The prince loves me like his life, but I force him to rebel

Looking at the strange clothes that Lin Heng brought from the laundry room, even the knowledgeable Sima Yao couldn't figure out what they were.

"The maid in the laundry room saw it and said she had never seen fabric that could be pulled like this." Lin Heng said as he picked up Gu Nianzhi's underwear and pulled it to show Sima Yao.

"It's really magical." Sima Yao touched it carefully. The texture of the fabric was indeed unique.

"I guess Mr. Gu is so anxious because he is worried about losing these two precious clothes."

"Since Mr. Gu is worried, let's send them back to him. By the way, we can also ask him what these rare items are." Sima Yao was amazed and handed the two "treasure clothes" to the maid beside him. The maid carefully put them on the tray and followed Sima Yao to Gu Nianzhi's residence.

I hope the laundry lady is not a talkative person. Gu Nianzhi walked around the room. His mind was in a mess.

If I act too nervous, I will arouse unnecessary suspicion. But if I don't take the underwear back quickly, what if the maids find out what the underwear is used for... Although they are not from the same dynasty, the things used by women are similar. Although the styles and materials are different, but...

Just as he was worrying, the maid came with a message.

"The third prince has arrived."

Gu Nianzhi quickly opened the door and went to greet him.

The clothes on Gu Nianzhi were a little big, but the exquisite material made her look radiant.

"Mr. Gu, you've been traveling a long way. Do you feel better after taking a shower?"

"Thank you for your careful arrangements, Your Highness. I am very grateful." Gu Nianzhi bowed and saluted, imitating the way in ancient costume dramas.

When she stood up, the maid came forward and found her underwear on the tray!

“This…” Gu Nianzhi felt terrible. She stared with her eyes wide open, not knowing what Sima Yao meant by this.

"I think this must be Mr. Gu's most important thing." Sima Yao saw Gu Nianzhi so surprised and thought that he was excited about finding a lost treasure.

"That's it, that's it..." Gu Nianzhi responded awkwardly. Just as he was about to take the tray from the maid, Sima Yao reached out and picked up the small underwear. He looked at it with interest and asked, "Mr. Gu, I have never seen such fabric before. May I ask what it is?"

Gu Nianzhi simply wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

She forced a smile and watched Sima Yao curiously pinching the thin sponge on the chest of her small bra.

"This... this is me... me..." Gu Nianzhi muttered to himself, God, can you let me go back at this moment? I promise to do good deeds every day in the future...

"This style looks a bit like the self-defense armor used on the battlefield, but the fabric is softer." Lin Heng said casually.

"Yes! Guard Lin has good eyesight!" Gu Nianzhi said loudly and exaggeratedly: "This is exactly the body armor I am wearing next to my body!"

Gu Nianzhi took the small bra from Sima Yao and began to explain like a shopping guide on a live broadcast: "This part is thickened and placed on the chest. It can protect the chest when encountering daily attacks. The fabric of the rest of the parts is elastic. Once injured, it can quickly wrap the wound and stop the bleeding."

"This design is very clever." Sima Yao exclaimed.

"This one works on the same principle. It can protect the lower abdomen." Gu Nianzhi grabbed her underwear from the tray and smiled awkwardly, "The chest and lower abdomen are the most important parts of the human body, so this set of self-defense clothing may seem thin, but it is very effective."

"Very good, very good!" Lin Heng also praised: "I have never seen such a wonderful design. If we can let the soldiers on the front line wear this kind of self-defense clothing, and match it with our armor, we will definitely be invincible!"

"No!" Gu Nianzhi quickly stopped Lin Heng's association.

If all the soldiers in the army were really wearing women's suspenders and briefs under their armor, the picture would be eye-catching...

"Why?"

"Your Highness and Guard Lin don't know that this thing is very expensive. The raw materials for making this cloth must be calcined and stretched at high temperature, then mixed with cotton thread one by one, and then crocheted into cloth. Even an experienced master needs several years to make a set. What's more, the person who obtained this method is no longer alive, and the manufacturing method has long been lost. This set of mine was also passed down by my master's master's master." Make it up, Gu Nianzhi, you can do it. Gu Nianzhi encouraged himself.

"No wonder Mr. Gu is so concerned about this dress." Lin Heng said.

"That's right, that's right." Gu Nianzhi smiled very fakely, "There is only one such set in the world, only one such set..."

"It's time for dinner, so please put away your precious clothes, Mr. Gu, and come with me to have dinner."

"Okay." Gu Nianzhi turned his head and changed from a fake smile mask to a painful mask.

Oh my god, my cheap set of underwear turned out to be a priceless treasure certified by the prince of the Da Sheng Dynasty.

This world of travel is so exciting and magical!

-----

Since Gu Nianzhi's identity was still uncertain, this dinner was nominally a welcoming banquet, but only the Third Prince, Lin Heng, and Gu Nianzhi were present.

The food on the table was rich, but the seemingly careless words of the Third Prince and Lin Heng were actually probing Gu Nianzhi's true intentions.

This made Gu Nianzhi's appetite for food drop by half.

During the meal, Sima Yao winked at Lin Heng, and Lin Heng immediately began to ask questions.

"The Empress Defei sent Mr. Gu to assist His Highness. She must have a deep friendship with him?" Gu Nianzhi naturally knew their purpose. When she was alone, she had already reviewed the plot of the book.

"I grew up in the temple. A few years ago, Yincheng was hit by a plague. My master and I went there, hoping to save the people of the world with our own strength, but we were infected with the plague. Fortunately, I met Empress Defei. I was fortunate to be treated by Empress Defei's kindness, so I have been able to survive until now. Empress Defei and I get along well. It just so happens that the monk in Lingyin Temple is my master's uncle. Therefore, a few days ago, under our recommendation, Empress Defei went to Lingyin Temple to practice. However, Empress Defei plans to go to Guanzhou Yunlai Temple. I think she should have set off in the past few days."

"Guanzhou?" Sima Yao and Lin Heng exchanged glances.

In recent days, Concubine De has indeed been in Lingyin Temple, and today's letter was indeed delivered to Lingyin Temple.

It takes five days to travel from the capital to Lingyin Temple by horseback, and ten days for the round trip.

If it is at Yunlai Temple in Guanzhou, the fastest round trip would take at least 15 days.

However, the person who delivered the letter did not know that Concubine De had already left Yunyin Temple, and the round trip to Guanzhou would take even longer.

The most important thing is that Concubine De is currently on her way from Lingyin Temple to Yunlai Temple. Judging from her personality, it may take her two or three months to reach her destination.

This means that in the next two or three months, Concubine De's whereabouts will be uncertain, and it is not realistic to confirm Gu Nianzhi's identity through her letters in a short period of time.

Gu Nianzhi knew that given Sima Yao's cautiousness, he would definitely write to Concubine De as soon as possible to verify the authenticity of her identity, but fortunately, Concubine De moved to Yunlai Temple, buying her time.

Two or three months, that’s such a long time, maybe I can travel back in two or three days.

Thinking of this, Gu Nianzhi was actually secretly glad.

——Luckily I didn’t skip the first two hundred chapters of this book.
