Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Chapter 224 The Crown Princess Arrives

"Han Desheng, you don't have to follow me to Xuanzheng Hall for the morning court tomorrow. Go to Yufu Palace with the Crown Princess." Xiao Jingheng ordered.

"Yes, I obey your command." Han Desheng quickly responded.

After bathing, Xiao Jingheng returned to the inner room first. The Crown Princess still hadn't come. He was used to this. In his previous life, he was the one who waited for the Crown Princess.

He leaned against the bedpost, wondering what he should do to get an evaluation of "improvement".

This is very important for a man.

There were footsteps outside the door. Xiao Jingheng straightened himself up and looked over. The Crown Princess's cheeks were flushed. He felt like a cat was tickling him in his heart.

For men, love affairs are like delicious food. If you haven't eaten it, you won't think about it anymore. But because you know how wonderful it tastes, you will always want to eat it.

Gu Qinghe was sitting in front of the dressing table combing her hair. She saw Xiao Jingheng had put down the book in his hand and seemed to be about to get up and come over to stop her from pulling her hair. "Your Highness, you have an early court tomorrow. You've been exhausted today. You can rest first."

Upon hearing this, Jamel Xiao stopped and immediately said, "I'm not tired, not at all."

"Then you should read a book first." Gu Qinghe said.

Xiao Jingheng also guessed that the Crown Princess was probably still frightened by the fact that he had pulled her hair yesterday. He sat back, coughed twice, and picked up the book.

Just as he turned the page, Gu Qinghe also walked to the edge of the couch, went straight in, pulled the quilt over him, and prepared to go to sleep.

Unexpectedly, another person came over her and whispered in her ear: "The Crown Princess said that people change every day. Look at me today."

Then, small and fragmented kisses began to fall.

Han Desheng was keeping watch outside, and his partner today was Yingchun again. She was staring at the sky at the moment, maybe because she was embarrassed?

To be honest, Han Desheng was the one who was embarrassed, because he had been serving the prince since he was four years old. The prince had been a model of self-discipline and restoration of propriety since he was young, a unique example among the royal children of the same generation. Anyone who saw him would have to say that he was worthy of being the prince.

Therefore, the prince will definitely have a good rest at the court tomorrow morning. This is what he just said to Yingchun. Unexpectedly, he was slapped in the face now...

From the very beginning, he failed to establish his prestige as the Chief Eunuch of the Eastern Palace in front of the two maids of the Crown Princess.

After sighing for a long time, he finally heard the prince's call, "Han Desheng, hot water——"

"Yes." Han Desheng responded quickly, flicking his whisk and walking inside with the eunuch carrying water.

Yingchun also followed in and helped the Crown Princess bathe.

When they returned to the inner room, the bed had been made. The couple lay down, with Xiao Jingheng lying on the outside. When he heard the person's breathing become steady, he tightened his long arms and pulled the person to his chest.

The next morning, when Gu Qinghe was awake, Han Desheng was whispering outside, helping the prince put on his court robes.

She didn't want to get up, as she still had to button up Jamel Xiao's shirt, so she simply didn't open her eyes.

Yingchun and Wangchun heard the noise in the inner room and hurried in, only to see that the bed curtains were still down.

"Don't make any noise. Your Crown Princess was very tired last night. Let her sleep a little longer." After Xiao Jingheng finished speaking, he chuckled twice and took Han Desheng out.

"Farewell, His Royal Highness." Yingchun and Wangchun bowed and said with a smile. Then they looked at each other and laughed out loud, "Look, the Crown Prince really loves the Crown Princess."

Han Desheng was left in the courtyard by the Crown Prince, waiting to enter the palace with the Crown Princess to meet Concubine Li. Now, after listening to what Yingchun and Wangchun said, he deeply agreed.

Gu Qinghe sat up and called two maids over.

Wangchun said with a smile, "Crown Princess, when we came in this morning, we saw that you were still asleep and wanted to call you to get up, but the Crown Prince stopped us and said that you should sleep more."

Gu Qinghe heard this and said "hmm" softly, "I understand."

After washing her face, Gu Qinghe sat in front of the dressing table. Yingchun brought a purple dress, and Wangchun was busy picking out jewelry from the dressing table.

Gu Qinghe reached out and pointed at a phoenix hairpin, "This one will do."

"Your Highness has good taste. This perfectly matches your clothes and makeup today. It's very impressive." Wangchun said as he inserted the phoenix hairpin into her bun.

"Princess Consort, Steward Han is waiting outside. He said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has instructed him to accompany you to the palace to meet Concubine Li." Yingchun said.

Gu Qinghe nodded when she heard this. Xiao Jingheng's action reminded her that she really needed an obedient eunuch by her side so that it would be more convenient for her to do things.

As for a candidate, she has no idea in mind at the moment, because she thinks the eunuch who is useful is still a normal man and has not entered the palace yet.

"Later, I will also need to find a suitable eunuch to run errands. You two should also keep an eye out to see if there is a suitable candidate." Gu Qinghe said.

"Yes." Yingchun replied.

"If the Crown Princess wants to be obedient and have her own ideas, I think Zhang Wu is a good choice." Wang Chun said casually.

"Zhang Wu is not suitable. I was thinking of becoming a matchmaker for you when the time comes." Gu Qinghe said with a smile.

"Crown Princess, I don't like him. You are really matching us up at random." As Wangchun spoke, her face actually turned red, which was really strange.

While chatting and laughing, all the preparations for going out were completed, and the Crown Princess took Han Desheng and Yingchun out. Zhang Wen had already checked the carriage early and was waiting at the door.

"Your subordinate greets the Crown Princess." Zhang Wen clasped his fists.

Gu Qinghe smiled faintly, "Thank you for your help today."

"It's my duty," Zhang Wen replied. He waited until the Crown Princess boarded the carriage before waving his hand and saying, "Let's go."

Yufu Palace

Concubine Li got up early today and asked Ping'er to comb her hair into a dignified-looking style. She looked at herself in the mirror from side to side and always felt that something was missing.

"Your Majesty, you are already very beautiful." Ping'er said with a smile.

Concubine Li tutted softly, "It's still not enough. After all, this is our first meeting, and this impression is very important. Bring out the purple jade hairpin that the emperor gave me."

Nowadays, people, especially those in the palace, respect purple. In the harem, only the empress and the imperial concubines can wear purple clothes. For others, one or two pieces of purple jewelry are considered the supreme favor.

Ping'er heard this and advised, "Madam, you are wearing a green dress today. Purple doesn't seem to go with it."

"Do as I say. Looking good is not the primary purpose of dressing up today. The most important thing is to look tough." Concubine Li waved her hand impatiently.

Ping'er agreed, but before she found the hairpin, she heard the eunuch at the door shouting, "The Crown Princess has arrived—"
