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 32 Seeing the Profile
Gu Jinxi was being held by the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, and she was trying hard not to throw him out.
However, seeing that time was passing by, he really couldn't wait any longer, so he controlled the strength and "gently" threw the person out.
The prefect of Jingzhao was thrown directly to the ground.
Gu Jinxi took the opportunity to run away.
It was also at this time that he saw Xiaoman who had been waiting at the door.
Xiaoman finally found Gu Jinxi, hurried forward to hug him, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"My little prince, I finally found you. You scared me to death."
Xiaoman almost cried, and Gu Jinxi explained: "They want to harm mother, I want to save her."
After hearing this, Xiaoman understood why Gu Jinxi wanted to go out. She quickly told him about Gu Jingchun's plan and gave him repeated assurances.
"Don't you understand your mother yet?"
"With her cleverness, who can bully her?"
Gu Jinxi thought about it and felt that Xiaoman was right, so he was completely relieved.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves was heard, and then Shen Hechuan tightened the reins and got off the horse.
Xiaoman couldn't help but look at Chen Hechuan, and was immediately shocked by his face.
"Oh my God! Such a handsome man, if the lady sees him, she will definitely like him."
Xiaoman murmured.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the handsome man slowly walking towards them. Xiaoman quickly lowered her eyes and stood respectfully behind Gu Jinxi.
When Gu Jinxi saw Chen Hechuan coming over, she looked up in surprise.
"Uncle, I meet you again."
When Shen Hechuan saw Gu Jinxi, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but squat down to ask him.
"Where have you been? I'm so worried."
Gu Jinxi apologized immediately.
"I'm sorry for making my uncle worry. I'm going to find my mother."
"Have you found your mother?"
Gu Jinxi shook his head.
"No, but my mother is safe."
As Gu Jinxi spoke, he took out the jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Chen Hechuan.
"Thank you for helping me, uncle. Give this back to me."
Chen Hechuan pushed the jade pendant back from Gu Jinxi's hand.
"Since I gave it to you, it's yours."
"Keep this jade pendant. If you encounter any problems you can't solve in the future, come to me with it."
"Um."
Gu Jinxi nodded and put the jade pendant away.
He also thought that if his mother encountered danger again when entering the palace in the future, he would rely on this jade pendant to enter the palace and save his mother.
Gu Jinxi said a few more words to Chen Hechuan before saying goodbye to him.
Xiaoman stood behind Gu Jinxi and listened to their conversation.
After the two turned around, she heard the Jingzhao prefect respectfully call out to Shen Hechuan, "Your Highness the Crown Prince."
She was shocked and quickly took Gu Jinxi into the carriage.
Little did they know that all traces of their carriages had fallen into Shen Hechuan's eyes.
And on the other side at this time.
Shortly after leaving the city, Gu Jingchun and Chu Qianlan saw the carriage of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion lying on the side of the road.
But there was no one inside at this time.
Chu Qianlan also panicked when she saw this.
"I...I really ordered someone to send him to the manor. Even if I wanted to kill him, I wouldn't kill him here!"
Gu Jingchun looked at her coldly.
"You better pray he's okay."
At this time, fireworks exploded again in the sky.
Gu Jingchun looked up and saw that they were red fireworks, and he breathed a sigh of relief instantly.
Lan Xin also jumped for joy and whispered.
"Miss, it's red, red. The young master is fine now."
Gu Jingchun nodded and immediately turned around and got on the carriage.
Although Chu Qianlan didn't know what had happened, looking at Gu Jingchun's expression, she guessed that it must be related to the child.
She had wanted to ask for clarification in the carriage.
However, she didn't expect that Gu Jingchun didn't let her get on the carriage at all.
Helpless, Chu Qianlan could only go to Gu Yunjin's carriage cursing.
The carriage galloped all the way and entered the city again.
Walking on the busy street, Gu Jingchun couldn't help but lift the car curtain to look outside.
"Have we arranged our people?"
Lan Xin nodded immediately after hearing this.
"Everything has been settled, and the shops are open. Together with our previous branch in Tiandu, this month's revenue can basically reach 50,000 taels."
"However, the situation in Tiandu is complicated. Our people are not familiar with it yet, and they dare not show up now. I told them to keep a low profile at the time, and I believe that's why something went wrong. I hope Miss will forgive me."
Gu Jingchun heard this and said, "Everything is unclear now. It's not the time to apologize yet. Let's go back and talk about it later."
She said this while looking at the candy shop with a long line on the roadside.
Seeing this, Lan Xin also said, "Our newly opened candy shop is very popular in Tiandu, especially the candies of various shapes designed by you. They are in short supply every day."
This shop was originally opened because Gu Jinxi liked to eat candy, but I didn’t expect it to be so popular.
Speaking of this candy, Gu Jingchun was reminded of Shen Muqian.
The same is true for Shen Muqian, he likes to eat candy so much.
She had only discovered by accident that Shen Muqian liked to eat candy.
Therefore, she specially made a purse for him and made small sugar pills out of the sugar so that he could just put one in his mouth whenever he wanted to eat it.
After Shen Muqian got it, he was very moved, so he "tortured" her for a whole night, making her almost unable to get out of bed the next day.
But because Gu Jinxi was young, Gu Jingchun didn't let him eat too much in order to protect his teeth.
Thinking that he might have been frightened today, Gu Jingchun asked someone to stop the carriage and got off personally to buy some candy for Gu Jinxi to calm him down.
Although Gu Jingchun was wearing a veil on her head, she still attracted a lot of people's attention after getting off the carriage because of her good figure and elegant temperament.
Gu Jingchun ignored the stares and quietly stood at the back of the crowd.
The carriage stopped in a small alley not far away.
Soon, Gu Jingchun returned with a bag full of various candies, but as soon as he turned around, he saw two groups of horses galloping past.
Because the horse was running so fast, it created a gust of wind that blew up Gu Jingchun's veil, revealing her beautiful face.
Gu Jingchun closed her eyes reflexively, and when she opened them, she saw the backs of two men.
"Miss, are you okay?"
Lan Xin said this and looked at the two men angrily.
"You're riding so fast, and you don't even know how to watch your step. This city's security is just so-so!"
As he said that, he helped Gu Jingchun into the carriage.
But at this moment, the two people on horseback suddenly stopped.
One of the men quickly got off his horse and rushed into the crowd, anxiously looking for something.
Seeing this, Tianji followed.
