Everyone in the hall was silent for a few minutes before an uproar broke out.
It was as if a drop of ice water had fallen into a hot pot of oil and was splashing everywhere. Everyone was stunned by He Zhichu's words.
? ? ? ?
Wasn't Gu Nianzhi his fiancée?
They looked at the pink diamond crown on her head that symbolized the betrothal gift!
It was the pink diamond crown that had great historical significance. It had once been a betrothal gift from Catherine the Great's mother-in-law, the Empress of Czarist Russia!
Yes, Catherine the Great had once been the Empress of Czarist Russia. She had staged a coup and deposed her husband, Peter the Great, before ascending to the throne as the empress herself.
He Zhichu's gaze also fell on the pink diamond crown on Gu Nianzhi's head. He continued to say with a smile, "This pink diamond crown is proof of our brother and sister relatonship. Nianzhi, are you willing to call me brother?"
