Chapter 401 Being near the water tower doesn't guarantee you'll get the moon first!
Half an hour later, their first meeting ended in a somewhat strange and awkward atmosphere.
After seeing Mo Shaoshang and Mo Xiaoliu off, Gu Qingyue, accompanied by Mu Yunchu, went to the teahouse in the backyard to meet Prince Jing and Prince Sheng. After exchanging a few polite words, she took her leave.
Although not particularly lively, the atmosphere was peaceful.
Gu Qingyue's identity has changed; she has become the future Princess Consort of Li, and naturally, the sister-in-law of Prince Jing and Prince Sheng.
No matter how much King Jing hated him, he couldn't show it. He treated King Li with great courtesy, and it was impossible to tell that the two were already mortal enemies.
Several assassination attempts in the dead of night, back and forth, had long been an unspoken secret between the two.
Gu Qingyue naturally had no idea.
For Gu Qingyue, today is the grand opening day of Wenxianglou. Since everyone who comes is a guest, she naturally has to treat them well.
Prince Jing was as gentle and polite as ever, while Prince Sheng, unlike his usual quiet self, praised Gu Qingyue's tea and snacks repeatedly.
Furthermore, they warmed up to each other by saying that the Duke of Zhenguo's family would be related by marriage in the future.
This deepened Gu Qingyue's wariness of them. The two worked together seamlessly, and their intentions were clearly not small; they should not be underestimated.
In the afternoon, Cui Jiaojiao, Zhao Yunnan, Zhang Yuying, Mei Xiaoyuan and several other girls arrived. Of course, Fourth Brother also fulfilled his promise to bring his classmates to support the event.
Cui Jiaojiao and her companions watched the tea ceremony performance, drank tea, and ate the newly served tea snacks, and were naturally extremely satisfied.
The group of classmates that Fourth Brother brought were even more exaggerated; as soon as they tasted the tea and snacks, they all praised them highly.
In one afternoon, he ordered all the tea and snacks at Wenxianglou, consuming at least one-tenth of the stock prepared for Gu Qingyue's opening day, and he ate with a big smile on his face.
Gu Qingyue thought that since they were her fourth brother's classmates and had come to support the opening of Wenxianglou, she, as the owner, should naturally treat them well.
So, Gu Qingyue went in and greeted them as the hostess, which made the boys' eyes light up and their blood boil.
Needless to say, the boys had never seen Gu Yuanen's sister before, and they never expected that Gu Qingyue would be so stunningly beautiful!
Apart from Yunlan Zhiyun, whom Gu Qingyue had met at Linfeng Academy before, all the other teenagers were stunned.
Since it was the second time Gu Qingyue had met Yun Lanzhi, she naturally became more friendly. After exchanging greetings, she left, leaving a group of teenagers dumbfounded.
Is this the legendary beauty of Beijing these past few months?! One of the top ten talented women?!
They're going crazy!
Being near the water tower doesn't guarantee you'll get the moon first!
Gu Yuanen actually hid his sister so well!!
Gu Qingyue had no idea that as soon as she stepped out of the private room, Yun Lanzhi was immediately surrounded by a group of boys.
"Senior brother, how do you know Sister Yuan En?"
"Yes, Senior Brother Yun, why are you hiding this? When did you meet Miss Gu? How come I don't know?"
Yun Lanzhi was dumbfounded. The usually gentle and refined man was confused by the question and had no choice but to say, "Miss Gu visited the academy to see Headmaster Lin last time. I happened to see her there."
"Senior Brother Yun, that's not right of you. We are all scholars, how can we be so impolite? We should at least step forward and pay our respects, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" a bunch of teenagers echoed.
Gu Yuanen was pushed to the outside of the crowd and couldn't help but rub his forehead. He was most afraid that these young men would talk nonsense after seeing his little sister.
It seems that it's ultimately unavoidable.
Throughout the afternoon, laughter and chatter filled the two large private rooms, one upstairs and one downstairs, making Gu Qingyue feel very comfortable and satisfied.
Wenxianglou had a very auspicious first day of business and made a fortune.
Gu Qingyue was still all smiles when she returned to Feiyuexuan that evening.
Of course, she and Mu Yun Chu also took a trip to the outside of Prince An's mansion in the afternoon.
There was no sign of any activity at the Prince An's residence yet. In fact, when she released her spiritual power, she only saw that Prince An spent the entire afternoon reading in his study and fishing by the lake in the mansion, living a very leisurely life.
Perhaps because it was broad daylight, even if he had a plan, he probably wouldn't actually take action.
Ugh, no good show to watch, not fun at all!
As Gu Qingyue lay in bed, thinking about the events at the Prince An's residence, she felt there was something fishy about it.
But the thought of her Fragrant Pavilion made her happy again!
Overjoyed, she flashed into the space.
She wants to celebrate!
Inside the space, Little Moon lay on the steps basking in the sun, while Little Golden Snake coiled around it; the two little creatures were incredibly relaxed.
Gu Qingyue was filled with jealousy. Although she hadn't shown her face in the lobby all day, she was exhausted.
After stroking Little Moon's fluffy body and flicking Little Golden Snake's head, Gu Qingyue yawned and went into the room.
As soon as the door opened, the two little ones' eyes lit up, and in a flash, they darted into the room and ran in front of Gu Qingyue.
Gu Qingyue stretched her waist and took off her clothes as she walked. When she got to the bathroom, she saw Xiao Yueyue jump onto the faucet and start filling the bathtub with water.
Gu Qingyue's lips twitched. What kind of little vixen was this? And to make matters worse, she was a female!
Little Moon: You have no idea of your own beauty, beautiful lady! I just love to admire it!
Soaking in warm water, Gu Qingyue sipped a glass of red wine and sighed contentedly.
Really comfortable!
Bring Mu Yun Chu here to enjoy yourself sometime!
and many more!
Why would she have thought of bringing Mu Yun Chu in? Has she already trusted him that much?
She stroked the little fox's red fur, lost in thought.
It was the early hours of the morning, just before dawn.
This is when people are sleeping the most soundly.
A figure gracefully landed in Feiyue Pavilion.
On the bed, Gu Qingyue suddenly opened her eyes.
She released her mental energy immediately.
It's jade ink!
Gu Qingyue immediately got up and dressed.
When she opened the door, she saw Jiang Wan standing in the courtyard, quietly waiting for her with Yu Mo.
"Why are you here? What happened?"
Gu Qingyue frowned.
"A letter came from Mu Dong. Prince Li said there's been some activity at Prince An's residence, and he wants you to go there," Yu Mo said urgently in a low voice as soon as she entered.
Gu Qingyue was taken aback. Was there some movement?
"Wait a moment," Gu Qingyue said before entering the inner room again.
When she came out again, Gu Qingyue had styled her hair in a man's bun and was dressed in gray men's clothing, making her completely inconspicuous.
Unlike before, she now carried a silver half-face mask.
She nodded to the two of them, then immediately leaped onto the courtyard wall and disappeared into the night.
Behind them, Yu Mo and Jiang Wan followed at a distance.
"How is it?" As soon as Gu Qingyue arrived outside the Prince An's mansion, she found him at the place where she and Mu Yun Chu had hidden yesterday.
Upon hearing this, Mu Yun Chu turned around and saw Gu Qing Yue's attire, showing no surprise whatsoever.
The little girl always gave him unexpected surprises. He waved his hand, signaling her to look towards the Prince An's residence.
Gu Qingyue stood on a tree branch, looking into the distance.
Of course, she instantly released her mental energy; she not only wanted to see, but also to hear their whispers, hehe.
"Your Highness, everything is ready. Shall we proceed?"
