Ms. Doctor Divine

Xie Yan had just sat down and barely touched his teacup, when he saw the sinister-looking smile on Gu Chaoyan's face. She looked as if she was onto something, thus making him feel a bit alarmed.

The Heir and the Princess Consort never considered Gu Chaoyan a smart person. They always looked down at her and belittled her, but Xie Yan was different.

He did not agree with them. Xie Yan felt that she was a person with deep thoughts, when it came to the aspect of intelligence.

For example, when it came to the summoning of the phoenix…

Xie Yan never thought that it was a very simple thing - the Heir and the Princess Consort must have been tricked by her! They spent a great deal of money on buying the music which did not work. What the Heir and his Princess Consort had not noticed was that the phoenix only appeared, when no one was around, only occasionally, too. Whenever the Heir and the Princess Consort needed the phoenix to show up, it never followed their orders.

Could it have been the issue of luck? Absolutely not!

The Heir and the Princess Consort had been set up in this matter, but the problem was that neither of them thought over any of this, but still believed that they had taken advantage of Gu Chaoyan.

Because of this, Xie Yan had been quite guarded against Gu Chaoyan, whom he believed to be someone with conspiracies and tricks.

He was a strategist, so when he was confronted with such a person, he became very cautious.

"What is it?" Xie Yan asked confusedly, looking very alarmed.

Gu Chaoyan ignored how cautious he looked. Instead, she took a sip of tea, then she began calmly. "The King was going to build a bigger mansion for the Heir, but the Ministry of Architecture proposed that since there is no vacant space for a new mansion, they can just work on Lord Huai's Mansion instead. Do you think that the King would approve of this proposal?"

Gu Chaoyan looked at Xie Yan with interest.

Hearing that the Heir was mentioned, Xie Yan was no longer as cautious as before. He became totally devoted to pondering over this whole thing.

Building the Heir's Mansion in Lord Huai's Mansion?

That sounded like a very unreasonable thing.

The Ministry of Architecture made this proposal, not because they really thought it was a good idea - they were trying to see how the King would treat the Heir and Lord Huai.

The Heir had been endowed, but the King was still in his peak, so Xie Yan did not think that he would give everything to the Heir at this point, not yet.

He shook his head. "No, he wouldn't say yes."

"You are wrong, the King said yes," Gu Chaoyan said with a small smile.

"What?!" Xie Yan looked totally astonished. He was filled with disbelief - the King said yes?

Despite the smile on Gu Chaoyan's face, Xie Yan firmly believed that she was not lying - it was true!

It was totally beyond his expectations.

The King had started to treat the Heir in such a caring way!

Xie Yan frowned as he said, "I am afraid that I will have to recall what I claimed a while ago."

"…"

"The Heir is most likely to take the throne."

"…"

"The Heir isn't a smart person, but… his father is even worse," Xie Yan said without trying to hide anything.

He knew one thing clearly - the reason why Gu Chaoyan dared to mention this question here was because they were totally protected in this environment. So he would not be afraid of saying anything truthfully.

However, Xie Yan still looked at Gu Chaoyan with a look of complication, after he was done talking.
