After the prince was reborn, he forced me to marry him and took me into the East Palace

Ah!

Nan Yuan figured out the reason almost instantly.

She said how could Gu Jingheng be injured? With his skills, how could he hurt someone's vital parts so easily?

It turns out to be a self-torture tactic!

Gu Jingheng, you lied to me again.

What protection, what love, it's all fake!

Nan Yuan clutched the clothes in her hands tightly and laughed at her own stupidity!

With just two simple sentences and a self-torture tactic from him, you began to waver. Nan Yuan, you are such a despicable person!

Nan Yuan glanced indifferently at Gu Jingheng outside the door, smiled self-deprecatingly, and left cautiously.

"You've followed me for so long, but you still don't know what you should keep to yourself?" Gu Jingheng glanced at Ah Qi indifferently.

"I know I was wrong, please forgive me, sir." Ah Qi knelt down in fear, trembling with fear.

Gu Jingheng frowned slightly: "Get up."

"Thank you, master." Ah Qi stood up as if he had been pardoned, but his heart was beating fast.

He slapped himself lightly on the mouth twice. He had been too careless during this period and dared to say anything. Fortunately, the master didn't care this time, otherwise his head would be gone!

"Let's go." Gu Jingheng got on the carriage and ordered coldly.

"Yes, Master." Ah Qi sat in the driving position, whipped the whip, and the carriage sped out...

Carriages were galloping along the road in the imperial city.

The Imperial Guards stood on both sides of the road, but no one dared to step forward to stop it, because it was the Crown Prince's carriage.

"Uu——"

The horse's hooves rose up, kicking up dust.

In front of the carriage, a girl in tattered clothes opened her arms and blocked the way of the carriage.

"Who is so bold as to stop the Crown Prince's carriage in the street?" Ah Qi shouted coldly.

"Brother Prince!" The girl ran towards the carriage and patted the carriage, "Brother Prince, please come out and see me!"

Ah Qi was shocked. Is this guy crazy?

The master is in a bad mood now. If I go up to her now, losing her life is no big deal. I'm just afraid of getting myself implicated!

He quickly jumped out of the car, walked to the girl, grabbed her shoulders, and pulled her aside: "Where did you come from, crazy woman? Get out of here!"

"Let me go!" The girl pushed Ah Qi away and rushed to the carriage like crazy.

Ah Qi didn't expect that she would dare to attack him. He was caught off guard and took two steps back, bumping into the shaft of the carriage.

Just when he was about to knock the man out, he suddenly heard the voice of his master.

"What's the fuss about?"

The car curtain was lifted, revealing Gu Jingheng's face. His pair of peach blossom eyes were slightly narrowed, revealing a bit of sharpness.

"Your Highness, this crazy woman came out of nowhere and blocked the carriage and refused to leave." Ah Qi knelt down and apologized, "I am incompetent, please forgive me, my master."

Gu Jingheng looked at the stunned girl and asked with cold eyes, "Who are you?"

The girl's eyes were red and she said tearfully, "Brother Crown Prince, I'm Sheng'er, don't you remember me?"

Shenger?

Gu Jingheng raised his cheek, having no impression.

Ah Qi was stunned for a moment, then thought of something and whispered something in Gu Jingheng's ear.

Gu Jingheng carefully looked at the girl who blocked his way again. Her peach blossom eyes were calm and her fingers tapped slowly on the window frame.

He remembered that the person in front of him who called herself "Sheng'er" was a daughter of his father, and also his sister. He had been kind-hearted and helped her deal with a vicious slave in his early years.

If you stop a car now, are you still trying to ask him for help?

Gu Jingheng raised the corners of his lips. He was not a good man. This palace was a place where the strong preyed on the weak. If you were unable to protect yourself, you would be eaten.

"Ah Qi." Gu Jingheng called out, and Ah Qi immediately understood what he meant. He stepped forward and pulled Gu Sheng, who was clinging to the carriage, away.

"If you dare to stop the car again, you'll be in trouble for your life!" Ah Qi scolded in a low voice, without any respect for the princess.

In this palace, the unfavored princess lives worse than a servant.

Gu Sheng couldn't resist Ah Qi's strength and fell heavily to the ground. Seeing that the carriage that she had finally stopped was about to disappear from her sight, she shouted at the top of her lungs: "Your Highness, please save me. I will do anything you ask me to do!"

The carriage continued to move forward. Just before Gu Sheng was completely desperate, she heard a clear voice: "Stop."

The carriage stopped.

Seeing this, Gu Sheng crawled and rolled towards the carriage. A pair of black soap boots appeared in front of her. She quickly grabbed the man's trouser leg and looked up.

The man was wearing a black and gold robe, his black hair was fixed behind his head with a golden crown. He had delicate features and an extremely handsome face. His peach blossom eyes were smiling, but there was no warmth in that smile.

"Brother Prince, please help me."

Gu Jingheng looked down at her and said calmly, "I can help you temporarily, but I can't help you forever."

Gu Sheng rolled her eyes. She knew that if Gu Jingheng was willing to talk to her, it must mean that he needed her to do something.

"Brother Prince, I will follow your instructions. Whatever you say is what I will do. I just ask you to save me." Gu Sheng pleaded.

She didn't want to go back to the cold palace. A living person staying there would go crazy sooner or later. She was still young and didn't want to die. The prince was her only lifeline.

"I'll find you a marriage."

-

Since they parted that day, Gu Jingheng waited in the East Palace for a whole day but received no news from Nan Yuan.

"What's going on over in Nanyuan?" Gu Jingheng looked at Ah Qi.

Ah Qi looked at Gu Jingheng with a hint of hesitation in his eyes. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "My Lord, there is no movement from Miss Nan Yuan."

Gu Jingheng frowned even deeper. How could there be no news at all?

When he left that day, Nan Yuan had clearly softened her heart towards him.

In order to prepare for their future meeting, he even left his clothes behind, waiting for Nan Yuan to come find him.

How can there be no movement?

"Then how does she explain that dress?" Gu Jingheng asked again.

Upon hearing this, Ah Qi knelt on the ground, with a look of fear on his face, and said, "Master, please forgive me! After the master left that day, Miss Nan Yuan put the master's clothes in the brazier and burned them. While she was processing the clothes, someone discovered it..."

Having said that, Ah Qi didn't even dare to look up, and felt cold all over.

Gu Jingheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Ah Qi, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Go on."

He is not too angry at the moment, he just wants to destroy the body, which is normal.

Ah Qi took a deep breath before continuing, "Miss Nan Yuan said that the clothes belonged to Master Xie, but Master Xie didn't want them anymore. She thought they were useless, so she... disposed of them herself."

The more Ah Qi spoke, the lower his voice became, and in the end he didn't even dare to look up at Gu Jingheng's expression.
