Chapter 396: Birds of a feather



"I want this maid, you should have no objection, right?" Shen Aojun looked down at everyone, and everyone looked at each other. Then he handed the woman over and ran away.

"Tsk, I thought she was so capable." Gu Yunru sniffed, walked forward and pushed the woman's black hair back, only to find that it was Shu'er.

"Shu'er, how could it be..." Gu Yunru was stunned and stared at her intently. Then he took her to the mansion and asked someone to help her wash and dress up.

"Now you can tell me why you were caught again, right?"

At this time, Shen Aojun also asked someone to bring some medicine for abrasions to look at her injuries and apply the medicine to her personally.

"When I... returned to the foreign country, I found that it was also in the midst of a civil war, so I ran back from the west slope on the east side, but unexpectedly I was captured as a spy, so..." Shu'er talked about his experience at that time. He was captured before he could go back.

In this way, it can be considered as her bad luck. Gu Yunru nodded thoughtfully, staring at her pretty face and said: "So your master and the person who controls you should be Miao Xiang, right?"

"Yeah." Hearing Shu'er's answer, Shen Aojun's hand trembled unconsciously and accidentally touched her wound. Shu'er took a breath in pain and retracted her hand.

"Sorry, I didn't mean it..." Shen Aojun put the potion into the box, looked at Shu'er's complicated emotions, and said, "Why do you want to help those monsters from a foreign country and deal with your own parents and sisters?"

"I..." Shu'er didn't know how to explain for a moment. She lowered her head with a guilty conscience, as if thinking of some words to show her innocence. Gu Yunru saw through her inner thoughts at a glance and gently tapped her fingers on the table, "I really thought I had foreign blood, but I didn't know I was being used by others."

"What...you said I'm not a foreigner at all?" Shu'er was shocked as if struck by lightning, staring at her intently. Gu Yunru took a deep breath, raised his head and looked out the door, "What do you think?"

"Impossible. My master wouldn't lie to me. Why would she lie to me?"

Shu'er grew up in a foreign country, and she already has foreign ideas in her bones. Seeing that she is still stubborn, Gu Yunru couldn't help but sneer and say: "Miao Xiang took advantage of this point of yours, so she sent you to Ziqiao and Tianya, hoping to use you to cause some trouble for the royal family. I didn't expect you to live up to everyone's expectations."

"Axin..." Shen Aojun didn't want her to continue talking. The location for Ziqiao and Tingya's tomb had already been chosen.

"I don't need to tell you, this girl will understand sooner or later that you are the real Princess Dongping. Don't listen to the brainwashing words of Miao Xiang. She just wants to control your mind." Gu Yunru dissected the real information to her without any hesitation. She knew that if she knew the truth, she would regret it for the rest of her life.

"I don't believe what you said is true. What if you are lying to me..."

Shu'er shook her head in confusion, not daring to believe that what the two people said was true.

"Whether it's true or not, you can go and ask Miao Xiang in person, but I advise you not to be stupid at this time." Gu Yunru saw it very clearly. If he went to a foreign country at this time, it would be simply an act of asking for his death.

"I want to know where my mother's grave is..." Shu'er felt a lump in her throat and took a deep breath. She didn't expect to do such a stupid thing. She would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.

"I'll take you there another day." Shen Aojun said, thinking that this was all a misunderstanding, and misunderstandings would always be resolved. After a day of wandering outside the palace, the little mouse urged to go back. Gu Yunru brought a few sesame cakes and looked at the little mouse beside him and said, "Little mouse, what do you think will be the content of today's garden party?"

"They are all ladies from noble families and royal nobles." Hao Lu said respectfully, even with a hint of a eunuch in his tone.

"Oh, it's a good thing I didn't go. What if I became the target of public criticism again? What should I do?" Gu Yunru said to herself. As soon as she entered the palace gate and turned into a corridor, she ran into a huge team. It was the emperor who was the first to return to the palace.

"Your Highness, long live the emperor..." The little mouse had good eyesight and immediately knelt down swiftly, which once again made Gu Yunru think that he had the potential to be a eunuch.

"Did Your Majesty have a good time at the garden party?" Gu Yunru gave the emperor a calm smile. Having stood him up today, she didn't know what the emperor would think.

"Fortunately, we have beauties and good wine, but I feel like something is missing." The emperor said with his hands behind his back, his posture was exactly the same as Rong Zhen's.

"The emperor has almost recovered from his illness in recent days. I think it's time for me to leave." Gu Yunru's eyes rolled and he immediately thought of a solution. Instead of staying in the palace and letting people make sarcastic remarks, it would be better for him to leave on his own initiative.

"Are you leaving?" There was reluctance in the emperor's eyes. His deep tiger-like pupils stared at her, making people's scalps numb. Gu Yunru frowned and subconsciously took a step back.

"Yes, all good things must come to an end. Besides, I don't belong to the palace." Gu Yunru lowered her head with a guilty conscience. If the emperor continued to stare at her like this, she would have no power to resist...

"Royal brother!" It was Rong Zhen's voice. As expected, a dark green figure was seen walking from behind.

"You're here, but it's a pity that you missed today's garden party." The emperor saw Rong Zhen laughing heartily, which shows how deep the relationship between the two brothers is.

"Brother Emperor, this time I came to the palace to ask you for someone." Rong Zhen took the lead and spoke directly to the emperor with a sharp look in his eyes. Gu Yunru bit the dead skin on his lips.

"Who is it? Just tell me." The emperor looked at him with interest. The relationship between the two brothers was so deep that there was no need to say more.

"It's this Miss Ah Xin." Rong Zhen shifted his gaze to Gu Yunru beside him. Her identity has not been announced yet, so for now he can only call her Ah Xin.

When this request was made, Gu Yunru subconsciously glanced at the emperor's face, which seemed not very good. Would the two brothers want to fight for a weak woman like her? "Ahem, your Majesty, this is the case. The prince always has some back pain or bruises and sprains when he returns from the battlefield. I can take care of the prince all the time when I go to the palace." Gu Yunru's eyes turned, and she came up with a good excuse. The emperor was relieved.
