In the bedroom of Ganquan Palace, Concubine Jin was half lying on the couch, and the palace maids were massaging her legs and shoulders, looking very comfortable.

"Your Majesty, the prince is here." Su Ye entered the hall to report.

Upon hearing this, Concubine Jin straightened up suddenly and looked out the door with a smile on her face.

"Son pays his respects to mother." Chu Zhimo bowed to Concubine Jin.

"Here you are, please sit down." Concubine Jin said, "Please serve tea to His Highness."

In fact, there was no need to wait for Concubine Jin's instructions, as the palace maids had already cleverly gone to make tea for Chu Zhimo.

When the tea was served, Concubine Jin waved to the palace maids in the hall.

Everyone understood and retreated.

Su Ye was guarding the door.

Chu Zhimo took a sip of tea and spoke slowly, "What is it that makes mother so anxious to see me?"

Concubine Jin rested her elbows on the low table on the couch, supported her chin with one hand, and looked at her son without blinking: "I heard that you gave Princess Mingjun a lot of gifts. Today she asked someone to return them all to you?"

Chu Zhimo: “…”

Who was the big mouth in his house who passed the news to his mother so quickly?

Gu Zhiyin's mother had only been gone for half an hour, right? His mother knew about this...

Chu Zhimo gritted his teeth secretly and decided to go back home to rectify the family tradition.

It's not that he had any problem with Concubine Jin, but the speed at which the news leaked made him feel as embarrassed as if his pants had been stripped off.

Concubine Jin glanced at Chu Zhimo sideways. She knew what her own son was thinking with just one look.

"Don't blame the servants in the mansion. They dared not to obey my orders. Do you want to sever the mother-son relationship with me?"

The corner of Chu Zhimo's mouth twitched slightly.

It doesn't have to be so cruel.

"Mother, if you have the free time, go watch plays and listen to music with the Imperial Concubine, and stop staring at what's going on in your son's mansion. Can I still have a little privacy?" Chu Zhimo muttered, rolling his eyes.

Concubine Jin was so angry that she stretched out her hand and hit him: "Unfilial son."

Chu Zhimo hid behind her head and said, "Don't hit someone in the face, mother. Also, you are the imperial concubine, so be careful with your manners."

"You despise me." Concubine Jin pointed at him with an accusing look.

"I do not have."

"Yes, you asked me to stop staring at your house. Was it not easy for me to raise you with all the hardship? I care about you so much, but you are not grateful, and you despise me." Concubine Jin said while wiping her eyes with a handkerchief.

Chu Zhimo: “…”

As a concubine, she has a group of palace maids serving her. There is nothing she can do except give birth to children. Isn't raising children the sole job of the servants?

It’s not easy at all!

The day was just talked to death.

Concubine Jin wiped the corners of her eyes for a long time, until her eyes were almost red, but her son didn't say a word, so she angrily threw the handkerchief at him.

"Get up, don't pretend to be dead."

Chu Zhimo sat up straight and looked at Concubine Jin leisurely.

"I'm asking you, are you interested in Princess Ming?"

Although it was a question, the tone of Concubine Jin's words was full of affirmation.

This sudden and straightforward sentence left Chu Zhimo speechless.

His expression froze for a moment, and then he twisted his body and said, "Yeah! She saved my son's life. She is calm and brave. She is different from other rich girls. She is very special."

The hero saves the beauty, and she falls in love with him at first sight.

Vice versa, it's the same.

"Alas, I like her too." Concubine Jin sighed and said.

Not only did she save her son, she also saved her brother's son!

Her elder brother and sister-in-law praised her highly and loved her so much that they wanted to take her home as their daughter.

And he also did a favor to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.

Both publicly and privately, marrying Gu Zhiyin would definitely be a great help.

Too bad he's already married.
