Chapter Sixty-Four: Blood Boiling



Wen Tingyun did not stay long.

After discussing a few more things with his sister, he left.

After he left, Wen Nongnong sat alone for a while, thinking about many things.

She wasn't just saying that she wanted to win over Gu Linchao when she told Wen Tingyun.

She really did make that decision.

Although Gu Linchao's ending was also unfortunate, he wielded considerable power while he was alive, and even Gu Heng was very wary of him.

With such a powerful backer by her side, why wouldn't she rely on him?

As long as Gu Linchao is willing to stand on her side, Wen Ruyi will at least have to think twice and have some reservations. Perhaps the Wen family can escape this calamity.

At worst, she could help Gu Linchao avoid danger and change the outcome.

Alternatively, everyone could join forces to overthrow Gu Heng. Without Gu Heng, Wen Ruyi would be nothing.

Thinking of this, she felt a surge of excitement and really wanted to pull off a big heist right away.

...

Green Fairy noticed that Miss's appetite was unusually good today.

He actually ate two bowls of porridge, two steamed buns, and a plate of steamed dumplings, and he walked with a brisk pace, looking very spirited.

"Lvqiao, go to the kitchen and see if the crystal shrimp dumplings and millet porridge I asked you to make are ready?" Wen Nongnong instructed.

Green Fairy was surprised. Miss can still eat?

Soon, Lü Qiao returned with what she had asked for.

"I've packed the food into a box, I'll take it to the Prince," Wen Nongnong said again.

Upon hearing this, Lü Qiao finally realized that it wasn't Miss who wanted to eat it herself.

It startled her; she thought the young lady had suddenly turned into a glutton.

"Miss, it's packed." After a moment, she handed the food box to Wen Nongnong.

Wen Nongnong took the food box and walked towards the West Garden.

Gu Linchao should be back from court by now, right?

However, when she went to the West Garden, she found no one there. Gu Linchao had returned, but as soon as he came back, he went to his study.

She had no choice but to go to the study instead.

Outside the study, Si Yi stood guard, holding his sword.

Seeing Wen Nongnong approach, he was slightly surprised.

Wang Houde came out of his study, saw her, and stepped forward with a happy expression, "Why has Your Highness come here?"

Wen Nong Nong peeked into the study behind him. "Your Highness is back, isn't he? I've come to bring him breakfast."

Wang Houde nodded quickly, "Yes, Your Highness is in the study. This servant will lead you in."

"Thank you, Eunuch Wang." Wen Nongnong carried the food box and followed her into the study.

"Your Majesty, the Princess Consort has brought you breakfast," Wang Houde reported.

Gu Linchao was engrossed in handling government affairs behind his desk, still wearing his court robes. His jet-black hair was tied up with a hairpin, and he exuded an aura of asceticism, with a cold and noble expression.

Upon hearing Wang Houde's words, he paused in his work and looked up towards the door.

"Your Highness." Wen Nongnong walked in, curtsied to him, and then placed the food box on the table. "I had the kitchen prepare some breakfast for you. Please eat it while it's hot." As she spoke, she took the food out of the food box.

Gu Linchao glanced at her with some surprise.

After a long pause, he said calmly, "I am not hungry."

Wen Nongnong paused, turned to look at him, "Man is made of iron, food is steel. How can you not be hungry if you don't eat? Your Highness, please eat. This millet porridge has been simmering in the kitchen for a long time, it's delicious. And these crystal shrimp dumplings, thin skin, lots of filling, flavorful and juicy, Your Highness will definitely like them. And these side dishes are also very refreshing..."

Seeing her diligently introducing each item, Gu Linchao pursed his lips and said, "You can leave it here; I'll eat it later."
