This statement contains a lot of information.
It turned out that Chu Qianlan deliberately sent Gu Jingchun to contact the Third Prince so that he would take a liking to her.
But she fell asleep in the pavilion, which delayed the matter.
When Gu Jingchun woke up, he found everyone talking about it, and then he realized that the sky had fallen.
Having grown up in the countryside and having little experience of the world, she immediately panicked.
She knelt down tremblingly, begging Chu Qianlan for forgiveness, but unexpectedly revealed Chu Qianlan's plan by mistake.
Immediately, the ladies present began to discuss it.
"So, Madam Gu deliberately set a trap to make the Third Prince marry his own daughter, Gu Jingchun!"
"It seems that the rumors circulating among the people of Tiandu are actually true! The Marquis of Yong'an brought his biological daughter back to marry this fake heiress in place of her."
"How cruel! She's her own daughter after all. She suffered in the countryside for so many years, and I never thought that she would be brought back to take the place of that adopted daughter, Gu Yunjin, and be thrown into a pit of fire."
"Tsk tsk tsk!"
"The Marquis of Yong'an's family has really made a good plan!"
"If this scheme succeeds, wouldn't their carefully cultivated adopted daughter be able to escape unscathed, and perhaps even find a good marriage?"
"It's pitiful for this widow from the countryside, she's already a widow, alas..."
When everyone talked about this, they all lowered their voices, afraid that the Empress Dowager would hear them.
"Moreover, since it was the Third Prince who chose her, even the Emperor probably can't say anything."
A sigh escaped from the crowd.
The Empress Dowager's expression was beyond just ugly.
She looked at Chu Qianlan with an anger in her eyes that could have killed her tens of thousands of times over.
Chu Qianlan, however, was completely unaware of this.
She was completely petrified, oblivious and unable to hear anything.
After a long while, she finally found her voice and uttered a hoarse sentence.
"You...you're here, then...who is the person the Third Prince is holding?"
yes!
This also served as a reminder to everyone.
Chu Qianlan's plan failed. The Third Prince did not see her. So, who did the Third Prince take a fancy to?
Almost simultaneously, the Third Prince walked through the corridor and came out of the side room.
He was also carrying a woman on his shoulder.
The woman was screaming and struggling on top of him.
Upon seeing the Empress Dowager, Shen Xunwen immediately ran over with joy.
This movement caused the person on his shoulder to bounce, and they couldn't help but struggle again.
After he walked up to the Empress Dowager, fearing that she might affect her, he immediately punched her buttocks several times.
Suddenly, the person on the shoulder screamed, but then stopped struggling.
"Grandma, look, Xun'er has found Little Grey."
The Empress Dowager looked at the person on Shen Xunwen's shoulder, frowned and sighed softly.
"Xun'er, don't be silly. This is clearly a person, not Little Gray. Hurry up and put him down. It would be bad if you frightened the girl."
But Shen Xunwen wouldn't listen. He pouted and immediately said, "This is Little Grey, this is Little Grey. I can't be wrong. If you don't believe me, I'll show you."
Shen Xunwen stomped his feet like a child, causing his fat to tremble and emitting an unpleasant odor that nearly made Gu Yunjin, who was already dizzy, faint.
Just then, she felt a sharp pain all over her body, as if someone had grabbed her.
Immediately afterwards, her body was thrown down by Shen Xunwen like a sack, and she crashed heavily to the ground.
The intense pain made Gu Yunjin scream, and tears instantly streamed down her face.
She looked around and saw all sorts of faces, some surprised, some disdainful, and some sympathetic.
However, she was in so much pain that she couldn't care less about anything else until she saw Chu Qianlan looking utterly astonished in the crowd.
She could no longer hold back and reached out her hand to Chu Qianlan.
"Mother, Mother, please save me! Mother, Jin'er is in so much pain."
"Please help me, Jin'er is in so much pain!"
Gu Yunjin cried and screamed.
Chu Qianlan was shocked.
Her lips trembled violently.
She never expected that the person the Third Prince was holding was her beloved daughter, Gu Yunjin.
This was her daughter, whom she had carefully raised and pampered since childhood, yet Shen Xunwen treated her like this.
She rushed over like a madwoman and hugged Gu Yunjin tightly.
"Don't touch my daughter!"
"Don't touch my daughter!"
"Who gave you permission to touch my daughter!"
Chu Qianlan shouted out.
Shen Xunwen, however, seemed not to hear her. He irritably pushed her away, grabbed Gu Yunjin, and took out the puppy pendant hanging around her neck to show the Empress Dowager.
"Grandma, look."
“You told Xun’er before that Xiao Hui would go somewhere else after it died, but it might turn into something else to keep me company someday.”
“Look, it’s back now, and it’s come back to be with me in the form of this woman.”
"this……"
The Empress Dowager looked at the puppy pendant, then her gaze fell on Chu Qianlan's face again.
No wonder!
No wonder Chu Qianlan was so certain that the Third Prince would choose Gu Jingchun.
So it was because of this little dog pendant!
The Marquis of Yong'an has actually extended his reach into the inner palace!
If this pendant were to be worn around Gu Jingchun's neck, the Third Prince would surely do the same.
Then Gu Jingchun would naturally replace Gu Yunjin and marry the Third Prince!
