Chapter 139: Ambition
Gu Zhirong looked around, then took a few steps closer to Zhao Ziyi and whispered next to his ear.
The more Zhao Ziyi listened to the look on his face, the more suspicious he became, and finally, he nodded heavily: "Miss Gu Wu, I, Zhao, have done a lot of bad things in my life, and now doing this good thing can be regarded as making up for the mistakes I made before." Miss Gu Wu, please rest assured, the old man will definitely do it. ”
Gu Zhirong came out of the cell, and the jailer greeted him courteously, and said with a sneer: "Miss Gu, is she leaving?"
Gu Zhirong vaguely felt that there were people around him, so he smiled slightly, and said, "This Lord Zhao, although he has committed some things, but his crime is not to death, how can he be imprisoned in the cell of this felon? In my opinion, just be locked in the cell of those miscellaneous criminals outside, and there is no need to make such a fuss." ”
The jailer was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Gu Zhirong to say this, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
Gu Zhirong smiled, ignored the jailer, and walked straight out. Anyway, she didn't mean to listen to the jailer, regardless of whether he reacted or not.
Mrs. Zhao and Mingyue quickly greeted her. Mrs. Zhao looked at Gu Zhirong expectantly: "Miss Gu Wu, look at this matter......"
Gu Zhirong pondered for a moment, in fact, she was purely tempting, and she was not completely sure: "I have already told the jailer on your behalf about this matter, and he will deal with it." ”
Mrs. Zhao looked at Gu Zhirong in amazement: "Miss Gu Wu, I mean, can you go and meet the prince and ...... for my husband?"
Before she finished speaking, Gu Zhirong interrupted her: "Mrs. Zhao, I have already told the jailer about this. As the saying goes, it is up to people to do things. It's up to the sky, as for the outcome of the matter, Mrs. Zhao, you better be patient. Just wait slowly. ”
Mrs. Zhao looked at Gu Zhirong dumbfounded, she thought that in front of this seemingly shrewd and capable Fifth Lady, her husband might have a trace of vitality, but she never thought that this Fifth Miss Gu was even more unreliable, and she was going to send her away in a few words.
Gu Zhirong ignored her and walked straight out.
When I got out of the cell, the sun was shining outside. Gu Zhirong exhaled deeply. Only then did I feel that the depression in my chest was released a lot.
The person Zhao Ziyi said just now really shocked her. At first, she just thought that it was the eldest lady's three-room property. So he was bent on breaking himself. But the fact is that the eldest lady's brother, the famous general of Zhenguan, also wants to come to get a piece of the pie, how do you think about it. It stands to reason that this is also an internal affair of the Marquis of Yuanning. Even if the property of the third room is confiscated. That's also from the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, how can it be his turn to get General Chen?
Besides, the famous general, the emperor's rewards are countless, will he be so short of money?
Gu Zhirong thought about it, and always felt that it didn't seem normal.
Perhaps it is because there are too many fields in these three rooms that they can be called dominating Jiangnan, no wonder so many people are eyeing themselves.
She exhaled again, deeply. After today, she understood. There is one more enemy of his own, and he is still a ruthless one.
She looked up, and then, she saw a person.
Noon has passed, the autumn sun is not as hot as midsummer, with a slight soft breeze, the sun is warm, and the whole body is comfortable. And that person, bathed in the warm autumn sun of this Hexi, is clothed in golden sunshine with harvest colors, exuding the unique atmosphere of this season, which makes people feel full and full, and can't help but rush over.
At this time, the autumn wind rose, and the person's white jade-like white robe flew away, which could be seen as a fairy. There are clouds drifting in, covering half of the sun, revealing a handsome and extraordinary face in the shadow of the sun, always that cold bearing, always that invincible arrogance.
Gu Zhirong turned his head slightly and pouted, what could it be like him?
The prince ignored the disgusted expression on Gu Zhirong's face, and walked straight over. Or was he just waiting outside the door, waiting for her?
"Coming out?" he asked, not in his usual indifferent tone, but with a faint hint of warmth as if he had been rendered by this autumn day.
"Why are you here?" she replied.
The complete answer is not what was asked.
He squinted his eyes slightly in the sun, but his eyes poured out warmth: "I avenged you." ”
"Do I know you well?" she asked him.
He frowned slightly, his eyes deep, and he actually probed her.
She sighed slightly, although she didn't appreciate this move too much, and it invisibly caused her a lot of trouble, but after all, it was someone's kindness, wasn't it?
About him who wanted to repay the great favor of her who took care of him for the night on the mountain?
This is not necessary, after all, he also saved himself, besides, he teased him.
Thinking of that thrilling experience, she couldn't help but look into his face. After these days of recuperation, his complexion is very good, and his face does not have the disgusting appearance of ulceration and pus that day, but instead is so cold and arrogant that people dare not look at it directly.
Gu Zhirong once again affirmed that the current prince is indeed good-looking, and his excellent genes are in place.
"Have you seen enough?" the prince seemed to be struck by her previous sentence "Am I familiar with you", and his tone seemed to be a little unfriendly.
Gu Zhirong rolled his eyes, could he be a narcissist?
The prince held back his anger and said, "Don't think I don't know, that night on the mountain, didn't you also look at me like this all night?"
Gu Zhirong was embarrassed: "At that time, you ...... Aren't you already unconscious?"
If she hadn't known that he had fallen asleep, why would she have come to him and carefully study his facial features?
"Even when I'm asleep, I'm awake. The prince said arrogantly, "Don't try to hide it from me. ”
Gu Zhirong felt that there was really no need to talk to an arrogant and rude person, so she turned around and left.
"Why are you going?" the prince grabbed her from behind, "our accounts have not yet been settled." ”
Gu Zhirong had no choice but to turn around, shake off his hand, and hold back his anger and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the account between us has already been cleared. If you still can't figure it out, I'll do the math for you. When you were in the library, you were hunted down and killed, and you killed my personal maid for no reason. Then you and I ran to the library and hid. Those gangsters outside set fires, the beams of the house burned down, and you took a beating in order to save me, and you were seriously injured. Then we escaped into the tunnel, fled to the mountains, at night you had a high fever, unconscious, I took care of it all night, and then we disguised ourselves into Beijing, on the way to meet Princess Zhaomin, at a critical juncture, you stepped forward and saved us all, which is also clear. ”
Speaking of this, Gu Zhirong raised his head. looked at him with a clear gaze: "So, Your Royal Highness the Prince, the relationship between me and you is so clear and clear, you should tell me, what other accounts do we have to settle?"
The prince didn't seem to expect Gu Zhirong to be so sharp-toothed, he was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Between us, is there really no account to settle?"
"Yes, nothing. Gu Zhirong nodded affirmatively and said, "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince continues to entangle the little girl like this, I really want to think that the Crown Prince has something for me." ”
Speaking of which, Gu Zhirong didn't plan to give the prince face, after all, there won't be too many opportunities to meet in the future, or maybe there will be no chance to meet again in the future, so it doesn't matter if it's heavier.
She turned around and left, and before she had taken two steps, the autumn wind behind her blew his faint sigh: "You really don't feel it, I have ambitions for you?"
Her heart shook, and she turned her head suddenly. (To be continued......)
