Chapter 24 Chang Huan Becomes a Disciple
Gu Nianchu was touched by Chang Huan’s cute words. She smiled and hugged Chang Huan tighter.

"Chang Huan, you will receive a lot of gifts then, are you happy?"

Chang Huan snuggled in Gu Nianchu's arms: "Mother, I am happiest when you are around."

Gu Nianchu stretched out her hand and pinched Chang Huan's little nose: "Chang Huan, mother feels the same way. As long as Chang Huan is by mother's side, mother will be the happiest."

Chang Huan said to Gu Nianchu in a baby voice: "Mother, the prince asked someone to hire a teacher for me."

Gu Nianchu was stunned. She remembered that she said last night that she wanted to invite a teacher to give Chang Huan enlightenment. Before she even invited the teacher, Zhou Yuchen had already invited the person.

Their Gu family is a family of military generals. Although the eldest brother is a civil servant, his background is too shallow and it is not easy to find a suitable teacher.

"What is your name, sir?"

"The gentleman's name is Song Yunshan."

Chang Huan’s words startled Gu Nianchu: “Song Yunshan!”

Song Yunshan is the grandson of the great scholar Song Qiyuan, and also his student. He is very famous. Many talented young men want to study under him, but he never agrees. The Meiling Academy founded by the Song family is the most famous academy in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Students who are admitted must pass multiple levels of examinations and only the best ones can enter.

Now, he is willing to be Chang Huan’s husband.

This is of course Zhou Yuchen’s credit.

In his previous life, Song Yunshan was also Shen Shaobai’s husband.

However, it was Gu Nianchu who used Chang Huan's poems to deceive Song Yunshan, and he accepted Shen Shaobai as his last disciple.

Unexpectedly, in this life, Zhou Yuchen actually invited Song Yunshan to give Chang Huan enlightenment.

"Mother, what's wrong? Don't you like it?"

Chang Huan was a little nervous. If his mother didn't like it, then he could just not study with Mr. Song.

"Chang Huan, I'm very happy that Mr. Song can be your teacher. Mr. Song is a rare person in the world and has a wealth of knowledge. You must learn from him. I was just too surprised just now. I didn't expect that the prince would invite Mr. Song to teach you."

Gu Nianchu sternly warned Chang Huan to respect teachers and education, and Chang Huan nodded his head heavily in response.

Zhou Yuchen did this for Chang Huan, but he didn't even say a word in front of him.

Gu Nianchu couldn't help but sigh.

Gu Nianchu returned to the general's mansion the next day. She told the Gu family that Zhou Yuchen had invited Song Yunshan to Chang Huan. The Gu family was very happy to hear this, but at the same time they also felt that they owed Zhou Yuchen a huge favor.

The Gu family prepared a valuable gift for Song Yunshan. The gift was prepared by Gu Nianping and Gu Nianchu after discussing it, for fear of offending Song Yunshan.

They did not dare to send it in their own name, so they only sent it to Prince Qi's Mansion, wanting to give it to Song Yunshan in the name of Zhou Yuchen.

Zhou Yuchen refused: "Nianchu, since it is you who gave it to me, you have to let Mr. Song know. You can meet Mr. Song later. I have something to discuss with you."

Gu Nianchu then asked, "Your Highness, please speak."

Zhou Yuchen was a little embarrassed: "I know you are reluctant to let Chang Huan go, but now you have important things to deal with, so I want to discuss with you whether Mr. Song can take Chang Huan to Meiling Academy to study."

Gu Nianchu was reluctant to leave. She had just met Chang Huan and she wanted to make up for what she owed to Chang Huan in her previous life.

"Nianchu, if you miss Changhuan, you can go visit him."

Zhou Yuchen persuaded Chang Huan: "You are not worried about the Shen family..."

Gu Nianchu interrupted Zhou Yuchen: "I agree."

Sending Changhuan to Meiling Academy to study is the best thing for Changhuan.

After things here are settled, I can buy a house next to Meiling Academy, and then I can take care of Changhuan.

Gu Nianchu quickly made up her mind. She had been taking risks by coming to Prince Qi's mansion every day recently. If Shen Ling and the others knew about it, they would never let her take Chang Huan away. Zhou Yuchen nodded: "Okay, then you come with me to see Mr. Song."

Song Yunshan lived in Honghu Garden of the palace. Song Yunshan was a middle-aged man with a thin figure. He wore a blue shirt and looked as cold and aloof as in his previous life.

When he saw Zhou Yuchen, Song Yunshan didn't kneel but just bowed his hands, showing his pride as a scholar. Gu Nianchu stepped forward to greet him: "Hello Mr. Song, I am Changhuan's mother, Gu Nianchu, thank you for teaching Changhuan."

Song Yunshan returned the greeting: "Miss Gu, please don't be so polite. I have great respect for the Gu family's generations of loyalty. I am able to accept Chang Huan as my disciple today because Chang Huan has outstanding talent. I will do my best to teach him."

Song Yunshan asked Gu Nianchu whether she was willing to let him take Chang Huan away. Gu Nianchu gave an affirmative answer. Song Yunshan said that he would stay in Kyoto for a few more days and would take Chang Huan away after he finished his business.

Gu Nianchu was extremely reluctant to leave, and prepared gifts for Chang Huan, wishing he could take all his clothes, shoes and socks with him throughout his life.

On the third day, under Zhou Yuchen's arrangement, the Gu family disguised themselves as craftsmen and came to Prince Qi's Mansion. When they saw Chang Huan, they liked him very much.

Mrs. Gu didn't cry when she sent her twelve-year-old son to the battlefield, but when she saw Chang Huan, she couldn't help crying.

Chang Huan coaxed Madam Gu softly: "Grandma, don't cry. Grandma, have some candy."

Put a piece of candy in Mrs. Gu's mouth: "Grandma, is it sweet?"

Mrs. Gu nodded heavily: "Sweet, very sweet."

No matter how reluctant they were, they had to see Chang Huan off for Chang Huan's future.

There have been a lot of gossips about Gu Nianchu in Kyoto recently. Those were spread by people from the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, and they couldn't sit still anymore.

It's time for the Gu family to clean up that family of evil-hearted people.

Gu Nianchu disagreed: "Let them jump around for now. They want to throw dirty water on me, but I will always make them drink the dirty water themselves."

The Gu family couldn't persuade Gu Nianchu and could only let her do what she wanted.

After reluctantly seeing Chang Huan off, Gu Nianchu has been staying at her mother's house for ten days.

During this period, the Marquis' Mansion sent people to pick him up several times, but Gu Nianchu sent them back each time.

On this day, Shen Ling came to invite in person.

Shen Ling's injuries probably haven't healed completely yet, as he still walks with a limp.

When he saw Mrs. Gu, Shen Ling knelt down and apologized.

Mrs. Gu did not let him get up immediately.

This was simply impossible in the past. In the past, the Gu family would have helped Shen Ling up before he even knelt on the ground.

Gu Nianping said coldly at the side: "This is not the way to ask for forgiveness."

Then you have to take off your shirt and carry a whip on your back to the door.

What is the purpose of this pretense now?

"Mother-in-law, brother, this is all Shen Ling's fault. I'm here today to apologize!"

Shen Ling knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously, and soon blood stains appeared on his forehead.

You are really willing to spend a lot of money.

Gu Nianchu was calmly eating melon seeds and drinking tea.

"What are you doing here today, my lord?"

Shen Ling begged bitterly: "Madam, it's all my fault. Please forgive me and go home with me."
