The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack: The Evil King's Doctor Consort's Ent

Chapter 73 Put me down!

Gu Lingzhi was furious: "Mo Jiuxiao, put me down right now!"

Mo Jiuxiao said quietly, "You think I'm no good anymore? I'll show you right now!"

Gu Lingzhi's face flushed instantly. She struggled fiercely, staring intently at Mo Jiuxiao.

Just as Mo Jiuxiao tightened his grip, intending to take the person away, Gu Lingzhi suddenly bit his arm.

Mo Jiuxiao winced in pain but did not let go. Just then, a commotion came from outside the door, and several figures appeared at the doorway.

The woman at the front wore a long, bright red dress and a glittering gold hairpin in her hair. Behind her were several maids dressed in green. The sheer scale of the procession was enough to draw attention.

Upon hearing the sound, Gu Lingzhi's gaze instinctively swept downwards, and the woman in red at the head of the group also looked up, their eyes meeting.

The woman froze in that instant.

After all, she was the emperor's chosen Ninth Prince's consort, and seeing the Ninth Prince entangled with a strange man would definitely not make her feel comfortable.

"Miss Sun, you cannot enter without the Prince's permission!"

The maid who was originally guarding outside the courtyard rushed in in a hurry, trying to stop Sun Qingrou and the others.

However, the maids standing next to Sun Qingrou blocked the way of the gatekeeper maid.

How dare you be disrespectful to my young lady?

Sun Qingrou's maids all raised their eyebrows and looked arrogant.

Sun Qingrou deliberately said, "All of you, step back! Do not act recklessly in front of the Prince!"

Upon receiving the order, the maids immediately stood behind their young mistress and instantly became obedient.

Gu Lingzhi carefully examined Sun Qingrou's face. Dressed in red, with a face as beautiful as a lotus, eyebrows like dark ink and eyes like stars, she truly deserved to be known as the most beautiful woman in the capital.

Her red dress made her look as radiant as the sun, or like a peony under the blazing sun.

Sun Qingrou slightly curved the corners of her lips and bowed to the two people on the roof: "Qingrou greets Your Highness!"

The voice was soft and gentle, like a nightingale's song, but Mo Jiuxiao showed no mercy: "Did I say I wanted to see you?"

Sun Qingrou was stunned for a moment. She raised her eyebrows in surprise. Ever since the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Zhenguo was exiled to the army, her reputation had soared. Everyone in the capital knew her.

Bearing the title of the most beautiful woman, even if she is slightly inferior to Gu Fuling in terms of talent, it is still enough for Sun Qingrou to be proud.

In this capital city, which young master or nobleman wouldn't fall head over heels for her after seeing her just once? But now, it seems she's met with a wall.

Sun Qingrou gritted her teeth, her red lips pink, and narrowed her eyes angrily. "Your Highness, although Qingrou's trip is abrupt, she is the wife personally bestowed upon you by the Emperor, which is why Qingrou wants to do everything possible to see you."

Mo Jiuxiao lowered his eyes indifferently, focusing his gaze on Gu Lingzhi: "Now that you've seen her, you can get lost."

roll?

No man has ever refused to even glance at her.

And that man...

Sun Qingrou's gaze fell directly on Gu Lingzhi.

Gu Lingzhi was still dressed in that very thin men's clothing, with a human skin mask covering her face completely, and even the skin on the back of her hands was properly covered with some special ointment.

After all, last time in Linyang City, she was almost seen through by the Third Prince of Nanhuai.

The thought that the person she longed for was actually holding another man in her arms made Sun Qingrou feel nauseous.

Of course, her disgust wasn't directed at Mo Jiuxiao, but rather at Gu Lingzhi.

Gu Lingzhi watched Sun Qingrou's expression with great interest.

She suppressed all her disgust and said in a very aggrieved voice, "Qingrou knows she is not worthy of the prince, but Qingrou has an innocent background and can bear children for the Ninth Prince. The Grand Tutor's Mansion will also become the prince's full support. Why does the prince treat Qingrou so coldly?"

A hint of impatience flashed in Mo Jiuxiao's eyes.

Anyone who is interrupted during a moment of intimacy will be in a bad mood.

Seeing Mo Jiuxiao's deep gaze, Gu Lingzhi couldn't help but light a candle for Miss Sun below.

Suddenly, Mo Jiuxiao reached out and lifted her down from the roof.

With her feet firmly planted on the ground, Gu Lingzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief. She looked up, this time very close to Sun Qingrou.

You can't see it from a distance, but up close, you can see the exquisite details of her eyebrows and eyes.

However, compared to her face, there is still a big difference.

She's not exaggerating, but Gu Lingzhi absolutely deserves the title of the most beautiful woman. She has a face that would make people turn their heads every time they walk down the street.

She envied even herself, let alone others.

A cloud of dust settled, and Sun Qingrou's expression darkened. She subconsciously took a step back.

"Qingrou has admired the prince since she was a child. Now that she has won the emperor's favor, it is Qingrou's honor to be able to marry the prince."

She never intended to say a word to Gu Lingzhi, completely ignoring Gu Lingzhi as if she didn't exist.

However, Gu Lingzhi was not about to let this opportunity slip by. After all, someone had practically snatched a man right to her doorstep, so how could she not retaliate? "Miss Sun, are you implying that you consider yourself a princess?"

Sun Qingrou frowned, her expression even more arrogant than her father's: "Who do you think you are?"

Gu Lingzhi was taken aback by the question. She looked at her with a half-smile and strode up to Sun Qingrou: "Miss Sun, you start by swearing. That doesn't suit your refined upbringing."

Sun Qingrou raised her eyebrows, her disgust deepening, and deliberately made a gesture as if she didn't want to get close to her: "Did you seduce the prince? I never thought that a man like you would do such a shameless thing!"

Gu Lingzhi wasn't angry at all. She narrowed her eyes, a cold glint flashing in them: "When it comes to shamelessness, I can't compare to you, Miss Sun. Didn't you see how much the Prince loathes you? Yet you still have the audacity to come here. Even if the Emperor's decree hadn't been issued yet, I still have the ability to make the Emperor cancel this marriage."

"you!"

Sun Qingrou was stunned.

Seeing the vicious look in Gu Lingzhi's eyes, he trembled with anger.

"His Majesty's words are law, how could he listen to your nonsense? No matter what, the Ninth Prince is a subject, and he would never do something like disobeying an imperial decree."

She deliberately raised the corners of her lips, but her gaze was fixed intently on Mo Jiuxiao's face.

"Qingrou only came here today to meet the Ninth Prince. Now that she has met him, Qingrou will take her leave."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Gu Lingzhi suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

Sun Qingrou was startled by the call and stopped in her tracks instantly, but it was too late.

A sting.

One of the pleated long skirts came off.

The bright red skirt trailed on the ground, and Sun Qingrou's face turned pale instantly.

She had specially found this outfit on the ship to see Mo Jiuxiao, and she had deliberately chosen a longer skirt to make herself look more noble and elegant.

However, at this moment, it became Sun Qingrou's nightmare.

Sun Qingrou felt a chill on her legs, and the view inside her skirt flashed by. She hurriedly clutched her long skirt, but even so, the view inside was still completely visible.

Gu Lingzhi clicked her tongue: "Miss Sun, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it."

Yes, she did it on purpose...

Sun Qingrou looked at her with a glare that seemed to want to devour her. If she didn't need to hold her skirt tightly, she would have raised her hand and slapped Gu Lingzhi.

"you……"

Gu Lingzhi wasn't satisfied with just being angry: "What about me?"

"Miss……"

The maids behind Sun Qingrou quickly surrounded her, but they were all only wearing long robes and didn't even have an overcoat, so they couldn't help at all.

Sun Qingrou's long dress was badly torn, and Gu Lingzhi's foot landed in a very strategic spot, directly stepping on a large piece of fabric in front of her.

"You did this on purpose, Your Highness, look at him..."

As she spoke, Sun Qingrou's eyes were filled with deep grievance, and her gaze flickered with mist as she looked at Mo Jiuxiao.

After all, she was a lady from a respectable family, and even when she was wronged, she looked pitiful.

Unfortunately, Mo Jiuxiao had no interest in what he was seeing.

He seemed oblivious, his gaze fixed intently on Gu Lingzhi, as if waiting for the next good show.

Sun Qingrou was so angry at not getting the reply she wanted that she wanted to stomp her feet.

Her fair skin flushed bright red, and her teeth looked as if they were about to be crushed.

In this embarrassing and shameful situation, it seemed that no matter what she said, she could not change her predicament.

Suppressing her anger, Sun Qingrou whispered to Mo Jiuxiao, "Your Highness, look how torn my dress is. I can't leave at all. Could you please lend me a robe to cover myself?"

Mo Jiuxiao's answer was decisive: "Get lost!"

The word "get lost" made Sun Qingrou's face turn from red to white instantly. As the daughter of the Grand Tutor, she had never suffered such humiliation in her life. Although Mo Jiuxiao was her beloved, being treated like this time and time again filled Sun Qingrou with anger.

"Since Your Highness does not wish to pay attention to Qingrou, then... Qingrou takes her leave!"

She lifted her tattered skirt, had her maid stand in front of her to shield her, and left the courtyard with great reluctance.

Gu Lingzhi watched with a smile as Sun Qingrou left in a huff, her eyes sparkling like little stars.

She found Sun Qingrou's frustrated expression quite amusing.

With nowhere to vent his anger and no way to avenge his grudges, his aggrieved and embarrassed gaze truly satisfied Gu Lingzhi's perverse sense of humor.

Mo Jiuxiao patted her head: "Happy?"

Gu Lingzhi beamed: "Of course I'm happy!"

Mo Jiuxiao nodded and said in a serious tone, "You've defeated your rival in love, that's something to be happy about."

Gu Lingzhi was taken aback, then looked at him with a half-smile: "Rival in love?" What kind of rival in love was she?

She didn't take Sun Qingrou seriously at all.

A glint of light flashed in Gu Lingzhi's eyes as she rubbed her fingertips together, calculating each hidden move she was making.
