"And, give Lord Huai's Mansion the imperial order and let Lord Huai come to see me tomorrow. I have some things to discuss with him," the King said unkindly.
"Yes." De Fu answered and hurried off.
He owed Gu Chaoyan a favor, but not Lord Huai. De Fu left without hesitation.
Zhou Huailing was not as angry as the King. He smiled briefly. "You are right, father. Phoenix Girl is just a woman."
"…"
"She is hard to get close to, because I have a Crown Prince Consort, whom she dislikes."
"…"
"Father, you can give an imperial order and remove the title of the Crown Prince Consort. Then I can speak with her and everything will be fine."
"…"
"The Phoenix Girl is right. I should work on the Shadow Door right now," Zhou Huailing said confidently.
Hearing what the Crown Prince said, the King felt that it made sense.
The Phoenix Girl was just a woman and all she required was a small space in the backyard, she was easy to deal with.
He patted the Crown Prince's shoulders, telling him to get down to his mission.
It was quiet in the Qianqing Palace.
…
The Gu Mansion.
Gu Chaoyan rushed directly to Pear Yard after leaving the court. She asked Sword One to guard the door. She needed to meet Huang Fu as soon as possible.
Only Huang Fu would know what was happening outside the door to enchantment.
Even Destiny Monk had only a vague knowledge about it.
Gu Chaoyan went straight into her space.
Then she went into the room to meet Huang Fu, who was there.
He was still dressed in the red robe, but the peonies had been changed into a different pattern. Gu Chaoyan would have thought that he had not changed his clothes if not for a closer look.
"Forces out of the door to enchantment are on the way to the Saint Divine Land, for the Golden Rolls. Do you know what the world is like outside the door to enchantment?" Gu Chaoyan asked straightforwardly after she took a seat.
It was strange. She had just met Huang Fu once, but she had a hunch that he knew everything.
Huang Fu stared right at Gu Chaoyan after hearing her question.
She was right. He knew very well what was outside the door to enchantment, but… he was not going to answer her straightforwardly.
Days had passed since she saw him last time and the fruits in the space were all harvested and so were the herbs and yet she never intended to come and visit him… Didn't she miss him?
Now, she was here today… Only because she needed something.
And she asked him what she wanted to hear the moment she sat down.
How ruthless.
He was not going to tell her what he knew.
Huang Fu turned around, took up a book and started to read it as if Gu Chaoyan had not said a thing.
Gu Chaoyan was confused.
What was going on?
She put down the teacup, got up and came to Huang Fu. "You have no idea either? Then I will be off."
"Of course I do." Huang Fu answered hearing that she was leaving. "You want to know the truth?"
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
"Then kiss me."
