The Crown Prince didn't particularly blame himself for forgetting - the capital was teeming with people. High gates and grand estates, prominent families, these melodramatic events were too commonplace for him. He only paid heed as an after-dinner chit-chat, who would take it to heart?
The Crown Prince furrowed his brows: "So she..."
The Crown Prince's Consort said, "She is Xiao Liulang's wife, they met and got married in the countryside. It was only after the marriage that she discovered that she was the mistakenly identified daughter of a noble family."
The Crown Prince humphed, "From this perspective, Xiao Liulang is quite lucky. A poor country boy randomly marries a village girl who turns out to be the daughter of a Marquis. Despite her plainness, her status is unquestionable."
The Crown Prince's Consort paused, then said: "But I have heard that Miss Gu has not returned to the Gu Family."
"Why didn't she return?" the Crown Prince asked in confusion.
