Gu Ruoyun’s face darkened. He looked at Gu Lingyu and said, “You’re one to call her Yan’er. So this contemptuous manner is the way the Gu Family taught you to behave. How should you address my Princess Consort?”
Gu Lingyu’s expression froze and he said, “Aunt.”
Gu Ruoyun suddenly smiled and looked affectionately at Gu Lingyu, “Good nephew, don’t say that I, as your uncle, am not helping you. It’s not your fault that I want to abdicate. It’s the entire Imperial Court who forced me to abdicate, no?”
Gu Lingyu’s eyes lit up and he left happily.
Su Yan nudged Gu Ruoyun and said with a sudden realization, “You want them to fight among themselves.”
Gu Ruoyun looked at Su Yan in surprise, “It’s not easy for you to use your little brain to understand this matter.”
Su Yan thought that it was a compliment but after carefully thinking about it, the smug look on her face faded.
“Are you calling me stupid?”
Gu Ruoyun returned Su Yan’s glance with a look that said “you can even hear this between the words”.
Su Yan was completely enraged.
She bared her fangs and brandished her claws as she pounced towards Gu Ruoyun.
The two of them fooled around.
Gu Lingyu had contacted all the ministers who had supported him in the past, but in the end, every single one of them was avoiding him.
He was so angry that he had kicked the table over.
He thought fiercely in his heart, “Since you are heartless, don’t blame me for being unrighteous.”.
Su Qiao put on the new clothes and new jewelry that she had just bought and went out happily.
She ran into Lady Gu at the door. Lady Gu saw the clothes and accessories Su Qiao had on her and her face immediately darkened.
She said a few unpleasant words to Su Qiao in a tepid manner.
Su Qiao’s face was stiff, but she had no choice but to smile.
After finally sending Lady Gu away with great difficulty, Su Qiao’s face was as drak as the bottom of a pot.
The servant girl next to her said in fear, “My Lady?”
Su Qiao pinched the inner side of the servant girl’s arm hard. The servant girl’s eyes instantly turned red, but she could only cover her mouth and endure silently, not daring to make a sound.
Su Qiao pinched hard a few times to vent the gloominess in her heart, then put on a smile again.
She glared at the servant girl with tears in her eyes as a warning, and the servant girl quickly took out a handkerchief to dry her tears.
Only then did Su Qiao walk out satisfied.
The poor little servant girl didn’t even have time to take a look at her wounds and hurriedly followed.
Su Qiao had an appointment with one of her friends today. The young misses who could hang out with Su Qiao weren’t from big families.
Su Qiao still had a sense of superiority in front of them.
They arranged to meet at the Treasure Pavilion.
When she reached the door, Su Qiao slowly got out of the carriage. Her every move was full of grace.
Qin Zhenzhen was the daughter of a merchant. When she looked at Su Qiao, envy flashed in her eyes.
“Wow! Sister Su Qiao, the hairpin on your head is the latest design of the Treasure Pavilion, isn’t it? It’s really beautiful.”
Su Qiao smiled reservedly and looked at Qin Zhenzhen indifferently. However in her heart, she was very proud of herself from the compliment.
She smiled gently on the surface and touched the hairpin on her head, feigning helplessness. “My husband insisted on buying this hairpin for me. I couldn’t stop him. Sigh, I already have a lot of jewelry, but he won’t listen to me. I can’t even wear them all.”
Qin Zhenzhen said enviously, “If only I could be like sister Su Qiao and marry someone like brother-in-law.”
Su Qiao felt disdain in her heart, but on the surface, she said, “Zhenzhen’s future husband must be a capable one.”
Looking at Qin Zhenzhen’s longing look, Su Qiao raised the corners of her mouth in a mocking manner.
She said with some sadness, “A person like your brother-in-law also has some bad points.”
Qin Zhenzhen opened her eyes wide and asked, “What bad points?”
A trace of a smile flashed in Su Qiao’s eyes. She sighed and said, “Recently, my husband has taken over the military power of the Guang Residence. He’s so busy that his feet don’t even touch the ground. I can’t even meet him once..”
