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

How could she give up such a rare opportunity to meet the Third Prince?

At this moment, when the other young ladies were leisurely admiring the flowers in the garden, Meng Hewan had probably already found an opportunity to invite the third prince.

However, this is also understandable. After all, Meng Hewan is still the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, and her engagement with the third prince is still valid.

But how could one not let people witness their poetic love? In his previous life, he had been ruthlessly slapped in the face over this matter, and even verbally abused by the Third Prince, becoming the laughing stock of everyone in the capital.

So this time, let Meng Hewan and the third prince also experience the pain!

Wasn't he still dreaming of ascending to that position? He wanted to see how a prince who had lost his reputation and the support of the General's Mansion, who was as unloved as a discarded blade of grass, could ascend to that position.

Thinking of this, a look of curiosity appeared on Gu Fanchu's face. He turned to look at Wang Yuyan beside him and said in a sweet voice, "I've just arrived in the capital. I heard that there's a beautiful artificial lake in this garden. Not only can you row a boat, but you can also go boating. It's really interesting! Why don't we go and take a look together!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a hint of sarcasm like a poisonous snake flashed in the eyes of some young ladies in the crowd, but because Gu Fanchu was in the limelight at the time, they did not dare to express this sarcasm easily.

However, Gu Fanchu's proposal was echoed by several young ladies. They had gone out today for other purposes, so why would they be trapped in this small pavilion?

So, everyone responded and walked out together. Along the way, they admired the beautiful flowers blooming in the yard, felt the breath of spring, and walked towards the lake.

There was an octagonal pavilion by the lake, right behind a rockery. As everyone passed through the rockery, they faintly heard a woman's charming voice: "Third Prince, Wan'er has received the jade Linglong you sent that day. It was such a precious gift, and Wan'er was uneasy about accepting it."

The group of young ladies who were about to leave stopped in their tracks instantly, with meaningful expressions on their faces.

A gentle voice was heard at this time: "Sister Wan'er, why are you worried? Mother specially asked me to give it to you. When you reach the age of marriage, I will come to propose marriage and let you marry me in glory."

At this time, everyone also recognized the people in the pavilion. One was the young lady Meng Hewan from the Marquis' Mansion, and the other was the third prince.

Gu Fanchu wore a faint smile as he calmly observed the scene before him, taking in the envy on the young ladies' faces. This young lady of the Marquis's Mansion, Meng Hewan, had been engaged to the Third Prince since childhood.

Although the Third Prince was not the most favored prince, being able to marry into the royal family was a supreme honor for many people. However, the jealousy of these people was meaningless, after all, Meng Hewan seized this rare opportunity.

However, Gu Fanchu secretly sneered in her heart. She knew the true face of the Third Prince very well - although he was deeply in love with Meng Hewan on the surface, he was secretly entangled with many young ladies from aristocratic families, including Meng Hewan's good friend Qin Mingzhu.

Qin Mingzhu thought she had hidden herself well, but unfortunately she was discovered by Meng Hewan in the end, framed, and eventually became infamous, and had to marry a playboy.

However, the third prince was not affected at all, and he moved up to a high position step by step.

At today's banquet, the Third Prince was still being intimate with Meng Hewan, but soon, she would be deeply in love with another woman. In her previous life, she had caught the Third Prince in action, but those two people took advantage of the situation and said that it was Gu Fanchu who seduced the Third Prince, thus ruining her reputation.

It was because of this that my grandfather's family thought they had fallen in love with the third prince and forced the marriage to be changed, which sowed the seeds of tragedy.

Over there, the Third Prince and Meng Hewan were still talking sweetly to each other in the pavilion. Meng Hewan felt that the Third Prince was simply the best gift God had given her. He was handsome and of noble status. Perhaps with his own intelligence and talent, he could even ascend to that high position!

The most important thing is that she is very infatuated with herself, and she must seize this opportunity of marriage.

Meng Hewan wanted to say something, but she heard a burst of women's laughter coming from the rockery. She looked over and saw that it was other noble ladies coming together, including Gu Fanchu.

She carefully examined the increasingly noble woman, but saw no trace of affection in her eyes. With a slight shift in her gaze, she formed a plan.

"Aren't these Miss Meng and the Third Prince? They are truly a perfect match!" Bai Yanwei said with a teasing tone.

Her father held an important position in the court, and she had a very good relationship with these princes and princesses, so others did not dare to speak at this time, but she could tease them.

The other ladies also agreed, but human hearts are unpredictable. Who knows who is sincere and who is fake?

"You've run out again. Where's your sister? Be careful at the flower viewing banquet today. Don't let the prime minister pretend to be you again." The third prince was not displeased at all. Instead, he teased Bai Yanwei.

"Tsk, you know my sister's personality. She just clings to her treasured books all day long. How could she come back to such a lively party? Besides, I'm just here to enjoy the flowers with everyone. How could I be arrested?"

Bai Yanwei argued with some dissatisfaction, which also allowed everyone to see that she had an unusual relationship with these princes.

"Sister Chu'er, I wanted to say hello to you just now, but I didn't see you. We had some misunderstandings at the mansion that day. I apologize to you here." Meng Hewan felt a sense of crisis when she saw the Third Prince joking about his unusual relationship with the Prime Minister's daughter.

However, she calmly turned her gaze to Gu Fanchu.

When the Third Prince heard her words, a hint of interest flashed in his eyes, and he also looked in the direction of the woman. He saw Gu Fanchu wearing gorgeous clothes, and her whole body became delicate and beautiful like a fairy, which made his eyes light up.

"I don't know what misunderstandings there are between Wan'er and Miss Gu. Why don't we talk it out today so they can get along better in the future."

The Third Prince naturally knew that the relationship between the General's Mansion and the Marquis' Mansion was very tense. Although he liked Meng Hewan, if the Marquis' Mansion lost the support of the General's Mansion, then the Marquis' Mansion would lose its value.

The man's mind was full of calculations at this moment, and there was no trace of the affectionate look on his face.

"Miss Meng, I've only met you twice. What misunderstanding could there be? I just got back. I'm usually carefree and don't have much on my mind. Miss Meng, you've always looked so pitiful and pitiful every time we've met. I'm afraid people will misunderstand and bully you, so naturally I have to stay away from you."
