When they learned that this year's flower hunter would be Princess Shang, everyone was talking about it.
Some people said that the emperor was wary of the Gu family, fearing that the Gu family would be disrespectful because they were both powerful and wealthy, so they ordered Princess Gu Jingshang to end Gu Jing's career.
Some people regret that such a talented person as Gu Jing was unable to serve the court, and in the end he had to be an idle prince-in-law, wasting his talent.
There is also a rumor among the people that Gu Jing fell in love with Princess Mingzhu at first sight and was willing to give up her official career and asked to marry the princess. She even made up a scene of Gu Jing asking for a decree in the imperial study.
For a time, the girls were moved by Gu Jing's affection and told their families that they wanted to marry a son like Gu Jing.
Some of the scholars felt sorry for him, and some scolded him, thinking that a talent like Gu Jing should have served the imperial court.
No matter how the outside world discusses it, the two parties involved ignore it.
Lin Sui is being detained in the palace today, learning post-marriage matters and housekeeping skills from the tutor sent by the queen. After all, after getting married, Lin Sui will move to the princess mansion. When the time comes, she He must personally manage the entire princess mansion.
Lin Sui didn't need to worry about the wedding dress. The queen had already asked the best embroiderer in the palace to embroider it. When the time came, she would only need to embroider a symbolic stitch on the hijab.
The queen was busy with Lin Sui's dowry.
As for the Gu family, Gu Jing goes to the yard of Gu's father and Gu's mother every day, following Gu's mother to arrange wedding arrangements together.
Gu's mother was worried about the betrothal gift every day, so she was relieved to have Gu Jing help her.
Because the emperor had already issued an imperial edict, many steps were omitted from the Three Books and Six Rites.
But just nacai, naji, and nazheng took two months.
Gu's mother was so busy that she could finally take a breath after receiving the tax, and then she could slowly and carefully prepare for the wedding.
Lin Sui had been detained in the palace for two months. After receiving the conscription, she was ready to make a move.
She first went to find the emperor. When the emperor heard her words, he knew that she wanted to go out in the palace to have an outing with Gu Jing. He immediately looked unhappy and rejected her with a wave of his hand.
Then she went to the queen's palace, dangled her sleeves and acted coquettishly.
"Mother, I haven't left the palace for two months, and I'm feeling bored. Now it's spring, and all the flowers are blooming, so I want to go out and have an outing~"
It's already May now, so it's still a good time for an outing, but this is just right, there are fewer people.
The queen glanced at her and said.
"Do you simply want to go out for an outing, or do you want to go out for an outing with Gu Er?"
"Oh, Queen Mother~" Lin Sui's little intention was revealed, and she said coquettishly with a blushing face.
"Okay, I'll go tell your father." The queen said helplessly.
"Hehe, thank you, Queen Mother. Queen Mother is the best, and my son likes Queen Mother the most!" Lin Sui kept saying nice things.
"You little naughty boy, your father didn't agree, so he asked me to come forward." The Queen poked Lin Sui's forehead.
The queen went to the royal study with the tonic soup, and when she came back, she asked Lin Sui to find the prince the next day, and the prince would take her for an outing.
Lin Sui asked Eleven to deliver a letter to Gu Jing that night.
That night, when Gu Jing was preparing to rest, he felt something was wrong with the air flow. He looked at the window, and sure enough, the next second, a letter was nailed to the window with an arrow.
Gu Jing pulled out the arrow, opened the envelope, and after reading it carefully, a look of joy appeared on her face. Then she walked aside, opened a small box, and carefully put the envelope in.
The second day.
Gu Jing got up early, stood in front of the wardrobe, and carefully selected clothes.
Thinking about the hairpin he gave to Lin Sui, based on his understanding of his wife, it was no surprise that Lin Sui would wear that hairpin, so Gu Jing took a blue dress and even the jade crown that bound her hair mentally chose green. of.
When Yuan Le knocked on the door, Gu Jing was already ready to go.
"Master, why did you get up so early today?" Yuan Le looked at the neatly dressed Gu Jing in surprise.
"We have an appointment today." Gu Jing replied in a good mood, crossing Yuan Le and heading towards Gu's father and mother's yard.
Little Gu Yu is six years old this year, but her father and mother Gu love her very much, so when Gu Huai and Gu Jing were at her age, they had already lived in a courtyard by themselves, but little Gu Yu was afraid of sleeping alone, so she still She lives in the same courtyard with her parents.
When Gu Jing arrived at Gu's father and Gu's mother's yard, little Gu Yu was still sleeping soundly on the bed.
Gu Jing mercilessly took her sleeping sister out of the bed.
Little Gu Yu was woken up, her mouth was flat, and she was about to cry when she heard her second brother say.
"I'll take you out to play today, buy you cakes to eat, and have sister Suisui whom you miss so much."
Little Gu Yu stopped crying immediately, opened her big sleepy eyes, and said in the voice of a baby who just woke up.
"Really, Yuyu wants to go!"
The little guy fluttered off Gu Jing and walked towards the maid proactively. Although he was not very skilled, he still finished washing himself.
Gu Jing held the "freshly baked" little Gu Yu, just in time to have breakfast with her father and mother.
Mother Gu looked at her son who suddenly appeared and said in surprise.
"Jing'er came here so early. Is there something wrong?"
"Well, I have an appointment with the princess today, so I will take Yuyu with me for an outing." Gu Jing said with a happy face.
"Let's go on an outing with the princess! Quick, Nanny Chen, go and prepare some snacks and food for the outing." Gu's mother said excitedly.
"No need, I've asked Yuan Kang to prepare." Gu Jing saw Nanny Chen getting ready to go out and quickly interrupted.
"Then Nanny Chen will go and have a look, in case Yuan Yasuo is not fully prepared."
After breakfast, the two set off.
Today’s outing was to the most scenic place on the outskirts of Beijing.
As early as yesterday, Lin Sui took Xichun and the four of them to match the clothes, jewelry, and makeup they would wear the next day.
So when I got up on the second day, I was quickly ready.
After Lin Sui greeted the queen, she went to the East Palace to find the prince, and had breakfast by the way.
The Crown Princess had returned to the palace long ago. The Prince thought that he might not have taken the Crown Princess out of the palace for a long time. This outing was just the time to take the Crown Princess out to relax. The Crown Princess was worried about the issue of heirs every day, so this trip was convenient. Plus the class princess.
Gu Mansion was closer to the suburbs, so Gu Jing and his party arrived at the outing first.
It was already May, and it was no longer the best time for an outing, so only Gu Jing and her group were there at the moment.
Gu Jing was instructing people to place the things they brought.
As soon as little Gu Yu got out of the carriage, she started playing around. The maid and the nanny were guarding her carefully.
