Chapter 20 False Pregnancy



When Chunhua and Xiayu saw Gu Yufei returning, they couldn't help but burst into tears and hugged the young lady they had been thinking about so much with tears and snot.

Only at this moment did Gu Yufei truly feel that she was home. She had been eating irregularly for a while and had lost a lot of weight.

Gu Yunfei's injuries were almost healed, so he wanted to go back to the military camp, but his father disagreed, so he could only continue to recuperate at home. Gu Yufei could understand Gu Xiang's feelings as a father. It was normal for him to worry about his two children being in trouble one after another.

Gu Yufei has also recently been experiencing vague memories of her original self. Of her brothers, she has the best relationship with Gu Yunfei, who has doted on her since childhood. He is upright, brave, and has a passionate patriotic heart.

Gu Yunfei knew that it was his sister who rescued him, and he felt even more grateful to Gu Yufei. During the period of recuperation, the two of them would go to the teahouse together from time to time and had time to chat.

These days have been comfortable and pleasant.

Here, Fu Xiuqi was preparing to propose marriage to the emperor.

The emperor is wary of Gu Yunfei's military power, and he now has numerous supporters both inside and outside the court. Prime Minister Gu possesses wisdom, Gu Yunfei commands military power, and the Gu family's influence is immense, so great that it threatens the emperor. As the saying goes, "a tall tree attracts the wind," and with the Gu family's children still unmarried, their marriages could even affect the fate of the nation.

This was the reason why Gu Yufei's brothers hadn't been engaged yet. Therefore, the Emperor might not agree to Fu Xiuqi and Gu Yufei's marriage. The Emperor was worried that military power would fall into the hands of others, and he had been trying to find a way to take it back.

Fu Xiuqi had to find a better reason.

When Fu Xiuqi asked Gu Yufei this question, she was shocked by her answer. Gu Yufei actually suggested getting pregnant before marriage! In ancient times, a woman doing this would be looked down upon. Did Gu Yufei really have to sacrifice her dignity to marry him? Fu Xiuqi wondered.

But Gu Yufei thought so. As long as she could survive, it would be fine. Face and other things were not important.

Fu Xiuqi repeatedly stated that if she revealed her pregnancy before marriage, it would not only affect her reputation, but also her future divorce and remarriage. It would be difficult for her to find a good family to marry into.

"This method is the best at the moment. The appearance of a young lady like this in the Gu Mansion, which has an impeccable image, will have some impact on my father's reputation. But some people just want to see this, such as the emperor."

"Miss Gu knows quite a lot." Fu Xiuqi stared at Gu Yufei with his black eyes, trying to see through her heart.

Gu Yufei turned her head and continued, "I'm not only helping you, I'm also helping my father. So I'm willing to do this."

"I'll find a chance to tell my father tonight."

"Okay, I'll wait for your news."

After saying goodbye to Fu Xiuqi, Gu Yufei returned to the Gu Mansion. She called Chunhua and Xiayu and asked them to prepare a lot of ingredients. She wanted to cook a good meal tonight and have a good chat with her father.

Prime Minister Gu is attending the morning court today.

Seeing her father admiring the flowers in the courtyard, Gu Yufei seized the opportunity and said, "Father, I have something important to discuss with you."

Seeing his daughter coming over, Gu Xiang's face was full of love: "My precious daughter, what do you want now? Come, tell me."

"Father still understands me." Gu Yufei took her father's hand as usual, and the smile on her little face was as bright as a flower.
