Gu Qingxue did not say anything but cooperated and retreated with Kang Fujiang. She stood close to the wall and made way for the owner of the sedan.

The carriage quickly pa.s.sed by them, and Gu Qingxue was a little curious. “Eunuch Kang, which Lord’s carriage is this?”

“Lady Gu might not know, but the Moyun Kingdom has sent the ninth prince, Mo Yunye, to our Kingdom as an envoy. He only entered the capital two days ago.” As Kang Fujiang spoke, the smile on his face deepened. He gestured for Gu Qingxue to leave. Lady Gu, it’s getting late. We should leave quickly.”

Gu Qingxue nodded in agreement. She did not notice that the ninth prince’s carriage had slowed down.

A large hand with distinct joints pulled open the curtain, and a gaze fell on Gu Qingxue’s delicate back.

As if he wanted to imprint her back into the depths of his eyes, the ninth prince finally lowered the curtain and ordered, “Let’s go,” he said.

At the same time, at the Gu family’s grave in the suburbs.

The three little children followed Madam Qi and Nanny Sheng and stood in front of the two graves.

“Ye’er, mother is here to see you. Are you cold? Are you hungry?” Madam Qi gazed deeply at her son, Gu Ye’s grave. As she spoke, she didn’t forget to reach out and gently touch the words on the tombstone.

Next to Gu Ye’s grave was the grave of Gu Qingxue’s mother, the Madam Jiang. The two graves were placed together, and in the cold wind, they looked even more desolate.

Seeing that Madam Qi kept talking to Gu Ye’s grave, Nanny Sheng felt bitter. She glanced at Gong Lingyu, who was following them closely. “Reporting to the princess, this is the tomb of my master. Every year, when there are more important festivals, I would bring Old Madam here to pay respects. This time, it has been hard on princess to accompany us.”

Gong Lingyu put her hands together and bowed. Then, she replied to Nanny Sheng gently, “Sister Gu is not here, so I naturally have to take good care of you. Moreover, as a junior, it’s only right for me to come and visit. There’s no need to be so polite between you and me.

Nanny Sheng nodded with a smile, her eyes filled with grat.i.tude when she looked at Gong Lingyu.

Madam Qi was still talking to Gu Ye’s tombstone with a smile. The three little ones looked up at the two tombstones and then at Nanny Sheng.

“Nanny, are these the gravestones of our grandfather and grandmother?” Gu Lin raised his head and asked curiously.

Nanny Sheng reached out to stroke Gu Lin’s little head and nodded. “Eldest

Young Master, today, we have come to pay our respects to the Master and

Madam. You should learn from my actions and kneel down to pay your respects to the Master and Madam.”

After hearing what Nanny Sheng said, Dumby said in a baby voice, “Nanny, you don’t need to teach us, we all know how to do it. Mother taught us a long time ago how to pay respects.”

Gong Lingyu saw that the three little ones had already bowed three times and kowtowed nine times as they spoke. Their movements were indeed very standard, and all the necessary etiquette was not a problem.

“How did the three of you know?” Gong Lingyu could not help but be curious.

“Because mother taught us before and brought us to pay respects to father. Every year, mother would bring us to see father. Later on, when we wanted to see father, we would also sneak over.” As Lingbao spoke, she lowered her head in frustration. “However, every time we go there, we can only see a tombstone. We don’t even know what father looks like..
