Gu Junyao had tears in her eyes and was determined to prove her innocence.

"Really? Then apply the remaining half bottle on your face."

As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell silent. Gu's father wanted to plead for his daughter. If Jun Yao really did it, he would never be able to clear himself even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"Your Highness, do you really believe what this girl says?" Gu Junyao looked at Rong Zhen with a face full of grievance, but Rong Zhen didn't even look at her. His eyes were only on Gu Yunru lying on the bed.

"Do it quickly."

Gu Junyue was also frightened by his tone. She shook her head at the crying Gu Jun and picked up the half bottle of hibiscus cream that had fallen on the ground. Seeing this, Qingxing directly snatched the hibiscus cream, poured it into her hand, and began to apply it on her face.

"This is what the second young lady prepared for the eldest young lady. Second young lady, enjoy it too." Qing Xing said as she smeared the half bottle of hibiscus cream on her face. Sure enough, within half an hour, small pimples began to appear on her face. Gu Junyao felt itchy on her face, but no one in the room dared to plead for her.

"Your Highness, please spare Jun Yao..." Gu Jun Yao fell to her knees on the ground with a plop. When Father Gu saw this, he understood what was going on. He didn't expect that this second girl had been so cruel.

"Gu Changan!"

Father Gu was so frightened that he lost his soul and kept saying, "Your Majesty, I am here."

"How do you think this matter should be handled properly?"

There was a strong threat in Rong Zhen's words. Gu's father wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Gu Junyue wanted to plead for Gu Junyao, but seeing the prince here, he couldn't say anything.

"How could you, a little girl, harm your own sister? Well, I'll send you to Qingping Temple to reflect on your actions!"

Gu's father could not bear to punish him too severely. Qingping Temple was several days and nights away from the capital. It was a place where nuns ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhist scriptures. There were no houses nearby and it was very remote. If he was sent there, who knows what kind of hard life he would have to live.

"Dad, no, don't. When has Yao'er ever left your knees? Yao'er doesn't want to go so far." Gu Junyao lowered her head and hugged his thighs, saying that she didn't want to go there no matter what.

Rong Zhen knew that Gu's father was intentionally covering up for him, but he was too lazy to argue with them.

"This king does not want to hear any noisy sounds."

Father Gu knew that the prince was urging him, so he said to Gu Junyao in a good tone, "Yao'er, be obedient. Although Qingping Temple is a little remote, it is better than being punished by the prince himself."

Father Gu lowered his voice very low, and Gu Junyue also advised: "Yes, sister, you go to Qingping Temple first, anyway, you can come back soon."

Gu Junyao bit her lips so hard that they almost bled. She stared at the person lying on the bed and clenched her fists. She secretly swore in her heart that if she came back, she would teach her a lesson.

In this way, Gu Junyao was sent to Qingping Temple and was not allowed to return to Beijing without orders.

Rong Zhen asked all the servants in the room to leave, and the huge room became very quiet.

"Ahem." Gu Yunru opened her eyes with some effort, but she didn't expect to see Rong Zhen as soon as she opened her eyes.

"You finally woke up."

Rong Zhen said calmly beside her.

"Your Highness, Yunru is very ugly now and I don't want others to see her." Gu Yunru turned her head away. She must look very ugly like this.

"There's no one else here. Let me see what's going on." Rong Zhen didn't show any disgust at all.

"But the prince called me ugly last time." Gu Yunru has always kept this account in mind. Rong Zhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He tucked the quilt for her and said, "Isn't that what you want?"

Gu Yunru suddenly reacted when he heard this. It turned out that he had known from the beginning that the man had used self-mutilation to get away with it last time.

"You...know?"

"certainly."

Gu Yunru breathed a sigh of relief. If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have tried so hard.

"But my face is really ruined now. If you dislike it, just say it earlier." Gu Yunru didn't have confidence in the first place, and Rong Zhen slowly pursed his lips, looking serious.

"Don't worry, no matter what you look like, I will never abandon you."

It would be a lie to say that she wasn't touched after hearing this, Gu Yunru blinked at him.

On the other side of the screen, Mrs. Gu learned that her daughter was sent to the poor Qingping Temple, and she kept complaining to her father.

"How could you send your daughter to a place like that?!" Madam Gu covered her face and cried sadly. Her daughter had grown up in the Gu Mansion. When had she ever suffered such hardship? "You don't know, if I didn't send my daughter to Qingping Temple, the prince would probably take Jun Yao away and torture her in any way."

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and insisted on sending his daughter to Qingping Temple, otherwise the torture she suffered might have been even greater than this.

Gu Junyue comforted Madam Gu and said, "Mom, Dad, there was really no other way at the time. You don't know how hateful Gu Yunru is. She actually pushed all this onto my sister. My sister is so innocent."

"This damned Gu Yunru is Jun Yao's nemesis!"

Madam Gu was crying and shouting. Father Gu was afraid that someone might hear her, so he quickly covered her mouth and said, "Madam, please stop talking. This situation shows how much the prince cares about Yunru."

Yes, the prince actually cared about her so much that he rushed over immediately as soon as he heard the slightest news.

Mrs. Gu was heartbroken and was thinking about sending her daughter off for the last time, but she didn't expect that the servant had already sent her away.

It was already the next morning when they arrived at Qingping Temple. Gu Junyao was exhausted from the long journey and vomited until she was unconscious. Seeing such a desolate place and a small temple, she felt hopeless.

There was a lot of dust on the gate, and it looked like it had been in disrepair for a long time. Two nuns walked up to her, put their hands together and said, "Amitabha, you must be Miss Gu, right?"

Gu Junyao only brought a personal maid, Lan'er, with her on this training trip. The carriage left after dropping her off here. Even the luggage in the carriage had to be carried by Lan'er alone. The prince had instructed that Gu Junyao could only bring a personal maid, and not even servants.

"That's right. I'm a little tired. I wonder if the nuns have cleaned up the rooms yet."

After Gu Junyao said this, she observed their expressions and found that they were all trying hard to hold back their laughter and looked sarcastic.

"What are you laughing at? I'm here to practice, how dare you make fun of me!"

Lan Er walked up to them and said, "You nuns are too ungrateful. Is this how you treat our young lady in a small, run-down courtyard of Qingping Temple?"
