When Princess Pingning saw this, she stopped and turned to look behind her.
Hearing the displeasure in Princess Pingning's words, the guard didn't know how to explain it, so he could only make a similar gesture of invitation to Arina, "My dearest concubine, please come in together."
Hearing this, Princess Pingning thought she had heard wrongly, but Arina quickly followed her footsteps and raised her lips in front of her.
"It seems that this time it is thanks to Princess Pingning."
After the words fell, Arina took the lead and walked forward, leaving Princess Pingning looking at the scene in front of her. She only felt angry in her heart, but she didn't know why things turned out like this.
Before Arina could enter Princess Zhen's courtyard, Princess Pingning held her breath and went straight into Princess Zhen's room. However, when she entered, she saw that Princess Zhen was lying on the bed, facing her. It's hard to hide the haggardness.
"Cousin, what's wrong with you?"
Princess Pingning never expected that what the guard said just now turned out to be true. It turned out that Princess Zhen was really not feeling well.
Concubine Zhen felt her head hurt even more when she heard Princess Pingning's startled voice. She waved her hand and asked her to sit aside.
If it weren't for her, Princess Zhen wouldn't have to see Arina today, so at this moment, Princess Zhen was still a little angry.
Before Princess Pingning could continue to speak, Arina also came to Princess Zhen at this moment, and then bowed slightly to her and saluted.
"I have met the Dowager Empress."
Compared to Ping Ning who rushed in directly, Princess Zhen had to admit that Arina knew etiquette better, but then she thought of what Gu Beichen said in front of the emperor today, which gave her an even worse headache.
"Get up."
Princess Zhen held on and waved to Arzina, asking the two of them to sit down next to her.
"Today is not the first time I've come to visit you, but maybe I didn't make it clear to you last time in front of your Majesty, so I'm coming again today."
Concubine Zhen naturally knew what Arina said, but she just closed her eyes and did not intend to answer.
"Cousin, it's hard to find anyone else in the house now. You..."
But Princess Pingning felt that Arina was trying to create some trouble with her words, so she quickly interrupted her words.
Concubine Zhen looked at Princess Pingning and felt a headache, "I already know the purpose of the princess's visit."
As soon as these words came out, neither of them spoke, wanting to hear what Princess Zhen wanted to say.
"But this kind of thing depends on Zitan's wishes."
Princess Zhen did not say anything, but instead blamed everything on Gu Beichen, even though she had not considered Gu Beichen's thoughts at all.
"Thank you, Princess Dowager."
Arina naturally understood what Concubine Zhen meant, and she stood up and bowed to Concubine Zhen.
But the scene in front of her made Princess Pingning confused. Concubine Zhen just said a word, so why was it Arina's turn to thank Concubine Zhen?
"If the princess has nothing else to do, she can leave first."
Before Princess Pingning could realize what this meant, Princess Zhen actually ordered Arina to be kicked out. This move made her smile again.
"Your Majesty, you must take care of yourself."
Arina did not refuse, and after a few more instructions, she got up and walked out.
It wasn't until Arina's figure disappeared that Princess Pingning turned her attention to Princess Zhen.
"Cousin, do you think the news coming out of the palace is true? Cousin..."
Listening to what Princess Pingning said, Princess Zhen sighed unconsciously, "Pingning, if you really enter the palace in the future, you must never let someone like Arina come in again. "
"So, cousin, have you agreed to let my cousin marry me?" Princess Pingning's eyes were full of excitement, and she took Princess Zhen's hand.
"It all depends on Zitan."
Princess Zhen still said the same words. This time Ping Ning seemed to have reacted, "If cousin lets go, cousin, you won't stop me."
"good."
Seeing the expectation in Ping Ning's eyes, Princess Zhen nodded and accepted the matter. She knew that in this situation, no matter which lady she found, she would probably not be able to catch Gu Beichen's eyes. It's better to let them do the hard work.
Princess Pingning did not expect that Princess Zhen would agree, so she immediately got up and prepared to go to Gu Beichen's courtyard.
"etc."
Princess Zhen quickly stopped the person, and looking at Ping Ning's empty-handed appearance, she unconsciously asked, "Are you planning to go like this?"
In the end, Princess Zhen really didn't know what to say, so she could only ask the maid to bring some of Gu Beichen's favorite pastries and stuff them into Princess Pingning's hands before letting her go out.
If Princess Pingning continues to stay here, her headache will become more serious.
When Princess Pingning appeared in front of Gu Beichen, there was still a bit of blush on her face, and then she handed over the cake in her hand.
"Cousin, I haven't seen you for a long time. Didn't anything interesting happen when you came back from the border?"
At this time, Princess Pingning seemed to have gained a little more brains, and knew how to pick something that Gu Beichen was interested in, so as not to make the situation embarrassing.
It's a pity that Gu Beichen's attention is not here at the moment, and when faced with Princess Pingning's words, he just replied to her lightly.
"If nothing happens, go to the concubine's courtyard."
Hearing this, Princess Pingning suddenly stood up and said, "I just came from my cousin's place. Cousin, you don't know that Arina from Tuoba Kingdom actually bullied me!"
Speaking of Princess Zhen, Princess Pingning rolled her eyes and immediately had an idea. She deliberately spoke like this, and then looked at the person in front of her with a pitiful look.
"Who are you talking about?"
As expected, Princess Pingning's words successfully made Gu Beichen's eyes fall on her.
"Who else could it be, but Princess Arina?"
Princess Pingning thought her words had touched Gu Beichen's heart, so she quickly told the story of what had just happened in Princess Zhen's courtyard.
After the words fell, Princess Pingning did not forget to look around, "Fortunately she is not familiar with the palace, otherwise she would have to pretend to be here today..."
Before Princess Pingning could finish her words, Gu Beichen stood up and walked out.
Seeing this, Pingning immediately stood up and took two steps outside, "Cousin, what are you doing!"
But Gu Beichen didn't pay attention to the noise coming from behind. He felt that Arina should go to find An Ruowan.
…
In the princess's mansion, An Ruowan was still thinking about what happened today. The guard outside the door hurried in and said, "Princess, someone just sent an invitation."
