The Rebirth of an Orphan

The atmosphere of the family dinner was quite harmonious. Although Gu Lun was not very close to the Gu family, he was in a good mood today and drank some wine with everyone one by one.

But not long after, the butler walked up to Gu Yan with a happy face and said, "Master, the third lady is back." Everyone was startled and looked up at Gu Lun and Zhao Xihua.

Gu Yan stood up somewhat unexpectedly, while Mrs. Hua, who had received the news in advance, showed a smug look on her face.

Then a group of people dressed in court costumes walked in, led by the third daughter of the Gu family, Gu Yayu.

It turned out that Gu Yayu had been unwilling to be locked up in the farm and had been trying every possible means to leave.

President Mo Yuan suffered from a strange headache and went around looking for famous doctors. One who claimed to be a miracle doctor said he had a way to cure his headache, but he needed to find 749 girls to go to the palace to make incense. The burning of the incense could not only cure Mo Yuan's headache, but also eliminate fatigue and help him sleep. Gu Yayu took this opportunity to become an incense maker.

After entering the Presidential Palace, Gu Yayu tried to recommend herself to the President's bed. Mo Yuan heard that it was the third daughter of the Gu family who showed up in front of him. In order to win over the Gu family, he made an exception and took her in as his concubine.

She now needs to receive some special court etiquette and talent training at the Gu family, and will enter the Presidential Palace in seven days.

The Gu family was a little dumbfounded, not knowing whether this was a happy event or a disaster for the Gu family. Old Master Gu had long said that the daughters of the Gu family would never enter the presidential palace or get involved with the royal family.

But at this point, Gu Yan had no choice but to arrange for people to clean up Gu Yayu's previous residence, and also arranged for that group of palace servants to live there.

The Gu family dinner ended in this chaotic and exciting situation. Because they had to attend a palace banquet in the evening and worship their ancestors the next day, Gu Lun was worried that Zhao Xihua would not be able to bear it, so he went back to the East Garden to rest.

Zhao Xihua was really a little tired. She leaned on the sofa. Gu Lun sat beside her and gently pressed her temples. Zhao Xihua did not reject Gu Lun's increasingly intimate actions. She just asked in a low voice: "What are you going to do about your third sister's matter?"

Gu Lun snorted coldly, "She is the same as Madam Hua, and she also has some cruel methods that catch people off guard."

But things have come to this point, it is impossible to get rid of Gu Yayu, we can only take it one step at a time.

"Don't worry, Hua'er. This must have been the idea of ​​that idiot Madam Hua. She pushed her own daughter into the fire pit and thought she was taking advantage. Didn't she think that the people in it were all good people?"

Zhao Xihua said: "I'm afraid that Madam Hua has seen that she can no longer control you, but she doesn't want to see you become powerful, so she wants to use her daughter to gamble and suppress you."

Gu Lun smiled faintly and whispered in Zhao Xihua's ear: "The president won't live much longer..."

Zhao Xihua's eyes suddenly widened, but soon she understood. This meant that Mrs. Hua really had killed her own daughter.

"Son-in-law, the third lady wants you and the young lady to go to her place." Pingshui came in and reported.

A trace of disgust flashed across Gu Lun's face, and he said coldly: "He really thinks he is a noble in the palace. I don't have time to deal with him. I won't go."

Zhao Xihua thought about it. After all, the Third Miss was already the confirmed concubine. Or...

"Pingshui, just tell her that her uncle has gone to work. I'll go see her later."

"What are you doing? Ignore her." Gu Lun couldn't bear to see others suppressing Zhao Xihua.

Zhao Xihua smiled and said, "You don't have to act on impulse. The affairs of the palace can be big or small. Now that you have reached this position, you are afraid of being criticized everywhere, so it is better to be careful."

Gu Lun looked at Zhao Xihua who was already changing clothes and said with a smile: "Hua'er, you are concerned about me, right? You are indeed my good wife."

Zhao Xihua just smiled and said nothing else. After packing up, she took Pingshui out of East Garden.

When Zhao Xihua arrived at Gu Yayu's main house, she saw a row of servants in court costumes standing outside the house. When they saw Zhao Xihua coming, they all bowed and saluted.

Gu Lun's current status is incomparable to what it was before. This young lady is said to be Gu Lun's favorite, so how dare they neglect her?

When Zhao Xihua walked into the room, she saw Gu Yayu sitting on a chair in a beautiful dress. Before she could say anything, Gu Yayu stood up.

"Sister-in-law is here. I haven't seen her for a long time and I really miss her." The attitude was quite cordial, but the smile in his eyes was not quite there, and there was even a hint of arrogance and complacency.

Zhao Xihua hurriedly asked Pingshui to take out the gift she had prepared and said, "Congratulations, Madam. This is a little gift from me. Madam, just treat it as an object and play with it casually."

The gift Zhao Xihua gave was a ruby ​​necklace and a pair of fine jade bracelets, which were valuable yet elegant.

Gu Yanyu smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you are too polite. I know that we didn't like each other before, but that was because I, your younger sister, was ignorant. Sister-in-law, please don't take it to heart."

Zhao Xihua smiled faintly: "Young Madam, you are too kind."

After Zhao Xihua sat down, Gu Yanyu personally poured tea for Zhao Xihua and brought it to her, saying with a smile: "Why is my brother so busy? Doesn't he even want to come and see me, his sister?"

Zhao Xihua knew that she was going to bring the conversation up with Gu Lun, and she had already anticipated this.

"Someone from the Presidential Palace just called him away. He is indeed quite busy."

Gu Yanyu calmed down and said, "My brother is still very favored by the president recently. This is also the luck of our Gu family."

Zhao Xihua knew what Gu Yanyu was planning. If a woman in the palace wanted to live long, she needed a strong support from her family. This woman was a little too ambitious, and it was ridiculous.

Gu Yanyu stood up and walked to Zhao Xihua and said, "Zhao Xihua, I know you hate me, but there are some things I need to make clear to you."

"I am now your appointed young mistress. You should think about yourself. Gu Lun is working hard to make wedding clothes for others. Even if those princes ascend to the throne, what will happen? It's still the same. When the high bird is gone, the good bow is hidden. When the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked."

Zhao Xihua looked at the woman in front of her, she was really crazy.

Gu Yanyu continued, "A man should know the current situation and be a hero. Tell Gu Lun that no matter what, he and I are still blood relatives. If he supports my child to ascend to the throne in the future, he will be the uncle of the emperor and enjoy endless wealth and glory. It is better than supporting other princes. This is his right way. Do you understand?"

Zhao Xihua didn't know what to say. She just felt that the girls of the Gu family had really been spoiled by Mrs. Hua. Not to mention that the president was in poor health now, even if Gu Yanyu was pregnant with a prince, those adult princes were already fully grown. She was actually still dreaming like this. It was simply wishful thinking.

The old president is so sick now. Even if Gu Yayu is young and beautiful, Mo Yuan is still unable to help her. What is Gu Yanyu still thinking about? Getting pregnant with a little prince?
