Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Gu Qianning looked at Shen Wantang in surprise: "Ah Tang, I didn't know you were so careless. It's already this time, and you're not angry or indignant, but you're still thinking about the Ruyi Lily Roll. If it were me, I would be so angry that I wouldn't be able to eat anything."

"Eat when you should, drink when you should. Don't punish yourself for the mistakes of others. Otherwise, I will lose both the wife and the army."

"Well, that makes sense. Let's go and eat. To be honest, I've been thinking about getting the Ruyi Lily Roll for a long time. I don't know why, but the ones made at home are never as delicious as those in the temple. It's really strange."

"Perhaps, the food here is tainted with Buddha's nature, and eating it can cleanse the soul."

"Really? Then I have to eat more and wash more!"

Gu Qianning's mood was affected by Shen Wantang, and she went from being extremely angry to being relaxed and happy.

While the others were still praising Liu Nanshi, the two of them had already returned to the meditation room and started enjoying the food.

When Gu Qianhan saw the two of them leave, he also left with his servant.

When Yuan Zheng saw Gu Qianhan leaving, he immediately pulled Xiao Qingyuan to follow.

After they entered the Zen room reserved for men, Yuan Zheng asked the question in his heart: "Gu Qianhan, tell us the truth, was it you who solved the Xin family case, or was it Liu Nanshi who solved it?"

Gu Qianhan paused as he entered the meditation room. He turned to look at Yuan Zheng and said, "Why, you don't believe what Liu Nanshi, the most talented woman in Dafeng, said?"

Yuan Zheng sneered: "How did she get the title of Dafeng's most talented woman? You and I both know it very well. Elder Liu is best at creating momentum. This is just a matter of moving his fingers!"

"But it's not because I don't believe Liu Nanshi, it's because I don't believe that you, Gu Qianhan, need others to find clues for you to solve the case!"

"Liu Nanshi's reputation as a talented woman is false, but you—your reputation as a genius is real."

Gu Qianhan nodded: "It's rare that you can grow up with Xiao Qingyuan every day. Yes, I solved the case. It has nothing to do with Liu Nanshi. She is lying."

Xiao Qingyuan was so angry that veins popped up on his forehead: "Gu Qianhan! Can you die if you don't insult me?!"

Yuan Zheng laughed, "Hahaha, I knew it! Liu Nanshi didn't solve the case! Qingyuan, you see, Liu Nanshi is a liar, she is shameless and despicable! She actually dared to steal the credit in front of Gu Qianhan, and she is not afraid of losing face!"

Xiao Qingyuan's face turned pale as he said, "Yuan Zheng, do you believe whatever Gu Qianhan says? He said he solved the case, does that mean he really solved it?"

Yuan Zheng's laughter stopped abruptly: "Ah? What else? Gu Qianhan doesn't have to lie about this kind of thing, right?"

In other words, as proud and talented as he is, he simply disdains to compete with a woman for credit.

Although Yuan Zheng didn't like Gu Qianhan, he was sure that Gu Qianhan would not lie about such things, nor would he slander Liu Nanshi in order to steal the credit - his inherent pride and self-esteem would not allow him to do so.

"Yuan Zheng, wake up and don't be fooled by Gu Qianhan! How could Liu Nanshi lie? How could she steal the credit? This doesn't make any sense to her!"

"Qingyuan, you are the one who should be sober! You were deceived by Liu Nanshi!"

"Humph, if the case was really solved by Gu Qianhan, why didn't he expose Liu Nanshi just now? Now he is saying that Liu Nanshi lied behind her back. I think he has something to hide! He doesn't dare to say it in public, but only dares to slander her behind her back. What a mean person!"

"Ah? Qingyuan, you..."

"Yuan Zheng, you are too naive. You can't believe what Gu Qianhan says!"

Yuan Zheng was stunned. What was he talking about? !

Xiao Qingyuan actually said that he was simple?

He has lived long enough to hear everything. Others say he is a playboy and a dandy, that he is uneducated and unrestrained, but Xiao Qingyuan is the only one he says is simple!

How touching!

It’s actually quite good to be friends with fools.

Yuan Zheng immediately changed his words: "Yes, Qingyuan, you are right, I was too naive, so I easily believed Gu Qianhan's lies! I have such a fatal flaw, I trust my friends too easily!"

Xiao Qingyuan felt much more comfortable when he saw that he had finally stood on the same front with him. He cleared his throat and said righteously, "It's okay. Trusting friends is not a shortcoming, but an advantage. After all, none of us would be like Gu Qianhan, who is scheming and full of lies!"

"Yes, yes, what the prince said is right! Gu Qianhan is too cunning, and he is not the same as honest people like us!"

Yuan Zheng wished that Xiao Qingyuan would stay away from Gu Qianhan, so that he would be Xiao Qingyuan's only friend!

He stood beside Xiao Qingyuan and looked at Gu Qianhan provocatively, but saw Gu Qianhan looking at them as if they were two idiots: "You are not smart, you should stay out less."

"Gu Qianhan! You——"

"Even if you can't help but go out, you should talk less. Otherwise, you will expose your stupidity and bring shame to your ancestors."

After Gu Qianhan finished speaking, he opened the door of the Zen room and walked in.

Xiao Qingyuan and Yuan Zheng hadn't cursed back yet, so how could they let him go so easily? Just as they were about to break in, they were stopped by Jixiang.

"My Lords, our Master needs to rest now, so we are sorry that we cannot receive you."

Yuan Zheng glared angrily: "Who the hell are you? Get out of here!"

Xiao Qingyuan raised his voice in anger: "A servant dares to stop me?!"

Jixiang's words and deeds were quite similar to Gu Qianhan's. He said calmly and unhurriedly, "If you two don't want to listen to my advice, I know a little bit about fighting, so how about giving it a try?"

Xiao Qingyuan and Yuan Zheng looked at each other and took a step back at the same time.

Are you kidding? They have been friends with Gu Qianhan for so many years, how could they not know how powerful his servant’s martial arts skills are!

Normally, Gu Qianhan would not do anything himself if he could, no matter big or small. It was almost always his servants who solved all the problems for him. This Jixiang looked inconspicuous, but he had amazing explosive power, and it was common for him to beat ten people alone!

"Are you worthy enough to let this prince take action? Mo Ji, what are you standing there for? Come on!"

"I am a man of status after all. How can I fight with a servant like you? It's cheap! Jinwu, come here! Beat him till he is utterly defeated!"

Mo Ji and Jin Wu had no choice but to step forward and fight with Jixiang.

A moment later, Mo Ji and Jin Wu fell to the ground screaming and wailing.

Xiao Qingyuan's face turned pale: "You useless piece of shit. You can't even beat Gu Qianhan's servant. What do I need you for?!"

Yuan Zheng was furious: "Jinwu, you are embarrassing me! I will punish you by not allowing you to eat for three days!"

After the two men scolded the servant, they left quickly.

It doesn't matter if the servant is embarrassed, but if the two of them stay, it will be a big embarrassment for me!

After the two of them walked away, Mo Ji and Jin Wu climbed up.

The two men stopped wailing and smiled as they bowed to Jixiang: "Thank you, brother Jixiang, for showing mercy. We will remember your kindness. When you are free some other day, we will invite you to Zuixianlou for a drink!"

Jixiang smiled and said, "Okay, okay, we are all brothers, how can I really do it? Just pretend. Okay, you guys go after those two ancestors. If you are slow, you might get punished again."
