Chapter 175 Are you and His Majesty already husband and wife?
After joking around with the audience in the live broadcast room for a while, Gu Lanzhi asked the system to upgrade and he went straight to sleep.
Gu Lanzhi was really tired after being tormented by the wolf Li Beichen these days. Even though he would sleep after each torment, he still felt very tired.
When Gu Lanzhi woke up, it was almost time for dinner.
After class, Gu Jingcheng heard that Gu Lanzhi had returned, so he ran to Gu Lanzhi's yard, but was told that Gu Lanzhi was sleeping. Gu Jingcheng curled his lips, finished his homework in Gu Lanzhi's study first, and waited for Gu Lanzhi to wake up.
We waited until it was almost time for dinner.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Hearing that Gu Lanzhi woke up, Gu Jingcheng came to Gu Lanzhi's room.
Gu Lanzhi looked at Gu Jingcheng puzzledly while putting on his clothes.
"Ah? You're alright? Why are you asking?"
Gu Jingcheng frowned and looked Gu Lanzhi up and down, "Then why did you sleep for so long?"
Hearing Gu Jingcheng's question, Gu Lanzhi looked at Gu Jingcheng with a guilty conscience and said cunningly, "Don't I usually sleep well?
I can sleep in the sun in the yard all afternoon!"
Gu Jingcheng did not believe Gu Lanzhi's explanation and continued to stare at Gu Lanzhi.
"Brother, you have been in the palace for several days. Are you and His Majesty already husband and wife?"
Gu Jingcheng is so smart. After so many days since Gu Lanzhi entered the palace, he can guess what will happen with his toes.
Gu Lanzhi had just put on his clothes and picked up the teacup to take a sip when he heard Gu Jingcheng's sharp question.
Gu Lanzhi got so nervous that the tea he drank went directly into his trachea, causing him to cough for a while.
When Gu Jingcheng saw Gu Lanzhi's reaction, his brows furrowed even deeper, but he still patted Gu Lanzhi on the back.
Gu Lanzhi coughed for a long time before he calmed down. He coughed so hard that tears came out and his eyes were red. He looked at Gu Jingcheng with a reproachful look.
Gu Jingcheng is not as easy to fool as Gu Shurui. Even though Gu Lanzhi glared at him, Gu Jingcheng still had no intention of letting Gu Lanzhi go.
"Brother, I know just by looking at your reaction."
Although this matter was difficult to talk about for the ancients, Gu Lanzhi didn't care. He just didn't want to teach the child bad things.
But since Gu Jingcheng had already seen through it, Gu Lanzhi no longer hid it from Gu Jingcheng.
Who made his younger brother so precocious and smart?
"You already know this, but you're still asking?" Gu Lanzhi looked at Gu Jingcheng jokingly.
After getting the exact answer, Gu Jingcheng subconsciously closed his eyes.
"Then what are your plans for entering the palace and becoming the queen?" Gu Jingcheng knew that he could not change anything, so he had to do his best to protect his brother.
Now that the two of them have already had physical contact, his brother must quickly become the queen to avoid being gossiped about by others.
Most importantly, Gu Jingcheng was afraid that the emperor would not acknowledge his decision.
If that's really the case, what will his brother do?
"Well... I haven't thought about it yet." Gu Lanzhi said indifferently.
Hearing this, Gu Jingcheng almost exploded!
"What? You haven't thought about it? Brother, are you crazy?" Gu Jingcheng's voice became sharp.
After all, he is only a ten-year-old kid and hasn't reached the voice change period yet. When he is anxious, his voice becomes shrill.
"I'm not crazy! I know what you're thinking, but I don't want to enter the palace and become queen so early.
Who is the queen? She is the face of Dongshun State. If I really became the queen, I would not be as free as I am now. "
Even though Li Beichen said that he would not restrain him or trap him in the harem, the queen is the queen, and there are some things the queen cannot do, after all, her status is different.
"But... Brother, don't you know what physical contact means? You really don't care at all?"
Gu Jingcheng has gotten a pretty good idea of his brother's character over this period of time. He believes that his brother is really capable of doing something that would not take physical intimacy seriously.
But Gu Jingcheng really couldn't accept it.
Seeing that Gu Jingcheng was really anxious, Gu Lanzhi quickly explained to Gu Jingcheng with a smile.
"Don't worry, I just won't be the queen in the next few months, and I still have some things I need to do before I become the queen.
You don't have to worry about me, I know what's going on, and the things you're worried about won't happen."
Gu Jingcheng understands Gu Lanzhi, and Gu Lanzhi also understands Gu Jingcheng. How could he not know what Gu Jingcheng is thinking?
Gu Jingcheng looked at Gu Lanzhi suspiciously, "Really?"
"Really, really, don't worry, once I finish my work, the imperial decree to crown you as queen will arrive.
There are people who are more anxious than you, so don't worry."
After hearing what Gu Lanzhi said, Gu Jingcheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he began to have some favorable feelings towards the emperor.
How could he not know who his brother was talking about when he said, "There are people who are more anxious than you"?
Gu Lanzhi restrained the smile on his face and looked at Gu Jingcheng seriously, "Cheng'er, I will enter the palace to be the queen, and the title of Marquis Dingguo will have to be inherited by you."
Gu Jingcheng was not surprised by this. He was so smart that he had already thought about these things. He just hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then... Fourth Brother."
"I will make it clear to him. Shu Rui is not fit to be the Marquis of Dingguo. With his brain, he will surely be plotted to death."
Gu Jingcheng nodded. He agreed with Gu Lanzhi's evaluation of Gu Shurui.
Gu Lanzhi looked at Gu Jingcheng with heartache. Such a young child had to shoulder everything for the Gu family. This really made Gu Lanzhi feel sorry for him.
Gu Lanzhi really wanted to stay at home for a few more years to let Gu Jingcheng grow more, but Gu Lanzhi also knew that Li Beichen would definitely not be able to wait.
Anyway, Gu Jingcheng will take over the title of marquis sooner or later, so Li Beichen can only spend more time and effort to take care of this young marquis.
The two brothers talked for a while and then went to the dining hall together.
Today is the first time the whole family has had a meal together since moving into the new marquis's mansion, and the first lady specially called the third lady over.
But as long as the third lady is around, the dining atmosphere will definitely not be very good.
According to usual practice, after dinner the Third Lady should have said goodbye and returned to her own courtyard, but she did not do so today. She even stayed to drink tea with everyone.
Gu Lanzhi and Gu Jingcheng knew very well in their hearts that the Third Madam had something to say.
Sure enough, the third lady spoke after just two sips of tea.
"My Lord, His Majesty has ascended the throne, and we have moved to a new palace. I wonder if My Lord has any plans for Shu Rui?"
Gu Lanzhi didn't even look at the Third Madam. He raised his lips slightly and asked, "I wonder what the Third Madam's arrangement is referring to?"
"Mom, today is the first time we've gathered together since we moved into the new house. Please don't say anything that no one wants to hear."
Before the Third Madam could answer Gu Lanzhi's question, Gu Shurui frowned and spoke to his mother.
He was really afraid that his mother would say something that would upset everyone on such a happy day.
