Highly Skilled Doctor: My Lord Wife - C245
Gu Yannan had been a name that he had heard from the very beginning. Whether it was Imperial Father, Grandmother, or even some of the palace maids and eunuchs, they had all slowly grown up before finally understanding what this name implied. However, as a small prince, and one that did not even have the backing of a mufei, he had met with an outsider.
The first time he saw Gu Yinian, he was already six or seven years old.
Gu Yinian was kneeling at the entrance of the palace, not saying a single word. His hair was a mess, and he had a long beard. He looked like he had fallen into an unspeakable state.
This was the first time he saw such a destitute person. At that time, he was shocked.
Was this person in front of them the person that everyone was yearning for? No matter if it was my royal father or my grandmother, are they both people who praised me? He didn’t feel anything different from this person. On the contrary, he felt that this person looked to be in dire straits.
Of course, he was only a child back then. Even if he was a little wiser than an ordinary child, he was still only a little wiser than an ordinary child.
In the palace, most of the children of this age were accompanied by countless others. With every step, there was a lot of people following. He was able to shake off those around him and secretly climb up the city wall to take a look at the people he grew up with.
Even so, it was not an easy task.
However …
He did not understand how this person was different.
Yes, I don’t understand.
Many years later, when he slowly grew up and recalled the scenes from back then, he slowly understood that Gu Yan Nian was probably not as cold and indifferent as he appeared on the surface, right?
That’s right, how could he be as indifferent as he appeared to be?
The dead man was Princess Anping, the emperor’s sister, the empress dowager’s daughter.
He had forgotten how long he had been there, and then … Then, the god-like existence in his heart slowly landed on the ground, turning into a group of people just like ordinary people. But… In his heart, however, a thought that he had never dared to think of appeared.
Yes, although he had always heard this name before, in his heart, this name was like the existence of a god. He could only place it deeply in his heart and admire it. However, when he saw the person kneeling outside the palace door, he discovered that he was actually only an ordinary person. He did not have three heads and six arms, and he even looked to be in such a state.
The myth in his heart slowly shattered.
His heart slowly began to ferment. This one possibility …
That was …
Since he is just an ordinary person, since he can help royal father, why can’t he help me?
Yes, that was his thought at the time.
When he was very young, he had heard many stories about royal father. Back then, royal father was not a favoured prince, and the empress dowager was merely an unfavoured concubine. She wasn’t even considered a concubine. But later on, he got into that position, and was even more powerful than all those with high status …
If he could, why couldn’t he?
He forgot when he had such a thought, but he was very clear that what he wanted to do was not a simple matter. If others knew about this, it would be a disaster for him.
So he didn’t say anything, and only started to curry favor with his royal father, and approached him.
No matter who it was, they would never think that even Royal Father would not know the reason why he was so close to her. The reason she wanted to curry favor with him wasn’t because she wanted to gain any benefits from him. The reason why she wanted to curry favor with him was because she wanted to stay by his side often, and naturally not because of him.
Instead … It was for Gu Yinian.
Yes, saying it out loud was really funny. The reason why he fawned over royal father was to find an opportunity to get close to Gu Yinian.
He believed that no one would be able to think of such a goal.
Even the high and mighty royal father would definitely not think of such a thing.
He was the exalted emperor! The reason why he tried to curry favor with him was naturally to get his favor, reward, or other ulterior motives. However, all of these reasons would definitely surround him. Unfortunately … His goal was really not to get the rewards from royal father, and even more so not to get anything else.
It was only because he could stay by his royal father’s side that he could see Gu Yinian and interact with him.
He had already thought of asking Gu Yannan to help him. Being that close to him was the most important goal.
It had to be said that he was very smart, starting to show it when he was very young.
This kind of intelligence was something that ordinary people would not understand.
Indeed, everything was as he expected. No one discovered his true purpose, even though he had been severely cursed or even beaten several times in the process. However, this sort of thing was very normal in the Imperial Palace. After all, the Emperor had so many women, so naturally, he had many children. He was also very clear on the fact that his status couldn’t be compared to those people who had such a favoured mufei, so the only thing he could do was to remain silent.
Besides, it wasn’t the first time he had been beaten since he was young, so he didn’t mind if he got used to it after he got used to it.
And he wasn’t the kind of person who would obediently stay silent after being beaten up by someone.
When he was very young, he knew that if he could not beat the others, then he would obediently endure them. Then, he would remember all of these and find a chance to take revenge, and at that time, there would be time for him to take revenge. He had always silently placed this kind of matter in his heart, and then found an opportunity to poke his father in the face.
Although royal father will not do anything to them, but …
He knew clearly in his heart that a small black dot might not be of much use, but what if it was just a countless number of small black dots?
He slowly erased the impression his father had of those people. Although this was a very difficult process, he had always been persisting on his own; he believed that as long as he continued to persevere, he would definitely succeed.
After all these years, how difficult was it for a young man like him to live in this gloomy palace? Other people had mothers to take care of them, but he didn’t. Since he was young, he had only been himself, which was why he learned a lot earlier. During this process, he slowly learned how to be patient. What he lacked the most was patience. If he didn’t achieve two days in one day, then three days in two days. If he persevered like this for a long time, then there would be a day.
Sure enough, under his unremitting persistence, royal father gradually lost patience with those people, and he felt that his days naturally became better.
As he grew older, everything seemed to change in the right direction.
However …
However, there was only one thing that made him at a loss. After so many years, nothing had changed at all.
And this was none other than — Gu Yinian!
Yes, that year, when he was certain that he would have to pull Gu Yinian over to his side for his own use, he had thought of a way to curry favor with his royal father and gain more opportunities to stay by his side. That way, he could naturally meet Gu Yannan. In front of Gu Yan Nian, he was also very well-behaved, trying his best to show his best.
After so many years, even royal father couldn’t help but praise him.
But only Gu Yinian acted as if he hadn’t even seen him for ten years. No matter what he did or how he said it, he was always cold and indifferent.
Every time he felt that he had finally improved a bit, the next day would bring him a new blow. This blow was nothing more than Gu Yinian regaining a very cold and indifferent appearance. Every time he saw him, he would act as if it was the first time he had seen him, polite and distant …
This situation had persisted for a long time and caused him to be conflicted for quite some time.
As he slowly grew older, he began to have the opportunity to freely enter and leave the palace.
When he was able to emerge from the high palace walls, the first place she went was to the Gu Prince’s estate.
Yes, his heart had missed the Duke Gu Palace for a long time, but Gu Yinian had only treated him like an ordinary prince. There hadn’t been the slightest bit of difference. Back then, his heart had been filled with rage. After all these years, there was nothing that he couldn’t do, and there was no one that he couldn’t rope in.
Only this Gu Yinian seemed to be innately against him. No matter how much time and effort he spent, it was as if he didn’t see this person at all.
If a normal person encountered such a situation, they would naturally give up. However, he was different. He clearly understood the importance of Gu Yinian, so he naturally wouldn’t give up so easily. Since Gu Yan Nian couldn’t get through, there was always a way. As long as it was a living person, there would be advantages and disadvantages on his body. As long as this weakness was found, everything else would be easy to handle.
So he searched for a long time because he wanted to find Gu Yinian’s weakness.
However …
Gu Yinian was actually this clean.
Ever since the death of Princess Anping, he had never broken another string.
His only child was the son of the concubine who gave him birth. Then, his gaze fell upon the so-called adopted daughter, who had been brought back by Gu Yinian to be raised by him. It had to be said that the main reason why he noticed that girl was because of her face.
It was a very beautiful face, almost peerless.
He quickly wondered how beautiful her mother would be if she gave birth to a girl with such a beautiful face.
Many people said that Princess Anping was a rare and peerless beauty. Of course, he had never seen her in person before. He had only seen her occasionally in the portrait. He couldn’t help but admit that she was indeed a very beautiful woman. But…
A man who had not broken a string for so many years and even had a girl like that raise him in his home, could it be that this girl had nothing to do with him at all?
No matter what others said, he didn’t believe them.
However, he had secretly investigated many times but still couldn’t find the truth behind this matter. However, he was still unwilling to believe that Gu Yan Nian was still alive. If this girl really had nothing to do with him, then why did he raise her in the Prince’s Mansion? And all these years, he had relied on his son for all the benefits.
Of course, if it was in an ordinary family, a single bastard couldn’t compare to them, but in the Gu family, it was different.
Gu Yan Nian hadn’t had a second son ever since Princess Anping had died. He was the only son in the clan, and even if he was just a concubine, he still had a very high status.
And why would an adopted daughter enjoy such treatment?
Of course, this wasn’t the worst case scenario. If someone said that Gu Yannan was a kind-hearted person, that was why he treated his daughter with equal treatment. That was why he treated her like his son.
But… There were naturally some secrets within.
Others might never know, but he was different. As a prince, he could see things that others couldn’t, and he could hear things that others couldn’t.
This included the attitude of Princess Anping towards his adopted daughter.
It was said that this adopted daughter had been brought in under the banner of Princess Anping. It was said that Princess Anping had just lost her daughter, and her entire body had collapsed. Gu Yinian, who had felt heartache for Princess Anping, had brought a daughter from his family and brought her home to be raised by Princess Anping, hoping to divert her attention.
Of course, if he really did die like that, then there was nothing to say. He might even praise the Prince for loving his wife so much.
However … It was said that Princess Anping had not even glanced at this little girl and had been directly thrown away. It was Gu Yinian who had stopped her from doing so and allowed her to stay in the Prince’s Mansion. However, she had never been acknowledged by Princess Anping.
Later on, when Princess Anping left, everyone said that she was the adopted daughter of the princess, but in reality, only a few of the parties involved knew clearly that — Princess Anping had never acknowledged her existence!
If Gu Yinian really was someone who doted on his wife, then since his wife didn’t like him, then he should naturally send him back. But why did he continue to stay at home? And they even want to use the title of princess in the outside world?
Ordinary people wouldn’t know such private possibilities, but he was different. He had lived in the palace since he was young, so he was able to tell at a glance what was strange about the director’s words. As long as this girl was raised under the name of Princess Anping, it didn’t matter whether she was brought back or not. Her identity was extraordinary.
Princess Anping was the imperial concubine of Gu Yinian, and the children under her name were naturally born to her. Even if they weren’t her own children, they would still be the same.
In other words, this Gu Yinian was doing this on purpose. All of the things that he had done was just to find a reasonable, and not a low, status for this girl!
He was a smart person, and was able to see the difference in Gu Yan Nian at first glance when he was very young. Thus, he tried his best to approach Gu Yan Nian. Since he saw the peculiarity in Gu Yan Nian’s actions, he naturally wouldn’t miss it.
Compared to getting close to Gu Yinian, it was much easier. She was just a little girl. As long as he showed up a few more times, it would be enough for her to be angry. And he had never been an impulsive person, although he might have realized that there was something he didn’t know and that he might be able to gain some benefits from it. However, he was not in a hurry to make a move. First of all, without knowing exactly what the relationship between this woman and Gu Yinian was, he would not act rashly, considering her position in his heart.
Gu Yinian’s daughter, whether she was his adopted daughter or his own daughter, would never become his side wife.
As for his main wife …
Hehe, then we’ll have to see if we have the ability to do so.
He wanted to test if this woman had a brain. For some women, just being pretty was enough for some, but to become his wife, I’m not someone who can just be pretty. If I want to be his wife, other than being pretty, I have to be smart.
Smart enough.
Thus, he wanted to test this woman. Of course, he still had his own selfish motives.
That was, he wanted to see if this woman would obediently listen to his words. Although she was the adopted daughter of Gu Yinian, it would be useless if she didn’t obediently listen to his words.
He hadn’t thought that his daughter would be so obedient. Not only that, but she was also so ruthless and merciless that she would really attack Gu Yinian’s daughter. From the looks of it, she really seemed like she wanted to kill him. However, he didn’t really want to kill her. He just wanted to scare her a little.
Therefore, he just stood to the side to watch the commotion, waiting for the most suitable opportunity to take action. At that time, he would save her.
She would be grateful to him.
Even if she was a bit ugly, she was Gu Yinian’s daughter after all …
However, he did not expect that everything had been planned by him. However … But this time, he had made a mistake …
Then he suddenly realized that this seemingly ugly girl was not as mindless as he thought.
Not only did she have a brain, she was also very intelligent. This knowledge caused his heart to skip a beat …
However, at this point, he could only continue.
Unfortunately …
He went through everything in his mind, from the beginning when he first realized it to now …
He had to admit that although he was unwilling to admit it, he still had to admit that this girl was indeed a very smart person.
And she was far smarter than he thought.
However …
“Listen up, I am very clear about what happened that year.” I know you’re not afraid of death, and you have a tough temper, but… Hehe, where are your family? This is a crime that involves nine families… “Think about it clearly …”
“You … You… “Fine, I’ll count it as you being ruthless!” Embroidery stared coldly at Xuanyuan Jing, her eyes filled with rage. She had not expected that she would actually fall into a trap, much less that he would actually treat her in such a manner. However, things had already come to this, and he could no longer control himself. Everything that had happened back then could no longer be redeemed. Furthermore … Even if it could be saved, he would have done it after all. After all … After all, he was the one who was risking his life following him, but he … However, in his heart … “He also received his mother’s promise, otherwise …” As long as she becomes your woman, everything you want will come true. ” Taking a deep breath, Embroidery coldly said. Her eyes flashed with a trace of coldness. I can’t blame her … If you want to blame something, blame it…
