The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 808

Chapter 808: Princess 375 (third update)

Gu Changqing’s reaction was the same as Gu Chengfeng’s, which was not surprising. After all, the scandal of Empress Jing stealing and burning the imperial edict had caused a huge stir back in the day. Although the Emperor managed to suppress the news, whispers had leaked among the noble families long before.

If Empress Jing had an imperial edict in her possession, the only one Gu Changqing could think of was that very edict.

Gu Changqing said, "Leave the matter of the imperial edict to me. Don’t act rashly. It’s important to deal with her, but..."

Your safety is more important.

Such mushy words were not something Gu Changqing could bring himself to say outright.

The night wind was a bit strong, and a tuft of Gu Jiao’s hair stubbornly stuck up on top of her head.

Gu Changqing raised his hand and gently pressed down the tuft of her hair. As soon as he let go, it sprang back up defiantly!

Gu Changqing suddenly felt like laughing.

He thought of Gu Yan. They truly were twin - even the stubborn tuft of hair on their heads was the same.

He gently rubbed the top of her head, "I’ll take you back."

Gu Jiao: "Oh."

Gu Changqing had Gu Jiao leave the Marquis Residence through the main gate this time. He had a carriage prepared for her, having her sit inside, and they left the Dignified Peace Marquis Residence with full propriety.

The carriage stopped in Bishui Alley.

"You go inside first," Gu Changqing told Gu Jiao.

Suppressing the impulse to steal the imperial edict, Gu Jiao sluggishly entered the house.

Gu Changqing went over to the old Libationer’s place.

The old Libationer was checking the kitchen for sugar-preserves candied fruit. Yes, the candied fruit for his aunt were all personally made by the old Libationer! The taste was better than what you could find on the market! More importantly, they were lower in sugar and healthier!
