The prince is very cruel

Guan Ning grinned, not feeling awkward because she was the queen, but treating her like an ordinary friend: "I'll be thankful if you don't scold me to death and treat me as an enemy."

Yapin knew what he was referring to, and her beautiful face became slightly unnatural for a moment.

"Do you want me to send someone to take you there?"

"No, the palace can't stop me."

"Oh, right." Guan Ning hesitated for a moment, then finally said, "My Lady, if you have any difficulties or needs, you can always send a message to the Guan family, or have Chen Tu come to me."

"I'm not going to sit back and do nothing."

It's more like a promise, a man's promise.

Although the 23-year-old Concubine Ya has a prominent status and lives in this luxurious palace, this is the first time in the past 23 years that a man has said such words to her.

For a moment, she began to be unable to tell whether it was reality or a dream, joy or fear, and her pair of bright eyes trembled slightly.

Guan Ning made a man's promise and didn't ask for anything, so he just left.

When she reached the door, Concubine Ya finally came to her senses and said, "Wait!"

She took two steps forward, her heart beating fast for some reason.

"Huh?" Guan Ning turned around, looking handsome and youthful.

"My name is Chen Wanjin." Concubine Ya said, clenching her jade hands.

Guan Ning grinned: "Nice to hear. My name is Guan Ning, Guan as in Guanning, Ning as in Guanning."

A light and cold joke that was just right made Chen Wanjin burst out laughing, and her gloom was much less, with a sense of beauty that was more beautiful than flowers.

Immediately afterwards, Guan Ning waved his hand and completely disappeared from the Changshou Palace.

Chen Wanjin chased after him, but she could no longer see his back. She only saw a bright moon and lilies in the yard. She stood there blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.

"..."

Leaving the palace was much easier than coming in. Guan Ning left the palace easily as the guests gradually left.

The entire revenge action, including the visit to Chen Wanjin, also known as Concubine Ya, was done quietly and did not cause any waves.

The next day, the news spread!

At the Double Ninth Festival banquet, Concubine Yu stood out and was favored. The poem written by Guan Ning was also widely circulated. Some people even speculated that the poem was written by Chen Tu. After all, the horrific poem Chen Tu wrote in Shangyin Pavilion is still vivid in people's minds, and only he could do that.

Taking this opportunity, Guan Ning formally recommended Chen Tu to Xiao Changhe to join the Censorate, even if it was just a minor official.

"Brother Guan!"

"Brother Guan!"

Chen Tu rushed into Guan's house with excitement on his face.

Guan Ning walked out and asked with a smile, "What are you so happy about?"

"Brother Guan, someone from the Censorate came to me at noon today and asked me to report on my work. He also gave me a set of clothes and a token, and asked me to be a clerk in the Censorate!" Chen Tu was excited.

Guan Ning was surprised, so fast?

"What is the position of a recorder?"

Chen Tu said, "It's just doing odd jobs at the Censorate, helping the censors record and classify files. It's easy, but I'm a sixth-rank official!"

"The treatment is better than that of county magistrates in small places, and he is the Censorate!"

Guan Ning grinned: "That's not bad."

"Brother Guan, is it you? It must be you. If it weren't for you, how could the Censorate pay attention to a small person like me!" Chen Tu was extremely grateful.

Brother Guan smiled and did not deny it: "Work hard in the future, talk less and do more. If you can make more friends with adults, generally no one will bother you."

"Hahaha, yes, Brother Guan, don't worry, I will definitely not embarrass you!"

"Right, let's go!"

"I have to thank Brother Guan for everything I say today. Let's go to West Lake. If there is any woman Brother Guan likes, I will be responsible for it!" Chen Tu said enthusiastically.

If it were in the past, Guan Ning would really go, but going now always feels a bit weird, after all, there is the relationship with Concubine Ya.

"Cough cough!"

"Well, forget it."

"Why forget it? Brother Guan, are you afraid that your sister-in-law will know? Don't worry, I just asked around, she's busy."

"Or does Brother Guan dislike those courtesans in West Lake?"
