Chapter 315 The Third Prince
Gu Huan walked out of the door and saw Zhou Chunyu kneeling in the yard, staring at the door.
She sighed and stepped forward: "Manager Zhou, you can go see Sister Zhou, but..."
Seeing him excitedly jump up and bow to her, Gu Huan quickly said, "I warn you, don't force my sister. If my sister says she doesn't want to see you in the future, you must disappear from her sight immediately. Otherwise, I will order someone to drag you away."
Zhou Chunyu nodded while crying: "Thank you, Princess. I will obey your command."
"Wipe your tears. How dare you, a former great general, cry like this?"
Zhou Chunyu quickly wiped away his tears and walked quickly into the house.
Gu Huan followed, closed the door herself, stood behind Zhou Chunyu, and signaled Zhou Zhilan to rest assured.
Zhou Zhilan looked away and didn't look at Zhou Chunyu.
Zhou Chunyu knelt in front of her bed and held her hand with trembling hands.
Cautiously touching Zhou Zhilan's cold hand, he felt heartbroken and tears streamed down his face. He was unable to utter a word for a moment.
Gu Huan was speechless, but she could have said something, at least to comfort Sister Zhilan.
This guy is usually resourceful and seems to be able to plan everything, so why has he become stupid now?
She raised her foot and kicked him on the instep.
Zhou Chunyu was startled and turned back to look at her. Gu Huan glared at her.
Zhou Chunyu came back to his senses, turned his head and said softly to Zhou Zhilan: "Zhilan, it's all my fault that I didn't protect you well and made you suffer."
Zhou Zhilan looked at her steadily, tears streaming down her face.
Zhou Chunyu wiped away her tears and gently stroked her face: "I promise that I will never let you get hurt. The prince and princess are catching those thieves. After they are caught, I will personally cut them into pieces to avenge you."
Zhou Zhilan's face suddenly changed, her fingers suddenly became stiff, and her lips trembled, as if she was constantly saying no no no no.
Zhou Chunyu was frightened and quickly called out: "Chen..."
Gu Huan knelt beside the bed and said, "No need to call Chen Li."
Just now, Zhou Zhilan also had this expression, probably...
Gu Huan asked cautiously: "Sister, do you recognize the thief?"
Zhou Zhilan's pupils trembled, her face showed panic, and her head shook vigorously, as if she was shaking her head.
Gu Huan carefully probed: "You don't want us to continue chasing the thieves?"
Zhou Zhilan stopped shaking her head, but her tears couldn't stop falling.
Gu Huan's heart trembled, remembering a jade pendant found by the guard, who said it belonged to Zhao Yuchen.
Could it be that...
Zhou Chunyu and Gu Huan each had their own guesses, but they couldn't say anything in front of Zhou Zhilan.
They both realized that the thief who assaulted Zhou Zhilan might be someone Zhou Zhilan knew.
Zhou Chunyu was filled with rage and wished he could find the person immediately and skin him alive.
Mu Junyan's voice came from outside the yard. He was asking about Shen Li's situation.
Gu Huan glanced at Zhou Zhilan and felt that her mood was okay and she should not reject Zhou Chunyu.
Then he whispered, "Manager Zhou, stay with my sister. I'll go ask the prince if he has caught the person."
Zhou Chunyu said in a hoarse voice: "Okay."
Gu Huan looked at Zhou Zhilan again, and seeing that she was fine, she walked out with peace of mind.
When Mu Junyan saw her, he stepped forward and held her hand, "How is it?"
Gu Huan nodded: "Sister Shen, take good care of Sister Zhou."
She held Mu Junyan's hand and pulled him out.
After the two of them left the Zhou residence, Gu Huan stopped and turned to ask him, "How is it? Did you catch him?"
"We caught a few, and the rest will come on their own."
Gu Huan was surprised: "You came here by yourself? What does that mean?"
Mu Junyan's face was calm: "It's Zhao Yuchen."
Gu Huan's eyes widened: "Are you talking about the third prince Zhao Yuchen?"
"Yes." Mu Junyan nodded: "We caught three of them. Not long after, Zhao Yuchen showed up himself. The other two people guarding him were from that group."
Gu Huan's eyes were blazing with anger: "How dare they come here by themselves?"
"Zhao Yuchen wants to ask me to return the people we captured, including Wang Heng."
Gu Hua laughed angrily: "Where are they!"
"The palace."
Gu Huan was furious and ran straight to the palace.
Zhao Yuchen was actually sitting in the main hall, drinking tea leisurely.
He is already eighteen years old this year, with a romantic appearance. Sitting there, he completely regards himself as a superior.
Gu Huan's face darkened as she rushed directly in front of him and stared at him coldly: "Third Prince."
Zhao Yuchen saw a flash of surprise in her eyes and said with a smile: "Oh, this is the most beautiful Princess Yong, right? She is really as charming as her reputation says."
Mu Junyan's face darkened, and he quickly stepped forward to block Gu Huan, and said in a deep voice: "Third Prince, be careful with your words!"
Zhao Yuchen snorted and swung his crossed legs: "I don't blame you for being rude, but Prince Yong is here to tell me to be careful with my words?"
Gu Huan couldn't bear it any longer, pushed Mu Junyan away, and angrily asked: "Did you kidnap Sister Zhou?"
Zhao Yuchen raised his eyebrows: "Kidnap? What do you mean by kidnap? It means invite, please come over."
Gu Huan was so angry that she pulled out a dagger and stabbed him in the neck.
His two followers were furious and immediately drew their swords. However, before the swords were unsheathed, their hands were chopped off. They screamed in pain, holding their arms.
Zhao Yuchen's face changed drastically, and he was about to jump up, but Gu Huan's dagger was already against his neck.
His eyes suddenly became flustered. He didn't expect that the beautiful and delicate girl had such amazing skills.
"You, you, you dare to assassinate my highness, you, your Yongwang Mansion is going to rebel!"
Gu Huan approached: "You violated Sister Zhou, didn't you!"
"Of course not. I have seen all kinds of beauties, how could I possibly like her? It was all my fault. I came here to apologize."
Mu Junyan held Gu Huan's hand and whispered, "Don't be impulsive."
Gu Huan's eyes were blazing with anger, but this man was a prince after all.
She suppressed her anger and put away the dagger, but she would never let go of the person who harmed her sister.
"Your Highness, the people who kidnapped my sister are all your people. Now that they are all here, let's try them in public."
Gu Huan looked at Mu Junyan, her eyes full of coldness.
If he stopped her, she would not care about the relationship between husband and wife.
Zhao Yuchen's face turned pale. He glanced at his two subordinates who were crying in pain with their hands in their arms, and cursed them harshly, saying it was useless.
Outside the yard, Wang Heng and several others were tied up and thrown to the ground.
When Wang Heng saw Zhao Yuchen, he immediately shouted.
"Your Highness, please save me quickly. That vicious woman Gu Huan stabbed me. They are planning a rebellion!"
Gu Huan walked slowly in front of him with a dagger in her hand. Seeing this, Wang Heng trembled with fear.
But Zhao Yuchen was present, so he couldn't be timid.
He tried to straighten himself up. "You, you, you vicious woman, you dare to assassinate an official of the imperial court. You should be put to death according to the law!"
Gu Huan raised the dagger and pointed it at him: "You dared to plot to kidnap my Mu family army's female general, and you also injured and humiliated her, you deserve to be killed! I killed you only to avenge Sister Zhilan. Even if I go to the emperor, I am right. Tell me, who humiliated Sister Zhilan? If you don't, I will castrate you first, and make you, the future Wang family of Langya, childless!"
Wang Heng was so frightened when he saw the cold dagger approaching.
"Your Highness, Your Highness..."
Zhao Yuchen didn't expect Gu Huan to be so fierce and even wanted to castrate...
He was so scared that his legs tightened and he clamped his thighs together subconsciously.
Wang Heng was frightened when he saw that Zhao Yuchen showed no sign of saving him, and hurriedly said, "No, no, no, it wasn't me. It really wasn't me. I planned it, but I was in Dali at the time. They were the ones who kidnapped Miss Zhou, and they were the ones who insulted Miss Zhou."
Gu Huan swept her cold eyes over the group of people, "Come here, castrate them all!"
