Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

On the second day of May, Xiao Jingheng personally left the city to pick up Prince Jin and bring him to the capital. Gu Qinghe went to Yongshou Palace, waiting for the Princess of Jin to come with two concubines to pay their respects to the Empress Dowager.

After the hour of Chen, the weather had become somewhat hot. Xiao Jingheng rode his horse and walked on the streets of the capital. The roadsides were hung with colorful flags, welcoming the King of Jin who had been guarding the border for the country back to the capital.

This was all arranged by Xiao Jingheng. Even though the benefits were gone, the good reputation still had to be given to Prince Jin.

A guard came on horseback to report, "Your Highness, the Prince of Jin's convoy is less than a mile from the city gate."

Xiao Jingheng nodded, holding the whip and pointing forward, "Ride faster and go pick up Prince Jin."

Upon hearing this, the guards in front and behind also sped up. The crowd watching the excitement on the street gathered in groups of three or four to talk as they watched the prince's figure walking away.

"Look at the magnanimity of our Crown Prince. He personally came out of the capital to welcome us. He will surely be a benevolent ruler in the future."

"Indeed, even the layout of this street was ordered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"You are being too absolute. The prince might have done this just to make you say that."

There were different opinions among the crowd, but that didn't stop them from watching the fun. After all, the struggles within the royal family had little impact on the lives of ordinary people.

At the city gate, Xiao Jingheng did not dismount. He looked at the convoy not far away. As it approached, the corners of his mouth curled up appropriately. "It's good that you're back."

When the King of Jin was less than two miles away from the city gate, he got off the carriage and rode into the city on horseback. He did not expect that the person who came to pick him up was the prince.

Humph, are you trying to be nice after getting an advantage?

He also smiled and came to the city gate. He first glanced at the prince on horseback, and then the two of them dismounted almost at the same time.

Even the polite words came out almost at the same time.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Prince Jin has traveled a long way back to the capital and must have had some hardship. My father specially asked me to go out of the city to welcome you." Xiao Jingheng said with a faint smile.

"Thank you, His Majesty, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, for your concern. The supplies along the way have been arranged very appropriately." Prince Jin said with a smile.

Princess Jin, who was in the carriage, was puzzled as to why the carriage was parked outside the city and still standing. "Let's see what's going on?"

The maid stuck her head out and saw the prince in a dragon robe, then quickly shrank back, "Princess, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, coming to pick you and the prince up."

The little maid smiled happily. After all, it was better to be a maid in the royal palace in the capital. At least she was closer to her family and didn't have to suffer from hardships.

Xiao Jingheng noticed the movement of the carriage and smiled, "Let's go back to the palace quickly. The Empress Dowager and the Crown Princess are also waiting for Princess Jin in Yongshou Palace."

The motorcade started moving again. Xiao Jingheng and Prince Jin rode their horses on the street. People on the street shouted "Long live the prince" and sang praises to Prince Jin's achievements. It looked very harmonious.

However, only the parties involved know what is going on, while others are just watching the superficial excitement.

Sitting in the third carriage was Gu Ruoxing. Her face was pale and she looked very uncomfortable.

Prince Jin was recalled to the capital. The journey was not urgent, but it was still a bit too much for her as she was less than three months pregnant.

"Concubine, please be patient. We have already entered the capital. I have seen all the shops you took me to before." Xing'er said as she lifted the curtain of the carriage window a little to allow some air to flow into the carriage.

Concubine Gu was suffering from severe morning sickness, and the smell in the carriage was really unpleasant.

Gu Ruoxing nodded, with joy in her eyes. Now that she was back in Beijing, she finally had someone to rely on.

After settling down, he asked someone to return to the palace to deliver a letter to his mother, inviting her to come to the Prince of Jin's palace to see him.

When I was pregnant, I missed my mother more than usual. Maybe it was because I felt so bad that I remembered how hard it was for my mother when she was pregnant with me.

Thinking of this, Xing'er felt nauseous again. She quickly found a spittoon from the corner of the carriage and stroked her back with her other hand.

"Hey? The Crown Princess's second cousin is sitting in this carriage, right?" Someone in the crowd of onlookers said.

"That's right. Last year, the Emperor issued an imperial decree. The two girls of the Gu family, the second girl became the concubine of the Prince of Jin, and the third girl became the Crown Princess. Who knows what the Emperor thinks?"

The girls of the same family were forcibly divided into different levels.

"Originally, when these two girls were arranging their own marriages, there was a difference in status. One was the daughter of the Minister of Personnel, beautiful and with a generous dowry, while the other was the daughter of a seventh-rank official, whose mother was not well off."

Gu Ruoxing was very sensitive at the time. When she heard this, she even forgot about vomiting. She lifted the curtain and took a look outside. "Humph, you look down on people. What's the point of distinguishing between different classes? I have the emperor's grandson in my belly."

"Concubine, you're so angry. I'm worried about the miscarriage." Xing'er helped Gu Ruoxing sit down.

When the carriage arrived at the gate of the palace, everyone had to dismount and walk into the palace.

Princess Jin got off the first carriage, and Prince Jin came over and said, "Today is your first time meeting the Crown Princess. Pay more attention and see what kind of woman she is."

Princess Jin raised her hand and patted the unnecessary wrinkles on Prince Jin's shoulder. "Your Highness, please rest assured. I grew up reading military books."

Upon hearing this, Prince Jin chuckled twice, "Yes, you are such an excellent princess that I sometimes forget you are from a military family."

"Your Highness, go see your father. Don't be anxious."

Prince Jin nodded and walked towards the Crown Prince with a smile on his face. "Sorry to have kept you waiting. This is the first time your princess is meeting the Crown Princess today, so she's a little nervous. I'd like to have a few words with her."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingheng laughed out loud and said, "Prince Jin is indeed considerate. He even cares about the relationship between the sisters-in-law."

Han Desheng stood behind the prince. When he heard what the prince said, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart. I don't know if the person who introduced the Princess of Jin to the princess in detail this morning is the prince...

Upon hearing this, Prince Jin smiled and said, "It's the same for you. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very considerate of the Crown Princess. Before the wedding, he even raised his fists against his brothers for her."

Xiao Jingheng responded to the King of Jin's smile, "Of course, if you're a man, you won't joke about women; if you're a man, you won't tolerate others making fun of your woman."

The two of them just talked with a smile, even though they were unhappy in their hearts, they still had smiles on their faces.

Sun Guang came over at this time again, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Prince of Jin, the Emperor is already waiting for you two in the palace."
