Chapter 9: Entrust

  Chapter 9 Entrustment

  The man who came here did not tie up his hair high like other men, and the long black hair was draped over his shoulders freely. It is so casual that it does not look sloppy, but it makes people feel a little uninhibited.

   "Shou... Shoufu-sama!" Someone couldn't help exclaiming.

  When Ruan Youqing saw the appearance of the visitor, he couldn't help but feel a little complicated and sour.

  Gu Changan, the chief assistant of the Ning Kingdom, is an acquaintance from the previous life...

   Originally, the two of them should have nothing to do with each other, but Li Yi planned to kill him.

  The Lord Shoufu, who turned his hands into clouds and rain on the court hall, capsized in the gutter and died tragically in the desert.

  Although she didn't design it, but...

   When Li Yi framed Gu Changan, she knew about it. Because she was dazzled by emotion, she did not stop when she learned of Li Yi's plot. Therefore, the other party's death... is more or less indirectly related to him.

  Because of this reason, when Ruan Youqing went to see Gu Changan again, there was a hint of guilt in his eyes.

   In this life, for Li Yi and Rong Yan, she came for revenge. As for Gu Changan...

  Let her atone slowly...

   "Miss Ruan?"

  Gu Changan also walked up to Ruan Youqing at some point, and was looking at Ruan Youqing with a smile on his eyes.

  Seeing this, the people on the side unconsciously moved back a few steps.

  Because Shoufu-sama is smiling, but everyone knows...

  How cruel and ruthless he is against his enemies...

  So...it's better not to provoke easily...

  Even Prince Li Yi, when he saw Gu Changan, put away his feelings about Ruan Youqing just now, and greeted him respectfully.

  Gu Changan just cast a sideways glance at Li Yi, and then seemed to be a little careless: "I heard that Master Taifu gave His Highness homework yesterday?"

  Li Yi froze, and replied with some reluctance: "Thank you, Mr. Shoufu, for your concern. The Taifu did leave a rather troublesome homework."

  For some reason, Li Yi felt that Mr. Shoufu was a little different today.

  In the past, he never chatted so much with himself!

Sure enough, as soon as Li Yi finished speaking, Gu Chang'an stopped his smile and looked serious: "In this case, please concentrate on your homework. Your Highness should come here less often for this kind of poetic and picturesque leisure. Otherwise, the future of this country will Do you have to rely on poems and songs to guard it?"

  The corners of Li Yi's eyes twitched, and he lowered his head to hide the hostility on his face: "Father is in good health, this country and society will naturally prosper in the hands of Father."

Gu Changan glanced at him lightly, and then smiled lightly: "Since the prince thinks so, then turn around, I must report the truth to the emperor, the prince's ardent hopes for him. After all, the emperor just told the minister to persuade the prince more a few days ago. Your Highness and the other princes should be prepared for danger in times of peace. Since His Royal Highness is so open-minded..."

   "The crown prince thinks that what Lord Shoufu said is quite reasonable." Li Yi smiled, then turned around...

   Actually left.

  Ruan Youqing looked at the scene in front of him, and his mood relaxed for no reason.

  "Master Shoufu, the little girl read a sentence in a book a few days ago, and I don't understand it..." Seeing the prince leave, Rong Yan walked over with a smile like a flower, wanting to talk to Gu Chang'an.

   As a result, Gu Changan looked down at the smiling bright woman, hooked the corners of her mouth, and smiled back: "Men and women are different, this lady should pay more attention, don't talk to men casually."

  The bright smile on Rong Yan's face immediately collapsed.

  Until Liu Rou'er pulled the dazed Rong Yan away, the others also began to slowly move away from Gu Changan in fear.

  Ruan Youqing really found it interesting, and couldn't help covering her mouth and letting out a chuckle.

   This laughter was naturally heard by Gu Changan.

   "Miss Ruan is in a good mood?" Gu Changan said with a smile.

   Ruan Youqing, who thought the other party hadn't heard, raised his head unexpectedly, and saw his own dazed look in the other party's dark eyes.

  Ruan Youqing blushed instantly.

  Seeing that the interested little fox was shy for the first time, Gu Changan suddenly approached her and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Miss Ruan, don't worry about anything. I have entrusted General Ruan."

   Obtained the entrustment of the grandfather?

  Shoufu-sama and grandfather...is there any deep relationship?

  Why does she have no memory at all...even she doesn't remember any connection between them in the previous life...

  Ruan Youqing frowned slightly, feeling as if she had missed something very important.

  Some memories flashed dimly in Ruan Youqing's mind, but it was so fast that people couldn't catch any clues.

  His head felt like being pricked by a needle, and Ruan Youqing's body suddenly went limp.

   Then fell into a very firm and powerful embrace.

  Gu Changan saw that the girl was unstable and seemed about to fall, so without thinking, she subconsciously reached out and hugged her.

   Fortunately, there are hardly any people around them now.

Apart from…

  Princess Puyang Li Ange...

Ok…

  At this moment, Li Ange was covering his eyes, but he couldn't help but secretly looked at Ruan Youqing's direction with his fingers between his fingers curiously.

  Why is she so...excited when she sees other people so ambiguous?

   Li Ange was a little annoyed, and felt that his reaction was a bit dirty.

   Ruan Youqing, who was surrounded by the breath of a strange man, was a little panicked.

  The body preceded the consciousness, Ruan Youqing struggled out of the opponent's arms without even thinking about it, Fan'er, who had been stunned by the side, immediately reacted, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to embrace Ruan Youqing.

  The scent of orchids lingering around the tip of the nose was already inseparable, but with the departure of the girl, the alluring light fragrance finally dissipated.

   Gu Changan raised his eyebrows, he suddenly realized something.

  When the girl broke free from him just now, her strength was not like that of a person who had been suffering from a long illness.

   After Ruan Youqing took a steady breath, she looked up and saw Gu Changan staring at her with some interest.

   Pursing his lips, Ruan Youqing took out the handkerchief in his arms, coughed a few times before opening his mouth weakly: "Thank you, my lord..."

  "Miss Ruan, you're welcome." Gu Chang'an just smiled without revealing anything.

  …

   After Gu Changan left, Ruan Youqing breathed a sigh of relief.

   "Are you... all right?" Li Ange approached now, and seeing Ruan Youqing's pale face, he couldn't help asking.

  After asking, she felt a little regretful.

   "My princess... I'm not worried about you! Don't think too much about it!" Li Ange continued blushing.

  How could Ruan Youqing not know how duplicity this person in front of him is, he smiled and replied: "Thank you, princess, for understanding that Youqing can't fight."

  Li Ange waved his hands nonchalantly, and raised his chin slightly: "I can't let others say that I bully you as a weak girl. The queen mother will come soon, you...do you want to..."

   "Youqing thanked the princess for her kindness, but Youqing is not feeling well and wants to find a quiet place to rest first" Ruan Youqing refused before she could finish speaking.

  If possible, she...does not want to have too much involvement with Li Ange.

  Those right and wrong in the past, although she would not be angry with the other party, but there was still a thorn in her heart, which made her directly decline Li Ange's invitation.

  Perhaps it was because Ruan Youqing's complexion was really not good-looking, but Li Ange who was rejected didn't say anything more, turned around and left after humming.

  As soon as the other party left, Ruan Youqing heard someone not far away say:

  「The empress is here!」
