Chapter Twenty-Two Warning
There was a sentence written on the paper.
Lu Lingjun: "You are not allowed to touch anyone else, whether they are men or women."
After Gu Yanjing finished reading that line of text, it immediately transformed into an ice-blue phoenix, rubbing against Gu Yanjing's fingertips in a shameless manner, and then circling around them.
Gu Yan's face darkened in surprise, and he swept his sleeve, scattering the slick, icy phoenix.
Far away in the celestial realm, Lu Lingjun realized that the wisp of spiritual consciousness had been scattered. He couldn't help but move his fingertips to feel the delicate touch of the spiritual consciousness, and then he couldn't help but kiss his fingertips.
His Majesty's temper is getting worse and worse; so many people in the Linglong Tower haven't been able to cultivate their character much.
"Gu Congxin, get in here. Go check on that fake Gu Shiyue." Gu Yanjing called Gu Congxin in and then sent the black phoenix away.
Before you knew it, another month had passed. Gu Shiyue had been replaced, demoted to a commoner, and released from prison.
People doubted that the Gu Shiyue who went back with the King of Qi was a fake, after all, Gu Shiyue's face had long been disfigured.
The person is currently in the palace, imprisoned in the Cold Palace, which is inhabited by a group of mad women. Gu Shiyue has no idea how the person is doing now.
Gu Yanjing yawned, waved his hand, and arranged to marry the daughter of the Nan family as empress the next day.
In the Nan family, Nan Wan, who had already resigned herself to her fate, sat under a tree, followed by twelve maids and servants, not only to serve her but also to guard her and prevent her from escaping.
"Miss, it's time for your meal." An old nanny entered with an air of superiority, looking at Nan Wan sitting in front of the mirror, feigning humility and subservience.
"Hmm." Nan Wan suddenly felt her nose itchy and habitually rubbed it, but was slapped hard by an old woman holding a branch behind her.
“Miss, as a lady of noble birth, you should not be so rude,” the old nanny said in a cold voice.
Nan Wan shuddered from the slap. Although she was scared, she forced herself to sit up straight, remembering the rules.
Several elderly nuns who taught the local religious sect looked at Nan Wan with obvious disdain in their eyes.
Although they were sent to instruct this woman who was about to become the mother of the nation, she was too weak-willed and utterly incapable of being helped.
Nan Wan was surrounded by a group of maids and servants as she went to eat, where the strict rules of not speaking while eating or sleeping were observed.
After she finished eating, the old lady of the Nan family came over with her entourage, carrying her wedding dress and phoenix crown.
The old lady stood there, and just looking at her sent chills down Nan Wan's spine.
For the past month, she had been tormented by the old lady to no end. Even though she tried her best to be discreet so as not to leave any marks on her, there were plenty of ways to deal with the underhanded tactics in the inner quarters of the house.
Nan Wan stood up, somewhat frightened, but still performed a standard courtesy: "Madam."
The old lady nodded in satisfaction: "You should call me Mother now, Wan'er."
Nan Wan called out in a dry voice, "Mother."
The old lady sat down: "Tomorrow you will be married into the palace."
Nan Wan was stunned: "What? I'm going to marry into the palace tomorrow? Who am I going to marry?"
What's going on? Wasn't she mistaken for Nan Wan'er from the Nan family and brought back like this? How come she's going to marry into the palace?
Damn it, she finally managed to crawl out of the palace.
“Naturally, she will marry the master of the palace, His Majesty the Emperor.” The old lady had a rare smile on her face.
Nan Wan recalled that arrogant yet chilling face, and her legs instantly went weak.
"I'm going to marry His Majesty, how can I marry His Majesty, I..." Nan Wan was about to burst into tears.
What's going on? This can't be done like this.
