Shocked! The salty concubine was spoiled by the cold prince

Chapter 120 Let’s Go Dig Wild Vegetables

Gu Fuying lowered her head in shame. She was indeed too arrogant at the beginning, and now it was karma.

"Aunt Gu, it's my fault. I apologize."

She pursed her lips and her voice became much softer.

Gu Jiaorong didn't expect that she would apologize so readily.

"Miss Gu, I didn't bring up the past to embarrass you."

The corners of her lips were slightly raised, and her eyes were gentle.

If they just wanted to embarrass Gu Fuying, she wouldn't have needed to remind them that day. She could have just watched from the sidelines.

Gu Fuying raised her eyes and looked at Gu Jiaorong in confusion.

If that's the case, then why does she bring up the past?

"It seems Miss Gu hasn't seen the current situation clearly. The Crown Prince didn't fall in love with you at first sight, but with General Gu's daughter. And this meeting was a carefully planned one. If you were just Gu Fuying, even if you met the Crown Prince a thousand times, there would be no love. He doesn't love you, he loves power and himself. If you want to break the situation, you must also stop loving him and focus on what benefits you can bring to him. As long as there are enough benefits, he will offer the position of Crown Princess, but it is clear that General Gu is not enough."

Gu Jiaorong sighed and pointed it out directly.

After all, Gu Fuying couldn't see this clearly, otherwise he wouldn't have come to her.

When Gu Fuying heard this, he found it a bit absurd.

"You said His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't like me?"

She looked at Gu Jiaorong, tears welled up in her eyes and a sense of sadness swept over her.

"How is this possible? He promised me that and even brought me to see the Queen. If he didn't have any feelings for me, why would he..."

Seeing her like this, Gu Jiaorong couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course it's because of your father, General Gu Sidao. He holds military power. If you can get his support, your Highness the Crown Prince's position will be more stable."

If Gu Fuying had any political acumen, he would have understood the reason.

Obviously she didn't and didn't understand.

"But how can feelings be fake? When he looks at me, he looks at me differently than he does at others."

Gu Fuying's face was pale and he stood there shakily, looking quite pitiful.

Unfortunately, there was only Gu Jiaorong in front of her, and Gu Jiaorong was used to seeing the love-brained girls in the palace, and she had long been cold-hearted and cold-mouthed.

"I told you everything, because of your father. If your father values a dog, then he's deeply affectionate even if it's just a dog."

Although it sounds a bit harsh, this is the truth.

"Miss Gu, I've made my words clear. Believe it or not is up to you. Even if you don't marry the prince in the end, you must agree to my three conditions and you can't go back on your word."

Not only Crown Prince Pei Yunjia was concerned about Gu Sidao's military power, but Gu Jiaorong was also concerned about it.

The court was in turmoil. Although she was a woman in a secluded house, she was Pei Xu's favorite concubine and was pregnant with Pei Xu's child. I wonder how many people were hoping that she would die.

If the Gu family could secretly help her, she would definitely feel more at ease.

"I remember."

Gu Fuying nodded, tears in her eyes.

"But is it true that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I are not destined to be together?"

This was the first time she fell in love, and also the first time she looked forward to waiting for someone.

Gu Jiaorong probably doesn't understand that feeling.

"You can force the continuation of the relationship by exchanging your father for it."

Gu Jiaorong spoke calmly, as if she really didn't care about the prince and Gu Sidao joining forces.

"But I must remind you: the palace gates are as deep as the sea. If you want His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to coax you like he does now in the future, I'm afraid you can only do it in your dreams."

Gu Fuying was devastated and fell into the chair behind him.

"Is there nothing real about the friendship we had before?"

If it weren't for the military power in Gu Sidao's hands, Gu Jiaorong really didn't want to let go of her love brain.

"What's the point of dwelling on this? Relationships between people are inherently complex. It's impossible for one person to just give and take. Besides, he's the crown prince. He's been the center of attention since he was a child. Even your father had to bow down to him. Even if he can bow down now, can he do so forever?"

Gu Jiaorong's voice was lazy and her expression was indifferent.

"There's a saying that goes, 'Nothing happens without profit.' He's bowing down now because of your father's military power, not for you, Gu Fuying. I advise you to be more open-minded. After all, your father probably has no intention of sending you to the palace. If you insist on marrying the Crown Prince, then send your father to the Crown Prince as a visiting card first."

Gu Fuying naturally did not want to sacrifice her father, and was somewhat unwilling to do so.

A girl's first love is always unforgettable, especially since Pei Yunjia had promised her so many vows.

Even though it cannot be realized one by one now, "he said that it's not that he doesn't want to, but he has no choice."

Gu Fuying's tears finally fell.

"If you believed that, you wouldn't have come to me."

Gu Jiaorong did not soften her heart because of her tears, but told the truth directly.

"You already suspect him, but you can't convince yourself, so you need a villain, and that villain is me."

Gu Jiaorong didn't mind her little trick, because she was also thinking of using Gu Fuying anyway.

"Miss Gu, now that I've become the villain, you should at least show some appreciation. Agree to my three conditions, and at least give me a token of your loyalty. Otherwise, what if you deny your promise later?"

Gu Jiaorong doesn't believe in keeping promises. She has waited until today just for this moment.

Gu Fuying was already feeling sad, but she didn't expect that she would be so impatient to ask for the token. For a moment, she didn't know whether she should shed tears.

"It's okay, you can cry as much as you want. Crying won't prevent you from getting your things."

Gu Jiaorong was very considerate and waved her hand to let her continue crying.

After hearing this, Gu Fuying couldn't cry anymore.

"My father gave me this jade pendant when I was one hundred days old. I've worn it since I was a child. Everyone in the General's Mansion recognizes it. If you need anything, just bring the jade pendant to me. I'll definitely help you in any way I can."

Gu Fuying had no other token of love at the moment, so he had to give the jade pendant that he had worn since childhood to Gu Jiaorong.

Shaoyao took it with both hands and held it in front of Gu Jiaorong.

Gu Jiaorong only took a glance and nodded, letting Shaoyao put it away.

Now that she is pregnant, she will not easily touch anything that Chu Fenghua has not seen before.

"Okay, I'll take this jade pendant. If Miss Gu needs to see me again, just come."

Gu Jiaorong smiled slightly. Although it was tiring to resolve the psychological problems of love-sickness, the rewards were also considerable, wasn't it?

Gu Fuying bit her lip and nodded, but she was still depressed.

"I can't help but love him, but I can't sacrifice my father either. How can I forget him?"

Gu Fuying has made up her mind not to think about the prince anymore, but she can't get over this emotional pain easily.

"Go dig some wild vegetables. After you're done, go home and have the servants blanch them for you. Eat them for seven days. While you eat them, think about your life as you marry the prince. Your life will be even harder than digging wild vegetables. If you still can't forget him..."

When Gu Jiaorong said this, a hint of sympathy appeared in her eyes.

That is truly an innate love brain body.
