After returning home, Gu Xin washed up and sat down at her desk, opened the window, and waited for someone.
A moment later, the man in white appeared.
Looking at Gu Xin, who was dressed warmly, Bai Yi said, "You brat, it's only the end of October, it hasn't snowed yet! You're all bundled up like a ball. Be careful your brother Yuanyuan thinks you're fat!"
Gu Xin rolled her eyes at him: "Brother Yuanyuan would never dislike me! When I get to Kuncheng, I'll tell Brother Yuanyuan that you laughed at me for being fat, and I'll make him beat you up until you're fat!"
The woman in white said, "...Naive! Let me tell you, Li Shan, whom you hate the most, has been staying at the Third Prince's residence for quite some time now. Lu Zheng's spies have sent word that the Third Prince's wife has recognized her as her younger sister, and she has to recuperate at the Prince's residence! I don't have the ability to touch her at the Prince's residence!"
Gu Xin gritted her teeth: "I knew she did it on purpose! Humph, we were just a step too slow! I thought we could take our time, but now that we're leaving, she'll probably have already taken over the position of the Third Prince's consort by the time we come back! Is this Third Prince's consort an idiot? She actually helped the Third Prince take a girl into his household!"
Seeing her angry little face, Bai Yi chuckled: "The Third Prince's Consort isn't stupid; it's the Third Prince who's stupid. Just go find your Yuan Yuan brother in peace! We've got our hands on things in the capital; she won't be able to cause any trouble."
Gu Xin frowned: "Baiyi, that Third Prince is the Emperor and Empress's own son, how can he be so stupid! Should we stop him?"
The woman in white gave her a disdainful look: "Why are you trying to stop him? Everyone chooses their own path. He's stupid, and your attempts to stop him won't help. You might even accidentally expose yourself and make him trust Li Shan even more, leading him to do more stupid things. He's going to hell, not because we're pushing him, but because he chose it himself. You little brat, mind your own business. You're about to be exiled to the border, and you're still worrying about the imperial princes and grandsons. Are you crazy?!"
Gu Xin thought about it and realized that the Third Prince hadn't treated their family well.
She overheard her father and mother talking about how the third prince had taken advantage of her misfortune in court and had even been scolded by the emperor.
Gu Xin stopped talking about Li Shan and the Third Prince, and continued to ask, "What about Linglan and Li Muyan?"
The man in white said, "This place is really funny! When the Duke of Rong saw the people from the palace carrying Linglan to their house with the Emperor's decree, he was so angry that he wanted to go to the Empress Dowager to reason with her. Then Li Muyan made a sarcastic remark to him, saying, 'Grandfather just wants someone of equal social standing, right? This is Princess Linglan. She is not good enough for the heir apparent of the Duke of Rong's mansion. She can only be the heir apparent's concubine!' The Duke of Rong was so angry that he slapped Li Muyan."
Gu Xin's eyes lit up. If she wasn't having a good time, no one else wanted to have a good time either!
Seeing her excited expression, Bai Yi continued, "Then that very night, Li Muyan consummated his marriage with someone—it really was a wedding night!"
Gu Xin exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? I inflicted all those wounds on Linglan with my own knife! Her wounds probably haven't even healed yet! Isn't it said that the wedding night requires a lot of effort?"
Baiyi almost fell off the window: You even know this? No, no, we can't talk about this. Let's change the subject. This brat tells Lu Zheng everything. If she goes and asks Lu Zheng how Linglan, with such a serious injury, managed to consummate her marriage, and Lu Zheng asks, "How do you know she consummated her marriage?" the brat will say, "Baiyi told me!"
The woman in white was reminded of the fear she had felt from being tortured by Lu Zheng.
He quickly changed the subject, he was really afraid that Gu Xin would continue to ask, how did they consummate their marriage, and how much force they used!
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
