"Your mother is a very good person, very kind and helpful. Everyone in the palace loves her very much." In order to prevent him from having doubts in his heart, Gu Yunru made up a series of lies just to make Concubine Rong leave a better impression in the heart of her son.

"So that's how it is." Yin Cheng seemed a little relieved, and he was not so tense and nervous anymore. After taking notes, he was ready to leave. On the way, he ran into a group of foreign envoys who seemed to be discussing something. Driven by curiosity, he leaned close to the rock and listened secretly.

"I heard that the Eighth Princess's reputation has been ruined. Let's not take her back to a foreign country to marry."

"The Ninth Princess hasn't even reached the age of marriage yet, what should we do with this child?"

Everyone was chatting away, when Gu Yunru appeared in front of them at an inopportune moment, startling everyone.

"princess……"

Everyone recognized Gu Yunru and bowed to her in unison, their expressions still humble and respectful.

"What are you gossiping about here?" Gu Yunru walked over and surrounded the crowd. Everyone remained silent. They all looked extremely guilty, which made her laugh and cry.

"Princess... Concubine, when will His Royal Highness Prince Zhao be willing to discuss this marriage with us? We have visited him several times, but were turned away every time." Everyone began to complain. Prince Zhao was in charge of this matter, so naturally they had to find Prince Zhao to talk to him. However, they didn't expect that after so many days in Da Qi, they hadn't even seen Prince Zhao.

It also happened to coincide with the Empress Dowager's funeral, which was extremely unlucky.

Gu Yunru rolled her eyes and looked at the envoys. "Don't worry, everyone. This marriage is all about efficiency. I will make arrangements for the Eighth Princess and the Ninth Princess. You don't have to worry."

"Thank you, Princess." Everyone nodded in agreement, and only breathed a sigh of relief after Gu Yunru walked away. As soon as Gu Yunru returned to the palace, she saw Wu Liang, who was wrapped in gauze like a mummy, and wanted to walk out of the house.

"Wait, wait, why are you coming out at this time?" Gu Yunru looked him up and down, wishing she could kick him back.

"Sister, I'm injured like this, and Miss Ruyan hasn't come in to see me. Do you think she's blaming me for ruining the last date?"

Wu Liang looked at her with lingering fear. She didn't want to mess things up, but God was so blind that his well-planned date was ruined again and again.

"Where's Ji Heng?" Gu Yunru looked into the room. Wu Liang said, "Master Ji just left and you came back. I thought it would be a bit embarrassing for me to go see Ruyan like this. What happened yesterday was really embarrassing!"

After all, it was because his kung fu was not practiced solidly. Wu Liang blamed himself very much. He sat beside the stone table, sighing and shaking his head.

"Brother, why do you have so little self-confidence? Ruyan doesn't like a man with extraordinary martial arts skills. The most important thing is to know him, understand him, and be able to protect him. Don't you understand this yet?"

Gu Yunru poured a cup of tea in front of him and comforted him in every way she could, just hoping that he could regain that little bit of self-confidence.

"I know everything you said, but when that day really comes, I will be like a piece of wood. Just like yesterday, I will be very embarrassed..." Wu Liang wanted to die, let alone have the face to see Ruyan.

"Hey, if you don't go then I will!" Gu Yunru was going to see how Ruyan was doing, but she didn't expect him to procrastinate again and again. This kind of man can't accomplish anything big in love, and he doesn't have any future in his career.

"Hey, I'll go too..." Wu Liang followed her closely, as if he was afraid of missing something. His attentiveness made her laugh and cry.

"Ruyan, how are you?" Gu Yunru opened the door and walked in. The room was filled with the elegant and refreshing scent of mint. This was Ruyan's favorite scent. She would fumigate every piece of clothing with this fragrance. The whole room was filled with her scent, making people feel comfortable as soon as they walked in.

Wu Liang stood timidly at the door. He was too embarrassed to come in, but Gu Yunru gave him a sharp look, and he slowly walked in.

"Ahem, Ruyan, are you okay? I saw you coughing all the time yesterday, so I didn't feel comfortable coming in to see you. Don't worry, I'm fine. These things were wrapped by my sister. She said I was fine, so why did she wrap me with so much gauze?" Wu Liang said stubbornly. He wanted to peel off the gauze, but found that the medicine and the flesh were already glued together. If he wanted to peel off the gauze deeply, he would have to endure the pain of tearing the skin and flesh! Gu Yunru rolled his eyes helplessly. This guy was really good at acting. He sat beside Ruyan's bed and took her pulse. He found that she was just too frightened and there was no big problem. He tucked the quilt for her and said softly, "Did you drink the medicine yesterday?" Ruyan nodded, still so intellectual and gentle.

Wu Liang looked a little embarrassed, neither standing nor sitting. He looked like a meat dumpling. Gu Yunru didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she winked at Wu Liang and left this space for the two of them, hoping that he could grasp it well. Although the previous two dates had been ruthlessly overturned, with Gu Yunru, she would definitely be able to create a perfect date plan again!

"Shu'er?" Gu Yunru had returned to Ginkgo Garden, but found Shu'er already standing there. Shu'er walked up to him and lowered her head and said, "I heard that Ruyan and Wu Liang encountered bandits. Is that true?" Gu Yunru nodded and said, "Yes, Ji Heng also led his troops to rescue them. Why didn't Ji Heng tell you about this?"

Looking at Shu'er, who looked serious, she took his hand and sat in the yard, talking about what happened that day, "Luckily, the two guys I sent went to the government office to report the news in time, so Ji Heng just happened to follow Rong Zhen to rescue people. Why didn't he tell you about this? Did you two do this because of Ruyan's matter, so..."

Before Gu Yunru finished speaking, she saw that she looked miserable and her eyes were slightly red. It seemed that she was very sad about Ji Heng's affairs. She hurriedly comforted her, "Okay, okay, please don't cry. I just said this casually. Please don't take it to heart..."
