Gu Mingyan said calmly, thinking that his cousin was asking him if he wanted to join the Seventh Prince.

However, in Bai Song's heart, these were his cousin's praises to his highness.

At this moment, he smiled faintly and the stone hanging over his heart calmed down.

"Previously, my father was worried that you wouldn't be able to get along with His Highness, the Seventh Prince, but today, it seems that my cousin is relieved."

He thought that his little sister did not like the idea that her legs were weak, so he pretended not to understand her 'delicate' thoughts.

Looking at it now, it seemed more like his little sister had just begun to have a crush on him. The feelings were deep and he didn't know it.

But Gu Mingyan thought, so it turns out that his brother was afraid that he would be bullied by His Highness.

"His Highness has never bullied me. When I went to stay at the Residence, he even gave me a pretty good place to stay in. He was extremely good to me, so Cousin, you don't have to worry."

This brother-in-law is pretty good.

Bai Song only nodded his head: "Since that's the case, I will tell Father and Grandfather, how about we go and seek refuge with His Highness, the Seventh Prince?"

How could it be decided just by listening to his one-sided speech?

Gu Mingyan was still lost in thought, and had only accompanied her to the hall, where she was immediately dragged to eat by the two madams. The moment she heard them, her heart was filled with warmth and panic, as she was afraid that her domineering personality would disturb her two aunts.

On the other hand, Bai Song told her about her cousin's and Seventh Prince's mutual understanding.

Bai Feiyu's expression changed again and again, and became worried. "However, if Ming Yan were to step into this Overlord's House and cause trouble …"

"What are you saying, father?" Bai Song's father hurriedly went forward and greeted him, saying sternly, "If Ming Yan and His Highness from the Seventh Prince share the same thoughts, we don't need to submit ourselves to His Highness the crown prince."

"Big brother, but once we join a certain prince, our peaceful days will be over."

Second Uncle walked over cautiously. When he saw that his family and the two kids were getting along well, he could not harden his heart.

The few of them argued with each other, each having their own thoughts.

Bai Feiyu continued to quietly watch Gu Mingyan, and after pondering for a long time, he finally smashed his walking stick onto the ground, and waited for the room to become quiet before he slightly raised his hand: "Ming Yan."

Gu Mingyan quickly got up and welcomed them. He was pulled by his grandfather to sit by his side, looking at his uncles and cousin Bai Song. He then quickly bowed and called out to them, in exchange for the smiles of his three uncles.

"Do you and His Highness share a mutual understanding?" Bai Feiyu went straight to the point, and everyone held their breath.

He returned to the word 'love'.

Gu Mingyan only laughed lightly and shook his head: "Love misleads people, Ming Yan only believes in Your Highness' character."

"But you were praising him with every word just now, so you don't have a trace of selfishness in your heart?"

Bai Song asked again, but the few of them could see the change in her expression, as if she was in a daze.

But in the end, the blankness in her eyes was swept away and was replaced by an unfathomable coldness and loneliness.

"I don't know either." Gu Mingyan shook his head indifferently, and turned back to look at Bai Feiyu. "Grandfather doesn't need to care about Mingyan, Mingyan doesn't care about relationships, he just selfishly cares about himself."

If he were to be concerned about himself, he wouldn't have come to the manor.

Bai Feiyu's heart ached for his little granddaughter. He raised his hand to rub her shoulder, "In the future when you marry His Highness, do you have any grievances in your heart?"

"Of course there won't be any complaints." Gu Mingyan smiled lightly, and affectionately rubbed the arm that was holding Bai Feiyu.

Bai Feiyu was helpless as he smiled and told her to go play with his little sisters.

Bai Song's father stared at her back for a long time, and finally sighed softly. "What should I do …"

She thought that since she and the Seventh Prince were mutual in their love, she would naturally marry and have the Seventh Prince become his backer. This could be considered as protecting this little niece who had been stranded in the outside world for many years.

A few of them were frowning, when they saw Gu Mingyan running over eagerly.

Although she didn't know where the rest were at, she remembered that Big Sister Shuang Hua had said this morning that the Crown Prince Xiao Ze came over to rope them in mostly for Old Lady Xu.

If she could inform Grandfather about this matter, they would also know why the crown prince wanted to recruit him into National Duke's Mansion.

Carefully glancing at his three uncles, Gu Mingyan said in a low voice: "It's because Ming Yan's memory isn't good, and he forgot an extremely important matter. Grandfather and uncles, may we find a quiet place to discuss about it?"

Bai Feiyu brought his people to the study room. Only then did Gu Mingyan say: "Perhaps it is because of Mrs Xu, and the Crown Prince is trying to rope in the people from the National Duke's Mansion."

"But you also wanted me to find Lady Xu?" Bai Song suddenly thought of this matter.

"It's precisely because of this that the destruction of Seventh Prince's body is extremely important, and there are secrets hidden within them. Old Lady Xu is a craftsman who might have known of the secrets back then, so Her Highness wanted to borrow me to invite Mrs. Xu to the National Duke's Mansion. It could also be said to be reasonable …"

After he finished speaking, Gu Mingyan felt that the way his uncles looked at him had changed.

It didn't seem like he was looking at a cute and obedient niece, but more like he was looking at a cunning and deceitful scammer.

Clenching his fingers tightly, Gu Mingyan braced himself and said: "When I was staying in His Highness's Seventh Prince Palace, His Highness the Crown Prince came over once, and seemed to be testing the waters. He probably heard some news, and knew that Old Lady Xu knew the secret. I just happened to realize that National Duke's Mansion was not in the team, and was probably trying to use their intentions to win her over to their side, but in reality, they were looking for Grandma Xu. "

In that case, be it the Crown Prince or the Seventh Prince, all of them would be fine.

The two of them had the same thoughts. After coming here this time, they were once again able to keep the National Duke's Mansion in their pockets for their own use. On the other hand, they were also able to bring Grandma Xu back to unravel the secret.

Third Uncle then asked, "This secret …"

"This matter cannot be said. Mingyan only knows the gist of it. But Third Uncle should know that before His Highness Seventh Prince was injured and disappeared, the Seventh Prince Palace was once stolen.

Ever since Gu Mingyan returned to the Shengan, he had almost never lost contact with the Mountain River Diagram.

And she wasn't a curious person, so she still didn't know what stage she had reached when she had comprehended the Mountain River Diagram.

The entire hall was silent.

It was impossible to say what they were, and it was difficult to explain the details. It was hard to believe.

Furthermore, she bluntly stated that she had come for Mrs. Xu. She called her grandfather's expression 'changing again and again', and finally let out a soft sigh.

"Even if you grew up in the countryside, you have long since become one of these people in the Shengan."

Accompanied by this light sigh, Gu Mingyan was truly too ashamed to face the helplessness and regret in the eyes of his three uncles.

Her uncles treated her as their niece, and as her cousin, Bai Song seemed to have believed her the first time they met.

However, she treated their kindness as nothing. She didn't dare to stay any longer and hurriedly left.

Because of this matter, she had betrayed the kindness of others.
