Gu Chaoyan smiled briefly. That was the exact reaction she had expected her to have.


    This Elder Miss from Piaomiao Pavilion was too arrogant and that would be her barrier. She might be very capable and talented in Piaomiao Pavilion or where she cultivated, but she was blindfolded by this fact.


    She was not the best in the whole world.


    There were many more people who were skillful with what they specialized in, but did not reveal that to the market.


    For example… the owner at the drug''s store.


    The drug would not kill her, but she would have to suffer.


    Gu Chaoyan got into their wagon with Sword One, heading back to her ce to prepare the pills.


    Zhou Huailing and Zhao Dier were still there. They were supposed to head back to the court.


    Zhou Huailing had been startled, but hearing that it was just a minor issue, he was not worried. He said happily, "Lady Dier, if it is just a minor issue, let''s go back to the court to get the antidote. I will take revenge on Huaishi for your sake. You don''t need to be worried about it."


    Zhou Huailing tried to pamper her gently, but that irritated Zhao Dier even more. "Just get away from me."


    She pushed him away and left arrogantly.


    Zhou Huailing looked unhappy.


    Zhao Dier did not even save him any face in public.


    Zhou Huailing grumbled unhappily.


    Zhao Dier did not speak with him, but hurried into the court to find her fellows from Piaomiao Pavilion.


    Zhou Huailing went back to his own mansion.


    He let his temper out when he was at the mansion.


    He threw himself into the study, impatiently. "Zhao Dier is just too self-centered in front of me!"


    Zhou Huailing felt very annoyed about this.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    He was the Crown Prince, and even if he lowered himself, what he needed was for her to be moved and like him, but she was snapping back at him all this while. What was going on?


    However, Junyi thought something different.


    "The Crown Prince, that is good. Lady Dier is starting to treat you differently. She did not even speak with you at the beginning, but now she is throwing her temper at you. So you can continue to pamper her until she is used to your care. At that time, our purpose will be reached. As for the humiliation you got today… we will take revenge one day. We have to tolerate temporary humiliation," Junyi said quietly.


    "…"


    "I feel that you have harvested a lot on this trip."


    "…"


    "The Phoenix Girl is getting jealous, and Lady Dier treats you as her own."


    "…"


    "Soon, your wish will be reached."


    "…"


    "When Lady Dier gets detoxified, I feel that you can ask Lady Chaoyan about getting engaged to you and then you can ask Lady Chaoyan if she can offer you some charms… if she nods, then the answer will finally be revealed." Junyi started to make arrangements.


    Zhou Huailing nodded.


    Hearing what Junyi said, he felt that it should be like this.


    Good. There was no need to be displeased about anything like this.


    ***


    In the court.


    Zhao Dier went to Elder Qianji the moment she went back to the court.


    She asked unhappily, "Elder Qianji, can you detoxify me?"
