Chapter 454: 230 Shaking the whole field (One more update)
The little eunuch brought back the lute case to Prince Rui’s mansion.
Princess Rui was sitting in the pavilion, yawning.
The little eunuch asked, “Your Highness, would you like to take a look?”
Anything brought back from Gu Jiao, Princess Rui would totally trust, she waved her hand to the little eunuch, “Keep it safely.”
“Yes!” The little eunuch carries the lute case into Princess Rui’s room.
Maiden Xu was directing the maids to tidy up the room, the little eunuch bowed to her, “Sister Xu, the princess ordered me to bring this lute, where should I put it?”
Maiden Xu found a cabinet that they used often, “Put it here for now. It will be used again in a few days.”
The emissary from Liang Country was arriving, and the Crown Princess had sent a message asking Princess Rui if she could play a tune for the emissaries as a gesture of courtesy.
How on earth was the Crown Princess not aware that Princess Rui was pregnant?
Princess Rui had had a surgery earlier this year, and got pregnant before her body had fully recovered. The Imperial physician had advised her to stay in bed as much as possible.
Maiden Xu was full of complaints, but she didn’t dare to voice them out. With a disgruntled expression, she closed the cabinet.
The third month of the year, the time when the grasses grew and nightingales sang, the whole Capital City was vibrant.
The streets were bustling with people, a never-ending flow.
The main roads of Capital City were wide, capable of hosting at least four horse-drawn carriages at a time. The wider ones like Vermilion Bird Avenue near the Imperial Palace, could accommodate more than ten carriages without feeling crowded.
The third prince brought the horse-drawn carriage to a smooth stop at the destination mentioned by Gu Jiao.
The third prince looked up at the plaque which read ‘Taihe Martial Arts Academy’ in large letters, unable to believe his eyes, “Maid Gu, are you sure we’re at the right place?”
After all that turning here and there, could he have taken a wrong turn somewhere?
Gu Jiao lifted the curtains to look around and replied, “Yes, this is the place.”
The third prince’s bewilderment only grew. “But Maid Gu, why are we here? Are you…going on an appointment?”
But why would she need to change her clothes for that? Could it be that this medical hall didn’t allow female doctors?
“Reading is above all else”, but some born were naturally not school material. They wished to learn martial arts. After learning martial arts, they could become bodyguards or teach martial arts or they could even serve as guards at big families’ households… There were always plenty of ways to make a living and it was better than farming. ƒreewebɳovel.com
