The Princess Agents Want a Divorce

Chapter 13 Deep love between brother and sister

Outside Luoxue Pavilion, Aunt Mei and Gu Yuting, who had been teased by Gu Lingxi, ran out of the pavilion with their hair disheveled, shouting that there was a ghost all the way.

The servants of the Gu family, seeing the two bewildered individuals, couldn't understand what had happened and began whispering among themselves: "Huh? You know, this mother and daughter are usually so domineering, what's going on today? They look so disheveled!"

"Hey, didn't you see? They just ran out of Luoxue Pavilion. Could it be that the Second Miss really ruined her appearance and scared that mother and daughter?" "Don't talk nonsense. I think they've done too many bad things and have something to hide!"

"Why aren't you working? What are you talking about here?" A cold voice came from afar! Gu Yunyang frowned and slowly walked towards the crowd. He had just come out of the training ground and hadn't had time to wipe the thin layer of sweat off his face. He heard people talking about concubines and young ladies in the distance, and he couldn't help but feel worried when he thought of his seriously injured sister!

Everyone was startled, and upon seeing that it was the eldest young master, they hurriedly bowed and greeted him. "This humble servant greets the eldest young master!"

Gu Yunyang waved his sleeve and pointed to the young servant in blue who was slightly ahead, saying, "No need for such trouble, Laifu, tell me what's going on?"

"Replying to your question, young master, just now, for some reason, Second Madam and Third Miss came out of Luoxue Pavilion with disheveled hair, and kept shouting that there were ghosts! That's all, young master!"

Gu Yunyang snorted heavily after hearing this! Had he run out of his sister's Snowfall Pavilion to bully her again? Eager to see what was going on, he impatiently waved his hand and said, "Alright, everyone get back to work! Anyone who dares to discuss the masters' affairs again will not be spared! Understand? Disperse!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, the young master didn't punish them, otherwise they would have been in serious trouble and would have received a beating! As they breathed a sigh of relief, they all nodded respectfully and said, "Yes, yes, we will obey the young master's orders!"

They dispersed, but inwardly they were all grumbling: the eldest young master and the second young lady were truly siblings! It seemed like the second concubine was the one being bullied, so why did they ignore the main point we were making? The second young lady's face was full of worry and anxiety; anyone with eyes could see that!

Worried about his sister, Gu Yunyang hurried towards Luoxue Pavilion. He was so anxious that he unconsciously used his lightness skill without realizing it!

As soon as they arrived at the gate of Luoxue Pavilion, they could faintly hear the laughter of the master and servant inside, and their worries immediately disappeared!

He realized he had been too nervous. Nothing serious could happen in their own home! It had only been two days, and his sister's injury seemed to be much better! Hearing the loud laughter, Gu Yunyang understood immediately! He pushed open the door and went inside.

Seeing her brother walk in, Gu Lingxi stopped laughing and sweetly called out, "Brother, why are you here? Did you miss Xi'er?"

"Yes, of course I missed Xi'er. I came to see how her injury was. You look radiant and healthy, is something good happening to you?"

With a pout, Gu Lingxi pretended to be angry and said, "I think brother didn't come to see Xi'er, but rather to have some fun! Xi'er is clearly wearing a veil, but brother still said that Xi'er is glowing. Does brother have X-ray vision?"

Looking at his younger sister, who had become both clever and mischievous, Gu Yunyang said helplessly, "Alright! Nothing can be hidden from you, sister. I overheard the servants talking about Second Aunt and the others outside. I was worried they would come here to cause trouble again, so I rushed over to see if you were alright."

Gu Lingxi felt a warmth in her heart; it felt so good to be cared for. "It's alright, brother. Look, I'm perfectly fine. It's just that some people are feeling guilty for doing something wrong. By the way, brother, could you help me identify what kind of poison this is?"

He put the poison he had just forced out into a white porcelain jade bottle and handed it to Gu Yunyang.

Gu Yunyang didn't hesitate. He reached out and took the jade bottle, opened it and smelled it. Then he took out a silver needle, inserted it into the bottle and tested it. He frowned and said, "This poison should be one of the ten most rare poisons of the 'Dream Entering' Demon Feather Palace!"

It is said that those poisoned by this substance experience no physical discomfort, only drowsiness. Five days later, the poison takes effect without any visible signs; they simply appear to be asleep, never to wake up again, until their bodily functions are exhausted and they die.

After hearing this, Gu Lingxi sneered inwardly, "Truly, the most vicious heart is that of a woman. If you dare to harm me, you should be prepared to bear the consequences."

"Xi'er, how did you get this poison?"

"This was prepared for me by someone else, but unfortunately they didn't succeed!"

"What? How could this happen? Who wants to harm my sister?" Gu Yunyang was filled with shock and anger. The cup in his hand shattered instantly, and hot water spilled out, soaking his robes.

Seeing this, Gu Lingxi quickly got up and used a handkerchief to wipe Gu Yunyang clean! Hua Ying also hurriedly ran over to clean up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground!

Brother, is your hand alright? Seriously, how could you be so careless? Your sister only invited you for tea and now you have to throw in a cup too. You'll have to make it up to me later!

Seeing his younger sister so calm, not only not worried about his affairs but even in the mood to joke with him, Gu Yunyang couldn't help but smile! It's alright, my thick skin and this little bit of heat can't hurt you, brother! "Brother, don't be angry. I will make a decision on this matter. Anyone who dares to harm me will be made to wish they were dead! They will regret messing with me."

Is this really his sister? Looking at the determination in her eyes and the confidence in her voice, if he hadn't personally rescued her from the bottom of the cliff, he would have thought someone was impersonating her!

His younger sister had truly changed. Before, she would have nestled in his arms, begging for help, crying out her grievances, and even pleading for others. This confident and outspoken sister was so different from before. Gu Yunyang felt a mix of disappointment and pride at his sister's independence; she had grown up!

"Alright, I'll do as you say! But if you encounter any danger or difficulties, you must tell your older brother. I don't want anything to happen to you. In a few days, when your injuries are better, I'll take you out for a walk, and it will cheer you up."

"Yes, big brother! Whenever I'm in trouble, the first person I think of is definitely you, and of course, the first person I think of when I have good news is also you. Aren't you touched!"

"You little devil, you're getting more and more mischievous." He reached out and affectionately pinched Ling Xi's nose.

Of course, Ling Xi also enjoyed this feeling. She felt sweet inside, but she still complained, "Brother is bad. If you flatten your nose, you'll become ugly and won't be able to get married. You'll just have to be lazy with your brother for the rest of your life!"

"You're really shameless, thinking about getting married at such a young age. Don't worry, you already have your Mr. Right. You can get married when you come of age. Don't bother your brother, someone will take care of you!"

"What ideal husband? I don't know anything about him." Gu Lingxi looked at Gu Yunyang with a puzzled expression. "It seems you really have amnesia," Gu Yunyang explained helplessly. "It happened two years ago. The Emperor bestowed a marriage upon you, betrothing you to his seventh son, Jun Moli, the current Prince Li."

Oh! I see. "So, is Prince Li handsome? Is he as dashing as my brother? If he's ugly, I'd rather stay with my brother!"

Gu Yunyang chuckled and affectionately ruffled Ling Xi's hair. "When did you become so glib? I've already said a prince can't be ugly! Alright, now that you're alright, I'm relieved. I have to go now, I'll play with you another day."

Let's go, let's go, you're so long-winded!

Gu Yunyang shook his head with a helpless yet indulgent expression and walked out!

"The young master and young lady are so good to you," Hua Ying murmured as she watched Gu Yunyang walk away.

"Nonsense, he's my brother, of course he'd treat me well." Gu Lingxi said matter-of-factly. "Oh, by the way, Hua Ying, come here and tell me about the layout of the Gu residence."

Hua Ying was stunned. "Miss, what do you mean by the layout of the Gu residence? Isn't this your home?"

Gu Lingxi rolled her eyes at her. "Miss, didn't I lose my memory? How could I remember what my house looks like?"

Oh! So Miss doesn't even remember this. The main gate is to the south. Passing through the main gate's flower hall leads to the reception hall, and behind the reception hall is a small garden. Passing through the garden leads to the backyard. To the north is the Fuzhu Garden, which is the master and mistress's courtyard. The young lady and young master's courtyards are to the east, and the west is the courtyard of the concubines. The kitchen is on the road from the east courtyard to the west courtyard.

After listening to Gu Lingxi, she already had a clear understanding of the Gu family. It seemed that she could go and explore the situation tonight. Thinking of Aunt Mei and her daughter, a strange smile appeared on Gu Lingxi's lips.
