Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband

After all, the mistress of a family should possess such magnanimity. How could anyone be compared to her?

She recalled the scene when Xiao Wenyin visited her not long ago. Her words and behavior when she comforted the old Princess Duan made Nanny Wei immediately feel the difference in status.

It is such a blessing that Prince Duan married the daughter of Marquis Jing'an!

Gu Qinlan said goodbye and left, but her face did not show much indignation.

How could the relationship between Princess Lao Duan and Xiao Wenyin be torn apart by a trivial matter?

After all, this is a child that you raised with your own hands, so you will naturally give him more love and care. How can you let go easily?

It’s just a pity that the whole story of that account has not yet been clarified.

Now we can only hope whether Eye Bags and Xiang Zhu can find something.

Since Princess Duan was not there, Gu Qinlan simply took the snacks and returned to her residence.

Wocan and Xiangzhu didn't make her wait too long and returned in a flash.

Xiang Zhu glanced at Gu Qinlan and said with a worried look on his face:

"Miss, I have already inquired with the account office. The people in the account office, including Lou Donglei, have no idea what this account is used for. They just clearly stated that this account... was handled by the order of Prince Duan himself."

"Prince Duan?"

Zheng Dinglian? Is it really him?

"I have personally investigated Mo Yun Zhai. It is an ordinary bookstore and does not seem to be doing very well. However..."

Wocan continued, but seemed a little hesitant at this time. She glanced at Gu Qinlan, as if weighing whether to reveal the next information.

Gu Qinlan leaned back in the chair, gently rotating the handle of the round fan, gently pressing her forehead, and said:

"But it doesn't matter."

"The owner of the bookstore is a woman... and an extremely beautiful woman..." Having said this, Wocan hastily added:

"But compared to you, young lady, she is naturally much inferior! Young lady, you are like the stars in the sky, and she is just the dust on the ground!"

Gu Qinlan looked at Wocan's explanation and couldn't help laughing out loud, saying:

"Don't comfort me. I'm not such a stingy woman."

After hearing this, Wocan's tense face finally relaxed, while Xiang Zhu on the side said indignantly:

"Sure enough, all men in the world have the habit of cheating! I have said it before, with so much money, Prince Duan must have a mistress outside!"

"Miss, what should we do? That vixen can make Prince Duan pay 1,000 taels of silver every month, which shows that she has extraordinary means!"

Wocan rarely argued with Xiangzhu. He nodded heavily, drew the sword from his waist, and said seriously:

"Miss, do you want me to go and get rid of her?"

Gu Qinlan looked at the murderous expression on his face and couldn't help but laugh.

The slightly serious atmosphere disappeared in an instant.

Gu Qinlan put down the account book in her hand, shook her head gently, pushed away the hand holding the sword, and put the sword back into the sheath.

"How can we act rashly when the truth of this matter has not yet been revealed? Besides, even if she is the prince's concubine, if you kill her, wouldn't that be the same as making an enemy of the prince?"

"Miss, you are absolutely right. We must not let Prince Duan realize that it was us who did it."

Wocan held the sword to his chest and nodded seriously.

Xiang Zhu stroked his chin and cautiously suggested to Gu Qinlan:

"How about we hire someone to kill someone? I'll hire a killer and cover myself up. That way, no one will know it was us who did it!"

"This is a great idea." Eye Bag agreed.

Gu Qinlan looked at her eye bags, then looked at Xiang Zhu, wondering in her heart whether she should consider replacing him with a more stable subordinate who could offer advice.

Human life should not be taken lightly, and you should not let the killing intent linger in your heart. Wocan, you should investigate further and check the origins of Mo Yunzhai and the mysterious woman. We must carefully consider it from a long-term perspective.

"Okay..." Wocan and Xiangzhu clearly revealed a hint of disappointment.

When facing anyone who may threaten my lady's status, the most direct and effective method is to ruthlessly eradicate them!

However, my young lady was kind-hearted and could not bear to do it.

The poison in Zheng Fengyun has gradually been dispelled, but his body still needs some careful nursing for a while.

Because Zheng Fenghui felt deeply guilty towards Zheng Fengyun, he has been very considerate to him these days and can be said to have done his best.

At this time, Zheng Fengyun was lying on the sickbed, leisurely eating melon seeds while acting coquettishly towards Gu Qinlan, and said proudly:

"My elder brother always said that I was not smart enough, but in fact, he was the one who lacked wisdom. He was deceived and bought a poisonous snake, which almost killed both of us."

"Don't be too picky with him. I've been giving him a hard time these past few days, so I'm helping you vent your anger."

Gu Qinlan was taking Zheng Fengyun's pulse. When she heard his innocent words, she couldn't help but chuckle.

Looking at the little guy's increasingly round face, she took back her hand and gently tapped his forehead, pretending to be serious and said:

"How come you don't know how to address people?"

Zheng Fengyun covered his head in pain, his face wrinkled into a ball. He looked at Gu Qinlan with resentment and muttered:

"I was helping you get revenge, but instead of praising me, you beat me... That's really unreasonable..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Gu Qinlan was about to raise her hand to hit him again, so he quickly hugged her arm tightly and said in a playful and flattering manner:

"Mother, please stop hitting me. If you keep hitting me, I will become stupid! If I become stupid, how can I learn archery from you? My dragon tongue bow can't wait to spread its wings and fly high!"

Gu Qinlan listened to the little guy's witty remarks, feeling both angry and amused. She gently pulled out her arm and pinched his nose with a bit of doting:

"How much more stupid can you be? I think you are quite clever."

After saying that, Gu Qinlan handed the bowl of stewed medicine to Zheng Fengyun and said gently:

"Drink it. Your body still needs at least half a month to recuperate. During this time, don't let your mind wander."

"what?"

Zheng Fengyun frowned, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. Was she deliberately making fun of him?

Gu Qinlan raised her eyebrows slightly and said nothing.

At this time, Zheng Huiyi happened to walk over with her medicine bowl and gently bumped the bowl in Zheng Fengyun's hand, making a "clang" sound.

"Second brother, cheers!" Zheng Huiyi said in a baby voice.

Zheng Fengyun looked at his little sister's adorable appearance and couldn't help rolling his eyes. He tilted his head back and drank the medicine in one gulp. His posture was extremely heroic.

Zheng Fengyun's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with a sigh:

"Well, my elder brother is stupid, my younger sister is also stupid, but I am smart! It seems that in the future, the support of Prince Duan's Mansion will depend on me!"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Huiyi stared at Zheng Fengyun with sparkling eyes and asked curiously:

"Second brother, are you planning to take over from our father and become the future god of war of our Western Wei Dynasty?"

"Of course! You are a girl, and your elder brother is weak and can't carry heavy loads. We can only rely on me!"

Zheng Fengyun felt deeply the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, especially now that he had a cheap stepmother. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart... Looking at Gu Qinlan, he thought to himself that his stepmother was so beautiful that she must not be able to endure any hardship.
