Mo Ziqing hugged An Zhining and coaxed her distressedly, "If others know that you had this baby before you were married, your reputation will be ruined. How can you marry me?"
"I know, brother Ziqing." An Zhining nestled in Mo Ziqing's arms with satisfaction, "Only you and I know about such a big thing, and I will never let anyone else know."
"That's good, that's good."
An Ruowan felt cold in her heart as she listened to their conversation. Mo Ziqing was determined not to marry An Zhining as his first wife.
All this was just to coax An Zhining. When she was a month old, she was afraid of being noticed by others, so she could only marry her in a hurry and become his concubine.
What a good plan. An Ruowan lowered her eyes and felt even colder in her heart.
After a while, there was a sound of kissing from behind the rockery, which made people blush and heartbeat.
An Ruowan frowned and was about to turn around and leave, but someone held her arm. She almost screamed and her lips were covered!
The familiar scent of sandalwood invaded the tip of An Ruowan's nose, immediately calming An Ruowan down.
Gu Beichen?
She raised her eyes to look at Gu Beichen, who was facing the clear moon in front of her, blinked her bright eyes, pointed at her mouth, and motioned for him to let go.
Gu Beichen let go of his hand, and An Ruowan subconsciously took a step back and accidentally kicked a stone!
The pebbles rolled to the edge of the pond and fell into the pond!
"who?!"
The two people who were fighting fiercely over there heard the voices suddenly separate, and Mo Ziqing immediately raised his voice and asked nervously.
An Ruowan's eyes widened and she didn't know how to react. Gu Beichen put his arm around her waist, and in the blink of an eye the two of them reached the pond!
Mo Ziqing adjusted his clothes and moved from behind the rockery to in front of the rockery. Not far away, he saw Gu Beichen holding An Ruowan's hand and throwing stones into the pond. His expression was startled!
An Ruowan pretended to turn around casually, frowned after her eyes fell on him, "Why are you here?"
Seeing the two of them, Mo Ziqing felt guilty for a moment, even though the distance between the pond and the rockery was not very close.
But Mo Ziqing was subconsciously afraid of them and heard the conversation he had just had with An Zhining.
After Mo Ziqing came to his senses, he immediately saluted Gu Beichen. "Wei Chen has met the prince."
Gu Beichen glanced at him, hummed lightly, took An Ruowan's hand, "Let's go back."
"Your Majesty!"
Mo Ziqing suddenly shouted and stepped forward, "I didn't know it was the prince in front of me just now. I offended the prince. Please don't blame me."
An Ruowan glanced at him, "What are you doing sneakily hiding behind the rockery? You're not doing something shameful, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense in front of the prince! When did I do something shameful?"
Mo Ziqing's guilty voice rose up, and he wanted to step forward and cover An Ruowan's mouth!
An Ruowan smiled brightly at Mo Ziqing, "Then I have to ask you, how could I know about the shameful things you did."
"An Ruowan!! You!"
Gu Beichen protected An Ruowan and looked at Mo Ziqing with dark eyes, "Is this your attitude towards the future Princess Rong?"
Frightened by Gu Beichen's eyes, Mo Ziqing immediately came to his senses and lowered his head, "Wei Chen doesn't dare!"
An Ruowan snorted lightly, turned to look at Gu Beichen and said with a smile, "Let's go, Your Majesty."
It wasn't until the two people's voices gradually faded away that Mo Ziqing moved his stiff head, slowly raised it, and stared hard in the direction An Ruowan left.
Only then did An Zhining dare to come out from behind the rockery.
"Brother Ziqing, I just heard my sister's voice. Did she find us?"
Mo Ziqing turned around, the gloomy expression on his face had disappeared, "It's okay, she was with the prince, she probably just came here and didn't notice us."
Hearing that An Ruowan and Gu Beichen were together, a strange look flashed across An Zhining's eyes.
She stepped forward and took Mo Ziqing's arm, acting as coquettishly as before, "Ziqing, please stay with me for a while longer."
Mo Ziqing pulled away from his emotions just now and softened his tone, "If the people in front of us don't see us for a long time, I'm afraid there will be a lot of rumors. Zhining, dear, I have wronged you during this period. After this banquet, you can go back. Wait for my news."
Looking at Mo Ziqing's face, An Zhining nodded and said obediently: "Then I'll wait for you to pick me up in the Prime Minister's Mansion."
An Ruowan and Gu Beichen returned to the Imperial Garden, and the Hundred Flowers Banquet also dispersed one after another.
Gu Beichen was still riding a carriage and wanted to take An Ruowan back to the princess' mansion first.
There were all Gu Beichen's people in the carriage, and An Ruowan didn't speak until he spoke.
"Now that there is one more person, there may be trouble on the way to the border."
"trouble?"
Gu Beichen stared at An Ruowan from the window, "You mean Gu Qishen?"
An Ruowan nodded, "He now has Taishi Luo behind him, and his mother-in-law has a high and powerful position. The most serious dispute between the party and factions and the prince is none other than the second prince."
"Now he wants to go to the border with you. His intentions are obvious. Isn't he in trouble?"
The corners of Gu Beichen's lips curved in an indifferent arc, "If he is considered a trouble, then it won't be a trouble at all."
Hearing Gu Beichen's words, An Ruowan didn't understand, "Why?"
"The second prince's gang members should not be underestimated. Grand Master Luo has won over the ministers in the court and is devoted to Gu Qishen. His family has a strong hand. It seems that the situation is a sure win."
An Ruowan nodded and looked at Gu Beichen, "That's true."
This was indeed the case in the last life. Gu Beichen's legs were not healed, and the prince lost his great help, and there was an endless fight between him and the second prince.
No one expected that the second prince would be the one to ascend the throne in the end!
With this in mind, An Ruowan couldn't tell Gu Beichen about the past, "The second prince does have such ability. If we really let him go, there will be endless troubles in the future."
"It's not him who has the ability, it's the people behind him."
Gu Beichen held his forehead with his fingers and said slowly: "He is just a piece of trash with a lusty appearance and a weak heart. He is treated as a puppet on strings."
An Ruowan opened her eyes slightly, as if she didn't expect that Gu Qishen would turn into a waste in Gu Beichen's mouth.
Seeing that An Ruowan seemed a little disbelieving, Gu Beichen didn't bother to explain, "You will understand on the way to the border."
At this time the carriage stopped.
The coachman said to the inside of the carriage: "My lord and princess, the princess's palace has arrived."
An Ruowan stood up and said goodbye to Gu Beichen.
Gu Beichen turned to look outside the carriage and saw An Ruowan entering the princess's mansion. He then ordered in a cold voice, "Go around East Street and go to Linglongfang."
"It's the prince."
As soon as An Ruowan returned to the house, the servant in the house immediately came forward nervously and said, "Princess, your brother is here and is waiting for you in the front hall!"
