Chapter 23: Pull the master to take the blame

"If I say I'm passing through, is Your Highness credible?"

She looked at the prince with a weak heart and replied tentatively.

Facing the prince's slender eyes, there are a few big characters written in them.

Do you think I'm like a fool?

Gu Jinzhao coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment.

"Actually, I received a letter from my master, who told me that there were abducted and trafficked children in the yard and asked me to save people."

Her master is a very famous heavenly illusion old man in the rivers and lakes, and she is close friends with the prince's master, so the two have known each other since childhood.

The identity of her little apprentice of the Heavenly Illusion Old Man is known to only a few people in this world, and even everyone in the Hou Mansion does not know.

Sure enough, he pulled out his own master, and the prince believed a little.

"It's just that I didn't expect that those people are more powerful than the master said. If it weren't for His Royal Highness's rescue, the courtiers would not have escaped so easily. ”

Lu Yanshuo's eyes fell on Gu Jinzhao, who looked flattering, and was skeptical of her words, but he didn't plan to continue to embarrass him.

"The person has been rescued, you don't have to meddle in this matter anymore."

Gu Jinzhao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and immediately nodded.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the courtiers have always been in Nanshan Temple and have never left here."

Lu Yanshuo's fingers rubbed the jade pendant on his waist a few times, and he bowed slightly.

"Your Highness, can the courtiers go back to their own courtyard to rest? After leaving for a long time, I was afraid that the maid who was waiting for me was worried. ”

Gu Jinzhao lifted the quilt, her arm was no longer so painful, she had to go back quickly.

Seeing her urgency, Lu Yanshuo nodded.

got the promise, Gu Jinzhao put on his shoes and ran faster than a rabbit.

Out of the Qingxin Xiaozhu, she found a little monk to ask for directions, and soon returned to her small courtyard.

She entered through the back door and watched jump out of the window into the inner room. As soon as I entered, I heard the voices of Aunt Nan and Si Hua outside.

"Is the big girl awake?"

Si Hua has been guarding the door, Yuqi has come back before, she knows that the girl is injured, and now she is building with the prince in Qingxin, and she can't let Aunt Nan in.

Before she could think of an excuse to send Aunt Nan, Gu Jinzhao's voice came from the house.

"Is Aunt Nan here? Please come in, Aunt Nan. ”

Si Hua's heart was relieved, and the girl came back in a hurry. She stepped out of the way and led Aunt Nan into the house.

In the room, Gu Jinzhao looked like he had just woken up, sleepy-eyed, and was taking the tea cup handed over by Yuqi, taking small sips of tea.

"Aunt Nan, do you have something to look for me?"

Aunt Nan sat on the chair on the side, took the tea handed over by Yuqi and took a sip before slowly speaking.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down to Nanshan Temple, and I heard that he was injured. A few days ago, there were mountain bandits in the Yushan Forest not far from Nanshan Temple, which was not very safe. ”

Gu Jinzhao held the teacup in his hand, and the prince was injured? Mountain bandits?

Aren't those people traffickers?

Suppressing the many doubts in his heart, Gu Jinzhao put down the tea cup in his hand.

"What else does my aunt want to say?"

"I've already asked someone to send a message to Master Hou, and when we go back, we will send more people to escort us back."

Aunt Nan pursed her lips, she always felt uneasy in her heart. As if something was going to happen, her instincts had always been accurate, and she had been dodging danger many times.

"Everything is up to my aunt." Thanks to someone to escort them back, it does have an extra guarantee, and she will not refuse.

Besides, those people today really don't look like human traffickers, nor like the mountain bandits in Aunt Nan's mouth, but more like well-trained people......

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is recuperating in Nanshan Temple, let's not mess around in the temple these days."

Aunt Nan was a little worried about it, it was really the eldest girl in their family who was stalking the prince, and she was really afraid that she would run to disturb the prince.

The corners of Gu Jinzhao's mouth twitched, making everyone believe that it was so difficult for her to let go of the prince?
