Chapter 473 The prince’s behavior in front of the little girl!
Gu Jingyao never rejected learning from the nanny. On the contrary, she enjoyed it and was willing to become a better person for the one she loved.
"Silly boy, how can it not be hard? Look how much thinner you've become recently!"
The prince felt so distressed when he saw the little girl’s thinner face.
"My sister-in-law said that I lost my baby fat, not that I'm thin." Gu Jingyao retorted.
"Okay, sister-in-law is right. Yao'er didn't lose weight. She just lost her baby fat and became more beautiful."
The prince smiled dotingly. In front of his Crown Princess, he could argue for other things, but what his sister-in-law Qin Zhizhi said could not be changed.
"But Yao'er, you don't have to work so hard. Being happy is the most important thing!"
The prince pulled the little girl to sit on his lap, his eyes full of affection.
He didn't want his Yao'er to learn those palace rules. His Yao'er didn't need to compete with others for favor. He would give her the best.
"Brother Yan, I promise you that if you're tired, you won't study anymore, okay? I'm really happy now."
Except for the hard years when she was a child, Qin Zhizhi has been happy every day since she married into the Gu family.
"Okay, as long as Yao'er is happy!"
"Brother Yan, the purse you wanted is embroidered. I'll give it to you!"
Gu Jingyao remembered the purse she had just embroidered yesterday but had not had time to give away, so she hurried to get it for the prince.
"Here you go. Now you have it too. Don't be jealous of Nian Nian anymore."
Gu Jingyao helped the prince hang the purse around his waist. When he saw the little gadgets that Gu Jingyao embroidered for Nian Nian, he was extremely jealous.
Gu Jingyao couldn't bear to see his aggrieved expression, so she took some time out of her busy schedule to embroider a purse for the prince.
"Thank you, Yao'er. I know I am the most important person in your heart."
The prince put his arm around the little girl's waist and acted coquettishly. Gu Jingyao blushed and wondered who was so blind as to praise the prince for being steady.
"As long as Brother Yan likes it!"
Gu Jingyao said with a blushing face that in her heart her brother Yan was just like a child, who would act like a spoiled child, and would compete for favor with her little niece Nian Nian.
"I like it very much. I want to carry it with me every day, just like Yao'er is by my side."
Gu Jingyao's embroidery skills are good, and the purses she embroidered are very exquisite. The prince couldn't put them down. However, he wouldn't care even if the embroidery was ugly. It is easy to fall in love when you are young.
"Then I'll embroider it for you when I'm free." Gu Jingyao was very happy to see that the prince liked it.
"This one is enough. Embroidering these hurts my eyes. I can't bear Yao'er to suffer so much!"
The prince held Gu Jingyao's hand. He felt really distressed. His princess consort didn't need to be so formal and rigid. What moved him was the innocence of the first meeting.
"Brother Yan, Yao'er doesn't feel tired!"
"As long as Yao'er doesn't feel tired, I'm glad. I just hope Yao'er is happy. After a few days of work, I'll take you to the farm to play."
"Okay, I'll bring Nian Nian with me then!"
Gu Jingyao was very happy when she heard that she could go out and play, and the first person she thought of was her little niece Gu Nian.
"Yao'er, can't you just stay with me alone?"
The prince felt wronged again. He felt that his little girl only had his niece in her eyes and heart, and he had no status at all.
"Brother Yan, how old are you this year? Nian Nian is only six years old!" Gu Jingyao joked.
"I don't care, I want Yao'er to accompany me!" The prince started to act like a spoiled child.
"Call my second brother and Yunlang as well. With Yunlang here, we don't need to worry about Nian Nian. Yunlang will take good care of her."
"Okay, I'll listen to Yao'er."
The prince agreed very readily. With Gu Yunlang, who doted on his niece, around, no one else would have the chance to take care of Gu Nian.
Gu Jingyao obviously thought of this as well and laughed out loud.
"You are such a heartless girl, and you are still laughing. I just want to spend more time with you." The prince hugged the little girl in his arms.
"Didn't I call Yunlang? Don't feel aggrieved." Gu Jingyao coaxed the prince in a low voice.
"Yao'er, I really want to marry you soon!"
"The wedding date has been set, why are you in a hurry, Brother Yan?" Gu Jingyao said with a smile.
"Of course I'm anxious to marry you back to the East Palace so I can see Yao'er every day."
Ever since the marriage was granted, the prince felt that every day was torment, and he just wanted to be with the girl every day.
"Ever since the marriage was granted, the walls of the Gu family can no longer stop you."
Gu Jingyao felt helpless when she thought about how the prince always climbed over the wall to find her instead of going through the main gate.
"It would be great to climb over the wall so I can be alone with Yao'er for a while."
The prince felt quite justified in climbing over the wall, mainly because he had done it so many times that he was very familiar with it.
At first, Gu Ting was wary of him, but after a few times, he thought that everyone was young once, so he just ignored him.
He just climbed over the wall to see his niece and would not do anything out of line, so Gu Ting chose to turn a blind eye and asked the secret guards to go easy on the prince.
The secret guards of the Gu Mansion were originally the same group as the royal family's secret guards. In order to help their master climb the wall smoothly, the secret guards on the prince's side were extremely humble.
Sometimes they would bring them some good wine and food, and insist that their master was in the wrong and that their attitude must be correct.
"You've been busy all day, you should go back and rest early!" Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Jingyao urged the prince to go back.
"I just got here. Yao'er, are you willing to chase me away? I'll leave in a moment."
The prince had finally found time to spend with the little girl, so why would he go back so early?
"Okay, then stay a while."
Gu Jingyao was reluctant to let the prince go, but they had not yet gotten married, and it would not be good if someone saw them.
"Yao'er, don't be afraid. The security at the Gu Mansion is so strict. If my family hadn't let me go, do you think I could come and go freely?" The prince said with a smile.
"Brother Yan, do you mean that my parents, sister-in-law and brother all know about it?" Gu Jingyao asked in surprise.
"They should probably turn a blind eye, but my elder brother and sister-in-law probably don't care about these things at all." The prince analyzed.
Although the eldest brother has his own opinions and strong ability in the court, he actually listens to his eldest sister-in-law in everything in private.
As for sister-in-law Qin Zhizhi, she is not someone who cares about these worldly things.
The two chatted for a while, and the prince clung to Gu Jingyao as if he had no bones.
Now he finally understood why his father always pestered his mother to be with him even though he was busy every day.
It turns out that when you really like someone, you can't help but want to get close to her and want to be with her all the time. Even if you don't do anything, you will be happy just being together.
The prince stayed in Gu Jingyao's room until very late, and finally left reluctantly when he saw that the little girl was really sleepy.
Before leaving, he covered the little girl with a quilt, kissed her forehead, and waited until Gu Jingyao fell asleep before leaving with the secret guards.
"Your Highness, are you going back to the palace or to the Princess's residence?"
"Go to the Princess's residence, get up early tomorrow and return to the palace. Don't alarm the people in the residence."
"yes!"
The prince and the secret guard disappeared into the night and went to the princess's mansion.
That night, Gu Jingyao slept soundly, and her dreams were all about her brother Yan.
