He smiled gently:

"Greetings to Young Master Gu 31 and this young lady."

Gu Hanyuan said with a half-smile:

"Since you can even know my whereabouts, how could you not know Qingqing's identity?"

The woman said apologetically:

"It was my failure. Please forgive me, Miss Wen."

Wen Qingqing frowned slightly.

A sense of vigilance arose in my heart.

The woman before me was incredibly beautiful.

Judging by appearances alone.

Wen Qingqing felt that she was slightly inferior.

Especially the natural air of nobility that women possess.

This put even more pressure on her.

It even gave me the feeling of being looked down upon.

Wen Qingqing remained silent, wary of the woman before her.

Gu Hanyuan had already roughly guessed his identity.

I'm too lazy to play any riddles with her.

He smiled faintly:

"May I ask if you are Princess Changping?"

Wen Qingqing exclaimed:

"Princess Changping?"

She finally understood where that air of nobility came from.

The woman was none other than the Ninth Princess of the Ming Dynasty.

Princess Changping, Zhu Meichu.

Zhu Meichu is both lucky and unlucky in this world.

Fortunately, she did not suffer the loss of an arm.

Unfortunately, despite being a princess...

However, its position in the Ming Dynasty was quite awkward.

Because the world is different.

When Li Zicheng entered Beijing.

Zhu Meichu was still young.

Emperor Chongzhen naturally had no need to cut off her arm.

more importantly.

The situation in the Ming Dynasty at that time was not as bad as it was at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhu Meichu moved with the main force.

Emperor Chongzhen died for his country.

This can be seen as his atonement for ruining his vast empire.

However, after much political maneuvering, Zhu Houzhao, who succeeded to the throne, was not closely related to Zhu Meichu.

When Zhu Houzhao was young, the problem wasn't too serious.

As he grew older and began to wield power.

The position of the ninth princess, Zhu Meichu, who was left over from the Chongzhen era, suddenly became awkward.

Moreover, she has several brothers who are still active in the Qing Dynasty and the Sanjiang region, and they are attempting to regain their rightful place in China.

Zhu Meichu became even more of an eyesore.

The fact that she, as a princess, had no guards accompanying her speaks volumes.

It could be said that she was neither loved by her maternal grandmother nor by her maternal uncle.

Therefore, Zhu Meichu began to dabble in the martial arts world at a very young age.

In recent years, he has made a name for himself, albeit not a small one, under the name Ajiu.

However, her true identity remains largely unknown.

So when Gu Hanyuan exposed her identity.

Zhu Meichu was also startled.

He said with a wry smile:

“Young Master Gu is indeed no ordinary person; it is Ah Jiu who has been too clever for her own good.”

Zhu Meichu's embarrassment is understandable.

He had just pointed out Gu Hanyuan and Wen Qingqing's identities in a pretentious manner.

Gu Hanyuan immediately exposed him.

It's inevitable to feel embarrassed.

Calling herself Ajiu was also a deliberate way of expressing her meaning.

At this moment, there was only the Jianghu person Ajiu, not Princess Changping Zhu Meichu.

As for her ability to discern Gu Hanyuan and Wen Qingqing's identities...

It's highly likely that Zhu Meichu has a mole within the Youlong Gang.

I only learned about it from what happened the day before yesterday.

Gu Hanyuan felt a little regretful.

Zhu Meichu experienced national and personal tragedies at a young age.

Although no arm was severed.

However, it lacked that innocence and gained a bit more cunning.

Even her innocent demeanor at first glance seemed somewhat deliberate.

Of course, this kind of Zhu Meichu is actually more in line with Gu Hanyuan's interests.

After all, vases are easy to find.

There are not many capable women.

Gu Hanyuan shook his head and chuckled:

"Miss Ajiu, why belittle yourself? I only recognized you when I saw you."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Meichu asked curiously:

"why?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled with a hint of teasing:

"Although the decorations inside the ship are not numerous, they are exquisite and luxurious. Miss Ajiu is exceptionally beautiful and possesses an elegant and noble demeanor. Wouldn't it be incongruous if she didn't have the status of a princess?"

Zhu Meichu's pretty face flushed slightly.

Gu Hanyuan's straightforward praise clearly made her a little shy.

However, her good mental fortitude allowed her to quickly overcome her embarrassment.

He smiled generously and asked:

"Even so, it could be another princess. Why were you so sure it was A-Jiu?"

Gu Hanyuan chuckled:

“It’s unlikely that a princess from another country would come here. Therefore, it can only be a princess from the Ming or Qing dynasties. The Qing dynasty has fewer princesses, and because of the distinction between Manchus and Han Chinese, they are often unruly and willful towards the Han people. The Ming dynasty has even fewer princesses, and only Miss Ajiu is of the right age.”

There was a pause.

His tone became slightly flippant.

"More importantly, it is said that the Ninth Princess is a beauty of unparalleled grace and charm. I didn't quite believe it before, but now I think it is well-deserved."

Zhu Meichu was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

A blush immediately rose on her bright and pretty face.

And the trend is intensifying.

Before long, it spread to the small, delicate earlobes.

The shimmering silver earrings were even more eye-catching.
