Despite the intense hatred in her heart, she didn't show it at all on her face, and simply nodded.
"Fine, as long as you release Gu Jinxi, I will become your empress and give you all those blueprints."
Mo Junxing nodded, and then let Gu Jinxi go to Gu Jingchun's side.
After that, Gu Jingchun began to prepare for the wedding.
However, every time Mo Junxing came to see her, she could clearly see that the way he looked at Gu Jinxi was strange.
Those were eyes that truly held murderous intent.
Therefore, Gu Jingchun would never marry Mo Junxing, let alone put her son in danger.
However, Mo Junxing kept such a close watch on her that she had no chance of escaping.
Just then, the opportunity arose.
The Prime Minister's daughter, Li An'an, has been in love with Mo Junxing for many years.
In her eyes, the person Mo Junxing should go to most is herself.
Only she could become the Empress of the Great Qi.
After all, Mo Junxing treated her differently than he treated other women.
He had a bad temper, but he never lost his temper with Li An'an.
Because Li An'an knew Mo Junxing back when he was still a down-on-his-luck prince.
And every time she entered the palace, she would bring Mo Junxing all sorts of delicious food.
Perhaps because of this affection, Mo Junxing always treated Li An'an differently.
But then, Gu Jingchun appeared.
Initially, Li An'an did not take Gu Jingchun seriously.
After all, how could a widow with a child possibly become the Empress of the Great Qi?
How could someone as noble as Mo Junxing possibly look up to her!
However, she never expected that Mo Junxing not only took a liking to Gu Jingchun, but also actually wanted to marry her as his empress.
How could Li An'an not hate this?
So, one day, she went to see Gu Jingchun in person.
And I'm prepared to give her a good warning.
Unexpectedly, Gu Jingchun turned out to be a scheming person. She had only said a few words to her casually, but Gu Jingchun's eyes reddened and she burst into tears.
She was still nestled in Mo Junxing's arms, embellishing her story and giving him a lecture, which led to Mo Junxing scolding her for the first time.
Li An'an, who grew up in luxury and surrounded by maids, had never suffered such grievances.
So, after this incident, she became increasingly angry and prepared to teach Gu Jingchun a lesson.
She heard that Gu Jingchun took a carriage to the shop every day to check the accounts, so she secretly had someone sabotage Gu Jingchun's carriage and specially hired a few people to dress up as bandits, preparing to scare Gu Jingchun.
But for some reason, Gu Jingchun's carriage did not break down that day.
Just as she was angrily cursing the people around her for their incompetence, as the carriage hadn't even been damaged, a group of bandits stopped Gu Jingchun's carriage.
Hiding in the shadows, Li An'an thought, "Why do these bandits look so fierce and there are so many of them? It's strange."
The maid beside her said, "Miss, bandits are supposed to be fierce and menacing, and since it's a robbery, there should be a lot of them."
Li An'an couldn't help but glance at her.
"But are the servants in our household really that strong and fierce?"
The maid shook her head.
"Of course not."
After they finished speaking, the two looked at each other.
"Damn it, we've run into real bandits."
Li An'an was terrified.
She had intended to send someone to rescue Gu Jingchun, but just then, Gu Jingchun drove off in his carriage.
Seeing the bandits chasing after them, Li An'an gritted her teeth and immediately ordered someone to inform Mo Junxing.
Mo Junxing arrived quickly, but it was already too late.
Because Gu Jingchun was driving the carriage too fast, the carriage shaft broke off while it was running, and the carriage was thrown off the cliff.
At that moment, Mo Junxing watched helplessly as the carriage plunged off the cliff, using all his strength to try and grab the person.
But it was too late; they could only watch helplessly as the person fell.
What Mo Junxing didn't know at the time was...
Gu Jingchun had already made arrangements on the cliff face and at the bottom of the cliff.
When Gu Jingchun and Gu Jinxi fell off the cliff, they first grabbed the rope that had been prepared on the cliff face and were then pulled onto a small platform on the cliff.
Lanxin was waiting for her at the platform.
It doesn't matter if she doesn't grab the rope; there's a rope every so often on the cliff face. As long as she grabs one, Gu Jingchun will be saved.
It was because of this that Gu Jingchun was able to escape successfully.
She had only unwittingly dragged Li An'an into this mess, and she thought to herself that if she ever had the chance, she would repay this "kindness" in the future.
After faking his death with Gu Jinxi, Gu Jingchun immediately abandoned all his businesses in Daqi and returned to Dacheng.
Only then did she deliberately reveal her location so that the Marquis of Yong'an's residence could find her.
And so, I naturally acquired a new identity.
And this identity is high enough that even when Mo Junxing discovered the clues on the cliff, he never imagined that she would be the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Yong'an.
However, she still underestimated Mo Junxing.
Even though she's hiding in the palace, he still managed to find her.
However, she is no longer the Luo Yun Chu she once was.
So what if he's crazy? She will never sit idly by and wait to die again, and she will never let Mo Junxing hurt Gu Jinxi again.
Thinking of this, Gu Jingchun decided not to go to Wanhe Palace, but instead returned to Ning'an Palace first.
Now that Mo Junxing is coming, she needs to make proper plans and preparations.
Ning'an Palace.
By the time Gu Jingchun had arranged everything, it was already dark.
Gu Jingchun looked at the sky.
"Has His Majesty not returned yet today?"
Since Shen Hechuan ascended the throne.
He then stipulated that he must dine with Gu Jingchun every day.
At first, Gu Jingchun was not used to it.
However, Shen Hechuan insisted.
He claimed that he was too busy and if they didn't even eat together, they might not be able to see each other for several days.
This is something Shen Hechuan cannot tolerate.
In the end, Gu Jingchun agreed.
After a while, Gu Jingchun had gotten used to it.
Now that it's so late and Shen Hechuan still hasn't come over, she finally asked.
Upon hearing this, Lan Xin immediately said, "His Majesty just sent word that there is a banquet today, so he will not be dining with you. He hopes you will rest early."
Gu Jingchun nodded, then casually asked another question.
"What kind of banquet is this? Why would you hold a banquet out of the blue?"
Lan Xin shook her head.
"This...this servant doesn't know either."
The little eunuch who came to deliver the message didn't say much.
Gu Jingchun, however, vaguely sensed that something was amiss.
Because, given Shen Hechuan's personality, if he didn't come back, he would definitely explain why. Even if he didn't say it, the eunuch would make it clear.
At that time, Shen Hechuan said it was to avoid making Gu Jingchun worry.
However, Shen Hechuan is now deliberately concealing this banquet.
This means that something was amiss at the banquet.
