Gu Erli and Ye Wenxi were constantly arguing over who would get the best spot, while Luo Kejin and Liu Sihua stood behind them, both beaming with smiles.
Beside Liu Sihua were Luo Ziqian and Princess Rongyang, who were playfully fighting.
Upon seeing Gu Jingchun, they all knelt down and bowed in respect.
Gu Jingchun quickly told them to get up and then went into the mansion with them.
Afterwards, everyone gathered together and enjoyed a wonderful reunion dinner.
I enjoyed the meal very much.
The laughter and chatter brought Gu Jingchun a warmth he had rarely experienced before.
Meanwhile, in the palace...
Gu Jinxi threw the folded document in her hand onto the table, her face full of resentment.
"I'm only six years old!"
"Only six years old!"
"Go out and ask around, whose six-year-old child is already handling official documents?"
"How can Father trust me with such an important matter?"
"He's doing much better; he's accompanying his mother on her homecoming trip."
"Look, it's been three days since the wedding, and I haven't had a chance to say more than a few words to my mother. My father has been taking up all of my time."
“I want to sleep with my mother at night, but you won’t let me. During the day, my mother doesn’t wake up until late in the morning, and when she does, she starts doing all sorts of things.”
"I stared longingly for so long, but I couldn't see my mother even once."
"Today, I was planning to go back to my parents' home with my mother, but I didn't expect to be tricked into coming here by my father." "He went with my mother, though."
Gu Jinxi became increasingly angry as she spoke.
"Tell me, is there really such a thing as a father like him?"
Xiaoman stood to the side with a blank expression, only in this way could she prevent her inner thoughts from being revealed.
He simply advised, "Your Highness, who made you exceptionally intelligent compared to children your age?"
"Since you know a lot, you must also bear a lot. Look at all these memorials. You'd better hurry up, otherwise, when the Empress returns home, you won't have time to go see her."
If you encounter a memorial you are unsure about, you can present it separately and let His Majesty decide upon his decision after his return.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jinxi sighed softly and then resumed her arduous task of reviewing the memorials.
Unfortunately, even though Gu Jinxi had finished reviewing all the memorials well in advance, she still didn't get to see her mother.
After Gu Jingchun returned, Shen Hechuan took her directly back to the palace, and she never came out again.
Poor Gu Jinxi waited anxiously at the door, watching the light in Gu Jingchun's room go out before storming off.
However, after this incident, Gu Jinxi became smarter.
He would always come to see Gu Jingchun during mealtimes.
She even cried and poured out her heart to Gu Jingchun about how much she missed him during this time.
This made Gu Jingchun feel both guilty and heartbroken, so he decided to sleep with Gu Jinxi that night.
This caused Shen Hechuan's expression to change instantly.
But after Gu Jingchun glared at her, nothing more happened.

Meanwhile, in the far north, in the Great Qi Kingdom, the scene was quite different.
Mo Junxing was rubbing a hairpin back and forth in his palm.
The wooden hairpin became shiny and beautiful from repeated rubbing in his hands.
However, Mo Junxing's expression at this moment was terrifying.
He couldn't help but sneer as he listened to the news his subordinate had just delivered.
"You got married!"
He chuckled softly, but it sent chills down one's spine.
"I really can't wait!"
His hand holding the hairpin tightened continuously.
"So you really want to go and bring them back again?"
The eunuch Dasheng beside him immediately knelt down and pleaded, "Your Majesty, you must reconsider!"
"After you left last time, Empress Dowager Xiao seized control of the court and secretly plotted against you, nearly causing your death."
"Now that you've come back and finally stabilized the situation, you absolutely cannot leave again."
Mo Junxing snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain.
"Empress Dowager Xiao".
"That's about all she's capable of."
"It's time to deal with her."
"If it weren't for her, I would be the one getting married right now. In that case, let's start with Empress Dowager Xiao."
Upon hearing this, Da Sheng was filled with astonishment.
After all these years, no matter what Empress Dowager Xiao did, Mo Junxing always maintained a degree of leniency towards her and was never willing to kill her.
But why are they suddenly going to attack her now?
Da Sheng didn't quite understand.
However, ever since Mo Junxing returned from Daqi, his personality has become increasingly unpredictable.
He no longer seemed as cold as before. However, dealing with Empress Dowager Xiao at this moment would likely be even more disadvantageous for Mo Junxing.
Therefore, Da Sheng advised, "Your Majesty, if something were to happen to Empress Dowager Xiao at this time, it would likely have a negative impact on you."
Mo Junxing sneered.
"Whatever!"
At this moment, Mo Junxing had already stood up.
Gu Jingchun suddenly came to his mind.
For so many years, he has lived a cold and aloof life, and nothing has ever gone wrong.
But just then, a woman burst in, gradually bringing flesh and blood, and warmth back to his cold heart.
But just then, the woman ran away.
If he can't win her back today, he might as well just wipe out Dacheng. Then, Gu Jingchun will be his.
******
The morning court session on the fourth day after Gu Jingchun and Shen Hechuan's wedding.
Gu Jingchun and Shen Hechuan attended the morning court together.
All the ministers were taken aback by this.
In their view, handling political affairs together was nothing more than reviewing memorials together. However, they never expected that Shen Hechuan would actually ask Gu Jingchun to attend court with her.
This immediately caused an uproar among the officials.
Of course, Shen Hechuan had anticipated their reaction and repeatedly ignored their advice.
The ministers spoke up several times, but Shen Hechuan remained obstinate and went to plot against Gu Jingchun again.
But Gu Jingchun pretended to be stupid.
Gradually, the ministers became numb.
At this time, Gu Jingchun handled several political matters efficiently and effectively.
Her abilities were gradually recognized by the officials, and the voices of opposition gradually diminished.
However, after this matter was over, another matter began to come knocking.
Gu Jingchun never expected that one day she would still be troubled by the pressure to have children.
She watched as the Empress Dowager repeatedly asked her about the reaction in her belly.
Gu Jingchun felt a little uncomfortable at first, but eventually he became numb to it.
Although Shen Hechuan didn't say it, he would still bring it up unintentionally.
Just then, Shen Hechuan was watching Gu Jinxi eat when he suddenly spoke up.
“Xi’er is already so big. If she has a little sister, she probably won’t cling to her mother anymore.”
One sentence was enough to make Gu Jingchun and Gu Jinxi both...
