Shocked! The salty concubine was spoiled by the cold prince

Chapter 122 Gu Sidao Raised a Good Daughter

"Auntie, I have already found out that the jade pendant is indeed Miss Gu's personal belonging."

Yue Yan spoke with a smile before she even entered the door.

She knew that with the jade pendant, Miss Gu could no longer deny it.

Gu Jiaorong nodded with a calm expression, not seeming surprised.

"It's not in vain that I said those two extra words to her."

Although Gu Jiaorong and Gu Fuying were not close friends, she felt that Gu Fuying was not such a scheming person compared to Xu Qingwan and others.

No matter how good a person is at disguising himself, there will always be flaws.

What's more, the fact that Gu Fuying dared to go to Prince Su's Mansion alone several times shows that she is not very cunning.

Xu Qingwan had only sent her trusted maid to deliver the invitation to her, but she didn't dare to invite her to a restaurant for a chat. One reason was to avoid suspicion, and the other was that she was probably worried that she would never come back.

I'm afraid everyone knows now that Gu Fuying goes in and out of Prince Su's mansion.

Even if Gu Sidao didn't want to take sides, he couldn't deny his connection with Prince Su's Mansion.

"Gu Sidao raised a good daughter."

Gu Jiaorong curled her lips and chuckled.

"Gu Fuying was raised at the border for several years, living with her mother. Although she was loved by her parents since childhood, she couldn't compare to the noble ladies in the capital in terms of scheming and tactics. Moreover, Gu Sidao had no intention of having her enter the palace or marry into a wealthy family. Therefore, even if she behaved like a rich lady, she would still be no match for them."

Pei Xu walked to Gu Jiaorong and held her in his arms. His movements were gentle, and his hot palm landed on her lower abdomen.

He habitually touched the child, even if the child did not respond.

"If our child is born, whether it's a boy or a girl, we can't let him grow up to look like her. He won't be smart or he will suffer in the future."

Pei Xu now also has the worries of being a father. Although the matter of Gu Fuying was not a big deal, she was the only one who was hurt.

Even though the prince was suspected by the emperor, he was still the prince who was high above everyone else. He could even argue that Gu Fuying was infatuated with him, but he had no such intention.

"Your Highness is right. Our children cannot suffer such a loss."

Gu Jiaorong agreed with him very much. Being in love is not a good idea!

"But it's too early to talk about this now. Let's talk about Gu Fuying. She has come to the palace twice already. I'm afraid some people in the court already think that Gu Sidao and the prince have a close relationship."

Her eyebrows were curved, revealing cunningness, and it was obvious that she had guessed the result long ago.

Pei Xu raised his hand and scratched her nose, then nodded with a smile.

"Rong'er made a good move. Although Gu Sidao used the excuse of coming to thank us for the Qiqiao Feast, in the eyes of others, our two families have become closer, no matter what the reason is."

Such a result was naturally beneficial to him, but it also made him more suspicious of the emperor.

If it were in the past, this would have been a risky move for Pei Xu.

But now Pei Xu has a firearms battalion, and if he has Gu Sidao's help, the road ahead will definitely be smoother.

“People only want to see what they want to see, not what is actually happening.”

Gu Jiaorong smiled slightly. She was also like this as she was in a field of huge interests.

"That makes sense."

Pei Xu nodded in agreement, but his hands were not honest, and they moved from her lower abdomen to her neck.

"But this is just the beginning. From this moment on, they will truly make a choice and choose who they want to support."

The Crown Prince and the Third Prince are naturally the best choices, but the Fifth Prince, who lives a secluded life, is already seventeen years old.

Gu Jiaorong understood what he said, but did not respond. Instead, she looked up and kissed the corner of his lips.

She didn't want to continue this topic.

When facing Pei Xu, she still needs to keep some little secrets.

Although she never said it, Pei Xu knew all her little habits, including this moment when she used her mouth to block out the rest of her words.

If he wants to ask, he can naturally continue asking.

After all, as long as he wanted, Gu Jiaorong couldn't stop him.

But he didn't do that. At this moment, he chose to cooperate.

Pei Xu closed his eyes, hiding the ups and downs of emotions in them.

Even though he didn't know whether his choice was right or wrong, he didn't want to delve into it at this moment.

He followed his inner choice and chased the red before his eyes.

That was the tenderness in his dreams, and also the sweetness before his eyes. They had been intimate and slept together countless times.

Whenever he thought of this, his heart began to stir, as if a surging undercurrent was coming.

And now, he found a moment of inner peace because of this touch of red.

But this kind of comfort could not last forever. Gu Jiaorong lay on top of him, breathing softly, her cheeks slightly flushed, making her look particularly cute.

Pei Xu's big palm fell on her back, soothing her gently.

He didn't say anything, and Gu Jiaorong didn't want to speak at this moment. The two of them just hugged each other quietly, and it didn't feel awkward or boring.

As the sky darkened, the room became dim.

Finally, this ambiguous and weird atmosphere was broken.

"Prince, Auntie, do you want to set the table?"

Shaoyao stood far away, lowered her head, and asked respectfully.

"Put the food on the table."

Pei Xu responded calmly that some things were not urgent and could be discussed while eating.

He came back early today, firstly because he knew about the relationship between Gu Jiaorong and Gu Fuying, and secondly because he wanted to see what her next plans were.

But Gu Jiaorong blocked his mouth and stopped him from speaking any further.

Pei Xu looked at the person in his arms with a serious look. She was lying on him obediently as before, and their blood was still in her belly.

He didn't believe that Gu Jiaorong still had no feelings for him.

However, Gu Jiaorong and Gu Fuying have too close a relationship, which has both advantages and disadvantages. He is not afraid of Gu Jiaorong's power, but he is afraid that she will go too far and even he will not be able to protect her.

The situation is unpredictable. Looking at the entire court, whether in ancient times or today, it is very rare for women who wield power to have a good ending.

Even if Gu Jiaorong had the talent of Empress Lu, he still failed to establish the Liu Han Dynasty.

Sitting at the dinner table, Pei Xu was still preoccupied, which was a little unlike him.

Gu Jiaorong tilted her head and looked at Pei Xu in confusion.

"My Lord, is there anything on your mind?"

Gu Jiaorong never wastes her time on random guesses. After all, she and Pei Xu get along well now, and she can ask many questions directly.

Besides, her energy had been exhausted from socializing with Gu Fuying today.

"Nothing important, I was just wondering how to deal with those old guys when I go to court tomorrow."

Pei Xu shook his head and put some food in her bowl.

"Although Gu Sidao denies our close relationship, the rumor has already spread. I'm sure the Crown Prince's followers are also very concerned. After all, Gu Sidao was someone he had tried so hard to win over. Even today, he still hopes to dispel General Gu's dissatisfaction."

Unfortunately, his father-in-law was no longer satisfied with him.

Even if he did not cooperate with Pei Xu, Gu Sidao would not allow his daughter and the prince to have any more disputes.
