264 I Advise You to Admit It As Soon As Possible
Rong Zhan was suddenly interested when he saw Gu Qingxue being so fearless.
Thus, Rong Zhan made a hand gesture to Ji Yan.
Ji Yan understood and retreated to the side, allowing Gu Qingxue to do as she pleased.
It was not just Ji Yan. The originally aggressive secret guards also retreated at the same time, obediently retreating to the side.
There was no joy on Princess Liuying’s face. There was only shock and disbelief in her eyes.
Everyone in Jing City knew that the prince regent had always been stubborn. Unless it was an imperial edict from the emperor, no one could change his decision!
Just now, the prince really wanted to punish her.
Just because of Gu Qingxue’s words, he changed his mind.
Princess Liuying thought of how she had been groveling ever since she stepped into the courtyard house. She wished she could rip out her heart and show it to Rong Zhan.
In order to get him, she even made everyone in Jing City laugh at her.
She pursued him crazily. She was not afraid of losing face because she was the best match for him. Her status, family background, and looks were good. Moreover, the empress dowager was the matchmaker.
She was obviously the best candidate for the princess regent, but she had never received any attention from Rong Zhan!
If Rong Zhan treated other women the same way, she could still tolerate it.
However, Gu Qingxue had become the exception! She had become the woman who could change Rong Zhan with one word!
Who was she, Gu Qingxue? A widow from a small village with three burdens. How could she compare to a princess like her? How could she be worthy of such a favored son of Heaven like the prince?
If the woman Rong Zhan liked was far more outstanding than her, she could still tolerate it, but she did not believe that she was inferior to Gu Qingxue!
Princess Liuying only felt a ball of jealous flames gushing out from her chest, almost bursting her whole body!
At this time, in the east wing room.
Miao Yin glanced at Gong Lingyu who was still sleeping on the bed, went up and patted her face lightly, “Princess, princess, you should wake up!”
However, Gong Lingyu did not move. If she was not still breathing, Miao Yin suspected that she wouldn’t be able to wake up again.
Miao Yin had been in the room with Gu Qingxue today. She knew very well that Lady Gu had done her best for the princess. She would never harm the princess!
“Lady Gu, what should we do next? When will the princess wake up?” Miao Yin asked anxiously.
“Not yet. I’ll go take a look outside.” Gu Qingxue pushed the door open and appeared in front of Princess Liuying.
Finally seeing this woman who made her so jealous that she went crazy, Princess Liuying looked at Gu Qingxue, trying to find some flaws in her body.
However, Princess Liuying did not find anything wrong with Gu Qingxue. She was like a fairy who had descended from the heavens. From her appearance to her temperament, she could be said to be perfect.
Gu Qingxue watched as Princess Liuying’s expression gradually distorted. Her gaze was as if she wanted to swallow her alive.
“Lady Gu, may I ask where the sixth princess is?” Princess Liuying was so angry that she laughed and asked coldly.
“The sixth princess is weak and hasn’t woken up yet. If you really care about the princess, please come back tomorrow so as not to disturb the princess’s rest.” Gu Qingxue’s tone was very gentle, and there was a coldness in her voice.
Princess Liuying sneered without holding back, “Lady Gu, don’t talk nonsense here. If the princess is safe and sound, why don’t you let us in? I advise you to confess your crime as soon as possible and admit that you harmed the sixth princess. The emperor and the empress dowager might be able to give you a lighter sentence and spare your family!”
Gu Qingxue could not help but sneer when she heard that.
Gong Lingyu had just finished her surgery, and her body was weak. She was more likely to get sick than usual. She had not woken up yet. If she had seen too many people at once and accidentally gotten infected by some bacteria, she would have to suffer, right?
