeeper was also quite frightened, but after all, she was of a certain age and had a lot of experience, so she quickly calmed down.
"Don't worry, Miss Dongqing. I will arrange everything myself. You just need to take some of the princess' makeup boxes and one or two sets of spare skirts. The bedding and everything else will be new."
Dongqing knew that the housekeeper here was someone close to the old lady, so it was naturally appropriate.
Donghua followed Dongqing out crying.
The servants dared not make a sound and quietly made the bed for the room.
Gu Huan didn't say anything else. She coaxed the children to sleep. After Dong Qing and the others helped them take a bath, they went to bed early.
The snow outside was getting heavier and heavier. Gu Huan couldn't fall asleep for a while and her mind was in a mess.
Because it was so quiet, I could hear Donghua's low voice outside the window.
"The master has been standing outside for a long time. No one dares to approach him. He has no umbrella. He has become a snowman. What should we do?"
Dong Qing said calmly, "We, the servants, cannot interfere in this matter. Don't you know what kind of temper our princess has? She always speaks softly and never gets angry with us. She also takes good care of the master. To make the princess become like this, something must have happened and she was furious."
Gu Huan was in a state of confusion.
It's snowing so heavily, and he's standing there without an umbrella?
What do Akabane Fuyumo and the others eat?
What if I get frozen?
However, she didn't want to compromise or talk.
Who made them take Sister Zhilan's wedding so lightly and caused her to become like this?
The two were still chirping, and Gu Huan got annoyed and shouted loudly outside: "Shut up!"
Donghua and Dongqing were so scared that they almost fell to their knees.
They couldn't understand why the gentle and considerate princess got angry and made them so scared.
Dongqing patted Donghua gently, turned and went into the room, walked carefully to the bed, touched Gu Huan's quilt tentatively, and tucked the corner of the quilt for her.
He turned around and gently fiddled with the charcoal fire.
While doing this, he pricked up his ears to listen to Gu Huan's movements.
The princess must not have slept yet. She also heard that her master had turned into a snowman. Dongqing wondered if the princess would be soft-hearted.
After waiting for a long time and seeing no movement from Gu Huan, he had to tiptoe out.
As soon as he got to the door, he heard a muffled voice coming from the bed: "Tell Dong Mo that if he gets sick from the cold, I'll only ask him."
"Hey." Dongqing was overjoyed. He responded softly and closed the door gently.
When Donghua saw her coming out, she hurriedly grabbed her, but did not dare to speak.
Holly whispered in her ear.
Donghua nodded vigorously and ran out quickly.
When the old lady heard what Yi Niang said, she just said calmly: "It doesn't matter, he won't be frozen to death. Let's go to sleep."
Yi Niang was surprised: "Old Madam, you really don't want to persuade her? This is the first time the princess has lost her temper. What if the prince can't appease her?"
"Don't worry. They are a couple that just have it too easy. Maybe it will be better if they get upset and throw tantrums."
The old lady went to bed, and Yi Niang had no choice but to help her rest.
Soon, the whole palace knew that the princess was staying in the young lady's and young master's courtyard tonight and that the prince had become a snowman.
The atmosphere in the entire palace was colder than a snowy day. Everyone walked lightly, for fear of disturbing the two masters and making them even more unhappy.
