Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Accept the purpose?

Wang Shi didn't know what to say or do, so Gu Ruoxing asked, "Do you know why the decree came?"

Xing'er shook her head. "I don't know. The old lady in the courtyard finished her talk and then went to inform the second house."

Wang Shi came to her senses when she heard about the second room. "Ruoxing, it was our third room that was notified first. Come on, go to the front yard."

He took two steps and then stopped. "Since we were notified first, it's possible that the decree was meant for us. Let's change our clothes before going, so we can look more presentable."

Gu Ruoxing hesitated for a moment upon hearing this. Xing'er, seeing this, quickly spoke up to persuade her, "Madam, Miss, it's disrespectful to be late in receiving the decree." Besides, the old lady's men notified the third house first because they were closer, so the servants naturally ran as fast as possible...

"Xing'er is right. I will reward you with a big purse later." Wang said, and hurried out with Gu Ruoxing.

The second house's yard was the last to be notified, for the simple reason that it was the farthest from the old lady's yard. Gu An was often away from home, and after he came back, he chose the yard next door for some quiet.

Bai Shi dressed herself up under the care of Madam Liu and asked Gu An, who was waiting outside, "My husband, is there something wrong with our family? Did my eldest brother or third brother do something to incur the wrath of the Holy Lord?"

Gu An shook his head, "No."

When Bai heard what Gu An said, her right eyelid twitched twice and a feeling of uneasiness passed through her heart.

"Princess Yunhua and Miss Liu are at Qinghe's place. Have they been notified?"

"My mother's people went there personally to pass on the message."

Gu Qinghe had just invited Madam Qian to bring the screen over, and Princess Yunhua naturally praised her a lot, which made Madam Qian, who was used to hearing compliments, feel a little embarrassed.

"I am honored that the princess does not despise me. I don't deserve such praise from you anymore." Madam Qian bowed with a smile.

Yunhua waved his hands openly, "When I speak, I never hold anything back. If something is good, I will praise it."

Liu Yinshuang approached Gu Qinghe and laughed softly, "Look, she said she was fat, and she's even out of breath."

"Who are you saying is fat? You really don't see my slender waist?" Yunhua said.

While they were teasing, Yingchun came forward and said, "Miss, someone is coming from the old lady's courtyard."

Princess Yunhua and Liu Yinshuang also stopped bickering and listened to the newcomer. "Greetings to the Princess, Miss Liu, and Third Miss, the old lady said you should follow the Second Master and Second Madam to the front yard."

"What are you doing in the front yard?" Gu Qinghe asked. Female family members usually don't go to the front yard, especially since the mother hasn't finished her confinement yet. Now she has to go out again. It's autumn and the wind is cold.

"In reply to the Third Miss, this old servant does not know the answer. I will just pass on the message to all the masters."

Upon hearing this, Princess Yunhua fell into deep thought. There were two possibilities for the female family members to go to the front yard. One was to confiscate their property and exile them to make things easier for them. Of course, this was impossible. Gu An was a good official who had the emperor's favor. Besides, if something really happened, the prince would not sit idly by. So there was only the second possibility left, which was that the imperial decree to grant marriage had arrived?

Gu Qinghe's expression darkened slightly, and he said apologetically, "Princess, Yinshuang, I can't accompany you right now. How about we stop here today?"

"Okay, you go to the front first, and Princess Yunhua and I will clean up." Liu Yinshuang said softly, looking at the handkerchief in Gu Qinghe's hand being tightly grasped, and patted her back, as if to comfort her.

Gu Qinghe took Yingchun out, and Wangchun was left behind to serve Princess Yunhua and Liu Yinshuang.

"Today, wasn't this something you two planned? You first came to hold Qinghe back, and then your cousin, the Crown Prince, went to ask the Emperor for an imperial decree." Liu Yinshuang said, "You've really woven quite a web. As a fellow woman, don't you feel pity for Qinghe?"

"Oh my God, I am so innocent. I had no idea there was such a thing as an imperial edict. If I lied, then wait until the day I get married, and then a thunderbolt will strike my husband to death." Yun Hua raised three fingers seriously.

"Then you were taken advantage of?"

"Although I don't want to admit it, I was sent here by my brother. However, he was at home today and did not meet the prince." Yunhua was so anxious that he didn't even call him cousin, trying his best to distance himself from the matter.

"But is it so hard to accept being the Crown Princess?" Yun Hua muttered, "Ruan Liuzheng has already packed up and gone home, and the Crown Prince said he doesn't want a concubine, nor does he have a maid. You know, even a princess has a maid."

Seeing Yunhua like this, Liu Yinshuang also spoke to comfort her, "You are a princess. It would be easy for you to deal with a concubine. Don't sigh. This is the reality. Accept it first, and then work hard to change it. That's the right thing to do."

"You said it well. Let me tell Qinghe this later if it is really an imperial decree granting marriage." Yunhua said.

In the front yard, when Gu Qinghe's family arrived, the first and third wives of the Gu family had already arrived early. The one who came to convey the imperial eunuch was Sun Guang, the chief eunuch beside the emperor. At this time, he was sitting in the seat of honor drinking tea.

"Master Gu..." Sun Guang saw Gu An coming, stood up and walked over, greeting him with a smile on his face.

Seeing the exceptional enthusiasm shown by Manager Sun towards her second son, Mrs. Gu became even more certain of what she had in mind: the imperial edict was for her little granddaughter.

Wang was also wondering in her heart. You know, just now, when this Manager Sun saw Gu Hong, he was also very enthusiastic, even more warm than to his elder brother who had a higher official position.

Seeing her second brother now, she was even more enthusiastic. The first thought in Wang's mind was that it would be better for a man to hold a higher official position.

However, for the Imperial Chamberlain, even if he was a high-ranking official, he had to smile and talk to him when he met him. There was no Imperial Chamberlain who would take the initiative to flatter him.

Gu Ruoxing was looking at Gu Qinghe at the moment. Her third sister seemed unhappy. She thought to herself, that's good, as long as her third sister is unhappy, then she will be happy.

"Since everyone is here, let's receive the order." Sun Guang looked at the dozen or so people present and said with a smile.

As soon as Sun Guang finished speaking, the people of the Gu family knelt on the ground.

"It is God's destiny, the emperor decreed:

I have heard that the greatest virtue of heaven and earth is life, and that the rise of ritual and music begins with husband and wife. Marriage is a matter of great importance to the state and ancestral temples, and the foundation of the peace of the family and nation. Now, there is a dignified, elegant, kind, and well-mannered woman, Gu Qinghe, of gentle character, of equal age to the Crown Prince, and a perfect match in both talent and appearance. It is truly a match made in heaven.

In view of this, I hereby grant, in accordance with Heaven's will, the marriage between Gu Qinghe and the Crown Prince, hoping for everlasting harmony, numerous offspring, and everlasting blessings. I decree this."

As soon as Sun Guang finished speaking, he closed the bright yellow imperial edict and moved it in front of Gu Qinghe.

Gu Qinghe didn't raise his head for a moment, and it was Old Lady Gu who spoke, "Qinghe, are you so happy that you've gone mad? Hurry up and accept the order. Otherwise, Manager Sun will think you're going to disobey the order.

Gu Qinghe then reached out to take it, hesitatingly saying, "This humble servant accepts the order and kowtows to thank the emperor for his grace."
