Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Chapter 128 Even if I were given a pole, I wouldn’t climb up

Gu Qinghe and Gu Ruoxing sat on either side of Old Lady Gu. The car was so quiet. Wangchun touched the envelope that had slipped to his wrist and glanced at Yingchun. Yingchun looked at the old lady and then shook her head.

Gu Ruoxing let out a long sigh from time to time and wanted to lift the curtain beside the car window, but she raised her hand and put it down again.

"Ruoxing, now that you have entered the palace, your aunt will be with you. Don't speak carelessly. Those who are here today are all important people in the capital." Old Mrs. Gu was still resting with her eyes closed.

"Grandma, you have said this many times, and your granddaughter remembers it all." Gu Ruoxing said.

Old Madam Gu said "hmm" softly. After a few breaths, she opened her eyes and looked at Gu Qinghe. "Qinghe, you should talk more appropriately. Don't just dismiss people with a few words when they ask you questions."

"Yes."

After hearing her brief answer, Old Lady Gu thought to herself: This child is hopeless. She's just like her parents. It would be strange if two stubborn ones could raise a docile one.

Gu Ruoxing felt very unbalanced at the moment. Her grandmother's words just now clearly encouraged Gu Qinghe to perform more and suppress herself.

It's a pity that Gu Qinghe is very aloof and won't climb up even if given a pole.

East Palace

Xiao Jingheng let Han Desheng put the crown on him, "What's going on with Prince Jin?"

"We hosted a banquet for several court officials yesterday, including Lord Ruan Zhou. However, during the banquet yesterday, King Jin asked about the girl from the Gu family." Han Desheng bowed and replied.

Xiao Jingheng frowned slightly, "Anything else?"

"temporarily unavailable."

"Tell someone to keep an eye on it. If something like this happens again, report it to me the moment you know about it, no matter what I am doing." Xiao Jingheng ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes, I will remember it." Han Desheng said, and followed the prince out.

Just a few steps out of the palace gate, he saw Ruan Liuzheng standing on the roadside with her maid. Han Desheng's heart skipped a beat. Why is this person here again?

The Crown Prince had previously stated that she was not allowed to come and had even threatened to leave the palace, so why didn't she listen? Did the Crown Prince have to say something unpleasant?

Han Desheng pricked up his ears, waiting for the prince to speak, but he didn't expect that the prince would just walk past without even turning his head.

Forget it, just ignore it. Han Desheng didn't dare to stay and followed behind swiftly.

"Crown Prince cousin..." Ruan Liuzheng kept her head down waiting for Xiao Jingheng to come over, thinking that he would come over and scold her. Unexpectedly, the other party was too lazy to even say a word, but she had to say it.

Han Desheng lowered his head and looked back. Miss Ruan had a sad expression, as if she had great pain in her heart to express.

"Your Highness, I have something to tell you." Ruan Liuzheng caught up and changed his address.

"Long story short." Xiao Jingheng looked ahead. There was a pavilion there. In his previous life, he had once supported the pregnant queen and enjoyed the cool air here.

"Cousin, please save me. Jiang Huizhou probably won't survive. My father wants to use me to exchange for a better future. If you can't give me a clear way out, I don't know what will happen?" Ruan Liuzheng said as he knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face, looking so pitiful.

However, there was no trace of pity in Xiao Jingheng's eyes. He had seen Ruan Liuzheng like this many times in his previous life. She used arguments such as family affection and blood relationship with her mother, which made him, the emperor who didn't care about the harem, suffer a lot.

Looks pitiful on the outside, but hateful on the inside.

"Children's marriage has always been decided by their parents. I have no right to interfere." After Xiao Jingheng finished speaking, he raised his foot to leave. Unexpectedly, Ruan Liuzheng rushed over and hugged Xiao Jingheng's calf.

"Cousin, please have mercy on me. Just give me a place to live, enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear. I don't want my father to give it to someone I don't know as a gift."

Xiao Jingheng took two steps forward and kept a distance from Ruan Liuzheng. Han Desheng couldn't bear to watch Miss Ruan crying like a pear blossom in the rain.

"Empress Li can also solve the problems you mentioned. If Miss Ruan has nothing else to do, I will be busy." Xiao Jingheng said.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince—" When Ruan Liuzheng spoke again, Xiao Jingheng and his group had already walked away.

"Miss, please get up quickly. It's almost late autumn and the ground is cold." The maid helped Ruan Liuzheng up, then squatted down and brushed the dust off her skirt. When she looked up again, Ruan Liuzheng had a cold expression on her face, without any trace of the sadness she had just had.

"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no regard for me, I don't need to talk about morality." Ruan Liuzheng said calmly, supported the maid, and hurried back to Yufu Palace.

As soon as the Gu family's carriage stopped at the palace gate, a eunuch from Yongshou Palace came forward to greet them. "Madam Gu, two young ladies, the Empress Dowager has been talking about you since she woke up this morning."

"Oh, how can I ask the Empress Dowager to wait for me?" Old Lady Gu said, and winked at Mama Liu, who handed over a purse. The eunuch did not refuse and stuffed it into his sleeve with ease.

"Please come in." The eunuch said, and looked at the two girls behind Old Madam Gu. One was dressed very luxuriously, and the other was very ordinary, as if going to the palace was no different from being at home.

However, he just felt that this person who came to the palace as if he was coming home, had a more attractive demeanor and expression, and of course, was also more beautiful.

After exchanging greetings, the group went to Yongshou Palace first.

The hustle and bustle at the palace gate has not stopped since the afternoon. The carriage that stopped now belongs to the prince's palace, the old Prince Yan's family. Princess Yunhua looked at the group of people in front, and it seemed that Gu Qinghe was among them, as well as her annoying second sister.

"Brother, I saw Gu Qinghe." With that, Yunhua ran away, leaving Xiao Yifei to help the old princess get out of the car.

"This Gu Qinghe is so charming that he has bewitched the Crown Prince and even your sister. Is there anyone else?" The old princess said, looking at her grandson who was famous for being a playboy.

Xiao Yifei waved his hands quickly, "Grandma, my grandson only has one head, and it's very clear. Besides, that girl has martial arts skills. I'm not like the prince, who is proficient in both civil and martial arts. I dare not marry a Hedong lion and sleep on the same bed with her."

Xiao Yifei's analysis was very logical, but the old princess felt very uncomfortable after listening to it, "Since you know that you are not as good as the prince, then you should at least work hard. Your father died early, and your grandfather and I didn't know..."

"It's a big holiday, don't say anything unlucky." Xiao Yifei pretended to be angry, "Besides, I'm not inferior to my cousin. At least as my grandmother, you don't have to lose face just to find a grandson's wife, right?"

The old princess felt a little relieved when she heard this, but not much. "If it's worth the Empress Dowager sacrificing her reputation, it means this girl has many advantages. She is definitely not the Hedong Lion you mentioned."

"Let's talk about it later. Grandma must be thirsty. Let's go to Yongshou Palace and sit for a while." Xiao Yifei said. In his peripheral vision, Prince Jin got off the carriage and was coming towards them.
