Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Chapter 85 There is always a girl with a heart of stone

Old Mrs. Gu sat on the side, listening to the heated argument between her two daughters-in-law.

Gu Ruoxing was crying like a tearful person again, while Gu Qinghe was sitting there quietly, not making any excuses, looking invulnerable.

"Mother, sister-in-law, sister-in-law." Gu An took advantage of the time when no one was talking and walked into the hall. He sat next to Bai and gently patted the lady's hand, indicating that she need not be nervous.

Of course, Bai was not nervous, but she still appreciated her husband's concern and nodded slightly.

Li was envious of the interaction between her second brother and his wife, while Wang was very displeased. It was because they only had one child that they raised that girl, Gu Qinghe, who was so bold that she could beat up her sisters.

"Since you're here, let's listen together." Old Madam Gu finally spoke, "This matter originated from Ruoxing. She was rude and inappropriate, and Qinghe was forced into it..."

"Mother, you can't just favor my second brother because he has a bright future." Wang started crying again.

"Shut up. I'm just talking about the facts. I'm definitely not biased towards anyone. I didn't hit Qinghe just now, but I will also use family rules to punish him afterwards." Old Mrs. Gu slammed the table hard.

"Ruoxing, go back and copy the Women's Instructions a thousand times. If you haven't finished, you can't leave the house." Old Madam Gu shouted.

"Yes." Gu Ruoxing responded with sobs and gave Gu Qinghe an angry look.

"If anyone hears about what happened today from other people, I will never let it go easily." After saying this, Mrs. Gu got up and went back to the inner room.

Everyone returned to their own courtyard with their own thoughts. Bai asked Gu Qinghe what Gu Ruoxing had just said, but she did not answer.

"Mom, go back and have some rest. I'll come over to have breakfast with you tomorrow morning," said Gu Qinghe.

Mrs. Bai knew she couldn't get the answer, so she simply nodded and glanced at her husband beside her, who nodded in agreement.

At 3 p.m., Wangchun was called to the master by the servant in the front yard, "This servant pays his respects to the master."

"Get up. I called you over here because I have something to ask you." Gu An put down the teacup in his hand and raised his hand.

"What did the second young lady say in the old lady's courtyard today?"

Wangchun lowered her head, bit her lips, and didn't want to say anything because the girl had told her not to tell the master or the mistress.

"I know you grew up with the girl, but I am her father and I will not harm her." Gu An said patiently.

"It's all the second young lady's fault. Earlier today, the old lady sent someone to invite the young lady over for a talk. The young lady told the eldest young lady that they were going on a Qixi Festival night tour together tomorrow to see if the capital was more lively than Dengzhou. The second young lady then started to mock her, saying that she hadn't seen much of the capital's scenery, while the man had been entangled in many things..."

With a "bang", Gu An slammed the desk, his palms turning red.

"The young lady didn't care at first, but the second young lady said that it was because you and the madam didn't teach the young lady well that this happened. The young lady asked her to shut up, but the third young lady became more and more excited, so the young lady took action..." It was the first time that Wangchun saw the master get angry. She tried her best to finish her words without shaking her voice, then looked out the door and wanted to slip away.

"Okay, I get it. Wipe your tears and go back quickly. Don't tell anyone you've been here." Gu An suppressed his anger and waved his hand. He then instructed the servant, "Please invite the Third Master over. I have something to say to him."

Unlike the quietness of the Gu Mansion, the streets outside were already decorated with lights and colors, preparing to welcome tomorrow's Chinese Valentine's Day. This atmosphere also infected the palace.

Yufu Palace

Concubine Li was sitting in front of the mirror, Ruan Liuzheng was dressing her, and Princess Wen'an was watching from the side.

"Cousin, when are you leaving the palace? You've been staying here for another half a month, right?" Wen An asked with a faint smile.

Ruan Liuzheng wore an unchanging smile, but a fire seemed to be burning inside her. She pretended not to understand Wen An's meaning, "I've been with my aunt for half a month, but it feels like only a few days. I really can't get enough of my time with my aunt."

Wen An laughed out loud, "My cousin treats my mother even better than I, her daughter, do."

"Princess Wen'an, what you said really embarrasses me." Ruan Liuzheng said.

"No, I'm telling the truth. After all, I can see that my cousin often goes to the palace because of her close relationship with my mother. It has nothing to do with others." Wen An said and was about to leave.

"Wen'an, your father said he would come over for dinner and asked you to join him. Where are you going now?" Concubine Li hurriedly turned around and called Wen'an.

As soon as the words fell, the palace servant outside announced loudly, "The Emperor has arrived——"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Li put Wen An aside and said to Ruan Liuzheng with a smile, "Liuzheng, the emperor is coming. Go back to the side hall quickly. Your aunt has asked someone to prepare your favorite lotus cakes for you."

After saying this, Concubine Li waved her hand. In Ruan Liuzheng's eyes, this action meant to drive her away.

"Okay, thank you, aunt." Ruan Liuzheng lowered her head, and the smile in her eyes disappeared. When she passed by Wen An, she saw the mockery in Wen An's eyes.

East Palace

In the past few days, Xiao Jingheng first visited the residence prepared for Prince Jin to come to Beijing, and then went to the camp of the capital's guard army, where he stayed for a few days. He did not return until the sixth day of July.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince is here. Ask him to wait for you in the study?" Han Desheng asked with a bow. The Crown Prince has not been in a good mood these days, and he has to be careful with his words.

Jamel Xiao hummed, threw the handkerchief in his hand into the basin, and said, "Let him wait a moment."

Xiao Jingheng changed into a python robe and went to the study, where he saw Xiao Yifei reading a military book.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Xiao Yifei stood up, bowed and said with a smile.

"Sit down and talk." Xiao Jingheng sat in the main seat, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Yifei heard that the Crown Prince was in a bad mood, but he didn't expect him to be so blunt. He smiled and said, "It's okay. I came to see if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has lost weight."

"If you have nothing to do, read some military books."

"Yes." Xiao Yifei did not argue with the prince this time, "However, there are problems that military books cannot solve..."

He dragged out his words, vowing to keep the secret to the end. Sure enough, he heard the prince ask impatiently, "What's the problem?"

"Of course it's what this woman is thinking. Women are like water, they are very gentle, and their minds are extremely delicate. They need to be cared for, not cunning or using military tactics. Only true feelings can move the true heart." Xiao Yifei coughed after he finished speaking.

After hearing this, Xiao Jingheng pondered for a few breaths, "Maybe?"

"Yes, there are always girls with hearts harder than stone." Xiao Yifei frowned and said, "However, I haven't seen such a girl yet. I don't know when I will be able to open my eyes to such a girl."

Han Desheng stood aside, and after hearing what the prince said, he lowered his head even more.
