Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess

However, what they didn't know was that the queen had sent secret guards to follow the eldest princess, so their plans were all ruined by the queen.

Baili Xin sent a message to Prince Ding'an, "Brother Lanxi, mother wants to marry me to Prince Jin. Brother Lanxi, Xin'er is waiting for you to marry me."

Prince Lan met Gongsun Xihua every day. Gongsun Xihua rejected him impatiently, "Prince Lan, I am not worthy of you." Then she turned and left. Prince Lan felt very upset watching her disappearing figure.

After the morning court session the next day, the emperor kept Prince Lan and asked, "Prince Lan, what do you think of marrying Gongsun Yuechan to you?" Prince Lan was shocked and asked in surprise, "Father, I like Gongsun Xihua." The emperor was furious and said, "Gongsun Yuechan is good, it's settled, let's choose an auspicious day to get married."

After Prince Lan stepped out of the palace, he went to find the Imperial Concubine, but saw Gongsun Xihua and Prince Jin arguing with each other, and Prince Lan became furious.

"Isn't Miss Gongsun supposed to keep people at a distance? Why is she so frivolous? Puzzling others in public." Prince Lan said with a look of disgust.

"Your servant greets King Lan." Gongsun Xihua said while bowing.

"Brother, Hua'er is not that kind of person," Prince Jin explained.

Prince Jin wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Prince Lan.

"Royal brother, don't be fooled by her appearance. This woman is very scheming. I have shown my goodwill to her many times, but she has always been dismissive. Now she is entangled with you, and it is obvious that she is trying to seduce you." Prince Lan said coldly.

"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. Miss Gongsun and I just met by chance and chatted for a few words." Prince Jin hurriedly explained.

"Hmph, accidental? It seems to me that you have been planning this for a long time." Prince Lan was relentless.

Gongsun Xihua secretly groaned inwardly when she saw this. She had originally intended to avoid Prince Lan, but she had no idea that this would lead to such a misunderstanding.

"Your Highness Prince Lan, it is true that I and Prince Jin just met by chance. I hope Your Highness can see clearly." Gongsun Xihua said with her head down.

Prince Lan didn't believe it. He thought it was all Gongsun Xihua's conspiracy.

"I will never let you succeed, Gongsun Xihua, just wait and see!" King Lan left angrily after saying these harsh words.

Prince Jin looked at Prince Lan's departing back and shook his head helplessly.

"He's becoming more and more rude. I guess I have to find an opportunity to have a good talk with my brother." Prince Jin said to himself.

Gongsun Xihua also left angrily. She knew very well that King Lan had already developed a prejudice against her and it would be futile to defend herself.

On the other hand, when the Queen learned that the Emperor wanted to marry Gongsun Yuechan to Prince Lan, she came up with a plan. She decided to plan an accident at the wedding of Prince Lan and Gongsun Yuechan, so that Prince Lan would lose his position as Crown Prince.

So the queen began to make secret plans, arrange people, and wait for the opportunity.

Gongsun Xihua was very depressed after returning home. She knew that there was no possibility between her and Prince Jin, but she couldn't help feeling sad. Just as she was sitting alone in her room feeling sad, the housekeeper sent by Gongsun Li came to the door and told her that Gongsun Li wanted to see her and asked her to go to the study.

Gongsun Xihua calmed down and went to the study. She gently pushed open the door and saw Gongsun Li sitting at the desk, looking at the letter in his hand with a serious expression.

"Greetings, father." Gongsun Xihua bowed.

Gongsun Li raised his head, glanced at Gongsun Xihua, then put down the letter in his hand and said, "Xihua, I just received news that the emperor has betrothed Yuechan to Prince Lan."

"What? Yuechan? Prince Lan?" Gongsun Xihua was so surprised that she almost cried out. She didn't expect things to develop to this point.

"Yes, this is an order issued by the emperor himself, and it cannot be changed." Gongsun Li sighed, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

Gongsun Xihua's eyes widened in disbelief, her body shaking uncontrollably. She stood there blankly, as if struck by lightning, her mind went blank, and for a moment she was unable to accept this cruel fact.

"Prince Lan has been harassing my daughter. He is not a good match!" Gongsun Xihua bit her lip, tears welled up in her eyes, and said in a trembling voice. How could she accept that her beloved sister was forced to marry someone she didn't like?

However, her father's words were like a knife, deeply hurting her heart: "The imperial order is difficult to disobey. Yuechan is also willing." Gongsun Xihua was stunned. She looked at her father in disbelief, her eyes full of pain and disappointment.

"Is Yuechan willing? Is she sincere?" Gongsun Xihua murmured to herself, her heart full of doubts and confusion. She knew Yuechan didn't like Prince Lan, but why did she agree to this marriage? Was it really just because the emperor's order was hard to disobey?

At this time, her father slowly walked to her side, patted her shoulder gently, and said in a firm tone: "Xihua, you and Yuechan are both my good daughters." Gongsun Xihua raised her head, looked at her father's kind face, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

She understood her father's difficulties and Yuechan's situation. But she still couldn't accept such an ending. The pain and loss in her heart made her speechless. Gongsun Xihua turned away silently, and finally couldn't help but burst into tears.

When the imperial concubine learned that Gongsun Xihua had the fate of a phoenix but looked down upon her son, she was furious. She clenched her fists and showed an angry expression on her face: "It's just the fate of a phoenix! Doesn't the Gongsun family have two daughters?"

Her eyes flashed with jealousy and dissatisfaction, and she thought to herself: "Since Gongsun Xihua is ungrateful, I will find another daughter to see if she is willing to be my daughter-in-law." So she decided to send someone to investigate the other daughter of the Gongsun family, looking for possible opportunities.

Later, she learned that the emperor had arranged a marriage between Prince Lan and Gongsun Yuechan. The imperial concubine immediately summoned Gongsun Yuechan to test her opinion.

Gongsun Yuechan greeted the Imperial Concubine respectfully. The Imperial Concubine smiled, took her hand and asked her opinion on marriage.

Gongsun Yuechan lowered her head and shyly said that she would follow her parents' arrangements. The imperial concubine was secretly happy, thinking that Gongsun Yuechan was easier to control than her sister, and immediately hinted that she hoped she could become her daughter-in-law.

Gongsun Yuechan was slightly stunned. She understood the Imperial Concubine's intention, but she already had someone she liked in her heart. However, facing the Imperial Concubine's power, she could only choose to remain silent.

After sending Gongsun Yuechan away, the imperial concubine smiled triumphantly. She was determined to make Gongsun Yuechan her daughter-in-law in order to consolidate her and her son's status.

At the same time, Gongsun Xihua also learned of the Imperial Concubine's actions. She was worried that her sister would be hurt, so she decided to protect Gongsun Yuechan. The two sisters each faced a difficult choice, and the gears of fate began to turn quietly.

Gongsun Xihua finally found her sister Gongsun Yuechan. She held her sister's hand tightly, her eyes full of worry and reluctance: "Yuechan, do you really want to marry Prince Lan?"

Gongsun Yuechan looked at her sister, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart, but she didn't want to make her sister worry, so she forced a smile and said, "Sister, I do."

Gongsun Xihua looked at her sister distressedly. She knew that her sister must have many difficulties in her heart. She said softly, "I don't want you to get married and suffer."

Gongsun Yuechan shook her head gently and tried to force a smile: "Sister, don't worry. I'm fine. I will make King Lan like me."

Gongsun Xihua nodded helplessly. She knew that this was her sister's decision and could only support her silently. The two sisters hugged each other tightly, feeling each other's warmth and strength.

However, the moment the two hugged each other, their eyes became wet and tears flowed down their cheeks.
