"Mother!" Pei Anyang was really aggrieved.

Over the years, except for the time when she married Gu Zhiyuan, she had never heard such cruel words from the eldest princess.

And this is just because she wants Gu Ning to look back at home.

The more this happened, the more confused she became.

However, the eldest princess looked impatient and obviously did not want to hear more from her.

After a long silence, she simply sat in the carriage, and no matter how bad the eldest princess looked, she never left.

Seeing this scene, the eldest princess laughed angrily: "What? Are you turning a deaf ear to my words?"

"My daughter doesn't dare." Pei Anyang quickly lowered his head and whispered, "I just want to say a few words to Ning'er. Maybe I haven't seen her for a long time."

The eldest princess sneered: "Thank you for remembering her."

Seeing this, Pei Anyang breathed a sigh of relief. At least the eldest princess didn't drive her away.

But the next moment, the eldest princess asked in a sinister tone: "Gu Qingqiu and Prince Duan are secretly in league with each other. You, a mother, are not prepared to stand up for Ning'er? Do you want to watch Ning'er take this grievance away?"

Swallow?"

"I..." Pei Anyang tightened the handkerchief and looked at her helplessly, "What does mother mean by this? Do you want me to kill Qingqiu?"

The eldest princess became furious when she saw her useless look.

She pointed at Pei Anyang and said angrily: "She did such a despicable thing. She should have had her hair twisted and gone to the mountains to be a sister-in-law. You don't pity your daughter's fiance for being robbed, but you pity her for doing this."

Despicable person!"

Pei Anyang raised his head uneasily: "But there is a huge gap between her and Ning'er's identities. No one can take away Ning'er's marriage."

"Then let me ask you, if you were Ning'er, would you still want this marriage?" "If Gu Zhiyuan had an affair with another woman before marrying you, would you swallow your anger and continue to marry him?

?"

The eldest princess squeezed out each word through her teeth and stared at Pei Anyang coldly, waiting for her answer.

"How can this be confused?" Pei Anyang's eyes rolled around, but the words he spoke were already empty.

The eldest princess smiled sarcastically: "It seems that you also know that such a marriage is unacceptable. In this case, why do you have to force Ning'er? Let her be blind and disgusted by this pair of bitches for nothing?"

The eldest princess' words made Pei Anyang blush.

She murmured for a long time, and then managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Mother is right, if this is the case, then we will go and beg the emperor to let this marriage go."

Hearing this, the eldest princess' face softened slightly: "You can still carry it clearly."

"Ning'er is my daughter and the apple of our Pei family's eye. We can't let her suffer these grievances." Pei Anyang lowered his head and responded in a muffled voice.

No matter what, she still loves her daughter.

The eldest princess snorted softly: "Then Gu Qingqiu, what are you going to do?"

"It's better to let her apologize to Ning'er... After all, we are a family, so we can't do anything too embarrassing."

"You, you!"

Seeing Pei Anyang's innocent face, the eldest princess shook her head helplessly.

For a moment, under Pei Anyang's puzzled eyes, she said slowly: "That's all, asking you about these matters has no results, so I should handle them myself."

Before Pei Anyang could open his mouth to plead, the eldest princess cast her cold eyes over her: "If you still recognize Ning'er as my daughter, please put away your Bodhisattva heart, or I will suffer the consequences of you in the future!"

Pei Anyang did not dare to refute, so he could only nodded.

The carriage entered the gate of Pei Mansion smoothly. Before Pei Anyang got out of the car, he heard the eldest princess admonishing him: "Ning'er has made great progress these days. Just talk to me about your stupid things. But don't do it."

Don't tell nonsense in front of her, so as not to hurt the relationship between mother and daughter."

"Don't worry, that's my daughter." Pei Anyang said with a serious face, "I love her the most."

"It's best this way." The eldest princess snorted softly and entered the main courtyard with the support of Aunt Gui.

The eldest princess caught a glimpse of Gu Ning jumping off the carriage lightly from the corner of her eye, and her relaxed eyebrows frowned again at this moment: "Anyang, this child is too simple-minded. If she knows the truth in the future, I'm afraid she will

…”

"well!"

All the words turned into a long sigh.

Aunt Gui supported her and comforted her: "The princess has been doing good deeds in her daily life, and God will definitely take care of her."

"Besides, it is better for the princess to know the truth than for her to be deceived by the wolves of the Gu family. With your protection, who can hurt the princess?"

"You are right." The eldest princess patted the back of Nanny Gui's hand, and finally a smile appeared on her face: "I just hope that both mother and daughter will be safe."

Gu Ning, who was one step behind, watched helplessly as the eldest princess entered the main courtyard, while she was forced to stay where she was.

Pei Anyang looked at her with gentle eyes and uneasiness. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

Gu Ning secretly clenched her hands, fearing that the mother who exuded the aura of the Virgin in her memory would say something that would cause her to have a brain hemorrhage.

However, what she didn't expect was that Pei Anyang was shocked when he opened his mouth.

"Ning'er, your grandmother has told me that she has wronged you these days." Pei Anyang rubbed her head and said softly, "I will enter the palace tomorrow and ask the emperor to make the decision to terminate this engagement for you!"

Gu Ning was stunned: "Does mother really mean what she said?"

"Of course." Pei Anyang said matter-of-factly, "You are my daughter, not one of those women who lets others do anything wrong to you. We will never tolerate this bad breath!"

"The Emperor has always loved you. When I explain why, he will definitely make the decision for you!"

"Don't!"

Gu Ning quickly grabbed Pei Anyang's hand.

Seeing this, Pei Anyang frowned in displeasure: "Ning'er, even though Prince Duan is good in every possible way, since he is unfaithful to you, you must not marry him again! Do you want to serve with other women?

Kazuo?”

"Of course not." Gu Ning took Pei Anyang's arm and said softly, "Mother, I think that even if you say this, the emperor will not believe it as long as King Duan doesn't admit it."

"Besides, in their eyes, it is natural for a man to have three wives and four concubines. If you want to break off the engagement for me because of this, not only will those people not understand us, but they will even say that we are cheating!"

Pei Anyang stiffened. She looked at Gu Ning holding her hand, tears flashing in her eyes.

Gu Ning thought she had done something wrong, and when she was about to take back her hand, Pei Anyang held her tightly.

"Then what do you want to do? Mother wants you to do it."

"Don't worry, mother, grandma has already planned it." Gu Ning put those thoughts behind her and explained, "You should rest assured when grandma is doing things."

"That's right." Pei Anyang nodded, "My mother is much smarter than me. She will definitely be able to come up with a perfect solution."

As she spoke, she changed the subject: "Since we are not marrying Prince Duan, we must pay more attention to other young talents these days and not let them be snatched away by noble ladies from other families."

"Mom has the best judgment and will definitely be able to choose a husband for you who will be devoted to you!"

Gu Ning's mouth twitched and she looked away silently.

The way you look at Gu Zhiyuan, you might as well not look at me for me.

She changed the subject without leaving a trace: "Mother, you must not reveal the news that we intend to break off the engagement with King Duan."

Before Pei Anyang asked, she explained warmly: "King Duan is interested in me just for the power of the Pei family. If he knew that I was going to withdraw from the engagement, I don't know how he would deal with it. We can't risk it."

At the risk of offending the emperor, I forcibly withdraw from this marriage, so I can only try to do it slowly."

"You're right." Pei Anyang solemnly agreed, "Don't worry, even if your father asks, I will never reveal a word about this matter!"

Seeing her sincere face, Gu Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the idiot mother is easy to deceive, and even though she is a holy mother, in her heart, her daughter still carries a very important weight, perhaps even more important than Gu Zhiyuan.

Thinking of this, her eyebrows relaxed and her mood was high.

It was late at night, but the lights in Gu's house were still brightly lit.

Gu Zhiyuan was sitting in the study, the table was full of official business, but he couldn't read a single word.

"The princess hasn't come back yet?"

"Replying to my words, the princess has sent a message, saying that she will stay in the Pei Mansion for the next few days to accompany the eldest princess."

The boy outside the door was extremely frightened and repeated what he said before.

Hearing the heavy noise in the room, he shrank his neck and quickly closed his mouth.

Gu Zhiyuan sat at the desk with a sullen expression, his thoughts in his heart were so complicated that he couldn't think clearly.

"What exactly went wrong?" He pressed his eyebrows, puzzled.

Not only did they not bring Gu Ning back, but Pei Anyang also stayed there. If something went wrong along the way, as he expected, the matter was exposed...

Once he thought of such a possibility, Gu Zhiyuan could not calm down.

At this moment, there was a sound outside the door, and a familiar voice came into his ears.

"master!"

The person who came was none other than Sheng Yu, who went to Jiangning to take away Qiu Yun's mother and son.

"Why are you back?" Gu Zhiyuan was surprised at first, then became worried, "Have you accomplished all the things I asked you to do?"

"Don't worry, sir, there is nothing unusual from Jiangning to Yuezhou." Sheng Yu replied in a low voice, "What you are worried about has not happened, and my subordinates have already arranged for them."

"That's good...that's good!" Gu Zhiyuan's heart, which had been hanging for many days, finally relaxed.

He looked soothed and asked with a smile: "Is Bai'er making any progress?"

"Don't worry!" Sheng Yu suppressed his guilty conscience and said with a smile, "The eldest son is studying calligraphy every day, and Mrs. Qiu is also very responsible."

Gu Zhiyuan smiled, feeling very happy: "My son, Gu Zhiyuan, is certainly extraordinary!"

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Sheng Yu took a step forward and said tentatively: "It's just that that person sent another message to ask you...to ask you how things went."

In an instant, Gu Zhiyuan's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
