Chapter 14

Tsing Yi walked in with a small hand stove in his hand, and spoke as he walked.

"Miss, the prince sent someone to say that he is waiting for you at the door."

"En, I see." Chao Li responded.

In the previous life, Gu Hanzhang also returned home with Chaoli, even though his face was tense, he had to go. After all, this was a marriage bestowed by the empress dowager.

If you don't go back to the door with Chaoli, it will be difficult for the Queen Mother to explain.

Seeing that it was about the same time, Chaoli left the mansion with Tsing Yi and went straight to the carriage.

Gu Hanzhang was already sitting in the carriage and hadn't seen him for two days. At this moment, he was even stingy with his eyes, staring intently at the book in his hand.

Chao Li didn't ask, and calmly stepped on the small stool and got into the carriage. Anyway, it's good for the two of them to be familiar strangers.

There was a vague stiffness between the two of them, and they didn't even want to break it.

"Walk."

Following Gu Hanzhang's instructions, the carriage also began to shake.

Chaoli has slept soundly for the past two days, and he has sorted out the situation in his previous life. He is not sleepy at all now, and he seems a little uncomfortable sitting in the carriage.

No matter how spacious the carriage was, it was only this big, but the breathing of the two of them was still unavoidably slightly entwined.

Facing Gu Hanzhang now, Chaoli is much more arbitrary than before.

Looking at each other unexpectedly, Gu Hanzhang just happened to raise his head, his eyes met, and they both retracted their gazes, pretending nothing happened.

However, the glance just now made Chaoli realize something was wrong.

"My son." Chao Li called out tentatively.

Gu Hanzhang didn't move, "What's the matter?"

Chao Li pursed his lips, "It's nothing important, I just want to ask the prince if the book he read is good, it must be very good."

"What do you mean?" Gu Hanzhang frowned.

"Oh, it's just that you read Shizi's book backwards, so there is no other meaning in asking more questions." Chao Li said.

The atmosphere fell into silence, Chaoli didn't see any discomfort at all, only a trace of curiosity.

After a while, Gu Hanzhang put down the book, and took a cool look at Chaoli.

"My son likes it."

After the words fell, Gu Hanzhang picked up the book again, but still did not turn around.

Chao Li nodded, "So that's the case."

I didn't see Gu Hanzhang having such a hobby in my previous life, I guess I just didn't know enough about it.

Immediately, Chaoli raised the car curtain slightly and looked out, missing Gu Hanzhang's somewhat flushed neck and stiff body.

It's no wonder that Chaoli didn't think much about it, she didn't intend to care about Gu Hanzhang in this life, she was just a little curious just now.

But thinking of Gu Hanzhang's prowess in both literature and martial arts, maybe he read the book backwards to increase the difficulty of reading, which is probably the same reason.

As for whether it was about Chaoli, it was impossible.

The atmosphere on the carriage became more and more strange. Fortunately, it didn't take long to arrive at the court.

Gu Hanzhang jumped out of the carriage first, and this time he did not help Chaoli off the carriage as he did on the day he entered the palace, but went straight to the gate of the Chaofu.

Chaoli got out of the carriage supported by Tsing Yi, and walked slowly to the gate of Chaofu.

Looking at the familiar plaque, Chaoli felt a soreness in his throat, and his eyes hurt even more.

"Miss, you and my uncle are back, no, it's the concubine and the son, the two are coming back today, please come in quickly."

The concierge knew Chaoli, and she was always gentle with others, so the servants in the mansion thought of Chaoli's goodness, and respected her quite a bit.

Chao Li smiled gently, "Well, we're back."

Gu Hanzhang didn't say much, and walked into the Chaofu with Chaoli, and went straight to the front hall.

The front hall was already full of people, and the first one was Chao Lu and Chao Li's biological mother, Fang Huimin.

Even though Chao Lu is Gu Hanzhang's father-in-law and Chao Li's biological father, but his status is not as good as the two, so he won't ask for it now, and he will be invited when the two arrive.

Fang Huimin looked at the door eagerly, and couldn't resist getting up the moment she saw Chao Li. Fortunately, the others got up too, so it wasn't too abrupt.

Seeing that there was no pain on Chao Li's face, Fang Huimin finally breathed a sigh of relief and suppressed the wetness in his eyes.

At least, from the looks of it, Chaoli didn't suffer any grievances.

Fang Huimin is the daughter of Fang Yaohui, the deputy general under General Zhen Guo's command. He was the one who rescued Gu Qinghan back then, and it was he who, after getting Gu Qinghan's approval, put aside his old face and went to the palace to invite the Queen Mother.

However, Fang Huimin was not liked by Chaolu, so Fang Huimin only had one daughter, Chaoli.

As the housewife, she is in a difficult situation without a son, let alone Chao Lv and her childhood sweetheart concubine Li Shi.

It can be said that for so many years, Chaoli and Fang Huimin have struggled in the mansion, and they have not received the respect they deserve, and the right to run the family is also in the hands of Li.

If Chaolu hadn't cared about Fang Yaohui and Fang Huimin's younger brother Fang Zhengye, he might have been abandoned by Chaolu long ago.

The moment Chao Li saw Fang Huimin, tears welled up in his eyes.

In her previous life, Fang Huimin died of dystocia, but was murdered by the people in the mansion. When Chaoli went to the funeral, she could only see Fang Huimin's towering abdomen and pale face.

Chao Li's hands hidden in his sleeves clenched into fists, and he didn't know that his nails were stuck in his palms.

The court owed them blood debts, and they must pay in blood in this life!
Looking at Fang Huimin's eyes filled with tears, Chao Li also felt very distressed.

If it weren't for the presence of so many people, she would have thrown herself into Fang Huimin's arms and cried, and now she could only suppress the pain in her heart.

"I met my father and my mother." Chaoli Fushen.

"I've seen my father-in-law and my mother-in-law." Gu Hanzhang clasped his hands together.

Chaoli and Gu Hanzhang spoke one after the other, but did not speak to others.

The servants of the Zhenbeihou's Mansion also brought in gifts at the right time. These were all prepared by the Queen Mother, and some were brought out by the Zhenbeihou's Mansion, which definitely gave Chaoli enough face.

No way, the Queen Mother bestowed a marriage, which is different.

In the entire hall, the only elders are Chao Lu and Fang Huimin. As for Chao Lu's two concubines, they are not worthy of Gu Hanzhang and Chao Li's greetings.

Chao Lu hurriedly gave Gu Hanzhang a helping hand, "Your son-in-law, don't be too polite, just come back, why do you have to prepare so many gifts. Today I will definitely have a few drinks with my son-in-law, and I will never stop getting drunk."

That's what he said, but everyone present knew that it was just Chaolu's talk, and he didn't have the guts to pour alcohol on Gu Hanzhang.

Gu Hanzhang nodded and said nothing, he was not enthusiastic about Chaolu, from the very beginning he disliked people in Chaofu, especially towards Chaolu.

They are all in the court, of course he knows the character of the court law.

And everyone present knew that Gu Hanzhang was cold-tempered, so it wasn't too surprising to see that he didn't mean to be approachable.

"I have seen the prince."

A delicate voice suddenly sounded in the front hall, except for Gu Hanzhang, all eyes in the hall were focused on one place.

Zhao Li suppressed the hatred in his eyes, turned to look at the speaker, and showed a bright smile.
