"Yo."

As soon as Gu Ning returned home, Pei Anlin, who was standing in the corridor, made a strange sound.

Seeing Pei Anlin, Gu Ning felt very guilty. She quickly put a smile on her face and approached Pei Anlin: "Who made you angry, uncle? I'll teach him a lesson for you right now!"

The only response to Gu Ning was Pei Anlin's sneer.

"Who else dares to offend me?" He showed a sarcastic smile, "It's not you girl who makes me angry all the time!"

Gu Ning's smile froze on her face: "Why did I make you angry? I didn't do anything!"

"You're not married yet! How can you go out on the street with Xie Yan?" Pei Anlin said sadly, "The marriage has not been finalized yet, and you go in and out with him openly. If it really can't happen, then you

..."

At this point, Pei Anlin couldn't bear to continue talking anymore. He sighed heavily: "I watched Xie Yan grow up. I naturally know that he has great abilities and character, but he..."

It's just that Xie Yan has a special status. If Gu Ning is really tied to a boat with him, once the plan fails, Gu Ning will definitely be implicated! As long as they are not married, Gu Ning can always save Gu Ning's life by fighting for the Pei family's century-old foundation.

.

Pei Anlin had countless things to say in his heart, but he swallowed them all in Gu Ning's clear eyes.

"Listen to uncle!" He patted Gu Ning's shoulder hard, so hard that he almost knocked Gu Ning short.

Gu Ning covered her shoulders and muttered in a low voice: "Isn't it just that..."

"What do you know?" Pei Anlin glanced at Gu Ning sharply, with uncontrollable anger in his eyes, "Did that boy Xie Yan tell you something?"

"No, no, no!" Gu Ning waved her hands quickly, "He didn't tell me anything!"

As soon as he said this, Gu Ning regretted it. Sure enough, Pei Anlin's eyes glanced over coldly: "You still speak for him!"

Gu Ning secretly complained in her heart, pretending to be stupid, Bai Tian pretended to be stupid, and others also became stupid. Her words just now not only did not make Pei Anlin dispel his doubts about Xie Yan, but made him even more suspicious.

Seeing Pei Anlin's anger, Gu Ning swallowed all the words of explanation. If he kept talking, Pei Anlin might be furious.

"Ning'er, listen to uncle!" Pei Anlin said sternly, "Uncle will not harm you. You are not married yet, so it is not good to get in touch too early."

"But my uncle asked me to have a good relationship with Xie Yan before." Gu Ning curled her lips, "How long has passed, and your words have changed again."

Pei Anlin was in trouble. He had previously thought that if Xie Yan could succeed, his identity would be completely different. Gu Ning had enmity with him before, so there was no guarantee that he would not be revengeful after he took over. Naturally, he wanted to make a good fight with him.

relation.

Unexpectedly, he didn't pay attention. The two of them had indeed established a good relationship, but they looked at each other. This made him lose a lot of hair in worry. He spent the whole day thinking about what would happen to Gu Ning if the plan failed.

Being involved.

Now that I think about it, when I asked Gu Ning to establish a good relationship with Xie Yan, I clearly dug a hole for myself. Now that it's better, I can't advance or retreat.

Pei Anlin looked at the blue sky above his head and sighed: "Ning'er, you have to remember that your uncle will not harm you."

Facing Gu Ning's clear eyes, Pei Anlin gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to go find Xie Yan to settle the score! He's such a big man, he doesn't know the importance!"

Before the words of persuasion could be uttered, Pei Anlin had already strode away. Gu Ning had to swallow those words and lowered his head in embarrassment.

In fact, it's not that Xie Yan didn't know the importance, she did all these things on purpose.

"County Master." Chunyu walked over quickly, "I didn't pay attention to the news they sent today. I didn't know that Miss Xiao was actually with the prince..."

"You did a good job." Gu Ning patted her shoulder and praised, "If you hadn't discovered Xiao Ruyan's trace before, I wouldn't have been able to set up today's game."

Xiao Ruyan had been following her before and had been discovered by the sharp-eyed Chunyu. However, Gu Ning did not let Chunyu take action to deal with Xiao Ruyan, but allowed Xiao Ruyan to continue following her.

, when Xiao Ruyan's emotions were almost brewing, she went out with Xie Yan again, deliberately asking Xiao Ruyan to report the news, and then let Chu Yunyi catch her being intimate with Xie Yan.

Although Chu Yunyi has some abilities, he is too conceited. Just because he avoided him before, it does not mean that he can allow Gu Ning to get close to other men, especially when this man ruined the thank-you feast for many of his good deeds.

Coupled with the recent actions of the Pei family against the Jiang family, with his character, he would never think that the Pei family was just taking revenge for Pei Anyang, but would think that the Pei family had reached cooperation with the second prince, including himself.

The marriage with Xie Yan was all for the purpose of targeting him together and tearing him down from the position of crown prince.

Chunyu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Gu Ning's eyes curled into the shape of a crescent moon when she smiled. She was obviously in a good mood.

"That's good, I'm still worried about ruining your business."

"There are people here to thank you for the banquet." Gu Ning smiled at her and comforted her, "I can't possibly leave everything to you alone. How heavy is the burden?"

Chunyu's eyes turned red when she heard her soft voice of comfort.

She was born as a secret guard and was killed in the sea of ​​​​blood from the Corpse Mountain. She had been ordered to come to Gu Ning to serve her. She thought that Gu Ning was a difficult-to-serve young lady with a lot of money, but unexpectedly, Gu Ning thought of everything for her.

"County Lord, slave..."

"Okay, you are mine, and I should treat you well." Gu Ning patted her shoulder and said softly, "Wipe your tears, I have a task for you to do."

Chunyu nodded dully: "But it depends on the county master's orders."

"Send a few people to the East Palace to inform Gu Qingqiu about this person."

Gu Ning reached out and put a note in Chunyu's hand.

After Chunyu saw the familiar yet unfamiliar name above, she was surprised and said, "Didn't she run away?"

"No, no." Gu Ning waved her hand and smiled meaningfully, "How could I let such a good tool escape? After she left Jiangnan, every step she took was within my expectations.

.”

Chunyu understood and quickly said: "I will take care of it now."

That night.

The palace maids in the East Palace hurried in and out of the dormitory, and their faces were all red with embarrassment.

The shouts came one after another in the dormitory, like waves rolling in the sea, one wave higher than the other.

"It's been two hours, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess haven't taken a break either." The palace maid said with a blushing face.

"What do you know! The Crown Princess is not a simple person. She did this to consolidate her status!" An older palace official said seriously, "In a while, the Emperor will choose a concubine for His Highness. As for the Crown Princess, we have

Who doesn’t know better? If she doesn’t give birth to a son and a half, her position will sooner or later be taken over by others who come in later!”

Several people were chattering outside the palace when they saw a palace maid running out and shouting: "Where's the hot water? Is it ready?"

This sentence made people outside get busy again.

The exertion in the first half of the night gave Gu Qingqiu a look of fatigue in his eyebrows.

But the moment Chu Yunyi turned around, she calmed down her expression and half leaned on the couch. Her cold temperament formed a strong contrast with the red marks on her body. Chu Yunyi's eyes darkened, and she was embarrassed again.

.

"Your Highness, no more." Gu Qingqiu pushed Chu Yunyi away softly, but her hands were useless. Instead, she was hugged by Chu Yunyi. She whispered, "In my belly..."

Hearing this, Chu Yunyi's interest immediately disappeared. He touched Gu Qingqiu's belly lovingly. There were no traces visible here at this time, but he could feel the blood connection with this child.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Gu Qingqiu lowered his head shyly, but the thought in his heart never dissipated.

At this moment, a eunuch trotted in. Gu Qingqiu exclaimed and quickly covered his body with a brocade quilt.

When the eunuch saw Gu Qingqiu's body, she didn't blink, and the expression on her face didn't change. It seemed that Gu Qingqiu was fussing, and she pinched a corner of the brocade quilt tightly.

The moment Chu Yunyi saw the eunuch, his eyes immediately changed.

He quickly stood up and took the eunuch aside.

Seeing his actions, Gu Qingqiu felt a chill in her heart. What was said in the note sent to her during the day seemed to be confirmed, but she still held on and looked at Chu Yunyi without blinking.

"I'm afraid that the master is about to give birth." The eunuch whispered, "He said he wanted to see you!"

Chu Yunyi's expression changed, and the feelings from the past flooded into his heart at this moment. He just hesitated for a moment and nodded.

He strode out without even giving an explanation to Gu Qingqiu.

In the past, Gu Qingqiu would definitely ask about Chu Yunyi's whereabouts, but after her life experience was exposed, she no longer dared to ask. She carefully maintained the relationship, not daring to restrain Chu Yunyi, nor did she dare to ask him again.

Interfering with Chu Yunyi's decision seemed to make the incident forgotten.

"Your Highness!" As soon as Gu Qingqiu spoke, Chu Yunyi turned to look at her.

Gu Qingqiu's words lingered in her mind for a long time, and finally she only showed a considerate smile: "It's so late, Your Highness should be careful when going out."

Seeing Gu Qingqiu like this, Chu Yunyi felt a little guilty, but it quickly disappeared. He just nodded: "It's just a small matter. I will come back to accompany you after it is dealt with."

Gu Qingqiu responded and watched Chu Yunyi's figure disappear into the night.

Her eyes were lowered, and when another person walked into the hall, she said in a gloomy tone: "Get ready, I want to go out."

At the same time, Pei Mansion.

A black figure moved quickly and sneaked into the most heavily guarded courtyard under the eyes of the patrolling guards.

At this time, the lights in the courtyard had already been turned off.

But this dark figure walked towards the main wing in a familiar manner, not shying away from Chunyu's eyes.

The people in the room seemed to be aware of his arrival and whispered: "Come in quickly!"
