Chapter 1229: Chaos in Court 1

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Honored Princess Jing was the Crown Prince’s mother.

Gu Ruxue was the Crown Prince Consort….

The Crown Prince Consort and Young Master Gu were trying to get close to Chu Xiwen a while ago, and after a short time, Honored Princess Jing was already asking for her… It could not be a simple invitation.

The Crown Prince Consort, when combining with Honored Princess Jing, could definitely have planned something horrible. Although the Chu Family was irreplaceable in the court, the Chu Family was still working for the King. Since the Crown Prince was taking the throne in the future, he had already forced many people to take his side, apart from the King. Therefore, even if they were playing tricks, the Honored Princess Jing and the Crown Prince Consort would not care about the consequences.

Chu Xiwen frowned and showed a look of disgust.

!!

The capital was getting more and more filthy.

The manners and the rules, which used to be the norm, were all fading away after the Crown Prince and the Gu Family reached the top.

She wondered whether this country was going to flourish.

She knew what Honored Princess Jing was aiming for the moment the maid requested her presence.

Even if that was the case, she understood that she had to accept the invitation. After all, they were in the court!

Chu Xiwen got up and said to Gu Chaoyan. “Please tell my mother that I am at Honored Princess Jing’s place when she comes back.”

Gu Chaoyan nodded as she looked at Chu Xiwen, then she took a look at the maid working for Honored Princess Jing. Then she let Chu Xiwen go.

Gu Chaoyan suddenly thought of one thing – people with the same thoughts and goals were always one family.

Honored Princess Jing and the Gu Family were exactly the same! They would always use the worst methods to get whatever they wanted, and they could not even hide their purpose well.

They really thought that they were everything in the court.

Gu Chaoyan sighed slightly, looked at Sword One and whispered. “Sword One, tell Sword Two to protect the Elder Miss of the Chu Family. She has to be alright, Got it?”

Sword One nodded then she glanced about and left.

Gu Chaoyan looked around and tried to see where First Mrs. Chu was. She could not see her when seated among the concubine’s daughters.

After a long while, Gu Chaoyan saw where First Mrs. Chu was.

“First Mrs. Chu, please, may I have a few words with you?” Gu Chaoyan said lightly.

First Mrs. Chu saw that it was Gu Chaoyan.

Prime Minister Chu never talked about affairs in the court, but sometimes, he shared some issues with her. For example, after he returned from Li County, he mentioned that he did admire the Elder Miss of the Gu Family, who was a very talented person.

With that in mind, First Mrs. Chu smiled and went aside with Gu Chaoyan.

“Honored Princess Jing asked Elder Miss of the Chu Family to join her in her court,” Gu Chaoyan said nothing more than that.

Hearing this, First Mrs. Chu’s expression changed. She looked very anxious. Instead of saying anything more, she hurried off directly.

Suddenly, a chaotic sound and scream arose somewhere nearby.
