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

Gu Mingzhao confirmed that Qin Xiaoxiao had left, and with a stern look on his face, he instructed the guards at the door: "Watch this place, and don't allow any outsiders to enter."

After saying that, he turned around and walked back in.

Wang Tingzhi was still sitting there, straightened up, not daring to touch anything.

I was whipped today and the injuries were severe. The slightest touch of anything felt like a thousand needles piercing my body.

His face showed signs of fatigue, but he still forced himself to sit there, waiting for someone to come.

Wang Tingzhi knew that Gu Mingzhao would definitely come tonight.

Gu Mingzhao walked up to him and asked in a low voice: "How is your injury?"

"Logically, I should answer 'no problem', but I don't look like I'm fine."

Wang Tingzhi answered somewhat helplessly.

"Your Highness is really good at this. You can even sneak into a place like this. I am really impressed by you." Wang Tingzhi praised sincerely.

"Why did you deliberately provoke An Ruohuai today?"

"I almost forgot that His Highness has lost his memory and doesn't even recognize An Linglong."

"Just say what you want to say. If you don't want to be discovered, don't beat around the bush." ​​Gu Mingzhao was a little impatient.

Wang Tingzhi sighed: "I once suspected that An Linglong's injury was related to His Highness, but it was only a guess. An Linglong's horrified reaction when she saw His Highness today confirmed my guess."

"You mean, I knew that foolish woman before?"

"That's right." Wang Tingzhi nodded. "Although she is stupid, I have observed her during this period of time and her emotions rarely fluctuate. But when she saw His Highness today, the fear she showed was instinctive."

Gu Mingzhao pondered for a moment and said, "So you deliberately scolded An Linglong in order to divert An Ruohuai's attention and make him mistakenly think that An Linglong's abnormality was related to you?"

"That's right, you owe me a big favor." Wang Tingzhi said with a smile.

Gu Mingzhao frowned: "Since you know the identity of the owner here, why didn't you tell me last time?"

"An Ruohuai treated me like this because Miss Liao had deliberately misled him, making them think that I had sent someone to harm An Linglong. If she knew that all the suffering I've endured today was caused by her, do you think with her personality, she would still sit there and watch me being locked up here?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingzhao couldn't help but look at Wang Tingzhi with admiration.

I didn't expect that Wang Tingzhi had reached such a point that he not only had no resentment in his heart, but was also considerate of others. This was truly rare.

It seems that I underestimated him in the past.

"Wang Tingzhi, don't you have any complaints in your heart?" Gu Mingzhao couldn't help but ask.

"I was investigating the case of the missing workers, so I was left alone and killed by them. Even if I have any complaints, they are directed at those who hide in the gutter, not you or Miss Liao."

"After we get out, I will find a way to cure your eyes." Gu Mingzhao promised solemnly.

"Then thank you first." Wang Tingzhi paused and asked, "Does Your Highness know the identity of the person who comes here to apply medicine every day?"

"Her name is Qin Xiaoxiao, and she is the daughter of the richest man in Beijing."

"The daughter of the richest man? No wonder... I have been thinking that An Ruohuai is just a commoner. Even if she works for the second prince, where would she get so much money? If she has the support of the Qin family, then it makes sense."

"The Qin family is also a breakthrough point. Qin Xiaoxiao's father is also in the military camp. We met him on the way here. Maybe we can use her father to make her work for us."

"I didn't expect that you would have such an unexpected gain along the way."

Wang Tingzhi felt that Gu Mingzhao was truly a man of luck. He had gone through so much trouble to get just a tiny clue, but he found it without any effort.

The people you meet on the way here are not ordinary people, so you can have some adventures.

"I'll go back and discuss with Qinglan later to see how to tell Qin Yunhan."

"Then I'll leave this matter to Your Highness."

The two exchanged some information details, and Gu Mingzhao walked out.

An Ruohuai did not arrange any accommodation for him, so he should have been allowed to live in his original place.

Thinking that if they went back at this time, Liao Qinglan would probably have already rested, so Gu Mingzhao did not go back.

He faithfully guarded outside Wang Tingzhi's tent for a whole night.

The next morning, when the person on duty came to relieve him, he yawned and acted exhausted.

"I'll go back and rest for a while. You guys keep an eye on the people inside." Gu Mingzhao ordered.

The other guards exchanged strange glances and responded lazily with a perfunctory attitude.

*

Liao Qinglan didn't sleep well that night and got up at dawn.

She has been worried about Gu Mingzhao since he left yesterday.

Although Wu Mo told her that Gu Mingzhao had a new job and would not have as much free time as before.

However, in this dangerous place, she couldn't feel at ease until she confirmed with her own eyes whether Gu Mingzhao was safe or not.

She was waiting for Gu Mingzhao all night yesterday.

She would wake up suddenly at the slightest noise outside.

She was wondering whether she should ask Wu Mo for help and take her to see Gu Mingzhao.

Just then, a rough sound of kicking the door broke the silent air.

"Is this where Long Yin lives?"

A rough voice sounded at the door, full of provocation and disdain.

Qinglan's heart tightened and she quickly stood up to see who dared to be so rude here.

I saw three burly guards standing outside the door. The one leading them had a face full of flesh and a ferocious look.

It is obvious that the person who came has bad intentions.

He caught a glimpse of Liao Qinglan's figure and shouted, "Who are you to Long Yin? Are you living with him?"

Liao Qinglan remained calm and replied, "I am his brother. Who are you?"

After hearing this, the man couldn't help but sneer: "Humph, the elder brother has a greasy face and powdered hair, and the younger brother is thin and weak. You didn't get to this position by being a rabbit master, did you?"

Rabbit God, this is a folk insult, used to refer to men who use their beauty to please women.

A surge of anger surged in Liao Qinglan's heart.

Although Gu Mingzhao was good-looking, he was not feminine at all, so it was really unpleasant to hear them speak like that.

"Watch your mouth," she said coldly.

However, the three men seemed even more arrogant.

One of them pointed at Liao Qinglan's nose and yelled, "What? Are you afraid of what others say? If you didn't sleep with someone, how could you, with your small body, squeeze out the position of our Lord Lu's chief guard?"

"That's right! I'm going to avenge Lord Lu today!" another person echoed.

After saying that, they started to smash the house.

A series of ping-pong sounds were heard, and the originally tidy room instantly became a mess.

The sounds of shattering porcelain, collapsing tables and chairs, and their arrogant laughter were intertwined together.

Looking at the things that were smashed to pieces, she felt angry and helpless.

But she knew she was outnumbered and did not rush forward to stop it.

He could only clench his fists, grit his teeth, and said in a cold voice: "If you are dissatisfied with him, go find him. What kind of ability is it to come here and make a scene when he is not around?"

Seeing that she dared to talk back, the three men's faces became even more ferocious.

One of them even shouted angrily and raised his hand to attack Liao Qinglan.
