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

"Gu Xiling, I am the princess. You are so disrespectful to me. Aren't you afraid of being punished?" Princess Xueying was furious and spoke without thinking.

Gu Xiling lowered her head to hide the mockery in her eyes, and raised the corners of her mouth, "I dare not."

"Don't dare? I think you dare!" Princess Xueying said sternly, "Now kneel down and apologize, otherwise I will punish you right now."

Gu Xiling avoided the topic, not wanting to pamper Princess Xueying, nor being scared by her. She said to the female guards, "The princess' foot was severely sprained just now. If she is not treated in time, she may become lame in the future. Can you bear such a crime?"

The female guard's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly reminded, "Princess, let's go back to the palace as soon as possible."

As for any grudges, we will talk about it later.

Now the wife of the Marquis of Changning just doesn't want to give in, so even if the princess gives the order, they dare not act rashly.

This is the wife of the Crown Prince of the Marquis of Changning, not one of those powerless nobles.

"You..." Princess Xueying pointed at Gu Xiling, "I will make you regret it."

Before she could finish her words, Princess Xueying felt severe pain in her ankle and was carried into the carriage by the female guards.

Seeing that the annoying princess finally left, Gu Xiling sneered twice.

Regret?

She will give these two words to Princess Xueying.

Coming back, Gu Xiling asked, "Can the horse still pull the cart?"

The driver nodded and said, "Madam, it's OK. I was just frightened but not injured."

"That's good!" Gu Xiling got on the carriage and sat down.

The carriage started moving again and headed for the city.

Nanny Yuan looked worried, "Madam, are you okay?"

Gu Xiling shook her head, "I'm fine, but Princess Xueying is in trouble. It will take a hundred days for her broken bones to heal. She will probably have to stay in bed for at least a month."

Madam Yuan frowned, "It is said that the daughters of the royal family have royal dignity, but this Princess Xueying is different. She is unruly and willful, talking nonsense at the door, and she is not afraid of losing her royal demeanor."

Gu Xiling smiled and said, "Some people stand high and think they can do whatever they want, but they don't know that there is cause and effect in the world!"

Seeing that Second Aunt was not afraid, Gu Yunshu's pale face gradually regained color. "Second Aunt, Princess Xueying just asked you to kneel down and apologize, but you didn't. She will retaliate against you and make you regret it."

Gu Xiling smiled and said, "Based on the situation just now, if I kneel down and kowtow to apologize, it won't make peace, but will make things worse. Princess Xueying will only humiliate me more severely."

"If that's the case, why should I let myself be humiliated? Anyway, it's not my fault for what happened today. Even if it comes to His Majesty and the Queen, I'm right. The royal family is noble, but they also have to be reasonable."

Gu Yunshu was worried, "Second Aunt, Princess Xueying should go back first. What if she makes up a story and accuses you of deliberately riding your horse to hit her? If we tell the truth and the princess doesn't admit it, what should we do?"

Gu Xiling was calm and collected. "Yun Shu, what day is today?"

Gu Yunshu was stunned, thought for a moment, and then said, "Second aunt, today is the day when the Queen is going to visit Jinshan in autumn."

Gu Xiling chuckled, "On such an important day, Jin Linwei came and went without a trace, and his whereabouts were mysterious. How could he not come here? Princess Xueying is of noble status, how could he not protect her?"

"Just because you didn't see them doesn't mean they don't exist. Jinlinwei obeys His Majesty's orders, and today's events will be reported truthfully."

Gu Yunshu was shocked. "Second Aunt, is this possible? I... I have never heard of this before."

"You are still young, there are many things you haven't heard of!" Gu Xiling smiled, "It's nothing serious, don't make a fuss!"

In this matter itself, Princess Xueying is not in the right.

After His Majesty knew the truth, even though he felt sorry for Princess Xueying's injury, he could not blame the Changning Marquisate.

Seeing Second Auntie so calm and composed, Gu Yunshu was completely relieved, with envy in her eyes, "Second Auntie, you are amazing!"

Gu Xiling smiled, "But this kind of thing should be avoided if possible. A wise man never suffers a loss, let alone these impulsive actions and fighting. It's not worth it."

The carriage quickly entered the city, and Gu Xiling asked the driver to go to Jingyang Marquis's Mansion first to send Gu Yunshu back.

Qin had been waiting for a long time. When she saw her daughter getting off the carriage, she hurried over to greet her, "Thank you for your hard work today, second sister!"

Gu Xiling did not get off the carriage this time. "Sister-in-law, I have something else to do. I'll leave first. Sorry for the rudeness!"

Although Qin was a little surprised in her heart, she never showed it on her face, "Oh, you're welcome, sister!"

Watching the carriage leave, Gu Yunshu tugged at his mother's sleeve, "Mom, don't blame Second Aunt for being rude. Something big happened today!"

When Qin heard this, her face changed slightly, and she quickly covered her daughter's mouth, "Let's talk about it when we get back!"

At this moment, there were several servants at the door, listening with their ears perked up.

Gu Yunshu also remembered what her second aunt had told her. Her mother returned to the back house, and only the mother and daughter were left in the room.

Gu Yunshu told her mother everything that happened today and on the way.

Qin took a breath and said, "Then your second aunt is in trouble!"

Gu Yunshu replied: "I see that Second Aunt is not worried, so I think she has a plan to deal with it."

Qin thought for a moment and nodded, "But it's no wonder. Your second aunt is now the wife of the Crown Prince of Changning Marquis's Mansion. She is favored by His Majesty. How could he allow a savage princess to humiliate the family of a meritorious official?"

"Mother, no wonder you asked me to learn from Second Aunt!" Gu Yunshu's eyes were full of admiration for Gu Xiling. "Second Aunt's martial arts skills are very high today. She was able to carry me on her back and run on the mountain path."

Qin was slightly stunned when she heard this, "I knew your second aunt knew martial arts, but I didn't expect it to be so advanced!"

"It's extremely hard to master such a high level of martial arts, and you may not be able to endure it. But it's good to learn some kung fu to strengthen your body."

Gu Yunshu didn’t reject it like before and nodded, “Then I’ll learn it! When I encounter danger, I can run faster than others!”

"If it wasn't for Second Aunt, the one who got hurt today would not be Yun Qiniang, but me! Liang Ruyi is really too mean! Next time I see them, I have to be careful and hide away."

I have talked to my daughter about those things before, but she always thinks they are insignificant and doesn't take them to heart.

Now that I've gone out and seen the world, I've changed a lot.

"Your second aunt is right. You should stay at home and not go out recently." Qin was very satisfied. She would prepare a gift and have someone send it to the Marquis of Changning's Mansion.

Qin understood that if it was Gu Xirong who took her daughter out today, she might not be able to escape this disaster.

Through this incident, Qin felt grateful and in awe of Gu Xiling.

The carriage continued to move forward quickly, and Gu Xiling said directly to the driver: "Go to the palace gate!"

Sometimes, it is necessary to pretend.
