Splendid spring returns

Chapter 225
"It was the two of them who instigated it?" Xin Nian wondered: "Why? Why did Madam Yao go so far as to please Gu Yunxian again when she didn't exert any force on the prince? Aunt Qiu, I almost forgot about her these days, why did she suddenly jump up and down again? come out?"

Aunt Qin muttered: "Perhaps Madam Yao has not kept the prince overnight, so she turned back to ask my aunt for help. Naturally, she wanted to kill her as soon as possible, and she could see that the current situation was not good for my aunt. Sure enough, isn't my aunt being provoked? As for Aunt Qiu, if grandma is having a hard time, she will definitely be even more sad. Besides, she has nothing to do these days. She probably gives her advice in order to prove that she is still useful. "

Xin Nian nodded and said: "It makes sense. It just feels a little weird..."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly saw Gu Changting striding in from outside the courtyard gate, his face as gloomy as water, not at all his usual freehand and romantic appearance.

The three of them stood up in a hurry, and Xin Nian stepped forward and wondered: "What's going on? Where did you come back so angry?"

After the words fell, Gu Changting snorted coldly and said calmly: "Stop talking about it now, pour me a cup of tea and I'll drink it."

Aunt Gu and Aunt Qin understood, and they both left.Here Gu Changting was sitting on a chair holding a tea cup, lost in thought for a long time, suddenly smiled bitterly and murmured: "Nian Nian, I finally got my wish, or in other words, the prince brother finally got his wish."

Xin Nian's heart skipped a beat and he quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Today, the prince's brother hosted a banquet and entertained all die-hard princelings. Do you know who he solemnly introduced to us during the banquet?"

Xin Nian was stunned for a moment, then a name appeared in her mind, and she blurted out: "Tan Feng?"

"That's right, that's the guy." Gu Changting gritted his teeth and said, "The prince brother wants us to settle the old feud, haha! Do you think I don't know? This is just deliberately irritating me. As long as I am angry, I will ignore my brothers for the sake of women. It would be better if I break up with the villain in the overall situation. From now on, His Highness the Crown Prince will use his example to deal with me in whatever way he wants."

Xin Nian was silent, held Gu Changting's hand and said softly: "So, are you really going to break up and let His Highness the Crown Prince get his wish?"

Gu Changting sneered: "After all this drama, do I still need to compromise? Anyway, my reputation for being pampered and arrogant has spread all over the capital, so I am simply more arrogant. I didn't even move my chopsticks and just said For His Highness the Crown Prince to use someone like Tan Feng as his staff is tantamount to colluding with others. I will never tolerate such a thing. I hope the Crown Prince will think twice. After saying that, I walked away. By now the news should have reached the palace. "

Xin Nian sighed and murmured: "So, you are going to the palace this afternoon? I wonder how the Queen Mother and the Empress are going to reprimand you."

Gu Changting said calmly: "My mother has passed away. I can just deal with the Queen Mother and the Queen's aunt for a while." After saying that, he breathed a long sigh of relief, held Xin Nian's hand, and pulled her to sit next to him. , said softly: "I feel bad in my heart, but I am also relieved. Nian Nian, I finally got off the car of the prince's brother. Although the outcome is unpredictable, I feel that Prince Duan's Mansion has emerged from the abyss. Climb out of it, and from then on, the sea and the sky will be brighter."

Xin Nian nodded and said: "The prince is a profit-seeking person who is mean and ungrateful. He is not like the emperor, but more like the Liao family. I think it is a good thing to get off his car. There is only one thing. , From now on, I am afraid that all kinds of overt and covert attacks will come at you, so you must be on your guard."

When Gu Changting heard what she said, he couldn't help but feel a bit of pride in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Come on, though. The big waves wash away the sand, and all the wind and water are blown away by the rain and wind. I want to see what was blown away by the rain and wind this time." , who exactly is it?”

Xin Nian muttered: "Tan Feng asked me to collect evidence of your arrogance earlier, whether it was words or transgressions. I was thinking that His Highness the Crown Prince would still spread your slander before the Emperor until the Emperor was displeased and would alienate you day by day. , if he mobilizes the ministers to criticize you, he might be able to drag you down."

Gu Changting sneered and said: "He is also a short-sighted person who is eager for quick success and short-sightedness. In fact, he doesn't have much power. Logically speaking, for a person like me, he doesn't agree with me in his heart, so he should try to win over him on the surface. There is no reason to let go of an arm before the big thing is accomplished. But. Just because of the Xixia Mission case last time, I ruined a huge good thing for him, but he refused to hide his hatred for me, and now he has turned against me. What do you think a person who is determined to retaliate can achieve? It’s a big deal.”

"I feel that His Highness the Crown Prince may not be able to keep his temper. From what I have seen and heard over the years, the Emperor is extremely indulgent to him, and the Crown Prince's temperament is also conceited enough. He probably thinks that without you taking care of the butcher, he would not be able to eat strips. You stupid pig, you are so disobedient, why don't you get rid of me, so that you don't have to use his cover to do things both covertly and covertly. If you are harmed, wouldn't it be worth the loss? Because of this, I pierced the window paper today."

Gu Changting thought for a while, nodded and said: "You are right. I originally thought that if I couldn't leave for a while, I would just do it secretly and see what big things he has done in these years? In the last ten years, there have been several unanswered public cases in the court, and the alleged amount of money is not only huge? Maybe it was all his handiwork. But before I had time to take action, we successfully separated from him. "

"Really?" Xin Nian glanced at Gu Changting, stretched out his hand to point at him and said: "It seems that the prince is also smart and knows how to respect himself when raising bandits. He is afraid that you, a big rat, will use his power to kill him." If all that little wealth is shaken off, it would be better to cut off my strength as soon as possible so that I don’t have to deal with you with a forced smile."

This sentence made Gu Changting happy, and most of his depression disappeared.Then I heard Xin Nian say: "I know that you have a lot of things at court and in the palace, and now that you are in such trouble with the prince, I don't know how many things you have to do next. But the backyard is also in full swing now, so you can't just let go, right?" "

Gu Changting tilted his head, looked at her with his hands on his temples, and said, "Did sister and Jiaru meet each other? It's easy to handle. Which one do you want to get out of?"

"What are you talking about?" Xin Nian raised his eyebrows: "Who do you think I am? Am I harboring evil intentions?"

Gu Changting smiled: "I can't say that you harbor evil intentions, but don't you have any idea why you moved to Qingliang Pavilion? Nian Nian, is there anything you can't say in front of me? I also know that you are actually very kind. If the eldest sister today Alone and helpless, you will be more enthusiastic than anyone else, just like the third sister and Aunt Qin back then. Now they are regarded as a thorn in your side because of their own badness. In this case, just drive away the wolf and devour the tiger. Is there anything you can’t say?”
