The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

"Miss, how do you know that it was a Japanese slave?"

Bai Wei helped Gu Jinchu get on the carriage, and after he was seated firmly, she couldn't wait to ask the questions in her mind.

Gu Jinchu leaned against the carriage with his eyes closed, thinking about the Spring Tea Party in his previous life.

He replied nonchalantly: "How would I know? I just don't like her getting in my way. Of course I have to teach her a lesson."

Bai Wei believed it, but she still felt a lingering fear in her heart. The scene of Lord Qin suppressing the Japanese slaves was so terrifying.

The Spring Tea Banquet was hosted by Princess Zhao Xuan and was the first banquet after the establishment of the palace.

The banquet was held in the Ouxiang Pavilion in the garden. The Ouxiang Pavilion was built in the pond, with windows on all four sides and curved corridors on the left and right that spanned the water to the shore.

The princess gave a banquet, and most of the sixth-rank officials in the capital received invitations. Those who came were girls who were waiting to be married, and young men with tied hair who wanted to make friends over tea.

This location is just right.

In her previous life, Gu Jinchu had an argument with someone here. This time, she was delayed on the road, so the eldest princess took everyone to the garden.

Gu Jinchu didn't want to alarm anyone, so he followed quietly at the end of the team.

The eldest princess was the only daughter of Concubine Shu, who favored her greatly. When she was eight years old, the construction of this princess's mansion began, and it took a full seven years.

Each place is an independent landscape. People walk around and stop here and there, and there are groups of three or five people in the garden. It is very lively.

Noticing the maid beside him looking around, Gu Jinchu warned her.

"Bai Wei, this is the Princess's residence. If you disturb the noble lady, I can't save you!"

Just now this maid on the street was somewhat useful, but now she is a nuisance.

After experiencing the previous life, Gu Jinchu realized that he had been too indulgent towards this maid.

Bai Wei lowered her head, stretched the corner of her clothes and whispered, "Miss, Mr. Jiang is in front, do you want me to call him over quietly?"

"Shut up! From now on, you are not allowed to make any sound without my order!"

Gu Jinchu wanted to cover her mouth, she was not blind, she saw it!

There were a few people standing by a bamboo forest not far away. Among the young men dressed in straight-cut robes and tribute students' attire, that tall and straight figure was particularly outstanding.

He was still wearing the green Heron fifth-rank official uniform and holding a black official hat in his hand. It was Jiang Nansheng whom he had met not long ago.

The eldest princess and her ladies were at the waterside pavilion in front. If she wanted to go over, she had to pass through the bamboo forest.

That means you will run into Jiang Nansheng there.

Gu Jinchu was a little hesitant. She had something to say to him, but not at this moment.

"Gu's younger sister."

Next to Holly on the left, there were two young men dressed as tribute students. The taller one saw Gu Jinchu and greeted him.

Gu Jinchu looked at him, feeling relieved, and replied with a faint smile, "Brother Lu."

The visitor was Lu Changzhou, the eldest son of the Lu family business in Baodi. The Lu family had business dealings with my maternal grandfather's family.

Lu Changzhou has a very good relationship with her cousins. She often went to her maternal grandparents' house when she was young and they are very familiar with each other.

The eldest princess would not send an invitation to the Lu family. Lu Zhizhou, the eldest son of the Lu family, is a tribute student. It is very precious for him to be able to come to such an occasion.

"I met Sister Gu here after we last met half a year ago." Lu Zhizhou's ears were red and he didn't dare to look at her.

Gu Jinchu felt someone was looking at him, so he turned aside and asked him softly, "Why didn't I see my third cousin coming with you?"

The boy's face turned redder and his speech became stammering, "Yes, yes, he is..."

The Gongsheng beside him pulled him and wanted to leave, saying in a hurried tone, "Brother Lu, stop talking, Lord Jiang is leaving."

Lu Zhizhou smiled foolishly at Gu Jinchu, "The cherries in Baodi are ripe."

Gu Jinchu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the bamboo forest had become quiet.

When she found the eldest princess, the maid next to Gao Jiayue was telling everyone a story in a vivid and colorful way.

When Bai Wei heard this, she wanted to step forward to argue, but was pulled back by Gu Jinchu.

This is the Princess's Mansion. She is the legitimate daughter of a sixth-rank civil official, and her status is the lowest among all the noble ladies.

Gao Jiayue is the granddaughter of Grand Tutor Gao, so even the eldest princess has to give her some face.

The moment Gu Jinchu appeared, Gao Jiayue saw her and waited for her maid to finish speaking before she spoke.

"Gu Jinchu, you are so shameless that you dare to neglect the princess's spring tea party."

Gu Jinchu bowed her body and said, "Hello, Princess. Hello, sisters."

He raised his head and looked at everyone with a smile, "Sorry, I was delayed on the way here."

Everyone could see clearly how Gu Jinchu was dressed today. She was wearing a red dress, especially the sapphire in the red bead string on her forehead.

It’s not a headband, and it’s not a collar. It’s an outfit I’ve never seen before, but it looks pretty good.

"Hmph, sensationalizing!"

Gao Jiayue didn't want to admit that Gu Jinchu was so flamboyant and beautiful.

Gu Jinchu didn't seem to mind and lifted the gemstone beads up a little so that everyone could see the redness, swelling and bruises underneath.

"The carriage was hit on the way here, so I made some small decorations to avoid spoiling the appearance."

The eldest princess came over, looked her up and down, and praised her, "You are quite clever."

"The embroiderers at the Treasure Pavilion are very skilled. If you don't mind, you can ask them to match the most suitable beads to your face shape and dress."

After hearing what Gu Jinchu said, these noble ladies were more or less tempted.

The fact that she could move around in this circle as the legitimate daughter of a sixth-rank official was more or less related to her maternal family.

The Treasure Pavilion was the dowry given by the Zheng family to Mrs. Gu, and would belong to Gu Jinchu in the future. She was generous and lavish in her spending.

In her previous life, she didn't care about money and was known as a person with a lot of money.

"You reek of money. To put it nicely, it's a riot, but you're the one bullying an orphan girl in the street."

The girl who was speaking was standing next to Gao Jiayue. She was wearing a lavender long skirt with a branch pattern. It was last year's style, and the pattern looked a little faded.

Gu Jinchu felt that she looked unfamiliar and her hairstyle was beyond the age of marriage.

"I wonder what this sister means by this?"

The girl became a little nervous when Gu Jinchu asked her back, and the silk handkerchief embroidered with red plums was wrapped around her fingers.

"Everyone knows that the eldest daughter of the Gu family is overbearing. She relies on her maternal family's wealth to bully others and do that..."

She couldn't say the following words and glanced at the noble ladies around her.

Gu Jinchu was glad that they didn't know that her grandmother had done a favor to Concubine Shu, otherwise she wouldn't know how they would frame her.

How would Gu Jinchu have handled the situation in his previous life? He would probably let Bai Wei fight with the other party, and maybe even swing the whip in his hand.

Bai Wei rushed out anyway, "That orphan who sold herself to bury her father is standing in the way. My young lady is going to attend the Spring Banquet, not to mention..."

Before she could finish her words, she was slapped in the face by someone. It was the maid beside Gao Jiayue.

"Miss…"

Bai Wei lost all her arrogance. She covered her cheeks and looked at Gu Jinchu with red eyes.
