When Mrs. Zhang heard that there was a chance of recovery, her eyes immediately lit up, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

He immediately grabbed Gu Fanchu's arm and asked in a trembling voice:

"Can the princess really be cured? Then could you please take a look for me? If I can successfully conceive a child, I will definitely thank you very much!"

Gu Fanchu felt the pain in his arm and frowned, but his voice remained unchanged:

"If Madam Zhang believes in Chu'er, then Chu'er will come to see you in person someday, okay?"

Mrs. Zhang finally realized her own loss of composure and immediately released the woman's hand. She said embarrassedly, "I... I was too excited. Princess, please... please don't mind."

Imperial Concubine Xi said to Madam Zhang with some displeasure, "Madam Zhang, you are too impatient. You can't let Chu'er diagnose you right away!"

"Yes... yes, it was I who lost my composure. Please don't be angry, Princess."

At this moment, Gu Fanchu was her life-saving straw, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with apologizing to her.

Gu Fanchu quickly waved his hands: "Mrs. Zhang, you are too kind. I am not angry. Today is my aunt's wedding day. I will come to your house to diagnose Mrs. Zhang another day."

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she immediately expressed her gratitude.

When the other ladies heard this, their expressions became noticeably restrained.

After Gu Fanchu has shown it to Madam Zhang, if he really has the ability, then they can ask him privately.

At this time, Meng Hewan, who had met with the third prince and reached an agreement, had returned to the main hall and quietly sat back next to Gu.

But he found that Gu Ruyue was staring in the direction of Concubine Xi with an ugly face.

She looked over and saw Gu Fanchu chatting harmoniously with Concubine Xi and the ladies who were surrounding them.

"Mother, it seems my sister and aunt have a very good relationship. My aunt must be very happy that she is successfully pregnant with a dragon heir. Why don't we go and congratulate her in person?"

In her opinion, Concubine Xi was indeed a capable person who could maintain favor in the harem for so many years.

They are obviously sisters, so why is Gu Ruyue so stupid and doesn’t know how to maintain a close relationship with these people?

If I can get in touch with Concubine Xi, it will be easier for me to act in the future.

After hearing what Meng Hewan said, Gu Ruyue thought about it and felt that it made sense.

So he stood up and walked slowly towards the main seat with his daughter.

Gu Fanchu was talking enthusiastically with Concubine Xi when he saw two people walking towards him.

"Sister, congratulations, you finally got what you wanted." Gu forced a smile and said a little awkwardly.

She and Gu Yunshu were not actually very close.

So even though Gu Yunshu had been in the palace for so many years, she rarely came to visit.

"Wan'er has met her aunt."

Meng Hewan stood beside Gu Ruyue with a well-behaved look on her face.

The people who were talking were interrupted, but when they saw that it was Concubine Xi's younger sister, they all shut up wisely.

"Well, I appreciate your congratulations, sister."

Concubine Xi retracted her gentle smile, and only a faint expression remained on her face.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Concubine Xi did not like her own sister, and Gu Fanchu naturally saw it too.

But I can understand it.

How could he like a younger sister who almost angered his own mother to death, who didn't recognize her own daughter, and who only brought trouble to the general's mansion?

"Wan'er, from now on, please address me as the Imperial Concubine. Although you were raised in the Marquis' Mansion, you still have commoner parents. If you continue to call me aunt, it will be inappropriate."

Concubine Xi did not hide her dislike for Meng Hewan at all.

When Meng Hewan was young, she felt sorry for her younger sister who had not been taken care of by her mother since childhood, so she loved her very much, and naturally loved her younger sister's daughter as well.

But after learning the truth, she did not blame Meng Hewan and still took care of her.

The people she sent out to investigate came back and reported that there was a lot of evidence proving that Meng Hewan had known who her biological parents were for a long time but had never mentioned it.

These little thoughts can be hidden from my silly sister, but not from her!

Meng Hewan didn't expect that Concubine Xi would slap her in the face so bluntly in public. Her face turned pale instantly, her eyes turned red, and she looked pitiful.

But I kept cursing in my heart: This damn woman, how dare she insult me ​​like this! If I get the chance in the future, I will definitely pay her back double.

The ladies around him all looked at him with disdain.

This matter caused a lot of uproar, so of course they knew about it.

Gu is really something. She doesn't want her own daughter, but she actually pampers this daughter who has no blood relationship with her.

Seeing the looks of the people around her, Meng Hewan began to tremble all over with grievance.

Gu Ruyue was naturally distressed and immediately held Meng Hewan in her arms. She said to Concubine Xi in a bad tone:

"Sister, why do you have to bully a child like this? Wan'er is my daughter and will be my daughter forever."

"Madam Hou is so funny. Auntie is just telling the truth, but how can you say that she is bullying Miss Meng?"

Gu Ruyue's voice was so loud that it attracted everyone else's attention. They all pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what was said.

Old Madam Gu, who was sitting on the side, naturally listened carefully, and immediately showed anger on her face. She wanted to stand up, but was held back by Wang on the side.

"Mom, let Chu'er handle it!"

Wang's tone showed her trust in Gu Fanchu. For some reason, she felt that Gu Fanchu could handle it.

Besides, the mother-in-law's health cannot be too bad.

Gu Fanchu stood in front of his aunt with a cold look in his eyes, facing Gu Ruyue and the others.

"How dare you! What do you have to do with what we say? It's all your fault. If it weren't for you..."

Gu Ruyue looked at Gu Fanchu, who was dressed in luxurious clothes and had a dignified expression, with disgust.

"If not, what? Madam Hou is really funny. She only knows how to blame others for her mistakes all day long. If you say it's presumptuous, then it's Madam Hou who is presumptuous. I am a princess personally appointed by His Majesty. What right do you have to yell at me?"

Gu Fanchu ignored Gu Ruyue's angry expression and said with sarcasm and a hint of provocation.

"You... I am your elder after all, how dare you treat me like this? Aren't you afraid that others will say you are unfilial..."

Gu Ruyue originally wanted to say, "I am your mother," but if she did so, it would make Meng Hewan even more sad.

"Elders? Filial piety? Coming from Madam Hou's mouth, it's really ironic. Someone who almost pissed off her own mother to death for a fake daughter is actually full of morality."

The ladies in the hall burst into exclamations, it turned out that this thing was true!

There were rumors before, saying that Gu almost angered old lady Gu to death, but I didn't expect it to be true...

Then this Marquis's wife is really...

"You...don't talk nonsense."

Gu Ruyue's eyes were in a panic and she immediately denied it.

"Sister, I know you don't like me, but you can't misunderstand mother like this." Meng Hewan's delicate voice sounded, and she looked like she was being bullied and humiliated.

"Oh, why don't I like you anymore?" Gu Fanchu raised the corners of his lips and asked with a smile.
