Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 531: The Deep Brotherly Love Between Mr. Gu and An Ning

Shen Wantang rubbed his forehead helplessly: "Say less!"

She didn't know what her second brother was going to do. If she knew, she probably wouldn't say such things.

Gu Qianning's mood strangely improved. She finally had the heart to walk around Shen Wantang's room. Seeing a thick stack of medical books on her desk, she suddenly became interested: "Atang, do you have any quick medical skills?"

Shen Wantang shook his head in amusement: "How can medical skills be learned quickly? What's wrong, do you want to learn?"

"Yes, I want to learn something to help me. Otherwise, what if I go to Jiangnan and get sick and you don't have me to look after me?"

"If I'm not there, there are still doctors! I heard that the doctors in Jiangnan have their own set of treatment methods, which are quite powerful!"

"No, I can't trust anyone. I'm unfamiliar with the place, and I wouldn't know if someone wanted to harm me. Teach me some medical skills so I can protect myself!"

Shen Wantang really agreed with her spirit of preparing for a rainy day. It is indeed not a bad thing for a daughter to learn some medical skills.

Since she was free anyway, she sat down at the desk and explained the basic medical principles to Gu Qianning.

Although there is no shortcut or quick success in learning medicine, Shen Wantang's purpose in teaching Gu Qianning was not to make her a doctor, but to help her protect herself, so she only talked about things that were useful to Gu Qianning, and the examples she used were all commonly encountered in daily life.

Because it was close to life and very practical, Gu Qianning listened very carefully and was even a little fascinated.

Before I knew it, it had darkened.

Madam Chai walked in with a smile: "Princess, the Second Young Master Gu is here and is waiting in the flower hall. He said he wants to take Miss Gu home!"

As soon as Gu Qianning heard this, she knew that her second brother had other intentions. How could he be so kind to take her home? Before she met Shen Wantang, no matter where she went, whether it was day or night, he never asked.

It was obvious that he was using her as a cover to meet Shen Wantang.

Gu Qianning racked her brains, thinking about how to expose her second brother's conspiracy in person without making him completely embarrassed and incurring his revenge.

Shen Wantang had already stood up: "It's true that we're a little late. It's time for Ning to go home."

Gu Qianning stood up with her and went to the flower hall in front together.

In the flower hall, Gu Qianhan was sitting there drinking tea.

As soon as Shen Wantang saw him, she said in a polite tone: "I heard from Madam Chai that the second young master Gu came to take An Ning home. It's all my fault. I forgot the time and talked to her for a long time."

Gu Qianhan stood up and walked to Shen Wantang: "Don't blame you, blame her. I didn't come here to take her home, I came to see you..."

Before he could finish his words, Shen Wantang interrupted him immediately: "Second Master Gu and An Ning have such a deep brother-sister relationship, it's really enviable!"

She had a smile on her face, but her eyes were full of warning.

Gu Qianhan looked at her sharp eyes and had to change his words: "Well, I came here specially to pick up An Ning. It's already dark, and it's not safe for her to go home alone. I have to protect her."

Shen Wantang continued to smile falsely: "Second Master, don't worry. Even if you don't come, I won't let An Ning go back alone. I will definitely ask the guards to escort her back."

Gu Qianning rolled her eyes at Gu Qianhan: "I really want to thank you, second brother. I'm still a little uncomfortable with how much you love me!"

Gu Qianhan seemed to be unable to hear the sarcasm between the two of them, and a smile appeared on his usually cold face: "The Crown Prince's Consort is considerate and thoughtful, and Ah Ning is well-behaved and sensible. Good, both are good!"

Shen Wantang felt that his words were awkward, as if she and Gu Qianning were both members of his family.

Gu Qianning didn’t think that Gu Qianhan was praising her. She had never heard him praise her before!

She hugged Shen Wantang's arm and said, "Second brother, please go back. I'm not going home. I'm going to sleep with An Ning tonight."

The smile on Gu Qianhan's face disappeared instantly: "No!"

Gu Qianning shook Shen Wantang's arm pitifully: "Atang, look at my second brother, he is mean to me again, I feel so sad, I feel wronged, I want to cry!"

Shen Wantang: "Why is the Second Young Master so mean to my sister? She didn't do anything wrong. She just wanted to stay at my place for one night. Can't you talk to her nicely? Look, you almost scared her to tears."

Gu Qianning: "That's right, second brother is too much! Second brother relies on the fact that he is a few years older than me to order me around. Those who know you say you are my brother, and those who don't think you are my father!"

Gu Qianhan: “…”

He just said two words, "No"...

He finally realized that Gu Qianning had found a backer this time and was instigating Shen Wantang to deal with him together.

His eyes were slightly cold: "Gu Qianning, come home with me. Your parents will never agree to you, a girl who has not yet married, living outside!"

Gu Qianning had a backer today, so of course she wasn't afraid of him. She said confidently, "Then go home and convince your father and mother to agree. If you can't even handle such a small matter, how can you be the head of the Gu family?"

Gu Qianhan looked at her indifferently: "You are so arrogant, I think you don't want to come back to the Gu family anymore."

Gu Qianning began to shake Shen Wantang's arm again: "Atang, look at him, threatening me, scaring me! How can he act like a brother like this? He won't even let me go home!"

Shen Wantang: "I will send someone to send a letter to Madam Gu and explain the situation to her. I believe she will be reasonable and will definitely agree to let you stay in the palace for one night. We don't need to trouble the Second Young Master. Second Young Master, please go back!"

Gu Qianhan: “…”

Gu Qianning had only been here for an afternoon, and Shen Wantang had already become like this. What would happen if she stayed here for a night?

But he looked at Shen Wantang and then at Gu Qianning. The two of them were leaning against each other tightly, as if anyone who tried to separate them would be a bad person.

He could only compromise: "Okay, just this once, and it won't happen again."

Gu Qianning's eyes lit up: "Really? You allow me to stay at Atang's place tonight? Will you help me convince my parents too?"

"Ah."

Gu Qianning couldn't help but cheer: "Wow! Second brother, you really love me, thank you, second brother! Second brother, you are a good person!"

She had originally just wanted to make things difficult for Gu Qianhan, because she knew very well that at this time, she would be getting married soon, and Shen Wantang was still in mourning. It was impossible for her to live in Prince Ning's Mansion, and her father and mother would never agree.

I didn’t expect Gu Qianhan to agree!

She hugged Shen Wantang happily: "Ah Tang, I can sleep with you tonight, I'm so happy!"

Shen Wantang smiled at her and turned to look at Gu Qianhan: "Second Young Master really loves his sister. He is such an admirable brother."

Gu Qianhan looked at her helplessly: "Okay, stop praising me, I'm going back, you guys can have fun."

Shen Wantang showed a sincere smile this time: "Second Young Master, take care."
