"Mother, I asked someone to find out recently and found that Prince Zhao's temper has improved a lot, and he speaks softly to the servants. It seems that Gu Yunru's efforts these days have paid off. Those who plant trees will enjoy the shade. Let your daughter enjoy this good thing."

"Are you really not afraid of King Zhao?"

Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter and her attitude became a little coquettish again.

"Mother, I didn't know much about Prince Zhao before, but the last few times I saw him come to the palace, he never beat or scolded the servants. Maybe the world is prejudiced against him. I thought I might be able to influence him."

Gu Junyao is jealous of the position of princess, Gu Yunru's life or death is uncertain, and Rong Zhen has become just like a normal person. Why can't she marry him openly?

"As long as you think it through, His Royal Highness Prince Zhao is not such an unreasonable person."

Mrs. Gu looked at her with pity, while Gu Junyue, who was standing at the door, had overheard their conversation. She had never expected that her sister and mother were actually planning such a big plan.

Palace.

Rong Zhen and his men searched for another day but still couldn't find it. They returned to the mansion dejectedly, reorganized themselves a little, and prepared to leave. Qingyu opened the door and saw Rong Zhen's tired look. Without saying a word, she made a cup of tea and placed it in front of him.

"Your Majesty, you have been looking for so many days. If there is no news, forget it."

As soon as Qingyu finished speaking, she realized that the atmosphere was a little strange. It seemed that the prince was really biased towards Gu Yunru.

“Your Majesty…”

"go out."

Qingyu choked on the words and walked out feeling disappointed.

Qingfeng was about to report to the prince when he saw Qingyu's unhappy face. He walked up to her and lowered his voice and asked, "Did you say something wrong again to upset the prince?"

"Miss Gu hasn't been found yet, right?"

"Well, we arrested many people but still couldn't find out her whereabouts."

Qingfeng was also quite troubled by this matter. Since returning to Beijing, this was the first time he saw the prince lose his appetite because of a woman.

"Okay, the prince has been in a bad mood these days, so don't remember it. It's better not to hang around in front of the prince."

"Um."

Qingyu returned to the bedroom in a daze. There was another bed in the room which belonged to Qingshuang. She and Qingshuang had never gotten along well. They saw each other every day and had nothing to say to each other. But today, Qingshuang seemed a little different.

"Bitch, you tried to seduce the prince again, and got kicked out, right?" Qingshuang laughed loudly, her smug face becoming a little distorted in front of the candlelight. Qingyu was too lazy to argue with her, so she folded the quilt and lay on it.

Seeing that she had no reaction, Qing Shuang felt bored. She walked up to her and whispered, "That day, you found a letter at the door and burned it after reading it. That letter must be very important."

Qingyu felt uneasy when she heard this. She sat up straight and stared at her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? It's just... just a prank by a beggar."

"Really? If I tell the prince about this and say that you are deliberately hiding something, how do you think the prince will deal with you?"

Looking at Qingshuang's smug smile, this woman, who usually finds out her faults, must be very proud now that she has caught her weakness.

"Good sister. It's not what you think. It's really just an ordinary letter."

"Come on, you may be able to fool others with this, but you can't fool me. We have worked together in the mansion for so many years, don't I know what kind of person you are?"

Qingshuang joked and sat on the chair, taking a sip from the teacup with a leisurely look on his face.

"How on earth can you not tell the prince?"

"Listen to the tone of your words, do you sound like you are begging for help? If someone doesn't know, they would think I owe you some money."

Qingshuang raised her eyebrows, and watched Qingyu bend over and take out the silver box, and raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction.

"This is all the money I have saved since I came to the mansion. Now it all belongs to you. Are you satisfied?"

In order to make Qingshuang keep the secret, Qingyu had to hand over all his belongings. This woman was the biggest spender and liked to buy some expensive rouge and powder to decorate her face, thinking that the prince would look at her more. Unfortunately, this was just a daydream.

Qing Shuang was packing the money, raised her lips in satisfaction and said, "Don't be so nervous. Since we are all good sisters, why don't you think about how to prevent the prince from finding out about this? If Gu Yunru comes back in the future, won't you be exposed?"

"This is easy to handle. As long as you don't say anything, nothing has happened. Four days have passed, and no one knows whether Gu Yunru is alive or dead."

Qingyu had a tense face and took out all her belongings just to keep a secret. It would be a lie to say that he didn't feel sad. Looking at her arrogant face, he silently clenched his fists behind his back.

"It seems that I'm not the only one who doesn't want her to come back."

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Qing Shuang said happily and held the box in her arms. Qing Yu suppressed her anger and narrowed her eyes. She swore that she would take the money back! The next morning, Gu Yunru woke up from the stone bed, her whole body aching and her bones were about to fall apart.

"Hello, is anyone here?"

Gu Yunru looked around and saw that there was no one around. She knew that everyone was guarding outside, so she couldn't act rashly.

"What are you arguing about, you little bitch? You've ruined my beautiful dream!"

A man came in cursing, holding a spear in his hand.

"My body aches so much. Is there anything softer? If I continue sleeping with this, I'll die."

Gu Yunru couldn't imagine how they had managed to get through those few nights. These heartless guys had no idea what it meant to be gentle and considerate to women.

"It's good enough to give you a stone bed to sleep on. My brothers all sleep on the dirt floor at the door."

The man scolded her again. Gu Yunru looked at him spitting and touched her face helplessly.

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. Tell your king to come in and see me. I have something to say to him."

"Just you?"

The boy looked at her with disdain. Gu Yunru raised her head proudly and said, "Yes, it's me. After so many days, do you see him coming? This shows that I have no weight in his heart at all."

Gu Yunru was originally worried that Rong Zhen would fall into these people's trap, but now, her worries were completely unnecessary. This guy didn't care about her life or death at all.

"Okay, wait."

After about half a cup of tea, they finally saw the bandit leader. Gu Yunru stretched and said, "Look, I was right, right? So many days have passed, maybe they have forgotten me. I advise you to let me go quickly, and I can pretend that nothing happened."

Gu Yunru began the negotiations and was in torment for a long time.
