My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

"Then Chang Lang, what are you going to do next? How are you going to find that Mr. Li?" Gu Li asked again.

"I've sent someone to inquire about it. It should be a matter of two days." Chang An said, "By the way, Su Meng is quite familiar with Madam Zhang. We can go look for her tomorrow."

Gu Li nodded in agreement, and then said, "I feel that Madam Zhang is also quite pitiful."

"We don't even know who the child's father is. And because of his previous identity, this period of time must have been difficult." Gu Li sighed, feeling a little sorry for Zhang Aiyu.

"These problems are not what we should worry about. The previous period was the most difficult for her, and now it is almost over." Chang An touched Gu Li's head and said.

"Um......"

......

The next day, Chang An went to the Imperial Academy as usual. While sitting in the car, Chang An was still thinking about his next plan. Although this kind of thing was just a public opinion event, people nowadays attach great importance to face and reputation. They either sacrifice their privacy to clarify, or bear this infamy for the rest of their lives.

Although the solution would be simple, it might turn into a bad experience for Zhang Aiyu. Thinking of this, Chang An sighed again.

Huaiqin saw Chang'an sighing, so she asked, "Sir, what's wrong? Are you still worried about Madam Zhang Aiyu?"

"Just call her Madam Zhang. Madam Zhang Aiyu was her previous name." Chang An raised his head and corrected, "I am indeed worried about her affairs. If I don't handle it well, then the matter will be clarified, but I will start to have a hard time."

"Sir, don't you have any solution?" Huaiqin did not participate in their conversation yesterday, so naturally she didn't know Chang'an's plan.

"There is a way, but there may be some side effects," said Chang An.

"What are the sequelae? Can you tell me, sir?" Huaiqin asked.

Chang An nodded and told Huaiqin about his plan yesterday - of course, he concealed the role of the two sisters Chang Qi and Chang Qi.

After listening to this, Huaiqin was thoughtful and said, "This is indeed a bit difficult."

After that, the car was quiet for a while, and then Huaiqin seemed to think of something and asked, "By the way, that Madam Zhang said that if you help her, Madam Zhang will..."

"No, no," Chang An waved his hands quickly, "I don't have that plan. I plan to reject her when the time comes."

Huaiqin was a little puzzled and asked, "If that's the case, why didn't you explain it to Madam Zhang right away?"

"Will she still be willing to let me help her after I explain it clearly?" Chang An said unhappily, "At this time, if we say something like this, she might not trust us anymore."

"Who knows, if we agree to her, she might just turn around and find someone else, and then accept someone else's even more outrageous demands. Wouldn't that be meaningless?"

"Mrs. Zhang is now a mother. From her performance yesterday, I know that she will definitely sacrifice everything for her child—her dignity, reputation, and even her life."

"You are still very thoughtful, young master."

"Stop talking, I'm thinking..."

......

At noon, Chang An returned home. When he heard the cheering "Chang Lang", he could only force a smile:

"Mother Gu, I'm back."

"Chang Lang, welcome home."

Gu Li saw Chang An's appearance and thought that he was tired, so he walked up to him and hugged him. Then he said, "What's wrong with Chang An? Are you still worried about Madam Zhang's matter?"

"Um......"

Chang An gently rubbed Gu Li's temples, smelling the fragrance on her body, trying to relax himself. Then he felt a gentle touch on his lips, and then he felt the other person rubbing against him.

He himself didn't know why he was anxious because of a woman who had nothing to do with him. He was even scolded by Zhou Xuezheng in the Imperial College for this.

Then Gu Li gently pulled him into the house and said, "It's okay. This is the best way Chang Lang can think of."

"If we don't sue the government, then Madam Zhang's problem won't be solved. If you want something, you need to pay for it. This is only natural, isn't it?"

"Moreover, Li Dada is the one who fabricated the story, but Chang Lang is the famous Marquis Dingkang. If he doesn't dare to tell the truth in court, then he will be guilty of an offense. On the contrary, if he admits with his own mouth that the story was only for entertainment and the content is all false, then wouldn't that silence the public?"

"Besides, Madam Zhang will definitely have to bear some rumors. We are just ordinary people, not great saints. It is best for us to do what we can. There is no need to blame ourselves and worry about things that we have not done completely."

Chang An just listened to Gu Li's words quietly without any reaction. After Gu Li said this, he turned around, gently shook Chang An's hand, and said:

"Chang Lang, we are just ordinary people. The best we can do is just this title. Sometimes, it's not a sin to be a little hard-hearted."

Chang An looked at Gu Li and said slowly: "But she is a mother..."

"I know there are some things we shouldn't be responsible for, so don't worry about it, okay." Gu Li patted him and pulled him back to the room.

......

, Kangfang went.

At this time, Su Meng was in his room, holding the Dingkang Cewen in his hand. He couldn't wait to read it. He just threw the book aside, and Yuqi asked:

"What's wrong, lady? Is there something wrong with this book?"

"It's more than inappropriate," Su Meng said unhappily. Even someone as elegant as her couldn't hold back her anger after reading this book. "This book just writes some random things about Chang An, just to entertain the readers."

"But Ai Yu has a child now. Although she doesn't know who the father is, she and Chang An are innocent. If others read this book and think that there is something going on between them, it will not only be bad for Chang An and Li'er, but also affect Ai Yu's child."

"Although Chang'an is a marquis now, he still has to take the imperial examination. If someone uses it to make a fuss, what will he do in the future? Will he rely on this title for his whole life?"

Yuqi lowered her head and remained silent, because she had never seen Su Meng so angry.

"Su Meng!"

"Sister!"

At this time, the voices of Chang An and Gu Li came from the door. Su Meng couldn't help but sighed: "It seems that they are here to ask me something."

After saying that, she stood up, walked to the outside of the yard, and opened the door for the two of them. When she saw the serious expression on Chang An's face, she was stunned for a moment, and felt even more uneasy.

"Why are you here?" Su Meng asked.

Chang An said directly: "Let's ask about Madam Zhang."

"Ai Yu?!" The thing Su Meng was worried about happened. "You still call her Madam Zhang. Could it be that she went to look for you?"

Chang An nodded, and then he and Gu Li walked into the yard and closed the door. Then Chang An continued: "Mrs. Zhang came to me to show me that this was not her wish, and she also asked me to help her."

Su Meng led the two into the house and asked in confusion: "She came to you? And asked you to help her? Why?"

"She didn't want her child to be born under such pressure of public opinion, so she wanted to come to me and ask me to help her clarify the matter." Chang An replied.

"Clarify this matter? But this is a puddle of mud. Even if you jump over it, you will get your feet stained with mud." Su Meng said, and then sighed: "Ai Yu is really something. She is stupid and stubborn."

"Why do you say that?"

"Ai Yu is a bit like this. Her brain can think of very deep things, but she just won't think in a roundabout way. She does whatever she thinks of." Su Meng said.

"After she had the child, she came to me and cried. She was afraid that the child would not be able to survive well in that environment. After she finished crying, she said she wanted to redeem herself. Two days later, she asked me to borrow money to redeem herself."

"After seeing your book, she probably went straight to you because she was afraid you might misunderstand. Did she also promise you something? So that you would help her?"

Chang An looked at Gu Li at this time, and then nodded. Although Su Meng looked impatient, Chang An could still hear her concern for Zhang Aiyu.

"However, I don't intend to accept it. I will make things clear to her when the time comes."

"Forget it, forget it. I won't complain anymore." Su Meng drank a sip of tea, took a deep breath, and asked, "Didn't you come here today to ask something about Ai Yu? What do you want to ask?"

"Nothing," Chang An shook his head and said, "You said everything I wanted to ask when you complained just now, so I don't have anything to ask now."

Su Meng was stunned for a moment, and could only say: "Okay, you came to me today, it should not be just to ask questions, right? What else do you want to say? Hurry up and tell me, I will go dress up later."

"I want you to come and help Madam Zhang on the day when the court is held," Chang An said.

"I'm going too? Why? Am I going to testify for Ai Yu?" Su Meng was a little confused as to why Chang An's plan involved her.

Chang An explained: "Not only that, I want you to accompany her so that she can feel more at ease."

"Besides, you being by her side and testifying for her will make the matter more credible. I want her child to have a clear name and reduce the pressure on her as a mother."

"..."

Su Meng looked at Chang An with a complicated look in her eyes. She had never seen him so anxious about anyone other than Gu Li.
