The secret guards, who were acting as bystanders protecting the emperor, were secretly laughing their heads off.
So this guy who can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk is actually drunk after all. Look at the question he asked!
And his little daughter, she's quite clever and smart, but her confidence... emmm...
They decided that they must tell the Emperor about this interesting conversation tomorrow.
...
"What? The Emperor?" In the room of the mother and her two daughters, Gu Xin had gone to the kitchen to borrow tools to make hangover soup, leaving only the three time-traveling individuals.
"Yes, that's my guess. Lu Zheng isn't hiding from the emperor, but rather from the young man in black who serves the emperor. He warned me not to offend him, and that it would be best to gain the emperor's favor!" Gu Shouxin nodded.
"Hey? Doesn't the emperor usually have guards or something when he goes out? Aren't we afraid of being overheard if we say this so openly?" Cai Xiaolian said nervously, her voice becoming softer.
Now that she has come to terms with her time travel to ancient times, she feels it's best to avoid dealing with the emperor for the time being, given the absolute power of the monarch in this society.
Although this emperor seems unreliable and foolish, isn't it said that serving a ruler is like serving a tiger?
“They’re both drunk, and their room is far from ours. I just checked, and no one is eavesdropping. Don’t worry!” Gu Shouxin pulled Cai Xiaolian’s hand and patted it.
Gu Nian glanced at the two people's hands, then at her father.
How much must she have drunk? With the blessing of the jade beads, she was still able to grab her mother's hand right in front of her?
Cai Xiaolian didn't notice Gu Shouxin grabbing her hand at this moment, and quickly said, "Dad, when you and Xinxin were downstairs just now, Niannian told me that the man named Xue Qianyu is Niannian's husband in the book. He is good brothers with Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng got into a fight with Xue Qianyu because of what Xue Qianyu said about Xinxin's brothel background, and then they fell out."
Gu Shouxin looked at Gu Nian: "Is that so? No wonder you were staring at him! I thought you had your eye on him, and I even tried to get information out of him while we were drinking, planning to bring him back as your child husband!"
Gu Nian: "...There's no need for that! Dad, I don't want that kind of guy. He likes the old Gu Nian, the cool, aloof type who knows how to charm men. Do you think I'm like that?"
Gu Shouxin nodded in deep agreement: "Yes, no. Then let's rule him out and Dad will find someone for you later!"
Gu Nian: "...Are you drunk?! Dad, how much did you drink? If it weren't for that Xue guy there, I would have watched you drink."
Gu Shouxin grinned: "Not much, they tried to get me drunk! But I ended up getting drunk instead! This emperor will probably remember me for the rest of his life! Hahahaha..."
The mother and daughter exchanged a glance; well, they were drunk.
Cai Xiaolian then realized that her hand was being held tightly by this person. She silently tried to pull it out, but the person wouldn't let her move.
Cai Xiaolian glared at him: "Gu Shouxin, let go!"
Gu Shouxin shook his head: "No!"
The smile on his lips never faded!
Cai Xiaolian pinched his cheek: "Are you going to let go or not? Believe me or not, I'll pinch your cheek until it's swollen!"
Gu Shouxin was about to let go, but his ears twitched, and he continued to shake his head: "No! No! I won't let go! Niannian said that important things should be said three times! Holding hands is the first step, and it's very important, so I've said it four times, I won't let go!"
"Pfft!" Gu Nian finally couldn't help but laugh.
Her dad looks so cute when he's drunk!
Gu Nian clutched her stomach and asked with a smile, "Dad, holding hands is the first step, so what's the second step?"
