Chapter 545 Crisis Surrounded
Early the next morning.
As soon as it dawned, the entire Jiangnan City began to become lively.
"Pa bang bang..."
There were bursts of firecrackers all around Jiangnan Academy, and it was extremely lively. Countless talented people from the Jiangnan area also rushed here.
After daybreak, the entire Jiangnan Academy was surrounded by water.
Many stalls were already in place, occupying both sides of the entire street leading to the academy. For a time, it could be said that this street was already crowded with people coming and going.
Gu Chan came in a carriage and was immediately blocked in the middle of the road. The carriage moved forward little by little following the flow of people.
"Damn it! Forget about the traffic jams in modern times, I never thought there would be traffic jams in ancient times. I'm so drunk."
Sitting in the carriage, Gu Chan looked at the carriage moving slower than a snail and complained angrily.
Yuan Jie, who was driving the carriage outside, said, "Master, why don't you go down and take a few steps! Walking is faster than riding a carriage now. I will find a place to stop the carriage in a while, and then go to Jiangnan Academy to find you."
< br>
"Okay, hurry up then!" Gu Chan nodded in agreement.
Then she got off the carriage and followed the flow of people to the front gate of Jiangnan Academy.
Due to her different status now, all the passers-by on the street greeted her with a smile, and everyone gave her way and did not push her way. No, it didn't take long for her to arrive at Jiangnan Academy smoothly. door.
However, the academy gate had not yet opened at this time, and it was not the right time to open the door.
Gu Chan could only helplessly stand at the door and wait quietly with everyone.
But just when Gu Chan was waiting impatiently, a woman in red slowly walked over from the crowd.
Her appearance immediately caused a stir in the crowd, and everyone made way for her to come in. No one dared to block her.
Gu Chan looked back and was stunned for a moment, because the person who came was none other than... Yanli...
Today's Yanli is really completely different from what she was back then. If she was a young girl back then, now she is more like a mature young woman, with a different maturity and charm.
Yanli came to the gate and walked straight towards Gu Chan who was standing here.
Gu Chan's face darkened, and she clearly felt something was wrong, but for a while, she couldn't explain what was wrong.
After Yan Li walked in front of Gu Chan, she first glared at Gu Chan fiercely. Then, beyond everyone's expectation, she blessed Gu Chan with an extremely polite blessing, saluted and said, "Lord, long time no see, don't come. All right.”
"Miss Yan, you have really changed a lot! I'm quite curious, where have you been during this time?" Gu Chan said with her arms folded in front of her chest.
"I went to Kyoto, and fortunately the prince appreciated me. Now I am his concubine. In addition to returning home this time, I am here to participate in the Jiangnan Poetry Festival." Yan Li said with a sneer.
Gu Chan's eyes widened when she heard it, and she couldn't believe her ears.
She never dreamed that after Yanli went to Kyoto, she would become the woman of the current prince. Dry!
She and Yanli had quite a feud before!
Now that this woman went to Kyoto to hang out, and came back with some success, why don't you punish her to death?
However, Yan Xishan is the leader of the Second Prince's Party in the Jiangnan area, and is now tied to her. If Yan Li causes any trouble, it will not only be difficult for Yan Xishan, but she will also have to follow him!
Seeing that Gu Chan was silent, Yan Li smiled and said, "Lord, what's wrong with you? Are you so afraid of me?"
"Tch! You really love to joke! Why should I be afraid of you?" Gu Chan said disdainfully.
"Then if you're not afraid, why are you staring at me so coldly?" Yanli said mockingly.
Gu Chan pretended not to care and said, "I just think you have changed a bit. Sure enough, women will always grow up after experiencing more men!"
"Hmph! Lord, there is no need to be sarcastic in your words. Previously, the second prince looked down on me, which was his loss. Now that the prince likes me, it only means that I have the capital to make him fancy me, and he also has good taste. Anyway, when I come back this time, I will definitely show my talents at the poetry festival, and I hope you, Lord, will work hard and not let down everyone's expectations of you," Yanli Aojiao said.
Gu Chan rolled her eyes at her and said with a bad smile, "If you win a good ranking this time and go back, the prince will pamper you! If that's the case, don't worry, I will be merciful and won't stop you from going to his bed." Climb! ”
"Hahaha..."
As soon as Gu Chan said these words, bursts of laughter burst out from all around.
Yan Li's face was livid, and she was gnashing her teeth in hatred, wishing to cut Gu Chan into pieces.
But after experiencing so much in Kyoto, she was no longer as impulsive as before. She suppressed the anger in her heart and said coldly, "Just wait! I'll see how long you can keep smiling."
"What, the prince is here? He wants to come and deal with me personally?" Gu Chan asked with a smile.
"I have no comment on this. You just need to understand that there is a price to pay for arrogance. Your good days will soon come to an end." Yan Li said harsh words.
After saying that, she turned and walked aside with a stiff face, not wanting to talk nonsense to Gu Chan anymore.
Gu Chan didn't bother to pay attention to her. She just looked at the closed door of Jiangnan Academy with a gloomy expression on her face.
There is no doubt that Yanli suddenly appeared and came to say these words to her. It was definitely not an accident. This was probably a warning given to her by the prince in advance. The purpose was to tell her to keep a low profile and not to be with others. He did the right thing, otherwise she would be greeted with a storm of revenge.
While Gu Chan was thinking about this, Yuan Jie squeezed through the crowd and came over, panting.
Stopping next to Gu Chan, Yuan Jie whispered, "Master, I came here all the way and found that there are many masters with strong spiritual energy in the crowd. They don't seem to be here to participate in the poetry meeting."
"Nonsense, Yanli went to Kyoto to hang out and became the prince's concubine. She must have brought these masters back. They are probably all powerful men under the prince." Gu Chan said angrily.
Yuan Jie looked up and noticed Yan Li standing over there.
Seeing that the eldest lady of the Yan family has become so mature and charming, she was dumbfounded and said, "No! She has only been in Kyoto for two or three months! How come she suddenly came back so well?"
"It's not that she is a good person, it's that she is of great use to the prince. In terms of understanding of the Jiangnan area, I guess that apart from the people from the Second Prince's Party, she is the eldest lady of the Yan family. Now she is helping the prince. "Our situation can be said to be full of dangers," Gu Chan said with a solemn expression.
Yuan Jie nodded noncommittally and began to feel extremely worried.
