Regent, your poisonous concubine is going to defy the heavens

After Yinhuan left, Gu Zhixiao dismissed the maids kneeling in the front hall, "All of you go down."

"Yes." The maids quickly stood up and stepped back.

Gu Zhixiao looked at Mo Jingheng inside, took a deep breath, and then walked in.

"The third prince." Gu Zhixiao's gentle voice sounded.

Mo Jingheng was sitting on a chair at this time, with his back to Gu Zhixiao.

Gu Zhixiao walked forward slowly and turned in front of Mo Jingheng. Seeing that Mo Jingheng's face was very gloomy at the moment, she had never seen Mo Jingheng so angry.

Then he pursed his lips and said: "Sister..."

Mo Jingheng suddenly grabbed Gu Zhixiao's slender wrist, "You won't betray me, will you?"

He looked at Gu Zhixiao with a sinister look, as if he would kill her immediately if Gu Zhixiao could not give the answer he wanted.

Gu Zhixiao was startled and was about to pull his hand out of Mo Jingheng's, but Mo Jingheng tightened his grip a little more and said coldly: "Answer me!"

Gu Zhixiao felt pain in her hand, but she endured the pain and patiently replied: "Since Zhixiao is your wife, she will not betray you."

Mo Jingheng's expression relaxed after hearing this. He stopped exerting force with his hands, put his arm around Gu Zhixiao's waist, and rested his head in Gu Zhixiao's arms.

Like a bullied child seeking comfort, Gu Zhixiao gently patted Mo Jingheng on the back and said softly: "Since some people can't be kept after all, letting them go is the best outcome."

Mo Jingheng didn't say anything, and his hold on Gu Zhixiao tightened a little.

He murmured, "Actually, I have feelings for her."

"Ok, I know."

Mo Jingheng looked up at Gu Zhixiao and asked doubtfully, "I said I have feelings for her, aren't you disappointed?"

Gu Zhixiao smiled and shook his head, "Any man will have three wives and four concubines. If I get jealous of all of them, wouldn't I become a jealous jar?"

Mo Jingheng buried his head in his ears again, smelling the faint fragrance on Gu Zhixiao's body. It smelled very good, like the scent of some flower, but he couldn't tell which kind of flower it was.

"What kind of incense are you wearing? It smells so good."

"It's just an ordinary fragrance."

Mo Jingheng shook his head, "No, I have never smelled the fragrance like you." Then he raised his head and looked at Gu Zhixiao.

Gu Zhixiao smiled generously, "If the Third Prince likes to smell it, I will ask Yinhuan to send some over tomorrow."

"No, this fragrance suits you better."

Yinhuan stood outside the door holding the nourishing soup, "Third Concubine, the nourishing soup is ready."

Gu Zhixiao immediately came out of Mo Jingheng's arms, looked at the silver ring and said, "Bring it in."

"Yes." Yinhuan respectfully placed the nourishing soup on the table.

Gu Zhixiao said to Mo Jingheng: "Third Prince, drink some soup to relax your mind, be careful not to hurt yourself."

Mo Jingheng obediently picked up the nourishing soup on the table and took a sip, and Yinhuan tactfully withdrew.

After a while, Mo Jingheng put the soup aside and said in a low voice: "Zhixiao, you are the only one by my side now, you can't betray me."

Gu Zhixiao chuckled. At this moment, she felt that the Third Prince was like a child, so she nodded and agreed, "Okay."

Mo Jingheng smiled with satisfaction after hearing the satisfactory answer, but in his heart he was thinking that he had to quickly get the General to stand on his side so that his retreat would not be cut off. He also had to quickly take his mother out of the cold palace. He had not yet gotten rid of the regent and got Su Shengsheng.

All these require manpower and a certain amount of power. Thinking of the task that his father had given him to receive princes from various countries, he cheered up again.

Then he stood up and said, "Zhixiao, I didn't know how good you are before and was blinded by Su Qingqing. Now I realize how good you are. I apologize to you."

"Third Prince, you are too polite. I was the one who insisted on marrying you. I don't blame you."

"My Third Consort is really sensible." Mo Jingheng took Gu Zhixiao's hand with relief.

Gu Zhixiao didn't say anything else, but what he was thinking in his heart was that since Su Qingqing had betrayed the Third Prince, he was the only person he could trust. No matter what happened before, as long as the two of them were fine in the future, it would be fine.

Mo Jingheng did not stay in the front hall. Remembering that the princes from various countries would be arriving tomorrow, he went back to the study to busy himself. Gu Zhixiao ordered people to tidy up the front hall again.

The Grand Prince's Mansion.

Su Qingqing helped Mo Jingsu lie down on the bed distressedly, "Jingsu, slow down."

Mo Jingsu endured the pain and lay down. He opened his half-closed eyes, looked at Su Qingqing apologetically and said, "Qingqing, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I couldn't give you a name."

Su Qingqing held Mo Jingsu's hand and smiled, shaking her head, "Don't say that. You saved me. If you hadn't tried your best to protect me, I would probably be a corpse."

Mo Jingsu propped himself up and sat up, promising: "Qingqing, I promise you, when the time is right, I will definitely ask my father to make you his legal wife."

Su Qingqing nodded after hearing this, and then helped Mo Jingsu down, "Slow down, I'll apply medicine for you."

The maid brought the medicine in, and Su Qingqing took it and applied it to Mo Jingsu. While applying the medicine, she asked in a gentle voice, "Are you okay from those two kicks?"

Mo Jingsu looked at Su Qingqing who cared about him so much, smiled and shook his head, "It's okay."

Su Qingqing pressed hard on Mo Jingsu's chest with the hand that was applying the medicine.

"Hiss..." Mo Jingsu covered his chest and frowned, "It hurts."

Su Qingqing pretended to be angry and said, "You said it was okay." Then she put the medicine aside and said to the maid next to her, "Go and get the doctor."

The maid bowed slightly and retreated.

Mo Jingsu suddenly became serious, "Who do you think was responsible for what happened in Yufu Palace today?"

Su Qingqing thought about it seriously. She didn't see the Regent and Su Shengsheng at the banquet. She was not sure if it was Su Shengsheng who did it. If it was Su Shengsheng who did it, then why didn't Su Shengsheng appear from beginning to end?

Suddenly, Gu Zhixiao's image flashed in his mind, and then he looked at Mo Jingsu, "Could it be Gu Zhixiao who did it?"

Mo Jingsu frowned slightly, "Gu Zhixiao?" Then he shook his head and said, "The daughter of the state-guarding general is gentle and elegant, she shouldn't do such an outrageous thing."

When Su Qingqing heard Mo Jingsu praising Gu Zhixiao, she said angrily, "What do you mean? Do you think Gu Zhixiao is better than me?"

Mo Jingsu then realized that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately changed his words: "Gu Zhixiao is timid and cowardly, how can he compare to you in any way."

"I'm telling you, Jingsu, you'll never know how far a woman can go for a man she loves, so don't underestimate Gu Zhixiao."

Mo Jingsu asked seriously, "Then how far will you go for me?"

Su Qingqing gently lay in Mo Jingsu's arms and said softly: "If you treat me very well, I will give you 20% back. If you treat me very badly, I will give you double the amount."

"I will definitely treat you twice as well as ten times better."

Su Qingqing lay in Mo Jingsu's arms and laughed, "Jingsu, since His Majesty won't let me use my name, then you can give me one."

Mo Jingsu asked uncertainly, "Are you willing?"

"Well, since I'm following you, I don't want to have any contact with the Third Prince's Mansion."
