Su Yan also realized the ambiguity in her words and explained awkwardly, âI didnât mean it that way. Your body has just been detoxified. Quickly put me down.â
Gu Ruoyun saw that Su Yan was struggling a lot, so he put her down. He stated his conditions, âIâll put you down. You move in from tonight onwards.â
Su Yanâs first reaction was no.
Gu Ruoyunâs face fell and his body fell back weakly.
Su Yan supported him in a panic. Gu Ruoyun placed all his weight on Su Yanâs body and Su Yan was pressed down by him.
Gu Ruoyun said pitifully, âMy poor body is so weak but no one wants to take care of me. Even my Princess Consort dislikes me.â
Su Yan quickly explained, âI donât dislike you.â
Gu Ruoyun continued, âThen why arenât you willing to move in? You just dislike me.â
His tone was full of accusations, which made Su Yanâs heart soften.
âAlright, alright, Iâll move in.â
Gu Ruoyun opened one of his eyes and looked at Su Yan. He smiled.
He straightened his body and pulled Su Yan towards the bed.
Su Yanâs face was filled with confusion.
It was not until the man had pulled her onto the bed, pulled her into his arms and covered her with the blanket that Su Yan vaguely realized something.
âGu Ruoyun, were you lying to me just now?â
Gu Ruoyun almost laughed out loud when he heard Su Yanâs soft tone even when she was questioning him.
Why is this girl so cute.
He had a sly look on his face, but his tone sounded as if he was wronged, âItâs all because you gave me strength, my lady. Donât think too much. Sleep early, good girl.â
Su Yan felt that something was wrong, but she could not tell what was wrong. She was brought to sleep by Gu Ruoyun in a daze.
Gu Ruoyun kissed Su Yan on the forehead, closed his eyes and fell asleep as well.
â¦
Ever since Gu Lingyu received Su Yanâs reply, he had been very excited.
Recently, there had been more and more people supporting him in the Imperial Court. He was only one step away. Now that Gu Ruoyun was dead, I want to see what else Guang Pingwangâs group of loyal and stubborn old fogies have to say.
Gu Lingyu held a private meeting that very night.
âLingyu, youâre leaving as soon as youâve returned.â Su Qiao helped Gu Lingyu tidy up his collar and complained.
Gu Lingyu did not sleep for the whole night but he did not feel tired. As long as he thought about what he had to do today, he felt radiant.
He gently scratched Su Qiaoâs nose, âI have something important to do. Iâll accompany you properly when Iâm done.â
Su Qiao could tell that Gu Lingyu was in a good mood, so she quickly said, âIâm just worried about your health.â
Gu Lingyu was delighted by Su Qiaoâs gentleness, and the smile on his face grew wider.
Su Qiao seized the opportunity to say, âLingyu, after some time, Iâm going to attend a flower tea party, but those young misses look down on me. Iâm worried that Iâll lose face for the Gu Family, so I want to buy a set of jewelry.â
Gu Lingyu, who was bursting with pride, waved his hand and agreed.
Su Qiaoâs smile became more and more gentle.
After sending Gu Lingyu off, Su Qiao thought of the set of jewelry that she had taken a fancy to recently, and her mood became better.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ever since Su Yan took back all the jewelry, she had never had any decent jewelry. After marrying Gu Lingyu, her predicament did not improve.
Gu Lingyu stood in the Imperial Court in high spirits.
Gu Lingyu, who could only stand at the edge of the court in the past, was standing in the middle of the entire Imperial Court this time.
The Emperor sat on the throne in a majestic and righteous manner. His eyes, which were engraved with the marks of time, were filled with amusement.
No matter how much the people below him caused a commotion, he would always be the one to profit in the end.
Recently, without Gu Ruoyun, this big mountain, pressing down on him, the Emperor, who was almost 50 years old, had experienced the unprecedented vigor of youth.
Gu Lingyu stood in front of all the officials and cupped his hands towards the Emperor.
âLong live the Emperor.â
The Emperor spoke, âRise, Dear Subject Gu, what do you have to report?â
