The wife of two taels of silver

"I came here to ask you, what are my chances of winning against a wizard?" Gu An asked after taking a sip of tea.

Liu Sanyou was silent, then said, "Brother, I know you're angry, but this wizard is unfathomable. Even if we join forces, the chance of us killing him is no more than 30%."

With a light click, Gu An placed the teacup on the table and nodded, "I understand."

Gu An stopped talking nonsense and stood up to walk out. Liu San looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. After watching Gu An take a few steps, he finally couldn't help but said, "Brother, don't be impulsive."

Gu An turned his head and smiled, "Don't worry, I cherish my life very much now and won't act impulsively. Go back and see my little niece."

After he finished speaking, Gu An turned around with a gloomy expression, and walked away from the spot with long strides without looking back. His tall figure walked away, as if carrying endless anger and determination.

When Gu An finally returned to his room, it was completely silent. He gently pushed the door open, his eyes first falling on Lin Haitang, who lay in bed. She was still deep in sleep, showing no signs of waking. She lay on her side, one hand resting on her cheek, her breathing steady and even, appearing to be sound asleep.

Gu An stood quietly by the bed, gazing at the beautiful woman before him. He stared silently for a long while, then finally sighed softly, slowly took off his coat, and lay down on the other side of the bed with his clothes on. Although his mind was full of thoughts, fatigue gradually took over, and soon he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Lin Haitang walked around the palace with her clothes soaking wet, with a eunuch's clothes draped over her. There were many witnesses, and the prince did not specifically order or hint that people should not tell anyone about it. It didn't take long for this matter to become a hot topic.

By the next day, the whole capital knew about it.

The sun blazed down across the vast parade ground, coating the ground in a layer of gold. Gu An, standing in the center, was acutely aware of the many eyes focused on him, accompanied by whispers and pointing. He turned his head sharply in their direction, and the crowd, previously whispering and looking at each other, suddenly fell silent. As if under a spell, each one of them feigned indifference, their mouths tightly shut. Yet, their flickering eyes and slightly stiff expressions could hardly conceal their subtle movements.

Gu An's expression remained unchanged. He ignored everyone and walked forward.

Almost everyone who was well-informed knew about it, not to mention Zhao Hongwei, who had already known about it last night.

When Zhao Hongwei saw Gu An in the training ground, he looked anxious. He pulled Gu An aside and asked in a low voice, "What's going on? Why would the prince have such thoughts about his sister-in-law?"

Gu An said nothing and stared at Zhao Hongwei coldly.

Zhao Hongwei noticed Gu An's expression and realized he had spoken out of turn. He slapped himself lightly on the mouth and said anxiously, "Oh, that's not what I meant. I meant that you should be more careful these days. The whole capital is buzzing with commotion right now!"

Gu An retracted his gaze and said coldly, "The prince's words and deeds have been inappropriate, which has damaged my wife's reputation."

"It's not us who should be paying attention, it's the prince."

Zhao Hongwei sighed deeply, wondering how such a thing could happen.

"You guys just live your life peacefully. How can you rob the prince openly?" After a while, Zhao Hongwei said angrily in a low voice.

But yesterday's behavior was almost like robbery.
