The Prince Regent Is Powerful, And My Mommy Is Expecting Again!

166 Didn’t you Say That Lady Gu Liked the Prince?

Gu Qingxue narrowed her eyes and continued to walk toward the Bitang Residence.

As soon as she entered the Bitang Residence, Gu Qingxue heard Rong Han’s puzzled voice from the courtyard, “Great-grandfather, why didn’t you see me but only father?”

Liu Yi and Ji Yan were standing in front of Rong Han and were about to explain to him when Ji Yan saw Gu Qingxue walk through the arched door and enter the courtyard. She was staring at them.

Ji Yan looked as if he was facing a great enemy. He quickly patted Liu Yi’s arm.

Liu Yi followed Ji Yan’s gaze and immediately retracted what he wanted to say. He smiled at Gu Qingxue. “Lady Gu is here. The young prince is waiting for you.”

“Fairy!” Rong Han quickly ran to Gu Qingxue with her short legs. He threw himself into Gu Qingxue’s arms and acted coquettishly. “Fairy, does my great-grandfather not like me anymore? Why does he only see my father and not me?”

“Everyone knows that the old prince dotes on you. He doesn’t want to see you this time because he has something important to discuss with your father. Han’er, go practice your calligraphy in the room first. I’ll look for you in the room later.” Gu Qingxue smiled and patted Rong Han’s little head.

Rong Han was very obedient and ran to the room obediently.

“Lady Gu, please wait for a moment. We’ll go and pour tea for you now.” As Liu Yi spoke, he pulled Ji Yan and wanted to escape.

Gu Qingxue took out the jade dragon pendant from her sleeve calmly. “Seeing the jade pendant is like seeing the prince. Tell me, what happened to the prince regent’s manor?”

She did not like to meddle in other people’s business, but now that the incident in the prince regent’s manor was obviously related to her, she could not sit idly by.

Liuyi and Ji Yan looked at the jade dragon pendant worriedly.

If they had known that Lady Gu would use this jade pendant to deal with them, they would not have told Lady Gu about the use of this jade dragon pendant in the first place.

“Miss Qu fell into the water yesterday. When she went back, she cried and complained to the old prince. The old prince wanted to ask Lady Gu about it, but in the end, the prince went on behalf of Lady Gu.” Ji Yan was helpless, he could only obediently answer Gu Qingxue’s question.

Gu Qingxue suddenly understood.

No wonder people had been talking about her since she entered the room. It was because of Rong Zhan.

“Lady Gu, don’t worry. The old prince will not make things difficult for the prince. Lady Gu doesn’t need to go and help,” Liu Yi advised.

Gu Qingxue looked up at the two of them and asked in return, “Who said I’m going to help? You two go and keep an eye on her. Let me know when the prince comes back. I have something to tell the prince.”

It was no secret that the old prince loved his grandson and great-grandson. How could a mere Qu Lianyu be a match for Rong Zhan?

She came to the prince regent’s manor only to treat Rong Han’s illness. As for the other matters, Rong Zhan should help her solve them.

Seeing Gu Qingxue enter the room after she finished speaking, Ji Yan glanced at Liu Yi in confusion, “Didn’t you say that Lady Gu likes the prince? Why doesn’t Lady Gu care about the prince at all?”

Liu Yi had an unfathomable expression. “You don’t understand, do you? When a woman says she doesn’t want it, she actually wants it. Otherwise, why would Lady Gu ask the prince to look for her after he returns? In the end, she’s still concerned about the prince’s safety.”

Ji Yan nodded his head as if he didn’t understand.

At the same time, in Shouan Courtyard…

The charcoal fire in the room was burning vigorously. An old man dressed in a brocade robe was sitting upright on the main seat, his aura imposing without anger.

The old man seemed to be somewhat helpless, he glanced at Qu Lianyu, who was crying at the side. “Yu’er, look at you. You’ve been crying since just now. If you spoil your eyes, you won’t be pretty anymore. Listen to Grandpa Rong’s advice and stop crying.”
