Hail to the Princess Episode 5 Recap
> Hail to the Princess Recap
The Crown Princess invited them to join the Empress Dowager in praying at the temple, and Li Xiao's group went along. Gu Rong felt her feet were getting numb, and Li Xiao advised them to behave, mentioning that the relationship between Master Huiming and the Empress Dowager was excellent, and the Empress Dowager held Master Huiming in high regard. Master Huiming called Gu Rong over and expressed that Gu Rong's older sister had always wanted a son but had only given birth to daughters. If he were still alive, he would surely be fond of Gu Rong.
During the meal with the Empress Dowager, Gu Rong mentioned that she had never met her grandmother and regretted it. Now that her mother and sister were going to the border, she felt very reluctant to part with them. Li Xiao suggested a nearby Lingyu Temple, known for its spiritual efficacy, and Gu Rong wanted to go there for prayers. The Empress Dowager was pleased and agreed to go together.
At Lingyu Temple, there were many mosquitoes at night, and the Empress Dowager couldn't sleep. She went for a walk with Gu Rong and unexpectedly witnessed the Crown Prince and Princess Heng having an affair. The Empress Dowager was furious. Shen Mengchui returned and told Li Xiao's group about the incident, but they already knew.
Gu Rong mentioned that on the day of the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, Shen Mengchui noticed that Princess Heng looked flustered. When she went to find Shen Mengchui, she saw the Crown Prince nearby. When Gu Rong interacted with the various princesses, she overheard some gossip. Despite King Heng's absence, Princess Heng frequently went out.
