In order to better control Lan Ke, Gu Yuying specially arranged four maids for her as a dowry, including Hongxiu.
These four people were naturally Gu Yuying's confidants, and their strength was at the level of two-star warriors. Gu Yuying believed in their abilities and felt that with their constant watch and the heart-eating poison, this matter would definitely be foolproof.
If Lan Ke was really an ordinary person, even if she was resentful, she probably couldn't do anything. How could a useless person with an ordinary background who couldn't practice be a match for these maids from aristocratic families
Unfortunately, Gu Yuying never expected that a slap in the face would come so quickly!
When the auspicious time came, Lan Ke, who had dressed up, left Gu's house in a red and gold-painted chariot. She sat upright in the chariot, looking around calmly along the way.
The Gu family is worthy of being one of the four great families in the capital. Their house is incredibly large, with carved railings and painted buildings, rare treasures and plants, and it is beautiful beyond words.
Beautiful maids in gauze clothes shuttled among them, their steps light and graceful. When the breeze blew, their clothes fluttered, as if they were about to rise up into the sky at any moment.
The streets had been cleared and a bright red carpet was laid all the way, with red gauze hanging on both sides. Strong soldiers, with swords on their waists, stood in neat rows behind the red gauze, with one soldier standing every five steps.
Behind these soldiers were the people who came out to watch the excitement out of curiosity.
They looked at Lan Ke on the chariot with curiosity and talked among themselves in low voices.
"Is that the Gu family's genius?"
"I heard that Gu Tianjiao is the most beautiful woman in the capital. Her reputation is well-deserved."
"The eldest prince is really lucky."
"What a pity! A genius of her generation has to marry a loser like the eldest prince."
"Keep your voice down! No one can hear you!"
"What are you afraid of? I didn't say anything wrong! Isn't he a waste?"
"That's the eldest prince!"
"So what if he's the eldest prince? He's still a piece of crap. If you ask me, His Majesty and the Queen dote on him too much. How can such a piece of crap be worthy of the Gu family's proud daughter?"
"Alright, alright, stop talking."
…
Lan Ke calmly rolled her eyes and looked in the direction of the voice. She found that when those people mentioned the eldest prince, they were full of disdain and had no respect at all.
On the contrary, they admired and yearned for Gu Yuying, this greedy and shameless woman, as if Gu Yuying was a fairy in the sky and the eldest prince Jun Tianheng was the mud on the ground.
It's really ridiculous.
Lan Ke felt unhappy, so she stopped paying attention to the passers-by and started looking at the shops on both sides of the street.
The streets are spacious and clean, shops are lined up, and passers-by are well-dressed.
It's a prosperous scene.
Lan Ke couldn't help but watch with a bit of fascination. The Beijing city where she lived was also prosperous before the end of the world. However, when the end of the world came, in just a month, those bustling shopping malls and office buildings had become dilapidated.
Although the Wuji base had developed well, it was just a base after all. Outside the base, everything was still desolate and dilapidated.
She hadn't seen such a magnificent sight of flowers for a long time.
It’s a pity that time is limited, otherwise she would really like to stay here for a few more days.
Gradually, the streets on both sides became very different, from rows of shops to the courtyard walls of wealthy families.
Lan Ke realized that they were almost there.
The eldest prince, Jun Tianheng, has been named the virtuous prince, and the wedding will be held in his palace. Presumably, the virtuous prince's palace is not far away.
Thinking about meeting Jun Tianheng soon, Lan Ke suddenly felt a little nervous.
She is still not sure whether this Jun Tianheng is the one she knows.
If yes, that's fine, but if not...
No, no, no, her luck shouldn't be that bad, it wouldn't be that weird.
At this moment, she suddenly saw red silk hanging in the distance and many people waiting at the door. It should be the Prince Xian's Palace.
Lan Ke's mood instantly became extremely nervous.
She is not ready to marry Jun Tianheng yet.
Although she had no choice this time, she felt very strange when she thought that the other person was Jun Tianheng and didn't know her, and she even had the urge to run away.
Forget it, let’s just follow the original plan later.
Anyway, she had no plan to really marry Jun Tianheng.
As the Xianwang Mansion got closer and closer, Lan Ke was getting nervous when she suddenly saw a very familiar person. She couldn't help but stretch her neck and stare at the person's face.
That's... a younger version of Jun Tianheng!
Lan Ke was stunned for a moment.
Although it was still the same face, his temperament was completely different. The Jun Tianheng she knew was cold and indifferent, and gave people an unfathomable sense of oppression.
Only when he was with her would his attitude become gentler, but he still spoke very little, not even a few words a day.
This person is obviously different.
He is younger and gentler, like a piece of warm and beautiful jade.
Lan Ke was very surprised, she didn’t expect Jun Tianheng to look like this when he was young. The difference between him and later on was too big!
What on earth did he go through to become such a person
The ruthless swordsman, is it not that he has always been ruthless, but that he has no more feelings
Lan Ke's face was solemn, and she couldn't help but wonder, if she hadn't traveled through time, who would Gu Yuying arrange to marry in her place? Would it be Gu Yuluo, or someone else
Whenever Lan Ke thought that Jun Tianheng might marry someone else, and that person was a pawn in Gu Yuying's hands, her anger burned fiercely.
Is a greedy woman like Gu Yuying worthy of being called a favored daughter of heaven? Let's see how she tears off her painted skin!
The chariot was getting closer and closer. Lan Ke stared at Jun Tianheng, not wanting to give anyone else her gaze. Jun Tianheng was also looking at her, and when their eyes met, they were both stunned.
Soon, the chariot stopped at the gate of the palace.
Someone seemed to say something, but unfortunately Lan Ke could no longer hear it.
Her attention was all on Jun Tianheng at this moment. Seeing Jun Tianheng slowly walk up to her, smiling and extending his hand to her, Lan Ke couldn't help but feel annoyed.
What are you laughing at! Is marrying Gu Yuying going to make him so happy? He also said that he has never liked anyone else, so what is he saying now
She angrily stretched out her hand and placed it on Jun Tianheng's palm, then held it tightly. Ignoring his momentary surprised look, she walked down the chariot with an expressionless face.
The maid held up her wide skirt from behind, and the golden phoenix, illuminated by the sunlight, looked as if it was about to flap its wings and fly.
Lan Ke grabbed Jun Tianheng and walked side by side with him. She approached him calmly and asked in a low voice with displeasure: "Are you happy to marry the beautiful daughter of the Gu family?"
Unexpectedly, Jun Tianheng did not answer but asked: "Are you very unwilling to marry me? Oh, no, you are not her, who are you?"
Lan Ke was so shocked that her heart almost jumped out: "You know?"
"Your eyes are different, and my memory has always been good."
"Then why are you laughing?"
"It's just a show."
"… "
