Chapter 158 Starry Sky and Galaxy
"I'm afraid it's just for bluffing!"
Upon hearing this, several people nodded in agreement and looked at each other. The meaning was naturally self-evident.
At this time, a young eunuch hurriedly ran to Gu Jingchun.
It instantly caught the attention of these female protagonists.
The young eunuch seemed to say something respectfully to Gu Jingchun, and Gu Jingchun followed him away.
In the eyes of everyone, this took on a few more meanings.
"Where did she go?"
"That little eunuch looks very familiar, he seems to be from the East Palace."
When everyone heard this, they immediately remembered the previous bride kidnapping incident.
"What do you think the prince wants her to do?"
"Hmph, what else can I do?"
"I guess I made some mistake!"
"Do you think the prince would be interested in an orphan with a child?"
"That's right."
Everyone nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
Today's banquet is said to be a flower-viewing banquet, but in this cold winter, there are not many flowers to appreciate.
In fact, the Queen Mother used the name of this banquet to give the sons and daughters of dignitaries a chance to meet each other.
All those present here are women who are about to get married, and they are just waiting for a suitable man.
And the prince has always been their dream marriage partner.
However, over the years, the prince has never been interested in women, so they have no chance to get close to him.
Now that he saw that Gu Jingchun was actually called by the prince, he was naturally full of vigilance.
Several people looked at each other, and finally a woman in yellow clothes snorted coldly.
"Don't worry, even if the prince gets married, it won't be her turn as a widow, as she has Miss Situ."
After hearing this, everyone looked at Situ Mingji.
Long before, everyone was saying that Situ Mingji would be the future Crown Princess, but for such a long time, there has been no movement.
It was not until now that His Majesty inadvertently mentioned this matter again that the Situ family woke up.
Last time, Situ Mingji almost lost himself because of everyone's admiration, but now he has become much calmer.
Facing everyone's gaze, she remained calm and was not affected at all.
However, the hand hidden in the sleeve also clenched.
Early this morning, her father took her to the study alone and explained the matter to her in detail, saying that it was the emperor's intention to make her the Crown Princess.
I specifically asked her what she meant in secret.
Situ Mingji was naturally delighted.
Seeing that Gu Jingchun was actually called by the prince, she just glanced at it and didn't take it to heart.
She is just an ordinary widow. Now that she has lost the support of her mother's family, what kind of trouble can she cause?
And at this time in the East Palace.
Gu Jingchun was led by the young eunuch to the gate of a magnificent courtyard.
Gu Jingchun didn't want to come here.
Her actions at the banquet were too obvious, and she didn't want to become the target of public criticism.
But the little eunuch said.
"His Royal Highness has already instructed that if you don't go, he will come to fetch you himself. By then, things will be much more complicated than they are now."
When Gu Jingchun heard this, he felt overwhelmed and didn't care about anything else. He could only follow the eunuch.
She slowly pushed open the gate.
But unexpectedly, as soon as I opened it, I saw a yard full of flowers.
They are colorful and extremely beautiful, and their varieties are even more beautiful than the flowers at today's banquet.
Especially the largest few snowflakes.
It is like a waterfall and a sea of flowers, extremely eye-catching.
In such a cold season, being able to see a yard full of flowers is something that money alone cannot achieve.
Environment, temperature and careful care are all essential.
This shows how much Chen Hechuan cares about it.
Gu Jingchun walked slowly into the yard, which seemed as if she was in a sea of flowers, extremely beautiful.
She looked around the yard, and finally, she followed the path paved with flower petals and arrived in front of one of the halls.
A bunch of snowflakes was stuck on the door of the main hall.
Gu Jingchun curled his lips, slowly pushed open the door of the palace, and found another beautiful scene inside.
It was clearly daytime, but the entire hall was in darkness.
The moment she opened the door, candles lit up one after another like stars.
The ground was paved with silver foil, which trembled slightly as she opened the door, as if the Milky Way had fallen to the earth.
And Chen Hechuan stood on the other side of the "Milky Way".
He was wearing a white robe embroidered with silver patterns, holding a jade flute in his hand, smiling, and looking at her intently.
Gu Jingchun's attention was also attracted by him. She slowly moved forward and the palace door behind her closed.
Gu Jingchun has never been able to resist Shen Hechuan's appearance.
Back then, when they were in the inn, their first time was caused by Gu Jingchun drugging them.
However, every subsequent time, Shen Hechuan did it on purpose.
Every time, Shen Hechuan would make various actions in front of her, such as smiling, touching casually, or whispering low voices in her ears, seducing her from time to time.
But every time she couldn't resist the temptation, she would fall into his mouth again like a lamb to be slaughtered.
Just like now.
She looked at the noble and handsome Chen Hechuan, and walked slowly towards him, stepping on the silver coins all over the ground.
The hem of her skirt brushed past the glazed palace lanterns on both sides, and light and shadow flowed between her eyebrows.
And Shen Hechuan just stared at her.
Then, he slowly raised his head and placed the jade flute in his hand across his lips. Immediately, elegant tunes flowed out from his lips.
The flute sounds melodious and sweet.
Gu Jingchun couldn't help but stand still in the middle, and suddenly saw fireflies flying out of his sleeves.
Specks of green light formed a butterfly formation in the darkness, and finally transformed into a few words.
"Happy birthday, Qingqing."
Gu Jingchun paused, his eyes felt sore, and then he remembered.
Today is her birthday.
It was her birthday when she was Liu Qingqing.
Unexpectedly, Shen Hechuan still remembered it.
Since his rebirth, Gu Jingchun has had several names, several identities, and several birthdays.
But she never knew when her real birthday was.
She had long forgotten her birthday when she was Liu Qingqing.
The song ends.
Chen Hechuan slowly walked in front of Gu Jingchun and stopped.
Fireflies were flying around them.
Gu Jingchun looked up at Shen Hechuan.
Chen Hechuan lowered his eyes slightly, and his low and gentle words fell into her ears.
"Happy birthday, Qingqing."
Gu Jingchun nodded, feeling as if honey was seeping out of her heart, eroding her sanity bit by bit.
But Chen Hechuan continued, "Gu Jingchun, tell me the truth, do you prefer the flowers I gave you or the ones Luo Ziqian gave you?"
Gu Jingchun was moved: ...
She suddenly wanted to leave, what was going on?
Seeing Gu Jingchun's expression change slightly, Shen Hechuan stopped joking with her and stepped forward to hold her in his arms.
