Gu Ruanruan thought, "How can I say this?"

The nanny took a look around and whispered: "Second Miss, can I go in and talk to you?"

She was just an old nanny and a woman. Gu Ruanruan naturally agreed. She was desperate and she was willing to try any method.

After they were brought into the room, the old woman said: "Prime Minister Gu and the second prince also had some misunderstandings because of the eldest lady. After all, everyone has a temper when their engagement is ruined openly, not to mention the second prince. I have a high status and am really angry, so I said a few words in the court..."

As the old grandma spoke, she observed Gu Ruanruan's expression again and again.

Seeing that she didn't look worried, he continued: "The second prince respects Prime Minister Gu as the pillar of the court and wants to seek peace. However, Prime Minister Gu is unwilling. I wonder if the second young lady is willing to be the peacemaker?"

Gu Ruanruan was not stupid at all. He heard some tricks, but he did not agree immediately.

What happened in the court had an impact on her whole body. She just pretended that she didn't understand: "What do you mean by this? Didn't you say that you want to talk about the dowry?"

The nanny stopped trying to be pretentious and said, "The second prince has fallen in love with the second young lady, and he plans to adopt the second young lady as his adopted sister. When the time comes, he will buy the second young lady a dowry as his adopted brother."

Mammy was good at tempting: "Think about it, when the time comes, the second prince and the emperor's heirs will be willing to help you. As the elder of the family, Prime Minister Gu will be embarrassed to ignore it anymore and will definitely add a share, and the Zhenbei Hou Mansion will naturally not do it. He will do the thing of getting dowry for free."

"The second prince said that I have prepared a generous dowry for you, and together with Prime Minister Gu's share, it's hard to say who is more beautiful!"

When Gu Ruanruan heard this, he was actually a little moved.

However, she knew that Gu Cheng was stubborn and did not want to take sides among the princes, so it was impossible for her to agree to her proposal of being a adopted sister to the second prince, so she hesitated.

Seeing this, the old grandma added another irritation: "Second young lady, are you afraid that your dowry will be more than that of your first daughter, which will make her lose face? You are really kind-hearted."

What the old mama said was ironic.

Now that everyone in the house knew that the two of them were at odds, how could Gu Ruanruan still be willing to worry about Gu Baiyu's feelings? He wanted to slap her in the face!

What the old nanny said was tantamount to tempting her. With such an opportunity to embarrass her eldest sister, it was up to her whether she wanted to do it or not.

Gu Ruanruan inevitably remembered that they were both daughters of the prime minister. Now, whether they were marrying someone or their reputations, they were completely different. How could she be willing to give up this opportunity?

"But Mommy, my father is the most stubborn, I'm afraid..."

"You are worrying too much. You are Prime Minister Gu's daughter. He just doesn't want to bow to the second prince. He probably can't lose face. Who is willing to be an enemy of the emperor? The second young lady can talk to the second prince in private. The prince has become a sworn brother and sister. If you tell Prime Minister Gu again, maybe Prime Minister Gu will think that you have relieved him of the embarrassment. If there is a step, are you not willing to step down?"

"This is a good thing for both you and the Prime Minister!"

Having said this, Gu Ruanruan was already very excited.

She had no concept of legitimate direct descendants in her mind. In her opinion, several princes might inherit the throne in the future.

What's wrong with being stubborn like her father? How can you put all your eggs in one basket?

Thinking of this, Gu Ruanruan gritted his teeth and said: "Can you please tell the second prince that I am willing. But I must hide it from my father first, find an opportunity to become a sworn brother and sister, and then make an agreement with him." .”

The old nanny immediately became happy: "It's done! I will order someone to send the message tomorrow!"

After seeing off the old nanny, Gu Ruanruan completely relaxed.

She was willing to become adopted siblings with the second prince, not entirely because of the dowry.

Some things that happened recently made her understand a lot.

Gu Baiyu was a legitimate daughter, loved by her parents and supported by the Marquis of Zhenbei.

What about her? She has nothing!

So what if she treats people sincerely?

Don't even take her seriously!

Since her parents don't want to love her, and the Prime Minister's Mansion can't be her supporter, she has to find a way to support her!

No matter how majestic the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is, can it still outshine the royal family?

Thinking of this, a flash of ambition flashed in Gu Ruanruan's eyes.

She was crippled by this prime minister's house in the past, she should have woken up long ago.

She came from another world and just became an ordinary person. Wouldn't it be a waste of natural resources?

......

Not to mention what Gu Ruanruan was thinking, Gu Baiyu had a good sleep here.

Not only that, but I also had a dream that was hazy and beautiful.

There were only her and Xiao Yanlin in the dream, and they had further contact.

It's still a kiss, but this time it's not the forehead, but the lips...

When Gu Baiyu woke up, his whole body was on fire.

After living two lives, she has a blank slate in these aspects, but she is not ashamed to have such a dream. It's really...

"Miss? What's wrong with you?"

Lingyu felt very strange.

Her young lady is the most self-disciplined and observant. When she wakes up every morning, she only needs a moment to wake up before getting up and washing herself. She never does anything like staying in bed without getting up.

Why are you covering your cheeks with a quilt today, and your cheeks seem to be very red?

Lingyu was startled, "Miss! Why is your face so red? Don't you catch a cold when you went out yesterday? Do you have a fever?"

After hearing this, Gu Baiyu finally got up from the bed: "No, it's just a little hot."

Lingyu felt more and more strange.

is it hot?

It's an early spring morning. It's cold in Kyoto. People with poor health have to wear a big cloak before going out in the morning!

Gu Baiyu didn't want to talk to Lingyu anymore, so he got up and asked Lingyu to wash his face.

When he sat down in front of the dressing table, he found that his cheeks were still red, and when he faced Lingyu's confused gaze, he immediately became angry with himself.

Gu Baiyu, Gu Baiyu, you are not living up to expectations!

It's just a wiping on the forehead, is it so exciting?

She simply told Lingyu: "Go and get the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and I will copy the Heart-Cleaning Mantra to my mother again."

Lingyu went out worriedly.

The young lady is so abnormal. She is about to get married. What's the point of copying these heart-clearing mantras all day long?

Lingyu had something on her mind, so she walked very quickly with her head down, not paying attention to the people around her. When she turned the corner, she suddenly heard Gu Ruanruan's voice and couldn't help but stop.

She has learned the rules of the prime minister's house. She is not allowed to eavesdrop on the master's speech at this time. She must either leave immediately or say hello, but...

The voice that spoke to Gu Ruanruan was clearly one of the nuns!

Thinking that Gu Baiyu asked her to pay attention to Gu Ruanruan's movements and not to cause any trouble before getting married, Lingyu shrank her body into the corner and listened seriously.

Just listen to Gu Ruanruan say: "I'll leave the dowry to grandma."

The grandma's voice was very polite: "No! Second lady, you don't have to be so polite. You are the master. Don't worry, I will make it clear to you. Just wait for the good news."

Lingyu felt even more strange. How could those three nuns, who were supposed to be imperial concubines, be so polite to the second young lady?

And who is that ambiguous name?

Gu Ruanruan entered the Zhenbeihou Mansion as a concubine. Not having a dowry was a punishment for her misbehavior. Everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion reached a consensus on this. Who is helping her?

Lingyu had too many doubts in her heart and knew that this matter was not trivial. She didn't care about getting pens, ink, paper and inkstones, so she quickly returned to the room.

"Miss! I have something to report!"
