"How dare you barge into the young lady's room? Get out now!"

When Liao Qinglan went to Jinyu Tower and met Gu Mingzhao on the Qiqiao Festival, Jinxiu did not follow her and did not know what happened between them.

In Jinxiu's opinion, this person had disappeared for a long time and suddenly appeared in the young lady's room inexplicably.

When Liao Qinglan came back, everyone in the yard was busy with their own things and obviously hadn't noticed any trace of Gu Mingzhao.

He was actually able to get past the heavy guards at the Prime Minister's Mansion and enter his own room without anyone noticing.

Liao Qinglan has a clearer understanding of his current skills.

"Jinxiu, please step back first." Liao Qinglan ordered.

"Miss! How can you be alone with him? It's too dangerous!" Jinxiu was really worried.

"It's okay, just guard the door for me and don't let anyone in." Liao Qinglan was very determined.

Although Jinxiu was full of worries, she had no choice but to obey her orders. She stood at the door, with her ear pressed against the door, paying attention to the movements inside.

In the room, Liao Qinglan didn't want to look at Gu Mingzhao in a good mood. He kissed her without any warning yesterday, which made her unable to sleep well all night. She was still angry.

Liao Qinglan made herself a cup of tea, took a sip, and then said slowly: "Mr. Gu, why are you here?"

"Why are you with Wang Tingzhi?"

When Liao Qinglan heard this question, her anger grew even greater.

I thought he came to explain his behavior yesterday, but I didn't expect him to ask some irrelevant questions.

She put down the teacup and looked at Gu Mingzhao coldly: "You came here just to ask this?"

Gu Mingzhao nodded.

"The Queen summoned me to the palace, and he's here to pick me up. Are you ready to go?"

Liao Qinglan answered his question and then ordered him to leave.

"So, you have nothing to do with him?" Gu Mingzhao continued to ask.

Liao Qinglan felt like she was being interrogated, and said unhappily, "What does this have to do with you?"

"I thought you should understand my intention."

Gu Mingzhao noticed that Liao Qinglan was angry, so he softened his tone and spoke in a low voice.

These words, which sounded like a confession, made Liao Qinglan's heart skip a beat.

She couldn't help but look up and look at Gu Mingzhao.

He had a handsome face and his eyes were gentle and deep, as if they could accommodate all her joys, sorrows, anger and happiness.

All the grievances that she had suffered from him in two lifetimes seemed to be able to be vented at this moment.

"You clearly told me before to stay away from people like you." Liao Qinglan said in a muffled voice.

"Yes, but later I realized that I couldn't leave you." Gu Mingzhao sighed, "When I was in Jinyulou, all I thought about every day was how to get out as soon as possible and how to be worthy of you."

The sudden confession made Liao Qinglan's cheeks slightly hot.

His voice was full of temptation, making her want to get closer and touch him.

"Aren't you afraid that I might have other intentions now? Are you playing any tricks again... like you did to the daughter of the prefect of Qingzhou..."

Gu Mingzhao was speechless.

Suddenly I felt very regretful for revealing all my past to her, which made her have such thoughts.

Gu Mingzhao approached her, took her hand, and gently stroked the back of her hand: "Even if you have other intentions, as long as you have what I want, I will do whatever you want."

Liao Qinglan felt the warmth in his palm and didn't know how to react.

After her rebirth, she has not thought about her marriage.

I had suffered enough from the pain of love in my previous life, and in this life I just want to find someone from a lower family so that I won’t be bullied when I marry him in the future. I just want to be with him for the rest of my life.

Without her help, Gu Mingzhao was granted the title of King of Qin in his previous life with his crippled body, forced the emperor to rebel and ascended the throne.

And now, under her careful care, Gu Mingzhao is in good health and has an outstanding temperament.

He went to a martial arts competition and acquired some good martial arts skills.

She really didn't believe that she would be the only woman by Gu Mingzhao's side in the future.

Among the ones she had heard and seen were the daughter of the prefect of Qingzhou, Ruyan from Zuihonglou, and Qin Xiaoxiao, the daughter of the richest man.

What's more, he had witnessed with his own eyes the girls in Jinyulou going crazy for him.

No matter how you look at it, Gu Mingzhao is not a good match for her.

Thinking of this, she looked away, not daring to look into Gu Mingzhao's passionate and affectionate eyes, for fear that she would sink into them.

"Gu Mingzhao, I'm sorry, I can't respond to you."

She pulled her hand free and whispered.

No reason, no explanation.

Just whispered sorry.

Gu Mingzhao couldn't believe what he heard.

It was obvious that she was the one taking the initiative.

It was clearly her who showed her goodwill again and again.

It was she who made herself believe that there was at least one person in this world who truly wanted the best for him.

Is it really as Qingfeng said, that I am just one of the fish in her pond?

"Why? Because of Wang Tingzhi?"

Gu Mingzhao narrowed his eyes and asked dangerously.

"It has nothing to do with him, it's my own problem!"

Liao Qinglan knew his capabilities and was afraid that he would make another mistake and implicate innocent people.

But to Gu Mingzhao's ears, her words sounded more like she was protecting Wang Tingzhi.

There was a long silence, and Gu Mingzhao stared at her intently.

It was as if he wanted to cut open her heart and see what was inside.

Liao Qinglan's eyes were evasive, as if she refused to talk any more.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Mingzhao suddenly burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay, okay. I understand." Gu Mingzhao muttered to himself in a self-deprecating manner and left Liao Qinglan's room.

As soon as the door opened, Jinxiu hurried in, took her young lady to look left and right, and only felt relieved after making sure that everything was fine.

"Miss, I'm scared to death! I'll notify the guards right away and ask them to strengthen the guard and be on guard against Gu Mingzhao!"

"No, he won't come again."

*

After Gu Mingzhao left, Liao Qinglan's life returned to normal again.

She went to the palace every day without fail to take Queen Wang's pulse.

After returning home, he spent most of his time looking for Mo Wang and discussing medical skills with his master.

Occasionally when he went out, he would disguise himself as a medicine boy and go to Cheng Yuan's shop with his master to see patients.

She is also used to this kind of life without caring about worldly affairs.

The prosperity and hustle and bustle of the capital seemed to have nothing to do with her anymore.

Liao Qinglan seldom attended the various banquets often held by the noble ladies in the capital.

After staying in seclusion for a long time, a rumor began to spread in the capital:

The daughter of the prime minister has been chosen as the daughter-in-law of Wang Clan of Langya.

Liao Qinglan had naturally heard of it as well.

Fortunately, Wang Tingzhi was appointed to the Censorate. As soon as he took office, he followed the Chief Censor on a patrol southward and was away from the capital for most of the year.

Otherwise, if I really met Wang Tingzhi, I would feel somewhat uncomfortable.

These rumors also have many benefits.

At least Li Jin and Duke Zheng had been quiet for a long time and never bothered her again.
