“So they have a common enemy,” Gu Chaoyan said with a smile.

Well…

That was what she discovered after she came to the Feather Mulberry Land. So her plan of making use of the conflict and introducing the Luo’s into the Feather Mulberry Land had led to a very satisfactory result.

As she was speaking, Gu Chaoyan could not help but add one more thing. “Actually, if the Imperial Master had a better knowledge of himself, he would not have ended up in such a state. We spoke with him back in the Saint Divine Land, and he is a very self-conceited person who never reflects on himself or takes anyone seriously. Someone like him must have established very many enemies everywhere. People might tolerate when they have no chance to bring him down, so he mistakenly believes that he has become the leader of all the ministers, but when his enemies find the opportunity of bringing him down, they will do so directly.”

Having said this, Gu Chaoyan took another sip of tea. She felt very thirsty after talking so much.

When Zhou Huaiyu heard what she had said, he felt so strongly stricken that he just could not bring himself back.

He was extremely startled. He had a complete understanding towards women, except when it came to Gu Chaoyan. He had always assumed that women only needed to guard whatever they had in the mansion and know how to bring down their female competitors, but Gu Chaoyan was a very discreet woman, who had seen through people and the imperial competition in the Feather Mulberry Land.

Or in other words, whatever she was doing had been well-planned, because when she made the plan, she was making it based on people’s nature.

That was so amazing. She could even be the King.

He looked at Gu Chaoyan and then at Zhou Huaijin. “You are born to be a couple, both of you are so full of plans.”

They should never offend this couple.

He thought that the Imperial Master could have lived happily for a few more years, but he had offended Gu Chaoyan because of his own ignorance, so that he ended up in such a hobble.

Well…

He did not think that the Imperial Master had understood what caused all of his trouble at this point. How pathetic!

Zhou Huaiyu, at this moment, did not dare to make any comments upon what Gu Chaoyan said – what if she held a grudge against him? He might even lose his own life!

Zhou Huaiyu shook his head involuntarily.

He asked seriously, “What are we supposed to do next?”

“We don’t need to do anything.The Luo’s can stay open, and as for the Imperial Master… he will come to us himself,” Gu Chaoyan said calmly. “He is suspecting that we have someone behind our back, and he must be looking into that right now. In a couple of days, he will find out who is our supporter, and then, he will come to us personally.”

Zhou Huaiyu smiled.

The Imperial Master could not have known that he was being watched, not physically, but mentally by someone else.

Gu Chaoyan was indeed a very amazing woman.

Yinfeng, who was standing next to them, could not help turning to Lady Chaoyan. He felt really assured inside his heart. He had been so worried during the past few months, but now, he was feeling better – Lady Chaoyan was here, and she was making him feel safe.

He did not think that Prince Muyi had gained much from the Saint Divine Land, every year he went there to pay attributes, but this year…

He felt that the biggest harvest Prince Muyi had gained was to have befriended Lady Chaoyan, and showed his sincere intention of cooperating with her, so that Lady Chaoyan was willing to help him at this moment.

Suddenly, Yinfeng was reminded of something.

When Prince Muyi was in the Saint Divine Land before the New Year, the King told them to visit the Gu Mansion.

There, the Old Master of the Gu Mansion had some words with Prince Muyi.
