Gu Qinlan had already anticipated that she wouldn't give up easily, and replied with a smile, "Please come with me, Fourth Prince's Consort."
The Prince Duan's mansion was already small, and its gardens were unremarkable, lacking even a pond. The style was extremely simple, and the entire mansion was situated on a flat, level surface. To welcome distinguished guests, the ground was specially renovated, leaving not a single snowflake or puddle to be found.
The Fourth Prince's Consort strolled around, feeling increasingly annoyed. This humble Prince Duan's residence was so thoughtful and meticulous in hosting guests; it was truly unnecessary!

"careful!"
Gu Qinlan reacted quickly, taking a step forward and using her own body as a cushion to catch the Fourth Prince's wife.
