Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

When Princess Xueying saw the storybook, her expression changed drastically, "Grandmother, where did you get this storybook?"

"I should be the one asking you, where did you get such a disastrous thing?" asked the Queen Mother.

Princess Xueying replied, "I bought them from passers-by when I was outside taking shelter from the rain. I only read them because I thought they were interesting."

"Interesting?" The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes, alert, "You actually find such a book interesting. It seems that you haven't discovered the harm in it. Do you still want to imitate it?"

From yesterday till now, Princess Xueying had been reprimanded several times and was already in a bad mood. The palace maids and female officials who usually surrounded her all disappeared, which aroused Princess Xueying's rebellious psychology.

"Grandmother, it's just a storybook, just to kill time." Princess Xueying didn't think she was wrong, nor did she think the storybook had much influence.

When the Empress Dowager heard this, she finally understood the seriousness of what the Queen said. Xueying actually thought that the contents of the storybook were no big deal.

"The woman in the storybook wanders between several men, treating them as playthings, enjoying the money and status that comes from playing with men, and even mixing up their bloodlines. Such shameless behavior, and you actually say it's nothing!"

Princess Xueying said stubbornly, "Men have three wives and four concubines, so why can women only marry one man? Why can't women have three husbands and four concubines?"

"You... do you know how rebellious your words are? Even if you are a royal daughter, you will be criticized for what you said." The Queen Mother was in a state of confusion, and her breathing gradually became rapid. "From now on, you will be confined to your room for a month and copy the "Woman's Virtue" a hundred times."

"Grandmother, you love me the most, how could you bear to punish me?" Princess Xueying was spoiled and arrogant. She didn't think she was wrong at all and felt that her elders didn't love her anymore.

The Empress Dowager almost choked up, "Come here, lock Princess Xueying in the palace. No one is allowed to come in or out without my permission."

The female official outside came in, pulled Princess Xueying out, and sent her back to the palace.

The Empress Dowager was so angry that she felt dizzy. She called the imperial physician to come and give her a few injections before she felt better.

When the emperor was not his biological son, she was able to climb to the position of empress dowager in the harem, and the thing she had the most was forbearance.

But today she was angered by her granddaughter, Princess Xueying!

After Princess Xueying returned, she was furious and asked someone to find out who took her book away.

The investigation led to the Queen, and she remembered that the reprimand she received yesterday was because of Gu Xiling and Zhou Jin.

So Princess Xueying did not dare to hate the Queen or the Empress Dowager, and instead transferred all her hatred to Gu Xiling.

If the people from the Changning Marquis' Mansion had not entered the palace, the Queen would not have remembered to search her things and naturally would not have known about the storybook, and the current situation would not have happened.

At this moment, Gu Xiling suddenly sneezed a few times, thinking that she had caught a cold because she had put too much ice in the bedroom last night.

She had no idea that a huge pot would fall from the sky, and the key point was that she didn't know where the pot came from.

Zhou Jin saw Gu Xiling sneezing and showed concern, "Madam, you were too cool last night, did you catch a cold?"

Gu Xiling shook her head, "I didn't catch a cold! Someone must be missing me!"

"Ah?" Zhou Jin was nervous when he heard this. He looked at Gu Xiling with his narrow and bright eyes. "Besides me, who else is thinking about you all the time?"

Gu Xiling heard this and smiled secretly, "There are many people who miss me, I won't tell you."

The more Gu Xiling said this, the more Zhou Jin became curious, and he was itching to ask, "Is this the master who taught you martial arts?"

"Huh?" Gu Xiling was shocked. "How could the prince guess that?"

"You know martial arts, and it's not low. Without someone to teach you, how can you be born with it?" Zhou Jin said proudly, "Since you are my master, I won't worry."

Gu Xiling chuckled and said, "There is a master and a senior brother!"

"This..." Zhou Jin was stunned, gritted his teeth secretly, "Anyway, you are my wife, it's enough for you to please me! My wife is dignified and upright, I can rest assured."

“Hahaha!” Gu Xiling laughed, her eyes moist. “I’m just teasing you! I only have one junior brother.”

Zhou Jin was obviously relieved when he heard this. "How old is your junior brother this year? We have been married for so long, and Master and Junior Brother haven't come. Where are they?"

Gu Xiling raised her eyebrows and smiled secretly, "My junior brothers are the same age as me, and they were all picked up by Master. They travel all over the world, and I don't know where they are. If they want to come back, they will come back eventually."

Zhou Jin was startled, and secretly compared them, "Ah? The same age! How do they look? How talented are they?"

Gu Xiling walked up to Zhou Jin and was about to speak when Zhou Jin hugged her and held her in his arms.

"My junior brother is handsome and talented, but he is not as good as my husband. Are you happy now?"

Zhou Jin smiled, and the vibration in his chest made Gu Xiling blush, "Happy, of course I'm happy, it proves that I am the best in my wife's heart."

Gu Xiling didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Men's damn desire to win was just that strong!

"I have a junior brother, but is there no woman who admires you?" Gu Xiling thought of Princess Xueying, and since they were talking about this, she asked curiously.

Zhou Jin was slightly startled when he heard this, and was quite proud. "I am a handsome and talented new Jinshi. I was once the Zhou Tanhua who saw all the flowers in Chang'an in one day. There are many people who admire me!"

"Ouch!" Gu Xiling pouted, "It seems like you are quite proud of yourself?"

Zhou Jin raised an eyebrow, "I'm not proud, I just want to prove that your husband is excellent!"

"My husband is so nice, why doesn't anyone express his feelings to him?" Gu Xiling asked.

When Zhou Jin heard this, he always felt that there was something sour in Gu Xiling's tone, but he felt very happy in his heart.

"Don't worry, my lady. There are many women who admire me, but most of them never express it to my face. Even if there were some who expressed their admiration, I would have rejected them because I was already engaged."

"A gentleman should do what he should do and not do what he shouldn't do. Since it's impossible to be with those women, don't give them too many wrong moves, which will hurt both them and yourself."

After hearing what Zhou Jin said, Gu Xiling originally wanted to mention Princess Xueying, but now she thinks it’s boring.

That was a humiliation to Zhou Jin's integrity and self-discipline.

"My husband is a gentleman!" Gu Xiling praised Zhou Jin at the right time, making Zhou Jin feel that it was right to do so and that she would continue to act with such moral standards in the future.

In this way, many flowers and plants outside can be blocked, which can save Gu Xiling a lot of worries.

"Of course!" Zhou Jin was pleased. Just as Gu Xiling thought, he should be more careful in the future and not let his wife be suspicious and overthinking.

"Madam, something bad has happened!" Just as the two were being affectionate with each other, Xiulan, who had gone out to buy storybooks today, came back in a hurry.
