Oh my god, can you play like this?

"Brother, you can't force feelings. Since the Fifth Prince is interested in Shu Rui, it's not Shu Rui's fault.

If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for being on the battlefield all these years and not preparing for your marriage in Beijing." Seeing that Gu Lanzhi was starting to get angry with her son, the third wife quickly stepped forward to help her son out.

Hearing what the Third Madam said, Gu Lanzhi was stunned.

In his previous life, he had heard of such remarks that the one who is not loved among three people is the mistress. He thought that such ideas only existed in modern society. He never expected that it was the same in ancient times!

Although what the Third Lady said is different from what is said in modern society, it means the same thing!

This is really like a knife stabbing your butt, it really opened your eyes!

When the First Madam and Gu Nanwan heard what the Third Madam said, their three perspectives were shattered.

"Haha... then according to what Third Madam meant, I shouldn't be a stumbling block for the Fourth Young Master and the Fifth Prince. I shouldn't pursue the fact that the Fourth Young Master deliberately approached and seduced my fiancé while I was away from the capital, right?" Gu Lanzhi looked at Third Madam and Gu Shurui jokingly.

The Third Madam did not answer Gu Lanzhi's words, and there was even a slight smile on the corner of her mouth. Doesn't this mean that she agrees with what Gu Lanzhi said!

Gu Lanzhi looked at Gu Shurui, "Does the Fourth Young Master mean the same thing?"

Gu Shurui didn't say anything either, and lowered his head slightly.

Gu Lanzhi was really amused by the two people's wild ideas, "You two, I really don't understand your train of thought.

I would like to ask, do you think that the Fifth Prince, as a prince, would give up the person who is most beneficial to his competition for the throne because of feelings?

Do you think that the fourth brother can assist the fifth prince better than a powerful general like me?"

Hit the snake at its most vulnerable part. Gu Lanzhi's words strangled the two men.

"Besides, are you so sure that the relationship between the Fifth Prince and the Fourth Young Master is unbreakable? Will the Fifth Prince abandon a general like me for a mediocre and powerless Fourth Young Master?

Moreover, if, as you said, the Fourth Young Master and the Fifth Prince are together, then you will be making enemies with our General's Mansion. Don't even think of asking our General's Mansion to be your backer in the future. It would be a mercy if the General's Mansion doesn't take advantage of you.

In this situation, do you think the Fifth Prince can still treat the Fourth Young Master as lovingly as before?

Do you think the Fifth Prince is an ordinary citizen? Does he not covet power at all?"

Gu Lanzhi looked at Gu Shurui's changing expression, with no intention of letting Gu Shurui go, and continued, "Let me think, how long has it been since our Fourth Young Master last met the Fifth Prince?

It seems to have been at least a month?

Oh, by the way, when the news of my great victory reached the capital, the Fourth Young Master couldn’t meet the Fifth Prince anymore, right?

Fourth Master, Third Madam, why do you think this is happening?"

After hearing what Gu Lanzhi said, the mother and son were silently calculating the time and found that it was just as Gu Lanzhi said. Ever since he learned of Gu Lanzhi's victory, the Fifth Prince refused to see Gu Shurui for various reasons. Even if they met him by chance on the street, the Fifth Prince would immediately turn around and leave.

After figuring out all this, the mother and son turned pale.

"Do you still think that the Fifth Prince will abandon me for Gu Shurui?"

The mother and son looked at each other and no one spoke.

"I really admire you two. Even if you put your two brains together, you still can't figure out these things. How do you have the confidence to do those things?

Are you so sure that I will die on the battlefield and never come back?"

The mother and son lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Let's not talk about whether I will come back or not. Just look at the brains of the two of you. You were played to death and didn't even know how you died. And you dare to reach out to the royal family? You really are not afraid of death!"

The mother and son lowered their heads even more and said nothing.

Looking at the two men with their heads down and dejected expressions, Gu Lanzhi suddenly felt that it was meaningless.

Originally, he thought that these two people would have such high fighting power that it would add some fun to his boring recuperation life. But now, seeing them like this, Gu Lanzhi was disappointed and no longer had the idea of ​​teasing them.

"Fourth Young Master, tell me the truth, do you really like the Fifth Prince?"

Gu Shurui didn't know what Gu Lanzhi meant by asking this. He lowered his head and looked at his mother, then chose to continue pretending to be dumb.

Gu Lanzhi irritably said "tsk", "Just tell me when I ask you!"

Seeing Gu Shurui's spineless appearance, Gu Lanzhi's voice also became slightly angry.

Gu Shurui was originally lacking in confidence when facing Gu Lanzhi, and he also had the psychological shadow of being suppressed by Gu Lanzhi since childhood. When he heard Gu Lanzhi's angry voice, Gu Shurui closed his eyes and blurted out, "Yes!"

After he finished speaking, Gu Shurui finally realized what he had said and raised his head in panic to look at Gu Lanzhi's expression.

But when he saw Gu Lanzhi clearly, he was stunned.

He originally thought that Gu Lanzhi would be angry and furious after hearing that he liked the fifth prince, but not only did he not see any anger on Gu Lanzhi's face, but Gu Lanzhi was actually smiling!

Gu Shurui was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but his nerves tensed up again in an instant, because he felt that Gu Lanzhi was smiling at him, and must be planning something.

"Don't be so nervous!" Gu Lanzhi felt all of Gu Shurui's emotions, thanks to his improved mental strength last night.

"If you really like the Fifth Prince, I can help you."

"What did you say?" Gu Shurui and the Third Madam looked at Gu Lanzhi in surprise, as well as Gu Nanwan beside him.

Only the eldest lady remained calm, because she was the only one who knew all of Gu Shurui's plans.

"If you really like the Fifth Prince, I can help you." Gu Lanzhi kindly repeated it to Gu Shurui.

"Really?" Gu Shurui looked at Gu Lanzhi hopefully.

Looking at Gu Shurui's hopeful eyes, Gu Lanzhi sighed slightly in his heart.

The Fourth Young Master is sincere to the Fifth Prince, but as for the Fifth Prince, alas... the Fourth Young Master's sincerity is wasted.

"Really, I can help you, but you have to agree to one request of mine."

"What request?" Gu Shurui asked anxiously.

"My request is that from today on, you have to pester the Fifth Prince like you did before I came back... No, you have to work harder than before I came back.

No matter what the Fifth Prince says or does, you must shamelessly cling to him until the Fifth Prince cannot get close to me. If you can do something with the Fifth Prince in front of someone else, so that the Fifth Prince has no choice but to marry you, that would be the best."

After hearing what Gu Lanzhi said, Gu Shurui looked at Gu Lanzhi in surprise.

"You...you...you don't want to marry the Fifth Prince at all?"
