Chapter 115: Disrespecting the Royal Family?
At the beginning, marrying Luo Ziqian was a plan she had carefully prepared.
Now, Mingming has achieved her goal.
However, she began to feel annoyed in her heart.
In particular, after she learned that Luo Ziqian was not a homosexual, this was different from her initial assumption.
But this marriage happened to be arranged by His Majesty. From the moment His Majesty arranged the marriage, it was no longer something I could control.
It's really like shooting oneself in the foot.
Thinking of this, Gu Jingchun sighed, turned around and entered the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
As soon as she entered, Gu Jingchun learned the news from the gatekeeper. Gu Weiang asked her to go to the main hall.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun thought about how he had left in a hurry and had not yet settled some accounts with them, so he told Xiaoman to take Gu Jinxi back to the yard first, and he turned around and went to the main hall.
Gu Jingchun had just stepped into the main hall and had not yet saluted when he heard Chu Qianlan's cold snort.
"You still remember to come back!"
"I thought you had lost track of your own home now that you were with the Queen Mother."
Gu Jingchun chuckled when he heard this.
"Mother, what you said is strange. As long as the Yong'an Marquis Mansion is still there, this door will always be there. Could it be that mother hopes that the door lintel of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion will fall down?"
This is what Gu Weiang hates to hear the most.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, he immediately became a little colder and glared at Chu Qianlan.
Chu Qianlan felt frustrated and couldn't help but mutter again.
"What nonsense are you talking about? That's not what I meant."
However, Gu Weiang suddenly shouted at him.
"Just stop talking!"
After saying that, he looked at Gu Jingchun.
"What exactly happened?"
"How could you be abducted by the people of Da Qi?"
"And why was I summoned to the palace to pray for the Queen Mother?"
"When did you catch the Queen Mother's eye?"
Four questions in a row made Gu Jingchun pause.
She also wanted to know what happened.
After she came back from outside the city, she was locked in the East Palace. She knew nothing about the explanations given by people in Tiandu City about her "resurrection from the dead". How should she explain it now?
Therefore, she could only pretend to be mysterious and sighed softly.
"Please forgive me, Father. The Crown Prince and the Queen Mother have instructed us not to elaborate on this matter, as it is a confidential matter. As for the rumors outside, they are not far from the truth."
Gu Weiang frowned when he heard this.
"Then why did you come into conflict with His Royal Highness Prince Rui?"
Gu Jingchun raised his eyebrows and explained:
"Father, please understand. It's clear that His Royal Highness Prince Rui was plotting against His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He even dragged his daughter into this trap and ultimately tried to kill her to silence her."
"It has nothing to do with my daughter."
Upon hearing this, Gu Weiang stared at Gu Jingchun closely, as if he wanted to see something from Gu Jingchun's face.
"Our Marquisate is now at the center of public controversy and is a thorn in the side of Emperor Rongcheng."
"At this time, you must not get too close to Prince Rui and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, lest you arouse His Majesty's suspicion and bring trouble to the Marquis' Mansion."
Gu Jingchun nodded when he heard this and couldn't help but look at Gu Weiang again.
For some reason, she always felt that Gu Weiang's words today were strange.
After Gu Weiang finished speaking, Chu Qianlan slowly spoke:
"Now that you're back, stay in the courtyard and prepare for the wedding in three days."
"Do you know how worried your father and I were during your absence?
Even with the emperor's decree, we can't find you.
Since you are serving in the Queen Mother's palace, you should also inform your family."
Chu Qianlan said this, her tone full of dissatisfaction with Gu Jingchun.
"I know you've just arrived in Tiandu, and now you've been blessed with the chance to be chosen by the Queen Mother. It's inevitable that you're feeling a bit overwhelmed, thinking you've achieved immortality and possessed extraordinary abilities, and you don't even take others seriously."
Chu Qianlan changed the subject.
“But you know, being able to copy Buddhist scriptures for the Queen Mother doesn’t just depend on your good fortune, but more on the status of the Yong’an Marquisate.
If it's not the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, who does the Queen Mother know you as?"
“Therefore, you should always remember the careful cultivation and support that the Yong’an Marquisate has given you.
If there is another opportunity like this, you should also speak well of our Yong'an Marquisate in front of the Queen Mother."
"Only in this way can the Yong'an Marquisate continue to grow stronger, and only in this way can better people support you."
Hearing this, Gu Jingchun seemed to have heard a joke and almost laughed out loud.
Chu Qianlan seemed unaware and continued, "Your sister is the same. Ever since she married the Third Prince, she has been praising our Yong'an Marquisate.
Therefore, the Third Prince specially allowed her to stay in the palace for a few days after returning home."
"As for you, I don't expect you to bring much help to the Yong'an Marquisate, but you must not drag it down."
Hearing this, Gu Jingchun sneered in his heart.
How many days will you stay after returning home?
It seems that Chu Qianlan is really a fool.
In this world, which daughter-in-law can stay for a few days when she returns to her parents' home?
There was clearly something fishy going on here, but Chu Qianlan was kept in the dark and actually thought it was a good thing.
Thinking of his own experiences in his previous life, it was not difficult for Gu Jingchun to guess Gu Yunjin's current situation.
When Chu Qianlan said this, he seemed to remember something and continued to explain:
"I almost forgot to tell you that your sister and the Third Prince got married a few days ago.
Therefore, you don't need to prepare anything for your wedding. You can just use what your sister has and just add some more.
It saves a lot of trouble, otherwise you might not be able to get married in time."
Gu Jingchun sneered in his heart when he heard this.
If it weren't for the fact that she didn't care about these things, I would definitely have argued with her.
But now, she had more important things to do, so she said, "If that's the case, then my sister must be in the mansion now!"
Hearing this, Chu Qianlan frowned.
"She is now the Third Prince's consort. How can you just call her sister?"
"Now that you're back, you should be greeted by her first, just to be in accordance with etiquette. Otherwise, you might be accused of disrespecting the royal family!"
Gu Jingchun almost cursed out loud when he heard this.
She doesn't even need to bow to the prince now, but she still has to bow to Gu Yunjin?
She wanted to see if Gu Yunjin could accept her gift.
Thinking of this, Gu Jingchun was too lazy to say anything more to Chu Qianlan. After saying a few words to her, he went to Gu Yunjin's yard.
Chu Qianlan was even more proud after hearing this, as if Gu Yunjin was her own biological daughter, and said proudly:
"Times are different now. When you meet the Third Prince's wife, you must be more cautious and not bring your inferior country habits with you, lest you offend her!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun glanced at Chu Qianlan indifferently.
"Could it be that the Third Prince's Consort's status is higher than that of the Empress Dowager?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Qianlan immediately retorted.
"What nonsense are you talking about? The Queen Mother is the most noble woman in the world. No matter how noble Jin'er is, she is just a prince's consort. How can she be higher than the Queen Mother?"
