First Lady of the Crown Prince

 Chapter 930 Slap in the face (1st update)

 A person's sanity does not collapse overnight.

To be honest, what Gu Jinyu did today was not wise. Even if she made Gu Jiao make a fool of herself in public, it would not be of any real benefit to her.

 It is a behavior that harms others but does not benefit oneself.

But after Gu Jiao returned, Gu Jinyu suffered too many dimension-reducing blows from Gu Jiao, and her sanity was eroded to the last bit.

She didn't care what she could gain. As long as she could make Gu Jiao the laughing stock of the capital, she would accept it even if it cost her the enemy one thousand and her own eight hundred.

 It was not the first day that Gu Jiao's appearance became so ugly.

 But in the past, she was just a mediocre little medical girl, and no one had any requirements for her appearance.

Now that she has climbed a high branch to marry the young marquis who is the most popular in Zhaodu, some people will naturally think that her appearance does not match her.

This marriage is basically a flower stuck in cow dung!

  Men are all good-looking.

His wife has humiliated him so much in public. The young Marquis must have left a knot in his heart, and he will not dare to travel with her again in the future, right?

 Gu Jinyu thought gloatingly, and looked at Gu Jiao and the others with a hint of ridicule unconsciously.

She thought Gu Jiao must be angry, but the fact was just the opposite. Gu Jiao looked calm.

 “Sister, aren’t you angry?” she asked.

Gu Jiao glanced at her and said: "I'm not angry, I just think you are very pathetic. There is so much light in the world, but you only see darkness."

Gu Jinyu’s pupils narrowed.

 “Let’s go.” Gu Jiao said to Xiao Heng.

 Gu Jiao is actually a little girl who loves beauty, but she doesn’t have weird thoughts just because she loves beauty.

She doesn’t feel inferior because of her ugliness, nor is she arrogant because of her beauty. She doesn’t care what others think of her, and she doesn’t mind tearing off her veil just for a few words of provocation.

Xiao Heng didn't care what others thought of him, and they laughed at him for marrying an ugly wife, but he didn't want Gu Jiao to be wronged, not even in the slightest.

 “Wait a moment.” He said to Gu Jiao.

Then he looked at Gu Jinyu and said in a deep voice: "You said that my wife feels ashamed in front of you. Then I ask you, what did you do when my wife saved lives and healed the wounded? What did you do when my wife invented the bellows? My wife When we were fighting on the battlefield, guarding the borders, treating plagues, and protecting the country and the people! Where were you, Gu Jinyu!"

He glanced at the onlookers who were watching the excitement and said, "My wife has made great military exploits in Yuegu City and was personally named Princess Protector by Your Majesty! None of you have a stable life that is not for the sake of my wife and the soldiers of the three armies. It was earned with blood! What right do you have to find fault with her appearance! I, Xiao Heng, am lucky that my wife is willing to marry me! I have been waiting for this marriage for four years! I asked the Queen Mother for the wedding date. , and begged the emperor’s uncle to finally make the decision! My wife is the most beautiful woman in the world, and there is no need to prove it to anyone! When it comes to feeling ashamed of yourself, it’s only right for all of you to feel ashamed of yourself in front of her!”

His words made everyone feel ashamed.

 As a woman, she has done things that even her sons cannot do, yet they are criticizing her appearance.

Gu Jinyu's heart was filled with turmoil.

She originally planned to disgrace Gu Jiao, but she didn't expect that the young Marquis would confess to Gu Jiao in public, clearing up all the unfavorable speculations about Gu Jiao during the wedding.

This marriage was requested by him...

 It’s his three lifetime blessings…

It's him.

He wanted to marry her. He waited for four years just to get married to her in his true identity...

Why?

 Why did Gu Jiao meet such a good man?

Xiao Heng sighed: "Madam, appearance is not important anyway. If they want to see it, just let them see it."

 Everyone: Why don’t you prove your promise?

Gu Jiao is not a person who likes to wear a veil. The last time she wore it was requested by Yao family, and this time it was to surprise An Guogong.

Yu Ya'er got off the carriage. She looked at Gu Jinyu coldly, came to Gu Jiao's side, and hummed: "Some people want to humiliate themselves, Miss, please help her!"

Chunliu rolled his eyes: "Oh, I don't know who is the one who is humiliating himself! No matter how much you brag about it, you will still be ugly—"

 Gu Jiao's veil was blown open by the wind.

Chunliu looked at that indescribable and peerless face, and for a moment no sound came out of his throat.

how so?

Evidently she saw the eldest lady’s face with her own eyes the last time she was in the jewelry shop, and it didn’t look like this.

Where is that dazzling red birthmark?

 Why has it disappeared?

Gu Jinyu was no less surprised than Gu Jiao. Chunliu had only seen Gu Jiao once, while Gu Jinyu had seen her up close so many times.

 She even drew a portrait of Gu Jiao herself.

 “No…impossible…impossible…”

She looked at this flawless face in disbelief, unable to accept Gu Jiao's transformation from an ugly girl to a fairy beauty.

 She has lost everything to Gu Jiao, the only thing she is proud of is her appearance.

 But now, even the appearance has been severely compared!

 It is said that Bidu praised her.

Before Gu Jiao took off her veil, her face could still be seen, but after the veil was gone, her face instantly turned pale.

 All the light in the world seemed to be focused on Gu Jiao's face.

 Gu Jinyu withered completely!

 "No...no...that's not the case...you are not my sister...you are not! You are not..."

"That's enough! Just stop saying a few words to me!" Mr. Quan couldn't bear it anymore. People around him were pointing fingers. He married such a woman who couldn't understand what he was doing. He would be too embarrassed to go out in the future!

He gritted his teeth and glared at Gu Jinyu, then raised his hands and said to Xiao Heng, "Brother-in-law..."

Xiao Heng said lightly: "Don't call me brother-in-law, I don't know him well."

 After saying that, he took Gu Jiao's hand and entered the Duke's Mansion.

The rest of the people were immersed in the amazement brought by Gu Jiao's appearance and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

 Who is it that spreads the **** rumor that the young marquis married an ugly wife?

Are you deliberately trying to ruin the reputation of the young marquis and his wife?

If he really sees someone, he is blind! If he hasn't seen anyone and still spreads this word, he is bad! Stupid and bad!

“That’s her! It was her last time too!”

“Yes, yes, yes, she came to make trouble in front of the Duke’s Mansion. She was so weird! She was scolded miserably by the steward of the Duke’s Mansion!”

 “The old Marquis ignored her! He also told her not to call her grandfather!”

“Why did the Marquis of Changping marry such a woman?”

 There were bursts of instructions for Gu Jinyu from the crowd.

Mr. Quan felt embarrassed that he had been thrown into his grandma's house. He wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl into it: "It's all your fault!"

 After saying that, there was no trace of pity for Gu Jinyu in his eyes. He gave Gu Jinyu one last look in disgust, rolled up his sleeves, got on the carriage and left!

Chunliu hurriedly chased after her: "Uncle! Uncle! The lady hasn't gotten on the carriage yet!"

On the day she returned home, Gu Jinyu was left on the street by her newlywed husband.

 What was truly desperate was that her last trace of superiority in front of Gu Jiao was gone.

 She lost completely.

 But she actually didn’t lose either.

 Because, Gu Jiao has never competed with her.

 …

Steward Zheng had been in the backyard preparing Duke An's new wheelchair. When he heard the news and went to the front to show off his skills, the battle was already over.

"oops!"

 He is choked!

 Feel like I missed 100 million!

 An Guogong taught Xuanyuan Qi how to play chess in the backyard.

 Lochen was chased by Taoist Master Qingfeng, and could not take his father to visit the capital. Xuanyuan Qi could only stay at home with Duke An Guo.

 “You can take this step here…”

Just as Duke An Guo finished speaking, the chess piece in Xuanyuan Qi's hand fell onto the chessboard with a thud.

"How do you..." He looked at Xuanyuan Qi, and then followed Xuanyuan Qi's horrified eyes towards the entrance of the garden.

The girl was wearing a blue shirt and long skirt, with a slender figure. She and Xiao Heng walked towards each other holding handbags, like a pair of beautiful people walking under the Sansheng Stone.

They are so matched, as if they were meant for each other in this life.

Of course, the focus of Xuanyuan Qi and An Guogong is not here, but on Gu Jiao's face.

 No veil, no birthmark.

 She has regained her beauty.

Gu Jiao came to An Guogong, leaned down and put her face in front of him, smiling like a child playing tricks: "Are you surprised, are you surprised?"

 Gong An Guo raised his hand and touched her cheek: "Surprise, what a surprise."

Xuanyuan Qi looked at the childish Gu Jiao with a hint of emotion in his eyes.

More than her appearance, the change in her temperament surprised him more.

 Brother, if you were still alive, you would be very happy to see her like she is now, right?

 …

 An Guogong and Xuanyuan Qi didn't know about Shougong Sha, but now that they knew about it, they simply didn't know what to say.

This oolong... is too big!

Xuanyuan Qi secretly put the plan to beat the abbot on the agenda.

 Xiao Heng replaced An Guogong and continued to teach Xuanyuan Qi how to play chess.

The father and daughter went to the yard to open gifts. Xiao Heng carefully selected every gift he received as a homecoming gift. In order to express the importance he attached to his son-in-law, Duke An Guo wanted to see each gift one by one.

 After looking at it, he had another big box brought in.

 “What is this?” Gu Jiao asked.

Duke An Guo sat in a wheelchair, smiled and said, "The Imperial Master sent someone to deliver it. He said it was the wedding gift I promised you before."

Gu Jiao immediately remembered: "Ah, the weapons as tribute from the Jin State! Such a big box, are they all for me?"

Duke An Guo was amused by her eagerness: "There are two more boxes."

“Here it comes! Here it comes!” Manager Zheng directed his men to bring in two other large boxes of weapons and open the lids.

 Gu Jiao carefully selected.

Jin State has spent a lot of money this time, and the tributes are all good things.

 Suddenly, Gu Jiao's eyes fell on a long and narrow peach wood box.

"Miss, do you want to see this?" Manager Zheng walked over smartly, opened the mahogany box, and presented his hands in front of Gu Jiao.

Inside is a gleaming black iron sword with peacock feathers.

When Gu Jiao saw it, she felt a strange feeling in her heart.

She took the sword in her hand, looked at it carefully, and pulled the long sword out of the scabbard. The cold light shone into her eyes, and suddenly a picture flashed in her mind.

 “Is that it?”

 In that dream of the battle, she saw her own end—die by this sword.

It’s the last day of the month, so don’t waste your monthly pass.
