Chapter 90 The Emperor’s Grace

Gu Jingyun was wearing a royal blue gown, his hair was tied into a ponytail, his eyes were dark and bright, and he looked at him with a tight look on his face.

The prince raised his eyebrows slightly. This face was very familiar and looked very similar to the queen's nephew.

His eyes fell on Gu Baozhu's face. The little girl was next to Su Wan, looking at him curiously with her watery eyes.

Gu Jingyun and she were twins, they were not alike.

"Ah Wan, you buy a house here." The prince ignored Gu Huaizhi and chatted with Su Wan. It was as if the unpleasant scene yesterday had never happened.

Su Wan was speechless. The prince lived across the street?

What kind of fate is this?

She subconsciously turned to look at Gu Huaizhi beside her. The man had a cold face and lowered his eyes as he wondered what he was thinking about.

My heart skipped a beat.

"Huaizhi, I'm hungry and want to eat golden rice." Su Wan made a quick decision, took Gu Huaizhi's arm, and said softly: "I heard that there is a time-honored shop in the town, and the golden rice inside is quite famous. I want to try it.”

Gu Huaizhi stared at the soft and white hands on her arms, his eyes became deep, and his eyes fell on her beautiful face. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, with an expectant look on her face, revealing the innocence and coquettishness of a girl.

He raised the corners of his lips: "The golden rice is cooked with chrysanthemums. You won't be able to get used to it."

Su Wan pouted and muttered, "I just want to have a taste."

"Let's go." Gu Huaizhi pulled her hand away.

Su Wan's eyes widened.

The next moment, Gu Huaizhi's generous and warm hands wrapped hers, and he took a pair of younger siblings into the carriage.

The prince stared at the two people's hands holding each other in a daze, they seemed to fit together perfectly.

Gu Huaizhi stood on the shaft of the carriage, leaned forward slightly, and pulled her onto the carriage with force.

Su Wan was very close to him. The sunlight shone on his beautiful face, and his delicate facial features became vivid, making her heart sway.

"Gu Huaizhi..." Su Wan spoke subconsciously, staring at his graceful chin: "I have nothing to do with him."

Gu Huaizhi was silent and said warmly: "I know."

Su Wan smiled brightly, let go of Gu Huaizhi's hand, and got into the carriage.

Gu Huaizhi turned his head to look at the prince, squinting his eyes slightly, his eyes were sharp, not showing any gentleness as before. That kind of fierce aura, like a person with great power and a high position, is full of oppression.

The prince was startled and had to look squarely at the young man in front of him. His body was thin and slender, and he had a sense of frailty that was about to end soon. This was due to the aura he had just released, which could not be ignored. He did not look like a poor farmer at all.

A hint of sarcasm appeared on Gu Huaizhi's lips: "The more things you want to catch, the more you will catch nothing in the end."

It's quite a warning and advice.

The prince's face suddenly darkened, and he stared at Gu Huaizhi's back gloomily, suddenly realizing that his back felt familiar.

For a moment I couldn't remember where I had seen it.

"Your Highness, I need..." The confidant made a gesture of wiping his neck.

The prince watched the carriage drive out of the narrow alley, feeling uncertain. Su Wan's actions just now had already explained everything. She would never look back and sincerely wanted to live with Gu Huaizhi.

There is no trace of acting in her movements, expressions, and tone when she acts coquettishly. When she clarified her relationship with Gu Huaizhi and gained the other person's trust, the joy that jumped between her eyebrows came from her heart.

Those clear and clear eyes were no longer filled with him, but now filled with another man.

"No need." The prince said with serious eyes, "Check Gu Jingyun."

"Yes." The confidant took the order and prepared to set off to investigate.

"Check Gu Huaizhi again." The prince felt a little strange in his heart. He always felt that Gu Huaizhi was not simple.

"Yes." The confidant left in a hurry.

The prince got on the carriage, and the chamberlain poured a cup of tea and handed it to the prince: "Your Highness, Miss Su is right, she is already married and has no possibility of being with you anymore. You gave up on her and chose power, so you shouldn't look back and give it to others. Use it as a basis for people to criticize you.”

The prince remained silent, his eyes seemed to be dripping with thick ink, so dark that no light could shine through.

"General Qi had the merit of serving the dragon back then. The late emperor gave him a blank imperial edict to commend him. It was a great favor from the emperor and allowed him to save his life at a critical moment. He used this edict as a dowry and gave it to his only daughter. Marquis Dingyuan’s Mansion. Mrs. Marquis Dingyuan died suddenly, and the dowry fell into Marquis Dingyuan’s hands without enough time to entrust her. "

"When General Qi wanted to keep the dowry on his behalf, Miss Su was deceived by Marquis Dingyuan and became more and more separated from General Qi."

"The Regent asked you to marry the Crown Princess because of this imperial edict. If you provoke Miss Su and break up with the Crown Princess, you will have some twists and turns if you want to get this thing from her."

The chamberlain's last words were a bit euphemistic.

The prince did not blame him. The chamberlain was the only person left to him by his biological mother, and he had the most trust.

"I know this well."

The prince felt bitter in his heart. In his position, he couldn't control many things.

If he gave up his position as prince, he might not be able to protect Su Wan.

It was with this in mind that the queen changed the engagement between Su Wan and Su Mixue. She turned a blind eye and did not interfere.

Away from right and wrong, life is miserable, but life is there.

After all, I was a little unwilling.

"Have you found the whereabouts of Qi Jiajun?"

The prince looked tired and pressed the bridge of his nose.

This trip to Xihe Town has three purposes.

First, look for a miracle doctor.

Second, Qi Jiajun.

Third, visit Su Wan.

When the prince first arrived, he heard that the miracle doctor would not leave Xihe Town. He had not sent anyone to go there yet. When he got the news about Qi's army, he had someone kidnap the miracle doctor.

"Qi's army appeared at the dock of Xihe Town, but then lost their trace." The eunuch's eyes flashed slightly, and he gave a suggestion: "Miss Su married to Xihe Town, and Qi's army appeared here soon after. We send someone to keep an eye on Miss Su, and we can find Qi's army."

The prince fell silent. He was not willing to use Su Wan.

"Let's talk about it later."

The prince refused.

The eunuch lowered his head and did not persuade him again.

The carriage stopped at the door of the post station.

The post station chief bowed deeply and reported: "Your Highness, the governor came to visit you."

"No." The prince went back to the house.

Su Mixue was wearing a veil on her head and holding a food box in her hand, waiting at the door.

"Your Highness, I cooked the soup myself, please try it."

Su Mixue's tone was gentle, as if what happened two days ago had not happened.

The prince did not even look at her, and went inside to deal with the letters.

Su Mixue's eyes were red with anger, and the bones of her fingers holding the food box turned white. A rage was burning in her chest.

That day, the prince left her and went to Xinghua Village to see Su Wan.

She was going to write a letter to her mother, but she didn't expect her mother to have foresight and sent her a letter, telling her that there was an imperial edict in the Marquis' Mansion, which was exactly what the prince wanted. She didn't feel itchy today, so she came to the prince and used the imperial edict as bait.

Su Mixue calmed down and couldn't be impatient.

The prince wanted the imperial edict, and he would come to her sooner or later.

——

"Bang bang bang!"

The door of the prince's study was knocked.

"Come in."

The confidant pushed the door open and knelt on the ground to report: "Your Highness, I have found the information about Gu Huaizhi and Gu Jingyun."
