Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

As it turned out, Gu Chan's plan was really good.

Zuo Yun, who was under the effect of the drug, was sent to the Thirteenth Princess's boudoir. When he saw her seductive figure, he couldn't help himself on the spot.

Soon the candles in the room went out, and Princess Thirteen finally had her belated wedding night.

Gu Chan stood outside the courtyard and shouted, "All of you maids and servants, leave and don't disturb the princess and her husband."

"Yes, Prince Chan." Everyone responded in unison and quickly retreated.

Gu Chan grinned and left on her own.

More than half an hour later, Gu Chan returned to Prince Chan's Mansion.

As soon as she walked into the front hall, she found Zuo Xin sitting at the table doing the accounts. Seeing her coming back, Zuo Xin quickly stopped and said, "Husband, have you had dinner?"

"I ate at the princess's mansion." Gu Chan said with a smile.

After saying that, she walked over to Zuo Xin and sat down. She took out the 1,000 taels of silver note from her sleeve, put it on the table and said, "This is the share of the money my elder brother and I earned from opening the Shuidi Lao Restaurant. It's a total of 1,000 taels of silver. From now on, you can ask my elder brother for your share every month. The specific amount of silver will be divided according to how much money you make that month."

"So the restaurant that eldest brother renamed was opened by you and him in partnership!" Zuo Xin said in surprise.

She had always known that Zuo Yun opened a restaurant in Kyoto, but business had always been bad and he was losing money every month, so he had to take money from the General's Mansion to subsidize it.

But since the restaurant was renamed Shuidi Lao and focused on hotpot, it quickly became famous in Kyoto and the restaurant business became booming.

She originally thought that this was Zuo Yun's idea, but she didn't expect that Gu Chan was in partnership with him.

At this moment, her admiration for Gu Chan reached a new level!

Gu Chan said calmly, "Your eldest brother's previous restaurant not only had a bad name, but also had bad service and the dishes were too light, which did not suit the tastes of Kyoto people. But since it changed to selling hot pot and improved the service quality, the business is much better than before. This way, our Chan Palace has an extra income."

"Husband, I think you are so amazing! Not only are you capable, but you are also good at making money. I love you so much." Zuo Xin said coquettishly while hugging Gu Chan with her arms.

Gu Chan smiled awkwardly and became a little anxious.

As a woman, she knew very well what it meant when a woman acted coquettishly towards a man in this way.

And most importantly, Zuo Xin had been married for several days, and they had never slept together! She must be thinking about that now!

Sure enough, Gu Chan guessed correctly.

Zuo Xin threw half of her body into her arms, and said in a very docile manner, "Husband, don't sleep in the study tonight. The weather is getting colder and colder. What if you catch a cold sleeping alone? You are the backbone of our family, you can't get sick!"

"puff!"

The next second, Gu Chan immediately controlled the spiritual energy in her body and forced herself to spit out blood.

Zuo Xin was so frightened that she quickly turned over and said, "Husband, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, you don't have to worry. It's just that the internal injuries that Prince Qin inflicted on me with his spiritual pressure have not yet healed." Gu Chan said in pretended pain.

"Husband, why didn't you tell me earlier! I thought your injury had healed long ago!" Zuo Xin said in a crying voice.

As she said this, she quickly stretched out her pair of tender white hands and held Gu Chan's face tightly, showing both love and concern for her.

Gu Chan could see that Zuo Xin was really good to her, but unfortunately, she was not a man, so even if he wanted to pamper her, he couldn't!

With no other options, she could only say, "Madam, I'd better sleep in the study and recuperate during this period. I'll come to accompany you when I'm well. After all, the injuries Princess Thirteen gave me haven't healed yet, and I can't completely control the evil in my body. If we get too close and you're affected by the evil in my body, it won't be good for you."

"Okay! I understand. My husband, you should take good care of yourself. We'll talk about everything after you recover." Zuo Xin said obediently.

She is now very dependent on Gu Chan, and is naturally afraid that anything might happen to Gu Chan.

Gu Chan reached out and stroked her delicate face and said, "Then I'll go back to recuperate. You should rest early after you're done. Don't tire yourself out."

"Then you should go and take a rest! I'll go to the pharmacy tomorrow to get some tonic, and boil it to nourish you." Zuo Xin said with concern.

"Food supplements are worse than medicine. You might as well make some chicken soup for me." Gu Chan reminded.

Zuo Xin nodded affirmatively.

Gu Chan didn't dare to stay any longer, so she quickly got up, said goodbye, and went to the study to take a nap.

Zuo Xin stayed in the lobby to continue doing the accounting until all the accounts in the mansion were settled. Then she dragged her tired body back to her room alone to rest.

Early the next morning.

When Gu Chan was still sleeping in the study, Zuo Yun broke into Prince Chan's mansion and cursed.

"Gu Chan, you little bastard, get out of here right now."

"Brother, are you sick? Why are you coming here to scold me so early in the morning?" Zuo Xin quickly ran out from the lobby, glaring at Zuo Yun and cursing.

"It's none of your business. I'm looking for Gu Chan." Zuo Yun angrily reached out and pushed Zuo Xin away, then ran straight to the backyard.

Seeing this, Zuo Xin was so scared that he quickly ran to the south wing to find Yuan Jie.

After a while, the two ran to the study and stopped Zuo Yun who was about to break into the study.

Yuan Jie said with a stiff face, "What's wrong with you? You came over here so early in the morning and started scolding me. What? Do you want to kill someone?"

"You know shit, Gu Chan, that little bastard, actually helped Princess Thirteen to drug me last night and let her torment me the whole night. I couldn't stand it anymore." Zuo Yun cursed angrily.

"Ah?" Zuo Xin and Yuan Jie were stunned and exclaimed in surprise.

The two couldn't believe that Gu Chan had done such a thing.

At this time, the door of the study room opened from the inside, and Gu Chan came out neatly dressed. She stared at Zuo Yun and said with a sly smile, "Why, after all the trouble last night, you're still angry? Why are you still so angry this morning?"

"You despicable little bastard, how did I provoke you? Are you going to help her deal with me?" Zuo Yun pointed at Gu Chan's nose and cursed.

Gu Chan sneered and said, "You are the current emperor's consort. The Thirteenth Princess has been married to you for many days, but you have not slept with her. If this matter gets out, won't you be criticized by all the civil and military officials in the court? Then not only you, but also your father and the entire general's mansion, as well as your original wife Yuan Jie, will be implicated. Do you want so many people to suffer because of your selfishness?"

"This...I..." Zuo Yun was choked speechless on the spot.

After hearing this, Zuo Xin and Yuan Jie nodded in relief, understanding Gu Chan's good intentions.
