Xiao Yan laughed as he spoke, "Your in-laws are really concerned about my nephew's wife, they're just afraid you'll bully her."
Gu Linchao paused, recalling the time he went to the Wen residence to pick up Wen Nongnong after returning from the border. Madam Xu had said the same thing as Wen Tingyun, and it seemed that she was genuinely worried that Wen Nongnong might suffer some grievances in the Prince's residence.
Although Wen Shiqing didn't say anything just now, it was clear that he was worried.
Wen Nongnong comes from a good family and has a family that loves her very much.
Throughout the Wen family mansion, apart from Old Madam Wen who was somewhat clueless, everyone else was very kind...
"So gloomy, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Yan suddenly chuckled mischievously. "You're not thinking about my nephew's wife, are you?"
Gu Linchao gave him a cool glance.
Xiao Yan stopped laughing, looking at his tense face, and couldn't help but say, "I have to say, you really have no fun at all. You're a year younger than me, but you live like a wretched old man." As he spoke, he leaned closer and said with a smile, "Hengzhi, I'll take you to a great place. I guarantee you'll be so happy you won't want to leave. Let's go."
Gu Linchao stared at him for a moment, then suddenly raised the whip in his hand and lashed it hard against the rump of the horse beneath him.
The horse neighed loudly, raised its front hooves high, and galloped forward like a madman, carrying Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan's handsome face turned pale with fright. He gripped the reins tightly, turned around, and roared, "Gu Linchao, I'm not finished with you..."
Gu Linchao ignored him, pulled on the reins, turned his horse around, and headed towards the Regent's Palace.
Back at the Prince's residence, he had just sat down when Lü Qiao came in carrying a stack of papers.
"Your Highness, these are the scriptures that the Princess Consort copied today. Please take a look."
Gu Linchao took the papers and casually flipped through a few, discovering that Wen Nongnong's handwriting had clearly improved compared to when she first started.
At first, the handwriting looked like a dog's scratch, making it hard to look at, but now it's becoming more and more elegant.
The corners of his mouth twitched almost imperceptibly, and a faint smile appeared in his dark eyes.
Thinking of what he had said to the Wen family at the palace gate, he paused, put down the sutra in his hand, and said to Lü Qiao, "Considering that the princess has shown remorse during this period, starting today, the princess is hereby released from confinement and will no longer need to copy sutras."
Green Fairy was overjoyed and quickly said, "Thank you, Your Highness." Now, Miss is finally free. Miss will be very happy when she finds out.
Agarwood Courtyard.
Wen Nongnong was squatting on a chair, copying scriptures.
She planned to copy tomorrow's copy as well, so she could sleep in.
However, Lü Qiao brought back news that Gu Linchao had lifted the ban on her and that she no longer needed to copy scriptures.
She paused for a moment, and the ink-soaked brush in her hand fell onto the paper with a "smack," quickly spreading into a large blot of ink.
"Damn it, why didn't Gu Linchao tell me sooner? I had to copy so many extra papers..." She grabbed a stack of papers she had already copied and was extremely annoyed.
Lü Qiao comforted her, "Although Miss has copied more scriptures, at least the ban has been lifted, and Miss no longer has to stay cooped up in the courtyard."
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong's face lit up with a smile again. "That's true." With that, she jumped off the chair, put on her shoes, and ran out.
"Miss, Miss..." Green Fairy hurriedly followed.
Wen Nongnong went straight to the Prince's mansion's large garden.
Many varieties of precious flowers are planted there. In springtime, the flowers bloom in profusion, creating a beautiful and colorful scene.
Although she went to the palace yesterday and secretly went out to play the day before yesterday, she didn't have time to properly stroll around the garden.
Now that the ban has been lifted, she strolled around the garden, enjoying the flowers and fish.
