Chapter 90: Grounded for half a month
Qin Boyong raised his eyebrows and looked at Ouyang Qian, in fact, he had already secretly sent someone to find out Ouyang Qian's identity last night, otherwise, how could he be so relieved to take her back to the mansion at will?
"You snuck out of the house yesterday, are you guilty?"
"Back to the prince, I don't know. The prince said before that I can come and go in and out of the house at will. Gu Muzhi lowered his head, playing with the sachet pinned to his waist with both hands, and his face was full of grievances.
"It used to be before, and now it is now, yesterday this king and Xiaolan said very clearly, you are not allowed to leave the house."
Qin Boyong looked at Gu Muzhi expressionlessly, not softened by her grievances at all.
"But..."Gu Muzhi was about to say something, but Xiaolan immediately stepped forward and knelt in front of Qin Boyong, and then opened her mouth: "Lord Wang, the slave and maid should die, it is the slave and the maid who are not good to take care of!" ”
Xiao Lan's face was like ashes, if it weren't for her carelessness, thinking that Gu Muzhi was really asleep, there would be no later events.
"Are you willing to be punished?"
"Back to the prince, the slave and maid have done something wrong, and they are willing to be punished!" Xiaolan knew in her heart what was waiting for her, but she didn't hesitate.
Seeing that Xiaolan was going to be punished for herself, Gu Muzhi was a little anxious.
"It's... Rajah! Don't blame Xiaolan, I smuggled out by myself, and it has nothing to do with her! Gu Muzhi hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Qin Boyong's sleeve, and was about to intercede for Xiaolan, but was thrown away by Qin Boyong.
"Steward Lee." Qin Boyong waved his hand and called the housekeeper of the mansion to him, "Xiaolan took care of Gu Muzhi unfavorably, let her escape from the mansion, and almost caused a big disaster, you say, according to the regulations of the mansion, how should I punish her?" ”
Steward Li observed the expression of the prince, thought about it for a long time in his heart, and finally slowly opened his mouth: "Back to the prince, according to the regulations of the government, there should be twenty boards." ”
Qin Boyong listened to this answer and nodded slightly, "Well, let's go." ”
Steward Li knew what the prince meant, and stepped forward to mix Xiaolan from the ground, and was going to take her to be punished.
"Lord Wang, all this is my fault, if the Lord wants to be punished, punish me alone! I'm willing to punish the prince no matter what! ”
Seeing that Xiaolan wanted to suffer from the twenty boards for nothing for herself, Gu Muzhi's heart was really a little uncomfortable, and she began to regret that she had fun for a while yesterday, which harmed herself and Xiaolan.
"Miss Zhi, don't worry about the slave, the slave will be fine." In order not to worry Gu Muzhi, a smile tugged at the corner of Xiaolan's mouth.
"This king naturally knows that it is your fault, and you will naturally be punished."
Listening to Qin Boyong's words, Gu Muzhi's eyes suddenly turned red with anger, his face was unwilling, he glanced at Qin Boyong angrily, and watched Xiaolan being taken out of the hospital.
Soon, there were heavy noises outside the courtyard, and until the end of the twentieth ring, Xiaolan never let out a scream.
The more Xiaolan didn't say a word, the more uncomfortable Gu Muzhi's heart became, and in the end, the tears that she couldn't bear fell from her eyes one by one.
Ouyang Qian on the side looked at it, although she didn't know what was going on, but seeing Gu Muzhi so sad, her heart was not good.
"Lord Wang, the 20th board is over." The butler cautiously walked in from the outside, and the expression on his face was a little pity.
Qin Boyong nodded lightly, then turned his head to Gu Muzhi and said, "Xiaolan is done punishing, now it's your turn." If you don't listen to the king, you run away from the house, and the king will punish you by being grounded in the courtyard for half a month. ”
"Got it." Gu Muzhi was already choking up from crying, and anyone who saw the appearance of pear blossoms with rain would be distressed.
But Qin Boyong deliberately turned his back to her, as if he was afraid that he would soften when he saw her.
As soon as Qin Boyong left, Gu Muzhi immediately ran to the gate of the courtyard to check Xiaolan's situation.
Xiaolan, as a woman, her body is already weak, and she has just been hit by the board at the moment, and she is still lying on the spot, and she can't get up at all for a while.
"Qianqian, I can't get out of the yard, can I trouble you to help Xiaolan in." Gu Muzhi turned his head to look at Ouyang Qian and said embarrassedly.
Ouyang Qian nodded vigorously, without hesitation for a moment, and immediately ran towards Xiaolan, first checking her injuries on the spot to ensure that she could get off the ground before carefully helping her up.
Xiaolan was supported by Ouyang Qian, holding her waist with one hand, her face could not hide her teeth in pain, and she limped back to the yard.
"Xiaolan, you go back to the room and lie down, Qianqian, you help her, I'll go to the room and get a softer quilt."
After settling Xiaolan down, Ouyang Qian and Gu Muzhi stayed in her room.
"Miss Zhi, don't worry about the slave maid, it's all some skin injuries, and it will be fine tomorrow."
"Xiaolan, don't move, this matter started because of me, don't worry, I will take good care of you."
Gu Muzhi looked at Xiaolan with a determined face, although she had never taken care of others personally, she probably had a plan in her heart.
"This..." Xiaolan was about to open her mouth to refuse, but before she could say anything, she was blocked back by Gu Muzhi.
"Xiaolan, don't say anything else, if you don't let me take care of you personally, I will blame myself even more!"
Seeing that Gu Muzhi was so firm, Xiaolan no longer had any reason to refuse, so she simply nodded directly.
"Ah Zhi, don't worry, I can also help you take care of Miss Xiaolan together, I used to learn a lot of skills when I was out alone, and now it can come in handy."
Hearing Ouyang Qian say that she wanted to help herself, Gu Muzhi was moved in her heart, and turned her head to express her gratitude, but looking at Ouyang Qian's face, she couldn't say a word.
In the next two days, Gu Muzhi and Ouyang Qian took on the responsibility of taking care of Xiaolan together.
Fortunately, the prince was not too ruthless, and sent someone to send ointment to Xiaolan that afternoon, Gu Muzhi was responsible for medicating Xiaolan's wound, Ouyang Qian took the initiative to wash Xiaolan's clothes, and the cooperation between the two was quite tacit.
In the past two days, Gu Muzhi told Ouyang Qian everything about how he got to the Qin Mansion, saying that she was the concubine of the Qin Boyong Mansion.
"What?! Ah Zhi, how could you be willing to be only a concubine? Since you and Wang Yelang are in love, shouldn't you stay and fly together? ”
Gu Muzhi's experience made Ouyang Qian feel incredible, and she didn't understand why Gu Muzhi had to compromise and seek perfection.
Gu Muzhi seemed to have expected Ouyang Qian's reaction a long time ago, and explained unhurriedly: "You don't know, the prince looks cold as ice, but in fact, he likes to hide his emotions in his heart, and the prince is actually quite attentive to me." ”
Gu Muzhi gushed about Qin Boyong's kindness to herself, Ouyang Qian listened, but still didn't believe that Qin Boyong was so good.
