Oh my god, can you play like this?

"Madam, there's no need to be so polite. If I marry Lan Zhi, I will be the son-in-law of the Marquis' Mansion, and we are all family.

I came here today just to get to know each other as a family. I have prepared some gifts for everyone, please accept them."

Li Beichen kept his status low. Although he said "I", he did not really treat himself as an emperor when interacting with the people in the Marquis' Mansion.

Li Beichen did not lower his status, but the people in the Marquis' Mansion did not dare to really treat the emperor as anything other than the emperor.

But Li Beichen's words did make everyone in the Marquis' Mansion less nervous than before.

The guards carried boxes of gifts prepared by Li Beichen and placed them in the main room. Because there were too many things, many boxes were also placed in the yard.

The third lady had been silent at first and her presence was very low, but when she saw the boxes of things, she didn't know what to look at.

After the Third Lady was struck by lightning last time, she really thought that it was God punishing her, so she never dared to leave the yard.

But this time it was the emperor who came to the marquis's mansion, and the third lady had to come to greet the emperor.

But the temptation of so many good things was so great for her that she forgot to control her expression.

The first lady had been secretly looking at the third lady. Seeing the third lady's greedy look, the first lady frowned unhappily, but she didn't know what to say to the third lady now.

Gu Jingcheng gave Gu Shurui a calm look, indicating him to look at the third lady.

Gu Shurui was also looking at the boxes of things, but his eyes were very clear. He was just curious about these things and wanted to see what they were.

After receiving Gu Jingcheng's eye signal, he also looked at his mother.

But after seeing the greedy look of the Third Madam, Gu Shurui just felt ashamed.

Their family was a marquisate after all, and when his brother returned from a victorious battle, the former emperor also gave him many rewards. Gu Lanzhi did not keep any of them for himself, but distributed them all to the children in each courtyard.

The third wife also got a lot of good things, but how could she still have such an expression?

Gu Shurui never thought her mother was petty before, but now...why does she seem dissatisfied with everything about her mother?

When people’s mindset changes, their perspective on things changes.

Li Beichen didn't care about the Third Madam, mainly because all his attention was on Gu Lanzhi.

When Gu Lanzhi was not pregnant, Li Beichen couldn't take his eyes off Gu Lanzhi, let alone now that she is pregnant.

Gu Shurui quietly gave his mother an elbow, which made the third lady feel hurt and she looked at Gu Shurui with dissatisfaction.

Then he met Gu Shurui's cold gaze.

The third lady was shocked, and then she put away her greed, lowered her eyes and behaved herself.

Gu Lanzhi saw all of this, but he said nothing.

Just like he had said before, if the Third Madam could behave herself and not cause trouble, he, Gu Lanzhi, would be able to let her live in peace until her death.

But the prerequisite is that the third lady must be honest.

The news that the emperor sent Gu Lanzhi back to the Marquis' Mansion in an imperial sedan chair, brought several carts of gifts, and personally helped Gu Lanzhi get off the carriage spread throughout the entire Kyoto city at an extremely fast speed.

Everyone was already very surprised when the emperor named Gu Lanzhi as the queen today. Now hearing such news, many court officials could no longer sit still.

They all found people from their respective camps to discuss the emperor's intentions.

In the eyes of these people, whatever the emperor does has special significance.

In fact, it’s no wonder that they reacted so strongly. The emperor leaving the palace was a big deal in itself, and he brought so many gifts to personally send Marquis Gu back home, which was even more unusual.

The emperor and Gu Lanzhi, who were at the center of the storm, chatted cordially with the people in the Marquis' Mansion for a long time.

The people in the marquis' mansion went from being in awe of the emperor at first to becoming familiar with him.

Many people were watching outside the Marquis' Mansion, all waiting to see His Majesty's expression when he left the Mansion, and how long he stayed in the Mansion.

Gu Lanzhi is pregnant now. The family is still chatting, but Gu Lanzhi has already started yawning.

When Li Beichen saw that Gu Lanzhi was sleepy, he wanted to go back to his yard with Gu Lanzhi and coax her to sleep.

But he left the palace with great fanfare, so he had to put on a full show, and he had to return to the palace in the imperial sedan with great fanfare.

After returning to the palace, I will come to the Marquis' Mansion in private, and that will be a matter for later.

Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion escorted the emperor out of the palace. Before getting in the car, Li Beichen reminded Gu Lanzhi to be careful and not to fall down because he was sleepy and didn't look at the road. Anyway, he was very worried.

Li Beichen couldn't ask Gu Lanzhi not to see him off. After all, everyone's eyes were definitely on the Marquis' Mansion, and the show had to go on.

There was no other way, he could only give Gu Lanzhi more instructions.

Finally, Gu Lanzhi became annoyed by Li Beichen's nagging and urged Li Beichen to get on the imperial chariot.

After seeing the emperor off, Gu Jingcheng hurriedly pulled Gu Lanzhi to Gu Lanzhi's yard. Even when the eldest lady called them, Gu Jingcheng ignored her.

As soon as he entered the yard, Gu Jingcheng looked at Gu Lanzhi very seriously and asked, "Brother, are you...are you pregnant?"

Gu Lanzhi was not surprised at all to hear Gu Jingcheng's words.

Because this child is very smart, Li Beichen has been supporting and taking care of him, and Gu Jingcheng will definitely see it.

So Gu Lanzhi didn't need to hide it from Gu Jingcheng and admitted it very generously.

"Yes, I'm pregnant. I've been pregnant for more than a month."

"You...you..." Gu Jingcheng was anxious and didn't know how to tell his rebellious brother.

At the same time, his impression of His Majesty, which had just improved a little, immediately fell to the bottom again.

His brother is ignorant and doesn't care about these things, so how can His Majesty be so confused!

His brother is pregnant before he even gets married to His Majesty. How should people in the world view his brother and his little nephew?

Gu Jingcheng was extremely anxious.

Gu Lanzhi guessed what Gu Jingcheng was thinking, smiled, put his arm around Gu Jingcheng's shoulders, and told him about what happened that day when Di Meng drugged him.

After hearing the whole story, Gu Jingcheng felt less resentful towards the emperor, but he still looked at Gu Lanzhi's belly worriedly.

Gu Lanzhi flicked Gu Jingcheng's forehead and said with a smile, "At such a young age, you are quite worried.

You can imagine that this child might be criticized, but His Majesty can't imagine that? He will handle this matter well, you can rest assured. "

Hearing Gu Lanzhi say this, Gu Jingcheng's brows were still furrowed, "Brother, although there are reasons for this, but... will His Majesty really not look down on you?"

In ancient times, losing one's virginity before marriage would indeed be looked down upon by the husband's family. It was normal for Gu Jingcheng to have such concerns, not to mention that his brother was going to marry into the royal family!

"Look down on me? Hahahaha..." Gu Lanzhi laughed extremely happily.

But Gu Lanzhi didn't want to tell his secret to Gu Jingcheng. It's not that he didn't trust Gu Jingcheng, but Gu Jingcheng was still too young, and knowing too much would not be a good thing for Gu Jingcheng.

Besides, it was not easy for him to tell Gu Jingcheng in detail what happened between him and Li Beichen.

"You! You are destined to worry.

Don't worry, His Majesty will never look down on me, not in this life, and the things you worry about will never happen.

His Majesty loves me very much. If you don’t believe me, you can ask His Majesty the next time you see him.”

Gu Lanzhi was just perfunctorily answering Gu Jingcheng, but Gu Jingcheng really took it to heart, and when he saw His Majesty again, he had a very serious talk with Li Beichen.
