Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry
Chapter 24 Don’t you dare look at the girl?
"I'm fine. You shouldn't be disrespectful in front of the Empress Dowager," Old Lady Gu said in a low voice. "Also, when you get home, grandma will have someone make you some snacks. Don't eat them yet."
"Yes." Gu Qinghe replied with a smile. At this moment, it seemed that her grandmother was quite interesting.
"The prince has arrived—" As soon as the eunuch's voice fell at the door, Xiao Jingheng appeared at the door.
He immediately saw Gu Qinghe, who was smiling with her head down. The morning sunlight shining in made her look particularly bright and beautiful.
Gu Qinghe's smile froze on his face until he saw a pair of black cloud-patterned boots stop directly in his sight. Then he came to his senses and stood up with everyone else, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Jamel Xiao said softly, "Hmm," "No need to be polite."
"Why is the prince here today?" The Empress Dowager noticed that Xiao Jingheng glanced subtly at the girl from the Gu family who had not spoken since she came in and paid her respects, and asked with a faint smile.
"It's been a long time since I last saw the Empress Dowager. Your grandson is here to pay his respects to you." Xiao Jingheng bowed.
It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is handsome and elegant. Today, it turns out that the rumors are true. The other two girls in the palace blushed.
Gu Qinghe's eyes were fixed on the ground the whole time, and his face showed no emotion at all when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came over.
Even if she resented him, it was a matter of the past life. The two of them had nothing to do with each other in this life, and she didn't want to have any intersection with him. Besides, at this time, Xiao Jingheng was probably trying every means to clear the obstacles and live together with his cousin, right?
Xiao Jingheng held the teacup but didn't drink the tea. He just looked at his Crown Princess, who was sitting there obediently with her eyes fixed on the ground, as if she was going to stare a big hole in the main hall of Shoukang Palace.
Are these floor tiles so beautiful? So beautiful that you can’t take your eyes off them?
Or was she embarrassed to look at herself? After all, there were several strangers here?
When Xiao Jingheng thought of this, an idea came to him. He looked at the Empress Dowager and coughed twice.
The Queen Mother looked at the Prince and glanced towards the door. Naturally, she knew what he was thinking. She ignored him and continued talking to someone else.
"Madam Gu, the granddaughter you brought into the palace with you today is the daughter of the late emperor's final candidate for the imperial examination." The Empress Dowager said with a faint smile, "Step forward a few steps and let me take a look."
Gu Qinghe had been pretending to be invisible, looking forward to leaving the palace. But when she heard the Empress Dowager calling her name, she had no choice but to stand up, take two steps forward, and bow, "Gu Qinghe, daughter of Gu An, pays her respects to the Empress Dowager."
Well, seeing that you walked, spoke, and saluted appropriately, the Queen Mother smiled with satisfaction and nodded, "You just returned to the capital, and this is your first time in the palace. I guess you are not familiar with it, so you are talking less. But when I hear your voice, I feel happy."
"Your Majesty the Queen Mother, thank you for your kind words." Gu Qinghe hurriedly tried to distance herself from the matter.
"It's okay, you'll be fine once you get used to it. I'm not a harsh person." The Queen Mother said, and patted Gu Qinghe's hand in a soothing manner, "Go back and sit down to talk. If you stand for too long, I'm afraid your grandmother will be distressed." And my grandson...
Gu Qinghe tried to hold on to the smile on her face. I know you are not a demanding person, but I don’t want to get familiar with the palace anymore, because I am so familiar with it that I can’t be more familiar with it. She knows every dog hole in the palace that needs to be repaired...
Xiao Jingheng watched Gu Qinghe's actions and always felt that something was strange. He then looked at the other two girls in the palace. They both seemed to be trying to please the Empress Dowager, but she looked like she wanted to escape from the palace. She was also perfunctory in responding to the Empress Dowager's praise.
He is too familiar with how his wife behaves when she is being perfunctory...
Is it this environment that makes her uncomfortable?
The Empress Dowager looked at Gu Qinghe, thinking it was just a normal compliment, and called out to her from the side.
"Mrs. Lin—"
"Yes." Nanny Lin smiled and gave a few instructions to the maid behind her, and then saw three maids coming over with trays.
"These are all little gadgets. You girls can take them home and play with them." The Queen Mother waved her hand, and the maids came over with trays in front of the girls.
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for the reward."
The Queen Mother smiled and waved her hand, looking at the other two girls, "You have been to the palace more often, but the third girl of the Gu family is entering the palace for the first time. I want to talk to her for a while."
They are all discerning people. Even if they want to witness the prince's grace, they have to say goodbye.
"Then let Miss Gu talk to you for a while, and we'll go back first."
The Queen Mother nodded and glanced at Nanny Lin, who smiled and went out to see her off.
Only the empress dowager, the prince, Old Madam Gu, and Gu Qinghe were left in the hall. No one spoke. Old Madam Gu wanted to speak but didn't know what to say.
"Miss Gu San, when you mentioned your father just now, it reminded me that the day the spring list was announced was the prince's birthday. This can be considered as fate." The empress dowager smiled on her face, but she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She finally found a topic to talk about.
"This means that it was a good day. The ministers were chosen to serve the country, and the prince was also born on that day." Gu Qinghe said with a faint smile.
There were so many children born on that day. Even if it was fate, it was the fate between the prince and her father, and had nothing to do with her.
Because, at that time, her mother had just caught her father, and they hadn’t had their wedding night yet...
When Gu Qinghe thought of this, she couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth. After realizing it, she pursed her lips again. Naturally, such a change was seen by Xiao Jingheng who was opposite her.
Perhaps it was because there were no misunderstandings or conflicts between the two of them in this life. If they were to meet again, he would mostly think of the good memories. He also owed her a lot. Xiao Jingheng only felt that she was smart.
While drinking tea, Gu Qinghe took a look at the Dog Prince. As expected, he was wearing a light yellow dragon robe and looked a bit like the khaki dog raised in the Dengzhou government office, but he looked better.
Xiao Jingheng met Gu Qinghe's gaze, and unconsciously straightened his back, lowered his chin, and tilted his left cheek, which had been caressed by her many times.
Han Desheng stood behind the prince, observing Miss Gu across from him. Sure enough, a beauty is beautiful whether she smiles or not. But what is his prince doing? Is he showing off his looks?
Someone once said, "What's the point of a man having a handsome appearance? It's better to have more strength."
Xiao Jingheng noticed that Gu Qinghe, who was sitting opposite him, met his gaze, and after that moment, she never looked at him again. She didn't blush, and her face and ears didn't turn red. She was always shy in the first few years of her marriage.
He looked down at himself and thought there must be something wrong with the color of the clothes.
"Grandmother, I suddenly remembered that I have something to deal with. I will come to accompany you another day." Xiao Jingheng stood up and said.
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "Go ahead."
Go away quickly. You are useless here. You don’t even dare to look at the girl openly, let alone talk to her. What a loser!
