After making sure that there was nothing strange on her cheeks, Gu Mei endured the shame and walked towards the flower hall in front of her.
After arriving at the flower hall, Gu Mei was stunned.
Princess Su Xin did not come alone, there was another figure beside her.
Wearing a green robe, tall and erect, standing in front of a painting with his hands behind his hands, he really has the demeanor of a Buddhist with an immortal air.
The premise is that if Gu Mei doesn't know how shameless he is.
When he turned around, his sharp eyes fell on Gu Mei.
Gu Mei was frightened by that gaze. She didn't know why Helan Yan was here. Could it be that he was accompanying Princess Su Xin to apologize?
She felt unrealistic.
At this time, all the men in the Hou Mansion were on duty in the Yamen, and no one led Helan Yan to the study room where he met the male guest in front of him.
Gu Mei pinched the cold handkerchief in her hand and mustered up the courage to step forward.
Princess Su Xin sat on the side seat, her narrow phoenix eyes stared at Gu Mei who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Get up."
"A few days ago, the people around me were eager to catch the thief and accidentally broke into the Hou Mansion. We did not really mean to neglect the Hou Mansion. Please forgive me."
As Princess Su Xin spoke, her head swayed slightly and she looked at Gu Mei with a smile.
Gu Mei tilted her head, the effects of the medicine in her body rolled together, and her whole body was almost on fire.
He just said in a low voice: "It's just a misunderstanding. The princess came to the door and tried to mess with us."
Princess Su Xin raised her face and said to Gu Mei, "Although the Crown Prince's wife and the Emperor's brother have not seen each other for many years, they grew up together. Why are they so alienated?"
Princess Su Xin didn't pay much attention to the incident of breaking into the Marquis' Mansion. Somehow she was brought to her father's house, and it happened that the Crown Prince's brother was also there at that time.
The prince's brother's few words encouraged her father to forcefully demand that she come to apologize, so Princess Su Xin had to come to the door reluctantly.
Unexpectedly, it was Gu Mei who received the reception.
Princess Su Xin suddenly became interested again.
It's a pity that Gu Mei is as submissive and polite as a dough.
But, that’s okay. She could step on Gu Mei's face as she pleased.
Princess Su Xin thought of the previous banquet in the palace. She had someone wipe something on Gu Mei's chopsticks. She also led Xie Wen to the garden, hoping that he would see Gu Mei hanging out with the man next to her.
Unexpectedly, things backfired, and by the end of the banquet, no one was reported to be stealing Qingqing in the imperial garden.
What a waste of time.
Gu Mei endured the burning heat and came here reluctantly. At this moment, she didn't want to waste any more time. She just wanted to send Princess Su Xin and the others away.
"In the past, I was just ignorant and didn't know what to do. Your Highness's majestic power is beyond the reach of a foreign minister like me."
Helan Yan, who had not spoken since entering the door, tapped on the table with one hand after another.
Gu Mei knew very well that He Lanyan was angry.
Are you angry because Princess Su Xin forcefully pulled them together?
But she has tried her best to distance herself from the relationship between the two.
Princess Su Xin saw that Gu Mei's behavior was normal and she seemed to have lost interest. She didn't linger for long, said a few more words, got up and left.
After leaving the Hou Mansion, Princess Su Xin said to Helan Yan angrily: "Brother Emperor, I have come to apologize. Are you satisfied now?"
Helan Yan was riding on a horse, condescending, crushing Princess Su Xin with cold eyes: "You are a golden person, so naturally you can do whatever you want, but you must have a bottom line. I hope you will restrain yourself."
Princess Su Xin's face became hot when she was scolded, and she blurted out, "Brother Emperor, don't you have any sympathy for Gu Mei anymore?"
Helan Yan tightened the reins: "I don't have such a special habit of interfering with other people's wives. In five years, many things have changed."
"In this life, Gu Mei and Gu Du have nothing to do with each other. Su Xin, you should have known it for a long time."
With that said, he turned his horse's head and left.
While the horse was galloping, Helan Yan somehow recalled the look of Gu Mei just now.
Her cheeks seemed a little too red and her face was a little pale.
He couldn't help but think of that day, when her whole body clung to him weakly and bonelessly.
After that day in the cave, he had someone check it out, and it turned out that what was in Gu's eyebrows was a drug called three-day drunkenness.
It is said that I was drunk for three days, but it is not really drunk for three days. The effect of the medicine is strong. It happened once every half month in the past, and became more and more frequent in the future.
If an antidote is not found, the person using traditional Chinese medicine will collapse and die.
Doing the math, it's almost half a month.
If so, how did she get through it?
He Lanyan's finger bones holding the reins suddenly tightened. It was impossible to expect her to come to him shamelessly.
So, he ordered in a deep voice, "Turn around."
