Chapter 410 You Are Different
She poured another cup of tea for Jiang Chongfan and then spoke softly.
"Grandfather, don't be angry."
"No matter how bad the current situation is, it won't be worse than when we were in Jiangshan, right?"
Shen Qingshan nodded.
"Yes, father, Mingwan is right. His Majesty has now allowed you to sit in court. This is a great honor that you have never received before!"
Jiang Chongfan shook his head.
"No, from the day we returned to Tiandu, it meant that we were no longer the same as before."
"Our Jiang family is no longer what it used to be."
"What will happen in the future depends on the attitude of His Majesty."
"So, Wan'er, no matter what, you must enter the palace."
"Even if I can't become the queen, I must enter the palace. As long as I can gain the favor of His Majesty, our Jiang family will truly be considered back."
"Yeah, okay."
Jiang Mingwan nodded in response, but her lowered eyes hid the expression in her eyes.

Chen Hechuan's insistence on making Gu Jingchun the queen caused an uproar in the palace after the court session.
Although many ministers in the court had already expected that Chen Hechuan would definitely make Gu Jingchun the queen.
However, other people in the palace did not know.
After all, in their view, Gu Jingchun grew up in the countryside, and now his mother's family was killed or exiled for treason.
Even if she was lucky and her son was made the crown prince, it would be difficult for him to become the queen.
Therefore, when this news came out, everyone was shocked and immediately began to seek out Gu Jingchun to show their courtesy.
Gu Jingchun was extremely annoyed, so he asked Lan Xin to pack up her things, and then went to inform the Queen Mother. He then sent someone to inform Chen Hechuan and Gu Jinxi, and then he took Chen Hechuan's token and left the palace.
After leaving the palace, Gu Jingchun went straight back to his house.
So when Chen Hechuan finished dealing with all the government affairs and wanted to find Gu Jingchun, he found that the hall was empty.
Gu Jinxi also got the news and hurried to the palace where Gu Jingchun was. Looking at the empty hall, he also sighed.
The two of them looked at each other and saw the word "pitiful" in each other's eyes.
Even after returning to his own house, Gu Jingchun did not feel much relieved.
She had just packed her things and hadn't even sat down when Ye Wenxi hurried to her door.
After Gu Jingchun returned to the palace, he had not yet met Ye Wenxi. When he heard the news, he did not even take a rest and immediately went to meet her.
She had just stood at the door when she saw Ye Wenxi, wearing a moon-white gown, slowly walking in.
He looked even thinner than before, and his face had a more melancholy look.
This melancholic temperament adds a bit of charm to him, making people want to get closer and explore him.
Of course, Gu Jingchun didn't have this idea. She was just surprised by the changes in Ye Wenxi, so she asked, "You seem to be different from before."
Ye Wenxi smiled and nodded.
"People, nothing stays the same."
“Life is a process of growth and change.”
Gu Jingchun also smiled when he heard this.
"From what you said, it seems that you have grown a lot in the past few months?"
"certainly."
He looked at Gu Jingchun lovingly.
"You've grown up too."
Gu Jingchun was surprised for a moment and couldn't help but look down at himself.
"Me? I've grown up too?"
"Where have I grown? Why haven't I noticed it?"
Ye Wenxi smiled.
"You are not the same as before, both in appearance and in heart."
"Perhaps you haven't even realized it yourself. You didn't believe in love before, but now you are already addicted to it."
Gu Jingchun laughed out loud when he heard this.
I suddenly understood.
During this period, she has indeed changed a lot, from not trusting Chen Hechuan at the beginning to trusting him completely now.
It is indeed a change.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun picked up the teapot and poured tea for Ye Wenxi himself.
"You are right about that."
"This... is indeed beyond my expectations."
"However, I am not indulging in love, but enjoying love."
"After all, love does make me happy, and I just like to be happy."
As she spoke, she looked at Ye Wenxi again.
"Don't you want to try?"
Gu Jingchun became interested.
"Come to think of it, in all these years, I haven't heard that you have any interest in any woman.
Ye Wenxi paused, and there was a hint of bitterness in his smile.
"I...have no interest in this."
He paused, "In my opinion, love is not only happiness, but also bitterness."
Gu Jingchun: "Since it's bitter, you should throw it away as soon as possible."
Ye Wenxi paused slightly when he was about to serve the tea.
“I can’t bear to throw it away.”
His voice was very low and Gu Jingchun didn't hear it clearly. Seeing that Ye Wenxi wanted to drink tea, he quickly poured him some tea and didn't ask any more questions.
"Try it! This is the new osmanthus tea this year. I know you like it, so I brought it from the palace specially for you."
"Try it and see how it tastes. If you like it, take it all away later."
Ye Wenxi chuckled when he heard this.
"If Chen Hechuan knew about this, he would be furious."
Gu Jingchun smiled, but still subconsciously defended him.
"He's very narrow-minded. Don't bother with him."
Ye Wenxi looked at her and suddenly spoke.
"Jingchun, do you still remember when you first met me?"
Gu Jingchun smiled and said, "Of course I remember. If I'm not mistaken, that was probably the most miserable time for you."
His quota was taken by someone else, his mother was seriously ill, and he was severely beaten.
The young man with a straight back was bent and knocked down again and again. The last time, his spine was almost broken.
If he hadn't met Gu Jingchun, he might have just accepted his fate in this life.
A generation is buried in the dust and will never be able to turn things around.
His life would be cut short at that moment, and there would be no more ups and downs.
But at that time, Gu Jingchun appeared in front of Ye Wenxi like a god, and with a wave of his hand, he helped him solve all his problems.
It's as simple as moving your fingers.
At that moment, he was shocked.
So, he tried desperately, and after his mother passed away, he found Gu Jingchun and tried every means to get close to her, get close to her, and become her.
And it took so many years for them to move from a superior-subordinate relationship to the current relationship of relatives and friends.
The two are so familiar with each other that they can remember each other's preferences.
But unfortunately, it is stuck at this last critical step.
He was too inferior to dare to take a step forward, and after that, he never had another chance.
But Ye Wenxi also knew that he could not take this step now.
