447 It Was All Very New

This young lady is really evil!

She has only recently arrived in the capital and is already sowing discord among us. Who knows what will happen in the future?

No! I can’t let a young lady ruin my relationship with Second Brother, right?

He could not let An Jiuyue stay in the Prince Zhan Yun Residence forever. He had to think of a way to get rid of her. Gong Cheng fell into deep thought.

Is there any way to take An Jiuyue away from the Prince Zhan Yun Residence?

What if I do something? That won’t do. If Second Brother finds out, he’ll kill me! The best solution is to have Second Brother chase her away personally.

But An Jiuyue has bewitched Second Brother. Why would he chase her away? Unless there is a new lady—better, gentler, and more trustworthy—to replace An Jiuyue…

Gong Cheng took a deep breath and glanced at Yu Yan’er.

Although Yu Yan’er was not his biological cousin, she was the eldest daughter of the Grand Preceptor Residence, and the Gong family supported her. Moreover, she had a pleasant personality and was always very proper.

A lady like her was the perfect match for his brother.

He had to think of a way to let his brother know how good Yu Yan’er was. That way, he would be able to shift his attention from An Jiuyue to Yu Yan’er.

“How…” he muttered softly, unable to think of an idea.

Now that his second brother was ignoring him, he would not listen to anything he said. He had to make him realize that An Jiuyue was not a good match for him.

He took a deep breath and looked at the two children sitting on the boat, slowly peeling the lotus seeds.

These two children have nothing to do with An Jiuyue, right? They’re also unrelated to Second Brother. Maybe I can make use of them?

It seemed feasible to him. The two children had nothing to do with anyone. He would not feel guilty even if something happened.

“Mother, the lotus flowers here are so beautiful.” Qian Yizheng pointed at a lotus flower beside him.

The lotus flowers here differed from those in his mother’s space. They had two different colors, and the stamens inside were yellow.

Although they were not as beautiful as the lotus flowers in the space, he had never seen them before. It was all very new to him.

“This lotus flower is the same as the one Aunt Yiyun taught me to make. I made a few, but I didn’t bring them out.”

“Typical lotus flowers are of this color.”

An Jiuyue carried Qian Yizheng and brought him closer to the lotus flowers. She wanted to teach them about lotus flowers.

“Come, Rong’er, come here too. I’ll tell you…”

Gong Cheng pursed his lips as he watched An Jiuyue tell the two children about the lotus flower.

This woman is very scheming! She knows that my brother feels responsible for the two children. She must have used this to tightly grasp Qian Jiyun in her palm, right?

That must be it! I won’t let this woman have her way!

And what’s with these little two things? They live off my brother, but they’re not close to him and insist on being so close to a woman who has nothing to do with them. Let’s see if An Jiuyue will sell them off in the future!

He glared at the two children angrily!

“Gong Liu, what are you thinking about?”
