Xie Yihui suddenly called Rong Zhen, and Gu Yunru looked at them hesitantly.

"So, this is His Royal Highness Prince Zhao, who has made outstanding military achievements. Bingyan is honored to meet you." Xie Bingyan turned around with a charming look on her face and walked towards Rong Zhen. If you didn't know, you would think that these two were old lovers.

"Someone was calling you, didn't you hear it?" Gu Yunru winked at him. Rong Zhen pretended to be calm and looked at Xie Bingyan who was walking towards him with a glass of wine.

"I wonder if His Royal Highness Prince Zhao would do me the honor? Bingyan would like to pay a tribute to His Royal Highness."

Xie Bingyan stood in front of him gracefully, like a fairy walking out of a painting.

Rong Zhen did not make any unnecessary movements, he just took the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. Xie Bingyan seemed to be still unsatisfied, and there was a strange soft light in her eyes as she looked at her, as if she was an old friend she had known for a long time. Gu Yunru was best at reading people's micro-expressions, and she could tell from Xie Bingyan's eyes that she must admire Rong Zhen very much.

"Your Highness, do you know the five-step poem?" Xie Bingyan is both beautiful and talented, and I didn't expect that she also knows a little about poetry. If such a woman were in modern times, she would have become a hot star long ago.

Gu Yunru looked up at Xie Bingyan the whole time, watching her speak so sweetly.

From a distance, the two of them seemed like a perfect match. The woman by Rong Zhen's side should be like Xie Bingyan, dignified, generous, calm and elegant.

"I know a thing or two." Rong Zhen put down the cup and sat down, as if he couldn't leave, and ignored Gu Yunru beside him.

Seeing that the two were talking happily, Gu Yunru quietly slipped away. Outside the quiet palace, only the patrol team was seen. Gu Yunru dodged all the way to avoid being discovered.

Looking at the incredibly beautiful Xie Bingyan, Gu Yunru had a very strange thought in his mind.

Not knowing when this complicated thought would dissipate, she walked forward alone, but felt a desolate heart. As she walked, she saw an orange-red figure, it was Gu Junyao.

"Oh, it's my sister. I didn't expect to meet you here."

Gu Junyao's smile was as beautiful as a flower, but her eyes were piercingly cold, as if she was a stranger.

"Hello, Miss Gu." Gu Yunru bowed stiffly like a robot, then slowly raised his head and looked straight at her.

"You're welcome. You and I are sisters." Gu Junyao was just about to go to the banquet, but unexpectedly she met Gu Yunru on the way. Naturally, she wanted to catch up with her.

"Sister, congratulations, you will soon become the Princess of Zhao." Gu Junyao came to her side with a sarcastic smile on her lips, and even a hint of contempt in her eyes.

"Thank you for your concern, sister. I hope you will be more tolerant to me in the future."

"Of course. You are my sister after all. Wouldn't it be awkward for two sisters to say this?" Gu Junyao's smile was extremely bright and dazzling. Lan'er beside her was carrying something that looked like a treasure box, and no one knew what gift she was going to offer.

"I almost forgot that we have to go to the banquet. It's so late now. Sister, don't run around alone. The palace is not peaceful recently." Gu Junyao kindly reminded. Seeing her elegant figure walking away, Gu Yunru made a face at her back and continued to walk forward.

"Miss, Miss..." Qingxing caught up with him from behind at some point. Gu Yunru slowly stopped and raised his middle finger to his lips.

"Keep your voice down, be careful not to be heard!" Gu Yunru winked at her and continued to move forward. Unknowingly, they arrived near Cheng'en Hall. It was so late, and the people from the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice had not yet withdrawn and were guarding outside the palace.

"Miss, what are you doing here? Are you here to see Lord Cheng?" Qing Xing looked at her in confusion.

"Shh, I'm here to help him solve the case!" Gu Yunru's eyes flashed with a deep light, his eyeballs rolled around, and he ran inside with Qingxing.

Rong Zhen, who was in the hall, discovered that the woman beside him was missing after dealing with Xie Bingyan for a while.

Damn it! This woman always runs around without listening to him.

Just when he was about to ask the Emperor for permission to go out and look for Gu Yunru, Gu Junyao came to the hall in a swagger.

"Your Highness, long live the emperor." Gu Junyao bowed to him gracefully and then offered a rare treasure.

"What's in this treasure box?"

The emperor's deep, dark eyes slowly looked towards the treasure box behind her.

"Your Majesty, this is a rare treasure. The mermaid pearl is said to be made from the tears of mermaids. It can emit colorful light at night. It was discovered by my father on the way to Jiangnan, so he asked his daughter to bring it back to Beijing to present to the emperor."

"Gu Yan?" The emperor almost forgot about the old guy Gu Yan. He didn't expect that although he was in Jiangnan, he was still concerned about the court. He was indeed loyal. It would be a bit unfair to exile him again.

"It's my father. Now that my sister is back and the emperor doesn't seem to blame her, why not issue an imperial decree to allow my father and mother to return to Beijing?" Gu Junyao boldly made this request, but the expressionless empress dowager on the side had a strange look on her face, and a sharp and cold light swept towards her.

"How dare you make such an ungrateful request at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet? It seems that the emperor has spoiled you!"

The Queen Mother was a little furious. Gu Junyao was so scared that her legs went weak. She knelt on the ground with a plop. Her eyes were filled with tears and she shook her head and said, "Queen Mother, calm down. Junyao didn't mean that. It's just that it's a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. I really miss my father and mother..."

After saying this, tears welled up in his eyes.

The emperor was heartbroken when he saw this. Gu Yan and his wife had not committed any serious mistakes, so it was understandable to call them back.

"Forget it. It's enough for these two to relax in Jiangnan. I will issue an order to call them back immediately. Promote Gu Yan to the first rank official position, and make him a Grand Tutor. And promote Gu Cairen to Baolin."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar, which showed how much the emperor loved Gu Junyao.

Xie Bingyan had been looking at the person not far away. Seeing that he was concentrating on the empty seat next to him, she thought he was looking for the eldest daughter of the Gu family.

Seeing that Rong Zhen was finally eager to go out, he winked at Mingyue beside him, and the two of them followed quietly.

Xie Yihui noticed his daughter's every move, and an imperceptible arc appeared at the corner of his mouth. Everything was under control.

Xie Bingyan pretended to meet him by chance and was moved by Rong Zhen's clear and dark eyes.

"Your Highness Prince Zhao."

Xie Bingyan bowed to him. Rong Zhen put his hands behind his back and was about to go forward to support her, but suddenly he remembered something and stopped.
