Gu Yihan narrowed his eyes and looked a little angry.
However, his tone was still very cold. “Empress Chi is already dead. You can ignore her words.”
Qiao Yayu looked at him with a hint of disappointment in her eyes.
She knew that Gu Yihan had been blaming Empress Chi for wanting to make use of him to win the emperor’s favor.
However, in Qiao Yayu’s opinion, this was just slander and framing.
“The empress is dead, but Godmother will live on forever. I’ll always remember her.”
Qiao Yayu raised her saber again and pointed it at Gu Yihan.
This time, her beautiful face revealed determination.
She was like a thorny rose that had bloomed under the scorching sun. She was unafraid of any wind and rain and chased after her beliefs tenaciously.
“I promise to make a bet with you. If I lose, I won’t mention joining the military. If you lose—”
Qiao Yayu stared at him. “Come with me to pay a visit to Empress Chi’s grave!”
Her voice was powerful and everyone fell silent.
Gu Yihan’s eyes turned cold as he stood there with his hands behind his back.
The forest behind him rustled from the sudden wind.
The surrounding soldiers didn’t dare to say anything.
This was because Empress Chi was His Highness’s bottom line that must not be mentioned.
In the best situation, he would be angered. In worse situations, they would be sentenced to death.
Only Second Miss Qiao, who had grown up with her, dared to say this.
Gu Yihan and Qiao Yayu looked at each other.
The wind passed through them.
The young girl was like a blazing sun, while the youth was like an abyss.
After a long while, Gu Yihan said, “Alright, remember what you said.”
He asked the guard to bring over his sword.
He decided to spar with Qiao Yayu.
When Gu Nuo’er heard until this part of the story, Gu Yihan didn’t continue.
Noble Consort Qiao, who was at the side, pressed her slender fingers against her glabella, looking like she had been embarrassed in front of her daughter.
Gu Nuo’er blinked her round eyes and asked in a soft voice, “So Father won?”
Gu Yihan smiled and stroked his daughter’s soft black hair.
“No, Father lost.”
Gu Nuo’er couldn’t help but let out a “wow”.
“Mother is really amazing!”
Gu Yihan looked sideways at Noble Consort Qiao with raised eyebrows.
Noble Consort Qiao could only laugh dryly. She crossed her arms and quietly bowed to Gu Yihan.
The meaning was to ask him to spare her this once.
Therefore, Gu Yihan didn’t tell their daughter what happened after that.
It turned out that not long after they had started sparing and were engaged in an intense battle…
Suddenly!
Qiao Yayu turned around and took a step back, Gu Yihan noticed that on her light yellow dress, close to where her butt was…
There was actually a hint of dark red.
His expression changed.
However, Qiao Yayu didn’t know anything and continued to attack with her saber.
This continued until Gu Yihan suddenly grabbed her wrist and whispered a few words into her ear with a cold expression.
The soldiers saw that Young Miss Qiao’s face had turned red, and her watery eyes were filled with panic and embarrassment!
Gu Yihan took off his outer robe and covered her.
Then, he pushed her into the tent at the side.
Wanyin and Wanxuan hurriedly chased after them.
When they walked out of the tent, the two of them heard their young miss crying inside. “It’s over. My innocence is gone.”
Right on the heels of that was Gu Yihan’s angry scolding. “Cut the crap. They probably didn’t see it. You actually don’t remember when you would have your monthly menses?”
“It’s all your fault. I was too angry and my mind was filled with the thoughts of seeking justice for Brother.”
Gu Yihan sneered.
Qiao Yayu added, “Just you wait. I’ll change my clothes then come back to compete with you!”
There was silence in the tent.
Then, Gu Yi’s cold and hard voice sounded. “Consider it your win. We won’t compete anymore.”
After saying that, he strode away, lifting the curtain and leaving.
He didn’t forget to say to Wanyin and Wanxuan, “Take good care of your young miss.”
