Chapter 208 3 Princes
Chapter 208 3 Princes
Worried that Chao Yunxuan had really met with an accident, Xie Xun did not dare to delay even a little and immediately reported another birthday: "This is her brother's birthday. His birthday will be shortly after mine."
Gu Zhiyi made calculations quickly.
After a while, she put down her hand and her expression returned to calm again: "Sir, do you simply want to know where Miss Chao is at the moment, or do you want to know her past experiences?"
Xie Xun was speechless for a moment: "Is there anything unusual about her past?"
Without waiting for Gu Zhiyi to answer, he suddenly waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Just tell me where she is now and whether she is safe."
Since this was the client's firm request, Gu Zhiyi naturally had no objection. She said in a long voice: "She is now in the Third Prince's mansion and is extremely safe. If everything goes well, you will be able to meet her again tomorrow."
Xie Xun's expression froze instantly, and an indescribable gloom flashed across his eyes.
In a fleeting moment, he silently responded: "I understand."
He had no doubts about the result of Gu Zhiyi's divination. After all, only a few people knew that Yunxuan had a friendship with the third prince. Even his parents had never heard of it. It was naturally impossible for Gu Zhiyi to know it in advance.
The fact that she was able to deduce this accurately shows that she was not lying.
Sure enough, Yunxuan was hiding in the third prince's mansion.
As night fell, Gu Zhiyi's nursing task finally came to an end.
She did not pay much attention to Xie Xun's uneasy state of mind at the moment. She just told Xie Lin to take good care of his master and then returned to her own residence.
Returning to her own territory, Luluo finally couldn't hold back her inner unhappiness and vented, "Didn't that beauty swear that she would never step into the Ningguo Mansion again? Isn't this breaking her promise?"
She had complete faith in her young lady's ability to divine.
Gu Zhiyi seemed very open-minded: "Xie Xun was seriously injured after all, so it is reasonable for her to come to visit him this time."
Luoluo was still full of anger, as if Chao Yunxuan's every move could arouse her disgust. Gu Zhiyi smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, she won't live here."
This is also the reason why she is willing to mediate.
Originally, she only realized from the servants' faces that Mo Ju Garden would be uninhabited for a long time, but the divination just now allowed her to gain insight into some unusual information.
It turns out that Chao Yunxuan is not a native soul of this world, but a soul from another world.
In other words, she is not the real Chao Yunxuan. The real Chao Yunxuan had died unexpectedly a month before she met Xie Xun.
And this soul from another world was obviously an extremely powerful being in her original world.
No wonder she has such a condescending attitude.
After she took over the body of the real Chao Yunxuan, she not only expanded her network of contacts, but the third prince also became a member of her network.
In the days to come, she will not return to the Ningguo Mansion because she will live in the prince's palace.
The next morning, when the sun first shone, Gu Zhiyi finished her morning lessons and was about to have dinner when Luluo ran in hurriedly: "Oh no, Miss, Miss Chao is really back!"
Gu Zhiyi calmly asked back: "Didn't you already know she was coming back last night? Why are you so flustered?"
Luoluo explained anxiously: "I only knew she was coming back last night, but I never expected that the Third Prince would come with her!"
The third prince!
He is a distinguished member of the royal family, a prince favored by the current emperor, and a person who truly holds power, second only to the emperor!
In the current Western Wei Dynasty, apart from the emperor himself, there are few people who can make the Third Prince feel fearful.
Among all the attention, the one who was obviously not paying attention was his son-in-law who seemed quite incompetent.
If the son-in-law can't even protect himself, wouldn't the young lady be in a precarious situation?
Miss Chao's arrival is like a storm, she comes with great force and obviously has ulterior motives. What should we do?
Gu Zhiyi seemed unusually calm: "Why panic? They are here to visit Master Xie, not to cause any trouble."
"Of course, if there are really people who don't know their place and insist on coming to cause trouble, then we'll just treat it as a free performance. Wouldn't it be more exciting and thrilling to have the dignitaries personally perform for you than to pay for tickets to watch the show?"
Although Luoluo felt that such a metaphor was a little unbelievable, since the young lady said so, her nervousness gradually eased.
Old Madam Xie had to go out early in the morning on an important matter, so the only two people staying in the mansion at the moment were Gu Zhiyi and Xie Xun.
As Xie Xun was an injured person, he had a fixed recovery diet, so Gu Zhiyi ate comfortably in her own yard.
When they were halfway through the meal, the butler came hurriedly to report that the third prince had arrived and asked Gu Zhiyi to go out to greet him.
Gu Zhiyi gently swallowed a mouthful of seafood porridge and responded calmly: "I know."
However, Green Ivy was a little uneasy.
Gu Zhiyi changed her clothes and prepared to go out to greet them.
She had intended to wait at the door in person, but just as she reached the door, she learned that the Third Prince had gone straight to Wuyang Courtyard.
Luoluo looked at the housekeeper in confusion: "Why didn't the housekeeper tell me earlier that the Third Prince would go directly to Wuyang Courtyard? Madam made such a wasted trip."
Butler Xie wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead and explained awkwardly: "This... I didn't expect the Third Prince to act so quickly. He had just arrived when we got the news..."
"It's okay." Gu Zhiyi waved her hand, signaling the butler to leave, then turned and walked towards Wuyang Courtyard.
"Greetings, Third Prince." Gu Zhiyi walked into Wuyang Courtyard and politely performed a standard etiquette.
The third prince has a noble temperament, elegant demeanor, a handsome and elegant face, and always has a gentle smile on his lips.
He seemed not to notice someone saluting, but turned to Chao Yunxuan and said, "Yunxuan, you only drank half a bowl of porridge this morning, which is extremely bad for the recovery of your wound. You can't be willful at noon today. Even if you can't eat, you must force yourself to eat well. Only in this way can your wound heal quickly."
There was no wave of emotion on Chao Yunxuan's pretty, cold face; she just stared at Xie Xun with a dull look.
Xie Xun looked at him affectionately.
Both of them seemed to ignore Gu Zhiyi's existence.
Gu Zhiyi repeated again: "I am Gu Zhiyi, the commoner, meeting the Third Prince!"
The third prince just took a sip of tea leisurely and ignored Gu Zhiyi's existence.
However, Chao Yunxuan and Xie Xun noticed it. Chao Yunxuan's expression fluctuated slightly, but she still did not say anything to remind the third prince who seemed to be deaf.
Xie Xun looked at Gu Zhiyi who was still kneeling, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes: "Third Prince, Zhiyi is here."
Chao Yunxuan frowned, her eyes like the cold wind of winter, cold but sharp: "Master Xie is a model of loving his wife."
Her tone was full of sarcasm and disdain.
"Third Prince, can't you see the love that Master Xie has for his beautiful wife? Why don't you quickly relieve Lady Ningguo of the pain of paying respects? Are you willing to damage your long-standing friendship because of a woman's personal grudge?"
