On the day the Marquisate welcomed back its true young lady, the entire capital city waited to watch a show. They intended to make her marry in place of someone else? She, carrying the Crown Prince...
Chapter 197: So what if it’s an evil star?
After Chen Hechuan finished speaking, Gu Yunjin took a step back in disbelief.
“You…you guys…”
She looked at Shen Hechuan.
"Brother Prince, are you crazy?"
"She's a widow with a child, and you, the crown prince, actually..."
"So what?"
Shen Hechuan interrupted Gu Yunjin directly.
"I just like her. No matter what she looks like, I like her. Even if she is now in her twilight years, I will marry her to be my Crown Princess. It doesn't matter her age or status, it's just because, this is her."
After Chen Hechuan finished speaking, Gu Jingchun couldn't help but look up at him again.
She had to admit that Shen Hechuan's eloquence was getting better and better.
Every word he said almost touched her heart, making her heart soften more and more. She was on the verge of surrendering and becoming addicted.
Shen Hechuan did not avoid anyone when he said this, and his voice was not low, ensuring that everyone present could hear it clearly.
Suddenly, the eyes of those around looking at Gu Jingchun were filled with envy and jealousy.
But Gu Yunjin was filled with anger.
She looked at Gu Jingchun and clenched her hands into fists.
Why, why!
Gu Jingchun just grew up in the countryside and is a widow with a child. Why can she be favored by Shen Hechuan?
That’s His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!
If Gu Jingchun really married Chen Hechuan, wouldn't that be stepping on her head again?
How can this be!
Therefore, Gu Yunjin almost immediately spoke out to stop him, "No!"
"Brother Crown Prince, you can't marry her!"
Shen Hechuan rolled his eyes at her and ignored her.
Gu Yunjin took a step forward and wanted to pull Chen Hechuan, but Chen Hechuan took a step back, avoiding her touch and frowning in disgust.
"Brother Crown Prince, you can't marry her. She's an evil star!"
Speaking of which, Gu Jingchun and Shen Hechuan looked at Gu Yunjin in confusion at the same time.
Gu Yunjin snorted coldly, as if he had grasped Gu Jingchun's vital point, and said loudly: "When she was born, a Taoist priest said that she was an evil star that could bring misfortune to the family and even the destruction of the family.
So, even when my mother discovered that she had been switched, she didn't stop it and let them take her away."
This statement contains a huge amount of information.
Even Gu Jingchun didn't know that there was such a secret behind her being replaced.
This made her silent for a moment before she sneered.
"So what?"
"So what?"
Gu Jingchun and Shen Hechuan spoke at the same time.
The two looked at each other.
Chen Hechuan spoke first.
"So what if it's an evil star?"
"It's just a casual remark from a poor Taoist priest, but it can actually decide a person's future. It's absolutely ridiculous.
If she is really an evil star, I still want to see what she can do to me.
After saying that, Gu Yunjin repeated it in disbelief.
"What do you mean by that?"
"You don't care?"
"Brother Prince, are you crazy?
You are the Crown Prince. If you are not careful, it will affect your life, your court, and ultimately the entire Dacheng!"
"Oh……"
"What a joke! Ridiculous!"
"When did my life and the success of our empire ever come to be decided by a woman?"
After Chen Hechuan finished speaking, Gu Jingchun continued:
"Gu Yunjin, you're truly ridiculous. You actually used such a ridiculous excuse as leverage?"
"So what if it's an evil star?"
"What about Jixing?"
"When has my life, Gu Jingchun, ever been decided by others?"
"That's really ridiculous."
As she spoke, she took a step forward and said, "It seems that you have been beaten by the Third Prince for so long that you have lost even the most basic judgment ability."
Gu Yunjin took a step back after hearing this.
Gu Jingchun continued, "You don't think that everyone doesn't know!"
"I believe everyone in the palace knows by now that the Third Prince is manic and violent, and he gets pleasure from whipping his princess almost every night."
"After all, you guys make quite a bit of noise every night!"
After saying this, Gu Yunjin's face turned pale and he looked around in disbelief, as if he saw all kinds of contempt and mockery in the eyes of others.
"You...what nonsense are you talking about? I don't know what you are talking about."
Gu Jingchun continued to chuckle, lowering his voice to ensure that only Gu Yunjin could hear him, and then he said:
"It seems that the beatings you received recently were not enough to teach you a lesson. I need to teach the Third Prince a lesson and beat you even harder."
As she spoke, she cracked a smile, which made Gu Yunjin step back in disbelief.
"You...what do you mean by that?"
“Could it be…”
"You did all this?"
Gu Jingchun nodded.
"Well, how about it, do you like it?"
As she spoke, there was a captivating smile on her lips, like a demon seeking death, which made Gu Yunjin's back shiver.
"Actually, I didn't do anything. I just talked to the Third Prince occasionally."
At this moment, Gu Yunjin took a step back and fell directly to the ground.
But Chen Hechuan didn't even look at her, and said directly: "Come here, the Third Prince's wife contradicted me, give her thirty slaps as a warning to others."
After Chen Hechuan finished speaking, he took Gu Jingchun and strode away.
Behind him, there was a crisp and loud slapping sound.
When they arrived at the pavilion in the imperial garden, Chen Hechuan couldn't help but pull Gu Jingchun in to sit down.
Because of the cold weather.
The pavilion was covered with thick curtains all around, and there was a stove inside. Even the stone benches were covered with thick cushions, making it warm and comfortable to sit in.
Shen Hechuan asked Gu Jingchun to sit down before looking into her eyes.
"Jingchun, you... do you know that in this world, there are many scammers. Many people deliberately pretend to be Taoist priests to cheat people out of their money."
“So, you don’t have to take those words to heart.
Don't worry, I don't believe these words, and I won't take them to heart.
Even if it's the servants around here, I will control them and definitely won't let them spread rumors."
After hearing this, Gu Jingchun finally understood what Shen Hechuan meant.
It turned out that this guy was worried that he would be affected by these words, so he pulled her over to comfort himself.
Afraid that she would have wild thoughts.
Gu Jingchun felt a little softer in his heart when he saw how attentive Chen Hechuan was.
"When have I ever cared about these words? My life has always been my own decision. If I were affected by someone else's words, I would have died in childhood."
After Gu Jingchun finished speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at Chen Hechuan.
"But Your Highness, if I really am an evil star, I'm afraid it will affect you. Aren't you worried or afraid?"
Shen Hechuan shook his head.
He held Gu Jingchun in his arms.
