Chapter 114 Leaving the Palace

Even though Gu Jingchun was knowledgeable and experienced, he was still shocked and gasped when he saw this.

But Shen Hechuan behind him snorted coldly.

I thought, I was careless!

These days, I was so busy enjoying the comfort of being served by Gu Jingchun that I forgot to prepare a gift for her. Now, the Empress Dowager got there first.

Thinking of this, Chen Hechuan was not willing to be left behind and immediately followed up, "Since we are praying for grandma, then as a grandson, I should naturally give her a gift to express my gratitude."

As he spoke, he also had people present him with all kinds of rare treasures.

This time, not only Gu Jingchun was stunned, but even Princess Rongyang was stunned.

What on earth did Gu Jingchun do to make his grandmother and brother so generous and give him so many gifts?

Moreover, there are many things in it that she wanted but didn't get.

Now they were all given to Gu Jingchun, which made her pout and feel very unhappy.

She thought that she must go to Gu Jingchun in the future to exchange these favorite things for her.

When the time comes, she will want to see what her grandmother and brother will say.

Gu Jinxi liked the Empress Dowager very much, so he took the initiative to step forward and handed a little man to the Empress Dowager.

"My Lady, this was made by Xier herself. I'm giving it to you. I hope you like it."

The Queen Mother looked at the little figure made by Gu Jinxi with a look of surprise. She quickly squatted down, took the little figure in her hand, and looked at it carefully.

The little figure is very cute, and you can vaguely see the shadow of a little boy. I thought that this little guy was made specially for the Queen Mother, so that the Queen Mother would mistake him for Gu Jinxi and accompany her.

The Queen Mother was very moved and immediately hugged Gu Jinxi in her arms, wishing she could keep him in the palace.

However, Gu Jinxi came out of the Queen Mother's arms, took a step back, took the figurine over, and demonstrated it to the Queen Mother, "This is what Xier made specially for you.

In the future, if you encounter danger, you can use it to protect yourself."

As he spoke, Gu Jinxi took the little man and gently twisted his neck. In an instant, a long needle shot out of the little man's mouth.

With a "pa-" sound, it pierced into the pillar of the pavilion opposite.

The Queen Mother was startled and fell backward out of shock, almost falling to the ground.

Fortunately, Gu Jingchun was prepared. When Gu Jinxi took out this thing, she stood behind the Queen Mother in advance, which prevented the Queen Mother from falling and getting injured.

But it still caused a burst of exclamations and panic.

Seeing everyone's surprised look.

Gu Jingchun suddenly felt a headache.

Why!

Blame her!

I didn't pay attention to prenatal education before.

After the child was born, she felt that the child was still young and did not avoid him when doing things, which is why he developed such a temper.

******

The sun is shining brightly.

The strong sunlight shining on the earth is like a steamer, baking people so hard that they can't stand it at all.

Luo Ziqian knelt under the scorching sun, his back straight and his fists clenched. Even though sweat was dripping from his head and soaking his clothes, his movements did not change at all.

At this moment, the gate of the East Palace was opened, and Gu Jingchun and Gu Jinxi walked out slowly.

He was overjoyed and quickly stood up, but because he had been kneeling for too long, his legs became numb and his body fell forward uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Gu Jingchun hurriedly stepped forward and supported Luo Ziqian.

But because Luo Ziqian was too tall and too heavy, she couldn't hold on for a moment and took a step back.

As a result, Luo Ziqian's body fell into her arms.

Feeling something soften in front of him, a sweet fragrance entered Luo Ziqian's nose, making his heart skip a beat and his limbs tremble.

His body stiffened and his whole body flushed instantly.

Thinking that he was covered in sweat, he was afraid that he would stifle Gu Jingchun.

He quickly stood up, endured the numbness in his legs, and took a step back.

"Thank you so much."

Fortunately, Tianji arrived in time and supported Luo Ziqian to prevent him from falling again, which made him secretly relieved. However, his heart beat faster and did not calm down for a long time.

And this whole scene fell into Shen Hechuan's eyes.

He clenched his fists, his eyes were covered with ice, but also seemed to be on fire, ready to burn Luo Ziqian to death at any time.

Just now, he watched Gu Jingchun and Gu Jinxi leave, and felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

He felt empty, just like the day when Gu Jingchun said she didn't like him, which was unbearable for him.

So, he couldn't help but step forward and wanted to escort Gu Jingchun out personally.

But I didn't expect to see this scene as soon as I went out.

He thought of Gu Jingchun saying that she didn't like him and didn't want to marry him.

However, she tried her best to get Emperor Rongcheng to grant her a marriage with Luo Ziqian.

Even after he discovered her identity, she wanted to fake her death and escape, but she did not forget to take Luo Ziqian with her.

Perhaps Princess Rongyang was right about one thing.

Gu Jingchun was not trying to fake his death and escape, this was clearly an attempt to elope.

Thinking of this, Chen Hechuan looked at Luo Ziqian's relatively handsome face, and his teeth chattered immediately, wishing he could cut Luo Ziqian into pieces right now.

Fortunately, Tianji had already noticed Chen Hechuan's expression and hurried forward to support Luo Ziqian, preventing him from having contact with Gu Jingchun again. This made Chen Hechuan's expression look a little better.

But only a little.

Whenever he thought that the person Gu Jingchun liked might be Luo Ziqian, he gritted his teeth in hatred.

Yong'an Marquis Mansion.

The carriage slowly stopped at the gate of Yong'an Marquis Mansion.

Gu Jingchun and Gu Jinxi got off the carriage and said goodbye to Luo Ziqian.

"Thanks to Mr. Luo's help today, I was able to leave the East Palace. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. In the future, I will definitely..."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ziqian interrupted Gu Jingchun first.

"Miss Gu, you are too polite. You and I will be husband and wife in the future. It is only natural for husband and wife to help each other. You don't need to be so polite to me."

Hearing this, Gu Jingchun was stunned for a moment.

Luo Ziqian immediately noticed her abnormality. Thinking that Gu Jingchun had been staying in the East Palace, he must not have known about the imperial edict, so he explained:

"The emperor has issued another decree, asking us to get married as soon as possible."

As he spoke, his face flushed, and he touched the back of his head embarrassedly and continued:

"Everything related to the wedding has been prepared almost completely. We will be getting married in three days."

After he finished speaking, he thought of Gu Jingchun's situation and continued:

"But don't worry. My mother is worried that you won't have enough time to prepare, so she's prepared a wedding dress for you and will send it to you tomorrow."

"You don't have to worry about anything. Just wait for me to pick you up in three days."

As Luo Ziqian spoke, his face turned red, and Gu Jingchun nodded slowly.

He spoke to Luo Ziqian for a few more words before letting him leave.

Watching Luo Ziqian's carriage leave, Gu Jingchun's heart felt inexplicably heavy.
