Noble Consort Qiao nodded silently.
When she and Gu Yihan were still children, they liked to bicker more.
There was once when the two of them quarreled with each other, angering each other to death.
The former Empress tried to ease their relationship.
She casually plucked a green leaf and taught them a tune.
At that time, the previous Empress said, “This tune is called Yearning. You guys will grow up in the future.
“Han’er might become the ruler, and Yayu had your own ambitions. You might become a famous female general.
“If one day, the two of you have no choice but to separate, and you think back on your friendship and miss each other, you can play this tune.” Melodious music sounded.
Gu Yihan placed the green leaf under his lips and blew on it gently.
The previous Empress had taught the two of them this song because she was afraid that they would be heartbroken if they were separated when they grew up since they were close as children.
However, she didn’t expect that this song would now become something that Noble Consort Qiao and Gu Yihan used to think back on her.
Life was unpredictable and the love of the emperor was unpredictable.
Noble Consort Qiao recalled something the former Empress had said to her many years ago.
Don’t put her love on the emperor. Otherwise, her love would be like holding fire in the wind. She would run the risk of burning herself.
This was what Noble Consort Qiao had warned herself all these years.
However, after Gu Yihan finished playing the tune, he held Noble Consort Qiao’s hand tightly.
“You can be more arrogant when facing Grand Consort Yu. I’ll give you the confidence to do so.
Noble Consort Qiao lowered her eyes slightly, her voice revealing a hint of unfathomability.
“She was once the Grand Consort who raised His Majesty in name, so your consort can’t do anything to her.”
Gu Yihan focused his gaze and looked at the water. The light and shadows illuminated his handsome eyes, but they revealed a hint of coldness.
“I’m waiting for an opportunity. Once I can find any evidence of what Grand Consort Yu did back then, I’ll spare no effort to kill them all.”
Noble Consort Qiao didn’t say anything for a long time.
After a long while, Gu Yihan put his arm around her shoulder. “Let’s go. Looking at the time, Nuo’er should be back from the state school.”
The two of them returned to the Qiushui Palace.
As expected, Gu Nuo’er had already returned.
She had just washed her fair and tender hands under Wanyin’s service.
Gu Nuo’er sat on the chair impatiently and was planning to eat the small pastries Wanxuan had prepared for her first.
The child had just grabbed a piece of sugar cake when she saw her father and mother walking hand in hand.
She obediently put the pastry down again, jumped off the chair, and pounced over.
She first hugged her jealous father before snuggling into her mother’s arms.
The child rubbed her head against her mother, messing up her hair. “Father, Mother, where did the two of you go to play? Why didn’t you bring Nuo’er along?!”
Gu Yihan seemed to be in a good mood.
He picked the child up and pinched her chubby and soft face.
“Father brought your mother to admire the flowers.”
“Wow, admire the flowers!” Gu Nuo’er looked back and forth between the two of them with her big watery eyes.
Then, she raised her eyebrows like a little adult. “Father, is Mother prettier or are the flowers prettier?”
Gu Yihan turned around and looked at Noble Consort Qiao seriously.
Noble Consort Qiao was stunned and her face was about to turn red from his gaze.
Only then did Gu Yihan nod and say firmly, “Your mother is prettier.”
Gu Nuo’er crossed her arms, her black eyes sparkling. “Father, you can’t just say it next time. If you see beautiful flowers, you have to pick them for the girl you like.”
Gu Yihan couldn’t help but laugh. “Who did you learn these from?”
“Playboy older brother! ”
Radish?
