169 Showed That Miss Gu Was Not Simple
“Since Young Master Meng said so, it shows that this Miss Gu is not simple.”As Rong Yuehai spoke, he sized up Rong Zhan.
He knew his grandson’s temper best.
This was the first time he had heard Rong Zhan praise a woman like this.
Not only that, he had clearly called Gu Qingxue over today, but he had not called Rong Zhan along. At the end, when his grandson heard the news, not only did he come over, but he also stopped Gu Qingxue.
The more the old prince thought about it, the more he felt that it was not simple. Even the gaze he gave Rong Zhan had a deeper meaning.
When Qu Lianyu saw that the development of the matter had completely exceeded her expectations, she could not help but feel even more flustered. “But, but the matter has yet to come to a conclusion. What if Gu Qingxue can’t cure the young prince…”
“What if she can? Even if it’s one in ten thousand… No, even if it’s one in a hundred thousand, even if it’s one in a million, as long as it can cure Han’er, I will go and try even if I have to spend all of my wealth,” Rong Yuehai said firmly.
“But, Grandpa Rong, Gu Qingxue’s actions are too unruly. She dared to throw me into the water yesterday. Another day, perhaps she will also be violent towards the young heir!” Qu Lianyu’s heart was in a mess.
She had originally wanted the old prince to stand up for her, but why did the old prince thank Gu Qingxue instead?
“Speaking of which, you brought my people to invite Eldest Miss Gu yesterday. Even if she is arrogant, she wouldn’t be able to throw you into the water in front of so many people.” Rong Yuehai’s impression of Gu Qingxue had changed quite a bit, he calmly analyzed the situation.
Yesterday, Qu Lianyu brought a few nannies with her. Gu Qingxue was a weak woman, how could she be a match for so many people?
Not to mention, she had to throw Qu Lianyu into the water.
Rong Zhan picked up the tea that the nannies had brought for him and took a sip.
Qu Lianyu saw that Rong Zhan did not say anything, so she stammered, “His Royal Highness gave the jade dragon pendant to Gu Qingxue. Liu Yi and Ji Yan followed her orders and threw me into the water.”
“Jade dragon pendant? The jade dragon pendant that the emperor had given?” Rong Yuehai’s eyes immediately lit up.
Qu Lianyu saw Rong Yuehai’s reaction and hurriedly nodded, “Reporting to Grandpa Rong, that’s right! That jade dragon pendant was given by the emperor. If this news were to spread to the palace, wouldn’t something big happen?”
“Hahaha, something big indeed!” Rong Yuehai suddenly laughed joyfully for some unknown reason, “If such a good thing were to spread to the Fengkang Palace, the empress dowager would definitely ask me to enter the palace and have a good time together.”
Qu Lianyu was dumbfounded. “Old Royal Highness, what are you talking about?”
Rong Yuehai did not have the time to care about Qu Lianyu at all. His smile was extremely brilliant, and his old face looked like a blooming chrysanthemum. “Zhan’er, since you have a woman that you like, why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Qu Lianyu’s eyes widened. “Grandpa Rong, don’t joke around. Why would His Royal Highness like Gu Qingxue?!”
Rong Yuehai did not seem to notice the disappointment and shock in Qu Lianyu’s eyes, he cleared his throat and said, “When the emperor gifted the jade dragon pendant to Zhan’er, he said that this was a gift from him to the future princess consort in advance. Zhan’er, quickly go and invite that Lady Gu over. Let me see my future granddaughter-in-law!”
“Grandfather misunderstood. It was just a passing gift that day.” Rong Zhan appeared calm and collected as he stuffed the handkerchief hidden in his sleeve into his sleeve.
Rong Yuehai rolled his eyes in disdain. He did not believe Rong Zhan’s nonsense at all.
The jade dragon pendant was his betrothal gift to the future princess consort as the regent prince. If it was convenient for him, he could give anything else. Why would he give the jade dragon pendant?
