Oh my god, can you play like this?

Every time Gu Lanzhi saw Baoer, he wanted to hug her and kiss her, but the injuries on his body did not allow him to do so. Not to mention hugging the child, even moving would hurt.

Even though the healing time was longer this morning, it still hadn't healed completely and the wound would still tear.

This was not possible in ancient times. It would have been really difficult without suturing techniques!

Baoer got a new name and happily skipped in front. The eldest lady supported Gu Lanzhi and followed slowly behind, walking towards the dining hall together.

The Gu family had never split up, so everyone in the family went to the dining hall for their meals.

But now the mother and son of the third room felt guilty, so they asked the servants to take the meals to their own yard to eat early.

The eldest lady arrived at the dining hall, helped Gu Lanzhi to sit down, and then happily told everyone about Baoer's name.

When Gu Nanwan heard that Baoer was named after her, she felt so warm in her heart, and her eyes became even gentler when she looked at Gu Lanzhi.

Yin Heng went to court early, so the only ones who came to the dining hall to eat were the eldest lady, Gu Lanzhi, Gu Nanwan and the children.

Officials of this dynasty would go to court without eating breakfast. After all, you couldn't ask the emperor for leave saying you wanted to go to the bathroom while in court. This would be considered a breach of etiquette in front of the palace and you would be punished.

In order to avoid such things from happening, officials not only don't eat breakfast first after waking up, they don't even drink water.

Gu Lanzhi recalled all this when he found out that Yin Heng did not come for breakfast, which made him even more reluctant to go to court.

When I graduated from college, I chose to be an anchor because I didn’t want to live a nine-to-five life!

Now, I have to go to work after coming to ancient times. Gu Lanzhi felt depressed while eating breakfast.

Gu Lanzhi didn't say anything because he was depressed, but the others didn't say anything simply because they were following dining etiquette, and they implemented the principle of not talking while eating very thoroughly.

After finishing breakfast, the boys went to school. The weather was good today, so Gu Lanzhi asked Mo Yi to put a rocking chair in the yard so that they could bask in the sun and drink medicinal tea leisurely.

The eldest lady and Gu Nanwan sat beside him to keep him company. Gu Nanwan was embroidering while the eldest lady was making clothes for Baoer.

"By the way, brother, why didn't I see Ersansiwu and the others?" the eldest lady asked while sewing clothes.

Mo one, two, three, four, five to Mo ten are all guards trained by Gu Lanzhi's father for Gu Lanzhi. Mo one and Mo two are visible guards, and Mo three to Mo ten are hidden guards.

"When I returned to Beijing, there were still some unfinished business at the border. I left two, three, and four at the border to clean up the mess. Five, six, seven, and eight were scattered around Beijing to deal with the rumors. Ninety was with me."

After answering the eldest lady, Gu Lanzhi smiled faintly, "It just so happens that there is nothing to do right now, Mo Yi, go call the fourth young master over."

Seeing his master's smile, Mo Yi also curled his lips, knowing that the Fourth Young Master was in trouble, and he quickly went to pass on the message.

The eldest lady and Gu Nanwan looked at each other, both feeling a little worried.

Gu Shurui was taught by his mother not to be close to them, but after all, he is a member of the Gu family, and they don't want the two brothers to become alienated.

But the whole Kyoto city knew about Gu Shurui snatching the fifth prince. It was Gu Shurui who first disregarded the brotherhood. Gu Lanzhi really wanted to do something to Gu Shurui, and the two of them had no reason to speak well of Gu Shurui.

So the mother and son secretly decided that no matter what Gu Lanzhi did, they would not interfere.

It didn't take long before Gu Shurui appeared in the yard, and with him came his good mother.

Gu Lanzhi was enjoying the sun with his eyes closed. Even when he knew the two people had arrived, he did not open his eyes and continued to bask in the sun.

The Third Madam acted like an elder, came to Gu Lanzhi and asked with a fake smile, "Brother, how are you?"

Gu Lanzhi still didn't open his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "I haven't seen the Third Madam since I returned home yesterday. If I hadn't asked someone to call Fourth Brother over, would you have heard this greeting from the Third Madam?"

After saying that, he lazily opened his eyes a little and looked at the two people in front of him.

The third lady looked embarrassed but still maintained a smile on her face, while Gu Shurui lowered his head slightly with no expression on his face.

Gu Lanzhi was too lazy to watch Third Madam acting in front of him, and said calmly: "Fourth brother has been raised in the mansion since he was a child, how come he can't even say hello to Aunt and Sister?

Or do you think that Auntie and Sister are not worthy of greetings from you, the future Fifth Prince's consort?

Madam San, your son is really well raised!"

Just a few words made the Third Lady and Gu Shurui break out in cold sweats.

When Gu Lanzhi asked someone to call Gu Shurui, the mother and son knew that something bad must be going to happen. Now, listening to Gu Lanzhi saying that Gu Shurui would be the future consort of the fifth prince, the mother and son not only did not feel happy, but were horrified instead.

Gu Shurui realized it belatedly and quickly bowed respectfully to the eldest lady and greeted Gu Nanwan.

Gu Lanzhi rolled his eyes at Gu Shurui with disdain, "You are so dull, I am curious, how did you catch the eye of the Fifth Prince?"

Gu Lanzhi was really curious. He really didn't see what was so attractive about Gu Shurui. Whether it was the Gu Shurui he saw now or the Gu Shurui in his original memory, there was nothing outstanding about him!

Including this time, Gu Lanzhi has met Gu Shurui twice since he came back, but Gu Shurui's performance both times was hard to describe.

Gu Lanzhi really couldn't imagine how he hooked up with the Fifth Prince. What attracted the Fifth Prince to him? This really made Gu Lanzhi extremely curious.

Gu Nanwan had heard the rumors about Gu Shurui and the fifth prince a long time ago. She was very angry from the moment she heard the rumor, but her mother-in-law would not let her return to her parents' home, so even if she wanted to come back and ask Gu Shurui, she couldn't do it.

After Gu Lanzhi came back yesterday, she had forgotten about Gu Shurui's matter. Now, listening to Gu Lanzhi's questions and looking at this fourth brother, Gu Nanwan felt very disgusted.

When Gu Shurui heard Gu Lanzhi's question, he really didn't know how to answer. He couldn't tell Gu Lanzhi how he deliberately approached and flattered the Fifth Prince. He could only stand there with his head lowered, his face flushed with shame.

Gu Lanzhi waited for a while but didn't hear Gu Shurui's answer. He looked at Gu Shurui strangely, "Go ahead! I really want to know."

Gu Shurui looked at Gu Lanzhi with a flushed face, "If Third Brother wants to humiliate me, I have nothing to say."

"Humiliation? When did I humiliate you?

I'm just curious and want to ask you how you get along with the Fifth Prince. Is this an insult to you? You've already done it, so why can't I ask you?"

"You..." Gu Shurui felt even more ashamed and angry, but he only dared to glare at Gu Lanzhi and didn't dare to say anything else.
