After the daughter was treated harshly by her family, everyone knelt down and begged for forgiveness

Chapter 1039 Deep Love in the Heart

Gu Yuanqiong did not answer and asked a question.

"What do you want to say?"

Gu Yihe is solemn and dignified.

"I foolishly believe that the most important thing in love is sincerity."

"Lord Lan is using deceitful means to try to gain happiness. This is not the right way. I do not agree with it."

Gu Yuanqiong clarified.

"It wasn't her intention to use a trick, it was just because Master Lin refused to accept her."

Gu Yihe refuted the argument with reason.

"If she's not accepted, she can try to give it back, or cut her losses in time. How could she be so reckless as to endanger someone's life and destroy their relationship?"

"Excuse me for being blunt, but Lord Lan's schemes are sinister and his behavior is improper. If this gets out, he will be despised for life."

Gu Yuanqiong defended himself.

"Before, you were interested in Master Lin, wasn't it the same?"

"You should understand her helplessness."

Gu Yihe was furious.

"She and I act completely differently, how can we be compared?"

"For me, it was Master Gao who suddenly appeared and snatched away my lover. Master Gao was unkind first, so even if I was unrighteous, I can still forgive him."

"Besides, I have already acknowledged my mistakes and corrected them."

"Lord Lan, you are clearly interfering in other people's marriages. You are being hypocritical and heartless. You are unforgivable!"

"You didn't see her do it yourself, and you didn't care about Madam Mei's safety, so you thought it was a trivial matter. But I saw it with my own eyes. She was extremely vicious. If Madam Mei hadn't been blessed by good fortune, she would have been a cold corpse by now."

Gu Yuanqiong blamed himself and reflected on himself.

"Blame me. I was the one who taught her these cruel methods."

"I forced her to do that. She's cruel and ruthless."

"Before, Tong'er was not like this."

Gu Yihe remained unmoved.

"I don't care what she was like before. Anyway, I won't allow her to use tricks to marry Master Lin."

Gu Yuanqiong was troubled and a little annoyed.

"I've put aside my pride and come all the way to beg you. Can't you just give Tong'er a chance and let her try?"

"Tong'er is distressed, and the princess is also sad. The princess is carrying my child in her belly. Can't you just think of it as an aunt caring for her nephew?"

Gu Yihe's words are well-organized and his opinions have reasons.

"Big Brother, do you think I'm deliberately criticizing Lord Lan? You're totally wrong."

"As you said, I understand her. And it is precisely because I understand her that I want to stop her."

"She doesn't really love Lord Lin at all."

"My move is not only to protect Lords Gao and Lin, but also for Lord Lan's sake."

"How could my royal brother bear to watch her suffer so deeply after marrying into the Lin family?"

Gu Yuanqiong was enlightened.

"Now that you've said that, we have to take it seriously. Tong'er's admiration does sound a bit strange."

"But she certainly didn't do it on purpose."

"I guess she didn't see clearly into her own heart and believed that her love was real."

Gu Yihe analyzed.

"I heard her say that Lord Lin had given her a new life. From this, I can infer that she probably considers repaying the favor as love."

Gu Yuanqiong agreed.

"It makes sense."

Gu Yihe lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out the window.

"We'll be at Prince Li's Mansion soon. Go back and try to persuade her."

"I will go and ask to see Princess Yuexi and explain the matter."

Gu Yuanqiong responded.

"Ah."

As they chatted, the carriage stopped in front of Prince Li's residence. Gu Yihe helped her brother get out of the carriage, waved goodbye, and watched him leave. Then, she instructed the coachman to head to Yuexi Mansion.

Ning Yunxi went out and returned to the Yun Mansion to pay her respects to her father. Gu Yihe sat quietly drinking tea, waiting for her to return.

Tong Zhe came to visit.

Ning Yunxi had left a message before, saying that Manager Tong would come today to discuss the anchor duel with her. If he arrived, there was no need to inform her, just invite him in directly.

When he walked into the main hall of the mansion, he saw the person sitting on the side. After listening to the servant's introduction, Tongzhe knelt down and bowed.

"I am Tongzhe, the shopkeeper of Bingqing Garden, and I respectfully wish Her Highness the Sixth Princess good health."

Gu Yihe put down the teacup in her hand, bowed slightly, and supported herself with both hands.

"Shopkeeper Tong, I've heard of your great name for a long time. It's like thunder in my ears."

"Please stand up and sit down."

Tong Zhe was trembling with fear and sat at the last seat.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

After the two exchanged greetings for a while, Ning Yunxi returned home and saw Manager Tong trying to pay his respects, so he stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Since there are no outsiders, please waive the rules. Manager Tong, please return to your seat."

After saying that, Ning Yunxi sat down.

Tong Zhe stood still and offered way.

"The matter of Bingqingyuan is not very important. Your Highness, please continue the conversation. I will step aside."

Gu Yihe said in a friendly manner.

"I'm going to talk, Manager Tong, there's no need to avoid me. Just sit back and relax."

Tong Zhe sat down as he was told.

"Yes, thank you, Your Highness, and thank you, Princess."

Turning his head to the princess, Gu Yihe began to narrate.

"Lord Lan..."

After the narration ended, Ning Yunxi fell into deep thought and did not respond immediately.

Tong Zhe was extremely anxious and couldn't help but speak.

"Your Highness is saying that although the village master is in Ning Mansion, the one she loves deeply is not Lord Ning, but Lord Lin?"

"Excuse me for asking, but is there something wrong with your understanding, Your Highness?"

"Some time ago, the princess heard with her own ears that the village head expressed her admiration for Lord Ning, and that's why she was sent to live in the Ning Mansion."

"Last time, I went to visit her and she told me that Lord Ning was very caring and that they were very loving."

Ning Yunxi's thoughts stopped when she heard this, and she understood what he meant.

Gu Yihe also heard the affection in the words, smiled slightly, and raised her eyebrows.

"Why is Shopkeeper Tong so concerned about Village Master Lan?"

"Could it be that you are placing your feelings on her?"

Tong Zhe's thoughts were suddenly seen through by someone, and he was unable to react in time, his eyes fixed.

"I……"

Gu Yihe's smile was graceful.

"You two have been working together in business for such a long time, and yet the princess didn't even notice that Shopkeeper Tong had other plans?"

Ning Yunxi smiled awkwardly.

"I was so careless that I didn't notice it."

Tong Zhe explained hurriedly.

"The princess is not a careless person."

"I deliberately concealed it. Plus, the princess never asks about my private affairs, so I know nothing about it."

Gu Yihe suggested.

"If Shopkeeper Tong is sincere, it wouldn't be a bad idea for the princess to help bring them together."

Ning Yunxi was shocked.

"Why match them together?"

"Your Highness, do you mean that Lord Lan is also fascinated by this?"

Tong Zhe denied it immediately without hesitation.

"impossible."

"Your Highness, Princess, please understand that Lord Lan has absolutely no intention of expressing his feelings for me."

"If she deeply loves Lord Ning, then she can stay in the Ning Mansion. If she deeply loves Lord Lin, then please ask the princess to bring them together."

"I am a humble man, a mere commoner, and I dare not dream of marrying the village head."

Ning Yunxi is good at speaking.

"Manager Tong, please don't underestimate yourself."

"The village lord holds a noble title, and you are a successful businessman. Although we are in different industries, we are equally outstanding. You should not be too discriminating and belittle yourself."

She turned to the Sixth Princess.

"Your Highness, it is inappropriate to conclude that the village master has no interest in my father based on just a few simple words."

"Besides this, Your Highness, what other basis do you have?"

Gu Yihe frowned.

"Isn't her own admission enough as evidence?"

Ning Yunxi is reasonable and logical.

"You don't know each other well."

"What she told you may not be true."

Gu Yihe was slightly displeased.

"If the princess doesn't believe it, go ask her yourself."

Ning Yunxi was comforted.

"Don't be angry, Your Highness. I'm not suspicious of you."

"The village master is shy, so I can't ask directly. May I ask Your Highness, what should I do?"

Gu Yihe came up with an idea.

"Madam Mei and Lord Gao, the Secret Attendant, seem to have been in close contact with her recently and may know something about the situation."

"Princess, you can ask them."
