She looked at Rong Zhen happily and said, "Were these all done by people in your palace?"
"They were all awarded by the King of Bianxi."
"No wonder, it looks delicious!" Gu Yunru took a piece of fried chicken feet and stuffed it into her mouth. Qingxing watched from the side and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. The young lady really didn't care about her own image.
"Where did you go today?" Rong Zhen chatted with her in a casual tone. Gu Yunru paused and said, "Why do you care where I went?"
“………” Rong Zhen no longer wanted to make himself look boring. Gu Yunru started to eat and drink heartily as if he had no worries at all. Rong Zhen actually showed a little envy in his eyes.
"By the way, when can we go back?" Although Gu Yunru has a strong ability to adapt, she still feels that the culture and customs of Da Qi are more suitable for her.
"Are you in such a hurry to go back?" Rong Zhen asked slowly and gently.
"Ahem, not really... I always feel like I'm being held hostage. There are so many guards outside the palace staring at me every day, making it extremely inconvenient for me to go in and out. I kind of want to go to Hua Man Lou."
Rong Zhen knew that Gu Yunru was playful and he also knew that he had wronged her by asking her to come here to accompany him.
"If you don't like staying here, I will arrange for General Huang to send you away." Rong Zhen slowly put down his chopsticks, his eyes seemed to have a hook. Gu Yunru looked at his deep eyes, swallowed silently and said, "No need. Since you are here, you should make the best of it. I don't know whether you can coexist peacefully."
If war breaks out, the people of Dawn will suffer.
Ah Zhao had a difficult mission here and she didn't want to hold him back, so after having a good meal and a few drinks, she took Qing Xing back to the palace and found a row of maids waiting to serve her.
"Miss Gu, this is the costume from the palace." One of the women with a kinder look came forward, holding a set of clothes in her hand. This was the unique costume of their Bianxi Palace. The color was some bright brown, and it was not wrapped very tightly, sometimes revealing two snow-white arms like lotus roots.
"Thank you, auntie. I can do this myself." Gu Yunru was not used to so many people serving her. After everyone left, she looked at Qingxing behind her with great energy and said, "This is the costume of their Bianxi Palace. This is the first time I have seen it."
"Yes, this is the first time I've seen this, too. But won't you catch a cold if your arms are exposed?"
"Oh, Qingxing, you are just too conservative. There is nothing wrong with showing your arms. Haven't you seen those dancers showing their bellies and thighs? It's okay to show your breasts in our place!"
Gu Yunru blurted out these words, and Qingxing was stunned.
"By the way, Qingxing, do you want to sneak out of the palace and take a look?"
"Miss, the prince has ordered that you are not allowed to leave." Qingxing listened to Rong Zhen's words. Gu Yunru put his hands on her shoulders and said solemnly: "You are mine, how can you listen to that big devil."
"Miss……"
Qingxing wanted to cry but had no tears, as she could not stand the lady's nagging every time.
The next morning, Gu Yunru wanted to sneak out of the palace while no one was paying attention, wearing the clothes of the West Palace. Not long after she walked to the back garden, she bumped into a man.
"It's you."
She had seen this man before. It was he who called the old man "father" in the gardener's room. This man had deep eyebrows and eyes, and very three-dimensional facial features. He also looked to be about 1.9 meters tall. It was rare to see such a strong build.
"Where are you going, young lady?" The man's voice was very gentle. Such a charming and magnetic voice was rarely heard. Gu Yunru looked at him and forced a smile and said, "Today, the weather is good, so I want to go outside and take a look. What's your name, sir?"
"Just call me Huck."
"Oh." Gu Yunru looked at the man in front of her who revealed a noble temperament. He was either a duke or a royal relative, otherwise how could he enter and leave the palace.
"Prince, the king invites you." A man who looked like a eunuch came over and invited Huck to leave. Only then did Gu Yunru realize that he was a prince. No wonder he was so noble.
Then yesterday he called that man father, does that mean he is the King of Bianxi? After a brainstorm, Gu Yunru sadly discovered that she had fought with the King of Bianxi for an entire afternoon. Thinking of this, she felt fear and panic.
"Tell my father I'll be there right away." Prince Hake was a polite man who treated his servants equally. Looking at his gentle eyes and warm smile, Gu Yunru's heart began to beat. Such a gentle man turned out to be a prince! "I didn't know it was the King of Bianxi and the prince that day. I'm sorry for the offense. Please forgive me, prince." Gu Yunru bowed quickly. She didn't want to be accused of being rude.
"Girl, you have a cheerful personality, not much different from the women from the west."
Is this a compliment to her? Gu Yunru rolled her eyes and said quickly, "The King of Bianxi wants the prince to go. He must have something important to discuss. Please go first."
A trace of paleness flashed across Gu Yunru's beautiful face, and she just hoped that Prince Hake would leave sooner.

"Okay, we'll see each other again."
Qing Xing stood behind Gu Yunru, trembling and not daring to speak. She secretly looked up and saw that Prince Hake had already walked away. She breathed a sigh of relief and came forward and said, "Miss, are we going to leave the palace yet?"
"Of course!"
She felt bored staying in this place, and no one interacted with her. However, Prince Hake and the King of the West were very kind and friendly, and did not seem to be as ferocious as she had imagined.
Prince Hak came before the King of Bianxi, bowed, put his hand on his right chest, and bowed 90 degrees. Then he stood up, looked at him with a smile in his clear black eyes, and said, "Father, I wonder why you asked me to come here."
"You're here. How's the matter you were asked to investigate going?"
King Bianxi looked up at him. The brightness of the eyes of both father and son were extremely similar, as if they were carved from the same mold.
"In reply to father, Rong Zhen brought a troop of several hundred men with him this time and stationed them near the Great Wall. There was nothing unusual about the rest. The spies outside the Great Wall arrested ten people, but they all bit their tongues and committed suicide."
"So, is there any movement from King Buyi's side?"
"King Bu Yi is a careful and cautious person who doesn't like to show off. He probably wants to wait for all tribes to unite before discussing whether to conquer the Central Plains. However, the cattle and sheep on our grasslands are almost starving to death. I'm afraid that the people's hearts cannot be united, and it will be difficult to fight."
Prince Hak investigated everything clearly and reported everything to King Bianxi in detail. King Bianxi frowned, waved his hand with a headache, and said, "Go to the posthouse first to see if there are any spies from the Central Plains going to that place again."
"yes."
