The Crown Prince, Rong Jialuo, and the Twelfth Prince, Rong Yan.
Since the two princes had arrived, Gu Xietian had to welcome them respectfully.
Gu Xietian was puzzled. Rong Yan was the future son-in-law of the General's residence and a frequent visitor, so it was normal for him to come and join in the fun.
But why did the Crown Prince come?
Gu Xietian was confused and uneasy.
Everyone in the imperial court knew that the General's residence belonged to the Fourth Prince. Usually, the Crown Prince would not even visit them. Why did the sun rise from the south this time?
Although he was puzzled, he still had to do something. He immediately ordered the servants to prepare another table for the two princes …
Rong Jialuo raised his hand and smiled, "General Gu, you don't have to be so polite. My twelfth brother and I heard that your son has returned, so we are here to see him. You don't have to be so formal, let's sit together." He had the authority of a superior, so no one dared to refuse him.
Gu Xietian could not refuse, so after a few polite words, he invited the two princes to sit in the main seat.
After all, the two princes were outsiders. Logically, they should not sit with the ladies of the General's residence. Gu Xietian originally planned to have his son and himself to accompany them, while the ladies went to the inner house to arrange a few other tables.
However, Rong Jialuo's words disrupted his plan, "General Gu, you can sit where you like, I like the feeling of a family dinner."
He glanced around the hall and said, "I have long heard that General Gu has a few good daughters, but unfortunately, I have never had the chance to meet them. My twelfth brother is the future son-in-law of the General's residence, so we are considered a family. There are no outsiders here, so let's invite the ladies to sit together. It will be more lively if the family sits together. "
Gu Xietian was speechless.
He really did not know what the Crown Prince was planning.
Could it be that he liked his daughters?
Did he want to marry one of them to be the Crown Prince's wife?
And also to pull the General's residence into the camp of the Crown Prince?
That was possible …
The officialdom was like a battlefield, and it was taboo to be a fence-sitter.
Gu Xietian was on the side of the Fourth Prince, so he naturally did not want his daughters to have anything to do with the Crown Prince. Thus, he found a few reasons to shirk the responsibility, such as saying that his daughters were ugly and vulgar and were not worthy of the Crown Prince's attention.
Rong Jialuo sat in front of the table and tapped his fingers on the table leisurely. He glanced at Gu Xietian with a faint smile and said, "I am just curious and want to meet them. General Gu, are you saying that I am not qualified to meet them?"
Gu Xietian's face turned pale when he heard that. He kept saying that he didn't dare to do that. He had no choice but to ask his daughters to come out and greet them.
…
Although Gu Xijiu had only been in this world for a short period of time, she was still very clear about the general structure of this world. She also knew about the hidden turbulence between the princes in the imperial court.
She also knew that her father was on the Fourth Prince's side, so she was a little puzzled by Rong Jialuo's sudden arrival. She did not understand what was wrong with the Crown Prince …
"Master, does he already know that you are the one who saved him? Is it because you touched him, so he wants you to take responsibility? "The Firmament Stone guessed.
