1523 Understanding 2

Judging from how their father reacted and the situation of the land, smart people should know that the Phoenix Girl was definitely going to become the Crown Prince Consort. His Eighth Brother should step out of the way as soon as possible, then maybe he, as the Crown Prince, would think about rewarding him for that.

What a pity. It seemed that his Eighth Brother had no shame, and even dreamed about marrying the Phoenix Girl!

Marrying the Phoenix Girl? He did not deserve to marry the Phoenix Girl!

Zhou Huailing threw a very disdainful look at Zhou Huaijin as if he were staring at an idiot.

!!

“Your future Princess Consort? You are not yet married, and we are not sure about the future right? And even if you are married, we can still not be sure about the future either. Eighth Brother, you grew up in the court, and you should know what the rules are about many things. You should learn to think, sometimes, okay?” Zhou Huailing seemed to be teaching Zhou Huaijin a lesson.

That made him feel better.

Ignoring Zhou Huaijin, he turned to Gu Chaoyan. “Lady Chaoyan, if you are not feeling unwell, come with me to the court. Father has something to talk to you about. I was going to tell you about it personally, but it seems that you aren’t doing well. So come with me to the court, so that the imperial doctors can check you up too.”

The King had intended to let Zhou Huailing spend more time with the Phoenix Girl. And that was what he was here for, but so many accidents had happened, and Zhou Huailing had no other way but to separate Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin.

If she could follow him into the court… that would be great.

Gu Zhenkang was totally useless, in his opinion.

He should have stopped Zhou Huaijin when he was here.

He felt regretful that he ever laid his hope in this man. He had thought that he could be of some help, but this man was slowing him down!

He needed to think about his future plan.

Zhou Huailing glanced at Gu Zhenkang, who s.h.i.+vered, feeling that something was wrong.

He added. “Gu Chaoyan, don’t waste any more time here, if you have been summoned to the court. Just follow the Crown Prince!”

The Crown Prince had the say about the Gu Mansion’s future, so Gu Zhenkang needed to keep the Crown Prince happy.

Gu Chaoyan frowned slightly.

“What does the King want?” Gu Chaoyan sounded indifferent. She was getting very impatient.

She was showing that she really did not want to be in the court right now.

Junyi next to Zhou Huailing said clearly, “The North Qi Land started to attack other countries and our borders, together with the Cloud Land’s were all attacked, but the message from the border came and said that the Shadow Door removed the North Qi Land and the North Qi Land had retreated. So there should be no wars within a short period of time.”

“…”

“The Shadow Door is a powerful force and we can’t really ignore it. The King expects the Phoenix Girl to join us for the discussion about how to get the Shadow Door to serve the Saint Divine Land.”
