Quick travel: I rely on the childbirth system to pamper my harem

"I don't dare." Gu Qingning said half-truthfully, "I don't dare if there is no one to protect me."

When she first arrived, even if it was for the sake of her family, she couldn't act recklessly.

What's more, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years.

She has time to plan!

Rong Jing glanced at her and walked forward without saying anything.

Seeing no movement, Rong Jing said calmly: "Follow me."

Gu Qingning hesitated for a while and asked Dian Cui to send a message to Zhao, while he followed Rong Jing and got into the carriage.

The curtain fell, blocking out all viewing eyes.

Rong Jing found the ointment from the cabinet and took out a spoonful.

He rubbed the red mark on Gu Qingning's neck, gently and slowly twisting it. The pads of his fingers and the ointment felt cool, and Gu Qingning couldn't help but take a breath.

His eyes remained unchanged, making it difficult to see his emotions: "Why are you still not making any progress?"

"You were bullied when you were a child, and are you still being bullied now?"

It turned out to be him, she didn't identify the wrong person!

"Obviously my brother is often bullied." Gu Qingning said silently.

When the coachman heard this, surprise flashed through his eyes. Afraid of missing important information, he held his breath and listened secretly.

Rong Jing paused and raised his head with an indifferent expression.

Gu Qingning's heart was pounding wildly. She didn't know if Rong Jing was still the little brother from back then.

He is in a high position, so he may have changed a long time ago!

"Who sent you?"

Sure enough, I became suspicious!

Gu Qingning clenched her fingers slightly, as if she was very nervous: "No one sent me. I didn't even know you were my brother until I saw the jade pendant."

This is the truth.

Rong Jing's expression became even more serious. He glanced at Gu Qingning and put the ointment back into the original cabinet without haste.

"is it?"

A question, but not a question.

Gu Qingning shrank, her shoulders shaking.

"I won't lie to my brother."

Rong Jing half-squinted his eyes and looked at her: "Then why are you so scared? Are you afraid that I will kill you?"

Gu Qingning seemed to want to suppress the panic in his heart and shook his head towards Rongjing.

Seeing her like this, Rong Jing suddenly sneered.

"Get out of here."

The carriage stopped suddenly, and Gu Qingning was pulled out of it and stood there in a daze.

In the darkness, someone laughed.

"Just say that someone like Rong Jing can't like women, and he won't show mercy to women. No, he's been kicked off again."

"But she can get on Rong Jing's carriage and she's not dead yet. She's really quite capable."

"Go find out who she is."

"Yes, Prince Xiao."

Gu Qingning stood there for a while, making sure no one was watching around him, then curled his lips and regained his composure.

She was just pretending to be scared.

Although she was not familiar with Rong Jing, she knew that someone who could climb from a bullied concubine to the position of regent in just a few years must be ruthless and would never trust her easily.

Her sudden appearance will definitely lead to suspicion.

Then she should stay away as much as possible, use her strengths to avoid weaknesses, and wait until he finds out the whole story. Then she can get close to him. It would be much better than running into him now!

"Sister Ning." Zhao came up to her and looked at her worriedly, "What's going on? How come you are related to the regent?"

Gu Qingning glanced out of the corner of her eye and noticed Dian Cui winking at her.

Diancui should have told Ms. Zhao everything.

Gu Qingning didn't want to hide anything, so she pulled Mrs. Zhao onto the carriage and said, "Shu Jingyi came to trouble me just now. It was the regent who came to help. His... mother has also seen it."

"Have I seen it?" Zhao was sure that she had never dealt with the regent before, and was very surprised.

"Twelve years ago, Xuzhou, next door neighbor."

Zhao was slightly surprised, thinking back.

Back then, Gu's father was still preparing for the exam. Their family lived in an alley. Next door lived a pair of orphans and a widowed mother. Because of their status, she had a deep impression on her.

"That foreigner? Is it him?"

Gu Qingning nodded.

Ms. Zhao was surprised and said: "Sister Ning, no matter what, we still don't provoke her."

Gu Qingning did not agree, and just bowed and lay on Zhao's knees.

"Mother, my daughter knows what's going on."

Gu Zhaozhao will definitely come back, and when she gets sick, he will still find her, and Rong Jing is her best escape route.

……

Regent's Palace.

Rong Jing leaned on the chair, with a desk filled with memorials in front of him.

He stared at the jade pendant in his hand, his thoughts racing.

In the beginning, Rong Jing was often bullied because of her status, and no one dared to play with him. Only she took the trouble to talk to him every day.

At first, Rong Jing looked at her like air and refused to speak.

Later, one time, he was blocked in a corner and beaten, but she rushed to stop him desperately. He vaguely remembered that she was injured at the time.

His head was badly bruised by a stone, and he lost a lot of blood.

It was also this time that he opened his mouth and said the first words to her in a cold and indifferent voice.

"Are you stupid? Don't you know how to hide?"

"If you hide, I'll hit you, brother." She was almost hurt, but she was still smiling at him.

Rong Jing felt that she was the stupidest little girl he had ever seen.

"Brother, eat the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. My mother made it for me." She turned over her pocket, took out a small piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and stuffed it into his mouth.

The sweet taste made his whole body feel sweet.

"They all say that I am an outsider and they hate me. Why do you still stick to me so close?"

The little girl pouted and whispered: "They are them, what does it have to do with me? What's more, my brother is so good-looking, how can he be a bad person?"

"You little bitch, you look just like your mother, you were born a bitch!"

"..."

Rong Jing came to his senses, looked away, and returned to his cold-hearted expression: "I don't look good."

"How could it be?" The little girl stretched out her hand and patted his face, "She looks better than me."

Rong Jing turned his eyes uncomfortably: "Don't you feel pain?"

"It hurts." The little girl gasped with her hands and rubbed her forehead, "It hurts so much. Brother, please bandage it up for me. Otherwise, if Mom sees it, she won't let me come out to play with you."

"..."

"Your Majesty, you have found all the information you asked your subordinates to find. Do you want to read it now?" Zhui Feng Shen appeared behind Rong Jing.

Rong Jing held the jade pendant and stretched out his hand backwards.

Zhui Feng handed over the letter in his hand.

Rong Jing opened it and quickly scanned the writing on it. It was about what Gu Qingning and the Gu family did before entering Beijing and what they did before entering Beijing. There was nothing unusual about it.

Only——

"Why did she suddenly refuse to marry the Li family?"

He didn't seem to want an answer. When Zhui Feng was about to explain, Rong Jing waved his hand and said, "The Li family is so ignorant. It seems they are too busy these days."

Zhui Feng's face was filled with confusion.

Is the prince saying that Li Chengqian has poor eyesight, so he fell in love with Gu Qingning?

"Your Majesty?"

"Don't the Li family always talk about barbarians invading the frontier recently?"

Rong Jing smiled lightly and said, "Just assign someone from the Li family to quell the war. What do you think?"

Zhui Feng was speechless: "The Li family is a civil servant, my lord, is this against the rules?"

"Can't you?" Rong Jing squeezed the letter in his hand.

Not long after, the letter turned into powder at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Zhui Feng's heart tightened: "I'll make arrangements right now!"
