He had an unconvinced and twisted smile on his face.

Lord Huai dared to speak to him like this? Lord Huai's mother was dead and he was disgraced. How could he speak with him like this on such an occasion? Very well!

Lord Yu and Lord Yan greeted him as they were walking up to the imperial tombs, but Lord Huai did something like this. Very well!

Gu Yunhe got so angry that he took a few steps forward.

Mrs. Gu grabbed hold of him.

She shook her head at Gu Yunhe, telling him not to be impulsive.

The door to enchantment appeared and the King was holding the occasion in the most magnificent manner, just for the Phoenix Girl to be born formally.

Everyone important was waiting here at the imperial tombs.

It was the most important day for Ruxue, so the Gu Family should not ruin this for her. Ruxue needed this ceremony.

She just wanted to humiliate Gu Chaoyan verbally, and did not dare to cause a commotion.

Yunhe might be pushed backwards at the moment, but that was all. Lord Huai and Gu Chaoyan would soon be under their feet, either today or tomorrow.

That was why she gripped her son.

Gu Yunhe was annoyed, but he had no way out. So he threw an angry glare at his mother.

Mrs. Gu had no other way out either.

Gu Zhenkang could not stand it any more. He was not as bold as Gu Yunhe, but he added. "Lord Huai, you can defend this kind of woman if you want to, but never regret your choice. She and my family are not related any more, so don't try to suck up to us later."

Hearing that, Mrs. Gu showed another proud look.

She was very satisfied as she looked at Gu Chaoyan.

Ms. Lin was never as good as she was.

Zhou Huaijin narrowed his eyes as he looked at Gu Zhenkang. He had a touch of viciousness flash across his face, but soon Zhou Huaijin replied with a cold tone. "Same to you, Officer Gu."

Soon he opened his arms to shield Gu Chaoyan, not wanting to spare another look at the Gu Family.

Within a short period of time… some noise arose at the imperial tombs.

Zhou Huaijin looked over and saw that it was the King, the Crown Prince Consort and the Crown Prince who arrived with Destiny Monk.

They were well-dressed, just like at the ceremony when the Crown Prince was crowned.

Everyone kneeled down.

Zhou Huaijin and Gu Chaoyan were on their knees too.

They walked at a slow pace, and then came to them, at the door to enchantment.

The King glanced over those people in front of him and smiled. "You can rise now."

"…"

"For the Saint Divine Land, it is a very important day. The Phoenix Girl is going to be born, and she is the Crown Prince Consort too. What a wonderful thing!"

"…"

"Wars have broken out at the Saint Divine Land, and the border has not been at peace. Civilians are all suffering, but the Phoenix Girl is going to bring about happiness! Everything should get better!" the King said excitedly.

Next to him was Gu Ruxue, who had her head raised as she looked down at Gu Chaoyan who was standing below her.
