Upon hearing this, Gu Nanyuan couldn't help but look at Lin Ruoxuan who was standing beside him.

Although he didn't know what had happened, but looking at the tired look on Lin Ruoxuan's face, he knew that Lin Ruoxuan must have suffered a lot during this period of time.

"Father, mother, Xuan'er, thank you for your hard work during this period."

The Duke of Zhenguo and the Princess shook their heads.

"If you talk about hard work, it's not us who are hard at work. It's Xuan'er and your two brothers who have been searching for the thousand-year-old snow lotus for you. That's why you were able to wake up."

Gu Nanyuan was stunned when he heard this. When he thought about what the Millennium Snow Lotus was, his expression changed slightly.

After all, this thousand-year-old snow lotus is not an ordinary thing. There may not even be one in the entire Zhou Dynasty. It is so precious.

He remembered that he had heard someone say before that the second prince seemed to have a thousand-year-old snow lotus in his hand.

However, their relationship with the Second Prince did not seem to be so harmonious. After all, there were constant disputes among the princes in the court, and their Gu family did not have a team that supported that prince.

If that’s the case, then where did this thousand-year-old snow lotus in their family come from?

Thinking of this, Gu Nanyuan couldn't help but frowned.

He looked at his father and mother with a more serious look in his eyes.

"Father, did you get this thousand-year-old snow lotus from the Second Prince?"

When the Duke of Zhenguo heard Gu Nanyuan's words, he was stunned. He obviously did not expect Gu Nanyuan to ask this.

However, looking at the expression on Guo Nanyuan's face, the Duke of Zhenguo knew that he had misunderstood.

"Yuan'er, you misunderstood. This snow lotus was not obtained from the Second Prince. It was brought back for you by Xuan'er, Ze Shen, Zhen Nan and others."

The Duke of Zhenguo knew what his son was worried about. The situation in the court was becoming more and more serious.

After all, the older the emperor is, the more aggressive the princes are. If they stand on the wrong side, they will be punished by extermination of their entire clan, which the Gu family cannot afford.

Even if their family has a princess in charge, it is inevitable that the future ruler will use their Gu family as a target.

What's more, Gu Nanyuan also holds military power, and no one can guarantee whether the person who sits in that position in the future will be afraid of them.

Thinking of the current disputes in the court, the Duke of Zhenguo couldn't help but sigh.

When he looked at Gu Nanyuan, there was a hint of relief in his eyes.

At least his son was still sober and didn't do anything stupid.

And regarding the issue of taking sides, if his son had not reminded him back then, he would have probably gone down a path of no return.

"Don't worry, we will not have anything to do with any of the princes. As for this thousand-year-old snow lotus, it was obtained by Xuan'er and the others from the Zhao family."

When Gu Nanyuan heard that the Millennium Snow Lotus came from the Gu family, he couldn't help but frown. For a moment, he couldn't remember which family it was from the Zhao family.

"Father, I wonder who this Zhao family is..."

"I'm sure you're also aware of the Zhao family who just came to the capital a few years ago."

Gu Nanyuan was stunned when he heard this.

Thinking carefully about the situation of the Zhao family, he understood a little bit. But he didn't expect that a small Zhao family would have such a treasure.

"It's a waste of money for everyone."

Gu Nanyuan thought that they had bought this thousand-year-old snow lotus at a huge price, and felt a little guilty for a moment.

After hearing Nanyuan's words, the Duke of Zhenguo shook his head and said, "You misunderstood. This thousand-year-old snow lotus was not bought with money. It was stolen from the Zhao family by Xuan'er and the others."

The Duke of Zhenguo and the Princess had no intention of hiding from Gu Nanyuan the fact that Lin Ruoxuan and Qi Zeshen had stolen the thousand-year-old snow lotus from the Zhao family.

After all, Gu Nanyuan owed a favor to these children, and they had to tell Gu Nanyuan the whole story so that he would not forget their friendship.

The princess at the side also nodded repeatedly, "The divine doctor at the time said that if it weren't for the thousand-year-old snow lotus, you probably wouldn't have woken up that night, and you would have died by now."

Thinking of her son's dangerous situation at that time, the princess' eyes became red again, and she couldn't help but tighten her grip on her son's hand.

Seeing his mother like this, Gu Nanyuan felt bad. He didn't expect that he would be plotted against. Thinking of the people in the old city, his eyes turned cold.

So he did not find out the person behind it, but thinking of the attitude of the bearded man that day, Gu Nanyuan knew that there must be many people in the court who were targeting their Gu family.

But he didn't expect that he was poisoned and even implicated Lin Ruoxuan, Qi Zeshen and others.

Thinking of this, Gu Nanyuan's gaze couldn't help but fall on Lin Ruoxuan.

He wanted to say something, but when he saw his parents standing beside him, he didn't know how to start.

When the Duke of Zhenguo and the Princess saw his expressions, they knew that the two of them had something to say, so they didn't stay any longer.

"Your father has to entertain some guests today, so we won't stay here any longer. You can talk to Xuan'er and let him have a good rest."

Gu Nanyuan nodded and asked the servant to send the two people out.

After seeing the two people walking out of the yard, he pulled Lin Ruoxuan to sit down.

"Xuan'er, I'm sorry for making you suffer during this period of time."

Lin Ruoxuan shook her head. "I am willing to do this, you don't have to do this."

Seeing Gu Nanyuan finally waking up, Lin Ruoxuan felt relieved.

"You have done me such a great service in saving me this time. What do you want? As long as I can do it, I will satisfy you."

Gu Nanyuan held Lin Ruoxuan's hand, his eyes full of seriousness.

Gu Nanyuan was not trying to fool Lin Ruoxuan, he really wanted to know what Lin Ruoxuan wanted most.

However, Lin Ruoxuan shook her head and said, "When I marry into the Gu family in the future, the entire Gu family will be mine. What else do I need?"

Gu Nanyuan was stunned when he heard this, then he chuckled.

He raised his hand and held Lin Ruoxuan in his arms, and a look of pity appeared in his eyes.

Although Lin Ruoxuan had never complained about the hardship or tiredness in front of him, but looking at the look on Lin Ruoxuan's face, he knew that Lin Ruoxuan had not had a good time during this period.

Especially when he thought of those people from the Lin family, Gu Nanyuan became even more worried.

Gu Nanyuan knew very well what kind of person Lin Shiyuan was.

He has been in a coma for some time, and who knows what the Lin family might have done.

But since Lin Ruoxuan didn't say anything, he didn't dare to bring it up again.

He just looked at Lin Ruoxuan's smile and shook his head helplessly in his heart. After all, she was a silly girl.

Such a good opportunity to express gratitude, but she was unwilling to accept anything.

"Since you don't want anything, how about I give you my body?"

Lin Ruoxuan didn't expect Gu Nanyuan to say such a thing, and her cheeks turned red for a moment.

"What are you talking about?"
