The daughter of the emperor was reborn and was spoiled by the sickly prince.

Chapter 140 It’s better to demolish a temple than ruin a marriage

The air around was very quiet.

Liao Qinglan heard a sound of clothes rubbing against each other, probably the woman gently lifting up Wang Tingzhi's clothes.

Then there was the subtle sound of a porcelain bottle being opened, and the fragrance of medicine filled the quiet air.

The pain from the wound made Wang Tingzhi's breathing become heavy.

The occasional low humming sound echoed in the empty tent.

I have to say...it sounds a little bit tempting...

If Liao Qinglan could stick her head out and see Wang Tingzhi's current appearance, she would be shocked.

The young man from an aristocratic family, who had always been elegant and noble, now looked painful and pale.

Those deep eyes were misted with pain and looked a little blurry.

The slender neck is slightly tilted back, revealing a beautiful jawline.

Her Adam's apple trembled slightly with the frequency of her breathing, and her whole body had a kind of broken beauty.

This is completely different from his usual ascetic image of a Confucian scholar.

After applying the medicine on his arms and legs, the woman helped Wang Tingzhi lean forward, unbuttoned his shirt, and applied medicine on his body.

The distance was so close that Liao Qinglan didn't dare to breathe, for fear that she would discover someone under the bed.

However, the woman's attention was all on Wang Tingzhi, and she paid no attention to anything else.

Her movements were very skillful, and she quickly applied the medicine all over Wang Tingzhi's body.

There was another sound of bottles and jars colliding, and the woman had already packed up the medicine box.

"Girl, are you leaving?" Wang Tingzhi's voice was a little weak and reluctant.

Liao Qinglan saw her hand holding the medicine box and then slowly put it down, and then sat next to Wang Tingzhi.

Although she didn't speak, Wang Tingzhi could feel her presence. He chuckled and said, "Although you never talk to me, I am very grateful that you come to see me every day. If I have the chance, I really hope to see what you look like."

He groped his way out and gently placed his hand on the back of the woman's hand.

Both of their hands were on the ground, right in front of Liao Qinglan.

Liao Qinglan saw clearly that when her hands touched the woman's fingers, she trembled slightly, as if she wanted to escape, but was also reluctant to do so.

"As a girl, you must be careful and take good care of yourself in the barracks." Wang Tingzhi reminded her again, "It should be evening now, you should go back early and don't work too hard."

The woman stood up, picked up the medicine box and prepared to leave.

After taking a few steps, Wang Tingzhi suddenly called out "girl".

The footsteps stopped.

Wang Tingzhi hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "I... I don't know when they will force me to get married. Will I have the chance to see you again in the future?"

The woman didn't say anything, just stood there quietly without making any movement.

After a long while, she seemed to wake up suddenly, and fled out of the tent in panic.

After the noise outside subsided, Liao Qinglan and the others quietly crawled out from under the bed.

Liao Qinglan felt a little complicated.

He was somewhat relieved that Wang Tingzhi had finally gotten over his last relationship and was no longer obsessed with her.

But he also felt a little sad. Judging from the woman's clothes and appearance, she must have a high status in the camp. This relationship might not end well.

"It seems that Lord Wang's charm remains as strong as ever. He can still coax women around even when he's trapped in the enemy camp." Gu Mingzhao said sarcastically.

Liao Qinglan tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "How can you say that?"

Seeing Liao Qinglan's tangled and regretful expression, Gu Mingzhao nodded her head and said, "His purpose is so obvious that he can only deceive a little girl like you. Has he already staged a big drama of hatred and love in his heart just now?"

"It's the same with you. Your Highness can see through it at a glance. Maybe you have used such a move before." Wang Tingzhi fought back unwillingly, not looking as weak and fragile as before.

Liao Qinglan opened her eyes wide, looked at Gu Mingzhao, then at Wang Tingzhi, and asked hesitantly, "What do you mean? Was Lord Wang pretending just now?"

Gu Mingzhao explained to her: "He didn't say a word of nonsense just now, every word he said had an ulterior motive.

He hoped to see her and let the woman heal his eyes.

He told her to be careful in the military camp, hoping to find out what her identity was here.

As for the last sentence, it is really despicable. "

The last sentence?

Liao Qinglan recalled that Wang Tingzhi finally asked the woman whether he could see her again after getting married...

She was dumbfounded.

In her opinion, the scene just now was clearly a man who was forced to marry someone else, and was carefully saying goodbye to the woman he had a crush on.

How can he be so evil?

Seeing that she was still confused, Gu Mingzhao sighed and continued, "His last words have several meanings. He urged the woman to either let him go, come and grab his bride, or simply part ways with the group that imprisoned him. Anyway, she won't suffer any loss by choosing him. It's a three-birds-with-one-stone move."

The look in Liao Qinglan's eyes when she looked at Wang Tingzhi changed a little, and her face was filled with an indescribable expression.

Gu Mingzhao patted her head and laughed: "You are simple-minded, it is normal that you can't see through this scheming old man. Be more careful in the future and don't be fooled."

After all, Wang Tingzhi was a young talent that everyone in the capital envied, and he found it difficult to accept such a title. He complained, "Your Highness, Prince Qin, I am only one year older than you, so I don't deserve to be called an 'old man'."

Liao Qinglan still didn't understand: "Master Wang, you can't see her, and she doesn't speak, so how do you know she's not a simple person?"

"I am only blind, but not in my heart. There are many people guarding outside, and she can come and go freely. She must have a relatively high status here. Since she came to see me and had no intention of harming me, I guess she is not completely united with the one who imprisoned me."

"So, you're taking advantage of her?"

"What else? They locked me up here, should I be grateful?" Wang Tingzhi's voice was cold, without a trace of emotion in his words.

Liao Qinglan found it difficult to accept for a moment.

Judging from the woman's behavior, she must admire Wang Tingzhi.

Wang Tingzhi clearly knew this, yet he still deliberately seduced her to achieve his own goal.

She suddenly remembered that Gu Mingzhao had told her before how he took advantage of the admiration of the Qingzhou prefect's daughter to whitewash his identity and sneak into the Liao Mansion.

No wonder Gu Mingzhao could see through his tricks at a glance.

These two people are essentially exactly the same...

"Okay, you're going to be the groom here, and you've got a confidante taking care of you. It seems like we've been worrying for nothing. Qinglan, let's go." Gu Mingzhao raised his foot and walked towards the window from which they came.

Clear mist?

The sudden change of address almost caught Liao Qinglan off guard.

"Now that we're here, aren't you going to save Lord Wang?" Liao Qinglan hesitated and didn't follow immediately.

Wang Tingzhi shook his head: "Miss Liao, I am seriously injured and I can't see. Even if I escape from this tent, I can't escape from the gate of the military camp. Your Highness also understands this, so he made such a decision."

"I would rather destroy ten temples than ruin a marriage. I am afraid that it will delay your wedding."

"The bandit leader will return to the barracks in the near future. The wedding will be held in five days. I will invite Your Highness to the wedding banquet then."

"understood."

Gu Mingzhao responded and left silently with Liao Qinglan.
