Chapter 173 Mood swings
Gu Changan looked at Qin Wenlan's changing expression and said, "It seems that the person who can make you so emotionally unstable must be quite capable. Tell me who is so capable?"
"Who else could it be? Gu Yunzhou just left the Penglai Restaurant." Qin Wenlan said bluntly. After all, she had no intention of hiding it from Gu Changan.
When Gu Changan heard this, his smile froze instantly, "Did that bastard embarrass you?"
"How is that possible? Gu Yunzhou just wanted me to leave you and choose him. He's so shameless! Doesn't he know that our marriage was granted by His Majesty himself? How dare he ask me to do something that disobeys the imperial decree? Haha."
Gu Changan: ...
"Lan'er is so emotionally unstable. Are you feeling extremely annoyed? Or do you really want to disobey the imperial decree and regret this marriage?"
Qin Wenlan looked at the person opposite him and smiled sincerely, "Your Highness does understand me very well, but he is only partially right. I really feel annoyed when I see him.
If you say that you want to disobey the imperial order and regret your marriage, that's nonsense. Others don't know me, but don't you, Your Highness, know me?"
"Of course. After all, we've been together for so long. As for your regrets about getting married, I was just joking. Aren't you feeling depressed?"
Gu Changan paused and continued, "Besides, you are such a rational and smart person, even if Gu Yunzhou asked you to leave me and choose him, it would be in vain.
How could he know that we had an agreement on this marriage, and that he could change it casually with just a few words.
Besides, even if you don't want to marry me, you can't choose someone like him.
He has plotted against you time and time again, and you don't want to have anything to do with him even if he is as handsome as a flower.
And the most important thing is, he already has a principal wife and a concubine, so why would you take them seriously?"
Qin Wenlan: ...
His analysis was so clear and logical that she was left speechless.
So she chuckled and said slowly, "The prince really understands me very well. Even if he gave me the throne of prince, I would still be dismissive of someone like Gu Yunzhou.
You still want me to leave you and choose him, how blind must I be?"
"If he promises you the position of principal wife, will you be tempted?" Gu Changan stared at Qin Wenlan closely.
"The prince is young, but his hearing is not very good. Didn't I just say that even if he gave up the position of prince to me, I would not care. Why would I want his position as princess?
It is said that humans should follow the path of humanity, and animals should of course follow the path of animals."
Gu Changan could no longer suppress the smile in his eyes and took over the conversation, "It seems that we really are a pair of like-minded lovers. Don't you feel much better now?"
Qin Wenlan really couldn't suppress the smile on her face. Even if she was a person who had a chance to start over, she couldn't be compared with Gu Changan's shamelessness. She really felt inferior to him!
So he changed the subject and talked about Yu Hongmin's impeachment of Bao Yu in the Qinzheng Palace. "If this matter makes Your Majesty angry with Marquis Wucheng, I'm afraid the entire Marquis Wucheng's mansion will be ruined.
If Marquis Wucheng falls again because of this, Marquis Jing'an will probably be attacked from both sides in the northern border.
I think this is the real purpose of Queen Wen and Gu Yunzhou. They are always cruel and ruthless. They either do nothing or ignore everything when they do.
Even the Great Xia Kingdom's garrison commanders were used as bargaining chips by them. If such a thing really took control of the Great Xia Kingdom, I'm afraid the Great Xia Kingdom would no longer exist."
Upon hearing this, Gu Changan's face turned extremely grim. He looked at Qin Wenlan and said, "There have been constant wars in the Northern Frontier recently. They don't take the lives of the soldiers seriously, and only care about their own little plans. They are really worse than animals."
Qin Wenlan didn't know that the war in the northern border was so serious. This kind of thing would only be discussed in the court. At this moment, she felt that she was staying at home too much.
As a result, the news was too blocked. If she had known about the war in the northern border before, when Yu Qinglan and Nangong Liuyun came to tell her about Yu Yushi, she would have thought about what Gu Yunzhou and his mother were planning.
Or maybe it was because she didn't have any good generals or counselors serving in the court, which made her so restricted and she was not well-informed.
She had always thought that expanding the scope of business and having more money in hand would directly help Gu Changan, but it seems that it is not enough now.
"The only thing we can do now is to find a way to stop Yu Yu from impeaching Marquis Wucheng." Qin Wenlan said to Gu Changan.
Gu Changan looked at Qin Wenlan, who had been frowning since he heard what happened in the court. He said, "I know you're worried that this matter will implicate Miss Yu and Nangong Liuyun."
Qin Wenlan nodded without denying it. "They gave me the information out of kindness. How could I possibly do such a mean thing? Besides, if I ended up harming Yu Yushi, how would I ever see Yu Qinglan again?"
"Imperial Censor Yu is too honest and incorruptible. This time, he was taken advantage of without knowing it. Fortunately, we found out in time. You don't have to worry about what happens next. I'll take care of everything." Gu Chang'an's eyes softened as he looked at Qin Wenlan.
Not only is she considerate, she is also so kind. She always thinks of others first in everything. When will she think of herself?
Qin Wenlan felt a little uneasy when she saw Gu Changan's eyes. She didn't do anything, so why was he looking at her like that? What did it mean?
"Do you want to add fuel to the fire regarding Shen Meng and Gu Yunzhou?"
"What?" Qin Wenlan stopped thinking and looked at Gu Changan in surprise. Was there any need to ask this? She must want to add fuel to the fire.
As long as it is something that will make that bastard Gu Yunzhou unhappy, Qin Wenlan wants to do it, and is very willing to do it. "How do you plan to do this? Or do you already have a plan?"
Even if you add fuel to the fire, there are some rules to follow, it's not just talk.
"Hasn't your fake sister caused trouble already? Let's just let Gu Yunzhou marry her directly by making a fake one into a real one."
"Is it really possible? Queen Wen is not an ordinary person. She will not let her son marry a woman who is of no use to her, even if she is just a concubine." Qin Wenlan said to Gu Changan.
In fact, she was really reluctant to see Shen Tang come back and wholeheartedly give advice to that bastard Gu Yunzhou.
If Shen Meng hadn't followed Gu Yunzhou, even if Shen Tang came back, she could still sow discord between them. In this way, what would she be able to sow discord between them...
