The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 943

Chapter 943: 430 Savagely Beating the Crown Princess (Second Update)

The crown princess recognized him.

The shadow guard who would rather give the thousand-year ginseng to Gu Jiao than to her.

The crown princess still remembered that embarrassment to this day.

A guard like this who didn’t obey orders would have long been driven out of the East Palace by the crown prince.

The crown princess maintained basic courtesies on the surface, "Please announce my arrival. I wish to see the princess."

Long Yi didn’t move.

The crown princess choked a bit, "I haven’t seen you before and should have done nothing to displease you. Is there some misunderstanding between us?"

Long Yi continued to stand unwaveringly still.

The crown princess had never seen the Dragon Shadow Guard and didn’t know Long Yi was one, taking this man as intentionally opposing her.

She speculated that if Princess Xinyang really had awakened, she must have heard the commotion at the door. Since she didn’t come out, she must not have awakened.

Forget it, she shouldn’t be arguing with a shadow guard and lose her dignity.

The crown princess turned to leave, just stepping out of the courtyard, colliding unexpectedly with Gu Jiao rushing over from Bishui Alley.

The crown princess got a severe shock, "You? How come you are here? Are you—" She looked at Gu Jiao and then back at the mansion behind her, asking uncertainly, "Here for this place?"

Gu Jiao looked her up and down, clearly also wanting to ask why the crown princess was here.

The crown princess indifferently said, "I asked you a question."

Gu Jiao raised an eyebrow, "Must I answer because you asked?"

The crown princess, already frustrated from being snubbed by Long Yi and now ridiculed by Gu Jiao, couldn’t help but get angry, "Miss Gu, no doubt you have the love of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, but how long will that last? Once the crown prince ascends to the throne, I will be the Empress. I have no intention of making things difficult for you, but don’t leave yourself without a way out."

That familiar tone, those identical phrases.

Where had she heard them before?

Ah.

Prince Ning.

So, where in the world were there walls that didn’t let any wind through? Where could fire be wrapped in paper without being known?

When one person has an unclear and indescribable relationship with another, each word and action inadvertently permeates the other’s habits.

Yujin’s timely appearance broke the tense deadlock.

"Doctor Gu has arrived, please come inside and have a seat," she said with a smile, then to the crown princess, "Doctor Gu is the physician I’ve invited from the Medical Hall to treat the princess’s illness."

"I see," said the crown princess, withdrawing her gaze from Gu Jiao’s face, "Then once the princess awakens, I’ll come to see her."
