Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!

Gu Shengyin and her two servants all looked somewhat dazed.

"Commandery Princess?" Hu Zhu looked at Gu Shengyin worriedly. Although outsiders weren't aware of her own Commandery Princess's betrothal to the Crown Prince, those who had been attending her from a young age like herself knew it very well. Today's actions of the Crown Prince and Jiang Yunsan were nothing short of a blatant slap in Jiang Lingzhen's face.

Gu Shengyin's face was still somewhat pale, with Jiang Lingzhen's temperament; she would certainly not have informed her parents upon discovering such a matter and would have even strictly ordered her maids not to leak this out.

But Gu Shengyin was unwilling to do so! Why should she allow that shameless couple to get off so lightly!

Eldest Princess Wen Cheng noticed immediately that something was wrong with her precious daughter's complexion after she returned.

"Ah Zhen, what's wrong? Did something unhappy happen to you outside?" Eldest Princess Wen Cheng asked, her face full of heartache.

Upon seeing her mother, Jiang Lingzhen's earlier forcibly restrained emotions suddenly burst out, and she threw herself into Eldest Princess Wen Cheng's arms and started crying.

Eldest Princess Wen Cheng immediately panicked. She had always been noble and unapproachable outside but was incredibly tender to the bone with this only daughter of hers—her heart's flesh, her palm's pearl. Besides, Ah Zhen was always emotionally reserved; when had she ever cried so bitterly?

But no matter how she tried to coax her, Gu Shengyin just kept crying and refused to speak.

Of course, Gu Shengyin wouldn't speak; the more aggrieved she appeared, the greater Eldest Princess Wen Cheng's rage would become. Although it felt somewhat like exploiting Eldest Princess Wen Cheng's love for her daughter, thinking of the original Jiang Lingzhen and the fate of the Jiang Family, Gu Shengyin could only force herself to harden her heart.

"You two were with the Commandery Princess today. What exactly happened!" Eldest Princess Wen Cheng's gaze was as piercing as a drawn sword as she turned it toward Hu Zhu and Lin Lang.

Hu Zhu and Lin Lang naturally dared not hide anything, and, trembling with fear, they knelt on the ground and relayed the shameful affair they had encountered between the Second Prince and the Second Miss today.

"Rubbish!" Eldest Princess Wen Cheng didn't know whether she was cursing the Second Prince or Jiang Yunsan, "This is simply... simply too outrageous!"

She never would have imagined that right here in this peaceful Buddhist land, under her own eyes, they would commit such a disgraceful act.

"Ah Zhen." Eldest Princess Wen Cheng gently pulled Gu Shengyin, who was buried in her arms, back up.

"Tell your mother, do you actually like the Second Prince?"

Gu Shengyin was stunned for a good while, her bewildered eyes paired with her red eyes and nose made her look especially pitiful. She shook her head and said softly, "I don't know."

The original Jiang Lingzhen naturally liked him, but it was only after the grand wedding. The current feelings Jiang Lingzhen had for the Second Prince were still lingering at the stage of a faint fondness. As for Gu Shengyin, it was even less likely she would have any fondness for such a scoundrel.

Seeing her like this, Eldest Princess Wen Cheng actually felt relieved.

This appearance of her daughter clearly indicated that she had not yet fallen for him. Today's grievance was probably nothing more than feeling that the Second Prince's behavior was a great affront to her own dignity.

She breathed a sigh of relief; this was much easier to handle. If Ah Zhen had really developed feelings for the Second Prince, it would take much more effort to persuade her daughter. No matter what, the Second Prince, a person of such character, would definitely not be a good match.

She stood up straight and instructed the maids to bring up hot water, then turned to face the still bewildered Gu Shengyin, "Ah Zhen, look at your mother."

Gu Shengyin looked over with some confusion.

"You are the daughter of the Grand Princess, the only legitimate daughter of the Great General, and the Princess Lang Hua personally titled by His Majesty." Eldest Princess Wen Cheng looked at her proudly, "At any time, you can proudly hold up your head, the likes of the Second Prince and Jiang Yunsan aren't worth your tears!"
