Senna suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell down.
Xiao Ling'er hurriedly withdrew another force. It seemed that ordinary people could not withstand the two forces of mental control she exerted after reaching the maximum level.
He withdrew the rest of his mental energy, walked out the door, and saw the familiar food box placed at the door, and a warm feeling flashed through his heart.
During the time she was practicing, Yanran never disturbed her once, but only placed food at the door of her practice every day.
When I walked out of the yard, I found Ren Yanran practicing sword, Hanhan playing with building blocks, and two old women picking vegetables in the distance. The scene looked very warm.
"Sister Yanran." Xiao Ling'er called out.
Ren Yanran put away her sword and turned back, a look of joy on her face, "Ling'er, you're out?"
"Well, time flies so fast. It feels like only a few days have passed, but I didn't expect a month has already passed." Xiao Ling'er exclaimed.
Ren Yanran picked up Han Han and walked towards Xiao Ling'er, saying as she walked: "Ling'er, let's go home."
Xiao Ling'er knew that she must have something to tell her, so she nodded and followed her back to the inner hall.
"Sister Yanran, can you tell me what special things happened during this period?" Xiao Ling'er asked impatiently as soon as the two sat down.
"On the second day of your retreat, General Gu officially ascended the throne, announced it to the world, and exempted taxes for three years." Ren Yanran said cooperatively.
"This is really good news. I hope General Gu can be a good emperor." This is what Xiao Ling'er hoped for in her heart.
Then, Xiao Ling'er remembered an important thing she had forgotten. It was what Master Lan said that night, saying that he would arrange for someone to give Gu Yunting and the others a chronic poison.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ling'er asked anxiously, "Where is the Lan family?"
"Ah? What happened to the Lan family?" Ren Yanran didn't react for a moment.
Then he realized what was happening and replied, "Oh, the two sisters of the Lan family have been betrothed to others by the Emperor Gu..."
"I heard that many ministers submitted memorials saying that Miss Lan had been married to a former prince and was not worthy of marrying into the royal family again.
There were also people who criticized Censor Lan, saying that he did not teach his daughter well. Not to mention that the second daughter of the Lan family was just a concubine, the main reason was that someone saw her having an affair with the eldest son of the Shilang family of the Ministry of Rites.
The ministers strongly opposed the Lan family's two daughters marrying into the royal family, so the emperor had no choice but to issue an imperial decree to arrange marriages for the two young ladies.
Xiao Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. Fortunately, although she had forgotten about it, if the Gu Yunxiao brothers really married another woman home, she would not remind them again.
However, Xiao Ling'er was certain that the affairs of the two sisters must be related to the Gu Yunting brothers.
"Gu... The emperor hasn't chosen a concubine yet, right?" Xiao Ling'er thought of the substitute woman prepared by Master Lan, and asked again with some concern.
Ren Yanran replied: "No, I haven't heard the news."
"That's good."
Xiao Ling'er was really a little worried. She was afraid that Gu Hepeng would not be able to resist the temptation and be bewitched by the beauty outside.
Deep down, she didn't want the approachable Mrs. Gu to get hurt, as perhaps Gu Hepeng would have other women in the future.
However, substitute women are really disgusting, and many men like to do this, even though the real woman is still alive.
It's really disgusting.
"Ling'er, the Second Prince came to see you several times during your retreat, but he left after seeing you were cultivating. I wonder if he has something to ask you?"
Ren Yanran's voice interrupted Xiao Ling'er's chaotic thoughts. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
