Chu Tian did not believe that that was the only reason for her to be here.
Ms. Gu had experienced a lot of changes these years. He heard from his wife about how she behaved at the banquet and how she was like from his daughter. He realized one thing clearly – this Elder Miss was not simple-minded at all. She was straightforward, but held something deep in her heart.
Lord Huai did try to get hold of the errand here at Li County, but the King did not want to offer the opportunity to Lord Huai.
Lord Huai did not show up, sure, but after just a couple of days, his Princess Consort was here. And she was here for her own business.
She came to keep her patient company and was even in a helpless situation as well.
Chu Tian just did not know what he should say about this matter.
Was it a coincidence? Chu Tian did not think so.
What he could say was that Elder Miss was not only smart but also brave.
The Crown Prince Consort did not dare to be present after she came to Li County, and the Crown Prince was already back at home. Under comparison, Elder Miss was indeed quite brave.
Chu Tian showed a light smile. He looked at Gu Chaoyan. “Aren’t you afraid of being here, Elder Miss?”
“What should I be afraid of? You are here, Prime Minister Chu.” Gu Chaoyan answered brieftly and then she was attracted to something not faraway. She frowned and asked seriously, “So that is it?”
Chu Tian nodded.
Yes, it was, but it was a very annoying thing, to be honest.
The King, after receiving the news, ordered him to transport it back to the capital for further studies, but it wasn’t that easy to transport this huge thing. An iron cage would not work. He even suspected that the iron cage would not be as firm as the thing!
How could it be transported, anyway?
That was something they could not do.
Also, the guards had to stand on watch, in case it ran away and hurt more people.
It was such an annoying issue to deal with.
Officer Junyi must have returned to the capital and he must be extremely startled to not return to check on it. He had thought that Officer Junyi might offer some solutions.
Chu Tian was in a very difficult situation right now, where he had no idea what to do.
Gu Chaoyan showed no fear, and even looked curious, as she headed towards it.
The guards did not dare to let her go there directly, since it was too dangerous for her to be there. Gu Chaoyan was the future Princess Consort, so they could not let anything happen to her.
“Just let Lady Chaoyan have a look at it,” Chu Tian said straightforwardly.
Gu Chaoyan did not hesitate, but headed there directly.
She had seen the dead ones, but this living one looked quite strange too.
It was in a pit that was the same size as it was. It was lively yet could not do anything about being in the trap.
Gu Chaoyan could not help but laugh, as if she were watching an underdeveloped person.
“The King wants me to transport it back to the capital, but the cage is not strong enough to get it there.” Chu Tian was standing next to Gu Chaoyan.
Gu Chaoyan threw a calm look at it.
She chuckled. “Well, that is easy.”
Chu Tian’s face changed. He had just asked a casual thing, but Elder Miss came up with an idea.
“What is your opinion?”
