Chapter 73 She Will Definitely Earn This Money
Zhao Mingzhu watched Su Lu come back and asked casually, "Did His Highness accept it?"
Su Lu nodded, but didn't say that she didn't go in at all.
"Just go in."
Zhao Mingzhu nodded. This was a good start. She believed that at this rate, it wouldn't take long for Gu Qingheng to realize that Su Lu was his true love.
Zhao Mingzhu waved her hand: "The Su family's carriage is already here, I won't see you off."
After hearing this, Su Lu grabbed her handkerchief and said, "I'll come and wait for the Crown Princess to go to school tomorrow morning?"
Then she could get on the carriage with Zhao Mingzhu.
Zhao Mingzhu thought for a moment and said, "That's fine."
Anyway, in order to get closer to her and Gu Qingheng, riding in the same carriage is also an opportunity. I can just take the opportunity to get off halfway.
"Xiao Su, take me back with you. Thank you for your hard work." An Yun immediately stood up and said to Su Lu.
Su Lu couldn't help but take a deep breath when she heard the three words "Xiao Su Ah". Did they really think she was a servant?!
Seeing that she didn't answer, An Yun asked, "Why, Xiao Su, you wouldn't be reluctant, would you?"
Mingzhu has something on her, to be exact, she has it on her.
An Yun put her hands on her hips and turned her head: "Mingzhu, look at her..."
Su Lu looked at Zhao Mingzhu, then said softly, "Okay, Miss An, please."
After hearing this, An Yun clapped her hands, put her hands behind her back and walked away with a swagger, and Su Lu followed behind her.
Zhao Mingzhu turned around and looked at Gu Yu: "Princess, are you going back to the palace, or are you going to stay and sleep?"
Gu Yu yawned and said, "I'm going to sleep in Jianjia Courtyard."
Zhao Mingzhu knew Jianjiayuan, which was the courtyard where Gu Yu used to stay overnight.
She teased, "That pretty boy Bo Ling, I remember he was not far away. Is there any chance that you two..."
"boring."
…
Gu Yu left Tingchao Courtyard and walked slowly to Jianjia Courtyard. There was water flowing on both sides and the sound of insects chirping among the flowers.
Amidst the swaying shadows of the trees, Gu Yu saw a huge rock under the willow tree. She lifted her shawl and said, "Come out."
She didn't look back, watching the ripples on the lake.
Bo Ling waited for a long time. He had been hiding in the dark and had no intention of showing up.
But Gu Yu didn't know when he discovered him.
Now that he had been discovered, there was no need to hide any longer: "Princess, I, Bo Ling, have disturbed you while you were strolling in the garden?"
"You said I was strolling in the garden?" Gu Yu turned her head and smiled, and the crabapple jewel flowers on her temples caught Bo Ling's eyes.
His palms were sweating, and he had no idea how to answer: "Yes, Princess."
Gu Yu looked at the scarf that was about to touch the surface of the pool and fiddled with it:
"This isn't a good time to go to the garden."
After hearing this, Bo Ling suddenly remembered that it was already night. Although there were lanterns, it was indeed not a good time to visit the garden.
His handsome face flushed red, and he stuttered as much as he usually did: "Common people...common people..."
Fortunately, Gu Yu did not ask any more questions, nor did she laugh at him. She stood up and walked closer to ask:
"Bo Ling, I remember you are my brother's man. Why do you always call yourself a commoner instead of a subordinate?"
"Princess, Bo Ling is indeed His Highness's man, but His Highness has allowed that unless he needs me, Bo Ling is free for the rest of the time."
This was also the only condition for him to sell himself to Gu Qingheng for life.
There are some subtle meanings about these two self-proclaimed terms.
Bo Ling knew that he was not worthy of the person in front of him, but he still hoped to narrow the gap between him and the princess as much as possible.
Gu Yu took two steps closer, their breathing intertwined, and Gu Yu suddenly said:
"Bo Ling, you like me."
This is not a question, it is a certainty.
Bo Ling had thought of thousands of scenarios in which Gu Yu knew what he was thinking, but none of them was like the scene before him. Not only did Gu Yu point it out first, but he also didn't beat around the bush.
He moved his lips and whispered, "Yes, Princess. Bo Ling has liked you for many years."
He remained motionless, watching Gu Yu's expression when he heard these words. He was worried that Gu Yu might show disgust, or that he was just a toad wanting to eat swan flesh...
But fortunately, no.
But Bo Ling was still very nervous, and Gu Yu looked calm, without any joy or other emotions.
He had no idea what the person in front of him was thinking.
But when Bo Ling knew that he liked the person in front of him, he had done a lot of homework and she didn't like him.
"Princess, you are like the bright moon. I, a humble commoner, know I am not worthy of you..."
Bo Ling spoke slowly, with a bit of bitterness in his voice. He had always wanted to wait for the day when the results would be announced, so that he could pass the exam and come before Gu Yu with a clear conscience.
But if Gu Yu points it out in advance and the other party doesn't like him, he will be rejected immediately.
"Bo Ling, I will stay at Jianjia Courtyard tonight."
Gu Yu did not refuse. She passed by and left these words.
Bo Ling was caught off guard and confused. What did this mean?
She lives in Jianjiayuan...
All night long, Zhao Mingzhu walked under the pomegranate tree. She swayed left and right, and then saw Gu Yu coming slowly from behind the moon gate.
"I was just about to look for you, and you came on your own."
Behind her was Bo Ling. Zhao Mingzhu was a little puzzled: "What are you doing here?"
Bo Ling took out the medicine bottle and said, "I will bring the antidote to Her Majesty."
Zhao Mingzhu nodded after hearing this: "Didn't they say it would take a long time? How come it's already been done in just half a month?"
"Once we get the blood, it won't be difficult to prepare the antidote."
Bo Ling said this, but his eyes followed Gu Yu involuntarily.
Gu Yupo sat down in the corridor, leaning lazily on the chair. She was wearing a pomegranate red long skirt today, with a fairy bun on her head, and only two crystal lotus hairpins inserted in it.
But in Bo Ling's eyes, all the splendor was despicable.
Zhao Mingzhu sat opposite her: "What's that under your ear?"
Gu Yu touched it casually without answering. Zhao Mingzhu wanted to continue asking, but she saw Bo Ling still standing there out of the corner of her eye.
"Bo Ling, do you have anything else to say? Oh, you're looking for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Bo Ling nodded: "Yeah."
Zhao Mingzhu felt something was wrong. Why was Bo Ling blushing? Was it very hot today?
Zhao Mingzhu was thinking and looked up at the sky, and Gu Qingheng came out.
"Your Highness, do you think it's hot today?"
Gu Qingheng wiped his hands with a handkerchief, his eyes fell on Bo Ling below: "Is the Crown Princess hot?"
Zhao Mingzhu shook her head: "I saw that Bo Ling's face was so red, but I didn't feel hot, so I asked you, Your Highness."
"I'm not hot either."
Bo Ling's face froze for a moment, and then he heard Zhao Mingzhu kindly remind him, "Your Highness, Bo Ling is waiting for you."
The next moment, Gu Qingheng's eyes moved over. Bo Ling had been with this master for many years and did not miss the half-smile in the other's eyes.
Fortunately, Zhao Mingzhu did not continue to kindly remind Bo Ling that it was time to speak.
But she pointed at Gu Yu's ear and teased: "It's not even summer yet, and there are mosquitoes. Look at the big red marks they bit our princess!"
"Qiao'er, go get the ointment and sell it to the princess for a hundred taels of silver."
Gu Yu finally raised her eyes and sneered: "It's a pity that you can't make this money."
Zhao Mingzhu was already waiting to receive the money, skeptical. "I bought this ointment at a high price, and it's extremely effective against mosquitoes. If you don't believe me, try applying some."
Impossible, she can definitely earn this money.
Gu Yu looked at the man in front of her who was swearing so confidently, and she said lazily:
"If it's not a mosquito bite, the medicine won't work. If you don't believe me, ask my brother."
