Rong Jingshuo did not come to the flower viewing banquet. Only the queen came with her niece.

This is Gu Qinyuan’s brother’s child, named Gu Wan. Although the name sounds gentle, she has a very fierce personality.

She is not very proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she carries a whip around her waist. When she encounters something that makes her unhappy, she will directly confront or beat people up, so she is still unmarried at the age of sixteen.

Of course, there were some noble families who thought that she had Gu Qinyuan as her backer and wanted to ask her to marry Gu Wan, but she rejected them one by one. She looked down on those weaklings.

Gu Qinyuan was at his wit's end. He hadn't been in a hurry before, but now that he saw that even Lin Xi was married, he began to worry. So he specially organized a flower-viewing banquet, hoping that Gu Wan would see if there was anyone she liked.

At the banquet, unmarried men and women were seated in separate areas, while married people sat elsewhere. Lin Xi led Su Jinge to a seat in the front.

After everyone was basically present, the queen slowly came over with Gu Wan.

Su Chaoge could only sit with the unmarried woman.

When almost everyone had arrived, the queen came over with Gu Wan.

"The Queen has arrived."

As these words rang out, everyone stood up and saluted the queen.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen."

"No need to be so polite. Today we are here to enjoy the flowers. You don't have to be so reserved." The queen said with a smile.

Then he looked at Gu Wan and said with a smile, "Wan'er, you must take a good look and see if there is anything you like." Gu Wan frowned slightly and muttered softly, "Aunt, you are here again."

When Lin Xi saw this scene, he couldn't help but think of the time when his mother urged him to get married, and he laughed secretly in his heart.

Gu Qinyuan smiled and looked at the people below. "The flowers in this yard are in full bloom. Don't just sit there. If you want to go for a walk, go for a walk."

After the queen spoke, some girls left in groups of three or four to secretly go see the men they liked.

Some people also began to recite poems and compose couplets to show their talents.

Gu Wan sat beside the queen, but her eyes were involuntarily attracted by the scene of Lin Xi and Su Jinge whispering not far away.

As she stared at the two of them, she lowered her voice to Gu Qinyuan beside her and said, "Aunt, that woman over there chatting happily with General Lin must be his newly married concubine, right? She's really as beautiful and stunning as the rumors say, captivating the whole country!"

Not only that, Gu Wan thought to herself, when had she ever seen Lin Xi so happy and smiling? Usually, Lin Xi was always serious, like a piece of wood, and dull.

Unexpectedly, after getting married, Lin Xi was so kind to his wife. It seemed that he had really met the person he loved, just as his aunt said.

Gu Wan couldn't help feeling depressed. When would she be able to meet her true love? She really couldn't be happy with the men in this capital city.

Hearing his niece's words, Gu Qinyuan nodded slightly in agreement, then smiled and said, "That's right, Lin Xi is married now, Wan'er, you should also work harder."

Gu Wan snorted lightly, curled her lips, and responded nonchalantly: "I don't care! Are you afraid that I can't find a good husband?" There was a hint of stubbornness in her words.

Seeing this, Gu Qinyuan could only shake her head helplessly. She didn't know why none of the men in the capital could win Gu Wan's heart.

Gu Wan really didn't want to sit there any longer, so she stood up and asked for leave from Gu Qinyuan, "Aunt, I want to go over and talk to that lady." Before she finished her words, she turned around and walked towards Su Jinge.
