Chapter 425 - 425: Conqueror (2)



“Your Highness is really considerate.” Madam Wang changed her overly amiable face as if she was flipping through a book, her eyes shining.

Kang Wang had personally come to pick up their second branch family members from the Gu Mansion and bring them to their new house!

In this way, the second branch more or less regained some face.

At the thought of this, Madam Wang seemed to have taken some magical pill and perked up.

Granny Shi pointed at Chu You and Gu Yunrong outside the manor and added, “Second Madam, look, the three of us are really a match made in heaven with His Highness.”

Madam Wang’s gaze swept between Gu Yunrong and Chu You, and her mood improved again. As long as Rong’er could win Kang Wang over, her master still had a long future.

Hmph, there’s still a long way to go. Let’s see who’ll have the last laugh!

Madam Wang was about to continue bowing to Chu You when she saw a box carried by two old women out of the corner of her eye. Her expression changed as she questioned why they hadn’t locked the box properly.

The two old women put down the box in fear.

Chu You, who was outside the residence, didn’t notice Madam Wang and the others in the residence at all. He focused on Gu Yunrong, his eyes burning and bright. He comforted him gently, “Rong’er, that residence is a little small. You’ll have to suffer for a few days.”

“20 days left…”

Their wedding was in 20 days!

Gu Yunrong was a little embarrassed by his affectionate and focused gaze. However, she didn’t avoid his gaze and looked back at him with a smile.

“It’s just a place to stay,” Gu Yunrong said generously. Her slender fingers curled around a handkerchief in her hand. “You know that I’ve never been particular about these things.”

“Yes, you’ve always been like this.” The corners of Chu You’s lips curled up. He couldn’t help but think of the first time he met her in Yangzhou eight years ago.

His Rong’er was smart and courageous. Ordinary women couldn’t compare to her.

Even if the city was broken, she was still fearless in the face of danger. Even if she slept in the wilderness, she could still be calm.

She was clearly so young at that time and was just a young girl raised in the depths of her room, but she was righteous, smart, and calm. When he was chased by the soldiers of the State of Yue, she saved his life.

His Rong’er was completely different from those pampered noble ladies in the capital. She was unique!

However, even if Rong’er didn’t care about this, he couldn’t ignore it. How could he wrong his sweetheart!

Chu You grabbed Gu Yunrong’s hand. His palm was warm as he said, “Rong’er, when you live in Prince Kang’s Mansion, you’ll definitely like it there. Prince Kang’s Mansion was bestowed to me by my father when he was alive. The courtyards, gardens, theaters… Every part of the residence is unique and creative. It can be said to be the top among all the princes’ mansions in the capital. You’ll definitely live comfortably there.”

“It’s a pity that the wedding date was set a little too quickly. Otherwise, I would have wanted to renovate the prince’s residence. But it’s fine. Rong’er, you’ll be the mistress of the prince’s residence in the future. You can renovate it to your liking.”

“I remember you saying that you like the roses in Prince Jing’s Manor. We can plant a garden of roses that are colorful…”

Hearing Chu You’s considerate words, Gu Yunrong’s frustrations of the past few days dissipated. Her bright eyes lit up again.

“You still remember.” The dimples on Gu Yunrong’s lips were filled with sweetness, and her heart soared.

Kang Wang was sincere with her. Even though Gu Jian had lost his title as the Marquis of Dingyuan, he didn’t care at all. He had always treated her the same and had never changed.

“I’ll remember everything you said,” Chu You said seriously as he stared into her eyes. He was also infected by her smile. It spread from his lips to the bottom of his eyes.

He was about to say something when he saw a double-horse canopy carriage driving over not far ahead.

He had only glanced at it casually, but when his gaze swept across the canopy of the carriage, he couldn’t help but be stunned.

An eagle-shaped mark was engraved on the carriage’s canopy.

Chu You recognized it at a glance. “This is… Imperial Duke Wei’s Mansion?”

He narrowed his eyes and stared at the emblem on the carriage. He watched as the carriage stopped outside the east corner door. A rough old woman jumped down from the shaft and knocked on the corner door.

Not long after, the covered carriage was led to the east corner by the gatekeeper of the Gu family.

Chu You raised his eyebrows slightly and guessed in his heart: Could it be that Imperial Duchess Wei is here?

Gu Yunrong immediately noticed Chu You’s thoughtful gaze and guessed what he was thinking. She said casually, “It might be Miss Wei Jiu. Miss Wei Jiu is on good terms with my second sister and often comes to the residence to play.”

Chu You raised his hand and pointed at the eagle-shaped mark behind the hood of the car. “That’s the emblem of Imperial Duke Wei’s Mansion.”

He patiently explained to Gu Yunrong that the Imperial Duke Wei’s Mansion had strict family rules. They were afraid that the younger generation would use the mansion’s name to bully others outside, so the carriages the younger generation used when they went out were usually ordinary carriages.

Under normal circumstances, only Imperial Duchess Wei and the Duchess would take such a family emblem carriage when they went out.

Gu Yunrong frowned slightly.

Even if Kang Wang didn’t say it directly, she knew very well that he suspected that Imperial Duke Wei had also sided with Eldest Prince Chu Yi.

Gu Yunrong clenched the handkerchief in his hand tightly, his eyes deep and dark.

Firstly, it was the British Duke, and then it was Imperial Duke Wei. Half of the four dukes had sided with the Eldest Prince. These founding nobles were all heartless. All of them had taken sides early on just to contribute to the dragon and continue the wealth of the Imperial Duke Wei’s Mansion?!

They didn’t care who the wise master was at all. They didn’t care who could lead the world to prosperity!

Gu Yunrong hid the handkerchief in her hand back into her sleeve pocket and said seriously, “Your Highness, wait for me here. I’ll go in and ask around.”

Let’s see who it is..
