Chapter 19 A sudden downturn
Seeing this, Xiao Mingzheng remained silent, only glancing at Zhong Min once more, as if weighing something. Indeed, no matter what, he couldn't easily believe what Zhong Min said, but he had a very strange feeling that this matter might be far more complicated than he could imagine.
However, he did not pause for long. After a moment, he glanced at Luo Jiaxing, made a slight gesture and said, "Find her a new place. The rest is up to you."
After saying that, without waiting for Luo Jiaxing's response, Xiao Mingzheng stood up and strode away with the others, disappearing as quickly as a gust of wind.
Soon, only Luo Jiaxing and Zhong Min were left in the room. Even the guards who had been guarding the door were withdrawn. Seeing this, Zhong Min sighed helplessly and said to Luo Jiaxing, "General Luo, please give us a quick death. Let's go!"
Words couldn't describe her feelings at that moment. The indescribable feeling made her want to jump up and curse, to vent her emotions. However, she knew that no matter how hard she tried, it would be futile, just like how she couldn't change the outcome just now.
But she felt deeply resentful. Was this inexplicable time travel and rebirth a fate destined for her to be tortured and die again? If she could return to the present, to her original world, that would be fine. But the question was, would she ever be so lucky? This damned time travel, this unfortunate rebirth, who had she offended to endure such cruel treatment?
Seeing Zhong Min's complicated and depressed mood at this time, Luo Jiaxing was stunned for a moment. Sui Ji didn't say anything. He nodded and took Zhong Min out.
Zhong Min followed Luo Jiaxing, not knowing exactly where the prison was located. However, it looked as if it were inside the palace. After walking for a while, Zhong Min felt something was getting off-base. He couldn't help but ask Luo Jiaxing, who was leading the way, "General Luo, where exactly is the prison located?"
"You'll know when you get there." Luo Jiaxing didn't stop or look back. He just responded simply and continued walking forward.
Seeing this, Zhong Min didn't want to ask any more questions, so he just followed behind, but he was becoming more and more confused. After walking for a while, they finally stopped in an ordinary courtyard in the palace.
"General Luo, is this a prison cell?" Zhong Min was astonished. Could it be that Prince Mu's mansion was so special that even the inscriptions were different from other places? Judging from the quality, it didn't seem like it at all.
"Who said they were taking you to the cell?" Luo Jiaxing finally couldn't help but laugh at Zhong Min: "From the beginning to the end, no one said they were taking you to the cell!"
"Ah?" Zhong Min was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then asked, "Then what did the prince just do..."
"The prince only said he would relocate you. You misunderstood." Luo Jiaxing shook his head and said with a smile, "Don't worry, the prince is a man of his words. Yesterday he promised to reward you, and he won't break his promise no matter what. Otherwise, how could he lead the army? Before, it was just a test. After all..."
"After all, there are indeed too many suspicious things about me, right?" Zhong Min took over the conversation, patted his chest and then took a long breath. At this moment, he actually felt like he had escaped death, and he felt a little regretful when he thought about it.
Seeing Zhong Min's expression at this moment, Luo Jiaxing couldn't help but laugh and said, "I really thought you were fearless, but I didn't expect you would be afraid sometimes."
"Of course. Who isn't afraid of death?" Zhong Min chuckled. "I've saved my life for now, which is something to celebrate."
Hearing Zhong Min's words, the smile on Luo Jiaxing's face gradually disappeared, and then he said seriously: "This is good for the time being. If you want to save your life in the future, you must not do anything inappropriate, otherwise the prince will not give you any chance again."
"Zhong Min understands. Thank you, General Luo, for reminding me." Seeing this, Zhong Min nodded seriously, and then said, "By the way, General Luo, why did you bring me here?"
Luo Jiaxing did not answer immediately, but shouted into the house: "Someone come!"
Soon, two women in their forties came out. Seeing Luo Jiaxing and Zhong Min in the courtyard, they hurried over, saluted Luo Jiaxing, and asked, "What are your instructions, General?"
"I've sent someone here for you. You can call her Zhong Min from now on. In three days, teach her the palace's rules and etiquette from scratch. The prince has ordered that she must become a qualified maid!" Luo Jiaxing instructed the two maids, "After three days, send her to Mo Garden to serve. Do you understand?"
"I understand!" The two maids answered in unison, then secretly looked up at Zhong Min, only to find that this woman looked very familiar, as if she was the maid serving beside Concubine Zheng. However, at this time, the two did not dare to ask more questions.
Seeing that Zhong Min's affairs had been arranged, Luo Jiaxing turned to look at Zhong Min and finally said to her, "If you have any questions, just ask them. I also have a piece of personal advice. Since you helped me yesterday, I'm giving it to you for free."
"What?" Zhong Min couldn't guess, so he just asked directly.
Luo Jiaxing smiled again, his handsome features looking even more delicate. He said meaningfully, "Women, it's better to be a little dumber. Otherwise, you should just use your intelligence to the fullest. That way, perhaps your future will be much easier."
After saying this, Luo Jiaxing didn't care whether Zhong Min understood or not. He turned around and left without looking back.
Zhong Min looked at Luo Jiaxing's back as he left, and silently repeated what he had just said in her heart. However, she really couldn't guess why Luo Jiaxing gave her such advice for the time being.
"Don't look, everyone has left!"
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a laughing voice beside me: "Hey, isn't this Jin'er who was beside Empress Zheng? How come she's changed her appearance in just a few days? Not only has her name changed to Zhong Min, but she's also being promoted to work in Mo Garden?"
Hearing this, Zhong Min immediately came to her senses and asked with a hint of curiosity, "Mammy, what is Mo Garden?"
"No way? How come you don't even know where Mo Garden is?" The nanny said in disbelief, "Don't tell me you broke your head and don't remember anything."
Hearing this, Zhong Min couldn't help but laugh. She spread her hands in her signature way and said helplessly, "Mammy, you're right. I fell a few days ago and didn't remember anything after waking up from a coma."
When the two maids heard this, they were stunned for a moment. After looking at each other, they didn't say anything more.
