Dongming Ziyu didn't expect Marquis Nan'an to ask this question, and was afraid that Gu Ran wouldn't answer well, but in this case, it was not convenient to give him a hint.

Nan Anhou narrowed his eyes and stared at Gu Ran sharply.

Gu Ran felt the invisible oppression, his little heart was pounding, he stopped crying, and solemnly said: "I don't say anything about my parents' faults. I know that I am unfilial and disobedient to my parents. But I want to be a good person. I want to be a good person."

Is it wrong to practice martial arts and study in order to have a suitable marriage?

I want to leave that home temporarily, stay in the capital, work hard to learn martial arts, and strive for a good future for myself. My future lies in the vast world outside, not competing with my stepbrother for favor at home, let alone fighting with my stepmother in the backyard."

He put the words Shangguan Ruoli had warned him back then into his own words and said them in his own words. He couldn't help but straighten his back, his eyes were firm and full of fierceness.

Bai Shi flattered him and coddled him into a domineering temperament, which was quite good.

The Marquis of Nan'an showed a satisfied look and said: "Then you can stay in the Marquis of Nan'an's Mansion for the time being. You usually go to the Mansion to study. If your behavior is different from what you said, I will send you back to Fengcheng!"

Gu Ran was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

The Marquis of Nan'an called him up and said, "Your father will send you a letter to explain."

Dongming Ziyu also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It would be best if Marquis Nan'an could come forward to resolve the matter.

In this way, Gu Ran settled in Nan'an Houfu and went to find Wulang as soon as he took a break. Except that the two of them no longer attended the same school, they were almost the same as when they were in Fengcheng. The difference was that Zhong Rui also went there every holiday.

Rongchuan also goes there often.

After Gu Fujun received the letter, he sent over his capable bodyguards and servants, as well as gifts and living expenses. Gu Ran occupied a small courtyard in Nan'an Marquis, and his servants didn't need the living expenses of Nan'an Marquis.

However, Gu Ran is different from Zhong Rui. Although he is also dependent on others, he is still lively and arrogant. He often fights and does naughty things. He is punished by his husband every few days.

On this day, Xiu Mu came to see Wu Lang again. He saw Wu Lang and Zhong Rui eating apples. He picked one up and wanted to nibble on it, but immediately put the apple down with a hiss.

Zhong Rui looked at his hand and asked, "Did you get slapped on the palm again?"

Wulang also stared at his hands, with a complicated expression on his face. He was gloating about his misfortune, but he was still pretending to be sympathetic.

After a while, I brought ointment to wipe his palms, which were swollen. "Can't you be more honest?"

Zhong Rui also said: "You should be cautious when living under someone else's roof, but if you still find fault with everything like this, aren't you looking for a fight?"

Gu Ran disagreed, "Between men, sometimes you have to rely on your fists to solve problems. If you want to bully me, hit me once and you will be honest. If you don't succeed, hit me twice until I subdue you!"

Don't think you're a dwarf just because you're living under someone else's roof. If you don't have a master here, you have a place to keep a master. It's fine to be low-key, but you can't be bullied! If you can get along well in this kind of environment, you will be able to do things more easily in the future.

Life has been like this, accept it well and regard it as a training. Things are like this. If you think at the best, you will see the benefits, and if you think at the worst, you will see all kinds of misfortune."

Zhong Rui lowered his head: "I'm different from you. You have parents, your father gives you money, and you can't spend the money of Nan'an Marquis. If you can't survive, the worst case scenario is to go home, and I... don't have a home anymore.

nothing left."

After saying that, he sighed and felt disappointed.

Gu Ran thought about it and said: "That's the same thing. As the saying goes, the hands of those who take advantage of others are short, and the mouth of those who eat others is short of mouth. You are indeed more embarrassed than me."

Wulang closed the ointment box and said: "My parents said that we are young now. As long as we are not hungry, we should not think too much and learn our skills hard. Once a person has great skills, everything else will not matter!"

Gu Ran and Zhong Rui both nodded, chewing apples with one hand and opening the book with the other.

Shangguan Ruoli stood outside the door holding snacks, showing a pleased smile, pushed the door in, put down the snacks, and came out without disturbing their study.

Ding Xiang came back from outside holding a red post with gold foil, "Fourth Lady, this is the post sent by Prince Shun."

Shangguan Ruoli took the post and opened it. It was Lin Jiahui's post asking her to enjoy plum blossoms. I really don't understand. Why do you have to contact her when you obviously have no good intentions?

Ding Xiang said: "The people from Prince Shun's Mansion are still waiting for your reply at the door."

Shangguan Ruoli said: "Just say that I am not feeling well and cannot go to the appointment."

Then, he took the silver and went to the embroidery workshop to get the winter clothes made for Ling Yue and Wu Lang. The two children have grown taller, and last year's winter clothes were shorter, and the appearance of the capital was different from that of Fengcheng.

When I came out of the embroidery workshop, I saw King Shun riding a horse and stopping at the door.

Shangguan Ruoli was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said, "A common woman pays homage to His Royal Highness Prince Shun!"

"No courtesy!" King Shun hesitated for a moment, got off his horse, walked up to her, and only stared into her eyes.

These eyebrows, these eyes, this nose and mouth...

It all showed that he was Li'er. But she didn't remember him, and he could never enter her life again.

After a long while, he said: "You... have suffered a lot in these years."

Shangguan Ruoli smiled slightly and said: "Back to the prince, the women of the common people have not suffered much, and their lives are very enjoyable."

King Shun lowered his eyes and said softly: "That's good."

Shangguan Ruo was extremely uncomfortable with leaving, and when he saw that he would not give way, he said: "Your Majesty, if nothing happens, can the women leave? The children are still waiting for me to go back and cook."

King Shun stepped out of the way and watched her walk away smoothly, blending into the crowd for a moment. As he watched, he felt as if he was seeing an old friend from his previous life.

The fate is over, but I can't forget it.

She doesn't remember herself. The past can never come back.

The cold wind suddenly picked up and was biting to the bone.

He stood there, the wall behind him was deserted and deserted.

Goodbye, bygone days.

He got on his horse and walked forward. The people and pedestrians he saw were all empty and ethereal, somewhat unreal.

Lin Jiahui's face darkened after hearing the servant's report. Well, it was a private meeting! It's so shameless!

Then he smiled again. Tomorrow is the day when he goes to the palace to pay his respects. Then, he will meet the Crown Princess, right? The Crown Princess must be very grateful to the benefactor who saved her stepson.
