He hurriedly waved his sleeve. “Alright, alright! I just wanted to remind him to be more careful next time. Who would have thought that Marquis Yongye would be so impetuous?”
Gu Yihan frowned and said to Ye Siming, “Go back. It’s getting late. If you don’t leave now, Bai Yi will think that I’ve done something to you.”
Ye Siming looked down at the child.
Gu Nuo’er looked up at him. On her exquisite snow-white skin, her eyes were curved and a cute smile appeared on her pink lips.
“Elder Brother Siming, see you tomorrow!”
Ye Siming pursed his thin lips. There seemed to be snow under his black eyes that had been melted by the spring sun.
He nodded at her before leaving with Chunshou.
After Ye Siming left, Gu Yihan carried Gu Nuo’er in his arms.
“Nuo’er, if anything happens to you, Father will cut those hidden guards into a thousand pieces!”
Gu Nuo’er blinked her watery eyes and smiled sweetly. “I’m fine, aren’t I?! Father, you have to keep a close eye on those people who were arrested this time and interrogate them well.”
The child said softly, “However, I suspect that the person who instructed them isn’t very smart either.”
Gu Yihan quickly asked, “Why do you say that?”
Gu Nuo’er’s small hands were behind her back like a little adult.
“Since the person behind this has the ability to abduct Gu Xinghan from the prison, it means that he wants Gu Xinghan to live. However, later on, he poisoned Gu Xinghan. This proves that letting Gu Xinghan escape was actually a smokescreen.
“The main reason must be that he’s afraid that Gu Xinghan will expose his ident.i.ty to us.
“But this person is really too stupid. If I were him, I would have killed Gu Xinghan to silence him when the fake prison guard delivered the food.”
The child shrugged. “After making such a big detour and failing to poison him, he’ll definitely be cautious for a period of time. However, as long as Gu Xinghan is in our hands, he’ll always feel that he’s stepping on the edge of a cliff and his life is on the line.”
“Therefore, Father, we’re not in a hurry. Evil people will always give themselves away.”
Gu Yihan’s eyes were as cold as his daughter’s watery eyes.
He chuckled. “After this incident, Gu Xinghan will definitely confess as soon as possible because he knows that only we can protect his life.”
The father and daughter looked at each other and couldn’t help but smile evilly.
Everything was under their control.
However, Gu Yihan quickly said, “Shall Father still get a few administrators from the Imperial Academy of Medicine to take your pulse?”
It was said that those hidden guards were all inflicted with strong poisons that could kill people in an instant.
Gu Yihan found out that his daughter had vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, but now, she was standing in front of him alive and kicking.
He was feeling some lingering fear.
However, Gu Nuo’er shook her head.
She blinked her watery eyes and whispered something to Gu Yihan.
“Father, actually, when I was unconscious, I saw an old grandpa.”
“I told the old grandpa that Father is still waiting for me to go home and I can’t leave yet. Therefore, the old grandpa sent me back!”
The child held onto her dress and spun around. “I’m really fine! Father, if you don’t believe me, take a look!”
Old grandpa?
Gu Yihan fell into deep thought.
Could it be the white-bearded old man he dreamed of the day Nuo’er was born?
Gu Yihan picked Gu Nuo’er up and said with a bright smile, “My daughter is indeed a lucky star. With the blessings of the heavens, your luck is greater!”
Soon, the news that Princess Yaoguang had been accidentally poisoned but was unharmed spread throughout the capital.
Not only was she not injured, but she also captured the fleeing sinner, Gu Xinghan, with Marquis Yongye.
At the same time, they also apprehended and brought back up some of the troublemakers.
Everyone sighed.
It turned out that apart from His Majesty, the little princess also had the heavens as her greatest backer.
In the end, everyone who wanted to harm her got into trouble.
And she wouldn’t die even if she was poisoned!
How blessed was she?!
For a moment, Gu Nuo’er’s Four Seasons Sweet Shop’s business became popular again.
Everyone thought that if they bought the pastries from the little princess’s shop, they would definitely be able to get some of her auspicious aura.
