However, Gu Yanfei wasn’t looking at the jade but at its spiritual energy.
When she held the jade bracelet in her hand, a thin stream of spiritual energy flowed into her body from her fingers and flowed along her veins. It was as warm as hot spring water…
The jade in this bracelet was full of spiritual energy. It was even better than the white jade bracelet she gave Lu Qin.
What a good thing!
Gu Yanfei asked Juan Bi to accept this gift and said calmly, “Madam, you’re too kind.”
Seeing this, everyone in the Lu family heaved a sigh of relief. This meant that Second Lady Gu had let this matter go.
Madam Chang’an smiled and said, “Miss, you’re really magnanimous. Please don’t mind my sister-in-law. When All Qin recovers another day, 1’11 get her to personally visit you and thank you.”
Madam Chang’an was secretly glad that her niece, Lu Qin, wasn’t as muddle-headed as her mother and knew how to be on good terms with Gu Yanfei and Wei Jiaoniang. This was also a blessing for the family.
“There’s no hurry. Let Ah Qin recuperate well.” Gu Yanfei smiled slightly.
In terms of the outcome, this matter finally brought clarity to the case of Gu Ce. It was a good thing, so there was no need for her to be concerned about trivial matters.
Madam Chang’an and Uncle Chang exchanged glances and were completely relieved.
Second Madam Lu composed herself and only dared to ask about the worry that had been hidden in her heart for a long time. “Second Lady Gu, may 1 ask if Qin’er will be fine in the future?”
Second Master Lu was also a little nervous as he stared at Gu Yanfei with a burning gaze.
“Refund all the betrothal gifts we received,” Gu Yanfei said.
“Retreat, retreat, retreat!” Everyone from the Lu family nodded vigorously.
Gu Yanfei continued, “Retrieve the marriage documents, the birthdate records, and Ah Qin’s blood samples. Then, go to Wuliang Temple and ask the Temple Master to perform a ritual for Ah Qin to dispel any ill fortune.”
“Remember to tell the Temple Master everything. The Temple Master knows what to do. It’s taboo to hide anything when seeking help from the Temple Master.”
No matter what Gu Yanfei said, the Lu family agreed. Everyone’s attitude was extremely respectful, and they almost worshipped Gu Yanfei as a Bodhisattva.
Imperial Duchess Wei couldn’t help but smile as she slowly drank her tea. She felt that this matter was also a warning to the Lu family. There was no free lunch in the sky. They didn’t even know how to be cautious when it came to their children’s marriage. Who knew they would cause a huge disaster one day!
After all, the Lu family wasn’t familiar with Gu Yanfei and Gu Yuan, so they didn’t stay long. They thanked her and gave her gifts. After chatting for a while, the Lu family consciously bid farewell.
Gu Yanfei instructed Nanny Pang to send the Lu family and Imperial Duchess Wei off. Only the siblings were left in the hall.
After the Lu family’s interruption, the extremely sorrowful atmosphere from before faded.
Gu Yanfei played with the jade bracelet that was filled with spiritual energy with one hand and picked up a candied fruit with the other. He casually asked, “Big Brother, don’t you have to be on duty today?”
Today didn’t seem to be Big Brother’s day off.
Gu Yuan answered honestly, “The Eldest Prince asked me to rest at home for a few days.”
Thinking of Chu Yi, Gu Yuan recalled the scene last night when Chu Yi suggested overturning the case for his father in public.
Chu Yi’s actions were really swift and decisive. From the day of his father’s death to today, it had only been a few days, but things could actually progress to this extent. Now that he thought about it, Gu Yuan still felt like he was in a dream!
Gu Yuan’s lips curled up slightly at first, but then he thought of something. The corners of his lips stiffened, and his expression became extremely subtle. Last night, not only did Chu Yi mention the reversal of the case, but he also asked the Emperor to bestow a marriage on him and his sister in public.
As he thought about it, Gu Yuan’s heart ached. He raised his hand and rubbed Gu Yanfei’s soft head, messing up her hair.
Gu Yanfei looked at her brother in confusion, not knowing what was wrong with him.
Gu Yuan had no intention of speaking up for Chu Yi. He cleared his throat and said, “The Eldest Prince just sent someone to Yangzhou this morning… I wanted to go too, but the Eldest Prince said that I can’t interfere in this matter.”
Of course, Gu Yuan knew how to avoid arousing suspicion. It was also because he was in a mess that he forgot his limits for a moment.
“Then how many days do you plan to rest?” Gu Yanfei smiled and said, “Brother, don’t just work all day. You have to rest when it’s time.”
“You have to learn from Qing Guang and relax.”
Gu Yuan found it a little funny. His eyes softened a little, and he rubbed his sister’s head again. “The Eldest Prince just transferred me out of the Divine Arms Battalion. He said that I should serve him as the Commandant of the Capital.”
Gu Yanfei understood immediately.. “Big Brother, are you going to transfer to a Commandant of the Capital?”
