Chapter 71: Being a Guest



Gu Huaizhi seemed completely unaware of how shocking his words would be. He ignored the probing glances of Sang Liwan and Jun Moyi and continued to speak to himself, "It seems that the princess has made many enemies in the capital and is surrounded by enemies. I wonder if the princess is interested in going to Shangyu?"

Shangyu was the territory under the jurisdiction of the Duke of Qi.

Hearing the implication in his words, Jun Moyi's face immediately darkened.

"Your Highness is overthinking this."

Gu Huaizhi, however, didn't take his words seriously. He gently waved his folding fan and said, "It's not up to His Royal Highness Prince An to decide this. We have to listen to what Princess An has to say."

Jun Moyi said in a low voice, "What the king means is what the princess means."

It was originally a declaration of sovereignty, but when it fell into Gu Huaizhi's ears, its meaning was completely changed.

He took a deep breath, first looked at Sang Liwan, then looked at Jun Moyi, and his eyes swept back and forth between the two of them several times, making Sang Liwan shrink his neck uncomfortably.

Jun Moyi was even more annoyed, "What are you looking at?"

Well, now even the 'prince' has lost his face.

Gu Huaizhi tutted his words twice, then pouted and shook his head, "Your Highness Prince An, I thought you were a broad-minded person, but I didn't expect that your princess doesn't even have the right to say a word in front of you."

There were so many flaws in this sentence that Sang Liwan didn't know where to start complaining. He could only move his lips and remain silent, then turned his head to look at Jun Moyi.

Jun Moyi was obviously very angry at his words. He gritted his teeth and said word by word: "I didn't."

Gu Huaizhi said confidently, "Then why do you say that your opinion is the princess's opinion? What if the princess has her own opinion?"

After saying that, he looked at Sang Liwan with a smile and said, "Don't you agree, Princess?"

Sang Liwan was suddenly called out and was a little at a loss for a moment. She looked at this person and then at that person, and felt that neither of them was a good person.

She didn't want to get involved in this mess, but unfortunately, she had no say in the matter at this moment.

Gu Huaizhi even pointed it out directly, "Princess, I'm asking you, what do you think His Royal Highness Prince An is doing?"

Tsk, this guy is really clueless.

Sang Liwan rolled her eyes silently. She really had no idea what Gu Huaizhi's question was.

It seemed that before Gu Huaizhi raised this question, she had never thought that she could live away from the capital.

Gu Huaizhi's words seemed to open a window for her, telling her that besides the capital, she could have other places to go.

only……

She glanced at Jun Moyi, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and nodded first, then shook her head. "The prince has invited me so kindly. If I have time, I must go and see it. Don't you agree, Your Highness?"

Jun Moyi was stunned. He raised his head and met Sang Liwan's bright eyes.

He almost immediately understood what Sang Liwan meant, and his heart was filled with joy. Even Gu Huaizhi's annoying face became much more pleasing to the eye.

Jun Moyi gently held Sang Liwan's hand, nodded, and looked at Gu Huaizhi sincerely, "Indeed, what the princess said is right. Since the prince has invited me so kindly, if I am free, I will definitely bring the princess to Shangyu as a guest."

The expression on Gu Huaizhi's face did not change, and he didn't seem surprised that Sang Liwan would interrupt him like this.

On the contrary, because of Sang Liwan's words, the interest in his eyes became even stronger.

"The princess is really eloquent."

Hearing this, Sang Liwan shook his hair and hummed, "I think I'm okay."

Gu Huaizhi: ...

When the three of them arrived at Prince An's Mansion, Jun Moyi was in no mood to personally entertain Gu Huaizhi, the uninvited guest, so he casually called over Butler Song and asked him to keep the guest and settle him down.

Anyway, this person came here on his own initiative, so there is no reason to say that I have not been hospitable enough.

Gu Huaizhi didn't care about Jun Moyi's neglect. In fact, from the moment he said that he wanted to go back to Prince An's Mansion with him, he knew that he would not get a good face here.

Therefore, Jun Moyi's attitude was completely within his expectations.

However, after listening to Jun Moyi's words, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"Your Highness Prince An..."

Jun Moyi turned around, his eyes already showing a hint of impatience, "So what?"

Gu Huaizhi glanced between Jun Moyi and Sang Liwan, his face thoughtful. He pointed at the sky and said, "It's so late already. Isn't Your Highness Prince An going back to his room with the princess?"

Sang Liwan was about to return to his yard when he suddenly stopped.

She subconsciously turned around to look at Jun Moyi, only to find that they were walking in two different directions.

Sang Liwan's heart tightened and he didn't say anything.

Jun Moyi also secretly hated himself for being careless, and became more certain that Gu Huaizhi must have some ulterior motive for following them back home.

If people knew that he and Sang Liwan did not sleep in the same room, it would probably cause a lot of trouble.

"Your Highness, you are worrying too much. I still have official business to attend to and am about to go to the study."

Gu Huaizhi made an expression of sudden enlightenment at the right moment, "So that's how it is. Your Highness Prince An is really working hard to leave the country."

Jun Moyi ignored his sarcasm and just said, "Your Excellency, you are so kind."

However, the next moment, Gu Huaizhi changed the subject, "It's just that such a big thing happened tonight, shouldn't the prince comfort the princess?"

As he spoke, his face showed disapproval.

Hearing his words, Sang Liwan's face froze, "Prince, have you forgotten that just now in the palace, the blood on my hands was no less than that on the prince's hands?"

What I mean is, she has killed so many people, why would she be afraid?

Upon hearing this, Gu Huaizhi's face did not show any embarrassment of meddling in other people's affairs. Instead, he looked at Sang Liwan with admiration, "The princess is indeed worthy of being from the general's mansion. She is so heroic and valiant, it really makes my eyes shine."

Jun Moyi: ...

Sang Liwan: ...

Gu Huaizhi smiled, looked at Jun Moyi and said, "Official duties are endless. Your Highness should go back and spend some time with the Princess."

His words seemed to be doing it for your own good.

Sang Liwan knew that this matter was no trivial matter. It would be fine if it happened to the people in the palace, but now there was an outsider in the palace. If Gu Huaizhi knew that he and his wife had always lived in separate courtyards, who knew what kind of trouble would arise.

Thinking of this, Sang Liwan raised his eyes and looked at Jun Moyi, "Your Highness, what the prince said makes sense. It's so late, you should go to bed early."

Jun Moyi's eyes were slightly deep.
