Chapter 74 She has saved decades of detours
Zhao Mingzhu picked up the chopsticks and put them down again. After looking at Gu Qingheng, she turned around and asked Gu Yu:
"Oh, I don't understand. How does His Highness know that this wasn't a mosquito bite? He didn't see it with his own eyes."
Gu Yu bit off the silver thread curl and said, "There is nothing in this Eastern Palace that my Royal Brother doesn't know. What do you think, Royal Brother?"
Gu Qingheng did not answer.
He pushed the porridge towards Zhao Mingzhu and said to her in a calm tone but with the force of a bomb:
"These two were together last night."
Zhao Mingzhu took it, her ears trembling and her hands shaking. After she understood, her lips parted slightly:
“You…you guys…”
She pointed her index finger from Gu Yu to Bo Ling, and her mouth opened so wide that she almost swallowed an egg, showing her shock.
Gu Yu nodded calmly: "Yes."
But compared to her, Bo Ling's face was so red that it looked like blood was dripping out.
Zhao Mingzhu held the porridge and drank mouthful after mouthful, finally calming herself down.
Gu Yu clearly didn't show any signs of having any connection with Bo Ling at that time, and when he teased her, she even replied with the word "boring".
How come he rolled onto the bed as soon as he turned his head!
Zhao Mingzhu glared at Gu Yu, who was doing important things silently without revealing a single word.
That made her keep asking questions, how presumptuous!
Gu Yu tilted his head, his eyes clearly saying that you are stupid.
After Zhao Mingzhu knew the inside story, she fell silent. She stopped talking and the scene became quiet.
Until the three of them were ready to go to the academy.
"My brother has been to the Imperial College far more often than to the palace these days. I didn't have that privilege back then."
Gu Yu played with the jade pendant on his waist and teased.
Gu Qingheng didn't turn around: "Do you really want me to go?"
"Forget it." She didn't want to be face to face with Gu Qingheng all day.
In front of the East Palace gate, Su Lu was looking forward to it, and when he saw several people, he hurried forward.
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess, and the Princess."
Gu Qingheng nodded.
Su Lu was secretly happy in her heart. Today was better than yesterday. She was finally not ignored.
Zhao Mingzhu climbed onto the carriage and pulled Su Lu along with her: "Since Miss Su is here, let's go to the academy together."
Su Lu turned around to see that Gu Qingheng looked normal. She nodded and said, "Thank you, Princess."
Zhao Mingzhu looked at the people in the carriage and quickly realized that something was wrong. Gu Qingheng didn't say anything, so it was fine for Gu Yu to come up, but why did Bo Ling come up as well?
No, with so many people, how can we create opportunities for Su Lu and Gu Qingheng?
She could take Gu Yu halfway down later, but Bo Ling...
"Bo Ling, this carriage is small enough. You're bigger, so get another one for yourself."
Zhao Mingzhu didn't care at all that the other party and Gu Yu might be in their honeymoon period.
Bo Ling said innocently, "Crown Princess, my hair is not even as wide as that Miss Su's."
His words successfully made Zhao Mingzhu notice Su Lu's hairstyle today. The double flat buns were decorated with pearl flowers and the glazed head ornaments were layered. It was obvious that it was carefully prepared.
But she also used a pair of long glazed hairpins inlaid with kingfisher feathers. Although they were placed at the end, they still took up a considerable space visually.
Su Lu just sat down and instantly became restless, especially when someone looked at her.
She felt resentful in her heart, thinking that she should have listened to her mother and not had to do this hairstyle today.
Gu Yu looked at this scene and chuckled. Zhao Mingzhu took out a handful of pine nuts and stuffed them into her mouth.
In the lowest voice, he said viciously, "Watch your people."
If you do anything bad to her again, she will be ruthless and destroy you.
When the carriage was halfway there, Zhao Mingzhu cleared her throat at the perfect moment:
"I suddenly remembered that An Yun asked me to meet her here to buy rouge. I'll get off at the rouge shop up ahead."
She grabbed Gu Yu and said, "Princess, come with me and take Bo Ling to pay the money."
Zhao Mingzhu felt that this was still too deliberate. She frowned and said to Su Lu, "Are you going?"
Of course Su Lu shook his head.
"Okay."
Zhao Mingzhu pulled Gu Yu out of the carriage and took the time to look back to see if Bo Ling had caught up.
But because of Gu Yu's trap, Bo Ling followed them out of the carriage without hesitation.
Gu Yu turned around and said, "You did it so obviously, do you really think my royal brother can't see it?"
Zhao Mingzhu curled her lips: "I can't care so much."
She is not a god, and she has racked her brains to create opportunities for Su Lu. The rest depends on her own ability.
Moreover, Zhao Mingzhu looked back at the parked carriage and remembered the message brought by the Shoukang Palace nanny.
"The young lady from Qingzhou has arrived. Please cooperate, Crown Princess."
Su Lu can't do that, because the Queen Mother is still waiting to make a move... She thinks that this is a sure thing.
Zhao Mingzhu thought about the time and left after preparing the Spring Banquet.
As for how to leave, she already had a vague idea in her mind.
In the carriage.
Su Lu sat for a long time before the carriage started moving again. She said softly:
"Your Highness?"
"Your Highness!"
Before her astonishment subsided, a sharp pain came from her neck, causing Su Lu's face to twist. She held the hand with both hands, but could not move it at all.
"Your Highness... stop coughing!" Su Lu's lungs were almost drained of air, and tears welled up in his eyes due to the pain.
Gu Qingheng's expression was expressionless, and his expression gradually tightened, looking at her like a dead dog on the side of the road:
"I have warned you many times and given you chances."
But Su Lu didn't cherish it.
Su Lu's body trembled, and the glass hairpin fell to the ground and broke into two pieces.
Driven by a strong desire to survive, "No, it was the Crown Princess... She made me do this!"
Of course Gu Qingheng knew, but he didn't care.
Su Lu's pretty face turned red as her palms clenched. There was a click and her eyes instantly lost their luster.
Gu Qingheng let go and looked at Su Lu lying on the ground.
"Changhe, send him back to the Su family. If they have any objections, they can come to the East Palace to find me."
Changhe lifted the curtain of the car and saw Su Lu's body on the ground, and nodded in response.
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
Changhe dragged the man out of the carriage. He couldn't help but sigh, wondering why he had to hit his head against the wall.
Now it's okay, just die.
It doesn't matter if she dies. She will die sooner or later anyway. She can save herself from taking decades of detours.
Half an hour later, Minister Su listened to Changhe's words. He only lifted a corner, revealing Su Lu's pale face, and then covered it:
"According to what the Changhe guards said, did my daughter really anger His Highness, and end up like this?"
"Yes, Lord Shangshu."
Changhe looked at Su Lu's body covered with white cloth.
"If the Minister is not angry, you can come to the East Palace. Or you can go directly to His Majesty to make the decision."
Minister Su waved his hand and had the body carried away. He had more than one daughter, so there was no need to offend the crown prince for her.
He was still worried that he might have angered Gu Qingheng.
That Crown Prince is not a living Buddha.
Minister Su scolded Madam Su, who was crying on Su Lu, "Stop crying! Go and prepare for the funeral!"
What good is crying if the person is dead?
Mrs. Su's makeup was all smudged. She was afraid of her husband and was about to let go and carry the body away.
The white cloth was suddenly lifted, and the dead Su Lu suddenly sat up.
She looked terrified: "Don't kill me!"
This scene frightened the servants so much that they stepped back, and Mrs. Su was also so frightened that she fainted.
The dead were resurrected, and the Su family was in chaos.
