She could more or less guess what Gu Zexiang was thinking. If everything went well, Gu Zexiang wouldn't have to endure another seven or eight years. Perhaps in about five years, she would be able to release her and even choose a good marriage for her personally.
She didn't say these words to Gu Zexiang now, and it depends on how Gu Zexiang performs in the future.
"Princess, the coming-of-age dress you chose is from a pattern sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Gu Zexiang bowed to Shen Xihe and left.
Saying this to Shen Xihe was not to curry favor, but to tell Shen Xihe that she was not the Crown Prince's person.
Although Shen Xihe and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seemed to have a close relationship, there were rumors in the palace that the Queen Mother and His Majesty favored Shen Xihe as the Crown Princess. However, nothing is certain and things can change. Even if it is certain, the couple may not be free of concerns.
Shen Xihe was absent-minded for a moment, then shook his head and laughed.
In fact, Shen Xihe had this guess after the pattern was unfolded, but she really liked it, and there was no need to throw away her own preferences just because it might be related to Xiao Huayong.
She chose it, which can only be said that Xiao Huayong is capable and has grasped her preferences. There is nothing she dare not admit.
"I said it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince understands the princess the best. If he hadn't put in the effort, how could he understand her so well? I'm afraid we won't have the chance to show our loyalty in the future." Zi Yu sighed, shaking her head.
Shen Xihe is the most tolerant towards her. Strangely enough, Shen Xihe doesn't like stupid people. Ziyu belongs to this category, but Shen Xihe likes her cheerfulness and liveliness. She smiles every day, as if she has no worries.
I put it next to me and look at it every day. I find it pleasing to the eye and my mood improves a lot.
"The person who works hard to please you may not be the one who treats you well." Shen Xihe is always calm and composed. "He may also be the one who wants to kill you. The person who treats you well right now may not remain the same forever. If you don't wake up, once he changes, you will be doomed."
Zi Yu shrank her neck and dared not say anything more.
People's hearts are fickle and no one can guarantee anything. They still need to be more alert in the future and not be tempted by the Crown Prince's sugar-coated bullets.
The case of Yu Zao came to a conclusion the next day. It was confirmed that Yu Zao was an impersonator. The real Yu Zao had been dead for more than 20 years. Once the news was verified, Yu Zao committed suicide in the county magistrate's prison.
Therefore, there was a heated discussion in the court about how to deal with Yu Zao. The Yu family was safe, but the Yu family had Yu Zao's wife, children and grandchildren. These were all married to Yu Zao after he returned from studying. Logically, they were Yu Zao's relatives.
But his wife's relatives also included people in the court. In order to avoid being implicated, they burst into tears at the meeting and accused the Yu family of a fraudulent marriage. If the Yu family had not failed to verify the authenticity of their son, how could a daughter of an official family marry a thief
This makes sense. If Yu Zao's wife had suffered enough, it would be inhumane to kill her too.
But given that his crime is so serious, we can't just let him die and be done with it, that would be too light a punishment.
The two sides quarreled fiercely, giving Emperor Youning a headache. Xiao Huayong, who had finally come to the court meeting, started coughing violently because of their quarrel.
He coughed a series of times, making the hall quiet. People on both sides immediately stopped talking. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince fainted from fright, where would Wang Zheng still be standing? Wang Zheng could come back by shamelessly putting on a show, but it was not certain that the same method would work for them.
