After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Chapter 198 The Prince's Heart

On the way to the Imperial Garden, Gu Jin and Jiang Fengqi ran into Crown Prince Mu Zhen and the newlywed Crown Princess Xue Wei.

Gu Jin couldn't help but secretly sigh in her heart that the four of them were really destined to meet. The last time she and Jiang Fengqi entered the palace, they ran into these two people.

It's just that they were not married at that time, and Xue Wei seemed to be particularly affectionate towards the Crown Prince.

"I have met His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess."

Xue Wei let go of Mu Zhen's hand and said with a smile, "Please don't be polite, both of you."

Gu Jin then took a closer look at the Crown Princess in front of him. She had a face as white as a silver plate and watery almond eyes. Although she was not stunningly beautiful, she did have a pretty good appearance.

Xue's father was the Vice Minister of the Ministry of War. With Xue Wei's family background, she could have chosen any man in the capital for her marriage, but she chose the crown prince who was unlikely to reach adulthood.

But her face was rosy and her eyes were smiling, and it seemed that she was living a very comfortable life.

Anyway, marriage is like drinking water, only the person who drinks it knows whether it is hot or cold, so Gu Jin didn't want to say anything about it.

Mu Zhen set his sights on Gu Jin, and raised the corners of his slightly pale lips slightly, saying in a gentle voice, "Marquis Qingyun has made great contributions and was awarded the title of marquis, but because of my body, I have never been able to congratulate him."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Gu Jin bowed his head and replied respectfully. He did not feel any closeness to him because of his friendly face.

Mu Zhen didn't care, and still said with a smile: "Wei'er's younger brother Xue Zhan is also studying in the school of Madam Qingyun Hou. Madam, I will trouble you to take care of him in the future."

When Xue Wei saw that Mu Zhen still remembered these little things about her brother's studies, she was immediately moved, and a sweet smile appeared on the corners of her lips.

Gu Jin had some impression of Xue Zhan, mainly because he was very different from those second-generation rich kids who looked resentful and dissatisfied. He was humble and kind, and looked like a good boy who could study.

And his background check was indeed true; Xue Zhan had no bad record, not even any arguments with anyone.

"Mr. Xue is gentle and hardworking. There is nothing he needs my care for." Gu Jin said truthfully.

Mu Zhen turned his head and said softly to Xue Wei, "Don't always stay in the East Palace to accompany me in the future. Madam Qingyun's shop is doing very well. I am not in a good condition to go out, so you should go out and check on me."

Xue Wei knew that he just wanted her to go out and relax, and her heart was moved and sad. It would be great if His Highness was fine.

"Sister Gu, I will inevitably trouble you when I leave the palace someday."

Gu Jin smiled and said politely, "It's my honor that the Crown Princess is here."

Gu Jin and Jiang Fengqi found an excuse to leave. Xue Wei took Mu Zhen's arm and said with emotion: "Sister Gu is really amazing. She manages both the store and the school so well. If she were a man, she wouldn't be worse than Marquis Qingyun!"

Mu Zhen narrowed his eyes, and a vague smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "Yeah, it's true that he's no worse than Xie Ran."

Everyone thinks that Gu Jin married into a wealthy family, but if they knew Gu Jin's true identity, Xie Ran would really not be worthy of her.

Thinking of the small portrait that he coaxed Chen Anan to steal from the study in the Prince of Pingxi's Mansion, Mu Zhen smiled playfully.

The situation in the capital is becoming more and more interesting. I wonder how lively it will be when this secret is revealed!

"Weier, let's go back."

Xue Wei was puzzled, "Your Highness is not going to the banquet?"

"I'm a little tired and don't want to go over there." He had already met the person he wanted to meet, so there was no need for him to go to the table and attract attention.

It would be great if everyone would forget about him, the Crown Prince. He was very much looking forward to that day, and even more so to seeing shock and regret on their faces!
