The Queen Mother was very pleased with it and asked her to come closer for a closer look.

Gu Yunru stood in front of her with a stiff face, not daring to move. After a while, the empress dowager took her hand, with a bright light in her eyes, as if she saw herself back then.

"Yunru, I am so happy to see you. When will you marry King Zhao?"

"In response to the Queen Mother, it will be on the second day of the New Year." Gu Yunru lowered her eyes shyly, with a blush on her face.

"Happy second day of the New Year. It's an auspicious day. I'm looking forward to your marriage to King Zhao. I'm also planning to have a grandson." The Queen Mother looked at Gu Yunru with a kind and friendly smile on her face. Gu Yunru could only respond awkwardly with a few perfunctory words.

"Queen Dowager, will the princess come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet tonight?" Gu Yunru pursed her lips and asked softly.

"Yes, I have already sent someone to pass on the message." The Queen Mother looked at Gu Yunru affectionately, and she already regarded her as her own daughter in her heart.

"That's good. I haven't seen her for a while."

Gu Yunru began to exchange pleasantries with the empress dowager, while Rong Zhen on the other side rushed to the Yangxin Palace. The emperor summoned the imperial physician Su and talked to Rong Zhen about the heart and lung transplant.

Doctor Su described the consequences as being very serious, but Rong Zhen showed no excited reaction throughout the whole process, as if he had already put life and death aside.

"Royal brother, although the idea of ​​replacing the heart and lungs does sound mysterious and unreliable, for the sake of your life, you have to accept the advice of Imperial Doctor Su."

The Emperor was originally skeptical about what Imperial Physician Su said, but after several days of careful consideration, he decided it was necessary to tell Rong Zhen about the matter and discuss it with him.

"If this heart and lungs were replaced by someone else, wouldn't the patient die?" Rong Zhen's dark pupils contained a cold luster. He slowly moved his gaze to the face of Doctor Su. Doctor Su paused, walked forward and whispered: "In reply to your Highness, I also read ancient books and found that our ancestors used this method to cure patients. Therefore, I suggested this to Your Majesty."

"Oh? What kind of ancient book can you show me?" Rong Zhen didn't believe these heretical theories at all. The emperor looked at his tense appearance and quickly stood in front of the two of them and said, "Alright, alright, we'll discuss this later. But you, too, I'm worried about your health. You have to marry the eldest lady of the Gu family as soon as possible!"

The emperor was worried that if Rong Zhen died one day, he would not leave behind any sons or daughters...

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

Rong Zhen left the Yangxin Palace expressionlessly, his lonely and desolate figure standing on the stone steps.

"Your Highness." Qingfeng came up behind him. Rong Zhen's cold eyes seemed as silent and pressing as the abyss. He looked at Qingfeng and raised his hand, motioning him to come closer.

After whispering a few words in his ear, Qingfeng's expression tensed, he took a few steps back and asked, "Could it be that the prince is suspicious of Doctor Su?"

"That's right, check his background first."

"yes."

Watching Qingfeng's figure leave, night fell quietly at this time, and everyone arrived at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet one by one. Gu Yunru stepped on the ground paved with white jade warm stones and felt light under her feet.

Sitting next to Rong Zhen, watching the expressions of the people around him.

Looking at the palace that seemed like a dream and unreal, a faint fragrance wafted in from all around, followed by the sound of zither and harp.

The large sandalwood pillars are carved with images of a phoenix spreading its wings, which look lifelike, as if it is about to fly down towards people.

Gu Yunru sat stiffly on the futon, feeling sore all over. Looking at Rong Zhen's expressionless face, she just wanted to find a place to stretch her muscles.

"Hey, this music is almost hypnotizing me, can I go out?"

Gu Yunru leaned towards him and begged in a low voice.

"No." Rong Zhen grabbed her hand directly, but Gu Yunru reacted strongly. Everyone's eyes fell on the two of them, and they just happened to witness the scene of King Zhao grabbing her hand.

Xie Yihui noticed this scene, and he smiled and said jokingly: "Your Highness Prince Zhao, there is no need to be so anxious, right? Miss Gu will be yours sooner or later."

As soon as these words came out, everyone burst into laughter. Gu Yunru was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in. Who was this person who said this?

He was dressed in luxurious attire, and appeared to be a member of the royal family.

The people in the palace were all of noble status. Gu Yunru couldn't tell their identities. Looking at Rong Zhen's black pupils which contained a ray of light, her heart couldn't help but tremble, and she sat beside him obediently.

Xie Yihui raised the wine in his glass and drank it all. At this time, everyone's attention was attracted to the dancing woman in the middle. The woman's dance was graceful and light, like a flying swallow in the palm of your hand, stepping on a drum.

This attracted cheers from the crowd, and the woman slowly took off her veil, revealing herself to be truly stunningly beautiful.

Xie Yihui stroked the goatee on his chin, stood up, bowed, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this woman is my youngest daughter Bingyan."

The woman named Xie Bingyan was indeed very graceful and beautiful. Her two gem-like eyes flashed with cleverness, and her agile and light figure made her stand out.

There were two long black hair hanging down on her cheeks. The breeze brushed across her fair face, making her look even more charming and attractive. She was wearing a white dress like a white lotus emerging from the mud.

Gu Yunru had never seen such a charming woman before, and her jaw dropped.

Rong Zhen looked at the cup in front of him nonchalantly the whole time.

"My daughter Xie Bingyan greets the Emperor and the Empress Dowager."

Xie Bingyan bowed to everyone, and her voice sounded like the sound of a yellow oriole singing in a valley.

If Gu Yunru were a man, he would definitely ask for marriage!

"Bingyan, I still remember that you entered the palace when you were ten years old."

The Queen Mother had some impression of Xie Bingyan. She had been outstanding since she was a child, and when she grew up she was indeed so beautiful that she seemed otherworldly.

I just don't know what the purpose of the Grand Chancellor was in arranging the young girl to perform in the palace this time.

"Bingyan meets the Queen Mother. It's rare that the Queen Mother has a good memory and still remembers Bingyan. It's Bingyan's blessing."

Xie Bingyan spoke like a pearl, and every word touched people's heartstrings, soft, crisp and graceful like the sound of nature.

Rong Zhen looked at Gu Yunru, who was already infatuated, and couldn't help but lower his voice and cough lightly to remind her not to lose her manners in public.

Gu Yunru came back to her senses, but couldn't bear to take her eyes off Xie Bingyan. She was so beautiful! Although she was young, her every move, frown and smile were very proper.

She looked at Rong Zhen curiously and said, "Such a peerless beauty is standing in front of you, don't you want to take a few more glances?" Gu Yunru said it out of admiration, but in front of a man, she didn't know for what purpose.

"It's just a shell, what's so good about it?" Rong Zhen said casually, raised the wine in the glass and drank it all. Looking at Gu Yunru, who had just been clamoring to go out and take a look, now that he was free, he saw her with an unhappy face saying: "You can let me go out if you want, and you can let me stay if you want. I don't want to, I want to see Xie Bingyan."
