Chapter 48: You Tell Me Why

In Le Anju, Xiao Yu'an, who didn't know that Gu Wanchao had woken up, was sitting in front of the study, holding a book in his hand, but his eyes were always holding the rice paper on the table.

He suddenly remembered that Gu Wanchao asked him to help her investigate the matter between the eldest princess and Princess Changning, and he helped her go to the princess's mansion to deliver a letter, scare Li Changning, and peek at the secret letters exchanged between Li Changning and Li Yu.

From beginning to end, Xiao Yu'an never asked Gu Wanchao, why did she, an eight-year-old child, investigate these two people who couldn't fight with her, and why did she do this?

Since Gu Wanchao fell unconscious, Xiao Yuan has been living in self-blame every day, and he always feels that it was he who told her those things that caused her to fall unconscious.

Xiao Yu'an forced himself not to think about these things anymore, he looked down at the rice paper that had been dyed with a brush, and raised his hand to throw it aside.

These days, Xiao Yu'an went to the Hanlin Academy to carry out the affairs of revision.

Gu Wanchao, who was almost in good health, also returned to the East Palace again to study with Princess Yimeng.

In the afternoon, Gu Wanchao, who had dispersed the hall, was really bored, and left the East Palace early, thinking about going back to the house to rest.

She was walking alone on the way out of the palace, but she saw Li Yu's figure in a trance.

Gu Wanchao almost thought that she was dazzled, she stood still, stared at Li Yu who was about to enter the palace in front of her, and looked at the familiar figure that could not be more familiar, Gu Wanchao finally determined that this person was Li Yu.

Although she now knows that Li Yu wants to kill herself, she still wants to ask Li Yu in person, why?

Thinking of this, Gu Wanchao followed Li Yu and followed her into the palace.

She watched Li Yu go to the queen's palace, because the previous emperor had already ordered that Gu Wanchao could enter and leave the harem freely, so she was now hanging around in the harem and no one cared about her.

She waited on the edge of the pond for an unknown amount of time, and Li Yu, who entered the queen's bedroom, did not come out for a long time, and Gu Wanchao couldn't wait for a long time, and had the idea of leaving.

Just now, she followed her with a hot brain, but after staying here for a long time, she suddenly realized that she was now Gu Wanchao, not Murong Zhao, and she was not qualified to question why Li Yu killed Murong Zhao.

After thinking about it, Gu Wanchao stood up and raised his feet to leave.

At the moment when she was about to leave, a voice belonging to Li Yu suddenly broke into her mind.

[It wouldn't be good if someone found out. 】

Listening to this heart, Gu Wan looked left and right for a long time, but she still didn't see Li Yu's figure, so she walked towards the rockery behind her.

Originally, Gu Wanchao, who just wanted to try his luck, tiptoed to the rockery, which was layered on top of each other, and Gu Wanchao was looking for it along the stone road.

"I told you to pay attention on weekdays, this is the palace, if others see it, you and I can't eat and walk around." Li Yu's voice sounded in Gu Wanchao's ears again.

Gu Wanchao stood still and followed the prestige, but in the next second, she wished that she had never followed Li Yu to the harem today.

Because she saw Li Yu hugging a strange man.

"Didn't I miss you, don't worry, I checked around when I came, no one, no one will find out." The man held Li Yu in his arms and assured Li Yu that no one would be able to see them.

Gu Wanchao covered his mouth at this time, and tears fell down again.

She remembered the note that Xiao Yu'an had given her in the photo said that he had found the eldest princess behaving intimately with a strange man.

She couldn't believe what Xiao Yu'an said, she would rather be fake, but now the picture in front of her made her feel like a thunderbolt from the sky, standing in place, she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

After the two were intimate for a while, Li Yu, who was really worried about being discovered, urged Gorou to leave, and Gu Wanchao at this time had already reacted and left here cautiously.

At the moment when Li Yu and Wulang separated, her tall image of her mother in Gu Wanchao's heart completely collapsed, and from that moment on, she told herself that from now on, she was Gu Wanchao, and Liu was her mother.

Gu Wanchao dragged her heavy body back to the house, this time she didn't feel sad about Li Yu's affairs again, she tried her best to convince herself.

About two days later, Xiao Yu'an, who hadn't seen Gu Wanchao for a long time, suddenly saw Gu Wanchao's figure, and he almost couldn't believe his eyes.

"When did you wake up?"

When Gu Wanchao was unconscious, he wanted to go to Gu Mansion again several times to see her situation, but after all, he was a foreign man, and he was really not suitable for always appearing in a woman's bedroom, so he could only give up.

These days, he has either stayed in Hanlin Courtyard or in Le'anju, and he doesn't know that Gu Wanchao has woken up.

"It's been a few days, and my grandfather asked me to stay in the house to recuperate after waking up earlier, and I only returned to the palace yesterday to study." Gu Wanchao told Xiao Yu'an when he woke up.

Hearing this, Xiao Yu'an nodded, "In this case, you are recovering from a serious illness, so you still have to pay more attention to rest." Let's get home early. ”

After speaking, Xiao Yu'an raised his feet and was about to leave, Gu Wanchao looked at his back, and suddenly called him again, "Xiao Yu'an." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yu'an stopped and looked at Gu Wanchao suspiciously, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Can you do me another favor?"

"What's the busy?" Xiao Yu'an sensed that what Gu Wanchao was going to say was related to what Gu Wanchao had just checked before.

"I want you to help me find out, eldest princess, why did you just kill her daughter Murong Zhao by someone else."

As expected, Gu Wanchao's words were roughly the same as what he guessed.

"Gu Wanchao, I asked you before, why did you ask me to help you do these things, you didn't give me an answer at that time, I thought, if you don't want to say it, forget it, but now I want to ask you again, why do you want me to help you do these things?"

"Can I choose not to say it?" Gu Wanchao really didn't know what to do, Xiao Yu'an said his purpose in investigating this matter.

"No, I didn't ask last time, after helping you find out what you wanted, you got seriously ill, if you still want me to help you this time, you have to tell me why, how did Murong Zhao die and why is it so important to you?"

Xiao Yu'an now wants to exchange the truth that Gu Wanchao wants to know for Gu Wanchao's truth.

"Sister Murong Zhao had a relationship with me before, she was a very good person, and she was very good to me, but she lost her life because she accompanied Princess Changning to Khitan to make peace, I just want to find out the truth, I don't want her to die in vain." Gu Wanchao casually told a lie.
