The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1368

Chapter 1368: 665 Super Boss (First Update)

This little slap was not particularly harmful, but it was extremely humiliating.

With so many people watching, Prince Ming had lost all face, both inside and out.

Not to mention he hadn’t self-identified, aside from that clueless foreigner from the inferior nation, Xiao Liulang, who couldn’t recognize the imperial guards of the Crown Prince’s residence accompanying him?

He was baffled.

How had this boy become this little one’s teacher?

What was going on!

"Wait!"

The Prince, furious with embarrassment, suddenly thought of something important. He angrily looked toward the Little Princess being held in front of him, pointed at Gu Jiao, and said through gritted teeth, "Why don’t you believe me when I say I came to make friends, but you believe her when she says I came to steal horses? This is unfair of you!"

The Little Princess choked.

She suddenly felt a bit guilty.

Indeed, she had been slightly unjust earlier.

But the Little Princess had her own pride; admitting her mistake was out of the question!

She rolled her eyes thoughtfully and said seriously, "Isn’t it all because you always lie! You have a bad record, and your words lack credibility! They are not trustworthy!"

"You!"

Prince Ming was almost angered to death by her!

To be publicly humiliated was one thing, but to have one’s shortcomings exposed as well!

With the justification she had found for herself, the Little Princess suddenly felt quite righteous: "Don’t you admit it? Last year you were caught sneaking off to cockfight by your older cousin, the Crown Prince! This year you cheated and had someone write essays for you! Last month you even lied to His Majesty! Hmph! Did you think I was a child and wouldn’t remember?"

That was it; he was completely exposed.

In truth, these were all trivial matters: cockfighting was just a casual pastime, cheating occurred because he couldn’t be bothered with homework—it wasn’t that he didn’t know how to write—and as for lying, how could that be considered lying?

He claimed to miss the king day and night; how could that be wrong?

How could there be such infuriating children in the world!

The Prince could not hold grudges against the Little Princess; not only could he not bear grudges, but he also had to coax her and give in to her in every respect.

Otherwise, she would go to the king and tattle on him again, as tattling was what she loved most!

Could he go and tattle? Of course, he could, but wouldn’t that be shameful?

How old was the Little Princess, and how old was he?

The Little Princess, completely unaware that Prince Ming yielded to her because of her young age, always thought it was due to her higher status and that he could not be unfilial.

Because of the unexpected arrival of the Little Princess, Prince Ming had no choice but to leave in a crestfallen manner.

Before leaving, the Little Princess even pressed his head to make him bow in a salute.

Dean Cen and all the students who were sneakily spectating heaved a sigh of relief.

The arrival of the Little Princess was so timely.

Otherwise, who could have dealt with the daunting persona of Prince Ming?

That said, when the Little Princess just now mentioned not letting Prince Ming bully her teacher, which teacher was she referring to? Xiao Liulang?

At this moment, Mu Qingchen was hurriedly called over by Gu Xiaoshun, only to find that Prince Ming and Han Che had already left, rendering his strategizing along the way useless.

"Princess, why did you come?" Mu Qingchen approached and greeted the Little Princess.

"Put me down," the Little Princess said.

The maid put the Little Princess down.

The Little Princess was actually not often carried, as it would make her appear very small, and she always remembered that she was an elder.

The Little Princess pointed at Gu Jiao and said to Mu Qingchen, "I came to find her."

Gu Jiao asked oddly, "Find me for what?"

"To ride horses," said the Little Princess. "I asked you when you would come yesterday, and you didn’t give me a definite answer."

Oh, so she was supposed to respond? She thought she could just go straight there after class.

Gu Jiao seriously reflected, "It’s my fault, I’ll pay attention next time."

She had no adult pretenses in front of children.

This attitude pleased the Little Princess very much; she hated it when others made excuses and treated her like a child, such as that unfilial nephew, Prince Ming!

The Little Princess looked at Gu Jiao and said, "You can say it now."

Gu Jiao said, "I will come to you right after school today. I finish school at the hour of You, and it will take me less than half an hour to get to you."

The Little Princess nodded, "Good, it’s settled then."

After that, she bid farewell to Gu Jiao and Mu Qingchen, and rode back in her carriage.

Gu Jiao felt a little puzzled; to make such an effort just to ask about a class schedule was beyond her understanding of the world of a royal child.

...

Elsewhere, in the mine surrounded by mountains, Gu Chengfeng and his men had been drilling a well all day long. The weather was hot, and some laborers collapsed on the spot from heatstroke.

He pulled open the door and stepped out, wrapping a broken lock head with a strand of hair and locking it back in place as if nothing had happened. _{ƒrēewebnovel.com}
