Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me

Naturally, Gu Luoheng was able to find out about the movements in the palace. Not only did he find out, he even sent someone to pass a message to the Mu family, which could be considered as sharing the good news with her.

After all, the Fifth Princess always liked to make things difficult for Ali, especially after Ali returned to Beijing, this kind of embarrassment and isolation of her became more obvious. He secretly dealt with her several times, but she still refused to repent.

Fortunately, the marriage has been decided. He has asked people to investigate Shentu Chi. It is said that he had someone he liked before, but there was no news about him later.

How could it be a good thing for someone who has someone else in his heart to be willing to pay a price to marry Lu Yao? There must be a purpose! Marrying her to a place so far away from Dongyi Kingdom can be considered as a way for Ah Li to vent her anger.

When Qiao Yan came in, he was personally sorting out the gifts he would give to his future wife in his private vault. He did not let anyone else touch each one of them and did everything himself, which showed his dedication.

He was hesitating whether to go over and disturb them when he saw the man in the room talking to him without even turning his head.

"Just tell me if you have anything to say."

Only then did Qiao Yan realize that the other party had noticed his arrival, and he immediately relaxed his expression and started talking with a smile.

"Master, we've received word that General Mu is on his way back to Beijing. Besides his personal escort, he's accompanied by two young women, seemingly a master-servant pair. The person we sent to investigate overheard the maid saying she wanted to become the general's adopted daughter and live a life of luxury."

When he said this, his expression was a little strange. He didn't know where General Mu had picked up those filthy bastards. Did they really think that Jinghua was a place where they could get along? They had gone to such great lengths to squeeze into Jinghua, but they might not even know how they died when they returned.

On the other hand, I heard that General Mu was quite tolerant of them. He had already asked someone to investigate what the maid was talking about - the adopted daughter. Logically, this was the Mu family's private matter, but since it involved the future mistress, he had no choice but to come and ask the master.

Gu Luoheng didn't expect to hear such news. He subconsciously looked back while holding the thing in his hand, frowning slightly.

"Do you mean that General Mu is going to adopt a daughter? Or a girl we don't know?"

He felt that Uncle Mu definitely had not informed Aunt Cheng about this matter, otherwise, given Aunt Cheng's temper and the excessive importance she placed on her daughter, she would definitely not agree. He just didn't know what method she had used to get Uncle Mu to agree to such a thing.

After thinking about it, he was still a little worried, so he gave an instruction in a calm voice.

"Find a few people to find out about the master and servant and their whereabouts. It would be best if we could find out if there's anyone behind them. But don't reveal our identities. I'll ask Ahri later."

Qiao Yan thought this was a good idea and didn't say anything more. Instead, he grinned and changed the subject.

"His Highness has already agreed to your terms. The person who came also specifically explained that Miss Mu had made the same offer as you, and asked if you would like to change it."

Gu Luoheng raised his eyes and shook his head in surprise, and a bright smile soon bloomed at the corner of his lips, with a gentle light surging in his eyes.

The two of them have been together less and less over the years, but they didn't expect that at this moment they would have such similar thoughts. They both wanted to protect their own families and each other's families first. When his grandfather told Ali the news about the Seventh Prince, he guessed that they would eventually end up in the same camp.

Uncle Mu should be back soon. I wonder how much he knows about these things. Maybe he knows nothing at all.

As soon as Qiao Yan heard it, he understood what he meant. He didn't want to change the conditions. Although he felt a little regretful, he didn't say much in the end. After all, his master was the one who had the final say on this matter.

He immediately smiled and bowed in agreement with a gentle voice.

"Yes, I will obey my master. The imperial decree for the marriage has been issued. I guess the palace will start getting busy in the next few days. Do we need to help on the way back?"

"No, this matter might be related to Ahri. We don't know what her plans are yet, so we shouldn't get involved. If possible, let them leave first. Wouldn't it be better to wait until they reach the border of Dongyi Nation before taking action?"

Gu Luoheng lowered his head and began to busily organize things, waving his hand casually without any concern.

Qiao Yan nodded in understanding, then bowed to him and turned away quietly. The master would not delegate matters concerning the future mistress to anyone else. Now that everything had been reported, he would only be a nuisance to the master if he stayed here, so he should find something to do on his own.

Who knew that he had just walked out not far when he ran into the old man walking slowly with a cane, along with the guards who usually followed him.

"Qiao Yan has met the old man. Is he in good health now?"

Qiao Yan quickly bowed and did not forget to show concern for the old man. After all, he was the master's confidant. To some extent, his attitude also represented the master's attitude.

Old Grand Tutor Gu rarely left the house or attended court these days because he was secretly taking medicine in his own house to eliminate the toxins in his body. However, the news to the outside world was naturally that he had a cold, and his courtyard would also make cold medicine from time to time to deceive the spies in the house.

However, compared to the fatigue that always lingered between his brows before, he was now very energetic, with a kind smile on his lips.

"It's Xiaoyan~ Did you just come out from Ah Heng's place? Did he ask you to do something again?"

In such a huge Tai Shi Mansion, I guess only the old man would call him like that. Sometimes I always feel that these two words are no different from calling a child.

Qiao Yan felt a little helpless but couldn't say it directly in front of the old man, so he just smiled and nodded frankly.

"Yes, the master sent a servant to do something. Is the old man going to see the master? He is in the storeroom choosing a gift for the future mistress. You should still be able to see him if you go there now."

"Okay, okay, I won't disturb you any more. I'll go over and take a look myself. You can go and do your work."

Since the toxins in Old Master Gu's body were slowly cleared, his overall condition has been getting better and better, and his mood has also improved a lot. He looked at him happily and left.

Who among the elders doesn't like their children to live in harmony and peace? Now that Ali hasn't married yet, the relationship between the two is already so good. Naturally, he is also very happy to see the deep love between the two children in the future.

At this time, Mu Qingli didn't know that someone had already investigated Liao Zhirou. After all, she didn't intend to involve this person in the Gu family. The reason why she didn't let Father Fu tell her father was just because she wanted to see this so-called old friend again.

Some grudges should always be resolved face to face, and she has been dragging on some things for too long.
