The daughter of the first wife grew up in the countryside and was extremely powerful

Meng Hewan had been trying hard to suppress her inner grievances and pain, but when she heard Lvliu's concerned voice, all her emotions burst out in an instant.

Finally, she could no longer restrain herself and threw herself into Lvliu's warm arms, crying like a child.

That night, everyone in the palace knew that something unpleasant had happened between the prince and the princess in the room, which led to the prince angrily slapping the princess in the face halfway through the bridal chamber and going straight to the concubine's room.

The entire princess's courtyard seemed to be shrouded in a dull and depressing atmosphere.

Some people also vividly described how the maids and servants in the concubine's courtyard carried water back and forth several times that night, implying how much the prince doted on this concubine.

Even the tea ceremony on the second day was cancelled. What was even more shocking was that the prince transferred the power of managing household affairs to the concubine without hesitation.

In this way, everyone knew that the princess was not favored by the prince.

The news spread quickly throughout the palace as if it had wings, and then reached the capital at an astonishing speed. However, Gu Fanchu, who learned the news, was no longer surprised.

At this moment, Meng Hewan must have deeply experienced the pain of being hated and despised, and being inferior to others no matter where she went.

But at this moment she didn't have time to pay attention to the affairs of this couple, because she was preparing for hunting.

It wasn't that she wanted to prepare, but she had to prepare because she couldn't resist the coercion of Wang and Li.

Although they were engaged, according to Wang, no one outside was optimistic about her marriage to Shi Jinyan. There were rumors everywhere, saying that how could a woman like her with no talent and no virtue marry the dream lover of millions of girls in the capital.

There were even some rumors that the old general used his merits to force Shi Jinyan to marry.

As the person involved, Gu Fanchu did not react at all, however, the people in the general's mansion did not think so.

In their hearts, Chu'er is like a little fairy who has come to the mortal world. She is not only sensible and filial, but also has an outstanding appearance and is perfect.

If we really have to say who is unworthy of whom, it must be Shi Jinyan who is marrying up to his own Chu'er.

Of course, this is just what family members think.

Because of this idea, the women in the general's mansion were even more determined to dress Gu Fanchu up to look as beautiful as a fairy.

What's more, Shi Jinyan has to come and pick him up in person.

Just the day before departure, Wang and her second aunt, who was pregnant and had some difficulty moving but was still in high spirits, came to Lingxi Pavilion together.

As soon as the two entered the door, they couldn't wait to show off several sets of dresses that they had carefully prepared, and then enthusiastically invited Gu Fanchu to try them on one by one.

Every time they put on a new outfit, they would look at it carefully, selecting everything from the color to the style and even the details of the decoration.

The pearl hairpins and jewelry placed on the tray beside were carefully inserted into Gu Fanchu's black and shiny hair one by one.

Some pearl hairpins are inlaid with dazzling gems, sparkling with charming light;

Some have unique shapes and are lifelike, like lively butterflies resting in the hair.

With the embellishment of each piece of jewelry, Gu Fanchu's originally beautiful and elegant face became even more bright and charming, making people fall in love with her.

But Gu Fanchu felt as if she had turned into a mobile jewelry display stand, and the heavy weight almost crushed her neck.

She stared intently at the dresses on her body one after another. Not only were the designs extremely intricate and complicated, but the colors were also bright and gorgeous.

Finally, Gu Fanchu, who could no longer bear it, opened his mouth and said:

"My dear aunts, Chu'er is going to participate in the hunting activity this time! Look at these extremely luxurious fabrics and such complicated skirts. I'm really worried that she won't be able to even draw the bowstring later..."

As she said this, she sighed helplessly.

Looking at Gu Fanchu in the mirror again at this time, she was as cute and adorable as a carefully carved doll.

However, although this outfit was beautiful, it actually made it difficult for her to even take a step.

Wang, who was standing by, saw this and could not help but give the pretty girl a cold look. She stretched out her hand, pointed at Gu Fanchu's little head with disapproval, and muttered:

"You, as a girl, why are you going hunting? The Grand Tutor will personally deliver the prey to you. All you have to do is sit there quietly and look beautiful, and you will easily surpass everyone else!"

Gu Fanchu, who wanted to show off his archery skills: "..."

Is this about becoming a refined lady?

She looked eagerly at her second aunt: Second aunt, help...

Li Nanyi looked at her gently:

However, Li Nanyi smiled gently, touched Gu Fanchu's hair gently, and said softly:

"Chu'er, you must be obedient. Although I, your second aunt, am a child of the Jianghu and have never been particular about trivial matters, when your second uncle and I were in love, I was also full of joy thinking about dressing myself up as beautiful as a fairy.

After all, as a girl, who doesn't want to show her most charming side in front of the one she loves? As for archery, you can practice it anytime, but tomorrow will be different. You just need to be beautiful.

After hearing this, Gu Fanchu sighed helplessly. Even though he was unwilling in his heart, he knew that he could not go against the wishes of his two aunts.

In the end, she nodded obediently to show her agreement.

The next day, after careful dressing up, Gu Fanchu turned into a moving "vase doll", exuding a beauty from head to toe that was hard to ignore.

But at this moment, there was not much happiness on her face.

Even when walking, I can only take small steps.

His Majesty will also bring the Queen and concubines to participate in this hunting trip, and my aunt will also go with them.

The old lady missed her daughter, so naturally she had to go.

Li Nanyiyi was about to give birth and had difficulty moving around, so she stayed at home in fear of something happening.

At the gate of the general's mansion, Gu Xunzhou caught a glimpse of Gu Fanchu, who was dressed up today.

Gu Fanchu was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had delicate makeup on. She was as eye-catching as a beautiful blooming flower.

But the cautious way he walked, coupled with his slow pace, looked really funny.

Gu Xunzhou couldn't help but burst out laughing.

But who would have thought that as soon as he smiled, he instantly felt several extremely sharp gazes shooting towards him.

Those gazes were like cold rays, icy and piercing, making people shudder.

Gu Xunzhou's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself that something was wrong. He quickly put away the smile on his face and became serious, fearing that he would attract more dissatisfied looks.
