"Your Majesty, I only want to stay by your side to repay you. I don't want to be a concubine." Gu Rong knelt down and said to Madam Fu.
Madam Fu knew she would say this, so she helped her up and said, "If you don't want to be a concubine, then don't be one. But it's not good for you to stay by my side forever. When you get older, it might be hard to find a good man in the future."
Gu Rong said quickly: "I won't marry, I will stay with the queen."
Madam Fu smiled slowly and said, "I have enough people to take care of me. I can't delay you no matter what."
Gu Rong lowered her head and bit her lower lip, thinking that Madam Fu was going to drive her out of the palace and marry her off.
She said firmly again: "My Lady, I have never thought about getting married in my life. As long as I can stay by your side, that's enough."
Mrs. Fu sighed and said, "Since you don't want to get married, I can't force you to do it."
After hearing this, Gu Rong smiled.
Mrs. Fu then added, "I heard that Mr. Lu who is with Yun Zhou is good."
The smile on Gu Rong's face disappeared immediately, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Mr. Lu is indeed good, talented and kind, but......"
Mrs. Fu asked, "But what?"
Gu Rong lowered his head and replied, "I have no feelings for Mr. Lu."
Mrs. Fu's eyes lit up.
It was exactly as Chu Chenyin said.
When it comes to care, she naturally values power more than love.
She then said with a slow smile, "Rong'er, I noticed that you and Mr. Lu have been getting along well recently, and I thought you were attracted to him, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding."
He avoided her gaze and did not reply.
Madam Fu continued, "What a pity! Mr. Lu is not only outstanding in appearance, but also has an extraordinary family background. I heard from Chen Yin that he is actually the son of a prince of Jiang State. This prince has only this one son, and I'm afraid he will have to go back to inherit the family business in the future."
Gu Rong's face showed surprise. She calmed down for a long time, raised her head and asked, "Son of the prince?"
Madam Fu nodded. "We in Wushuang cannot compare to Jiang. Even a prince is richer than our royal family. So it's a pity. If you can marry Mr. Lu and become the princess of a prince in the future, you may be more noble than me in the future."
Just a few simple words moved Gu Rong's heart.
Mr. Lu is handsome, young and promising, and the son of a prince. This makes him much better than the old fellow, Lord Fu.
