Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

The woman who came to the banquet today had been looking for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for a long time, but she just hadn't seen him.

Now, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked forward himself, he really astonished all the women. They all used handkerchiefs as cover and secretly looked at Xiao Jingheng.

After hearing what the prince said, the queen mother was actually very puzzled. What was going on? Wasn't this kid the one who came here on his own initiative?

But it was difficult to show it, so he just smiled and nodded, saying softly: "Go, business is more important."

The old princess was also puzzled. The prince had wanted to come on his own initiative and had even specifically invited the daughter of the Gu family. Why did he want to run away as soon as he saw the family today?

Jamel Xiao bowed and left, followed by the gazes of the girls.

Gu Ruoxing was in the crowd, looking at the tall figure of the prince, and felt her heart beating wildly. She covered her chest with her hands. A man like this could be a concubine, not to mention a principal wife.

Gu Yueru looked at Gu Ruoxing beside her. They had grown up together, so she naturally knew what her second sister was thinking. She smiled speechlessly. She was really bold in her thinking.

No wonder people say that it is important for people to know themselves. Such a quality is really rare.

After the invisible protagonist of the flower-viewing banquet left, the banquet still had to continue. People played pitch pots, composed poems, and painted, and had a lot of fun.

The Empress Dowager's trip was not in vain. She had asked the old princess to make a portrait for her before, and now that she saw the real person in person, the feeling was a little different.

Especially the Gu family, the Empress Dowager took a close look at them and even asked someone to come up and say a few words to them.

"Are you two the only daughters in the Gu family?" the Queen Mother asked with a smile.

"Her Majesty, I have a third younger sister, but she didn't come today." Gu Ruoxing said hurriedly, fearing that Gu Yueru would snatch the conversation away.

"Then why didn't she come today?" the Empress Dowager asked again.

"She just returned to Beijing from somewhere else and hasn't rested yet. It's not appropriate for her to go out." Gu Ruoxing said.

Gu Yueru frowned. She felt that her second sister was a bit too much when she said that to her third sister. There were so many mistresses here, and Gu Ruoxing actually said that Gu Qinghe was exhausted from the long journey and had not yet recovered. It had been half a month since she returned to Kyoto. Doesn't this mean that her third sister was not in good health?

What mistress would marry her son to a wife with poor health?

Gu Ruoxing is ruining the reputation of her third sister.

"Empress Dowager, I'm not very familiar with my second and third sisters. In fact, when the Gu family received the invitation, my second aunt had already made an appointment with an old friend to meet today. It was difficult to change the appointment, so she didn't come." Gu Yueru explained softly.

Gu Ruoxing's face turned red with embarrassment, and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

"Yes, I haven't seen my third sister these days, so I misunderstood." Gu Ruoxing explained timidly.

"It's okay, you all go down, Madam Lin will show these two girls a reward." The Empress Dowager waved her hand gently and said casually.

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Gu Ruoxing and Gu Yueru bowed and thanked her, then stepped aside.

Returning to her seat, Wang looked at Li with a frown, asking, "Who made the eldest girl ruin the second girl's show?"

"Sister-in-law, the affection we have shown each other over the years is not as good as the affection we have shown my second sister-in-law in the past few days since she came back?" Wang was smiling, but there was a chill in her tone.

"Third sister-in-law, what are you saying? The eldest uncle, the second uncle, and the third uncle are all brothers, and we are sisters-in-law. There is no such thing as closeness or distance. We are all the same." Li said with a faint smile.

"But just now, Yueru made Ruoxing lose face and spoke up for the third lady." Wang said.

"Third sister-in-law, Yueru is telling the truth. Besides, in such an occasion, if the third lady gets a bad reputation for being unwell, it will be hard to explain to the second house, and even to the old lady." Li said lightly, and her words were very reasonable.

Wang turned around and saw her daughter who was angry with Gu Yueru, then looked at the old lady sitting at the top, her face very serious, and glanced in their direction.

Wang's heart skipped a beat and she thought, oh no, the old lady must be dissatisfied.

She reached out and poked Gu Ruoxing on the back, signaling her not to gossip to Gu Yueru anymore.

Gu Ruoxing felt a chill on her back. She felt the chill running from the back of her neck to her tailbone. It was over. She didn't show her face in front of the Empress Dowager, and she also offended her grandmother.

------

Xiao Jingheng arrived at the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion, followed by Xiao Yifei.

"Your Highness, what urgent matter are you busy with?"

"I have nothing to say to you. Go back quickly. I heard that the teacher of the sect school criticized you again?" Xiao Jingheng said expressionlessly.

"What? Does the Grand Tutor praise you every day?" Xiao Yifei asked unconvinced.

"That's true. The Grand Tutor has recently praised me for my great progress." Xiao Jingheng said without any guilt. After being the emperor for seven years, it can be said that it is easy for him to come back and do the work of the crown prince.

Xiao Yifei stood there dumbfounded, speechless for a moment.

"Go back and do your homework, I have important things to do." Xiao Jingheng waved his hand, then jumped on his horse and left.

Only Xiao Yifei was left standing there in a daze. It was the first time he had seen the prince so impolite, and also the first time he had seen the prince so anxious.

Could it be that the East Palace is on fire?

The East Palace was not on fire, but it was almost on fire. The situation was indeed critical.

"Han Desheng, did I ask you to arrange for all the daughters of the Gu family to attend the banquet?" Xiao Jingheng tapped his palm with the whip in his hand.

"Your Highness, this is indeed what I arranged." Han Desheng also felt wronged. Who could have thought that someone would refuse the invitation to the flower viewing banquet at Prince Yan's Mansion?

Reject? Impossible. Gu Qinghe loves him to the point where she is willing to sacrifice her life for him. How could she possibly reject him?

No, Xiao Jingheng thought about it again. Now Gu Qinghe hasn't even seen him yet. How can he fall in love with him?

I think that in my previous life, it must have been Gu Qinghe who was attracted by my appearance and fell in love with me.

The most urgent thing now is to let her see me so that I can talk about what happens next.

But why did Gu Qinghe miss such a good opportunity today?

Just as he was thinking about it, a young eunuch outside gestured to Han Desheng.

Han Desheng hunched his body and walked quickly towards the door. "Tell me, what's the hurry?"

"Eunuch Han, this is what you asked me to investigate. I left late and overheard why the third daughter of the Gu family didn't attend the flower viewing banquet."

Before Han Desheng could speak, he heard His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say inside, "Come in and talk."

"Yes."

Han Desheng and the young eunuch walked into the hall. The young eunuch explained the whole story. Han Desheng found that the Crown Prince's complexion was obviously much better.
