Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain

In the banquet hall, the maid slowly entered with exquisite dishes.

The faint fragrance permeates every corner, like a shadow.

Chu Yunyi and the eldest princess chatted happily over wine, their gentle and handsome appearance secretly made many maids blush.

"Why didn't you see Ning'er?"

He put down his wine glass, and looked around the banquet hall several times with inquiring eyes.

"I have asked someone to call her, and she must arrive soon."

Just as she was talking, the Eldest Princess laughed, pointed at the door and said, "No, the person has already arrived."

Chu Yunyi just raised a gentle smile, but froze for an instant when he saw the two people who came together.

"This is..." His suspicious eyes fell on Xie Yan.

After seeing Xie Yan's appearance, he became even more vigilant.

Why did such a handsome man appear beside Gu Ning?Could it be...

Thinking of those noble girls in the clan, when Chu Yunyi looked at Gu Ning, the dark color still lingered.

His cold eyes fell directly on Gu Ning and Xie Yan, especially after realizing that Xie Yan was just a humble guard, the nameless anger suddenly rose in his heart.

"Grandma!"

Gu Ning didn't even give him an extra look, and looked at the eldest princess with teary eyes.

Her limping movements have already attracted the attention of the Eldest Princess.

"What's going on here?"

"The county lord sprained his ankle when he went downstairs, but he didn't dare not to come to the banquet. The slaves are weak and afraid of falling the county lord, so they asked Xie's guards to help."

Chunyu quickly explained the matter against Chu Yunyi's particularly cold eyes.

Gu Ning's peach blossom tears were shining, and his straight nose was flushed, very pitiful and cute.

The suspicion in Chu Yunyi's heart quickly dissipated.

On weekdays, Gu Ning flattered himself in every possible way, so how could he turn his back on someone else just because of his face?

Just a bodyguard.

He took a few steps forward and took the initiative to help Gu Ning from Xie Yan's hand.

Unexpectedly, Gu Ning leaned softly on Chunyu's body: "If a man and a woman don't know each other, don't bother Your Highness."

Gu Ning's attitude was still lukewarm, but in Chu Yunyi's eyes, it was Gu Ning's eagerness to get caught.

"Okay." He withdrew his hand, his tone inexplicable, "I'll wait for you to figure it out."

Gu Ning leaned against Chunyu's arms and rolled her eyes fiercely.

Figured it out?

The scumbag is not over yet!

If he hadn't been an eyesore in front of him, his luck value wouldn't have risen so slowly!

Thinking of this, Gu Ning secretly ground his teeth, leaned against Chunyu's ear and whispered a word.

Chunyu was surprised for a moment, then nodded quickly.

Xie Yan took a deep look at Gu Ning, who would have thought that the county lord of Changning, who was infatuated with King Duan in the eyes of others, would actually make such a shady trick.

His gaze sent a chill down Gu Ning's spine.

Oops, why did I forget that Xie Yan is a person with profound inner strength, and ordinary whispers can't escape him at all.

Gu Ning smiled at him, trying to restore his ugly image in his heart.

But Xie Yan just averted his eyes lightly, saluted the Eldest Princess, and walked out quickly.

Chu Yunyi still held grudges about Fang Cai, seeing his leaving back, he asked casually, "Grandmother, what is this person's name?"

The eldest princess's smile faded a little, but then she returned to normal: "What? Your Highness is interested in him?"

"I just saw that his appearance and demeanor are much higher than ordinary guards, so I'm a little curious." Chu Yunyi smiled very gently, "Is he Ning'er's secret guard?"

"Then you underestimate him." The Eldest Princess smiled and said, "He is the orphan of An Lin's former subordinates. An Lin thinks highly of him. He will serve in the army in the future. He will accompany him this time. It's just that An Lin wants to teach him more skills so that he can walk better in the army."

"Oh?" Chu Yunyi's eyes flickered, "To be favored by my uncle, there must be something special about him."

The Eldest Princess waved her hand, and sighed, "I'm old, so I don't know the twists and turns. When Anlin comes back from his patrol, let him explain it to you in detail."

Chu Yunyi smiled and skipped the matter.

Gu Ning on the side was quite amazed, who would have thought that the eldest princess would be so bold, and directly put Xie Yan in front of the stage for this reason.

The eldest princess can be said to have brought the strategy of "the most dangerous place is the safest place" to the extreme.

Who would have expected that the orphan of the former prince was under the eyes of the emperor, and no one had discovered his identity.

Moreover, he will join the army openly in the future. There are many diehard loyalists of the former prince in the army, and the military power will change at that time...

Gu Ning lowered her eyes, her crow-feather eyelashes completely covered her gloating expression.

After leaving the banquet, Xie Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Yue Rong poked his head out from one side treacherously, and immediately shrank back when he met Xie Yan's knife-like cold eyes.

"What are you doing here?" Xie Yan said coldly, "Is everything settled?"

"Don't worry!" Yue Rong rubbed his hands with a smile, "This subordinate has already sent people to Jiangning to prepare, and when you and the general arrive, they can start immediately."

"However..." Yue Rong said again, "There are many families in the Jiangning Mansion, but the two merchants have the most salt farms in their hands."

"The Chen family and the Yuan family?"

Yue Rong had long been used to his master's indifferent voice, but he still couldn't help but froze on the spot because of his words.

"How do you know?"

"I heard what people said."

Xie Yan's thin lips pursed into a slight arc of ridicule.

He looked back, and under the numerous curtains, Chu Yunyi's figure seemed to be there but not there.

"Inquire more about the relationship between the Chen family and the Yuan family and other families, especially the connection with Duan Wang's family, and investigate clearly."

"Yes!"

Yue Rong was excited, and quickly responded.

Just as he was about to leave, Xie Yan behind him said quietly: "If Gu Ning makes any moves today, go and deal with the aftermath for her."

Yue Rong paused and stopped in place.

He looked at Xie Yan and was about to say something, but when he looked into Xie Yan's deep and bottomless phoenix eyes, he swallowed everything back.

"This subordinate understands!" Yue Rong said cautiously, "Don't worry, even if the county lord is going to kill and set fire, this subordinate will clean up for her."

"I just don't want to affect the whole plan because of her alone."

Xie Yan interrupted Yue Rong coldly.

Yue Rong chuckled: "All the subordinates understand! All the subordinates understand!"

After finishing speaking, he ran away in a hurry, lest he would settle the score after the thank-you banquet.

……

Gu Mansion, Tingyun Xiaozhu.

Ban Xia kept looking out, looking anxious.

After seeing that unhurried figure, she couldn't bear the anxiety in her heart anymore, and hurriedly said: "Second Miss, Eldest Miss has been waiting for you in the courtyard for a long time!"

Gu Yunwan smiled angrily: "Big sister is always gentle, so how about waiting a little longer? Doesn't it just match her temperament?"

Ban Xia stared at her, but her expression was relaxed, and she didn't pay attention to Gu Qingqiu at all.

"Big sister, do you think so?" She smiled provocatively at Gu Qingqiu.

Gu Yunwan's words were extremely harsh, but what Gu Qingqiu thought in his heart was still what she said that day.

At this moment, he nodded slowly: "Second sister, I have ordered someone to prepare tea, why don't you and I chat while drinking tea?"

Hearing this, Gu Yunwan sneered again, but this time she didn't refuse, but walked over Gu Qingqiu, like the master here, and walked in with her head held high.

Seeing this scene, Ban Xia was even more worried.

I don't know what the two of them said that day, my young lady seemed to be a different person, after returning to the house, she lost her mind and was immersed in sorrow all day long.

Ban Xia has been so anxious these days that her hair has fallen out all over the place, she wished she could arrest Gu Yunwan, but Gu Qingqiu kept stopping her.

"What are you looking at?" Gu Yunwan said sadly, "I'm worried that I'll dig out your eyeballs!"

Ban Xia trembled and lowered her head hastily.

All the maids in the house were cleared out, only two sisters remained.

Gu Qingqiu held the hot tea in his hand, but his body still couldn't warm up. Her lips moved a few times, before finally uttering a few words with difficulty: "What exactly do you want?"

"Sun Yu, I won't marry." Gu Yunwan said very simply, "As long as you promise me this matter, I will definitely bury this secret deep in my heart, and even if I die, I will not reveal a single bit of it!"

"how do you want to do it?"

"Kill him to avoid future troubles."

Gu Yunwan's understatement made Gu Qingqiu's expression suddenly change.

Her voice was sharp: "I only have a few serving maids by my side, how can... even His Royal Highness Duan Wang failed to get rid of him before!"

"That depends on your ability, big sister." Gu Yunwan chuckled lightly and said meaningfully, "You don't want this secret to be made public."

Gu Qingqiu's lips trembled, and his delicate face was completely drained of blood.

Gu Yunwan approached her, and whispered in her ear: "Whether it is to use the people left behind by His Highness Duan Wang, or spread the news that you are the uncle's illegitimate daughter... which is more important, the elder sister should know better than anyone else! "

"Give me some time." Gu Qingqiu closed his eyes and said word by word, "I will help you achieve what you want."

At this time, Gu Yunwan nodded in satisfaction: "I knew that big sister is so smart, she will definitely make the choice that is most beneficial to her."

"After all... Once your real identity is exposed, you will never want to stay in the Gu family. By then, your dream of marrying Prince Duan may be shattered!"

"I don't need you to remind me, I will keep it in mind." Gu Qingqiu clenched her hands tightly, and only when the sharp nails sank deeply into her palms could she maintain a moment of sobriety.

Gu Yunwan smiled and left proudly.

The next moment, the girl's exclamation and the crisp sound of porcelain breaking could be heard in Tingyun Xiaozhu.

Gu Yunwan looked up at the blue sky, her mood was unprecedentedly joyful.

Zhong Ling Yuxiu?Dignified and virtuous?

But it's all her disguise!

She has been with her for so many years, how can she not know what kind of heart is hidden under that harmless face?

This secret is destined to make her fall into the quagmire just like her!
