Chapter 252 Threatening Gu
In the evening at the Princess's Mansion, when Gu was feeling thankful that Shangguan Nanfeng did not come that day, she saw her personal maid Xiaomei rushing over here with an anxious look on her face.
Gu had just received the warm tea, but he no longer had the desire to drink it.
"Is the second prince here?" Gu lowered her voice and asked first when she saw Xiaomei running to her side, panting.
"Yes, madam, the second prince is here again, but this time, he comes directly to you." Xiaomei finally calmed down and told her what she had just seen in one breath.
"It's okay. We are not afraid. We will fight back whenever an enemy comes." After saying this, Gu gently put down the warm tea in her hand and raised her right hand. Xiaomei saw this and hurried forward to support him. Gu used the force to stand up.
"Mother-in-law, Feng'er comes to you today to set the wedding date." Shangguan Nanfeng saw Gu coming out of the room from afar, so he called out loudly.
When Gu heard Shangguan Nanfeng calling her mother-in-law, a look of impatience flashed across her face, but she was too far away and Shangguan Nanfeng did not see it.
"What is the Second Prince doing? Yue'er isn't married yet. I can't bear to be called mother-in-law." Gu waited for Shangguan Nanfeng to come in before pretending to be displeased and replied.
After all, he is now the elder and must behave properly and must not be overwhelmed by the second prince.
"Mother-in-law, please don't be angry. Feng'er was inconsiderate and did the wrong thing the other day. The concubine of the Li family really shouldn't have come here to anger Yue'er. Feng'er admits her mistake here."
Shangguan Nanfeng saw Gu turn around and walk towards the pavilion not far away, so he followed her and started to apologize.
After all, Shangguan Nanfeng still understood the principle of using courtesy before force.
"Humph, I heard rumors that you are going to marry Yue'er and that Miss Li at the same time. Is that true?"
When Gu saw Shangguan Nanfeng coming up to apologize, he had to swallow the words he had prepared before and implemented the second plan.
"Mother-in-law, it is indeed true." Shangguan Nanfeng naturally noticed the dissatisfaction in Gu's tone, but he would naturally not hide this matter.
"Are you deliberately humiliating Yue'er?" When Gu heard Shangguan Nanfeng's frank admission, she was stunned for a moment, but she reacted quickly.
"This is what Feng'er promised Miss Li, and it's not easy to change her mind." Shangguan Nanfeng said, looking at Gu with an apologetic look.
After all, marrying a principal wife and a concubine at the same time is indeed a bit embarrassing for Su Yue, the principal wife.
"No, I don't agree. If the Second Prince insists on marrying my colleague, then there is no room for negotiation on this marriage."
When Gu heard Shangguan Nanfeng's words, she felt relieved. If the second prince followed her wishes in everything, then time would be very difficult to delay.
"Mother-in-law, this is not up to you. I guess you still don't know why Yue'er accepted my betrothal gift?"
After hearing Gu's obvious refusal, Shangguan Nanfeng did not panic, but looked at Gu with a determined expression.
"What's the matter?" Gu was stunned. Before, Yue'er only said that she was coerced by the second prince, but she didn't say what it was. Now the second prince looked like this, as if he was sure that she would give in today.
"Your brother's life is now in Su Yue's hands." Shangguan Nanfeng first glanced around, and seeing that there were not many people, he spoke vaguely.
Then, he took out a ring and played with it in his hand.
Gu was stunned when she saw the ring in Shangguan Nanfeng's hand. She naturally recognized this ring.
Thinking of what Shangguan Nanfeng had just said, Gu's eyes brightened.
No wonder Yue'er accepted the betrothal gift. It turns out that the second prince is so despicable.
"Despicable!" After Gu squeezed out these two words from between his teeth, his aura suddenly weakened.
"It's not mean, it's just that I'm really in love with Yue'er and I can't control myself, so I came up with this idea."
Shangguan Nanfeng naturally didn't care much when he heard what Gu said. All he wanted now was to achieve his goal.
"So now, can we agree on the wedding date?" Shangguan Nanfeng looked at Gu with the eyes of a winner, certain that Gu would never refuse.
"When do you want to decide?" When Gu heard that Shangguan Nanfeng was threatening Yue'er with Gu Qingzhi's life, her heart was in turmoil.
Before leaving, Yue'er only said that she was going to solve a problem, but did not say where she was going.
If she contacts Shangguan Nanfeng again now, it is likely that Yue'er has gone to the border.
I just don't know if I arrived safely.
A trace of worry surfaced in her eyes, but was quickly suppressed by Gu. No matter what, she must not reveal her true identity.
"Ten days later will be a good day. Let's do it ten days later. What do you think, mother-in-law?" Shangguan Nanfeng said the date that had been set long ago. Although the words were inquiring, his tone was unquestionable.
"You are well prepared." Gu sneered with a hint of sarcasm.
"We must be careful not to be careless when marrying Yue'er." Shangguan Nanfeng naturally saw the sneer on Gu's face, but when he thought that Gu was really relieved now, he felt a lot more relieved and naturally didn't care much.
"Mother-in-law, since we have set the date for ten days later, I will go and inform Yue'er." Shangguan Nanfeng said, and without waiting for Gu's reply, he strode away with his entourage.
When Gu saw Shangguan Nanfeng leaving, she hurriedly followed him.
"Yuer told me a long time ago that she doesn't want to see you." Gu took a few more steps and then stood in front of Shangguan Nanfeng.
"You're going to marry me, and you still don't want to see me?" Shangguan Nanfeng chuckled and pushed Gu away casually, not caring much about what Gu said.
"You!" Gu was not paying attention for a moment and was pushed by Shangguan Nanfeng, causing her to stagger. By the time she could stand firm, Shangguan Nanfeng had already thrown her far away.
"Xiaomei, hurry up and follow me." Gu then quickly followed Shangguan Nanfeng.
"Has Yue'er behaved strangely recently?" Shangguan Nanfeng asked the four big men standing at the door as soon as he arrived at Xingyue Pavilion.
"In reply to the Second Prince, everything is normal." The leading man answered very quickly with a confident look.
After all, this morning they heard Miss Su Yue scolding Xiao He because her breakfast was not to her liking.
"That's good." Shangguan Nanfeng heard the answer he wanted and nodded with satisfaction.
"Yuer, can I see you?" Shangguan Nanfeng looked at the closed door and asked loudly.
But the only answer he got was silence.
"What's wrong?" Shangguan Nanfeng didn't hear a response and looked at the big men at the door suspiciously.
"This..." The four of them looked at each other, and then looked at Shangguan Nanfeng and shook their heads.
"Yuer, if you don't answer, I will take it as my consent." Shangguan Nanfeng said and walked towards the closed door.
"Stop! I've already told you that Yue'er doesn't want to see you. I can't always do whatever you want, right?" As soon as Gu arrived, she saw Shangguan Nanfeng trying to push the door. She was so scared that her heart almost jumped out.
"I just want to see Yue'er, is that not possible?" Shangguan Nanfeng's eyes flashed with impatience. This Gu was really too annoying.
"Second Prince, the Emperor urgently summons you."
Just as Shangguan Nanfeng was about to push the door and Su Qing was about to speak inside, Shangguan Nanfeng's confidant hurried over.
"What's the matter?" Shangguan Nanfeng's hand was about to touch the door frame, but he paused, with doubt flashing in his eyes.
Why did my father summon me at this time?
"I don't know, it seems the third prince is also here." The servant lowered his head and told what he knew.
"Go to the palace." Shangguan Nanfeng, who was originally planning to meet Su Yue first, heard that Shangguan Nanxing was also in the palace, so he put down his hand that was about to push the door.
Turned around and walked out.
Just as he passed by Gu's company, he stopped.
"Mother-in-law, there are still ten days left. I don't believe that Yue'er doesn't want to see me every day."
