Chapter 1669 The Golden Rolls 1

?

De Fu shared some small talk with Gu Chaoyan on the way there. Their topics were casual, as if they were just chatting. The Phoenix Girl was still someone who respected a Chief like De Fu, after all.

However, through the topics, he was passing on what was going on in the court to Gu Chaoyan.

That was something a smart person would do.

De Fu was an eunuch, but he was someone with his own principles and redlines.

No matter what happened to the King, he would still show utter devotion. However, Gu Chaoyan did him a favor before, so he was protecting her with his own methods.

When De Fu told her about the arrival of the ministers and officers, it meant one thing - the King was summoning her for a different purpose this time.

This time…

All the ministers were present.

So it was not about having a private conversation.

No matter what promise the King made to her before… he did this for one reason.

Gu Chaoyan's face sank.

De Fu led the way and as he was reminding Gu Chaoyan about the road ahead, he quietly sized up her expression. Through how she looked, he tried to guess if Gu Chaoyan understood what he meant.

De Fu was assured upon seeing that she did. So he continued without saying anything more.

These days… something seemed to be wrong with the King.

De Fu could not understand what was going on.

The King was also quite cautious towards him, which had never happened before. The King always trusted him in the past.

De Fu did not feel that it was a good omen.

In the court, there were no ministers like Prime Minister Chu and General Liu, who were devoted to the King and for the country, so De Fu could not even say a thing to any minister, except for the Phoenix Girl, whom he trusted relatively more. Hopefully, what he had told the Phoenix Girl could make her realize that she had to offer him some help.

De Fu was very concerned.

He was not young any more, but he aged very fast these days, now that so many things happened in the court and with the King.

After they got into the wagon leading to the court, the wagon headed directly into the palace.

Hearing the sound of horse hoofs, Gu Chaoyan started to think.

It seemed the King was resolute enough to force her to offer the Golden Rolls, taking the people from the Pavilion's side.

She had no idea when the world would turn chaotic, but soon, there would be chaos in the capital.

Gu Chaoyan let out a sigh of relief.

Soon they came to the gate.

As Gu Chaoyan got out of the wagon, she noticed a few ministers heading in the same direction as she did. They greeted her politely, without approaching her.

Gu Chaoyan also wanted to stay away from the ministers, with whom she did not want to socialize.

"Come this way." De Fu reminded her cautiously.

Gu Chaoyan saw that they were heading to the main palace.

Sure enough… that was exactly what she had expected.

Gu Chaoyan smiled briefly and walked towards the main palace.

When she reached the palace the Ministers and officers were all present.

De Fu called. "The Phoenix Girl has arrived!"

Then he politely led Gu Chaoyan into the palace.

"Greetings, Phoenix Girl!" The Ministers and officers all greeted Gu Chaoyan.

Gu Chaoyan stood quietly among them.
