Gu Ruoxing was originally wondering why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was interested in Gu Qinghe who had just returned from abroad. But just now, she saw that her third sister's tactics of playing hard to get were really effective.

Xing'er followed Gu Ruoxing, looked at her deeply, and said nothing. Her master was really getting worse and worse. She relied entirely on her imagination to look at problems.

If you still want to be the prince's woman, and you just enter the palace like this, isn't it a waste?

Of course, she felt that the Third Miss was more in favor of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. She had just seen it. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince secretly glanced at the Third Miss several times while drinking water. Unfortunately, the Third Miss kept her head down.

Han Desheng returned to the Crown Prince's side, bowed his body and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I have already delivered the letter safely to the hands of the third lady."

The word "Third Miss" attracted Lu Wangzhou, who was sitting in the corner next to her, to look over.

Inadvertently, he met Xiao Jingheng's eyes, and the two of them just stared at each other. After a few breaths, Lu Wangzhou looked away first.

"Let's talk about it later. There are too many people here." Xiao Jingheng said in a deep voice.

"Yes."

Finally, the men in the front yard also dispersed.

Lu Wangzhou watched the prince being escorted out by the crowd, and followed behind him. He suddenly remembered what Gu Qinghe had said to him: don't belittle yourself because of your background.

Yes, don’t people of humble origins even have the right to fight for themselves?

In order to listen to what Han Desheng said about Gu Qinghe, Xiao Jingheng gave up riding a horse and took a carriage instead.

"Tell me, what did Miss Gu San say to you just now? You are so excited." Xiao Jingheng asked as if he didn't care much.

"In reply to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I am excited, not because of what Miss Gu San said, but because of her every move and demeanor, just like someone who is used to being a master and servant. She is simply born to be a Crown Princess." Han Desheng chattered, gesturing slightly with his hands, and it was obvious that he was very excited.

Well, I subdued the chief steward of the East Palace in advance...

This is not a natural born Crown Princess, this is a Crown Princess reborn from heaven...

"I just asked you, what did Miss Gu San say?" Xiao Jingheng's face became serious when he spoke this time.

Han Desheng noticed the prince's change of expression and quickly put away his expectant smile. "Miss Gu San was reluctant to accept your letter at first, saying that it was a private exchange and not in accordance with etiquette. After my repeated insistence, she finally accepted it."

Jamel Xiao nodded with satisfaction, “What did she say?”

"Miss Gu San said she would just accept it but not read it." Han Desheng said, "However, I think people are curious, so Miss Gu San will definitely read it."

Xiao Jingheng frowned and casually pulled off the purse from his waist, "Ask Zhang Wu to deliver another thing."

"Yes." Han Desheng could see that the prince was determined to see someone.

Half an hour later, Zhang Wu felt confused as he weighed the Crown Prince's purse in his hand. This was the first time he had given someone a purse.

He has given away other people's heads several times...

Your Highness the Crown Prince is such a jerk. It's really a waste of talent to assign me this job.

Although the matter was small, it was troublesome. First, he could not show up, and second, he could not break into the third lady's boudoir. If he did so, he might give his life to the prince.

It would be better to throw it directly at the door and let Yingchun or Wangchun pick it up and bring it into the house, so that the third girl can naturally see it.

Zhang Wu thought of this and smiled conceitedly. He was indeed a clever martial artist.

Thinking of this, Zhang Wu did just that. He threw the purse casually, and it landed at the door of the third girl. As long as anyone came out, they would be discovered.

However, Zhang Wu thought it was simple. A door is something that can be used to come out and go in.

At this moment, Gu Ruoxing came over. She came to find out. Earlier today, she saw the eunuch beside the prince give a letter to Gu Qinghe in Lu Mansion.

She returned home and was restless. She wanted to know what was inside, so she came straight to the door.

The moment I knocked on the door, I lowered my head and saw a dark blue purse on the ground. It looked so familiar. Thinking carefully, wasn't this the purse that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was wearing today?

Gu Ruoxing silently pretended to sprain her ankle, squatted down and put the purse into her sleeve pocket, and let out an "ouch".

Gu Qinghe had originally closed the door and was guarding Bingjian in the house with two maids to enjoy the cool air. Who would have thought that he would hear Gu Ruoxing's voice.

She put down the bowl of ice in her hand, raised her chin, and motioned Yingchun to go out and take a look.

Yingchun pushed open the door and saw the second young lady standing at the door with Xing'er, looking weak. "Second young lady, why are you here?"

Gu Ruoxing was furious when she heard what the girl said. Couldn't she come over? This servant also followed his master and couldn't speak.

However, thinking of the purpose of her coming, she endured it for the time being. "I came to see my third sister. My eldest sister is getting married, and I thought I would give her something handmade to show our deep sisterly love."

Gu Qinghe saw the way Gu Ruoxing started looking around her room as soon as she entered the room, and she knew that the purpose of her coming here was not what she said.

In Gu Ruoxing's eyes, there is no such thing as sisterly love, only personal supremacy.

"If you have any good ideas, just tell me, or send someone to tell me. It would be a waste if you came here with great difficulty and then sprained your ankle." Gu Qinghe smiled and poured a cup of tea for Gu Ruoxing.

"Okay, I'm here to discuss this with you," Gu Ruoxing said, her gaze finally landing on the small couch where a piece of turquoise letter lay.

"Then let's embroider two screens and ask big sister to replace them according to the season. What do you think?" Gu Qinghe asked with a faint smile.

"Wangchun, you didn't work carefully and your second sister saw it. Why don't you clean up the clutter on the couch quickly?" Gu Qinghe ordered casually.

"Yes, I was careless." Wangchun said, and took the letter in her hand and put it in her sleeve pocket.

Gu Ruoxing looked at Wangchun's actions and sighed silently.

"Does Third Sister have any plans to go out recently?" Gu Ruoxing asked.

"Yes, Liu Yinshuang asked me to go and see Princess Yunhua." Gu Qinghe replied. He felt a little uneasy after not seeing Yunhua today, so it would be better to go and see her.

Zhang Wu, who was on the roof in the distance, witnessed the whole process of Gu Ruoxing picking up the prince's purse. He was so anxious that he scratched his head and hoped that Miss Gu San would not go to the party.

It would be better to at least wait until he steals the purse back before we talk about it.
