Chapter 124 Like a Salted Egg Yolk

The setting sun is close to the sea level, bright yellow, like a salted egg yolk.

Zhao Mingzhu looked back and saw that she was really hungry.

"Where's Qiao'er?" Zhao Mingzhu walked slowly, the white sand under her feet was soft and loose.

Gu Qingheng held her hand without looking back. Zhao Mingzhu guessed that she was too busy taking care of herself yesterday, so this man wouldn't do anything to Qiao'er, right?

Gu Qingheng was enjoying the tranquility and harmony of the moment, but a furry head appeared in his peripheral vision, with crystal tassels on the temples flashing.

"What does the Crown Princess think? Not only did she not report the truth, but she also helped you escape."

Regarding this question, Zhao Mingzhu said: "I forced her to do this. You have already taken the debt from me, so there is no need to bother with a maid."

Zhao Mingzhu stood there, staring at Gu Qingheng's back and frowning.

"What if I have ordered Changhe to be executed on the spot?" Gu Qingheng noticed that she did not follow him, turned around and said slowly.

"Then it seems that my only way to atone for my sin is to die."

After hearing this, Zhao Mingzhu patted the sand on the bottom of her feet and said lightly:

"Gu Qingheng, I know you are far stronger than me, and it is difficult for me to get anything good from you, but as the saying goes, fortunes change, and I will not be controlled by you forever."

At worst, she would just close her eyes and kick her legs, and that would be it.

"But then again, if you really like me, but you kill everyone around me without mercy, then you should go see a doctor and get rid of the evil spirits."

Gu Qingheng looked back at her, and Zhao Mingzhu's eyes were clear and she could see through him.

Gu Qingheng walked over, picked up the shawl that was dragging on the sand, and watched the sand fall back down.

"She's in the woodshed. She just went hungry for two meals."

Zhao Mingzhu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. She lifted up her skirt and was about to run, with her shawl fluttering. Gu Qingheng reached out to grab it, but the shawl passed over his hand and flew away.

He looked at Zhao Mingzhu's back, his eyes flickering.

In the small courtyard, Qiao'er crouched down to look through the crack of the door. She was a little worried: "I don't know how the young lady is doing now."

At this time, a figure came like the wind. It was Zhao Mingzhu.

She said happily: "Miss!"

Zhao Mingzhu saw that she was fine, and then said, "Qiao'er, stand aside. I'll kick the door directly."

After she finished speaking, she kicked the door hard and it opened.

The long river holding the key: ...

The master and servant hugged each other, and Zhao Mingzhu patted Qiao'er's head: "It's okay, we are all fine."

Qiao'er felt that something must have happened. Zhao Mingzhu had escaped, which was such a big thing, and now he was caught by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

How could he escape punishment so easily?

Qiao Er touched Zhao Mingzhu and saw the red mark under her sleeve. Her eyes were blurred with tears: "Miss, you have suffered."

Changhe: "Ahem."

Zhao Mingzhu pulled down her sleeves and scratched her head about this: "It's okay, actually."

Qiao'er was secretly complaining in her heart, how could it be okay? But she didn't dare to say anything presumptuous and could only remain silent.

When the two returned to the main courtyard, Gu Qingheng was sitting under the window playing chess with her. Qiao'er felt scared when she saw him and couldn't help shivering.

The appearance of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that day was so terrifying that she had nightmares all night long.

At this time, Changhe knocked on the door and said, "Your Highness, the Lord of Chuncheng has come with an invitation to you and the Crown Princess to a banquet."

Gu Qingheng nodded after hearing this and said, "I'll be leaving later."

The main purpose of coming to Chuncheng this time was to find Zhao Mingzhu, but since I was already here, I couldn't help but inspect the people's conditions.

He said to Qiao'er, "Dress up the Crown Princess."

Qiao'er nodded tremblingly: "Yes, Your Highness."

Gu Qingheng left, and Qiao'er kept looking back. Zhao Mingzhu laughed at this and said, "Even after he left, you're still so scared?"

Qiao Er knew that there must be someone guarding the door, so she said:

"No, Your Highness is a kind master." But the hand holding the comb was shaking.

Zhao Mingzhu was about to comfort her, but when Qiao'er reached out to take Yingluo, a small piece of paper fell into her hand.

Zhao Mingzhu was stunned. She looked at Qiao'er with flickering eyes and nodded.

Zhao Mingzhu put the paper ball away and said calmly:

"I don't like this lake blue. Go get that pomegranate red one and change it for me."

Qiao'er went to get the pomegranate red skirt as she was told, and then the two of them went behind the dressing screen.

Zhao Mingzhu opened the paper ball, looked at it and put it away.

"Ayu secretly gave it to me last night."

On the note, Daniu said he would find a suitable time to rescue her.

At this time, there were footsteps outside the door, and Zhao Mingzhu put the food in her mouth and swallowed it.

She kicked the hem of her skirt: "Isn't this color too bright? It makes me look like a demon concubine."

She spoke and then walked out from behind the screen.

"Hey, why is it you?"

Feichan was standing in front of the antique display cabinet. When she heard what Zhao Mingzhu said, she turned around with a smile.

"That's me, beautiful sister. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was talking to my father in the front yard, so I slipped in the back to play with you."

Fei Chan said as she walked up to Zhao Mingzhu, her eyes full of amazement: "Beautiful sister, you are simply a fairy from heaven."

Wow, why should she be punished like this?

I actually fell in love with the faces of a couple.

Her father said that no matter how much she served the couple like a slave, they would not be moved, so she should give up as soon as possible.

Feichan walked over and took the initiative to tie up Zhao Mingzhu's hair. She inserted the three-legged phoenix crown into the center of her hair.

The person in the bronze mirror is bright and elegant, with pearls washing away the moonlight.

"Beautiful sister, would you like me to kiss you?" Fei Chan suddenly said.

Zhao Mingzhu looked at Feichan through the bronze mirror and could basically confirm that she was in the late stage of appearance obsession.

"cannot."

Feichan was disappointed, but the next moment she saw Zhao Mingzhu pull her hand over and lower his head to touch the back of her hand lightly.

Feichan opened her mouth wide, grabbed her wrist and spun around, feeling so happy!

Zhao Mingzhu looked at her with amusement: "Is it really necessary to be so excited?"

Feichan said happily: "Of course, I will remember this moment for the rest of my life."

"Lies." Zhao Mingzhu pointed out their nature of being obsessed with looks.

"When you meet someone worse than me, you'll forget about it the moment you turn around."

After hearing this, Fei Chan said righteously, "It took me so many years to meet you, my beautiful sister. I might not be able to meet you again until I'm in my forties. By then, even if I want to, you'll be disgusted by my old age and won't even get close to me, let alone kiss the back of my hand."

So Zhao Mingzhu wanted to savor this kiss before she died.

"That's right."

Fei Chan stopped talking nonsense and winked at Zhao Mingzhu, saying, "I came here to pass on some information to my beautiful sister."

Zhao Mingzhu expressed his wish to hear the details.

Feichan leaned close to her and whispered a few words.

Zhao Mingzhu was surprised after hearing this, then smiled and said, "I understand."

Feichan finished what she needed to do, and she skipped away.

Before leaving, he turned back and blinked: "Beautiful sister, you must come to the banquet."

Zhao Mingzhu nodded.

Even if she didn't want to go, Gu Qingheng would definitely tie her to his belt and take her with him.
