Although her jade beads could beautify her skin, they couldn't withstand Gu Xin's daily exposure to the scorching sun, and Gu Xin wasn't as fair-skinned as she used to be.
Even so, when she walked in from the doorway after washing herself clean, dressed in white, she still amazed Helian Yi.
It's her, it's definitely her.
The small face and those calm eyes he saw at the Cloud Sea camp last night.
Gu Xin walked up to Helian Yi and waved her hand: "Prince Helian, don't stare like that. Let's not judge a book by its cover, and don't act like you've never seen a pretty girl before. You're so handsome, did you see me staring at you like that?"
Helian Yi looked away somewhat awkwardly: "I apologize, Your Highness, I was momentarily distracted."
Gu Xin sat down gracefully: "It's alright, we just met, I understand. Eat up, eat up, your injury is quite serious, eat something and go back to rest, we still have two days of travel ahead!"
Helian Yi nodded and urged them to eat.
...
At this moment, in Liangjing Kingdom, Lu Zheng and Queen Yunhai had arrived at the royal city. They were unaware that the eldest prince of Yunhai had already sacrificed himself on the battlefield.
Queen Yunhai is still debating whether to snatch her daughter back directly or do so secretly.
As a result, they were already being watched as soon as they entered the city.
King Liangjing sent people to fetch them to the palace.
Queen Yunhai was certainly bold enough to become the mistress of the first tribe in the west, and she led her subordinates to follow her there.
Lu Zheng walked at the very back, keeping a very low profile.
After entering Liangjing Palace, Lu Zheng, given his status, was not qualified to accompany Queen Yunhai into the inner hall, so he waited outside.
He looked at the servants in Liangjing Palace, secretly observing their every word and action. And he had to admit, this place was much better managed than the Yunhai Tribe.
Soon, Queen Yunhai shouted, and the people around Lu Zheng fell to the ground.
He couldn't just collapse suddenly, so he collapsed too, and then closed his eyes.
Before long, someone came out and ordered the surrounding servants to take Lu Zheng and all the people brought by Queen Yunhai to the prison.
Lu Zheng: "..."
It seems that Liangjing Kingdom is not as weak as everyone knows. No wonder they dared to send people to kidnap the Seventh Princess.
From this perspective, Yunhai Wang's decision to send troops to Gorz was a complete mistake; he saved his son but sacrificed his wife and daughter.
At this moment, Lu Zheng was unaware that the King of Yunhai's decision had even cost him his son, and that the eldest prince was already dead.
Everyone around him was poisoned, and Lu Zheng didn't know how they were poisoned, or why he didn't feel anything.
Anyway, he automatically assumes that Gu Xin is a master of both medicine and poison if he can't figure it out. "My Xin Xin is more poisonous than you. You want to poison me? That's hilarious."
However, even while being transported, he was still thinking about how to escape.
In any case, they can't escape immediately. Queen Yunhai has brought troops with her. Who knows if the mother and daughter have a chance to turn the tables?
I'll just focus on saving my own life and wait for the outcome for the mother and daughter!
If they were all dead, he would naturally flee back. In the past few months, he had caused trouble and ruined several of the Yunhai King's adult princes, and had offended their maternal families to the core. If the Yunhai Queen and the princess were both finished, then only the eldest prince and the Yunhai King would remain. He thought he could go back and report back.
Of course, if the mother and daughter were alive, he would have to continue to sneak back with them and make the Yunhai tribe even more chaotic.
Lu Zheng silently prayed that Liang Jingguo would be more cooperative.
