Chapter 107 Then Zhao Mingzhu will run away
In front of the Changle Palace, An Yun walked in and out. Under the gaze of the palace maid, she said nonchalantly: "It's okay, there's no need to look for your princess. I'll go back first."
She thought about it all night and couldn't understand why Mingzhu faked her death.
She couldn't figure it out, so she wanted to ask Gu Yu, but then she thought again, Mingzhu's fake death this time was no trivial matter, she trusted herself, and she couldn't be the one to leak the information.
The more An Yun thought about it, the more she realized this was true, and then she prepared to leave.
When she turned around, she ran into Gu Yu. Seeing the surprise on her face, Gu Yu said, "I've been standing behind you for a long time, and you only noticed it now. What are you thinking?"
After hearing this, An Yun wondered why the palace maid was so obedient, it turned out that she was right behind her.
"Haha, I just thought of you last night and came to see you."
After hearing this, Gu Yu stepped inside and asked, "Didn't we just meet at the academy yesterday? You missed me after you got home? Are you in love with me?"
An Yun was speechless after hearing this: "No."
Gu Yu didn't hear the footsteps, and saw her standing outside the door:
"Come in and tell me why you miss me and what you are thinking about."
An Yun: ...
She could only follow in with gritted teeth and quickly make up excuses in her mind.
When they arrived at the bedroom, Gu Yu waved to the palace maids to leave, then patted the bed to signal An Yun to sit down. She said lazily:
"Go ahead, I'm listening."
After An Yun sat down, she paused and said, "When I saw the moon, I thought of Mingzhu, and then I thought of you."
She didn't lie, it was the truth.
After hearing this, Gu Yu put his hand on his chin and looked at An Yun, and suddenly said:
"Does your arm itch? Why do you keep scratching it?"
An Yun realized it later and looked down. Sure enough, she saw that her right hand was scratching her arm unconsciously, and then she moved her hand away.
He gave a dry smile, feeling a little guilty.
"I guess it was crawled by bugs. I didn't even notice it myself."
"Anzi." Gu Yu changed her hand to support her chin, and she suddenly smiled:
"Are you hiding something from me?"
An Yun's heart tightened. Was Gu Yu always this perceptive? Or was her acting so poor that he could see through her at a glance?
"No, what could happen to me? Gu Yu, you are too suspicious."
Gu Yu did not comment on this. She stood up and poured a cup of scented tea for An Yun, watching her drink the tea.
"Is it related to Zhao Mingzhu?"
"Cough cough...cough cough." An Yun choked on the food after only two sips.
Seeing this, Gu Yu threw a handkerchief and said something shocking:
"She left something for you, and you discovered it, so you wanted to come find me, right?"
An Yun was dumbfounded after hearing this. Her tongue and teeth were fighting and she couldn't speak for a long time.
Gu Yu looked at An Yun with a look that said, "You don't have to lie, I can see it."
An Yun held the teacup and lowered her head in silence.
Then he realized why Gu Yu was so calm?
If it was Gu Yu who came to tell her today that Mingzhu was not dead, she might have jumped up and asked at this moment.
"Gu Yu, do you know something?" An Yun asked after struggling for a while.
Gu Yu readily admitted: "Zhao Mingzhu is not dead, I know."
An Yun looked dazed at this moment. She knew, but how could she know? Could it be that Mingzhu also left a message for her?
Gu Yu seemed to understand An Yun's thoughts and said calmly:
"She came to me before and said something that seemed to make sense, but then I thought about it for a long time and felt that someone like her wouldn't die so easily. Seeing you like this today, I'm even more certain."
After thinking it through, she was not so sad anymore, but Zhao Mingzhu's escape by pretending to be dead was a big deal that implicated many people. If An Yun didn't come to find her, she wouldn't say much.
After hearing this, An Yun knew there was no need to hide anything, so she handed the note to Gu Yu:
"Leave the pearl to me."
Gu Yu took a look at it, then folded it up and burned it: "It's very good, Anzi, you can rest assured now."
An Yun was not relieved, she felt a little melancholy:
"But why did Mingzhu abandon everything and go away alone?"
She was born and raised in the capital, so where could she go after leaving? When would they meet again?
What could make her give up her family, friends, identity and everything and live in anonymity?
The more An Yun thought about it, the more confused she became. She clenched her right fist and smashed it against her left palm.
"Is she having someone else outside? That enchantress seduced her, and Mingzhu was bewitched into doing something like this?!"
An Yun felt that she had been deceived, especially since Zhao Mingzhu had been blinded by love for Gu Xun. Although she had stopped herself later, it was possible that she would make the same mistake again.
Gu Yu rolled his eyes after hearing this: "She's not that demented, don't worry about that."
In her opinion, Zhao Mingzhu appears confused on the outside but is clear-headed on the inside.
"Then what is it all for?" An Yun was extremely anxious and asked Gu Yu.
Gu Yu poured himself a glass of water and asked An Yun:
"Under what circumstances would you do this, Anzi?"
I want nothing, I have to lose everything, and I have to run away.
An Yun thought for a moment and said, "If I don't run away now, I'll be dead."
"But Mingzhu behaved well and honestly afterwards. She didn't get into any trouble, did she?"
She can testify to this point. Zhao Mingzhu is a good person now. At most, she just skips school.
Gu Yu said: "Maybe she just didn't tell us, Anzi, since she made this choice, she must have sufficient reasons and must have thought through the consequences."
"We just need to support her and ask the rest when we meet in person later."
After hearing this, An Yun also felt that what Gu Yu said was indeed very reasonable. The huge stone in her heart fell to the ground, and now her brows were full of relief.
"You're right. Then I'll pretend I don't know anything and wait for Mingzhu to contact us."
An Yun stood up and stretched, but was caught by Gu Yu and pressed against the dressing table.
"Anzi, when you return home, take a month off and stay home well so that no one else notices anything unusual."
An Yun was more calm than them. Gu Yu picked up the black powder and dabbed it under her eyes, and An Yun instantly became much more listless.
"My royal brother is a man who can unravel any clue and find the flaw."
An Yun listened in confusion. She asked, "Gu Yu, you actually helped Mingzhu instead of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Gu Yu pinched her face and looked at her from left to right: "I will help whoever I like."
After hearing this, An Yun gave a thumbs up: "What a guy who helps his relatives but not his wife."
After sending An Yun away, Gu Yu returned to the bedroom. Feicui came in and helped her wash and dress.
But when the delicate makeup faded, there were dark circles under Gu Yu's eyes and her eye sockets were slightly sunken.
"Princess, you haven't slept well for the past few nights. You shouldn't go to the academy from now on."
Gu Yuqing: "Yes, she went because An Yun was still there. Now that she is staying at home, there is no need for her to go."
Her thoughts drifted away. It was good that Zhao Mingzhu left the capital. Her royal brother also needed a lesson.
Not everything in this world can be controlled. After this time, he will always be nervous and cherish everything.
If he didn't do so, Zhao Mingzhu would have run away even more.
