Chapter 168 Entering the Palace
When he put it in his mouth, it was sweet but not greasy, and the fragrance lingered in his mouth, which made Shen Hechuan eat one more piece.
But it was only one piece, and when I tried to eat again, I found that the plate was empty.
Gu Jinxi's pitiful publishing company Shen Hechuan.
"Uncle, I only ate four pieces, why are you eating so much..."
That eager look, coupled with his tone, instantly turned him into a poor little being bullied.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother could no longer bear it and immediately scolded Chen Hechuan:
"This is what Jingchun made for Xier. You're already a grown-up, yet you're still fighting with a child for food."
Chen Hechuan: ...
He really felt so wronged.
Didn’t Gu Jinxi ask him to eat it?
He didn't eat much!
Gu Jingchun saw Chen Hechuan's frustrated look and couldn't help but grin. Then he asked:
"Have you found out who did it?"
Shen Hechuan nodded.
"I've already confessed everything. As for the person behind it, I'm sure you've already guessed it."
Gu Jingchun spoke tentatively.
"Noble Concubine Hui?"
Shen Hechuan nodded.
"She's spent a fortune this time, hiring out a lot of assassins. I guess she's already guessed Xier's identity."
Chen Hechuan's face was full of guilt.
"Jingchun, this was my negligence."
He had just made a promise to Gu Jingchun that he would protect Gu Jingchun and Gu Jinxi.
But unexpectedly, Gu Jinxi almost got into danger.
This made him feel extremely ashamed.
The Queen Mother shouted angrily upon hearing this.
“It’s this guy indeed!”
"I have long said that she would be a disaster sooner or later, but Your Majesty would not listen. I never thought that her ambition would be so great now.
I will definitely not forgive her when I return home, right?"
Gu Jingchun turned to look at the Queen Mother.
"How will the Queen Mother punish her?"
"The struggle for imperial power is a matter of life and death. Now that Concubine Hui has discovered Gu Jinxi's identity, she will definitely take action again in the future."
"I didn't want to enter the palace before because I didn't want Gu Jinxi's identity to be exposed and cause unnecessary trouble."
"But now, instead of hiding in the dark, we might as well go straight into the palace and confront her head-on."
After Gu Jingchun finished speaking, Shen Hechuan's face lit up and he looked at Gu Jingchun with some joy.
"You mean, you want to enter the palace?"
Gu Jingchun nodded, immediately looked at the Queen Mother, and knelt down and said:
"Please, Queen Mother, arrange a suitable identity for me. I will definitely enter the palace and avenge Xier with my own hands."
No one can bully her Xier!
No matter who bullied him, she would avenge Xier no matter where she went.
The Queen Mother had not expected Gu Jingchun to actually make such a request. She was stunned for a moment before she said, "Okay."
"In that case, you should go to the Crown Prince first. As for your identity, there is no need to be strict about it. This will also pave the way for you to enter the palace in the future."
Gu Jingchun nodded without any objection.
As for entering the palace in the future, that is a matter for the future.
But this news made Shen Hechuan very happy.
Now that Gu Jingchun has agreed to enter the palace, does that mean it’s not long before she agrees to be his Crown Princess?
The Queen Mother was actually happy to see this happen.
She was a vengeful person and was very dissatisfied with her great-grandson being bullied. Even if Gu Jingchun didn't say anything, she would find a way to make Concubine Hui suffer.
Now that Gu Jingchun is planning to enter the palace, it is exactly what she wants.
This is good. Once Gu Jingchun enters the palace, she will be able to see her great-grandson often.
Moreover, the palace is heavily guarded, which can better protect Gu Jingchun and the others.
The Queen Mother also breathed a sigh of relief when she thought of this.
But when he thought about the marriage granted by Emperor Rongcheng to Shen Hechuan, his heart began to lift again.
In the future, she could also persuade Gu Jingchun more. If she wanted to marry Chen Hechuan, she would inevitably have three wives and four concubines.
Gu Jingchun will have to come to terms with it sooner or later.
The Queen Mother was just thinking about this when a sweet and innocent voice came over.
"What smells so good?"
Princess Rongyang rushed in after smelling the scent.
But when I walked forward, I realized that the two people in front of me looked familiar.
She looked at the Queen Mother, then at Chen Hechuan, and was stunned on the spot.
Finally, the Queen Mother couldn't help herself and spoke first:
"Rongyang, why are you here?"
Chen Hechuan: "Who asked you to leave the palace?"
Shen Rongyang: Who can save her?
Who could tell her why the empress dowager, who was supposed to be in the palace, appeared in Gu Jingchun's yard at this moment?
And why is Chen Hechuan here?
She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Gu Jingchun.
Seeing this, Gu Jingchun smiled and explained:
"Today at the banquet, Her Royal Highness the Princess helped me out of trouble, so I invited Her Royal Highness to my house for a small gathering. I will personally prepare some food to thank Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Princess Rongyang nodded.
"Uh-huh."
"She was badly bullied at the banquet today. If it weren't for this princess's help, she would have been kicked out."
The Queen Mother had not attended the banquet today and was unaware of these events. She immediately asked, "How could such a thing actually happen?"
Chen Hechuan also looked at Gu Jingchun, and then at Princess Rongyang.
"I'll give you the piece of material you've always wanted."
"real?"
Princess Rongyang jumped up happily.
"Well, tell me the names of all those who bullied her later."
Princess Rongyang nodded quickly and immediately recounted the events of that time with more exaggeration.
Of course, how could the petty-minded Chen Hechuan let this matter go like this? He quickly had someone find out the whole story of that day.
The woman in yellow never thought that she had already returned home and cried for a whole day, and thought that the matter was over.
Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince intervened in the matter again and directly demoted her father to Lingnan.
This made her very angry, but it was of no use.
On the other side, although the Situ family was not in any serious trouble, Situ Qinghe was left out for several hours when he went to discuss matters with Chen Hechuan.
This made him very confused.
After all, Chen Hechuan has always been upright in his work and would never do such a thing. Naturally, he would not think that it was because of his daughter that she offended his sweetheart.
After that day, Gu Jingchun brought Gu Jinxi into the palace.
To be precise, he entered the Eastern Palace.
Soon, the news that Shen Hechuan brought a woman into the East Palace spread throughout the palace.
After all, Chen Hechuan has never been interested in women since he was a child, and there are almost no women in the entire East Palace. Now he actually brought a woman back.
Moreover, this woman's identity is not ordinary. Not only does she have a child, but she was also Luo Ziqian's former fiancée.
Therefore, the rumor in the palace was that Gu Jingchun was not sent to the East Palace to be a female official. She was clearly an uneasy and seductive woman. Not only did she seduce Luo Ziqian, but she also seduced Chen Hechuan under the guise of a female official.
