Today, even in casual clothes, Gu Chengyu exudes a noble demeanor and looks handsome and elegant, like a piece of lost jade. He stands in the bright sunlight, looking at the mother and daughter of the Zhao family.
It was like seeing my hometown after a long absence, and it felt especially familiar.
"Oh my God, it's really A Yu... No, His Royal Highness Prince Yu," Old Mrs. Zhao hurriedly saluted.
Gu Chengyu stopped him and said, "Your Majesty is traveling incognito, so there's no need for this. Please, I just happen to have something to ask for advice from the Zhao family's Tao Yu."
It took Zhao Taoyin a long time to react. The prince who had been saved by their family really appeared again. He nodded hurriedly. After all, their family owed Prince Yu a big favor.
If Prince Yu had not interfered in the palace last time, I'm afraid their family's secret recipe would have been eradicated by Princess Anyang and his husband.
There's nothing they can do about it. They are just ordinary people with no power or influence, and they are not worthy of enjoying any good things. But if they had someone in the court, it would be different.
"Thank you for your help that time, Your Highness."
The three of them sat down in the teahouse. Now, the people around Gu Chengyu were all low-key and polite. Even Zhao Erzhu soon showed up.
It turns out that he is one of the guards responsible for Gu Chengyu's safety this time.
"Mother, sister..."
"You little brat, you got promoted again?" Old Mrs. Zhao asked in surprise.
"It's not a promotion, it's just that Your Highness gave me some help," Zhao Erzhu said embarrassedly.
"You don't have to thank me. If anyone wants to thank someone, it should be the king who thanks you. Besides, you didn't want the reward that day, didn't you just want this care?" Gu Chengyu said.
Everyone nodded, and Zhao Taoyin also felt that it would be pointless to thank everyone over and over again.
Then he said, "I wonder if Prince Yu suddenly came to Zuozhou Prefecture. Is there anything urgent? If you need any help, my Zhao family will definitely do our best."
Gu Chengyu looked at Zhao Taoyin. He was not used to her politeness now. He still liked the Zhao Taoyin who talked nonsense to him and was very excited that day.
He drank some water, concealing his inner thoughts, and said, "The reason I came to Zuozhou Prefecture this time is actually to find you. The purpose of this trip is also to protect your Zhao family."
"oh?"
Zhao Taoqi showed a puzzled expression.
Gu Chengyu continued, "Zhao Taoqian, if the King asked for your secret recipe for making porcelain, would you give it to him?"
"Why not? Of course, if Your Highness wants it, I will offer it to you with both hands."
Zhao Taoyin said directly.
Gu Chengyu never dreamed that Zhao Taoyin would agree so readily, even if she hesitated for a moment. Zhao Taoyin's character once again made him feel slightly inferior.
However, if Zhao Taoqin knew what Gu Chengyu was thinking, he would probably just smile indifferently and say, "No, I have a lot of secret recipes. If you want one, I'll give it to you. But you have to remember the favor."
Of course, Gu Chengyu couldn't hear what Zhao Taoyin was thinking.
Therefore, Gu Chengyu admired Zhao Taoyin very much.
"Are you so willing? After all, that's your hard work," Gu Chengyu asked.
Zhao Taoqin couldn't hold back this time. She smiled faintly and said, "This is my hard work. I am too weak, and Hexi Village is too weak. We may not be able to keep this good thing. We only seek wealth, nothing else. If this secret recipe is handed over to Princess Anyang's husband, I might be reluctant. Your Highness is a man of noble character, and I am happy to accept it."
Gu Chengyu: She praised me.
"You're fine."
This was Gu Chengyu's evaluation of her.
Zhao Taoqin didn't know how to respond. After all, he had always been humble and polite when he heard people praising him in the past. This was the first time someone directly said that he was very good.
So she said, "Your Highness is also very good."
Thus, a situation in which both of them were happy was achieved.
