Rebirth: The flatterer prince I raised couldn't be so clingy

"You are a person who is always causing trouble but not good at doing anything. I asked you to wash and chop the radish leaves and stir-fry them. Look at what you have done!"

Nanny Liu started to curse at everyone, then took a plate of exquisite stir-fried dishes from the stove and threw it on the table.

Gu Qingzhi looked in the direction she was looking, not knowing what was going on, and immediately saw a few melon seed shells mixed in with the dish.

"I don't know why your mouth is so idle every day. If you don't crack those melon seeds for a moment, will you die?"

Aunt Liu cursed and picked up a piece of vegetable leaf and placed it in front of the two men.

"There's still mud on the leaves of this vegetable, and you put it in the pot without even looking at it. You don't even want to eat this dish, so how dare you let Your Highness eat it?"

When Nanny Liu turned around and found Gu Qingzhi standing behind her, she calmed down a little.

"Guard Xiao Gu is here. Your Highness's meal will be served later. Please sit aside and rest for a while."

The old woman started to work as she spoke.

Gu Qingzhi scratched her head. Seeing that Aunt Liu was very angry, she felt that it would be inappropriate for her to just stand by and watch, so she stood up to help.

Gu Qingzhi was helping in the kitchen, Wu Fang went back to his room and went to sleep, the servants and maids were all busy with their own things, and there was no one moving in the yard at this time.

No one noticed that the door leading to the main house from the villa was suddenly opened, and two figures sneaked in.

Liu Ming followed the servant Qi Shun and looked around the villa, speaking in a low voice.

"What kind of shabby place is this? Why does it look like a refugee settlement? There's even a vegetable patch? Qishun, where do you think that abandoned kid should be?"

Qi Shun looked around and confidently analyzed for Liu Ming: "The smoke coming out of that place must be the kitchen, and that place with clothes hanging out to dry must be where the maids and servants live. That's the only place..."

As he spoke, he pointed to the back hall facing the vegetable garden.

"No way? A prince lives right next to a vegetable garden?" Liu Ming didn't believe it.

"But this place is the cleanest, spotless." Qishun stated his own reasoning.

Liu Ming understood what he said: "Oh - if you put it that way, then it's almost right."

Qi Shun made a gesture to silence him, "Shh! Master, keep your voice down. Don't let him hear you."

Liu Ming quickly stopped talking and nodded.

The two of them walked stealthily towards the back hall. Liu Ming noticed that Qishun had a cloth bag on his back, and something was moving inside it. He became curious.

"I just wanted to ask, what good stuff have you prepared?"

Qi Shun smiled and looked mysterious.

"In our southern Yunnan, there are large tracts of rainforest that are very dense, and there are many insects and ants. After living there for a long time, we are not afraid of anything. Do you know what we are afraid of encountering in the rainforest?"

Liu Ming shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

"It's snakes, especially those that can climb trees. Most of them are poisonous."

Qi Shun took off the pocket on his back and held it in his hand, then opened a small hole and motioned Liu Ming to look inside.

With just one glance, the densely packed and swirling scales frightened Liu Ming so much that he shrank his neck.

"Is this snake... poisonous?" He licked his lips and asked guiltily.

"Of course! So if you are lucky today, you might be able to see that little evil star die from the poison. That would be exciting."

It would have been fine if he hadn't said anything. After hearing this, Liu Ming's heart started beating even more nervously: "Wait...wait, what if we get discovered?"

Qi Shun laughed, "Master, what are you worried about? Since he was driven out of the palace by the emperor, he must have been completely abandoned. Besides, this is the prime minister's residence. Even if the truth comes out, who would know that you have been to the villa?"

After hearing what he said, Liu Ming felt less worried and more excited about what was about to happen.

As the two were talking, they had already arrived under the window of the back hall. Qi Shun skillfully poked a hole in the window paper to confirm that Feng Zhanye was indeed inside, and then he picked up the venomous snake in his hand and placed it at the hole.

The small snake, as thick as a finger, was covered with spots and its scales glowed green as it crawled into the cave through the entrance.

Feng Zhanye was practicing calligraphy in the center of the room at this time, and he didn't notice anything coming in through the window.

With the help of Qishun, Liu Ming hid on the roof, while Qishun himself hid in a hole behind the house to observe the situation inside the house.

I saw the little snake sliding down the window, swaying left and right, as if looking for its target.

It stuck out its tongue, raised its triangular snake head, and observed quietly without making any sound.

Soon it discovered Feng Zhanye, and after stopping for a moment, it meandered towards him.

The little snake wrapped its body around the table legs until it climbed onto the table and stopped next to the inkstone.

Snake Eyes stared coldly at the person in front of the table until the young man reached out and dipped the brush in his hand into ink.

Feng Zhanye didn't notice anything unusual at first, until he turned his head and felt something reflecting light on the edge of the table, then he paid attention to it.

A small snake tilted its head and stared at him with its eyes.

It seemed to realize that it had been discovered and made a hissing sound to scare him.

Before he could react, it opened its mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, and shot towards him at an extremely fast speed, about to bite his wrist.

Feng Zhanye screamed, dropped the pen in his hand, and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, he dodged quickly enough, and the falling pen hit the snake's head with a "pop", causing the snake's body to fall down, but it did not actually bite him.

But the snake landed right on his robe, and he was so frightened that he dared not move.

Seeing that it was still approaching him, Feng Zhanye wanted to run but he was unable to move. In a blink of an eye, the snake had wrapped around his chest and opened its mouth to bite his neck.

Gu Qingzhi was about to go in with food in her hands, but when she heard the noise in the house, she pushed the door open and saw Feng Zhanye sitting on the ground, staring at the snake on his chest with horror.

She didn't even care about the food in her hands falling to the ground, and rushed forward in two steps.

When the fangs were only an inch away from the boy's neck, he grabbed the snake's tail and swung it away.

Feng Zhanye then realized that his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

Almost, just a little bit, his life would have ended here.

After the shock, his whole body felt weak and he no longer cared to restrain himself. He threw himself into Gu Qingzhi's arms as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Although the boy was thin, he still had some weight.

Gu Qingzhi was knocked half to the ground by him, and had no choice but to pat his back to comfort him.

"It's okay, don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."

The soft embrace carried the unique fresh scent of Guard Gu. He buried his head deeply in her neck and shoulders and took a deep breath before slowly calming down.

Looking at the frightened Feng Zhanye in her arms, Gu Qingzhi comforted him while looking around for the poisonous snake, feeling more and more that something was wrong.

This is not a deep mountain or old forest, how could a poisonous snake come in?

It wasn't until she saw the hole in the window paper that she made her inference.

It seems that it is man-made again.

She looked around carefully and found no other traces.

If you dare to do something, you must bear the corresponding consequences.
