Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation   Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Rong Zhan, who had been sipping on his tea, saw Gu Qingxue’s helpless expression and his voice turned bitter. “He’s not married even though he’s over 25 years old. Is that something one shouldn’t do? ‘

Gu Qingxue could hear the hidden bitterness in a certain someone’s tone. She turned to look at him and saw Rong Zhan looking at her with a frown.

Gu Qingxue’s heart skipped a beat. It was only then that she realized she had said the wrong thing.

This person in front of her also had a sun but was still unmarried even though he was in his twenties!

“Your Royal Highness, you just think it’s important to find a suitable person. It’s different from my cousin’s situation. My cousin is too busy and can’t take care of it.” Gu Qingxue hurriedly corrected herself.

Rong Zhan wasn’t satisfied, but he snorted lightly with an indifferent expression. “l truly believe that quality is better than quantity, so no matter what, I must marry the woman 1 like.”

When Rong Zhan mentioned the woman he liked, he did not forget to look at Gu Qingxue deeply, making her feel as if she had been locked in place. The blush on her face deepened, and even her heart could not help but beat faster. She quickly lowered her head to hide the emotions that flashed through her eyes.

“Speaking of which, we’ve been out for so many days, I wonder how the situation of the little ones at home is.” Rong Zhan’s eyes softened at the mention of the little ones at home.

Gu Qingxue’s eyes also became extremely gentle when she mentioned the little ones. “Don’t worry, Your Royal Highness. Those little ones have always been well-behaved and sensible. I think they will be fine.”

Rong Zhan naturally knew that nothing would happen to those little ones, but that was not the main point. The main point was that as long as they mentioned those little ones, a strong sense of longing would rise uncontrollably in their hearts, and it was completely uncontrollable.

“After we obtain the Gu King, both the Qi family’s matter and the poison in my master’s body will be easily resolved. At that time, we will be able to return.” Although Gu Qingxue said this, her eyes could nit hide the anticipation in them.

She just could not help but think about it. She just wanted to hurry back to her little ones.

“The Qi family’s matter hasn’t been resolved vet, so it’s not time to relax. If

you are tired, go and rest first. My people will be responsible for inquiring about the situation of your first uncle’s family.” As Rong Zhan spoke, he had already stood up and reached out his hand to Gu Qingxue. He said softly, “Let’s go, I will send you back to your room to rest.”

Gu Qingxue looked at the hand in front of her and shyly lowered her head. She said with a serious expression, “Your Royal Highness, I can walk on my own.”

Rong Zhan raised his eyebrows and did not give her any chance to struggle or reject. He grabbed her hand and pulled her up from her seat, then strode out of the door.

With Rong Zhan holding her hand, Gu Qingxue’s heart skipped a beat. In the end, she did not resist and walked out obediently.

At the same time, in the imperial palace…

The four little ones held hands as they entered the thirteenth princess’ bedroom.

Ever since she returned from the hunting grounds, the thirteenth princess had been complaining that she was sick and had not come to school.

The school ended early today, and the four little ones were really worried about the thirteenth princess’ safety, so they rushed over to see her.

The four little ones were led into the thirteenth princess’s bedroom by the palace maid. From a distance, they could see the thirteenth princess’s back facing them. She was lying on the bed in a deep sleep. She looked very weak and did not move at all..
