Probably because her arrangement did not take effect, Princess Xin'an kept her peace on the way back and did not even look at Gu Mingmou. She was happy to be alone, standing alone at the stern of the boat, with the cool breeze blowing from the lake and her skirts flying.
Xu Linglong, who boarded the ship with Prince Heng, inquired about everyone's identities early in the morning. When she walked out of the cabin, she paused when she saw Gu Mingmou, raised her chin slightly and walked towards her with lotus steps.
"Miss Gu." A soft and charming voice came from behind. Gu Mingmu turned his head, his eyes were cold, with an unspeakable danger.
Xu Linglong was stunned and felt that her eyes were blank. It took a while before she regained her composure.
"Miss Linglong has something to do with me?"
"I heard that Miss Gu is the fiancee of Crown Prince Yongning?" Xu Linglong said slowly, looking her up and down with her moist and affectionate phoenix eyes.
Gu Mingmou nodded, wondering what she meant by this.
"Since the girl has already promised to marry Prince Yongning for life, please let the prince go. I don't dare to monopolize the prince. What I say today are all from the bottom of my heart. After all, the girl is about to get married. If anything comes out, it will be harmful to everyone. not good."
"Did Miss Linglong misunderstand something?" Gu Mingmou's expression remained unchanged, but he was secretly wary. It seemed that the Xiling Dancer was not a simple person. He must not be stupid to be sent to the prince.
But did she really know something when she came to him so rashly, or was it just jealousy in her heart
Not to mention that she and Prince Heng have nothing, but they have something. In what capacity does she take charge? Recently, everyone seemed to think she was easy to mess with, and anyone wanted to test her bottom line.
Xu Linglong lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes quivering like butterfly wings, and said in a faint tone, "Last night, the prince's body was stained with the girl's fragrance..."
This sentence was said in a thousand twists and turns. After Xu Linglong said it, she raised her head to look at Gu Mingmou, only to see a sneer on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were cold and biting.
Perhaps the gaze was too frightening, Xu Linglong swayed, feeling dizzy.
"Miss Linglong, people who think they are smart never live long, so you can take care of yourself." Gu Mingmou didn't pay attention to her threat at all, and walked past her and left.
If this threat came out of gratitude, she might still be unable to respond.
Yes, as for Prince Heng... He made it very clear last night that that person may be somewhat interested in her, but he also despises her from the bottom of his heart, otherwise he would not use such words and attitude to humiliate her.
Since he looked down on her, he would definitely not be willing to say anything to her. After all, it would not be a smart idea to offend the Yongning Marquis for her, especially since he was just a prince now, with three princes under his control.
Gu Mingmou's reaction was somewhat beyond Xu Linglong's expectations, but she was sneering in her heart. What a lady, she just became a bitch to set up a memorial hall. On the surface, she was a chaste and fierce woman. She had a fiancé and was still secretly seducing men. She stood there for a long time. Then he gathered up his outer gauze and turned back to the cabin.
"Your Majesty~" Returning to the cabin where Prince Heng was resting, Xu Linglong returned to her gentle and charming expression, and her voice was even softer and sweeter. Even the chamberlain who had been serving Prince Heng couldn't bear it.
"Where have you gone?" Prince Heng leaned on the soft couch with half-squinted eyes, his posture was wanton, but with an arrogant and wild attitude, and every move was full of charm that people couldn't look away from.
Xu Linglong made no secret of the fascination in her eyes, and was very satisfied that she could finally follow such a man.
"I just met Miss Gu at the stern of the boat. Miss Gu seems a little out of place."
"Oh, why are you interested in her?"
"I heard someone say something interesting before. I heard that a young man sent someone to deliver something to Miss Gu early in the morning, but was kicked out in the end. I didn't expect that Miss Gu still has such a clear-cut temperament of love and hate. I really can't tell." Xu Linglong peeked at the expression on Prince Heng's face and said carefully.
It's a pity that she couldn't see anything from Prince Heng's face, and in the end she could only lower her eyes.
"The news spread quickly."
"Everyone down there is talking about it."
"Then why are you the only one so curious?" Prince Heng opened his eyes, his eyes dark and obscure, like a whirlpool in the deep sea, with the smell of death.
Xu Linglong's face turned pale. Before she could explain herself, she saw Prince Heng wave his hand. Someone behind her suddenly covered her mouth. She wanted to struggle but was easily restrained. After a moment of spinning, he fell into the water with a plop.
Xu Linglong was born on the shore of Jinghu Lake and naturally knew how to swim, but she couldn't move at this time. Her whole body was sinking, and the lake slowly immersed her.
without. She didn't understand why Prince Heng, who was so doting on her yesterday, would treat her like this. She just said a few words...
The beauty who was fished out of the water on the deck showed a pitiful fragility. Even though she was in a miserable state, she could not hide her grace. Gu Mingmou saw this scene from above and raised his eyebrows slightly. He had no idea what was happening. The Linglong girl who had been so proud just now was actually fished out of the water half dead.
Summer's clothes were already thin, and became almost transparent after being soaked in water. This exquisite girl was placed there without even a covering. Although she is a promiscuous woman, but with so many people looking at her body, her life in the future may not be too easy.
Gu Mingmou glanced at the direction of Prince Heng with a complicated expression, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what that man was thinking.
Fortunately, except for Xu Linglong's accident, the journey back to Beijing was quite peaceful and nothing happened. It wasn't until she got on the Gu family's carriage that Gu Mingmou's high-pitched heart finally relaxed.
No one came to see her after returning home, which made her curious. She knew that in the past, Mrs. Gu would call her over as soon as possible, and even if she didn't say a few words, she would at least ask what happened. Why was there no movement today?
Soon, Gu Mingmou learned from Xiuyu the reason why Mrs. Gu didn't look for her. It was because she had a grandson and couldn't take care of her anymore.
hehe…
Something that never happened in her previous life happened to her in this life.
"Is there any news from mother's side?" Gu Mingmou was not surprised at all that she had an extra brother for no apparent reason, but she just remembered that her mother was not worth it for her.
"It seems that the madam had a quarrel with the master yesterday, and there was no movement after that."
"What about mother and son?" Aunt Ning had just died, and Aunt Liu had also fallen out of favor. It was really interesting that they came to her at such a coincidental time.
"The old lady took the mother and son into the yard." Xiuyu raised her head and glanced at Gu Mingmou, but hesitated to speak.
"Grandma hasn't even confirmed her identity yet so she can't wait? What do you want to say? Just say it."
"My slave also saw the mother and son from a distance yesterday. The boy looked very similar to the master." Obviously the girl's expression had not changed, but for some reason Xiuyu didn't dare to speak anymore and could only lower her head and look at it. Toe.
