MTL - After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won’t Leave Me Alone-Chapter 371 I seem to... like a woman!
Chapter 371 I seem to be in love with a woman!
Shen Mingjiao had just left the courtyard when Gu Danxue happened to be walking towards her. Shen Mingjiao glanced at her slightly pale face, stepped forward and took her arm: "What's the matter?"
Gu Danxue walked up to a quiet and uninhabited pavilion, looked down at the unknown flowers blooming on the ground, was silent for a while, and said, "I seem to... fall in love with a woman!"
After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Shen Mingjiao, but continued: "I know how unethical my thinking is, and it is destined to be tolerated by the world. But I can't control my heart."
She finally raised her head and looked at Shen Mingjiao cautiously:
"Madam, I never thought that I would fall in love with a woman, and when I think of the ridicule I will face, I will feel panic and fear, but I don't feel ashamed, nor will I escape anger.
I... I just want to tell Madam that maybe I was born with a special hobby, or maybe it's just because that person is him, so it doesn't matter gender.
Madam can you...don't hate me for this! "
Facing her fragile yet firm eyes, Shen Mingjiao, who always thought her eloquence was pretty good, was suddenly dumbfounded.
If she had heard what Gu Danxue said before this, and had seen her friend in such entanglement and pain, Shen Mingjiao would have told her the truth without hesitation, and then she would give her advice to bring the two of them together.
But now I know that Gu Danxue has been planted with love gu, and if she is so innocent, all her pain and entanglement may be just because of the love gu in her body, not her original intention.
Under such circumstances, Shen Mingjiao couldn't speak. If she was told the truth, Gu Danxue would have no scruples, and the two would sink deeper and deeper under the control of the love gu, even breaking through all boundaries.
And one day when the love gu is over, if Gu Danxue has no intentions of Xing Qi, then how will she deal with herself?
After hesitating for a while, she chose a compromise, and she asked Gu Danxue:
"After you were arrested last night, did Princess Xiyue give you love Gu?"
Gu Danxue just remembered what happened last night, and nodded in a daze: "Princess Xiyue asked someone to pour me a cup of tea, and there was a bug in that tea."
Because she has been in a coma since Xing Qi brought her back, she never had a chance to say anything.
Shen Mingjiao looked at her, and said earnestly: "You and your friend were both under the love gull by accident."
She roughly explained what love Gu is, "So, you may not like him. It's just because of the love Gu in your body."
Gu Danxue obviously couldn’t imagine that there is such a thing in the world, she was stunned for a long time, then shook her head firmly:
"No, I can be sure that even without love gu, I still like him, but I never dare to face up to this feeling." In the last sentence, her voice was very low, like an unconscious murmur.
Shen Mingjiao thought about Yun Shu's words before, Yun Shu had always been more accurate than her in this regard, she gritted her teeth, and said, "Actually, Xing Qi is..."
"Girl."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xing Qi who hurried over.
Gu Danxue's eyes lit up when he saw Xing Qi approaching. Subconsciously, he raised his foot and was about to walk towards him. Thinking of what happened just now, he couldn't help hesitating when he stepped forward. A pair of eyes dare not look at him.
Xing Qi took the initiative to come over, and said softly: "Girl, let's go back!" At the same time, he looked at Shen Mingjiao beggingly.
Shen Mingjiao understood the meaning in his eyes, she couldn't help but sighed in her heart, and in the end she didn't say anything as he wished.
…
Gu Danxue walked beside Xing Qi, looking at him quietly from time to time with a pair of eyes, and finally mustered up the courage to whisper: "Are you angry?"
Xing Qi took a deep breath, turned to look at her, his eyes contained too much restraint. "No, I will never be angry with a girl. I just...don't dare to get too close to a girl," afraid that I might not be able to restrain myself from doing something that would hurt her.
Recalling just now, under his long sword, Princess Xiyue's voice of extreme fear:
"...Love Gu was given to me by my master. Master didn't tell me how to get rid of it. Master only said that this is her newly cultivated love Gu, which can arouse people's desires to the greatest extent. However, if the two sides of the Gu are too far away or have been separated for a long time If you don't see it, you will feel palpitations unbearably, like the strongest poppy."
So he will try his best to stay by her side to avoid her discomfort, and he can't let Gu Danxue know about his disguise as a woman before removing the love vomit on the two of them, he can't take advantage of others.
Shen Mingjiao found Tie Zhu and asked him to invite the best doctor in the city, or ask privately if there is any witch doctor from Miaojiang.
At the same time, she sent a letter to Cui Lingling, asking when the doctor Wu would come.
After handing over the written letter to the guard, she asked Haitang who was helping to grind the ink: "Where is your master?"
As soon as the voice fell, Feng Lisheng walked in.
Shen Mingjiao tidied up the pen holder, raised her head and asked him, "What did you ask me for just now?"
Feng Lisheng sat down opposite her, "The firms you ordered to investigate have some clues, as you guessed, these firms, or the big merchants behind them, are all the crown prince's pocketbook. "
Bringing this matter up, his face couldn't help but look ugly. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants have a low status, but they are very good at making money. As the prince, it is too easy for the prince to recruit these merchants in private.
After finishing speaking, he took out several ledgers from an oil paper bag he brought with him:
"This is the ledger searched from those several commercial firms, which recorded the money that was regularly taken from them every year, and then handed over to Xianyang County Sheriff.
I think the prince used this method to transfer money from merchants to Xianyang County step by step, and then use the money to secretly support private soldiers.
I will slightly change these ledgers, and you will copy them again by imitating the notes of Xianyang County Sheriff, "
Shen Mingjiao was born good at imitating people's handwriting. During those years in the Yongchang Hou Mansion, she relied on this ability to make the life of the master and servant more comfortable, and she still had the spare energy to help her ex-fiancé Pei Ji's family.
Shen Mingjiao casually picked up a book and flipped through it, "You want to forge evidence?"
She frowned, "But there is nothing in this ledger that mentions the prince and private soldiers. Even if it is written by force, if there is no other basis, this ledger alone will not be able to bring down the prince!"
Feng Lisheng took out a ledger, picked up the ink, and said without raising his head when he heard the words: "With these ledgers alone, it is naturally impossible to overthrow the prince. After the secret book I wrote in the morning is sent back to Beijing, I will send this book to you." Write down the account book together with the investigation of the prince's collusion with merchants in detail, and send someone to Su Wang's mansion, in order for Shuo'er to quietly hand over the letter and account book to the emperor."
Shen Mingjiao thought for a moment and realized his intention: "You are forcing the prince to jump over the wall to deal with you!"
