Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

As the days approached the Mid-Autumn Festival, the festive atmosphere in the capital became much stronger, but along with this cheerful atmosphere, two rumors also emerged.

One is that the Crown Princess seems to have been contaminated with something unclean, otherwise why would she be so unwilling and refuse the Crown Prince's favor?

This is enormous wealth.

Another story is that the third wife of the Gu family was warned by God for fabricating rumors, which led to a fire in the place where she lived.

"Well, which one do you think is right?"

"Is there even a need to ask? Of course, it's true that Wang Shi was punished by heaven. You know, she was sent to a farm outside Beijing by the Third Master of the Gu family several months ago."

"That's true. I guess he's already lost his mind."

"That's right. She dares to say anything. She really thinks our Crown Princess has a good temper and doesn't want to offend the elders of her mother's family. She has set up a soup kitchen and even taken in women to learn embroidery. Where can we find such a fairy?"

"That's right, even if there's something unusual going on, it's probably a deity possessing him."

You talk back and forth, and your saliva can drown someone.

Wang was at home at this time, waiting for good news, waiting for Gu Qinghe to come home to celebrate the first birthday of her brother who was fifteen or sixteen years younger than her, and to see her face.

Children’s birthdays are usually celebrated in advance, and Gu An has already said that he doesn’t plan to make a big deal about it.

On the second day of August, after leaving court, Xiao Jingheng hurried back to the East Palace. Gu Qinghe was dressing in front of the mirror.

Han Desheng made a "silence" gesture towards Zhang Jinbao, and Xiao Jingheng stood by the door, looking at the Crown Princess quietly.

Wangchun's technique was very skillful. She tied up the Crown Princess's hair into a snake bun, inserted a golden phoenix hairpin into her hair, and took out a hairpin with a peony engraved on it as an embellishment.

Xiao Jingheng's eyes followed Gu Qinghe's hand and saw her stretch out her finger, dip a little bright red rouge from the rouge box, gently dot it on her cheek, and then slowly spread it out. Suddenly, her cheeks were like blooming peach blossoms.

Further down is the fair and slender neck, which also attracts his lips and tongue.

Suddenly, Xiao Jingheng noticed that the Crown Princess frowned, and when he saw where her gaze rested, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Last night, he got into trouble. There were several red marks the size of peach pits on the right side of the Crown Princess's neck. He took a look at them when he got up this morning.

At that time, Xiao Jingheng still had some hope in his heart, because it was much less than usual.

Gu Qinghe frowned and ordered Yingchun, "Go get some powder quickly to cover these marks. You're in a hurry to go out, and you're really holding me back."

The weather is still very hot, and wearing high-necked clothes or a scarf will only make things more obvious.

Yingchun held back her laughter, answered yes, and ran out. After two steps, she found a tall man standing at the door.

Uh, isn't this the one who's holding us back that the Crown Princess just mentioned?

The smile on Yingchun's face suddenly grew wider, then immediately disappeared. She bowed and saluted: "This servant pays respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

As he said this, he glanced at Zhang Jinbao who was standing at the door. The latter was also feeling very aggrieved. The prince didn't allow him to speak, and he had no other choice.

Besides, isn't watching his wife dressing up a marital pleasure? This isn't the first time the prince has done this.

Gu Qinghe was inside and naturally heard it. She glanced at Xiao Jingheng in the mirror before standing up and saluting.

Unsurprisingly, Xiao Jingheng hurried forward and stopped her, "Qinghe, look, why can't you remember what I said?"

After Gu Qinghe thanked him, he chuckled and said, "Your Highness, aren't you the same? I told you to be more careful, did you pay attention?"

Xiao Jingheng knew in his heart that the Crown Princess was referring to the mark on her neck, and he quickly apologized with a smile, "The Crown Princess is teaching me that I didn't fully control myself this time. I should be more careful next time."

Gu Qinghe snorted softly and said nothing. Yingchun came over at that moment and said, "Crown Princess, there's much less today. It will be covered up soon."

Seeing Yingchun joining in, Xiao Jingheng hurried down the stairs and said, "Hurry up and help the Crown Princess get it done. Then we can happily go back to my father-in-law's house and celebrate my brother-in-law's birthday."

Han Desheng was listening at the door. Zhang Jinbao was standing opposite him, but he refused to raise his head. The prince was very shameless. No one in the entire East Palace dared to say anything.

However, as the chief steward of the Eastern Palace, he felt embarrassed for the Crown Prince.

The other princes, sons, and daughters were almost a group, but his master was still busy marking the Crown Princess' neck and apologizing repeatedly.

"Han Desheng—" the prince's voice rang out, "What are you thinking about? I said I was leaving for the Gu Mansion."

Han Desheng quickly came back to his senses and said with a dull face: "I will think about it again and see if there are any missing gifts."

Xiao Jingheng said "hmm", and the Crown Princess also praised him, "Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Han. You have always been steady in your work."

"Thank you very much for the compliment, Princess." Han Desheng bent his body and followed behind the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.

The carriage of the Eastern Palace was driving on the streets of the capital, and from time to time one could hear the discussions of people on the street.

"Looking at the carriage from the East Palace, it seems to be heading to the Gu Mansion. What do you think, is the Crown Prince going there to support the Crown Princess?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingheng laughed twice and said with regret: "The people are all looking forward to it, but it's a pity that the Crown Princess is unwilling to give me this opportunity."

Gu Qinghe nodded and smiled, "Your Highness, I am very busy on weekdays. I can handle these small matters casually. There is no need to trouble Your Highness."

Xiao Jingheng still smiled and gently stroked the back of the Crown Princess's hand, "I know the Crown Princess's ability, but you should rely on your husband. You don't have to work hard on your own. I will always be by your side."

"I've got that in mind." Gu Qinghe said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage changed direction and arrived at the alley where the Gu Mansion was located.

Because it was not an important trip like returning to the parents' home, Gu Qinghe and Xiao Jingheng traveled light and informed the Gu Mansion two days in advance, so there was no need for a grand welcome.

Only the eldest wife and her husband, Gu An, Bai Shi, and Gu Hong, along with a few older men, were waiting at the door.

The carriage stopped, Xiao Jingheng got off first, and then Gu Qinghe grabbed his forearm and jumped down.

Bai and Li looked at each other tacitly and nodded. Well, looking at Qinghe's agile and free-spirited movements, they knew that she was not pregnant yet.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess." Everyone knelt down and kowtowed, greeting loudly.

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, uncles, aunts, please stand up quickly. We have a family dinner today." Xiao Jingheng said as he and Gu Qinghe helped Gu An and Bai respectively.
