It was said that being close to a ruler was like being close to a tiger, especially in the treacherous imperial court of the State of Yan. Lady Nan felt somewhat worried.
Old Master Meng seemed knowledgeable, so she asked him, "Is Lord Yanshan easy to get along with?"
If he had a bad temper, it might be better to avoid this job.
"Lord Yanshan isn't much of an issue." Old Master Meng said, glancing at Gu Jiao, "You didn't make the Little County Princess cry, did you?"
Gu Jiao replied seriously, "No, why would I make her cry?"
Old Master Meng nodded, "That's good. The Emperor is extremely fond of this Little County Princess. Those who made her cry in the past were all executed by the Emperor!"
Gu Jiao: "..."
The next morning, Gu Jiao practiced with her red-tasseled spear as usual. Perhaps it was the sighting of Gu Chengfeng that made her think of the whip she had neglected for many days, so she practiced with it for a while too.
After that, Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun headed to the academy.
As soon as they arrived at the academy gate, a luxurious carriage blocked their path.
A young man in luxurious clothes stepped out of the carriage, surprisingly, it was Han Che.
Han Che glanced at Gu Jiao with a half-smile, then turned to open the curtain and let another elegantly dressed man alight from the carriage.
Gu Jiao recognized him.
It was Ming Junwang, who had previously come to the academy to find Mu Qingchen.
This Ming Junwang was quite sociable, maintaining close relationships with the young masters of prominent families, regardless of any disputes they might have among themselves. frёeωebɳovel.com
Gu Jiao assumed he was here to see Mu Qingchen again, so she turned and intended to bypass the carriage to enter the academy.
Unexpectedly, Han Che called out to her, “Hey, Xiao Liulang! Stop right there!”
Gu Jiao did not stop.
Han Che sucked in a cold breath.
The imperial guard beside Ming Junwang quickly stepped forward, blocking Gu Jiao's path.
Gu Jiao impatiently furrowed her brow.
"You go ahead." She said to Gu Xiaoshun.
Gu Xiaoshun initially wanted to stay, but then something crossed his mind, and his eyes flashed, "Alright, I'll go first!"
The imperial guard did not stop Gu Xiaoshun.
Gu Jiao turned around to face the two men, "What do you want?"
Her rebellious and arrogant attitude made Ming Junwang frown slightly.
Han Che, however, was quite pleased with this outcome; he wanted Xiao Liulang to provoke Ming Junwang.
Ming Junwang seemed unwilling to reveal his identity. He quickly suppressed his displeasure and spoke kindly to Gu Jiao, "I am a friend of Mu Qingchen. I visited your academy last time."
"So?" Gu Jiao looked at him indifferently, almost openly questioning what it had to do with her.
As an imperial family's legitimate grandson, Ming Junwang had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth and had never been treated with such disregard before.
But considering that the other party didn't know his identity, Ming Junwang felt relieved again.
This was a slight to Han Che, not to himself.
With this thought, Ming Junwang smiled gently once more, "I didn't mean anything else. You are Qingchen's classmate, and I am Qingchen's friend. I just wanted to get to know you."
Han Che curled his mouth at this. Didn’t he tell Ming Junwang that Xiao Liulang was a person of lower state? Why be unnecessarily polite to him?
Ming Junwang's politeness wasn't for Xiao Liulang; it was for Mu Qingchen.
In Shengdu's top ten aristocratic families, Mu Qingchen held sway over three. Gaining his favor meant potentially gaining the Su Family, the Mu Family, and the Wang Family simultaneously.
“Not interested.” Gu Jiao said.
Han Che’s tone turned cold as he rebuked, "Hey! Do you know who you're talking to? Don't be ungrateful! If someone offers you a toast, take it; if they offer you a drink, drink it!"
"Ah, Young Master Han, please don't be angry. Let's talk civilly." Since Han Che was playing the bad cop, Ming Junwang thought he might as well play the good cop.
He smiled and said to Gu Jiao, "I had something come up last time during the polo match and couldn't witness it firsthand, which I deeply regret. I've heard you have a very talented horse. I wonder if I could have the opportunity to see it?"
“No.” Gu Jiao refused flatly.
Ming Junwang almost choked on his own blood!
Not revealing his identity wasn't going to work, was it?
Han Che added fuel to the fire, and said tauntingly, "Xiao Liulang, don't think my companion here just wants to see your horse; he might as well want it, and you still have to graciously offer it to him, do you get it?"
Gu Jiao looked calmly at both of them, saying, "So, you're here to steal my horse?"
Ming Junwang frowned.
He had only wanted to see it, but now he indeed wanted to take it.
Because no one had ever dared defy him like this.
This person from a lower country really lacked insight. Even if he didn’t reveal his identity, wasn’t his imperial demeanor enough to intimidate him?
Inside the academy gate, students who caught sight of this scene gasped in disbelief.
That person was the Crown Prince’s legitimate son. He had become the eldest imperial grandson since the initial Crown Princess was deposed.
If he wanted to take Liulang’s horse, even if Gu Xiaoshun called Young Master Qingchen over, there was no way to stop it!
"What's going on? Why are you all crowded here? Aren't you supposed to be in class?" Dean Cen walked over and asked.
The students turned around, and one of them whispered, “Dean, Ming Junwang is here. He wants to take Liulang’s horse king!”
“What?” Dean Cen's expression changed.
He looked out towards the gate and immediately spotted Ming Junwang and Han Che facing Gu Jiao.
Ming Junwang didn't watch the match yesterday, so how did he know about Liulang's horse?
Most likely, this boy Han Che wanted Liulang's horse but didn’t want to act himself. After all, he wouldn't fare well against Mu Qingchen. So he brought Ming Junwang here.
Ming Junwang usually got whatever he wanted; there was simply nothing he couldn't get.
It was over. Liulang's horse couldn't be protected.
"How is it stealing?" Ming Junwang smiled faintly.
However, despite his words denying theft, the embroidered-uniform guards beside him had already placed their hands on their sword hilts.
Just as Ming Junwang was about to command them to draw their swords, a carriage swiftly arrived and stopped beside Gu Jiao and her group.
The curtains of the carriage were lifted, and a delicately beautiful little girl jumped out.
"What are you doing?" She asked in a childish voice.
Ming Junwang was greatly surprised.
The Little County Princess, not yet five years old, jumped off the carriage and came before Ming Junwang. She raised her tender face and asked sternly, "Why aren’t you paying respect?"
How embarrassing, facing such a situation, but he had to comply.
Ming Junwang furrowed his brows, bowed slightly, and reluctantly greeted, "Little Aunt."
The Little County Princess looked at him, then at Gu Jiao, "What were you just doing?"
Knowing that the little one loved to complain in front of the Emperor, Ming Junwang signaled to his guards, who discreetly withdrew their hands from their sword hilts.
Ming Junwang smiled, "Nothing, I was just here to make a new friend."
"Really?" The Little County Princess asked Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao crossed her arms, "No, he was trying to steal my horse."
Ming Junwang: "..."
The Little County Princess's face fell immediately, "Pick me up."
Her servant girl instantly lifted the expressionless Little County Princess.
The Little County Princess extended her chubby hand and smacked Ming Junwang on the forehead, saying fiercely, "You brat! How dare you bully your auntie’s teacher!"

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:
Description:
In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.
When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.
The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.
From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.
***
Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.
After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"
Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"
Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”
Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
