Ms. Doctor Divine - Chapter 1428 - 1428 Not Third Lady 2
1428 Not Third Lady 2
When Destiny Monk was done speaking… no one from the imperial family had any reactions. They were busy thinking about their own interests.
However, every officer and minister below sighed. Whether it was the Crown Prince Consort or the Third Lady it would be the same for them – the Crown Prince won and the Gu Family won. And what they needed to do was to suck up to the Crown Prince and the Gu Family. Neither of which would be a good thing for them.
However, if Lady Chaoyan was the Phoenix Girl…
Things were different. She was engaged to Lord Huai.
Lord Huai might obtain some benefits from this point.
It was quite a lot of fun to see the Crown Prince and Lord Huai fighting with each other.
So it made those ministers and officers more relaxed. They could just take a side when either of them offered some interests that might benefit them.
Those people exchanged looks with each other and understood what they should do. Some inexperienced ones even smiled at this situation.
When Destiny Monk was done with the arrangement for the next day…
People started to leave the imperial tombs.
The King was still making plans in disbelief. He did not even have time to place an order for the next day.
Since he had no order to give, they all dismissed.
Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin walked downhill with the rest of the ministers and officers.
Gu Chaoyan showed no expression on her face. She looked calm and totally composed.
Zhou Huaijin had neither become happy or unhappy because of this unexpected news.
However…
As they walked downhill, a few ministers passed by Zhou Huaijin and started to suck up to him. To that, Zhou Huaijin just responded with a single nod.
Zhou Huailing became extremely annoyed as he saw what was going on.
“How ridiculous!” Zhou Huailing snapped. “The Phoenix Girl is not yet settled, and yet some people are already trying to suck up to the candidate. I am still here!”
Zhou Huailing did not sound as angry as he looked.
Junyi was, after all, calmer than him. He could not accept the result, but he soon adjusted himself, trying to figure out what he could do so that he could maximize his own interests.
He interrupted the Crown Prince who was still standing at the imperial tombs. “Crown Prince, you had a bad sleep yesterday, so let’s go back to the mansion for a longer break. The door to enchantment won’t be opened until tomorrow.”
He even gave him a few suggestions about his expression.
Zhou Huailing swallowed down the words he wanted to snap out.
Most of the people here at the imperial tombs were still working for his father. If the words were spoken wrongfully, he might get himself into bigger trouble.
“Let’s leave!” Zhou Huailing snapped, ready to leave the imperial tombs.
His followers did the same.
Seeing that, Gu Xiuying followed. “Crown Prince, I am still here. Let me leave with you!”
When the Gu Family were leaving, she did not join them. She wanted to wait for the Crown Prince to keep him company. He had forgotten about her existence because he was busy with something, so she had to remind him herself.
