Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 751: Discussion

“We can try to find someone that looks like Princess Xunyang based on the portrait, and she can be dressed and wear the makeup based on the portrait. Also, when the Prince takes her away, she is always under the red cover, so it will not be revealed until they reach the country. And even if the Prince has some confusion, they would have already arrived in the North Qi Land, and he can’t just start a war with us, just because that person has a different look from the portrait, right? The Saint Divine Land is a powerful land, and he needs to weigh his decision,” Princess Xunyang said calmly.

When the King heard the idea, he found that the idea made sense, and that it was the best solution for the moment. However, it was a bit difficult to do.

It would be very strange if they suddenly wanted to find some other replacement at the moment.

The King thought for a while and said, “Oh yes, we can organize the selection of new girls, and we can take the opportunity of finding someone similar to Xunyang. Also, selection of new girls is a very busy event which might keep the Prince for a longer time.”

When the selection of new girls was mentioned, Honored Princess Jing had a terrible look on her face.

She was just coming up with an idea of finding someone, but she never thought about letting the King select new girls!

She was still the beautiful one among all the old women in the court, but when the new and young girls arrived, she would be overshadowed completely. Besides, whether or not Lord Ling was going to be the heir had not been settled yet.

Honored Princess Jing was not very pleased, but the King did not notice a thing. Instead, he told De Fu to get down to the business of the selection.

Seeing that it was getting late, the King said, “It is getting late, Honored Princess Jing, you can leave and take a break.”

Honored Princess Jing answered with a small voice and left unhappily.

The King, at the moment, looked quite relaxed. The most annoying trouble was going to be solved, he believed.

***

The following day. At Gu Chaoyan’s mansion.

The King did not seem to be troubled by anything else, when they successfully solved the issue of Xunyang. So Gu Chaoyan had been talking about the clinic with Xiu Jie these last two days, thus getting up early.

She had asked Xiu Jie to come to her when Qing hurried over. “Elder Miss, the Old Master of the Gu Mansion is here.”

Hearing the title of the Old Master of the Gu Mansion… Gu Chaoyan had been confused and wondered who that was. A long while later, Gu Chaoyan suddenly remembered that it was Gu Zhenkang…

“What is he doing here?” Gu Chaoyan asked, frowning.

They had not spoken with each other since she was driven out of the mansion. He had been guarded by his Pheonix Girl all day long and he was never reminded of Gu Chaoyan at all. So what was he doing here?

Qing shook her head. “He just said that it is something of importance, and you will regret it if you don’t see him now.”

Qing did not drive the man away, because of what he said.

Although the Old Master and Elder Miss had cut off their family bond, Qing passed on the message discreetly, since the deceased Ms. Lin and their past were crossed.

Gu Chaoyan took a sip of the tea.

“Let him in.” Gu Chaoyan answered calmly.

Qing nodded and went to fetch the man.

Xiu Jie followed too, feeling unassured.

Gu Zhenkang soon came to Gu Chaoyan. He had been a very timid and cowardly man, but now he seemed quite arrogant. He sat down in front of Gu Chaoyan directly and said, “I have something to discuss with you today..”
