Chapter 307 Don’t Be a Crown Prince
Gu Jingchun nodded.
"That's right."
"The girls might feel a little reluctant to give up so many things."
"But these things are to be given to the people affected by the disaster.
These jewellery may just be an embellishment for girls.
But for the millions of people who can't even afford to eat, it means saving a life, or even an entire family's life."
Gu Jingchun's words gave them the title of saving the people.
No matter how unwilling they were, they were not allowed to take off the various exquisite hairpins and jewelry they had specially prepared from their heads or bodies.
Seeing that they were all unhappy, Gu Jingchun raised his eyebrows and added another sentence.
"From now on, girls, please cheer up and compete well."
"With His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here, girls, if you perform well, His Royal Highness might reward you!"
Chen Hechuan: ...
This is just a reminder to the girls that this is a great opportunity to show off.
Upon hearing this, the ladies were all delighted and tried their best to perform well.
And Shen Hechuan, who had shown no interest in them since he came in, actually showed great interest during their competition.
Occasionally, when he was happy, he would chuckle and ask the other person's name.
This made the ladies all very happy.
In order to be on the safe side, some women had to change the object of challenge and take out two new pieces of jewelry.
The women who won the prizes donated all their prizes because they were favored by the prince and wanted to show their generosity towards the people.
So, after this banquet, all the noble ladies took off all the pearls and jewelry on their bodies when they left, but they all looked happy when they left.
They all felt that they had a chance of marrying into the Eastern Palace.
The Queen Mother also enjoyed watching various performances and was in a good mood.
Gu Jingchun watched the people in the audience struggling to perform, as if he was watching fools dancing, and he watched with great interest.
Only, Shen Hechuan suffered a lot.
His thighs were now bruised.
Whenever he turned his head to look at Gu Jingchun, or every time he finished a performance, Gu Jingchun would pinch Shen Hechuan's leg to remind him that it was time to "praise" him.
It was as if he was being treated as a tool for entertainment.
As long as he opened his mouth and smiled, the girls would take out all their valuables.
Situ Mingji did not show up in the spotlight until the end of the banquet.
She also knew very well that she did not leave a good impression in Shen Hechuan's eyes, so she planned to take it step by step.
However, she did not expect that Chen Hechuan would indulge Gu Jingchun to this extent.
In order to allow Gu Jingchun to marry into the Eastern Palace smoothly, even the credit was completely pushed onto Gu Jingchun.
In order to build momentum for Gu Jingchun.
She is so lucky!
Situ Mingji gritted his teeth in hatred, but no trace of it showed on his face.
She walked out of the palace and saw Ding Jiaojiao cursing in front of her, and immediately she had an idea.
Ding Jiaojiao's father was originally just a small general.
Naturally, she had never had any good teachers since she was a child, so she naturally didn't know anything about music, chess, calligraphy, or painting.
So much so that in today's competition, she had nothing to perform.
She originally wanted to perform a sword dance, but because her clothes were too complicated, it lost its beauty, and she stepped on her skirt and was almost knocked down.
She was ridiculed for this.
Moreover, she clearly saw the word contempt in Shen Hechuan's eyes.
This made her even angrier, and she kept cursing all the way, hating Gu Jingchun even more.
At this moment, Situ Mingji walked over and spoke seemingly casually.
"See, I'm right, Gu Jingchun is not an ordinary woman. She not only has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince under her thumb."
"Moreover, he even used our things to gain a reputation as someone who loves the people. How despicable."
"right."
When Ding Jiaojiao heard this, she felt like she had found a partner, and started complaining to Situ Mingji.
Finally, Situ Mingji sighed.
"What's the point of us getting angry here? Who made His Royal Highness the Crown Prince obey her?"
Ding Jiaojiao became even more angry after hearing this.
"Is there no other way to deal with her?"
Situ Mingji sighed.
"She has the support of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. No one in the world can deal with her except Your Majesty."
After Situ Mingji finished speaking, he sighed again, turned around and left.
Ding Jiaojiao gritted her teeth in hatred.
"How despicable! Even if he has the Crown Prince's support, what does it matter?"
"I will definitely find a way to teach her a lesson."
After she finished speaking, she looked up and found that she had walked into the imperial garden without knowing when.
At this time, the flowers in the Imperial Garden were in full bloom.
She couldn't help but look a few more times, but she didn't expect that a ferocious eunuch suddenly stood in front of her.
"Your Excellency, His Majesty is resting here and no one can disturb him. Please return."
When Ding Jiaojiao heard that Emperor Rongcheng was here, she was shocked and wanted to leave immediately.
But suddenly he thought of something, turned around, and asked carefully: "Little eunuch, what will happen if I insist on going in?"
The young eunuch looked at her as if she were an idiot.
"What do you say? It's a dead end!"
When Ding Jiaojiao heard this, she immediately had an idea.
She walked to a secluded place and called a little palace maid.
After giving some instructions, he hid it with satisfaction.
After everyone left, Gu Jingchun wanted to leave.
But Chen Hechuan kept holding her and refused to let go.
Seeing that Chen Hechuan was becoming more and more clingy, Gu Jingchun couldn't help but coax him: "Okay, how about I come to accompany you in the evening?"
"Now, I still have a lot of things to deal with!"
Shen Hechuan couldn't help but frown and sighed helplessly.
"Ah, I shouldn't have let you host this annoying palace banquet. You don't even have any time. You're actually busier than me, the crown prince."
Gu Jingchun chuckled when he heard this.
"How about you just stop being the crown prince? Then I won't have to worry about these banquets in the palace. We can just spend every day together. How about that?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Hechuan couldn't help but think seriously.
Seeing this, Gu Jingchun couldn't help but shake him to prevent him from thinking any further.
"I was just kidding, you didn't really remember it, did you?"
Shen Hechuan nodded.
"I think your idea is very good. When the time comes, we can open another inn. Then I will accompany you to the mountains to fold snowflakes every day. How about it?"
Gu Jingchun really missed those peaceful days and nodded.
