Gu Qingtong worriedly looked at Luo Xue, wanting to bring her back, but Han Yuan’an’s glance stopped her. She could only watch the two sisters being taken away, thinking to herself that she had been too impulsive.
Here’s the edited version of the provided text, with irrelevant content removed:
Han Yuan’an ordered someone to call a doctor for Liang Luoxian’s injury, then looked at Gu Qingtong: “Tong Tong, come with me.”
“Yes.” Gu Qingtong followed his steps, wondering about his sudden change in attitude towards Liang Luoxian.
“Yes, it is said that the princess is dissatisfied with the third young master of the Yan family because of Liang Qingniang. Previously, the princess missed her chance with Gu Qingniang. This time, she wants Gu Qingniang to come.”
“Understood,” Han Yue’an nodded.
“But the princess’s sedan chair has already come to pick her up.”
“So soon?” Gu Qingtong was startled, sensing something bad was about to happen.
“Yes, the princess wants Gu Qingniang to familiarize herself with the palace rules,” the person said, their voice softening.
Han Yue’an sighed. The previous top-tier qingniang had just retired, and Gu Qingtong had never entered the palace before, so she was bound to make mistakes. However, Princess Wan’qiu had already chosen her, so he could only make arrangements.
“Quan Zhong, personally escort Gu Qingniang over and have Lüguo watch carefully.”
Gu Qingtong wanted to return to her room to change her clothes, but as soon as she stepped out, several matrons pushed her towards the sedan chair.
After entering the palace gates, Gu Qingtong changed to a royal sedan chair and soon arrived at a palace called Yixia Hall.
Gu Qingtong secretly glanced around. A girl around fifteen years old sat in the main seat, her round face still looking childish, with rosy lips and white teeth, but her eyes were full of mockery and disdain—truly a girl raised in the palace.
“This servant Gu Qingtong pays respects to the princess. May the princess live ten thousand years, ten thousand years, ten thousand and ten thousand years,” Gu Qingtong bowed respectfully.
“Are you Gu Qingtong?”
“Yes.”
“Raise your head and let this princess take a look,” Princess Wan’qiu lifted her chin, yet was somewhat curious, staring with her slightly small eyes.
