Early the next morning.

A carriage stopped in front of the Duke's Mansion.

Sheng Wan pulled the sleepy Gu Huaizhi over.

"Were you responsible for what happened to the Fan family?"

Apparently she had heard some rumors early in the morning.

Before Gu Huaizhi nodded in recognition, she nodded with satisfaction.

"That old guy has been very strong all his life, but now he has suffered a stroke and can only lie on the couch. He can't even speak. For her, life is worse than death."

"She has done a lot of bad things over the years, so this is fine."

Mrs. Fan fell down and gave Fan Kun another heavy blow.

If he fails to recover again, the prince's mansion will completely collapse.

Sheng Wan: "You did a good job in this matter."

"Today Zhenzhen will be left to you. If I know that she has been wronged by you, you will see how I will deal with you."

Gu Huai was wronged.

I didn't get a good rest last night, and now I have a severe headache.

He responded perfunctorily.

Sheng Wan: "Did you hear that?"

Gu Huaizhi couldn't help but sneer: "Why should I bully her?"

Is he that kind of person?

You really are! Sheng Wan was too embarrassed to talk about what happened at yesterday’s dinner table.

Sheng Wan just paused and said very reservedly: "I mean, when you go to the hot springs, don't bully others."

Gu Huaizhi was confused.

Ruan Zhen covets him so much, it's not certain who will bully whom.

Sheng Wan: "I'm talking to you!"

"Um."

While the two were talking, Ruan Zhen hurried over in embroidered shoes. She walked in a hurry, holding up her skirt, and ran very steadily.

"Godmother, Crown Prince." She ran all the way, and now she was breathing rapidly, which was a blessing to her body.

"I'm late." She was a little embarrassed.

Sheng Wan was about to say it was okay.

I heard Gu Huaizhi say very unhappy: "You are arrogant because of favor? You won't allow it next time."

Sheng Wan:...It’s hopeless.

She didn't want to talk anymore and could only rub her forehead with a headache.

"Okay, let's set off."

"yes."

While Gu Huai was riding, Tan Yun was reluctant to hold Ruan Zhen. It was not surprising that she was like this, since she had served Ruan Zhen, there had never been any separation.

She was a little depressed. She helped Ruan Zhen get on the carriage and opened the curtain: "Girl, don't forget my candied haws and pancakes."

"good."

Ruan Zhen enters.

When Chang Su heard this, he couldn't help but mock.

He looked up and down at the jealous Tan Yun and said something harshly.

"You're so fat, but you still know how to eat?"

Tan Yun:???

She couldn't help but stepped on Chang Su: "What did you say!"

Chang Su has never been stepped on by anyone.

He has never been so wronged.

If Tan Yun wasn't the girl's lover, he would have slapped her to pieces.

He looked down at Tan Yun.

"What about you, short winter melon? If you keep eating like this, I don't think I can get married."

Tan Yun was furious. She wanted to serve Ruan Zhen all her life and didn't want to marry. Telling others that she couldn't marry meant nothing!

Then he cursed him: "I don't think you can get a wife! Where can you go?"

After a long pause, he pursed his lips and stopped talking. He jumped into the carriage a little depressed and acted as coachmen with An Qi.

He couldn't refute, because the master said the same thing last time, and what the master said was absolutely correct!

He tightened the reins: "Drive!"

The horse raised its forelimbs and roared loudly. The carriage ran over the ground and finally set off.

Seeing the carriage go away and raising a lot of dust, Tan Yun was a little unable to react.

She looked confused.

Is this a sore spot for Chang Su?

Sheng Wan didn't hear what the two talked about, but it was rare for Chang Su to feel embarrassed. She immediately called Tan Yun forward.

"come here."

Tan Yun suppressed the confusion in his eyes and faced forward.

"Greetings, madam."

Sheng Wan looked amused: "What did you say? It makes him angry."

Tan Yun was pragmatic: "I just told you that he can't get a wife."

Sheng said "Oh".

"That's true. He is a grown man, how can he not accept the truth?"

As she spoke, she smiled and added: "I usually look tall and straight, but it seems that he is also afraid."

As she said that, her eyes circled in front of Tan Yun, and she felt a little bit confident in her heart.

"Have you married anyone yet?"

Tan Yun's panic faded away when he saw her looking so kind and cheerful.

"This slave wants to serve the girl for the rest of her life."

"Then what do you think of Chang Su?"

Tan Yun:???

————

The carriage engraved with the wooden sign of the Duke's Mansion successfully left Lin'an.

The carriage was large and well-equipped. There was a man, a woman, and a dog in the carriage.

Xiao Hui lay down in front of Gu Huaizhi's feet, swaying his tail, holding the dried fish in his front hooves, and biting it loudly.

Ruan Zhen leaned against the carriage and kept a certain distance from Gu Huaizhi.

She took out a book about needlework and used it to kill time.

Gu Huaizhi glanced at her slowly.

"Have you forgotten?"

Ruan Zhen raised her eyes but did not react.

Gu Huaizhi raised his hand to signal and tapped the medicine box beside him.

Then, he lowered his eyes.

After unbuttoning the jade buckle at his waist and taking off his outer robe, he saw Ruan Zhen sitting there motionless. He had not yet reacted.

His face suddenly darkened.

"You said you would give me a different bandage every day, but now it's only the third day. Why do you still need me to give you something?"

Only then did Ruan Zhen think of changing the dressing.

She apologized: "It's my fault, but the carriage is no better than the house. There is a cold wind pouring in from outside."

She just said that it would be better to find the nearest inn.
