Gu Linchao's heart suddenly went into turmoil.
He turned his head away in a panic and said in a deep voice, "I'm not hungry, you eat it yourself." After saying that, he walked away quickly.
Seeing this, Wen Nongnong shrugged and lowered her head to eat.
Gu Linchao walked a little further away before stopping.
Does she even know what she's doing?
Didn't you realize that doing that was too intimate?
He pursed his lips.
He stood alone for a long time before his panicked heart gradually calmed down.
Only after making sure she had finished eating did we turn back.
When he walked back to the carriage, Wen Tingyun was leaning against it, whispering something to Wen Nongnong inside.
He had already changed out of the alluring exotic clothing he was wearing.
Upon seeing Gu Linchao approaching, Wen Tingyun immediately stood at attention and bowed to him, saying, "Greetings, Regent."
Gu Linchao's expression softened, and he said gently, "No need for formalities. Let's go together."
Wen Tingyun hesitated for a moment, looked at Wen Nongnong, and seeing her nod, said, "Alright, thank you for your trouble, Regent."
"We're all family, no need to be so polite," Gu Linchao said gently.
Wen Tingyun was somewhat surprised to hear this. He hadn't expected his brother-in-law, the regent, to be so kind and approachable, and to treat him like one of his own.
He was both surprised and somewhat pleased.
Wen Nongnong was somewhat surprised to hear their conversation.
She never expected Gu Linchao to treat her family so well.
At this moment, Gu Yi and Xiao Yan walked over.
“Uncle and Aunt, it’s getting late. Why don’t you stay at my residence for the night and return to the capital tomorrow?” Gu Yi suggested. Although he was afraid of his uncle, he felt more awe than fear. It was dark now, and traveling at night was not safe. He sincerely hoped that his uncle and aunt could stay at his residence for the night.
Gu Linchao originally planned to travel back to the capital overnight, but...
His gaze fell on Wen Nong Nong's slender shoulders. He paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Alright."
Gu Yi looked delighted. "Then I'll go ahead and let the servants tidy up the room."
"Mm." Gu Linchao nodded.
Gu Yi hurriedly said to Wen Nong Nong, "Aunt, then I will return to the manor to await Your Majesty's arrival."
Wen Nongnong was still wondering how Gu Linchao had gained another nephew when she heard this, she smiled and nodded, "Good nephew, thank you for your hard work."
Gu Yi: "..."
The other person was clearly two years younger than her, yet she had the nerve to call him her good nephew.
How could she say "good nephew" like that?
He realized that this imperial aunt was beautiful and well-behaved, but inside she was a restless and troublesome person.
Not only did she sneak off to Tunzhou to play behind the back of her imperial uncle, but she also went to a brothel and sang for so many men. When she finally found out that her imperial uncle was looking for her, she actually tried to run away.
He clearly saw that his uncle's face was very ugly and ashen, and he thought that his little aunt would definitely be severely punished. However, things developed in a direction he did not expect.
This little imperial aunt managed to appease the imperial uncle, who didn't hold her accountable. In the end, the imperial uncle even personally went to buy her a bowl of wontons.
When had he ever seen his royal uncle condescend to such a high position?
His little imperial aunt is truly capable.
Under heaven, there is no one else but her who can command the Imperial Uncle in this way.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Yi had many thoughts.
He felt that this young imperial aunt was no ordinary person, and he should make a good acquaintance with her.
If anything happens in the future, I can ask her to speak well of me to my uncle.
If you think of something, do it.
He immediately said solicitously, "Your Majesty, you flatter me. I am not tired at all. If I had known that Your Majesty would come to Tunzhou, I would have served you wholeheartedly."
