Chapter 50 Luo Ziqian Finally Arrives
The hairpin is made entirely of gold, the top is gilded, and it is inlaid with many rubies.
Among them, the most shocking thing is that there is a golden pearl the size of a pigeon egg inlaid on the top.
This pearl is round and shiny, and there is a string of relatively smaller pearl tassels underneath, which is swaying slightly with Chen Hechuan's movements, which looks very beautiful.
Gu Jingchun boasted that he had seen countless treasures, but he had never seen such a big gold bead.
This hairpin is definitely something extraordinary.
It is not common even in the imperial palace.
However, she did not want such things from the palace.
The real reason is that, given her current relationship with Shen Hechuan, if she accepted this thing, what would that mean?
One of his mistresses?
Besides, since she was planning to leave, she might as well stop him from thinking about it.
So, she pushed the hairpin away and shook her head.
"I have many jewels, and I don't need this hairpin. Your Highness, please take it back!"
Shen Hechuan frowned.
"But you don't like it?"
Gu Jingchun was about to nod when he heard Shen Hechuan continue:
"There are a few red-inlaid hairpins and a jade hairpin inlaid with emerald green in the palace. If you don't like them, I will give them to you next time."
Hearing this, Gu Jingchun quickly spoke.
"It's not that I don't like it."
"But such a valuable item would only be possessed by those in the imperial palace. If I were to wear it, it would certainly arouse suspicion and lead to suspicion."
Moreover, if she accepted it this time, based on her understanding of Shen Hechuan, he would probably send her a few other hairpins as well.
Such an action would certainly arouse suspicion from other people in the palace.
The situation in the palace was complicated, and she didn't want to be discovered and cause unnecessary trouble.
When Shen Hechuan heard this, he immediately understood what Gu Jingchun was thinking.
He held Gu Jingchun's hand, feeling the soft touch in his hand, and then he comforted him softly:
"Don't worry, I'm here. I will definitely protect you and your son. I will never let you get hurt."
"I know you want to stand by my side openly."
"I am no different."
"It's just that the situation in the palace is complicated, and your marriage to Naro Ziqian was granted by the Emperor, so you can't be impatient and must proceed slowly.
But don't worry, I will definitely find a way to make you stand before me openly."
"As for Luo Ziqian, you don't have to worry. I will arrange everything and will never let him get close to you."
In Shen Hechuan's eyes, Gu Jingchun should be the same as him at this moment, with his heart and eyes full of him.
She had previously been troubled by not knowing his identity as the crown prince, which was why she wanted to marry Luo Ziqian.
Now that they have recognized each other, he must bring her back to his side.
However, the situation in the court was complicated, and he needed to plan carefully to better protect Gu Jingchun from criticism and harm.
But when Gu Jingchun heard this, he had a different idea.
In her opinion, Chen Hechuan laid so much groundwork just to coax her into becoming his mistress.
He doesn't understand men, and he doesn't trust men.
Men are the vested interests who love themselves and power the most.
In her opinion, Shen Hechuan is a prince who is already in a difficult situation. How could he risk affecting his position as prince to marry her?
He must have said nice things on purpose to coax her.
Gu Jingchun sneered in his heart.
I didn't expect this guy's mouth is even better at coaxing than before.
In the past, he would have promised her the status of a concubine.
Now he still wants her to be his mistress. It's simply a pipe dream.
When Gu Jingchun thought of this, his heart turned cold and he made up his mind to stay away from him.
However, her face was calm.
As for Chen Hechuan's words, she could only pretend to agree and appease him first.
Only in this way can she escape successfully.
Only after Chen Hechuan left did Gu Jingchun go out with a cold face.
When Lan Xin saw her come out, she immediately asked her worriedly.
"Miss, are you okay?"
"fine."
Gu Jingchun shook his head, hurriedly took Lan Xin downstairs, and walked towards Luo Mansion.
However, before she had taken a few steps, she saw Luo Ziqian walking towards her in a disheveled state.
When Luo Ziqian saw Gu Jingchun, he hurriedly stopped, straightened his clothes, and adjusted his hair crown. Then he walked up to Gu Jingchun and slowly bowed.
"Miss Gu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I encountered some accidents on the way, so I'm late."
Luo Ziqian's incident this time was not just an accident.
He made an appointment to meet Gu Jingchun today because he was worried about her safety and wanted to explain to her what happened that day.
Secondly, he also wanted to return the hairpin he picked up that day to her.
Of course, the most important reason was that he wanted to see her again.
However, he never expected that after he came out of Luo Mansion and got on the carriage, he had just taken a few steps when the carriage broke down.
Fortunately, he had not gone far, so he hurried back home to change carriages.
But this time the carriage broke down again halfway through its journey.
Seeing that time was running out, Luo Ziqian gave up the idea of going back to change carriages and simply got off and prepared to walk over.
But the journey was also very turbulent.
First, he was bumped into by someone on the road for no reason and almost fell down.
Later, he discovered that his wallet had been stolen at some point.
At that time, he was dissatisfied with the servants walking too slowly, so he asked them to go back to the house to change carriages so that they could pick him up.
So now he was penniless, tired and hungry.
But at this moment, a couple on the roadside started fighting.
Luo Ziqian listened casually and understood the whole story.
It turned out that the wife found out that her husband was having an affair with the young widow next door, and gave her all the money he had earned recently.
She was so angry that she grabbed the man's clothes and started scolding him.
This commotion immediately attracted a lot of onlookers, and thus blocked the road.
Luo Ziqian couldn't get through at all, and finally he had to push through the crowd with great difficulty and barely squeezed in.
But because of this, the clothes that I specially prepared got a lot of wrinkles.
He stamped his feet in anger. If he hadn't been in a hurry, he would have scolded those people who just wanted to watch the fun.
He walked faster and faster because he was angry.
As a result, he stepped on a grape peel that someone had thrown away and fell flat on his face.
…
It can be said that Luo Ziqian went through a lot of hardships to get here safely.
And the other side.
Tianji felt a little annoyed when he saw that Luo Ziqian still met Gu Jingchun.
He apologized to Shen Hechuan with some shame.
Chen Hechuan also knew that Tianji had tried his best.
After all, it is not easy to stop Luo Ziqian without being discovered by him.
When Gu Jingchun saw Luo Ziqian in such a mess, he was a little surprised, but still relieved.
"Mr. Luo... I'm glad you're alright."
Luo Ziqian shook his head.
"It's okay, it's okay, I... my carriage broke down on the way, and then I encountered a couple arguing, so that delayed me."
"A couple quarreling?"
Gu Jingchun was puzzled.
Upon hearing this, Luo Ziqian immediately told Gu Jingchun everything he had seen and heard along the way.
He described it vividly, and just a few words made Gu Jingchun smile.
The two walked slowly on the road. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They seemed like a match made in heaven, attracting the attention of many passers-by.
Since returning to Tiandu, Gu Jingchun has not had a good time strolling around this bustling street market.
Now that I am walking leisurely like this, I feel a little more at peace.
She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Luo Ziqian.
With clean eyebrows and innocent eyes, if it weren't for the appearance of Shen Hechuan, it would really be a good choice for her to marry him.
What a pity.
Based on Shen Hechuan's current identity, he will definitely stop this marriage.
