The daughter of the emperor was reborn and was spoiled by the sickly prince.

At night.

There were still the largest number of guards outside Wang Tingzhi's tent.

He was just as relaxed and casual as Gu Mingzhao was when he visited at night a few days ago.

They were either sitting or leaning, whispering to each other and playing around from time to time.

Gu Mingzhao, the new chief guard, standing here did not pose any deterrent effect to them at all.

It was late at night, and most of the candles in other tents had been extinguished and everyone was asleep.

A woman in red walked out of a tent nearby.

As soon as she came out, the guards who had been crooked just now stood up straight and saluted her respectfully.

"Meet Miss Qin."

The woman's red dress was as bright as fire, very eye-catching in the night.

She looked no more than twenty years old, with a pretty face, but there was a hint of sadness between her brows, and she seemed to be worried about something.

But she obviously didn't want to bother with these guards and didn't even glance over at them.

Seeing that she was holding a medicine box in her hand, Gu Mingzhao immediately realized that this was the person who gave Wang Ting medicine every day.

The woman walked hurriedly, running straight towards the curtain of the tent.

"stop."

Gu Mingzhao stood in front of the door dutifully, blocking her way.

"How dare you stop me? You..."

The woman was just about to see which blind guard dared to stop her.

When I saw his face clearly, I was slightly stunned.

"Long Yin? Why are you here?" the woman in red asked

Gu Mingzhao felt a little helpless and speechless.

Suddenly I felt that Liao Qinglan was a little unreliable.

I clearly told him before that he had only used the identity of Long Yin in Jinyu Tower, and few people would know him.

In just one day, I met two people who knew "Long Yin".

"Who are you?" Gu Mingzhao asked.

"I, Qin Xiaoxiao, spent a huge amount of money on you in Jinyulou, and now you ask me who I am?" Qin Xiaoxiao opened her eyes wide and looked at her in disbelief.

At the beginning, she spent 200,000 taels to buy Tai'a, hoping to exchange it for Long Yin's loyalty to her. Unexpectedly, Long Yin refused to budge, which made her so angry that she gave the sword to Lu Renjia.

Gu Mingzhao was also slightly surprised when he heard the name.

Isn’t this the daughter of Qin Yunhan that Liao Qinglan mentioned before?

What a coincidence, meeting her here!

However, Gu Mingzhao is not clear about her background and will not act rashly.

So no further words were spoken.

Seeing that he was silent, Qin Xiaoxiao felt that Long Yin didn't take her seriously at all, so she couldn't help but sarcastically said, "Heh, I asked you to follow me at the beginning, but you refused. Why are you running here now to serve others?"

"Don't worry about my business, young lady." Gu Mingzhao was not angry at her words at all, and said lightly.

"You're not worth my bother. Get out of the way. I want to go in."

Gu Mingzhao shook his head: "Lord An has ordered that I must keep an eye on the people in the tent. Miss, please go back."

Gu Mingzhao stood in front of the tent door, refusing to move an inch.

Qin Xiaoxiao wanted to force her way in, but Gu Mingzhao was like an insurmountable mountain, leaving her helpless.

The two were in a stalemate and the atmosphere was tense.

An older guard saw Qin Xiaoxiao's angry expression and stepped forward to smooth things over: "Lord Long, you don't know that this Miss Qin is Lord An's guest of honor. Lord An once said that Miss Qin doesn't need to be stopped wherever she wants to go."

"But the adults also said that we should keep an eye on the people inside."

"Look, Lord An's order is to keep an eye on the people inside, but he didn't say not to let anyone else in. People have to learn to be flexible, don't you agree?"

Gu Mingzhao had no intention of actually stopping her.

He pretended to think about it, then said reluctantly: "I can let you in, but I have to go with you."

"Do you suspect me?" Qin Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, obviously unwilling to have anyone follow her.

Gu Mingzhao did not comment.

"I come here every day and nothing goes wrong." Qin Xiaoxiao said.

"I just want to make sure everything is safe."

Although Qin Xiaoxiao was unhappy, she had met Long Yin in Jinyulou and knew that this person would not respond to any tricks or suggestions and would be very difficult to deal with.

If you want to see Wang Tingzhi today, you must let him come with you.

Qin Xiaoxiao compromised and said, "Since you want to follow, then follow me. I warn you, after you go in, keep your mouth shut and don't talk nonsense."

Gu Mingzhao stepped aside to make way.

Qin Xiaoxiao walked into the tent.

In the tent, Wang Tingzhi was still sitting on the edge of the bed, his eyes closed and his face pale.

Hearing footsteps, he opened his eyes and smiled at the door: "Girl, you're here."

Qin Xiaoxiao quickly walked to his side, opened the medicine box, and took out gauze and ointment.

She wiped Wang Tingzhi's wound attentively and skillfully and applied ointment.

She didn't say a word during the whole process.

Gu Mingzhao stood aside, staring at Qin Xiaoxiao's every move.

His vigilant and scrutinizing eyes made Qin Xiaoxiao feel uneasy, and she couldn't help but speed up her movements.

"Girl, aren't you here alone today?" Wang Tingzhi suddenly asked.

After he lost his sight, his hearing became extremely sensitive. He could tell from the footsteps that two people had just come in.

Qin Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, then returned to normal.

There was silence in the room.

Wang Tingzhi smiled bitterly and lowered his eyes slightly: "Another friend, can't you speak too? Or...you all don't want to pay attention to me..."

Gu Mingzhao: “…”

This guy is really good at pretending...

Gu Mingzhao tried his best to restrain himself from rolling his eyes at him.

Qin Xiaoxiao couldn't bear to see him so injured, so she glared at Gu Mingzhao and motioned for him to explain.

"Lord An only asked me to keep an eye on you, but he didn't ask me to chat with you." Gu Mingzhao said coldly.

"It turned out to be the guard from today..." Wang Tingzhi looked in the direction of Qin Xiaoxiao and tried to open his eyes wide, as if he wanted to see her clearly. "He was so fierce, did he embarrass you?"

Although Wang Tingzhi is blind, he is still a rare handsome man. His focused and affectionate gaze can easily make people's heart beat fast.

At least Qin Xiaoxiao's face had obviously turned red.

Perhaps because there were outsiders around, Qin Xiaoxiao didn't want others to see her embarrassment, so her hands moved faster and faster, and soon she had finished treating Wang Tingzhi's wounds.

She sorted out Wang Tingzhi's clothes, packed the medicine box, and got up to leave.

Gu Mingzhao walked her all the way to the door, gestured for her to leave.

Qin Xiaoxiao was about to leave, but she caught a glimpse of Gu Mingzhao turning around and preparing to re-enter the tent.

She was worried about Wang Tingzhi and asked nervously, "What are you doing in there again?"

"You stayed in there for so long just now, so of course I have to check carefully to see if you have hidden anything and passed it to him privately." Gu Mingzhao answered as a matter of course.

"Please."

No matter how dissatisfied Qin Xiaoxiao was, she could do nothing but snort coldly and turn away.
