The prince's wife is even more cruel, and the weak prince is afraid of his wife.

The atmosphere in the Yangxin Palace was very strange at this time. Gu Meng was still kneeling on the ground, and His Majesty also slowly walked down from the high seat.

Then he walked in front of Gu Meng and looked down at her. Gu Meng was wearing an exquisite strapless palace dress, which outlined her graceful body lines.

When Gu Meng saw His Majesty standing in front of him, he raised his eyes inadvertently and met His Majesty's gaze. Their eyes exchanged for a moment, as if countless electric currents were pulling between them.

Then Gu Meng seemed to be frightened and suddenly lowered his eyebrows.

His Majesty couldn't help but lift up Gu Meng's face with his big hand, and saw that Gu Meng's eyes were red, completely lacking the graceful look just now.

"Why, are you afraid of me?" His Majesty stroked her face all the way to the place on her chest where the phoenix birthmark was, then stopped and said.

But that hand was always stroking the birthmarked phoenix, but his hand was too big and would always accidentally touch Gu Meng's red sand.

Maybe this body has been made too sensitive by the prince, causing it to tremble uncontrollably when touched.

Gu Meng knew that His Majesty would not let her die, because she knew it the first time His Majesty summoned her to see the phoenix birthmark.

Your Majesty is here for your own life, otherwise I would not have kept pestering the old monk and asking him for help.

"No, son..." Gu Meng responded with a trembling voice.

But before he could finish, he saw a man in a black robe walking out from the darkness and bowing slightly to His Majesty.

Said: "I'm ready."

"Take her in." Gu Meng looked at the man in black robe and thought of her previous experience, her eyes narrowed slightly.

Then she hugged His Majesty's thigh and said in the charming voice she usually used to flirt with the Crown Prince: "Father, can you accompany me? I'm scared."

But Your Majesty has seen all kinds of people, so how could he be tempted by her appearance?

Seeing her disheveled clothes and the phoenix birthmark on her chest, His Majesty somehow got inspired and picked up Gu Meng and carried her to the dark room.

----------------------------------------------------------

The virtual surveillance that Xiao Lan placed on Gu Meng also disappeared. It was hard to understand why she did this.

If what she muttered about her past life was true and she was reborn, why would she do such a cheap thing? She already knew how the future would develop, so why would she still get entangled in this turbid water?

"You said so, Xiaobai."

When Xiaobai saw the man in black robe, he bared his teeth and hissed non-stop.

It didn't even hear what Xiao Lan asked it.

Xiao Lan felt relieved to see that Qianqian was fine. As for what she didn't understand now, she would ask Qianqian after she woke up.

As the heavy palace gate slowly opened, only a handful of people could be seen walking outside the door.

Some people were looking around, trying to see if they could find out anything.

-----------------------------------------

When Gu Yuan saw that he had finally left the palace, he could no longer suppress his inner complaints and questioned his father angrily.

But he didn't know that the final punishment for his actions in the palace fell on Gu Meng.

But Gu Yuan didn't care. After all, a daughter's job was to help support the family. If she couldn't even solve such a small problem, she wasn't worthy of being his daughter.

"Father, why did you demote my mother to a concubine?

My mother has taken care of this family all her life. Even if she has no credit, she has worked hard.

How can you be so cruel? "

Well, before the imperial edict arrived, her own son had already made a big fuss about the fact that she had been demoted to a concubine.

I wonder what Mrs. Gu would think when she hears this?

Gu Yuanzhong looked back at Eunuch Li who had been escorting him out, and saw that the corners of his mouth were twisted into a strange arc.

There was a cunning look in her eyes that she didn't usually see, and she blinked at Gu Yuanzhong.

As the heavy palace door closed, the gaze between the two was interrupted.

I don’t know if this will be the last time we meet.

Gu Yuanzhong felt a wave of emotion in his heart. This old man only hoped that he could leave Shangjing City alive in the end.

There was a man in the dark whose eyes turned red when he saw Eunuch Li.

Seeing that his father didn't say anything, Gu Yuan shouted, "Father, why?"

Gu Yuanzhong looked at it as if it was something dirty, and asked, "Didn't your mother teach you manners?"

"What?" Gu Yuan got furious when he heard someone mention the rules.

Before he could finish his nonsense, Gu Min stepped forward to stop his reckless behavior and advised him.

"If you still want your daughter to marry the Third Prince, then be content.

Otherwise, you will end up in disgrace or death, it’s up to you.”

When Gu Qian heard about herself and saw people gathering around her, she quickly went over to stop Gu Yuan.

"Dad! Dad! Dad! Now is not the time to question."

The third prince had already been taken away by his mother, but within a short while, he sneaked away on his own.

This made Concubine Hua very angry. She repeatedly warned her husband not to get involved with the daughter of the second branch of the Gu family, but she didn't expect to be entangled again.

"These two sisters are really weird." Hua Fei said and threw the Buddhist beads in her hand to the ground.

"Yes!" The nanny also agreed, and respectfully picked up the Buddhist beads on the ground, wiped the unnecessary dust on them with a handkerchief, and then handed them to Concubine Hua.

Then he said indignantly: "I don't know what kind of magic potion she used to make the Third Prince so confused that he can't tell right from wrong."

"However, fortunately, she is only a concubine. As long as the position of the principal wife is vacant, Hong'er still has a chance." Concubine Hua said.

After a while, he asked, "Did that old man Gu Yuanzhong really return the national scepter to Your Majesty?"

"Yes, I just met Eunuch Li and asked around, and it's absolutely true." The nanny responded.

Concubine Hua pursed her lips slightly and looked at the pearls and jade on her head, but there was not a trace of joy in her heart.

Then he said: "The next step is to see who will take over the national scepter. Send someone to investigate His Majesty's recent movements."

"Yes," Mammy replied.

As soon as the third prince arrived at the palace gate, he saw Gu Qian pulling a man's sleeve. He walked forward angrily and pulled Gu Qian into his arms.

Then he said, "Damn it! Who is he?"

"Your Highness, why are you here?" As soon as Gu Qian saw the third prince, she put her arms around his waist and called out happily.

Today is definitely a good day for me, Gu Qian, otherwise, how could everything go so smoothly.

Just as she vowed to marry the Third Prince, he begged His Majesty to grant the marriage.

Although I am not the principal wife, I am confident that the position of principal wife will be mine sooner or later. Thinking of this, I rubbed the third prince’s chest.

When Gu Yuan heard about the Third Prince, he stayed where he was as quiet as a chicken, watching his daughter flirting with the Third Prince.

After a while, the Third Prince saw that it was Gu Yuan and said, "It turns out to be my father-in-law. I am sorry for the insolence."

When Gu Yuan heard the name "father-in-law", he couldn't suppress the surging emotions in his heart, he felt like he was floating in ecstasy.

I didn't expect to hear the third prince call me father-in-law. Now I can brag about it to my friends.

Then, he no longer cared about his identity as a bastard.

He is the father-in-law of the Crown Prince and the Third Prince. With such status, who dares to look down on him?

Gu Min looked at the silly and happy father and daughter and just shook his head. Didn’t they ever think that this was a trap set by someone else?

Otherwise, how could what they wanted be achieved so smoothly?

It’s just that Yue’er’s engagement hasn’t been settled yet.
