C139

Gu Hua Jing stood there blankly for a long time, unable to come back to her senses.

It wasn't as if she didn't feel sad. If she were to wander around the palace by herself, the number of possibilities she would encounter would be innumerable.

Gu Hua Jing had long known from Li Song that dealing with nobles in the palace was a big risk.

But Gu Hua Jing had always been patient and careful in her response, because she knew that no one would help her.

Thus, when she found out that it was Feng Rong who saved her, in addition to her gratitude, there was also a contradiction in her heart.

If it wasn't for Feng Rong, how could she have met with such a situation?

The moment he let himself into the palace, he must have foreseen all of this, but he didn't tell himself anything.

Gu Hua Jing wasn't stupid. She just didn't want to complain, so what was the use of it? No matter how resentful her heart was, what could she do about it?

He still wanted to live under his hands.

Thus, Gu Hua Jing could only express her gratitude to him from head to toe. She thought that if there was a next time such a thing happened, then perhaps on account of her own cleverness, Feng Rong would come earlier to save her.

However, Feng Rong had just said that such a situation wouldn't occur again in the future …

He was someone who would never easily promise. Once he said it, he would definitely do it.

Why did he promise me such a thing?

Even if it were Feng Rong, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.

On the way back to the courtyard, Feng Rong's expression was cold. All the servants she met on the way all lowered their heads, not daring to act rashly.

Feng Rong was angry with him.

He clearly knew that his emotions were affected and that it was a bad thing, but he allowed himself to make such a promise.

If he wanted to protect Gu Hua Jing in the palace, he would have to reveal some of his strength.

For the sake of a woman's safety, was it worth it?

He thought about this question all the way. When he came back to his senses, he was already standing in front of the desk.

A drop of thick ink dripped down from the pen in his hand.

Feng Rong looked down at the paper in front of him and saw his own handwriting on it. Two big words, "Worth it".

"Hehehe …"

Within the study room, the sound of low laughter seemed to indicate that something had changed …

"Madam, His Highness sent this over to me, where do you think I should put it?"

Lei saw the smiling look on his face and directed his servants to bring in a black, white, yellow, and pear wood screen.

"I do not lack these …"

Even Gu Hua Jing was feeling helpless. Was Feng Rong suddenly rich?

It was still rare to see someone delivering things to him.

Although she did like it, it was easy for her! Is it easy to get something sealed?

Lei saw that the smile was still on his face, "Madam, please don't make things difficult for this little one, these are all His Highness' intentions, this little one is just following orders and acting according to them."

Lei knew that if he didn't accept it, he wouldn't leave.

Gu Hua Jing casually pointed at a spot, "Put it there."

Lei saw that his actions had been quickly arranged. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, he eagerly left.

In the evening, when Gu Hua Jing saw Feng Rong, she indistinctly mentioned this matter to him.

"I do not lack anything here. Your Highness, there is no need to act in such a manner. It is now a difficult time for the country to take the lead, so as to not let others gossip about me."

"Let them speak, I love my own wife. Do I have to look at the eyes of others?"

"…"

Gu Hua Jing felt like she was communicating with a hooligan. Can you not say such words out loud? There was still a servant here!

Feng Rong didn't feel anything out of the ordinary. Her long and narrow eyes were filled with affection as she said, "As long as Madam is happy, then I will be happy."

There was no way for them to communicate. Gu Hua Jing turned her head and touched her slightly hot cheeks.

Normally, he was the one who flirted with others. So, it was quite a novel feeling to be teased like this.

Since Feng Rong insisted on giving it to her, Gu Hua Jing had no choice but to give it to her.

If he saved up more, he would be able to use it in the future.

"I'm going out tomorrow, and I've made an appointment with big sister Fang to go to the temple."

Gu Hua Jing changed the topic, but Feng Rong didn't mind. She only nodded her head.

"It's a good thing that you're on good terms with the Fang family's young lady. Right now, there are many who want to marry Miss Fang. I wonder which family she'll end up marrying."

"Anyway, as long as it's not His Highness's place, it's fine."

Feng Rong narrowed her eyes as she spoke boldly, "Madam, are you afraid that I'll be distracted by someone else?"

"Oh, that's not it. I'm just worried about Sister Fang."

Gu Hua Jing also laughed, the craftiness in her eyes disappearing in a flash.

Her friendship with Fang Wanxin had been promoted to a whole new level after Gu Hua Jing visited the old master again and again.

He had originally thought that Fang Wanxin was a gentle and indifferent woman. However, after familiarizing with her, he realized that she was a girl with special thoughts.

"Jingjing!"

When Fang Wan Xin saw Gu Hua Jing's carriage, she became happy and directly got off the carriage to go to Gu Hua Jing's place.

Gu Hua Jing was also very happy. Even though she was going to the temple, she was happy to be with someone she could chat with. Even if she went to a brothel.

The two chatted excitedly for a while, causing Fang Wan Xin to frown.

"I went to the temple today because my mother wanted me to go. She said she wanted me to divinate my marriage. How could I know about this just by calculating?"

"Elder sister Wan Xin still needs to count? I heard that those who came to ask for marriage were about to step on the door's threshold until it's broken! "

"You only know how to laugh at me."

Fang Wan Xin rolled her eyes at Gu Hua Jing. "Grandpa is not satisfied with those. You also know that now that the court is in turmoil and the situation isn't clear, my marriage has become a big problem."

She lowered her head and smiled slightly, "As a young lady, it's not good for me to keep my mouth shut when it's a marriage matter. I just don't want to implicate the Fang family."

Gu Hua Jing was quite touched by this. It was just like back then, she would agree to marry Feng Rong for the Gu family.

The marriage of a Chinese woman had never had anything to do with their intentions, but rather, it had always been for the sake of their family.

Gu Hua Jing sighed, not knowing how to comfort him.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind.

Didn't the Old Master Fang seem to have some connection with the disguise? Then, if it was the Gu family, would the old tutor object?

His third brother, who looked like a fairy on the outside, had a sullen personality that seemed to be quite compatible with Fang Wanxin.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was not bad. Besides, the Gu family had the Fang family as their in-laws, so they could stand more stably in the future. Wasn't that great?

Gu Hua Jing immediately sat up straight, "Sister Wan Xin, please be my sister-in-law."

"Huh?"

It was as if Fang Wanxin was struck by lightning. After she reacted, her face immediately flushed red like a red fruit.

"What, what are you talking about?"

"I have a third brother named Gu Hua Ran. Elder sister should have heard of him, right? "His temperament is calm and detached, gentle and refined, and he also has a very handsome appearance. Truly, I am not boasting. My third brother also has some reputation when he is outside."

"Jingjing!"

"My family doesn't have any strict rules. Second sister in law is also a good person to get along with. Little sister-in-law …" It's just that I'm already married and we got along well. How nice! "

"…"

Fang Wanxin's lips trembled. How … how could she bring this up?

Gu Hua Jing understood her awkwardness, so she stretched out her hand and held onto Fang Wan Xin's.

"Elder sister Wan Xin, marriage is a woman's life and death affair. It is related to a lifetime's happiness. Do you really have to place all your hopes on the Bodhisattva? What if the Bodhisattva doesn't hear your prayers? "

"Look at me, what kind of life did you have before you left? Don't tell me that you don't want to think about it for yourself? "

"First of all, I can guarantee my third brother's character, and the Gu family's style is also positive. They won't have any bad wind or evil spirits, are you sure you're not willing?"

Gu Hua Jing said it one after another, causing Fang Wan Xin's heart to beat like thunder.

But after the shock, she also felt that Gu Hua Jing's words were very alluring.

The Gu family's reputation was well-known in the capital.

And... And...

Fang Wanxin had heard of Gu Hua Ran's name before …

That person was as handsome as a bamboo, and her entire body exuded a noble and pure aura. Could she really …?

Gu Hua Jing carefully observed Fang Wanxin's expression. After realizing that her face was deliberately blushing, she knew that there was something fishy going on!

"Aiya, Sister Wan Xin, what's there to be shy about? "Let me tell you …"

Gu Hua Jing had sold out her third brother and told him a lot of stories about Gu Hua Ran along the way, making Fang Wan Xin giggle.

After returning from the temple, Gu Hua Jing immediately had someone send a letter to her father, and then sat down and waited for the day to come when she would go to the Fang family.

However, what she didn't expect was that Feng Rong somehow found out about this.

"Fang Family and Gu family, how did the Madam come up with this idea?"

Gu Hua Jing was left dumbstruck, "How did Your Highness know?" "This matter … I haven't told anyone else."

"I naturally want to know everything about Madam's matters."

Gu Hua Jing trembled. These words were said too strangely, but he didn't say how he knew!

"Your Highness, do you feel that something is amiss?"

"Wu … Not really. The Fang family's old patriarch has been worrying about Lady Fang's marriage. The Gu family might be a good choice."

Then he didn't object?

Gu Hua Jing was relieved.

The more she knew that the appearance of Feng Rong was different, the more Gu Hua Jing was apprehensive. She always felt that there was nothing Feng Rong couldn't do.

"However, I originally had other plans for Ms Fang's marriage …"

Gu Hua Jing froze. Was it possible, or not?

Wrong...

What did he mean by having other plans? He wasn't a member of the Fang family, so what right did he have to plan Wan Xin's elder sister's marriage?!

"What does Your Highness mean … by this?"

Feng Rong's eyes showed a smile, her lips slightly raised, "According to Madam's thoughts, it's not impossible, but my plan has been disrupted, how does Madam plan to compensate me?"

"Compensation?"

Gu Hua Jing repeated in a daze. He still needed to compensate? This... What does it have to do with her?

"Yes, could it be that Madame has not thought of it? "That won't do."

What and what?

Gu Hua Jing felt that it was probably because she had just eaten too much, so her blood had all gathered in her stomach and her brain had become ischemic.

Otherwise, why was it that she couldn't understand what Feng Rong was saying at all?

Yes, he must have eaten too much …
