The shadow turned and walked out. The Sixth Princess gave Gu Zhi and Liu Suan a look, nodded subtly, and walked over.
The Sixth Princess's actions were clearly intended to help Liu Suan and Gu Zhi out of a predicament, allowing them to have a private conversation.
Shadow actually stood five meters away, a full five meters, listening to the Sixth Princess speak, but his eyes were fixed on Liu Suan.
Gu Zhi gritted her teeth, "This guard is quite loyal!"
"He and his sister depend on each other for survival. His sister is now a palace maid of Consort Hui, and her life is in the hands of Consort Hui and His Majesty," Liu Suan said calmly.
Gu Zhi's fiery temper flared up again instantly, the anger that hadn't been extinguished yet.
“Your mother misses you, so she sent a maid to deliver a message and some things to you.” Gu Zhi pointed to Su Deng and Liu Suan. “You two talk here first, I’ll go find Li Hengzhao.”
She just left.
Only two people remained.
Su Dengwei paused for a moment, then said, "Liu Sangua."
Liu Suan pursed her lips, "You were able to have Gu Zhi bring you to see me, so you must have met my mother, right?"
Su Deng nodded.
A complex expression, along with a barely perceptible pain and longing, appeared on Liu Suan's face, which seemed like that of an immortal, devoid of desire. "Is my mother... alright?"
Su Deng said, "She's fine."
“It’s not convenient to talk here. Have Gu Zhi take you to the palace tomorrow night. Shadow won’t be there,” Liu Sangua said succinctly.
"Run! Where do you think you're going!"
"Gu Zhi! I am the Crown Prince! The Crown Prince of this dynasty!! You dare to hit me! I will appeal to His Majesty and have your entire Gu family executed!"
"Go ahead and sue! Come on, I'll take you to the palace right now to sue!"
At this moment, Gu Zhi pulled the Crown Prince out from inside, and the two walked over noisily.
Gu Zhizhen struck the Crown Prince, but she was skilled in martial arts and knew where to hit without leaving any marks or crippling effects.
After all, he was the Crown Prince, so even when she was angry, she still had to be careful.
Even if she were relaxed, the Crown Prince, with his delicate and precious body, couldn't withstand it.
"You keep complaining to His Majesty. How old are you? You're the Crown Prince, and you still go to your father to complain about everything. You really have no backbone."
"Gu Zhi! Let me tell you, if you continue like this, I'll settle accounts with your parents! You shrew! I'd rather die than marry you!"
"I don't want to get married yet. You'd better go and complain to His Majesty or the Empress Dowager..."
The two argued fiercely for a long time, but the crown prince ultimately lost and left after uttering a series of harsh words.
Meanwhile, Liu Sangua also left with his bodyguards.
The Crown Prince, the future emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty!
Who dares to fight?
If anyone shows the slightest disrespect, they'll lose their head.
Gu Zhi, that girl, never respects the Crown Prince. She catches him and tries to teach him a lesson every few days.
Unfortunately, the Empress, the Empress Dowager, and the Emperor all turned a blind eye.
Having vented her anger by giving the Crown Prince a good scolding, Gu Zhi felt refreshed. When Su Deng told her to bring her to the palace again tomorrow night, she raised an eyebrow and said, "Why wait until tomorrow?"
She pulled Su Deng directly to the Sixth Princess who hadn't left yet. "Princess, this is my good friend Su Deng. She has something to discuss with Liu Suan. Shadow has been watching her the whole time, and she didn't finish speaking just now. Do you think you could bring her into the palace so she can talk to Liu Suan when she has time?"
Although the sixth princess was young, she was not without brains. She looked her over, her attitude was dignified, but her expression was very dignified.
"Sister Gu, I know you're usually unreliable. You hit the Crown Prince because you felt wronged and sad that you were forced to marry him as the Crown Princess, and you wanted to vent your anger."
I do like Liu Suan and am willing to help him with small things, but what if this person does something in the palace…”
She could tell that this Su Deng was no ordinary person; if she entered the palace, there would be assassination attempts or other incidents.
"Jiarou." Hearing her say that, Gu Zhi also called her name seriously, "You know me best. If my Gu family wanted to rebel, we wouldn't have waited until now to do all this. This is Liu Suan's mother's adopted daughter. She hasn't seen Liu Suan for a year, so..."
"I understand." The Sixth Palace Master looked deeply at Su Deng and said to Gu Zhi, "I can bring her into the palace, but you will have to bear the consequences."
Gu Zhi patted her chest and assured, "I'll take responsibility for everything."
Su Deng's expression shifted slightly, and she raised her eyes, "Aren't you afraid that I really am going to the palace to carry out an assassination?"
Gu Zhi laughed and said, "Then I hope your assassination is on time, and that you successfully assassinate that emperor!"
"Shh! Keep your voice down!" The Sixth Princess stepped forward and covered her mouth. "If someone hears this, they'll accuse the Gu family of treason!"
Gu Zhi scoffed, "Alright, I'll head back now."
The Sixth Princess nodded and called for Su Deng to come with her.
Su Deng: "..."
One second he's issuing a warning, the next he's saying he'll assassinate someone's father in front of them.
This princess seems a bit off.
"Sister Gu is just like that. I like her very much and I'm quite close to her."
On the way, the Sixth Princess suddenly spoke up, “You probably don’t know, but she has a sweetheart who is a soldier on the frontier. They have been through thick and thin together and were originally going to be together for life. However, His Majesty issued an imperial decree to make her the Crown Princess, and her sweetheart was made a general and will be stationed on the frontier forever.”
“They could resist, but the price of resistance would be too high—the entire Gu family, the lives of countless soldiers, and even the people of the two border cities. They are all people of righteousness, and naturally they cannot disregard so many innocent people for their own selfish reasons. They have no choice but to marry.”
"If His Majesty hadn't aged, he might have truly angered the Gu family, and the person who would have married her would have been His Majesty, not the Crown Prince."
"Everyone in the palace knows that making Gu Zhi the Crown Princess is actually an insult to her, because the Crown Prince is of poor character, but the status of the Crown Prince makes him extremely noble."
