The Return of the Marquis's Daughter

After hearing this, Qin Wenlan looked directly at Lu Minglan. She would definitely not say such words for no reason. Is someone jealous of her hot spring manor and wants to cause trouble again?

Then just bring it on. Qin Wenlan is no longer the puppet she was in her previous life. Could it be that she is still afraid of these evil spirits?

After Gu Yunzhou’s wedding, Gu Changan’s wedding date was getting closer and closer. As he had said before, the wedding date was set in the spring when flowers were blooming.

Even though Yu Shi was reluctant, she could only help Qin and Zhao Shi to get busy.

Of course, the people who were busiest and happiest among them were the third and fourth rooms. Even Aunt Li and her daughter were busy and happy, without any reluctance.

It takes quite a while to go through the whole process of the three books and six ceremonies.

As a bride-to-be, Qin Wenlan had to start her life as a real stay-at-home girl. Even if she didn't have to embroider her wedding dress herself, she still needed to pretend to do it!

From then on, the entire prosperous courtyard was extremely busy, especially Su Niang and the others who were busy with embroidery all day long. Peony, Begonia, Osmanthus, and Lihua were even more excited.

Their master is finally leaving the Qin Hou Mansion. He no longer has to see those annoying people when entering and leaving. Just thinking about it is such a thing that makes people laugh even when they are asleep.

In fact, they all knew very well in their hearts that if their master had not cared about Prince An's reputation, they would not have been able to live such a wronged life. From now on, the master would no longer have to suffer such a wrong.

After entering the twelfth lunar month, the Qin Hou Mansion was no longer as deserted as before, and the several families became more and more lively.

After all, with Qin Wenlan, the future princess, even if some people have some little thoughts in their hearts, they will not show them on the surface.

On the day of Laba, the imperial palace specially gifted Laba porridge to the Qin Hou Mansion, which had never happened before. The Qin family and the entire mansion knelt down to express their gratitude.

Even though the Laba porridge had completely cooled down by the time it reached the Qinhou Mansion, the group of people still swallowed it all, swallowing the bitter cold. After all, the emperor's grace was hard to resist, and it was even harder to let him down.

***

On this day, a memorial from the Marquis of Jing'an arrived in the capital. The Northern Frontier had once again provoked unrest, and he had already led his troops in battle several times. He had no choice but to ask His Majesty to quickly send reinforcements...

A heated debate ensued in the court over this matter.

Marquis Jing'an is now Prince Yu's future father-in-law, and Gu Jingyi is also under Marquis Jing'an's command. After a heated debate, Prince Yong was dragged into the matter without any warning.

After Prince Yong was thrown into the water, all the princes of Guyunzhou followed suit, and a new round of verbal battles ensued.

There was a cold wind howling outside, but the scene inside the carriage was quite different. Qin Wenlan and Gu Changan sat opposite each other. They had not seen each other for a long time.

The carriage swayed slowly along the wide, bluestone-paved road. The wind whistled outside, and the listener felt an inexplicable chill.

"Gu Yunzhou has already volunteered to personally lead reinforcements to the northern border to support Marquis Jing'an."

After hearing this, Qin Wenlan was stunned for a moment. When had Gu Yunzhou been so brave and fearless in his previous life?

He is a man who won't release his eagle until he sees the rabbit. He has never done such dangerous things.

The charcoal fire inside the carriage cast an ambiguous shadow over Qin Wenlan's face, and the surprise in his eyes became even more distinct under the reflection of the charcoal fire.

"What does the prince mean?" Qin Wenlan looked at Gu Changan and asked.

Gu Changan asked in return: "What do you think?"

Qin Wenlan shook his head, "The situation with Marquis Jing'an is still unclear. After all, things on the battlefield are changing rapidly.

Gu Yunzhou's behavior this time is quite interesting. Thinking about the incident with Gu Jingyi, he may not have let it go. It seems that this time he wants to..."

Gu Yunzhou would not do anything useless. Even if he wanted to gain merit on the battlefield, he would not risk going there in person, unless...

After hearing this, Gu Changan laughed and said, "I don't care if he's sincere this time, I'll secretly add fuel to the fire. Since he wants to take the credit so much, if I don't secretly help him, wouldn't it be a betrayal of our brotherhood?"

Qin Wenlan was a little surprised. "Aren't you afraid of making things worse?"

"I have some understanding of people like him."

Qin Wenlan frowned slightly, "Don't forget that there is a Yang You beside Gu Yunzhou, although Yang You is not as powerful as Shen Tang.

But he still has his wisdom, and he can't just sit there and watch Gu Yunzhou act so impulsively."

"It's because of Yang You that I do this."

Qin Wenlan immediately understood what Gu Changan meant. "You've calculated that there must be something fishy going on with Gu Yunzhou's request, and you might even have a plan."

"Gu Yunzhou has Empress Wen to stabilize his harem, so in his opinion, he is the only choice to be the crown prince.

If he could gain unexpected military merit, he would have more security in the hearts of the people.

But of course he couldn't go there in person, but wouldn't he send his confidant?

No matter who goes, as long as he is Gu Yunzhou's confidant, it is equivalent to him going there in person.

Gu Yunzhou will not lose any of the military merit."

Suddenly, a figure appeared in Qin Wenlan's mind. Yes, Gu Yunzhou has quite a few confidants, not to mention the support of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion!

She subconsciously said, "Are you planning to let Wen Ruyu's second brother Wen Ruhai go?"

"How do you know that Gu Yunzhou will send him this time?" Gu Changan looked at Qin Wenlan puzzledly.

Qin Wenlan: ...

She continued nonchalantly, "Wen Ruhai is the one among the Wen clan members who does the most for Gu Yunzhou.

He is also one of Gu Yunzhou's confidants. Of course, Gu Yunzhou wanted to give this good opportunity to make a contribution to his most trusted confidant.

So this is not difficult to guess. Could it be that you have other candidates and knew that Gu Yunzhou sent someone else this time?"

Gu Changan looked at Qin Wenlan. "That's not the case. According to my sources, Gu Yunzhou really wants Wen Ruhai to go to Northern Xinjiang this time..."

Qin Wenlan: ...

She could only pretend to be surprised and said, "It seems that I guessed the right person. I said that the Wen family members are all Gu Yunzhou's strong backing. With such an opportunity, how could they not send their own people?

I'm just afraid that Gu Yunzhou might have some other plans. After all, Wen Ruhai has personally taken action, so how could Gu Yunzhou let him do it just for the sake of military merit? "

Gu Changan was stunned when he heard Qin Wenlan's words. He had never thought that Gu Yunzhou would have other plans. "How did you know that Gu Yunzhou had other plans?"

"It's just a guess. After all, he's not the type of person that Gu Yunzhou is." Qin Wenlan sneered.
