Chapter 677: Quickly Give Him a Red Packet

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Usually, Rong Zhan would only bring Rong Han over, and no woman would appear by his side, And this time, he had brought Gu Qingxue to the palace

banquet. Did that mean that he had already decided to marry Gu Qingxue?

The women’s eyes were filled with resentment as they looked at Gu Qingxue with jealousy.

“Fairy, let’s go. The banquet hasn’t started yet and everyone is still greeting each other in the Imperial garden. I’ll take you to see the empress dowager.” Rong Han held Gu Qingxue’ s hand tightly and raised his innocent little face, smiling at her.

Gu Qingxue nodded and walked forward with Rong Han.

Rong Zhan followed closely behind, and the three of them walked forward, attracting everyone’s attention wherever they went.

Rong Han led Gu Qingxue to the imperial garden.

The plum blossoms in the imperial garden were in full bloom, and upon entering, one could smell the refreshing fragrance of the plum blossoms. The garden was even more lively, with all the Imperial relatives, important officials, and women of their families gathered here.

The emperor had not yet arrived, but the focus of the garden had fallen on the empress dowager and the empress, Lady Yin.

“Han’er pays his respects to the empress dowager. Today is the first day of the new year, Han’er mishes the empress dowager good fortune.” Rong Han led Gu Qingxue to the empress dowager. As he spoke, he knelt down and kowtowed to the empress dowager.

Gu Qingxue could be excused, but since it was the first day of the New Year, she followed suit and bowed. Then, she stood to the side and looked at Gong Lingyu, who was next to the empress dowager.

If Gong Lingyu was not bound by etiquette, she would definitely greet Gu Qingxue as soon as she came up. However, she was bound by the rules, so she could only blink at Gu Qingxue as a response.

After Gu Qingxue used the same method to respond to Gong Lingyu, she quickly retracted her gaze and looked at the empress dowager.

The empress dowager was wearing a dark red dress with peonies embroidered on it. She was in a good mood, and when she saw Rong Han say something auspicious, she smiled even more happily, “Haha, good, Han’er’s mouth is still so sweet. Bi Zhu, hurry up and give him a red packet, a bigger one.”

“Yes.” Nanny Bi Zhu said as she took out a thick red packet from her sleeve and handed it to Rong Han.

“Many thanks to the empress dowager. Greetings, Your Majesty.” Rong Han continued to pay her respects to the empress.

The empress naturally could not be stingy, so she also gave Rong Han a big red packet. Then, she cast her gaze on Gu Qingxue. “Doctor Gu also came today? Speaking of which, I have not seen Doctor Gu for a long time. 1 heard that Doctor Gu had just presented medicine to His Majesty two days ago and His Majesty was extremely happy. He even said that after the new year, he would reward Doctor Gu. However, 1 didn’t expect that the young prince would bring Doctor Gu into the palace today.”

Gu Qingxue understood the empress’ hidden meaning.

What the empress meant was that she was brought into the palace by Rong Han and not Rong Zhan.

After all, Rong Zhan had never been close to women. Unless it was for his son, why would he come to the palace banquet with other women?

The empress’ words were what everyone was thinking, and it also made Gu Qingxue’s situation awkward.

Gu Qingxue could tell that the empress was targeting her. She glanced in the empress’ direction, and it was not hard to guess why the empress was targeting her.

Previously, the cheating incident in the Royal Academy had caused an uproar. The emperor and the empress dowager had both punished the thirteenth princess. The empress, who had always loved her daughter, could not be indifferent.

Gu Qingxue pretended to not notice the empress’s hostility, but she laughed coldly in her heart..
