1446 Opening 2
Mrs. Gu was wearing a twisted look on her face, as if she had become old overnight. Mrs. Gu pa.s.sed out at the tombs, but Gu Zhenkang did not care about her. She had to support herself, no matter how miserable she felt.
Gu Chaoyan was the Phoenix Girl. So the ruthless Gu Zhenkang was busy sucking up to her instead.
What should she and Ruxue as well as Yunhe do in the future? She was very bothered and was trying to come up with plans while seated in the room.
She had not expected that such a thing would happen, thus not having a backup place. What she had stolen from Ms. Lin was all spent on Gu Mansion rather than on herself. She was very worried about being driven out of the mansion, and about what Ruxue and Yunhe should do, since they were still young and lively.
!!
Mrs. Gu was just wondering what to do when Gu Ruxue rushed in, asking her this question.
Mrs. Gu did not believe the result. And she could not figure out why, but… it was a fact.
She witnessed it at the imperial tombs.
Mrs. Gu had no choice but to say miserably. “It is Gu Chaoyan the bi*ch who opened the door to enchantment. But Ruxue, don’t worry. You are the Crown Prince Consort so you won’t have a bad future, even if you aren’t the Phoenix Girl.”
“That bi*ch!” Gu Ruxue shouted with teeth clenched.
She knew that even if she was not the Phoenix Girl. She was still the Crown Prince Consort, who would become the Queen in the future, but she did not want that bi*ch to take the t.i.tle as the Phoenix Girl!
And that didn’t make any sense.
“My finger was hurt and I bled. Hundreds of birds flew over my head. And that scene appeared again at my Adulthood Ceremony. So mom, why did that bi*ch open the door to enchantment? That is ridiculous!” Gu Ruxue could not believe the truth. She repeatedly stressed what she could not understand.
Mrs. Gu could not figure it out either.
There must have been some conspiracy.
“Ruxue, maybe Gu Chaoyan didn’t cause all of these, but she did open the door to enchantment in front of everyone. So we need to calm down and figure out everything, until the truth is revealed.” Mrs. Gu consoled her.
She had just finished speaking, when Gu Zhenkang walked in and said, “Anyway, you should watch out. The two sisters should not fight against each other. Ruxue is the Crown Prince Consort, the future Queen whilst Gu Chaoyan is the Phoenix Girl. Those are two good things for us. You are the madame of the Gu Family so you should try to come up with a solution of how to raise the Gu Family’s status in the capital, rather than turn the sisters against each other, like this.”
“…”
“I know you always hated Ms. Lin, but you killed her already. Gu Chaoyan has not lived well at the Gu Mansion. You should be done with your grudge against her.”
“…”
“I am on your side, but Gu Chaoyan is the Phoenix Girl, so we should drop our grudge.”
“…”
“Let the two sisters cooperate, so that we can win together.”
Gu Zhenkang was telling them the principles.
He had thought about this for a long while before making a decision.

On the rooftop.
Hearing what Gu Zhenkang said, Sword Three and Sword Four exchanged a look between themselves, looking troubled.
They had heard the history of the Gu Mansion.
