Before going to bed, Ge Fu snuggled in her quilt and said to You Rong who was about to turn off the lights and leave, "Pay attention to the news from the palace." She was quite curious about Xiao Yuan's reaction.

You Rong nodded excitedly and made an OK gesture.

In Long Garden, Lu Yao was about to go back to his room when Zhang Junjie grabbed him.

"General, are you sure?" He said seriously, "As a princess...it's very difficult for you two to be together."

"I know." Lu Yao's tone was extremely calm.

He was sure of it before he took that step.

Zhang Junjie opened his mouth, but in the end no words came out.

In his opinion, the biggest problem between the general and the princess is that one of them is from Hengyang and the other is from Jinglong, and they both want to marry each other. What should they do?

Although his general is not one who cares about status, it is impossible for him to stay in Hengyang for the princess and abandon the Luo warlord to live alone.

But asking the princess to abandon Hengyang and go back to Jinglong with the general... Let's not talk about whether the princess is willing or not. Although the general is a hidden Tyrannosaurus Rex, he is not the kind of person who would take it for granted to ask others to sacrifice for him.

There's simply a deadlock between these two people.

The generals have always been smarter than him and think more thoroughly. If he can think of these, the generals must have thought of them as well, and perhaps even more.

But he still made the decision.

That can only mean... he has thought of a way to have the best of both worlds, or he hasn't thought of it, but still... is willing to risk his life for it.

Zhang Junjie's heart tightened and he began to feel uneasy. This time they came to Hengyang to pursue Jiang Yongjie... was it really the right thing to do?

Early in the morning, Ge Fu was sitting in front of the dressing table while You Rong was doing her beauty treatment when Zheng Ruonan called.

"...You didn't see the emperor's expression. Prince Edmund didn't know how to read the emperor's expression at all and kept making small talk in front of the emperor. The emperor wanted to get angry, but he had to hold it in in front of him, and his face almost turned green." She laughed.

But Gofu tilted her head. Was Prince Edmund trying to please her in this way?

——He didn't think that this man knew nothing about what happened between her and Xiao Yuan. If she and Xiao Yuan were really close, Edmund would not dare to propose marriage even if he had a hundred courage.

No matter what, Ge Fu felt relieved knowing that Xiao Yuan was not doing well.

"Princess, someone from B Lar contacted me yesterday at noon, hoping to cooperate with you." Tan Xi came early today and announced a big news as soon as he arrived.

"B Lar?" Zhuang Jingjing looked confused. "What is this?"

"A home furnishing brand that is well-known both at home and abroad." You Rong frowned and said, "But what kind of cooperation can such a brand have with the princess?" If they wanted to cooperate with the five-star hotel under the name of the Ge family, they should not contact Tan Xi.

"They want to make a series of household items based on famous paintings, so they hope to obtain authorization for the princess's works." Tan Xi replied.

"Famous painting series of household items?" You Rong asked in confusion, "I don't quite understand what you mean."

"For example, they will print the princess's works on the quilt covers, bed sheets, pillowcases, curtains, carpets, etc. Some furniture, such as glass cabinet doors, can also be printed with the princess's paintings." Tan Xi explained.

"Then I understand, but..." You Rong frowned and said, "Why do I feel weird?"

"How do you reply to them?" Ge Fu asked as she closed her eyes and let You Rong put makeup on her.

She is a bit busy today. She has to go to the Academy of Fine Arts to teach students in the morning and take the postgraduate entrance examination in the afternoon.

——This postgraduate examination was a separate exam specially prepared for her by her leader. Although it seemed like it was just a formality, she still prepared well for it.

Ge Fu originally planned to follow the formal examination process to avoid being criticized by outsiders in the future. But Professor Liang said that this kind of separate examination for special talents has precedents in the Academy of Fine Arts, and it is not an exception for her.

"I didn't give a clear answer." Tan Xi handed You Rong the eyebrow pencil she wanted, and then said, "I just said I wanted to ask your opinion, Princess."

Ge Fu simply said: "Then refuse it."

"Princess?" Zhuang Jingjing was a little surprised. "Why don't you ask about the licensing fee they gave?"

"No need to ask." Ge Fu said, "Unless I die, I will not let my works appear on any daily necessities. Art should be higher than life. When art becomes part of life, its divinity is gone."

In her previous life, she had a classmate in college who was born in poverty but had great talent. It was not easy for her to persist in learning painting. Because of this, she started working everywhere since her freshman year. As a result, a classmate who was born in a wealthy second-generation family and whose family was engaged in embroidery and high-end customization invited her to draw patterns for their company after seeing that she was good at painting flowers and birds. At that time, the price was based on the length of the painting, with the smallest being 100 yuan per painting and the largest being 2,000 yuan per painting. With this, the classmate's financial situation gradually became better.

But later, when that classmate officially entered the art world, she was never accepted by art fans because her works were mostly embroidery. She participated in painting competitions several times, but the domestic judges knew that her past would inevitably bring prejudices, and she could not participate in foreign competitions because of her major. As a result, after many years of struggle, she finally became a designer instead of the painter she originally wanted to be.

From this incident, Ge Fu learned a lesson - to a certain extent, painters are the same as celebrities, they also need to manage themselves properly and must never allow themselves to become vulgar.

Once your work becomes lifelike, your career as a painter is over.

Anything can be down-to-earth, but art can never be associated with this word.

Tan Xi actually wanted to persuade the princess to reject this cooperation, but she couldn't tell the specific reason. After hearing what she said, she suddenly realized: "No wonder they offered such a high price."

Ever since Yun Yuchen's incident, Ge Fu had never gone out alone again. This time was no exception. Zhuang Jingjing drove the car, and there was another car behind her, with members of the escort team on standby.

——Ge Fu actually felt that it would be fine to have Zhuang Jingjing accompanying her. Having a car full of bodyguards was a bit exaggerated, but it was obvious that no one would listen to her on this matter.

When Lu Yaochen ran back, Ping Hao had already prepared breakfast. When he came out after taking a shower, he hurriedly told him the first-hand information.

"I asked someone at Shuyue Pavilion, and the princess went to the Academy of Fine Arts. She had classes this morning and a postgraduate exam in the afternoon, so she will be away all day." Compared to Zhang Junjie, Ping Hao was very happy to see the change in the relationship between Lu Yao and the princess.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yao frowned and asked, "How did you find out so much?"
