The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1080

Chapter 1080: 522 Return to the Capital (Second Update)

Suddenly bursting in like this, the soldiers in the injured soldiers’ camp were so startled that they immediately drew the swords and blades by their beds.

Yuan Tang clicked his tongue, unfastened the sword from his waist, and threw it to an injured soldier nearest to him, "Here, take it."

Injured Soldier: "..."

Gu Jiao’s expression remained calm. She only glanced at Yuan Tang before saying to the injured soldier beside her, "Continue."

The injured soldier continued walking forward with the support of crutches.

Yuan Tang casually stood next to Gu Jiao and exaggeratedly groaned, "Seeing me, Your Highness, you’re not even a little excited? Had I known, I wouldn’t have come to see you."

"Is there something you need?" Gu Jiao asked.

Yuan Tang opened his mouth, as if he had nothing to say.

He clicked his tongue, "Aren’t you going to ask me what I’m doing in the borderlands?"

Gu Jiao responded with an "Oh" before saying, "Are you here to kill Prince Bo, or to kill Rong Yao?"

Yuan Tang: "..."

"Here, take this." Yuan Tang handed her a small bundle he carried with him. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}

"What is it?" Gu Jiao asked.

Yuan Tang stuffed the bundle into her arms, saying, "The begonia flower box is for you; the bamboo leaf box is for my cousin. I’m heading back to the Capital City, as I need to deal with my uncle, so I might not be able to visit Zhaodu for a while. You pass it on to my cousin for me."

"Mm," Gu Jiao acknowledged.

Yuan Tang raised an eyebrow, "But don’t overthink it, eh? I’m only giving you a gift as thanks for helping my cousin with the errand. Besides... back in Zhaodu, it was thanks to your husband that I managed to escape."

Initially, Yuan Tang thought he had concealed himself well enough that Xiao Liulang was unaware, but after retrospection, he realized that Xiao Liulang, who was supposed to go on duty at the office, had suddenly changed course and left through the City North gate, even stopping at the post station.

Perhaps Xiao Liulang had discovered him all along and had intentionally sent him away.

Gu Jiao had no idea that this had happened.

It was indeed thanks to Xiao Hen that Yuan Tang had been released; otherwise, the battle wouldn’t have ended so quickly, and both sides would have suffered numerous additional casualties.

Yuan Tang said, "Alright, I’ve said what I needed to, and now I must leave. Remember to make my cousin miss me."

Hearing this, Gu Changqing finally sheathed the sword he had drawn.

Yuan Tang rode away from Yuegu City.
