Chapter 140: Gentle Concubine



Gu Yunru was listening at the door with gnashing teeth. This Rong Zhen was completely submissive in front of Xie Bingyan.

Looking at the bowl of medicine in my hand, I might as well throw it away.

Just as he was about to go down, he was not careful and fell. With a cry, the medicine spilled all over the floor and he lay on the ground in a mess.

Hearing the noise at the door, Xie Bingyan quickly opened the door, and light came out. It turned out to be her.

"Oh, Princess, why are you here?" Xie Bingyan pretended to be surprised and walked forward to help her up. Seeing how dirty she looked, she tried her best to hold back her smile.

"I'm fine." Gu Yunru was not so fragile that she pushed her hand away and brushed the dust off the hem of her skirt.

Seeing a faint smile in Rong Zhen's eyes, she mistakenly thought he was mocking her, glared at him and said, "I just went to the wrong place. I'll go back now."

Gu Yunru wiped the sweat from her nose and turned away.

Xie Bingyan looked at her back and shook her head helplessly. She walked to Rong Zhen's side and said, "Your Highness, my sister seems very angry. Did Bingyan do something to upset her?"

"Why do you care so much? Whether she is happy or not, it will not affect us." After saying that, he moved his affectionate eyes to her face.

I thought the prince would stay at her place today, but I didn't expect him to change the subject.

"I still have a lot of military affairs to deal with. You should go back and rest first."

"But..." Xie Bingyan hadn't finished her words yet, so she nodded and left in disappointment.

Gu Yunru returned to the room angrily and sat down. Qingxing came over with a hot towel and wiped her face.

"Princess, I was wondering if you had a wrestling match with the prince?"

"Why do you say that?"

"Look at yourself..." Qing Xing couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

"If you laugh again, I will hit you." Gu Yunru pretended to raise his hand, and Qingxing quickly begged for mercy.

"By the way, Princess, you will be going back to Gufu to visit your relatives tomorrow. Will the prince accompany you back?"

Qingxing quickly changed the subject, and Gu Yunru withdrew his hand.

"I don't know. He seems to be very busy. Forget it. He is busy being affectionate with Concubine Xie every day. How can he care about my business?"

When Gu Yunru thought about the words she overheard and Xie Bingyan's voice, she felt goosebumps all over her body.

The day to visit her parents has arrived, but she didn't expect Rong Zhen to remind her personally.

"Hurry up and go." Rong Zhen had already prepared a carriage outside the mansion. Gu Yunru was stunned for a moment, then quickly got dressed and followed him back to the Gu mansion.

Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu had been waiting at the door. When they finally saw the couple, they walked forward to greet them enthusiastically.

"Greetings to the prince and princess." Gu Yan saluted the two. Now he was very proud. One of his daughters became a princess, one entered the palace as an imperial concubine, and the other even married the current number one scholar! Who in the court would not bow down to him?

"Yeah." Rong Zhen walked in with a calm expression. Gu Yunru followed him in. There was no change in the courtyard, but Mrs. Gu was more enthusiastic than before.

"Yunru, I haven't seen you for these days and I miss you so much." Mrs. Gu looked at the two of them with a smile on her face. Gu Yunru kept a stiff smile throughout the whole time. She answered whatever Mrs. Gu asked, with a very rhythmic sense.

"By the way, father, I want to rebuild a ancestral hall for my mother. What do you think?" Gu Yunru thought that the original owner's biological mother was very pitiful and she was not able to enter the Gu family ancestral hall after her death.

As soon as these words were spoken, they aroused opposition from Mrs. Gu.

"No, how serious is the Gu Family Ancestral Hall?"

"It's not about entering the Gu family ancestral hall, but rebuilding a new one." Gu Yunru raised her eyebrows at Mrs. Gu, and the two of them were on edge for a while.

"Okay, okay, this is very simple. On your mother's death anniversary, your father will naturally make the decision." Gu Yan reluctantly agreed for Rong Zhen's sake. That woman has been dead for so many years, how could he still remember her? "I hope Daddy will keep his promise."

Gu Yunru breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her goal had been achieved.

After dinner, Rong Zhen took a carriage back to the palace.

"Thank you for what happened today." Gu Yunru knew that if he hadn't been here today, the construction of the ancestral hall for his biological mother would probably not have gone smoothly.

"I can understand you." Rong Zhen's expression was still indifferent, and he looked outside the carriage from time to time.

"By the way, shouldn't you and the Queen Mother also reconcile?"

Gu Yunru thought about his performance these days and recalled what the Queen Mother had told her. If Rong Zhen could change his mind, it would relieve the Queen Mother's worries.

"When will it be better?" Rong Zhen's words left her speechless. Yes, when will it be better? How could she talk about reconciliation?

Knowing that she was talking too much, Gu Yunru simply kept silent.

"Then just pretend I didn't say anything."

This matter seemed to be a concern for Rong Zhen, otherwise his reaction would not be so strong.

After returning to the palace, the two went their separate ways. Xie Bingyan witnessed this scene not far away, and looked at Mingyue behind her and said, "Do you think the prince has Gu Yunru in his heart?"

"Miss, everyone has seen this. The prince only has you in his heart."

"But why do I feel that these two people..." Xie Bingyan didn't know what kind of strange feeling this was. Whenever the two of them stood together, she would feel depressed.

"Miss, don't think too much. Since you entered the palace, the prince has been obedient to you. Isn't this enough?"

Xie Bingyan pursed her lips and smiled, which was obvious to everyone.

Gu Yunru returned to her room and began to think about making ointment. Qingxing came to her side rashly, opened her almond eyes curiously and asked: "Miss, what are you doing?"

"Herb Cream, I put a lot of herbs in it that are good for human skin nutrition. I will sell it on the market later."

"Ah." Qing Xing widened her eyes. She didn't expect that the young lady had this skill.

"This is the finished product. Have someone deliver it to Bingyan later."

Qing Xing looked at the paste in the small box and pouted, "Why did the young lady give it to her after she finished the first batch?"

"Just take it if I tell you to." Gu Yunru said impatiently and continued making the Baicao Frost.

"yes."

After giving the Baicao Frost to Mingyue, Mingyue took the thing and came to Xie Bingyan.

"Miss, please don't use this thing, in case the princess put something in it."

Mingyue's words reminded her. She looked around Baicao Shuang and said, "How can you just throw away something that was given to you with good intentions?"

"What do you mean, young lady?"

"Put something in it." Xie Bingyan held the Herb Frost with a smile on her face. She wanted to see how Rong Zhen would choose between the two of them.
