NovelEnglishChapter 502: The Civilians’ Heart
Gu Ruxue looked very embarrassed. How would she possibly know about who the monk was! She did not even have any idea of whether she had been to the temple or not.
Seeing the scene, Mrs. Gu added. “It has been so long, of course we don’t remember what the monk looked like. We thought that the monk was just trying to hoax us into paying money. Also, we didn’t dare to spill out the secret of the Phoenix Girl at all.”
Hearing what Mrs. Gu said, Lord Ling nodded with understanding. That was true.
The Gu Mansion was nothing ten years ago, so of course they did not dare to fancy the potential prosperity.
When he first came here, he was feeling quite furious, but when he heard the reason, he believed that it was a drunk, happy Gu Yunhe who had caused the trouble, and that it was not a very fatal thing to have happened.
Luckily, he had figured out the reason.
So Ruxue was born to be the Phoenix Girl… he should have met Ruxue earlier. luckily, he still managed to marry her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs he thought it through, Lord Ling sighed.
The Phoenix Girl should have been a secret, but now it exploded all of a sudden.
Hearing Lord Ling’s sigh, Gu Ruxue asked anxiously, “Lord, what should we do with the gossip out there?”
She was a little scared.
Lord Ling was baffled by this very matter as well.
Mrs. Gu served Lord Ling tea, which Lord Ling sipped and decided to ask the King for help.
He was about to get up, when Xie Yan asked cautiously, “Lord, I have a suggestion…”
Lord Ling glared at him.
“Then say it now!” Lord Ling shouted. Xie Yan was getting more and more timid as he got closer to the throne.
Xie Yan was a little embarrassed, but he still said seriously, “I believe that since the rumor goes that the Princess Consort is the Phoenix Girl, it might work better to let it spread rather than press down. When everyone knows about the Princess Consort being the Phoenix Girl, then Lord, you’ll have gained the civilians’ heart.”
Civilians’ hearts?
Zhou Huailing, who had been feeling depressed, suddenly smiled when he heard Xie Yan saying this.
Xie Yan had not been very active in dealing with errands these days, but this idea did sound great.
Civilians’ hearts? That was true! Why didn’t he think of this point?
As long as he gained the civilians’ hearts, then it was a natural matter that he was close to the throne!
Zhou Huailing patted Xie Yan’s shoulders and said, “Good idea, go and get a bonus.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXie Yan let out a sigh of relief, smiling happily.
Lord had been in a very fickle mood these days. He had been worried that what he had mentioned would annoy the Lord somehow, but it seemed that the Lord had thought the whole thing through.
“Then, thank you Yunhe, if not for you, things would not have gone so smoothly.” Zhou Huailing patted Gu Yunhe’s shoulders.
Gu Yunhe let out a dry smile. He had not yet calmed down completely, when the goal was settled…
Zhou Huailing did not linger any more at the Gu Mansion. “Ruxue, since you are here, you can spend some more time with your mother. I need to speak with the King.”
Gu Ruxue nodded obediently.
Zhou Huailing left with a look of satisfaction.
Gu Yunhe decided to leave as well.
“Where are you going?” Mrs. Gu asked confusedly.
