C148 The smell of a dungeon (1/2)

”How did you know about this?”

With a thought, Baili Jinxiu sensed that something was unusual about this matter.

Logically speaking, this was the marriage of the only direct descendant of the second house in Jiang Mansion, so it was naturally not a small matter.

His grandmother from the Grandfather was still alive, and the relationship between his grandmother and the Empress Dowager was not ordinary. Gong Yuyun had been raised by the empress dowager since young, but rarely came out to see guests.

When the empress dowager wanted to go and pray, she would immediately take Gong Yuyun, the successor, away. Logically speaking, a man like Gong Yuyun should already be married.

However, this was strange.

Gong Yuyun was the orphan of the empress dowager's youngest son, and was his cousin to Gong Xiaoxuan and the others.

But the imperial concubine was the empress dowager's niece, and Gong Xiaoche was the empress dowager's most beloved grandson. Otherwise, how could the empress dowager, who was a friend of his grandmother, betroth him to Gong Xiaoche?

It was because the empress dowager doted on Gong Xiaoche and her own Grandfather had not yet resigned from her position. In the imperial court, she could be said to be the strongest official amongst the group of officials and was one of the most important officials below ten thousand people.

At that time, Jiang Ge had not yet been born and she was still Grandfather's only granddaughter. Even if it was his granddaughter, he was still the best candidate for the marriage.

So, he was bestowed marriage with Gong Xiaoche just like that.

And according to the news that Baili Jinxiu had gotten from the Grandpa Mu, the relationship between the Empress and the empress dowager could be seen from many places.

The empress dowager favored imperial concubines and was more willing to let Emperor favor her.

But Gong Yuyun was the closest to the empress dowager. Under such circumstances, how could the empress who didn't get along with the empress dowager want to propose marriage to Jiang Ge?

”Did Grandmother come to the palace to tell me about this?”

If it was his grandmother who entered the palace, the empress dowager might have specifically ordered her to speak up.

Jiang Ge said shyly, ”No, it was when my mother entered the palace.”

Baili Jinxiu's heart thumped. Can she tell Jiang Ge that she smelled a conspiracy?

When Baili Jinxiu went back to listen to his mother, he felt that this matter was even more strange.

At night, Baili Jinxiu could only listen to the baby's incessant chatter in his mind. In addition to what had happened with Jiang Ge, he was still unable to sit still.

They directly rushed towards the Prince An Palace. The way she was dressed up now was also painted on, so the guards could recognize her.

”Is the Prince here?”

Just as Baili Jinxiu stood at the door and asked the guards, he saw Gong Xiaoxuan walk out. Behind him followed He Sheng and a few others.

Upon seeing Baili Jinxiu, He Sheng and the others greeted him respectfully.

”Nice to meet you, Miss.”

”Hello everyone, are you going out?” Baili Jinxiu asked curiously, but did not dare to take a glance at Gong Xiaoxuan.

Afraid that if she looked once, Gong Xiaoxuan would ask her if she wanted to get married?

Heavens, the shadow left on her that night was too big.

”Miss, do you want to go with us? Prince is going to the army camp now. ”

He Sheng gave Baili Jinxiu a meaningful glance, and Baili Jinxiu immediately understood what he meant.

The military camp. That dungeon was in the military camp. So, did something happen to them?
