Chapter 75 CFV Ch.75 Close (3)
Gu Zhe Zhi smiled warmly, and said: “ I heard that you, my sister, made something quite interesting.”
Something interesting? Qin Jiu froze for a moment, is he talking about the Rubiq’s cube that she made for Gu Zheng?
Hearing her golden patron’s small request, Qin Jiu hurriedly replied: “Tomorrow......I will ask someone to send the cube to you.”
Both of them burst into laughter, there was an unspeakable harmony between them.
The people around them including the emperor and Xin An looked at them subtly, the emperor raised his eyebrows.
Most of the noble ladies there had heard the gossip about Qin Jiu greeting the third prince as big brother at the chanting event. However, they were doubted that it was true, as the both of them were from totally different worlds, it wasn’t possible for them to be so close.
Some of them were looking at Gu Zhe Zhi, and some were secretly peeping at the teenager that was standing on the emperor’s left. Some of them had correctly guessed his identity.
The emperor has not seen him angry before, sometimes the smile of Gu Zhe Zhi’s face felt like a mask. However, seeing how he treated Qin Jiu, the emperor realised that his “mask” seemed to have loosened, an idea popped into the emperor’s mind.
Three days ago, the emperor received a letter from Duke Duan.
In the letter, Duke Duan stated that he would thoroughly investigate the matter surrounding Gu Zhe Zhi’s assasination. If it was really done by the prince of Duke Duan, Gu Cheng Zhi, he would definitely inform Gu Zhe Zhi.
On the other hand, Duke Duan had also asked the emperor to arrange a marriage for Gu Zhe Zhi.
By year end, Gu Zhe Zhi would be 20 years old. He should have been married long ago, but firstly, he refused to; Secondly, Duke Duan was placed in a difficult position to arrange for Gu Zhe Zhi’s marriage.
At that time, the eldest son of Duke Duan, Gu Cheng Zhi has yet to be honored as crown prince, and his eldest daughter in law was just a lady from an ordinary fourth grade officer’s family.
If he picked a wife that was of a higher status for Gu Zhe Zhi, he was afraid it would intensify the conflict between the brothers, and would cause disharmony between the sisters-in-laws.
However, if he had to compare between the two, Gu Zhe Zhi as the duke’s eldest sons, a wife from an ordinary fourth grade officer’s family wasn’t worthy of his identity.
Because of this, Gu Zhe Zhi wasn’t married at the age of 20 yet. A crown prince at his age should already have 2 to 3 children, and Duke Duan was getting anxious.
On the contrary, Gu Zhe Zhi was calm about his marriage, in desperation, Duke Duan sought help from the emperor.
