"A lot of people came to the emperor's house to extort money, but the other party was able to scam the world almost without anyone noticing. When Yun Fu came back to talk about this, the third prince suspected that it was an influential person in the imperial court who was able to do it so flawlessly." "Thank you," the widow said.

Gu Liuyan finally reacted. The Emperor must have surrounded that place in all three layers. Since the Lingyun family was located in a remote area and had a large area of land, it wasn't convenient to bring everything back to Tianyan, so he chose to send troops to guard it.

It would be strange if they didn't want to pass through these soldiers and get their hands on the formula.

"I'll try to be careful." Gu Liuyan nodded, but he had an idea.

Back then, when Gu Cheng had married his mother, he had said it was because of love. However, now, even her daughter had been thrown into a fire pit, and he had not truly loved her. Thinking about it carefully, it was perhaps because of the Yun clan's position and the Yun clan's secret recipe that Gu Cheng had married Yun Wan that year.

Back then, he even had Yun Qingyang build a building inside the mansion, which showed how important she was.

"Do you have any leads?" Wishing the widow a bright eye.

"For the time being, I can't say. I have to consider this matter over a long period of time." Gu Danyan hurriedly shook his head. In this world, there were probably only a few people who knew that Gu Cheng had not died, and there was also the relationship between Gu Sheng and Gu Cheng. Moreover, Duan Chengxuan hadn't exposed Gu Sheng's disguise, so he didn't know what he was planning.

The Widow Zhu naturally trusted Gu Danyan, so she could only nod and leave. She said that she would first go and stay at the Eight Directions Inn for a while, and only after waiting for the Emperor's secret orders would they be able to leave Tian Yan.

Gu Danyan quickly sent some silver notes over, "There are so many children, don't push too hard."

The widow took the banknotes and nodded her head. "If they don't leave soon, I'll find a teacher to teach them. I won't let them suffer."

Watching the widow leave, Gu Danyan finally felt relieved about Madam Yun.

Three days later, the three carriages of the prince's mansion slowly made their way to the White Horse Temple.

He went to burn incense for the victims of the disaster and prayed to Buddha Bodhisattva Buddha not to come in this year's flood. It could be said that he was doing a good deed for King Jing's Estate, that he would be staying at the Temple of White Horse in the next five to six days.

The three of them rode a horse carriage, neither of them interfering with each other. However, Gu Danyan was the only one who was lying in front of the window with Qing Shui in his arms. Qing Shui's eyes sparkled as he grabbed onto the demonic beast's fingertips: "Fly!"

In the end, Qing Jun was the descendant of Old Devil Bai in the martial arts world. He was very dedicated to martial arts.

Gu Daiyan pushed Qing Ze into the ghost's arms and said, "Whether it's Qing Gong or riding a horse, Silver Ear hasn't run away with his hooves spread out for a long time."

Yin He, who was standing outside the carriage, snorted. Gui Gui Gui could only carry Qing and wander around, jumping up and down.

Along the way, they had Gu Liuyan, the troublemaker, but Zhang Niang and Phantom Demon did not stay idle. Even the coachman sighed repeatedly. He wished that he could vent out his anger for this life.

After a day's journey, they finally arrived at the isolated White Horse Temple.

The White Horse Temple was located deep in the mountains, and it was said that it had occupied this place since the founding of Navy Tide Nation. Currently, it occupied a large part of the land within the forest, and there was a winding mountain path in front of them with flat stone slabs.

The only difference was that there weren't many pilgrims who could stay in the temple. The commoners could only come to offer incense and Buddha to sign their names while the imperial family or the noble ladies could stay for a few days and stay in the temple for a few days.

The things inside the White Horse Temple weren't simple and crude, they were even better than other temples.

Coincidentally, as soon as Gu Danyan entered the door, she bumped into a well-dressed woman. Seeing that Qing Yi was fine, she quickly apologized: "Sorry, I was careless …"

"Jing …" "Imperial Concubine Jing …" The woman's beautiful face instantly paled and she took a few steps back in fear. If it weren't for the fact that her ghost-like hands were quick enough to grab onto someone, the woman would have tripped over the threshold behind her.

Gu Danyan was curious, she seemed to have never seen this woman before.

When Gu Zixian and Su Yu Wan got off the car and saw this scene, they were extremely curious.

At that moment, the servant girl also rushed out to support the woman. She glared at the ghost, "Why aren't you apologizing after hitting my wife? "My Young Master is the Prime Minister!"

"Hua Li!" The woman reprimanded the maidservant with a pale face, "This is a subordinate of Crown Princess Jing. Hurry up and apologize!"

The maidservant called Hua Li's face turned deathly pale. She opened her mouth to look at Gu Daiyan, then at the ghost. She hurriedly apologized to the ghost, turned around, and bowed to Gu Daiyan, "This servant was blind, and charged towards Crown Princess Jing …"

Gu Danyan waved his hand: "We just bumped into each other."

Upon hearing the woman's identity, Spiritdove reached out and held Qing Shui in his arms. Gu Daiyan walked up to the woman and saw that she looked much better than before. He then said softly, "So the Madam is Prime Minister Gu's mother. Did you come to the White Horse Temple today to pray?"

Madam Gu did not say anything, but Hua Li nodded her head. "Yes, young master has just taken up his position. Madam has specially come here to thank Buddha. He just arrived yesterday and will be staying for a few more days."

Madam Gu seemed to blame Hua Li for opening her mouth so quickly. The moment she glared at her, Hua Li immediately shut up.

Gu Zi Wu also looked over at this moment, looking at this madam before clenching his fists. He hadn't thought that his father Gu Cheng's seat would be taken by a young man. Looking at it all, Gu Sheng was only a few years older than them.

"Lord Gu is indeed young and capable. He should return the favor." He took out a toy that belonged to a child from his sleeve and stuffed it into Hua Li's hands. He then looked at the wooden sculpture of a flowery cat hanging from Hua Li's waist, and laughed: "I originally planned to buy it for Qing Ze, but this white jade mouse is really suitable for the flowery cat by your waist."

Hua Li was pleasantly surprised. She looked down and saw the small white jade carving in her hand. It was not cheap.

Lady Gu also blankly watched Gu Mingyan walk into the White Horse Temple. A pear by her side tugged at her. "Madam, Crown Princess Jing is clearly a good person. This white jade sculpture is extremely valuable."

"It's better to avoid trouble than to let Sheng'er get away with it. Don't talk too much, don't let Sheng'er get away with it." Lady Gu heaved a sigh of relief.

"I know, but the old master always says that the more ordinary his performance is, the harder it is for others to see through him." Hua Li chuckled, and looked at Gu Danyan with an evil look in her eyes.

However, he didn't notice that Gu Danyan's eyes were slightly narrowed as she gestured towards the ghost.
