1437 To the Imperial Tombs 2
Chaoyan was a very strong and smart person, but even if that was the case, Zhou Huaijin still believed that she was a woman who needed protection and adoration. She should not be pushed to the frontline in this chaotic moment so that she could bear everything.
Was it really a good thing for someone to bee the Phoenix Girl?
Zhou Huaijin did not think so.
As he thought about this, Zhou Huaijin gripped Gu Chaoyan’s hands, asking her quietly. “Are you really going?”
!!
“…”
“I will protect you, no matter whether you are the Phoenix Girl!” Zhou Huaijin said.
Gu Chaoyan had been walking, but paused hearing Zhou Huaijin’s sudden words. She looked at this tall man in front of her with a slightly raised head. They stared at each other for a while.
Everyone was calculating and finding out what they could benefit from the Phoenix Girl.
Gu Chaoyan’s family, the so-called Gu Family, were already making plans for her. Only one person was worried about the pressure and harm that might be brought to her rather than the benefits he might get.
Zhou Huaijin had always been like this.
She was lucky to feel love and care in this life. She never had the chance to feel either of these in her previous life as a killer. Her own family was calculating against her whilst this man was worried about her, which made her feel so happy.
“Trust me,” Gu Chaoyan said gently to Zhou Huaijin with a pair of determined eyes.
Zhou Huaijin nodded.
He led her forward in the snow, onto the wagon that would bring them to the imperial tombs.
People filled the whole imperial tombs. The officers and ministers, as well as the imperial family were all there, waiting.
Everyone was looking at Gu Chaoyan as she arrived.
They did not care which of the two ladies of the Gu Family would be the Phoenix Girl, but if the Phoenix Girl turned out to be Gu Chaoyan, there would be chaos in the capital again.
They were all staring at Gu Chaoyan with different looks. Some hoped that she was the one. Some did not.
Gu Chaoyan did not care about them. She just continued forward.
The King adjusted his expression to look as mild as possible, but when he saw Gu Chaoyan, his face changed once again.
He did not want Gu Chaoyan to be the Phoenix Girl. Anyone else would do.
Gu Chaoyan was annoying and had no way to be controlled. And she was his Eighth Son’s future Princess Consort. She should not be the Phoenix Girl!
He really hoped that she was not the Phoenix Girl.
Zhou Huailing turned to Gu Zhenkang when he saw Gu Chaoyan. He deeply regretted it. He should not have just focused on Gu Ruxue. He should have married both of the sisters, so that everything would go well now.
With his eyes closed, he took a deep breath.
Only in this way could he calm himself down.
“Elder Miss Gu, go and have a try,” Zhou Huailing said.
Gu Chaoyan looked at the door to enchantment, took a few steps forward and put her hands on the magical ball at the door to enchantment.
Instantly…
The door to enchantment was opened, and light shone through brightly!
