NovelEnglishChapter 455: Here You Come
“Also, Lord Huai is marrying Gu Chaoyan as the Princess Consort whilst Lord Ling is marrying Ruxue as the Equal Princess Consort who is under the real Princess Consort, so of course Lord Huai is more important when compared.” Gu Zhenkang analysed with a reasonable tone.
That was why he was sucking up to Gu Chaoyan despite her mother who was born in a business family and why he behaved so politely in front of Lord Huai.
Hearing these words, Mrs. Gu burst into an angry laughter. She thought that after spending so much effort, Gu Zhenkang would at least favor Ruxue instead.
Unexpectedly, he was only out for his own interests.
Ms. Lin’s daughter used to be a disdained daughter born to a business family, but when she became useful, he ignored that fact completely.
At the beginning, it had been Mrs. Gu’s father who helped him gain a job position where he was now, but now…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMrs. Gu looked angry. “Since you prefer Gu Chaoyan, then go and stand by her side!” Then she left directly.
When Ruxue’s real identity was revealed and everyone knew that Ruxue was the Phoenix Girl, she was going to make everyone, including Gu Zhenkang, regret it!
Gu Zhenkang had no idea what Mrs. Gu was angry about. He was the master of the Gu Mansion, and both Ruxue and Gu Chaoyan were ladies of the mansion. Even if Gu Chaoyan was born by a daughter from a business family, she was marrying Lord Huai as the Princess Consort after all, which would be very beneficial for the Gu Mansion. Wasn’t it wonderful if he could get both sides balanced? Only in this way would he be able to get the biggest benefits for the Gu Mansion.
When the Gu Mansion gained the biggest benefits, it would boost and Yunhe would do well too. She, who was the madame of the Gu Mansion and who was born in an official family, seemed to be ignorant of the whole principle!
“Yunhe!” Gu Zhenkang called Gu Yunhe next to him, hoping that he would understand the principle and console Mrs. Gu.
Gu Yunhe left directly after snorting. He simply had no idea why father would behave like that in front of Lord Ling!
Gu Chaoyan might be the Princess Consort, but so what? Ruxue was the Phoenix Girl, who was going to have an extremely bright future! Father had simply dropped the major for the minor.
Gu Yunhe shook his head, thinking that his father was indeed dumb!
Standing on the spot, Gu Zhenkang sighed seeing that no one fathomed his intention.

In the wagon.
Gu Chaoyan asked Zhou Huaijin in confusion, as she was drinking the hot tea. “Why was I asked to visit the court all of a sudden?”
It was a deep autumn day, and the air was getting cold. Especially in the past two days…
Gu Chaoyan felt that she was more sensitive to coldness than normal people. It was only autumn now, but she felt that the air was rather cold. Only the hot tea in her hands made her feel better.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZhou Huaijin noticed that too. He sensed her hand and asked, “Feeling cold?”
“A little.” Gu Chaoyan answered. “It is fine.”
Zhou Huaijin believed that it was the changing weather that made her feel cold. Also, Sword One had dressed her too lightly, so he put on a cloak for her, then he said, “I’m not sure what it is about. Don’t worry, I am always here for you.”
Gu Chaoyan nodded. She was never worried, even in the court… She believed that Zhou Huaijin would be able to handle everything for her.
As the wagon was driven into the court, no one stopped it since it belonged to Zhou Huaijin.
Soon they came to the court.
Led by the Eunuch-in-Chief, they started to head towards the imperial study.
It was not the first time for her to be at the imperial study, because when the Empress Dowager asked to see her for the first time, she came to the imperial study through the King.
“Here you are.” The King sounded very old.
