Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Chapter 5 Ask your father to find you a young talent

Madam Li replied with a smile, and then she took Mrs. Bai aside to chat about family matters.

Gu Yueru from the first wife's house also talked to Gu Qinghe about the latest popular clothing styles and head ornaments in the capital.

"Third sister, this year all the young ladies from aristocratic families go to Xiangyue Tower to buy jewelry. There is only one piece of each style, so you will never have the same piece as others, and it can also be custom-made." Gu Yueru said with a smile.

Third Madam Wang and Gu Ruoxing sat on one side, looking angry.

Finally, it was the old lady who spoke up, "Your third sister just came back and hasn't been able to go out for a walk. Why don't you two be guides tomorrow and take Qinghe out for some fun."

Gu Yueru replied with a smile, and Gu Ruoxing also said "OK" in a muffled voice.

At the beginning of the evening, Mrs. Gu said she felt a little tired, and the others then said goodbye.

Gu Qinghe and her mother, Mrs. Bai, were on their way back to Yuquan Courtyard. Mrs. Bai was pregnant again after more than ten years, so she walked more carefully than usual.

Gu Qinghe supported her mother's arm and said softly, "Mother, I didn't think much of it before, but after my second sister reminded me today, should I talk about marriage?"

Bai obviously didn't expect her daughter to speak so bluntly. She was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

"No wonder people say that girls should not be kept when they grow up. If they are kept, they will become enemies. You haven't even reached the age of marriage yet, but you are already thinking about getting married. Aren't you ashamed?" Mrs. Bai said, smiling and patting her daughter's arm.

"Mother, you and father love each other. I also want to find someone who treats me well, just like you." As Gu Qinghe spoke, he blushed in front of his mother.

Sure enough, no matter how old you are mentally, you are still a child in front of your mother.

Hearing this, Bai said softly, "Okay, okay, mother won't laugh at you anymore. Go back to the capital and ask your father to pick a talented young man for you."

Gu Qinghe nodded, "Okay, tell dad to hurry!"

"Okay, we'll find it tomorrow, okay?" Mrs. Bai said with a smile. After watching her daughter enter the room, she returned to her own residence.

Gu An had finished washing up and was sitting on the edge of the couch reading a book, but his face was solemn.

Mrs. Bai walked over and took the book from his hand. "Husband, I see you look worried. Did you have an unpleasant conversation with your eldest and third brothers?"

Gu An's expression softened as he watched his wife approach. He considered for a moment before speaking, "Madam, my eldest brother mentioned today that the palace is selecting a concubine for the crown prince, and he wants our Qinghe to go with them."

Upon hearing this, Bai leaned back, crossed her arms over her chest, and asked seriously, "You agree?"

Gu An waved his hands repeatedly, "I dare not take the initiative without consulting Madam. Besides, I don't think there is anything the Crown Princess can do."

A smile finally appeared on Bai's face. "You know the importance of this. If the eldest and third brothers want to climb the high branches in the palace, then let them do it. But Qinghe is not yet of age."

Gu An nodded with a look of joy on his face, as if he had found an excuse to refuse, and was very happy.

"Also, Qinghe just said that she hopes to find a husband who can be like you and me, and that the two of them can be loyal to each other until old age. If you don't find one, she will go to the list to find a husband-in-law." Bai's face became a little red as she spoke.

When Gu An heard that his daughter actually thought so, he coughed lightly twice, put his arm around Bai Shi, and tried to hide his embarrassment, because he was the one caught by the Bai family under the list.

"Then I will keep an eye out for suitable young talents. Please also be careful when interacting with the ladies."

Bai nodded and said softly, "Okay."

East Palace

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xiao Jingheng was reading a secret letter written by the spy he had sent out.

The note read, "The Minister of War colluded with the King of Jin, secretly stationed troops and cast ironware..."

After reading it, Xiao Jingheng crumpled the note into a ball, opened the lampshade, and watched the note burn to ashes.

Fortunately, he had another chance to prevent this catastrophe. It was during this palace coup that Gu blocked an arrow for him. His arm would be in unbearable pain whenever it was cloudy and rainy.

Gu family······

Has Han Desheng not found out anything yet? Or is Gu Qinghe hiding at home and never going out?

"Your Highness, I have something to report to you." Han Desheng bowed and said at the door of the palace.

"Come in and talk." Xiao Jingheng waved his hand.

"Your Highness, I have now got some clues about the matter you asked me to secretly visit the Gu family." Han Desheng said as he looked at his master's expression, which was a little more relaxed than before.

It wasn't that he was slacking off, it was just that the second branch of the Gu family was too pure, and he couldn't figure out the prince's intentions, so he delayed for some time, wanting to find out more information.

"Speak." It was just one word, but Han Desheng could hear the Crown Prince's urgency. Could it be his illusion?

After all, the Gu family has always been considered on the fringe of the capital's aristocracy and has never had any intersection with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Your Highness, the second master of the Gu family has been serving as the prefect of Dengzhou. He received excellent evaluations this year, so he returned to the capital and is waiting for the appointment from the Ministry of Personnel. The people of Dengzhou are full of praise for this prefect." Han Desheng said.

Xiao Jingheng listened to Han Desheng's words patiently and nodded from time to time. Seeing the prince's affirmative reaction, Han Desheng couldn't help but talk about everything in detail.

"To be honest, Gu An is also a romantic. He has no concubines and now only has one daughter..." When Han Desheng said this, he saw that the prince was listening very seriously.

Then he continued, "Because of this, Madam Bai was still criticized, but now I heard that she is pregnant."

Xiao Jingheng only heard one sentence related to Gu Qinghe from Han Desheng's mouth, and then he started talking about Gu An's way of being an official.

Han Desheng's selflessness was mainly due to such a good official, which made people happy to hear. After all, if he had met such a kind official when he was a child, he might not have been sent to the palace to be a eunuch.

"Okay, what I want to know is what happened to their family after they returned to the capital. I don't want to hear you bragging about Yue...his political achievements. These are all written in the evaluation of the Ministry of Personnel." Xiao Jingheng waved his hand impatiently and said.

"Yes, I'm sorry for talking too much. If we talk about what happened when they returned to Beijing, it was that they ran into the old princess." Han Desheng said.

Hearing this, Jamel Xiao coughed lightly, then picked up the teacup, but his eyes were fixed on Han Desheng, waiting for his next sentence.

"The old princess met the two daughters of the first and third wives of the Gu family. She heard that Gu An's daughter was tired from traveling and couldn't meet the guests. The old princess felt that there was no fate between them, so she simply left.

What a pity! People say that Gu An's daughter is one of the most beautiful women in Dengzhou. I wonder who is more beautiful, her or the young lady from the Ruan family?

After hearing this, Xiao Jingheng answered in his heart that objectively speaking, Gu was more beautiful.
