Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Mrs. Gu opened her mouth. She was about to say something when she stopped herself.

He had had a terrible experience at Jiayu Pass in the past few years, and the maid he liked did not want to be with him. Sigh, she was going to make that girl his in the future.

He was the Young Master of the Gu Family, and he had the right to fool around.

Instead of saying anything, Mrs. Gu adjusted Gu Yunhe’s shirt and said, “Alright, just go.”

Gu Yunhe nodded, then he left for his own business.

***

At the Liu Mansion.

Zhou Huailing would have returned to his own mansion after coming out of the court, but on the way home, he was reminded of what the King said – apart from destiny, what he needed was real forces. Only with real forces in his hands would he be able to defend himself.

General Liu had a large portion of military power. He had to get the power for himself, otherwise there would be barriers for him rather than benefits. He was going to turn the potential barriers into benefits.

That woman used to be married to him, and what he needed was to spend some energy to get her back.

Zhou Huailing thought for a while and he believed that the King was right.

While Ruxue was staying at the Gu Mansion, he was going to get his old Princess Consort back.

He had now obtained the civilians’ hearts, and General Liu was sure to be polite with him.

As he went through the plan, he went to the Liu Mansion with Xie Yan.

“I need to see Qingqing.” Zhou Huailing said with an upright expression on his face.

The guards were startled for one moment, then they remembered that Qingqing was their Elder Miss’ maiden name. She was always addressed as the Princess Consort after she got married, and few mentioned her real name. Even the General did not call her that, so the name did not ring a bell for a moment.

Since the General did not stress that they should stop Lord Ling from entering the mansion, the guards went on to pass the message.

The General was not in the mansion, but the Madame asked Lord Ling to come in.

The guards passed on the message word by word.

Hearing that he was allowed to enter, Zhou Huailing showed a proud smile. The woman could have been stubborn for a couple of days, but a few days later, she was still waiting for him to take her back home.

Zhou Huailing smiled ironically.

If not for General Liu’s military power, he would not have stepped into the mansion. He would have expected the Liu Family to beg him instead!

Now he had married the Phoenix Girl, those who were supposed to take his side were now doing so. The same went for the Liu Mansion.

He walked in with a look of pride.

He knew where Liu Qingqing’s room was, so he snapped at the servants and made them leave, whilst bringing Xie Yan directly to Liu Qingqing’s room.

He was calling her Liu Qingqing, since someone else had taken the position of Princess Consort. So she was either Liu Qingqing, or Princess Concubine Liu.

Before she agreed to become Princess Concubine, she was none other than Liu Qingqing.

Liu Qingqing’s court was neat and clean, unlike what a girl’s home should be like. Instead, it was more like a man’s home. There were some weapons placed in the yard for daily practice.

Zhou Huailing frowned. He hated this point.

A girl had to behave like a girl, not someone who was always out for a fight.

She did not dare to practice when she was at the Mansion, but now, she was doing this back at her own home.

He was going to lecture her about it later!

“Qingqing!” Zhou Huailing called out.

Shao was about to stop him, when Zhou Huailing pushed her away. “Liu Qingqing!”

Shao glared at him with displeasure.

When Zhou Huailing walked in, he felt that something was wrong. There was a familiar smell in the room, which was not Liu Qingqing’s..
