Gu Zhenkang was just a minor officer at the Ministry of Personnel, so he was not in a position to order the imperial soldiers who only obeyed the King. At this moment, they were out on a mission and were supposed to only obey Lady Chaoyan's order. Gu Zhenkang could not order them around.Hearing Gu Zhenkang's arrangement, Gu Chaoyan felt slightly more satisfied.She was just trying to stimulate Gu Zhenkang instead of moving away for real. She was going to stay at Gu Mansion so that she could take revenge for her deceased mother.Gu Chaoyan nodded at the imperial soldiers. "Just go and do it. You have worked so hard today, so when you finish the moving today, you should all pick one piece you like from the box, as a present from me, the Phoenix Girl, so that you can get some blessings as well.""..." ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet"Also, the servants who have come to serve me will be granted with one piece they like as well.

"Okay, then, start your work," Gu Chaoyan said.She was showing that she was very generous.The imperial soldiers and the servants from the court were all very glad, not only because the presents were precious, but also because they were granted by the Phoenix Girl who could bring them good blessings that could be passed on over generations.They all cheered up. "Thanks, Phoenix Girl!"Then they went down to do the work.The servants who were working at Begonia Yard before looked at those treasures greedily. They wished that they could stay to work for such a generous mistress, a very rare one.Gu Ruxue's face turned pale from fury.She was about to make a scene, but got stopped.

Gu Zhenkang told the men to bring her and her mother away.When Gu Ruxue and Mrs. Gu were gone...Gu Zhenkang stayed to watch the process.The large numbers of the soldiers finished the move very quickly.Gu Zhenkang was very glad that Gu Chaoyan did not want what Gu Ruxue had, but tossed them out. Because if those stuff were confiscated by Gu Chaoyan, Gu Ruxue would have nothing left.Gu Chaoyan ignored Gu Zhenkang, and turned to De Fu. "Chief De Fu, you have worked hard today as well.""That is what I should do. I have been granted with precious presents, too. I feel blessed!" De Fu smiled and his mood was lifted.Gu Chaoyan nodded.

She watched people working hard inside and outside Begonia Yard.And the imperial soldiers were carrying boxes of stuff one by one out of the place.Gu Chaoyan found those boxes very familiar.She looked closer and saw that these were wooden boxes from the Lin Family, namely the doweries of Ms. Lin on her wedding day. They were all built from a special kind of wood, different from ordinary boxes. And next to the wooden box of the Lin Family, there was one small icon symbolizing the Lin Family."Hang on. Open the boxes for me to see." Gu Chaoyan shouted.The imperial soldiers stopped instantly.According to Gu Chaoyan's order, the boxes were opened. Gu Chaoyan found that everything inside belonged to the Lin Family.They were precious treasures too."Small ornaments, Ruxue's favorites. I bought them for her. So let's just move them away as soon as possible so you can settle down. It is getting very late as we are staying outside." Gu Zhenkang urged worriedly.Gu Chaoyan threw an indifferent look at him.Then she told the imperial army to put down the boxes, each of which was checked by her one by one.
