Overall it's not bad.
But now they have replaced the original with the new one and granted a marriage to a concubine's daughter. What can a concubine's daughter do?
Especially since this concubine's daughter is not liked by Gu Qingyun, it makes me angry just thinking about it.
"Fourth Prince, please wait a moment." It was someone close to the Queen. "The Queen asked the maid to tell the Fourth Prince that the marriage the Emperor has granted is a good one. She hopes the Fourth Prince will treat the General's daughter well. After all, the Crown Prince is well aware of the future Crown Princess's affairs."
The implication is that whether or not Gu Shijia has truly lost his innocence is no longer important.
The important thing is that the prince cannot tolerate a woman who has thoughts about other men in her heart, especially when this person is the prince's principal wife.
"Tell my mother." The Fourth Prince suddenly felt relieved. "This prince knows his limits and will not ruin the greater good for a momentary gain or loss."
"Yes." The little girl smiled and lowered her head. In the moment she lowered her head, she quickly and quietly said, "The old woman who examined Gu Shijia has been sentenced to death by the emperor."
Bei Ming Ye frowned slightly. He looked at the emperor's palace and knew in his heart that even if the emperor took the general's mansion's merits into consideration, it could not compare to the face of the royal family.
By then, the whole Shuzhou city was rumored to be hearing that the third lady of the general's mansion, Gu Qingyun's daughter Gu Shirou, was caught having an affair with the fourth prince Bei Mingye. The emperor learned that the two were in love and granted them marriage.
The eldest prince has done a great job in the tasks entrusted to him by the emperor. The only regret is that he cannot keep Nan Huazi.
Inside the Sifang Inn.
Chang'an walked closer and saw Bei Mingxuan and Bei Ming Yulan sitting in the best seats on the second floor.
In her previous life, in Chang'an's impression, she played with Beiming Yulan when she was a child, and their relationship was pretty good. Later, Beiming Yulan gradually became estranged from her, and then she married Beiming Ye, and until her death, she never saw Beiming Yulan again.
Chang'an didn't want to have too much conversation with them at this time and planned to go back to his room directly.
However, just as she walked up to the second floor and turned to go in one direction, she was blocked by a woman dressed as a servant.
"Master Nanhua, my young lady invites you."
Chang'an looked at the place the maid pointed, and it was Beiming Yulan.
Chang'an thought about it and realized that he had never come into contact with Beiming Yulan under the identity of Nanhuazi.
As for Bei Mingxuan, in order to avoid suspicion, he would not invite Nan Huazi. "I don't know, what's the matter with your young lady?"
"My young lady admires Master Nanhua and has specially invited you. Please do not refuse."
Chang An followed the servant to where Bei Ming Yu Lan was. She looked at Bei Ming Yu Lan and asked, "I wonder why Princess Lan asked me to come here?"
Bei Ming Yulan smiled. "I originally thought that since the young master had never seen me in the mansion, he must not know me. I didn't expect that Young Master Nanhua actually knew me. If I had known that, I wouldn't have made such a fuss and come all the way to see him today."
Changan sat down and she smiled, "When I was at your house, I was lucky enough to see the princess from afar, so I know."
"Young Master is a straightforward person." Bei Ming Yulan said directly, "Lan'er, I will speak directly here."
Changan nodded.
"Lan'er knows that the young master doesn't like the hustle and bustle of Shu City.
Therefore, I have specially prepared a quiet place for you, and I hope you will stay and teach Lan'er as my master. "Beiming Yulan was simple-minded and saw that Nan Huazi did not refuse immediately.
She was happy and took out a key that she had prepared long ago. "This is the quiet place that Lan'er prepared for you, sir. I hope you will not dislike Lan'er and accept her as your student."
Chang'an didn't speak immediately. She looked at Bei Mingxuan who was drinking thoughtfully.
What he was thinking about in his heart was Princess Lan's intention behind keeping him.
Although Princess Lan is a simple-minded woman, how simple can children raised in the royal family be?
After all, Nan Huazi was best known for his scheming, and his most successful move was pushing a prince who had nothing onto the throne.
Princess Lan looked at Nan Huazi's eyes, fearing that he might be hesitant, so she explained, "This is Lan'er's ninth uncle, Bei Mingxuan. Don't worry, Master Nanhua. Uncle Jiu is not a meddlesome person. This princess and Uncle Jiu can be considered childhood sweethearts."
Chang'an glanced at Bei Mingxuan who had been drinking without saying anything, and thought of the childhood sweetheart that Bei Ming Yulan mentioned. He couldn't help but want to laugh out loud, especially when he saw a strange look flash across Bei Mingxuan's face when he heard these four words.
"What's wrong?" Princess Lan saw Nanhuazi remained silent for a long time. "I wonder if Master Nanhua is still dissatisfied with something?"
"I'm always dissatisfied with things that don't go my way," Chang'an said. "My Lady, have you ever considered whether it would be beneficial or harmful for your father if I, Nan Huazi, stayed with you?"
Bei Ming Yulan was clever, but her mind was rather simple. "If the young master stays, the name Nan Huazi can no longer be used externally. Lan'er promises that only Lan'er and Uncle Jiu will know of the young master's existence. Not even Lan'er's parents will know."
Chang'an raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but glance at Bei Mingxuan. Could it be that the relationship between this person and him is so good?
She looked at Princess Lan and Bei Mingxuan, and suddenly a thought flashed through her mind: Could Princess Lan be doing this for Bei Mingxuan?
Before she had time to think carefully about the thought behind it, it flashed through her mind and she slipped away.
"I appreciate Princess Lan's kindness. However, I really don't want to have any dealings with anyone in the court." Chang'an declined with a smile. "Nanhuazi, please don't disturb Princess Lan and the Ninth Prince's leisure time."
After saying that, Changan stood up and left.
It was not for any other reason, but Bei Mingxuan used the art of transmitting sound into the ears to tell Chang'an that the people from the Taiwei Mansion wanted to kill her and had ambushed her in his guest room.
"Young Master..." Princess Lan looked at Nan Huazi leaving with an unhappy look on her face.
"Lan'er." Bei Mingxuan, still a little tipsy, slowly rose from his seat. "You lost this bet with Uncle Jiu. Remember to get him the best wine."
Bei Ming Yulan finally withdrew her gaze from Nan Huazi. "Lan'er accepts the bet and admits defeat. The best wine from Jiuxiangfang will be delivered to Uncle Jiu's residence tomorrow. However, Lan'er wanted to keep Nan Huazi for Uncle Jiu, and you don't care at all."
"Don't act silly anymore, you'll kill your Uncle Nine. If it weren't for the wine, I wouldn't let you act silly." Bei Mingxuan said as he walked out.
"How could Lan'er bear to harm Uncle Jiu?" Princess Lan said with a look of grievance. "Uncle Jiu always says that."
Bei Mingxuan pretended not to hear and was supported by Fu Lin as he walked out of the Sifang Inn.
