Chapter 41 Today is His Seventh Day
Under the corridor, Gu Qingheng was eating a pastry when he saw Zhao Mingzhu running out in a hurry.
Chang He held the tea and asked, "Do you want me to follow you?"
"No need." She should go find Bo Ling.
After hearing this, Changhe nodded in agreement, and his heart was filled with shock. Last night...did His Highness really get together with her?
But His Highness definitely doesn't like her. Could it be that he is willing to sacrifice himself for the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?
While he was thinking, he saw Shuangyun and frowned.
"Are you lazy all day, waiting for His Highness to come and serve you?"
Shuangyun:?
Who didn't let her get close before?
Damn it, don’t fall into the hands of that bitch Changhe!
Zhao Mingzhu stormed over to the door and said, "Open the door, profiteer! You're capable of selling drugs without any ability, but you can't open the door?!"
She waited with a ferocious expression until the door opened and she saw the tree branch: "Where is your shopkeeper?"
Seeing this, the branch said timidly: "Dead."
Zhao Mingzhu: “……?”
Shuzhi cried and said, "The shopkeeper was just too ostentatious. I don't know how he died. Today is his seventh day."
Zhao Mingzhu was filled with anger, but it seemed as if it was blocked in an instant, leaving her with nowhere to vent.
The dead are the greatest, so she could only hold her breath and ask, "...My condolences, do you know if there's any way to cure the medicine he sold me?"
Branch shook his head: "He never told me these things."
Zhao Mingzhu felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her. She felt completely chilled.
She thought that if she continued like this, she would have to celebrate the seventh day of her death sooner or later.
Shuzhi watched Zhao Mingzhu leave in a daze. He quickly closed the door and said to Bo Ling behind him:
"She's quite pitiful too."
Bo Ling swung her fan, closed it, and hit him on the forehead. "Am I not pitiful now that I'm on the seventh day of my death? Then go tell her how to resolve it. Tell her that the reason she's greedy for His Highness's body is because the mother Gu has healed in him."
Zhao Mingzhu was given two choices at the beginning. One was not to survive the wedding night.
The second option is to survive, to be on the safe side, but Zi Gu will make her subject to the control of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and use him for his own purposes.
Bo Ling recalled Zhao Mingzhu's complexion just now, and it didn't look like she had experienced the pain of a poisonous insect.
In other words, every time she fell ill, His Highness fed her blood in time.
interesting.
Zhao Mingzhu was walking down the street, kicking stones. She suddenly realized something was wrong, so she pulled Qiao'er back to the alley.
This time she didn't knock on the door, but kicked it open. Qiao'er was stunned:
"Princess, why are we kicking the door?"
"Since it's the seventh day, why don't we see any signs of funerals?"
Qiao'er opened her eyes wide: "It really is."
Zhao Mingzhu checked the yard inside and out, and found that the place where he had just been was already empty.
Zhao Mingzhu could only rage helplessly, letting out her pent-up anger and cursing in circles: "Fuck your uncle! Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!"
In the East Palace, Zhao Mingzhu rushed back and directed Jinzhu and Yinzhu:
"Go find some people, then follow Qiao'er and bring your tools to tear down the house. Don't leave a single tile or a single blade of grass behind."
Jinzhu and Yinzhu looked at each other, and seeing her serious expression they didn't dare to ask more questions. They nodded and turned around to look for someone.
Even now, Zhao Mingzhu still felt uneasy and wanted to find some trouble.
At this time, someone sneaked into the kitchen and Zhao Mingzhu followed.
Sure enough, I saw her replacing all the dishes in the lunch box and putting four bowls of rice in it.
"What are you doing?"
"Replace all the Crown Princess' dishes with rice."
"Why do you do this?"
"Trying to frame Qiao'er."
Shuangyun responded to every word. When she realized the problem, she turned around and saw Zhao Mingzhu.
"Too...Crown Princess?!"
"What on earth were you thinking, using such a trick to frame Qiao'er? Why were you so sure that I would suspect her and not you?"
Qiao'er was her maidservant who came with her as a dowry. What was the logic behind her doing this?
Shuangyun was holding the stove, and she suddenly understood what was said: "Yes."
The "yes" was really simple, and the "you are so smart" on Shuangyun's face caught Zhao Mingzhu's eyes.
"Now I finally understand why Gu Qingheng kept you."
Shuangyun asked blankly why?
Zhao Mingzhu spat out five words: "Because you are stupid."
Shuangyun's face turned red. She wanted to say that she was not stupid, but she was afraid of angering Zhao Mingzhu. After all, she had just been caught doing something bad.
"Shuangyun, I give you two choices."
"One, I will drive you back to Shoukang Palace."
"I choose two!"
Shuangyun didn't even listen to the next option and hurriedly chose it. She didn't want to go back to Shoukang Palace.
It was good in the Eastern Palace. She had no worries about food and clothing, and the Crown Princess didn't treat her harshly. She was three pounds heavier than when she first arrived.
"Princess, please be generous and don't take the villain's fault seriously. I know everything. I can write poetry, sing songs, play the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and bake pancakes."
Zhao Mingzhu: ...
She beckoned Shuangyun over and said, "From now on, you will do my homework for me and teach me the piano."
She was too ashamed to face Gu Qingheng, so in order to get through to him, Shuangyun came to teach her the piano.
…
Gu Qingheng, sitting upright in the carriage, held the spine of the book. His bony fingers looked very slender. His dark purple sleeves brushed against his face as he flipped through the pages. He listened quietly to Changhe's words.
"Because she realized she was being deceived, the Crown Princess couldn't find anyone to help her so she asked the maid to take people to tear down Fulu Hall. When I got there, only the wall was left."
Fulutang is one of Gu Qingheng's secret bases in the capital, and is personally managed by his confidant Bo Ling.
Bo Ling's mother is a Miao witch, and he is also best at using Gu.
"Your Highness, since the Crown Princess is no longer a threat, do you want Bo Ling to remove the poisonous insect?"
Gu Qingheng stared at the book, but his mind wandered.
The purpose of poisoning Zhao Mingzhu's wine was to control her, but she revealed everything unexpectedly.
Instead, the insect loses its effect of making her obedient.
He should remove the Gu, but he couldn't help but think of Zhao Mingzhu hugging his neck last night and looking at her with a bright smile.
"Let Bo Ling come to the East Palace to see me."
Changhe nodded after hearing this: "Yes."
In the academy, Zhao Mingzhu sat down and saw that An Yun had not arrived yet. She turned to look at Gu Yu:
"You're here, why isn't Anzi here yet?"
Gu Yu was obviously worried. She replied a little slowly, "It must be because Master An is going to the Bai family to cancel the engagement today."
At this time, Teacher Lin Di came with the homework. He asked Zhao Mingzhu and Su Lu to go on the stage together to solve the problem.
Zhao Mingzhu was thinking about An Yun's breaking off of the engagement, so she quickly calculated and told Master Lin the answer.
Lin Dishi was surprised and said, "So fast, less than half a cup of tea."
Zhao Mingzhu nodded: "This question is not very difficult." Chickens and rabbits in the same cage, she has solved too many similar questions.
Although Lin Dishi was suspicious, he still let her go. The last time she skipped class and answered the questions correctly, he thought she had copied them from Princess Zhaohua.
That's why Zhao Mingzhu was called to the stage. Unexpectedly, she really could do it. Soon, Master Lin felt relieved. It was a good thing that the child became smarter as he grew up.
Hearing Zhao Mingzhu say that it was not very difficult, Su Lu bit her lower lip and hurriedly wrote down the result. She was actually slower than Zhao Mingzhu.
She also did not miss the joy in Master Lin's eyes and felt sad in her heart. She worked so hard but rarely saw Master Lin show any appreciation.
Lin Dishi took a look and said: "Correct, you can go down too."
Su Lu looked at the lying Zhao Mingzhu, and a voice suddenly appeared in his mind.
If you don't find a solution, Zhao Mingzhu will take everything away from you.
