Chapter 1777: Dali Is the Duke’s ManEditor: Henyee Translations

Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan could not stop him in time. Then, they saw someone walk in from outside.

That person entered the study and bowed to Yi Zilan before looking up at Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong.

The moment he looked up, Gu Yundong was stunned. The corners of her mouth twitched violently.

"Da... Dali?"

"That’s me." Dali smiled and nodded. "Greetings, Princess, Prince."

Gu Yundong pointed at him, then at Yi Zilan, then at him. After a while, she asked uncertainly, "Don’t tell me that you’re Yi Zilan’s man?"

"Yes, I’m indeed His Highness’s man."

Gu Yundong was speechless. She turned to look at Shao Qingyuan.

The latter narrowed his eyes. "So, it was Yi Zilan’s idea for you to sneak into the marquis family and attack Marquis Pingnan? Or rather, it was the higher-ups’ idea?"

Everyone present knew who he was referring to.

Dali smiled but did not speak. His tacit agreement made Gu Yundong’s pupils constrict slightly.

She quickly looked at Yi Zilan and said, "Since this Dali is your man, it means that we didn’t save the wrong person. It’s a good thing. I think you still have something to do. Why don’t we call it a day? I won’t keep you for dinner. That’s all. Send the guests off."

Shao Qingyuan immediately stood up and said to Yi Zilan, "Let’s go."

Yi Zilan: "..."

Could this couple change their attitude any faster?

He pursed his lips and continued to sit there calmly. He reached out for a cup of tea and took a sip. He said very comfortably, "What’s the hurry? Isn’t it still early? Didn’t you say that you wanted to know what I was busy with in the Xuanhe Prefecture? I haven’t said anything yet. How can I leave?"

"There’s no need. We don’t want to know at all." Gu Yundong’s face was serious. "Since you like to stay here, we’ll leave. To be honest, it’s been a long day. We need to rest early."

Shao Qingyuan nodded and escorted Gu Yundong out.

Yi Zilan was so angry that he laughed. This couple reacted quite quickly.

It was just that this expression of not wanting to get involved and trying to immediately cut ties was too ugly.

He snorted coldly and said, "Marquis Pingnan has the intention to rebel. I’m here to find evidence of his crimes."

Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan stopped in their tracks. She slapped her forehead and exhaled heavily.

Shao Qingyuan’s face was also dark as he said, "Your Highness, you’ve worked hard."

"It’s indeed quite tough, so you have to help me. After all, this Xuanhe Prefecture is your territory."

Gu Yundong chuckled. She knew that it was not easy to be a princess.

She said to Shao Qingyuan with a blank expression, "Husband, my ears suddenly buzzed just now. I didn’t hear anything. I don’t know what’s wrong. I feel so serious."

"You can’t hear anything? It’s indeed very serious. Let’s go back to the room first. I’ll prescribe some medicine for you later."

As the two of them spoke, they walked out. Yi Zilan gritted her teeth and suddenly turned to look at their backs. "Alright, leave. Don’t regret it after you leave. In any case, after the marquis family is confiscated, the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus can only be kept in the national treasury."

Gu Yundong suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned around to glare at him. "The Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus is ours. Even if the marquis family is confiscated, it belongs to me."
