Seeing Gu Xiyan, who was so glamorous and exuding nobility, and then looking at her own misery, how could Liu Huiyan not hate her?

She hated Gu Xiyan so much, but she couldn't show it because she had to work under Gu Xiyan's nose. Otherwise, she would be sold out of the house and there would be no chance for her to turn around.

"I deserved to die before. I shouldn't talk too much in front of His Highness. I already know my mistake. Please forgive me for once." Liu Huiyan said with pain.

Gu Xiyan lifted Liu Huiyan's chin and looked at it again and again, and sighed softly: "Liu Si, I know your temper best. If you are safe, I can let you have a roof to cover your head. If you are uneasy, I will Then I will sell you out of the capital..."

Liu Huiyan turned pale with fright when she heard this. She rolled off the bed and knelt down in front of Gu Xiyan, begging for mercy: "Prince Concubine, I know your mistake. I will never dare to do it again. Please give me one more time, Princess Concubine." Chance."

Gu Xiyan looked at Liu Huiyan who was kneeling in front of her, her expression was calm and she didn't say anything.

This made Liu Huiyan feel anxious. Damn it, Gu Xiyan wouldn't really sell her out, right?

If so, wouldn't she no longer have any value to Liu Chaoyan?

"I really know my mistake. The princess has a pure heart. Please give me another chance. I beg you." Liu Huiyan cried bitterly as she spoke.

She was frightened after all, because she knew that Gu Xiyan was not kind at all and that this woman could do any evil thing.

Of course, her crying like this was somewhat of an act.

Gu Xiyan watched Liu Huiyan's performance intently. After a full quarter of an hour, Liu Huiyan couldn't cry anymore. The scene looked a bit embarrassing.

She quietly glanced at Gu Xiyan, but saw that Gu Xiyan's expression was as usual, and she actually felt that this woman was a little unpredictable.

Just when she was feeling uneasy, Gu Xiyan finally spoke up: "Because of the friendship between you and me who grew up under the same roof, I can give you another chance. If you still feel uneasy in the future, , don’t blame me for not looking at Mr. Hou’s face.”

Liu Huiyan breathed a sigh of relief and watched Gu Xiyan walk away.

It seems that Gu Xiyan is still easy to be soft-hearted, otherwise she will not handle it lightly. As long as she catches Gu Xiyan's tendency to be soft-hearted, she will have nothing to fear.

What's more, Wan Qinghou is her biological father. Can Gu Xiyan really ignore her father? It seemed that Gu Xiyan was just bluffing.

When Gu Xiyan came out of the back room, Hu Die walked up to her and asked, "Why did you come to see her? If you don't touch her when something like this happens, will she become suspicious?"

"It's precisely because she did this that I came over to give her a warning, otherwise it would be even more suspicious. I just wanted to make her convinced that it was because of Wanqing Hou Mansion that I gave her a chance." Gu Xiyan looked back and took her seat. Fang: "I believe she will spare no effort to do things for Liu Chaoyan in the future. If nothing happens, she will also tell the next door about me going to Suzhou with the young master."

"Can we not let her know?" Hu Die asked.

Gu Xiyan shook her head: "This matter cannot be hidden. After all, we are going to investigate the case, and the news will soon spread throughout the court and outside."

Hu Die lowered his voice and asked, "Will King Qin take action against His Highness if he knows about this?"

Gu Xiyan also had such doubts, but it was a foregone conclusion that Zhou Mu would go to Suzhou. She was only worried that if she followed, Zhou Mu would be held back.

She was just as worried if she didn't go with him. She might as well be with him all the time and face danger together.

It's night, Prince Qin's Mansion.

Zhou Xing received the news that Zhou Mu was about to go to Suzhou this morning when he went to pay his respects to Concubine Xian. Although he still didn't know the reason for Zhou Mu's sudden trip to Suzhou, this incident was already unusual.

He was still thinking about the matter after returning to the palace, and Zhao De was also very uneasy. Just because Suzhou is the sphere of influence of the Zheng family, the Zheng family was the main culprit in the food embezzlement case five years ago.

If Zhou Mu went to Suzhou to investigate this case and let Zhou Mu find out something, the Zheng family would be doomed, and even Xian Fei would not be able to escape his involvement.

And since he is the biological son of Concubine Xian, he will inevitably be implicated. This is the most terrifying thing.

"His Royal Highness cannot allow His Majesty to go down to Suzhou." Zhao De lowered his voice, worried that the walls had ears.

"You mean to let me attack that person on the way?" Zhou Xingdan glanced at Zhao De.

Zhao De knew that this was a treasonous crime of beheading, but he had to take action when it was time to be decisive.

"If there is no accident, His Highness will take the waterway and cause an accident to sink the ship. This will be done without anyone noticing. In this way, Suzhou's future troubles will be solved and a strong opponent will be eliminated." Zhao De's eyes were ruthless: "If His Highness is not at ease, let the servant take action."

"Have you ever thought that after Zhou Mu died, my father would continue to send people to Suzhou to continue the investigation. This cannot cure the root cause." Zhou Xing turned the jade ring on his hand.

But except for Zhou Mu, this matter made him very excited.

The most comfortable way to go from the capital to Suzhou is by water. Zhou Mu has a high chance of taking the water way. This is indeed a good time to take action.

The top priority was to resolve the crisis in Suzhou, so he took action when Zhou Mu went to Suzhou. If Zhou Mu was really going to die, his father would definitely doubt him.

Now is not the best time to take action against Zhou Mu.

Zhao De also knew the priority of the matter, but he still urgently wanted to kill Zhou Mu to clear the way for his son.

"Get ready, I am also going to Suzhou." Zhou Xing quickly made a decision.

It was related to the life and death of the Zheng family, so he had to keep an eye on Zhou Mu personally.

It would be fine if Zhou Mu just went there for fun this time. If he really went there with a purpose and found some evidence, he would definitely make sure that Zhou Mu never returned.

Zhao De took the order and went to prepare for the trip.

Two days later, Liu Chaoyan received the news from Liu Huiyan, and she immediately told Zhou Xing that Gu Xiyan would accompany Zhou Mu to Suzhou.

Zhou Xing's eyes flashed slightly after hearing this: "Is this the news from Liu Si?"

If Zhou Mu takes Xi Yan with him to Suzhou, does that mean Zhou Mu is not going to investigate the case?

Perhaps it was because they had a guilty conscience that they thought Zhou Mu returned to Suzhou to investigate the case.

"What the fourth sister heard with her own ears should be correct." Liu Chaoyan looked at Zhou Xing expectantly: "Brother A Xing is going on a long trip, should he find someone to take care of him?"

She knew that Zhou Xing was preparing to go to Suzhou these two days, and she heard about it. Next door, Zhou Mu took Gu Xiyan to Suzhou, so should Zhou Xing take her with him?

Zhou Xing glanced at Liu Chaoyan when he heard this, "I really should find someone to take care of me."

Liu Chaoyan's eyes lit up and he thought he had a chance to go with him. But Zhou Xing didn't point it out directly, so she couldn't ask further questions.

It happened that she didn't know that Zhou Xing had decided to take Su Ho out until the day before her trip.

Upon hearing the news, she was so angry that she threw a set of teacups to vent her anger.
