Chapter 12 If You Don't Recognize Me, I Can Understand

"If Your Highness can't even agree to this, it would be very sad."

Zhao Mingzhu picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes.

Gu Qingheng looked at her and suddenly smiled: "Okay."

Zhao Mingzhu's fingers cracked open after hearing this, confirming, "No matter when, where, or why I get into a terrible disaster, Your Highness will save my life."

Gu Qingheng nodded.

The surprise came too easily. She thought she would need to negotiate with the other party a bit, but now she agreed. Zhao Mingzhu breathed a sigh of relief.

My sense of peace of mind has increased a lot.

She immediately took out the prepared paper from her arms. How could a verbal agreement be enough? It still had to be put into practice.

She diligently ground the ink and said, "Then Your Highness, please sign your name and affix your seal."

Sure enough, after Gu Qingheng agreed, he cooperated very well.

Zhao Mingzhu looked at the signature and seal and couldn't stop smiling.

This is her purpose today.

Small effort, big gain, yeah.

Now that the deal was done, Zhao Mingzhu knew it was time to leave. She closed the lunch box lid, smiled kindly, and her favorability towards the person in front of her grew:

"Then your highness, have a good meal, and you can get busy."

Changhe, who was standing outside the house, heard footsteps and looked in the direction of the sound. He turned his head away and felt ashamed for the other lion's loud words.

And His Highness actually agreed to her excessive request.

Zhao Mingzhu passed by him, turned around suddenly, and smiled evilly:

"If you keep teasing me in your heart, I'll take you next time."

Chang He regained his expressionless face: "Take care, Crown Princess."

After she left, the white dove circling in the palace landed on his arm. He took the letter, brought it into the study, and presented it to Gu Qingheng.

He spoke angrily, "Your Highness, why did you agree to her? She just bought drugs that can knock out a cow. It's obvious that she is trying to save herself after her trick fails."

Zhao Mingzhu's previous stupidity and badness were all exposed, but now he has made preparations for both situations.

Moreover, Changhe looked at Gu Qingheng with hesitation, as he always felt that the other party looked like a vixen who was bringing disaster to the king.

Gu Qingheng only took a glance and said in a normal tone: "Just save your life."

Chang He was about to say something when he suddenly remembered that there were many punishments in the East Palace dungeon that could save the victim's life while causing the victim to suffer for a lifetime.

And another place.

When Qiao'er was in the courtyard, she saw two maids approaching. They knelt down when they saw her.

"Meet Sister Qiao'er."

Seeing this, Qiao'er waved her hands: "Who are you?"

Ever since her young lady got married, there has been no one else in the main hall except the cleaning maid outside. Even the cleaning maid knows nothing when asked, which shows how unwelcome they are.

Qiao'er thought her young lady would make a big fuss, but unexpectedly she accepted it so quickly.

The two maids' personalities were very obvious. The lively one said, "My name is Jinzhu, and hers is Yinzhu. Both were given by the Crown Princess."

The Crown Princess mentioned gold, silver and bright pearls, which immediately suggested wealth and fortune.

Yinzhu nodded slightly when she heard this: "His Highness has assigned us to the Crown Princess."

At this time, Zhao Mingzhu came back. Qiaoer hurriedly asked if all the things had been received. Zhao Mingzhu complained while holding the food box:

"Let me sleep with my pillow elevated tonight."

Qiao'er couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and she said that those requirements were too harsh.

Putting aside other things, her young lady was really brave enough to ask for ten boxes of property deeds in the capital.

Zhao Mingzhu was very happy because she got the life-saving talisman. She dragged a recliner under the pomegranate tree and started taking a nap.

In early spring, the leaves are lush and you can occasionally see a touch of bright red among the lush leaves. Qiao'er, Jinzhu and Yinzhu are sitting under the corridor playing leaf cards.

Jinzhu asked Qiao'er, "Won't she blame us if we don't go to serve her?"

Yinzhu: "You won't blame me?"

Qiao'er played a card without looking up: "Don't worry, it won't happen."

The ladies in the past were much more difficult to serve than they are now, but the ladies nowadays are very easy to get along with, although she often doesn’t understand them.

In the dream, Zhao Mingzhu was standing in front of her office desk, looking a little confused, and looked at her work clothes.

I remember now, it’s the days when she was treated like a slave.

Zhao Mingzhu turned around and was about to settle the score with the stingy boss, but was stopped by her colleague.

"Why are you still here?"

"My salary hasn't been paid yet, go find him."

Zhao Mingzhu rolled up her sleeves and was determined to take down the unscrupulous boss!

"Oh, why are we still looking for him? He was stabbed last week because of unpaid wages. He tried to escape, but was hit by a car and thrown two miles away. The doctor said he'll be paralyzed from the waist down. His wife, kids, and mother all ran away, leaving him with nothing but a dog."

Zhao Mingzhu was delighted after hearing this and was about to ask for details.

But the scene immediately changed. She changed into her daytime palace dress and stood in an unfamiliar palace.

Where is this?

She tentatively said hello twice, but no one answered. Suddenly, someone grabbed her wrist. The cold touch made Zhao Mingzhu turn her head in horror.

"Are you here to keep me company?"

Gu, Zhao Mingzhu knew who he was instantly.

"Yeah, I'm here to keep you company."

Zhao Mingzhu was rubbing her hands in anticipation, and a malicious thought suddenly emerged: "Your Highness, have you forgotten that I once held you in my arms when you were a child?"

Old swan! He is so cute. When he was a child, Gu Qingheng was fair and tender, with curved eyebrows and eyes. It seemed that there were stars in his eyes, just like a fairy child in the sky.

After hearing this, little Gu Qingheng tilted his head in confusion: "Then why do I have no memory?"

Zhao Mingzhu took his hand and began to deceive him: "I was your godmother when you were a baby, but because of the harm done by a villain, I have been hiding from you, so I have never been able to see you. Qingheng, if you are still willing to recognize me, then call me mother. If you don't recognize me, I can understand."

Zhao Mingzhu clutched her handkerchief and sobbed, but there was no response from the other party. She glanced over secretly and saw a look of looking at Gu Qingheng as if he was a fool.

Zhao Mingzhu was helpless. The big devil had become smaller and was not easy to deceive.

Gu Qingheng pulled her to the table and smiled sweetly:

"Since you've come to accompany me, I can't treat you unfairly. Here's a bowl of steamed yogurt with sugar for you."

Zhao Mingzhu was immediately relieved when she heard this, thinking that you have a conscience.

The jade bowl is filled with white and delicate yogurt, with crystal-clear crushed ice in the middle. The red bean paste on the top exudes a rich sweet fragrance that fills the nose.

Zhao Mingzhu picked up a piece of ice with a silver spoon and asked casually, "Is this hawthorn jam mixed in with the crushed ice?"

It’s bright red and looks pretty good.

Gu Qingheng propped up his jaw and said, "It's human blood. They must have been lazy recently and didn't handle it properly."

Zhao Mingzhu's hands froze. Human blood?!

She stared at the contents of the silver spoon, then at the red sticky substance in the crushed ice in the jade bowl. The faint smell of blood made her scalp tingle and she wished she could throw it two miles away.

Seeing that she didn't eat, Gu Qingheng tilted his head and looked innocent: "Why don't you eat?"

"Who brought you the cheese?" Zhao Mingzhu asked, suppressing her nausea.

The plot never mentions Gu Qingheng's childhood, but he is the crown prince of a country, precious and honored. Who dares to treat him like this?

Seeing that she didn't eat, Gu Qingheng felt quite sorry and said something even more horrifying.

"The part delivered today should be my mother's brain. You won't be able to leave here unless you eat it."

After saying that, he picked up the silver spoon and ate slowly, one mouthful after another, his slowness filled with cruelty and numbness.

This scene will be unforgettable for Zhao Mingzhu for the rest of her life.
