    As soon as she heard the word “substitute”, Madam Wang’s heart trembled like someone was beating a drum.


    If it was before the new year, she wouldn’t have known what this word meant… No, she didn’t know now either. However, she was certain that this matter was extremely important.


    Otherwise, Madam Gu wouldn’t have behaved like that in the ancestral hall that day and wouldn ‘t have been controlled by Gu Yanfei!


    Bang! Bang! Bang!


    Her heart was beating faster and faster, almost jumping into her throat.


    After that day , Madam Wang repeatedly thought about this matter. Based on her understanding of Madam Gu, the most important thing in her heart was the Marquis Mansion’s title and future.


    Therefore, if this “substitute” matter could make Madam Gu lose herposure to such an extent, would it endanger the Marquis Mansion’s nobility?


    Bang! Bang! Bang!


    Madam Wang’s heart beat even faster.


    The Marquis Mansion’s title wasn’t only Madam Gu’s Achilles’ heel, but also the Wang Family’s Achilles’ heel.


    Madam Wang was afraid and hesitant.


    After a long silence and hesitation, Madam Wang suddenly stomped her feet and instructed the old woman in green in a low voice, “Tell that person to wait first.’


    Madam Wang herself turned around and walked towards Benevolent Harmony Hall. She took three steps at a time, and her footsteps were like the wind.


    Since it involved a “substitute”, it was most likely very important. She had to tell Madam Gu to prevent anything from happening in the future.


    Madam Wang couldn’t be bothered to find out why the Eldest Prince hade to the Marquis Mansion. She left in a hurry, feeling overwrought.


    On this day, Madam Wang stayed in Benevolent Harmony Hall for more than an hour. Then, she reluctantly instructed the old woman to bring the person outside in.


    In the following days, the Dingyuan Marquis Household continued to close its doors and refuse guests.


    By the time Gu Yanfei finished hernterns, it was already the 15th, the day of the Lantern Festival.


    At dusk, the sun set. The sky was dark, leaving only thest trace of golden-red in the western sky.


    The Dingyuan Marquis Household weed the Eldest Prince’s arrival once again. A ck horse carriage with a crew cut was waiting outside the gates of the Marquis Mansion.


    Without waiting for the news to reach Gu Jian, Gu Yanfei got into the carriage happily. She looked at the two pairs of very simr auspicious phoenix eyes in the carriage and smiled happily.


    The siblings were wearing purple clothes today. Chu Yi’s robe was embroidered with a bunch of green bamboo, and hisfortable dress was embroidered with broken branches and green calyx plums.


    One was elegant and noble, while the other was shy and cute.


    “Sister!” An Le smiled shyly at Gu Yanfei and invited her to sit beside her. She then took a small white rabbitntern from the side and handed it to Gu Yanfei. “This is a gift. Brother and I made thisntern ourselves.”


    The little girl blinked, her ck and white eyes filled with anticipation, as if asking, ‘Do you like it?


    “How cute!” Gu Yanfei took the rabbitntern and praised it sincerely. “It’s much better than mine.”


    She meant what she said. The rabbitntern was much more exquisite than the roundntern in her hand and was even more lifelike.


    An Le pursed her lips and smiled even more shyly. “Brother taught me.”


    An Le looked at Chu Yi opposite her. Her shy smile couldn’t hide her admiration for him.


    Gu Yanfei also nced at Chu Yi from the corner of her eye. Her eyes curved and she handed thentern in her hand to An Le. ‘This is for you. We’ll each have one.”


    She even checked An Le’s pulse and smiled in satisfaction.


    That day at Chengtian Gate, Gu Yanfei had mentioned it to the Emperor and asked the imperial physicians to give him some peace to recuperate.


    In the past five years, the Blood Gu had damaged the foundation of peace and harmony. She would only gradually regain feeling in her legs after the vitality she had depleted over the years was replenished.


    From the looks of it, the imperial physician’s prescription for safety was quite good.


    In just five to six days, the little girl’splexion had improved a lot. Her fair cheeks had also be plumper, like a flower bud that was half blooming and half blooming. It made Gu Yanfei have the urge to pinch her cheeks.


    Xiao Shi’s shout came from outside the carriage. The carriage swayed as it slowly moved forward, heading south.


    An Le shook thentern that Gu Yanfei gave her excitedly. Her eyes lit up as she said, “Sister, have you been to the Lantern Festival?”


    “Eldest Brother and I have never been to the Lantern Festival!”


    An Le’s second sentence surprised Gu Yanfei. She subconsciously looked at Chu Yi, who was sitting opposite her.


    That day, Chu Yi spoke so vividly in the Marquis Mansion that she thought he often went there.


    Chu Yi was pouring tea..
