Chapter 552: Dark Childhood Stories Are Not Lack of Cinderella (17)
Darren visited the palace at night, and Gu Zhen also sneaked in to learn magic. It can only be said that the two of them are quite destined to be together.
Gu Zhen felt that she was the only one who could help Darren.
But there is no free lunch in the world.
Gu Zhen patted Darren on the shoulder and said sincerely, "Your Highness, I really sympathize with your experience, but I believe there must be a way to heal the scar on your face."
Darren didn't have much hope, but he saw the eagerness in Miss Anna's eyes.
"Miss Anna, you killed the witch yourself... Do you know some magic as well?"
Darren easily figured out the problem that no one else noticed. Gu Zhen touched his nose and said, "I understand it a little bit, but I still need to learn."
She stood up and looked carefully at this small secret room. The walls were hollowed out, and there were not many books placed inside, which were a bit messy. Gu Zhen looked at them one by one. Apart from some so-called royal secrets, there were some obscure philosophy-like books.
Only a parchment book in the highest cave caught Gu Zhen's attention.
There is no title of the book, but when you open the first page you will see a familiar scene and the introduction of the magic wand.
Gu Zhen was amused. She really didn't know how Ella found this place in the original plot. If it was written in more detail, she wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.
After stuffing the book into her small bag, Gu Zhen asked Darren to come over and sit down. "Second Prince, how about we do business?"
"Whatever Miss Anna wants, I will do my best to do it if I can."
Gu Zhen had originally given up hope for the title, but now he felt that it was a godsend opportunity.
"First of all, it was me who exposed the evil deeds of the eldest prince, dealt with the witch, and learned about your existence from your father. That's why the second prince had the opportunity to see the light of day again. This is one reason."
"Secondly, I can heal the scars on your face, help you return to the palace, and take back power from Marquis Will."
Darren's eyes widened slightly, "Ms. Anna, this is just the first favor, I can't repay it."
Gu Zhen was very satisfied with the sensible second prince.
"After you return to the palace, I want you to pass on the title of Duke to me and protect the safety of our manor. It is as simple as that. It should be easy for the future King to do it."
Although there are not many duchesses, there are some. The difficulty lies in that Gu Zhen is not the biological daughter of Duke Charles.
Darren quickly thought about the feasibility in his mind. He grew up in the palace and understood some politics. In fact, in most cases, as long as there is no conflict of interest, or even if you can bring benefits, many things can be negotiated.
He smiled, and his ugly face looked a little weird under the light, but the young Second Prince was born with a gentle voice, which neutralized his terror very well.
"I'm happy to serve Miss Anna." Darren took the initiative to hold Gu Zhen's hand and gave her a loyal kiss.
The two reached a cooperation and agreed that after leaving here, they would meet in the greenhouse of the manor every night to study magic together.
Gu Zhen walked to the wall and listened. The group of soldiers could not find any clues inside. After a large-scale search, they had already left the library.
It was quiet outside.
They waited patiently until the second half of the night before operating the mechanism in the secret room and moving along the wall to the outside.
There were guards patrolling and searching the palace. Gu Zhen was lucky to have sneaked in on the carriage delivering wine, but it would be difficult for him to get out.
But Darren was not worried at all. He pulled Gu Zhen and ran all the way, taking advantage of the cover of statues and trees, and ran to the northwest corner of the palace.
"Miss Anna, I'll carry you up."
Gu Zhen looked at the slightly high city wall and swallowed.
Darren smiled upon seeing this, and let Gu Zhen lie on his back and hug him tightly, while he took advantage of the power of jogging, suddenly jumped up, and climbed onto the wall with both hands.
There was a bulge in the stone wall, and Darren reached the top in a few tries, just like climbing a rock.
Gu Zhen was so terrified that she clamped her legs around his strong waist and abdomen, wondering if this was the situation of extreme sports for early Westerners?
They really love rock climbing!
Darren jumped up from the city wall and grabbed the branch of the tree opposite. With the weight of one more person, Gu Zhen heard a cracking sound.
The branch broke with a sound. Darren put his arm around Gu Zhen's waist and held her in his arms to protect her head. He rolled on the ground to prevent her from getting hurt.
Gu Zhen's head, neck and back were protected by her hands, and there were pads of flesh under her body, so she was not injured at all. But Darren had been hit by her once before, and now he fell again, so he must have felt uncomfortable.
Darren hissed, his lower back hurting from a rock. He stood up with a grin on his face, "Ms. Anna, let's go."
Gu Zhen estimated the location and found it was not far from where she tied her horse, so she helped Darren down the hillside and found her white horse in a woods.
The white horse was a little dissatisfied when it saw another person, but the young master hugged it and kissed it, so the white horse had to reluctantly lower its body and let the tall man ride on it.
Gu Zhen also got on the horse and whispered to the white horse to go home quickly.
Darren felt a little relieved holding her in his arms. The two drove in through the back door of the manor without disturbing anyone. Gu Zhen sent him back to the mill. Darren had been living alone in the mill since he came to the manor.
The living space provided for him in the mill was not big, with only a simple small bed. Darren's tall body could not even stretch his legs when lying on it.
There is a dormitory but he doesn't live there. It must be because he is ostracized because of his face.
Gu Zhen had no intention of correcting the other workers' thoughts, so she asked Darren to undress so she could see his injuries.
Darren was a little shy, but Miss Anna looked serious and he didn't dare and didn't want to refuse.
Lifting up his shirt, Gu Zhen saw a cut on his lower back caused by a sharp stone, and some bruises.
"It's a serious injury," Gu Zhen wiped the wound for him, "I'll go get some medicine."
Darren wanted to say no, but Gu Zhen had already run out, so he had no choice but to lie there and wait patiently.
All I can think of is Miss Anna's every smile and frown.
The best person in the world is Miss Anna. She doesn't mind his ugliness, isn't afraid of being implicated by him, and cares about him so much.
Darren rested his face on his hands, facing the wall, and the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.
He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't notice someone coming into the room.
Darren almost screamed out when he felt a sudden pain in the wound on his lower back. He propped himself up and looked back, then stood there in a daze.
"Miss Ella..."
Ella was barefoot and facing away from the light, so her expression could not be seen. However, the force with which she pressed on the wound was not gentle.
Darren gasped in pain, "Miss Rilla, what are you doing?"
