Early the next morning, Gu Baizhou left the mansion alone without any servants. Judging from the direction he was heading, Yu Wangfei guessed that he was going to file a complaint with the Seventh Prince.

Just when Yu Wangfei wanted to go back to Fangfeiyuan to have a good rest, Yunhua suddenly received an order asking her to take Yu Wangfei to the theater.

Helpless Yu Wangfei had to go to the theater.

Now, even if Yu Wangfei goes out, no one will suspect where she is going, and no one will follow her secretly.

After arriving at the theater, Chu Yuheng specially took Yu Wangfei to an excellent viewing point.

From this position, you can clearly see the entire street on the left, and the plays being performed in the theater on the right.

"I was late yesterday." Chu Yuheng poured tea for Yu Wangfei, "Today, I will invite Feifei to watch a play as compensation."

Yu Wangfei glanced at the stage downstairs on the right: "Haven't you seen this play before?"

In response, Chu Yuheng just smiled and turned his gaze to the left.

At this time, Gu Baizhou came to Chu Fei's house.

Although it was just the beginning of winter and the weather was not extremely cold, many charcoal fires had been lit in the Seventh Prince's mansion, and the doors and windows were sealed with heavy curtains to prevent any cold air from entering.

Chu Fei was holding a hot water bottle and wearing a thick cloak. He looked extremely weak.

Seeing him coming, Chu Fei did not have a good expression on his face, while Feng Zhao was full of anger, as if there was a deep conflict between the two.

"Please forgive me for coming to visit you without any reason today, Seventh Prince." Gu Baizhou bowed respectfully to Chu Fei.

"You also know it's rash." Feng Zhao sneered.

"I came here today to tell the Seventh Prince the truth." Gu Baizhou stood up carefully. "Yesterday, I learned that the Seventh Prince had been deceived. I was deeply distressed and came here early in the morning to tell you."

"Has this prince been deceived?" Chu Fei looked at Gu Baizhou with interest and motioned him to continue.

"Yesterday, the Gu family learned that the child in Yu's belly was actually from the Ninth Prince Chu Yuheng, and the Ninth Prince also personally admitted that it was his. Your Highness the Seventh Prince, you have been deceived by Yu."

Chu Fei showed no expression when he heard that. Feng Zhao quickly pulled the corner of his clothes, and Chu Fei immediately pretended to be surprised.

"That bitch Yu keeps saying that the child is yours, but actually it's Chu Yuheng's. I really can't bear to see you being deceived, so I came to tell you." Gu Baizhou's eyes were red, and he pretended to be heartbroken.

"What? This is true. But wasn't Yu found for me by your Cheng'en Marquis Mansion? Could it be that you teamed up with the Ninth Prince to deceive me? What is your intention?" Chu Fei pushed all the blame onto the Gu family in a few words.

Gu Baizhou knelt down immediately after hearing this and said, "The Marquis' Mansion has no intention of being disloyal to Your Highness. It is the Ninth Prince who has gone too far. Please make the decision, Your Highness."

Chu Fei sneered, not knowing whether the "His Highness" Gu Baizhou was referring to was the eldest prince or him.

Chu Yuheng had already found Chu Fei at midnight yesterday, and told Chu Fei everything that had happened in the Marquis' Mansion, leaving him to carry out his own thoughts.

So he guessed that the Gu family would definitely come to complain today, so he asked the servants to decorate the room like this early in the morning.

"I believe in the Ninth Uncle. He will never do anything to harm me." Chu Fei glared at Gu Baizhou seriously.

"Every word I said is true. Yesterday, Chu Yuheng personally admitted that the child in Yu Wangfei's belly was his. If Your Highness doesn't believe it, you can interrogate everyone in the Cheng'en Marquis's mansion."

"The Imperial Uncle has been very good to me since I was a child. Tell me, should I trust you, an outsider, or my relatives?" There was a hint of oppression in Chu Fei's tone.

He hoped that Gu Baizhou would retreat when he saw difficulty and not let him kick people out. After all, he was feeling a little hot now, and he was afraid that if Gu Baizhou stayed any longer, he would be exposed.

"Your Highness the Seventh Prince..." Gu Baizhou looked at Chu Fei in disbelief.

He couldn't believe that Chu Fei actually trusted Chu Yuheng so much and didn't even have any suspicion towards him.

"I believe in the character of the Emperor's uncle. He will definitely not do such a dirty thing as to snatch his nephew away!"

"Master Gu, our Highness knows what the Gu family wants. As long as the Gu family is loyal, we will naturally not treat the Marquis' Mansion unfairly. Otherwise." Feng Zhao took a step forward and looked down at Gu Baizhou, his eyes full of threats.

They will naturally not treat unfairly those who are loyal to them. If they return this loyalty to others, then don't blame them for being ruthless.

"I understand." Gu Baizhou understood what they meant and slowly stood up. "I'll take my leave."

After all, the agreement between Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion and the Seventh Prince is still there, so they still have hope.

After Gu Baizhou left the house, Chu Fei quickly took off his cloak, threw away the hot water bottle, and ran outside to breathe deeply.

"I should have issued an order that no one could enter the Seventh Prince's Mansion."

"Wouldn't it be easier to find out that you are faking illness this way?" Feng Zhao smiled indulgently.

Yu Wangfei, who was sipping tea at the moment, had some waist pain. Wearing a fake belly these days was a bit straining his waist. Now there was no one else around, so Yu Wangfei simply took out the fake belly.

Seeing Yu Wangfei about to take off her clothes, Chu Yuheng's eyes suddenly lit up: "Fei Fei, you can't do that here."

"What are you thinking about?" Yu Wangfei glared at him speechlessly and straightened her clothes.

Seeing that Yu Wangfei just wanted to take out the fake belly, Chu Yuheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought that Yu Wangfei was in the mood and wanted to play here, but if she really wanted to, he would satisfy her.

At this moment, Yu Wangfei suddenly discovered Gu Baizhou's carriage speeding past on the street.

Judging from the direction, it should have come from Chu Fei’s residence.

"Did you reach an agreement with the Seventh Prince so quickly?" Yu Wangfei asked in confusion.

"Probably we didn't reach an agreement." Chu Yuheng looked out the window with confidence.

"You and the Seventh Prince have a secret." Yu Wangfei guessed.

"You have already seen the first scene. Wait a little longer, there is a second one." Chu Yuheng smiled and handed Yu Wangfei a cup of tea.

Now Yu Wangfei understood what Chu Yuheng meant by the word "drama".

Gu Baizhou must have acted like that because he did not gain any benefit at Chu Fei's house, or because he was humiliated by the Seventh Prince, which was why he drove the carriage away in anger.

But judging from the direction of the carriage, it should be heading towards the palace. He is going to enter the palace.

Suddenly Yu Wangfei remembered that it was the Imperial Concubine's intention to send her to the Gu family to preserve the offspring. It seemed that Gu Baizhou was going to find the Imperial Concubine.

Sure enough, Gu Baizhou came to the palace and asked the eunuch to take him to the imperial concubine's bedroom.

Women in the harem are not allowed to interfere in politics, let alone meet with officials from the previous dynasty. This is the rule, so the imperial concubine is unwilling to meet Gu Baizhou.

But the agreement between her and the Gu family could not be known to others, so she had to have someone secretly bring Gu Baizhou into the bedroom, for fear that he would be seen by others.
