After Being Kidnapped by the Crown Prince

Chapter 14: If you insist on doing this, send someone...

The gloomy sky seemed to be a harbinger of showers and gusts, and the branches of the high courtyard swayed with the wind. The man in the carriage was silent and frightening, his jaw tightened and his face expressionless. He quietly fiddled with the prayer beads in his hand.

The guard did not dare to move arbitrarily.

Mingzhu hadn't noticed the danger coming, and after saying what she held in her heart, she felt more comfortable.

She saluted Wei Chi, then turned back to the yard.

When it was near Xu, the house was still brightly lit, and the front hall was still lively. The young masters and the young ladies stayed in the old lady's yard to watch the years. The mother next to the old lady came over and gave Mingzhu a red envelope.

"Miss Fifth, the old lady gives you peace of mind to recuperate."

Mingzhu took the red envelope and put it in the palm of her hand. The weight was not light, "Excuse me, thank you grandma for me."

The mother laughed, "The old lady also asked, when will the prince pick you up?"

This five young lady is also a poor person, his mother died young, and the marriage has been up and down again. Regarding the girls in the backyard, the old lady always keeps one eye closed and does not worry about it, and doesn't care if something big happens, so these years, Miss Fifth can't talk about how well the life in the house is.

However, Miss Wu has her own marriage meeting, and the concubine sister and the prince are also a little blessed.

I just don't know how long her blessing can last.

Mingzhu said, "I don't know either."

The mother knew in her heart, "The old slave will go back first. Miss Fifth rests earlier."

Mingzhu asked Arou to send her mother back. She opened the red envelope and counted. There are a dozen pieces of silver, which is not too small.

Biying was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she put a warm cloak on her shoulders, "Girl, do you want to keep the year old tonight?"

In order to ask for auspiciousness, Mingzhu thought about it or said, "I want it."

When her mother-in-law was still there, she would sit on a warm soft couch with her in her arms every year, and the small table was filled with gluttonous snacks, taking her to stay together. She was young and couldn't get through the sleepiness. She lay on her mother and asked with a grinning voice: "Mother, I want to go to bed to sleep, I don't want to stay old."

A-niang's voice is gentle and gentle, "My mother holds you and keeps you old, so that the New Year will be safe and sound and everything will go smoothly."

In Mingzhu's memory, her mother-in-law is a very gentle, beautiful and kind-hearted person. So that day when Zhao Shi mentioned her mother, she subconsciously interrupted him, whether it was good or bad, she didn't want to continue listening.

Biying prepared some fruits and pastries for the Pearl girl.

Fireworks have started to be set off in the city, and the sound of firecrackers continued for more than half an hour before stopping. You can also smell the scent of firecrackers and paper flowers when you open the window.

Mingzhu couldn't help looking out the window. The fireworks erupted in the night sky with a deep sound, and the light and shadow shone on her white and flawless face, like a creamy white jade, with a clean and smart look, and breathtakingly beautiful.

Biying asked in a low voice, "Girl, do you want to set off fireworks? The slave and maid let you buy some back."

Mingzhu retracted her gaze and closed the window to block the cold wind outside. She took a sip of hot tea and shook her head and said, "No need."

She wanted to set off fireworks, but at this hour, the store closed early and did not do business.

She didn't have much chance to set off fireworks when she was young. During the New Year, she watched her mistress take her sister-in-law to the yard. Her father Xiaoxin looked at them and asked them to be careful not to burn them.

Last year's New Year, the Prince's other courtyard did have fireworks, which were said to be set off at will. Mingzhu ordered a few and had a lot of fun.

Mingzhu held the hot teacup in her hand, her palm pressed against the hot temperature, she asked, "Biying, can you play cards?"

Biying nodded: "Yes."

Mingzhu had nothing to do when she was idle, and she didn't like to read other books except the folk script, so she asked Biying and Arou to play cards with her.

Mingzhu didn't have much luck playing cards. After losing several games in a row, I felt a little sleepy again.

She usually fell asleep at this point long ago, and at this time she was still bracing herself, trying to hold up the drooping eyelids.

Biying put down the card in her hand, hesitated for a while and persuaded: "Girl, or else should you stop?"

Mingzhu endured her sleepiness and shook her head, "No." She went on to say, "I won't be sleepy if I eat something."

Biying asked in a low voice, "What do you want to eat? The servants go and let the people in the kitchen do it."

Mingzhu thought about it seriously, she wanted something sweet, "I want to eat glutinous rice balls."

"The slave and maid will go now."

Biying went to the kitchen to let the cook cook a bowl of glutinous rice balls. The old cook was very reluctant when he heard that Miss Wu's people wanted to eat. She bowed her head and chopped vegetables, ignoring her. Okay."

Biying endured her temper and asked, "How long will I have to wait?"

The old cook lifted his eyes and said in a bad tone, "Wait slowly."

Biying theorized with him, "How long can a bowl of glutinous rice **** take?"

The old cook replied: "It won't take long, but you must pay attention to first come first, then come first. The meals ordered by the ladies in the long room are fine and sloppy. If the fifth lady can't wait, don't eat it."

Biying was really angry, she said coldly: "Okay, I will cook for our girl myself."

The old cook didn't bother to care about her.

Biying sat in front of the stove and started the fire. When the fire boiled, she put the glutinous rice **** wrapped in advance into the pot.

Before the glutinous rice **** were boiled, the old cook wanted her to start. Biying had to stand aside, waiting for the glutinous rice **** to be cooked.

Mingzhu was sleepy and unconscious, lying on the table, breathing softly, her small face looked soft, white and tender, and she was slowly going to sleep again.

She didn't even know when the door was pushed open. Seeing the man entering the room, Ah Rou couldn't help widening her eyes, just about to remind Mingzhu.

Zhao Shi stared at her coldly and told her to go out.

Mingzhu was restless in her sleep, raising her eyelids in a daze, as if she saw a vague figure in the room.

With a slight chill all over the man, sitting in the dim light, looking at her quietly, with awe-inspiring aura.

Mingzhu suddenly woke up from the half-dream and half-awake state, and was shocked by a lot of waves in her heart. She really didn't expect how he would come over today.

Shouldn't he celebrate the New Year in the palace at this time? Why did you come to her in free time?

Mingzhu had a bad feeling in her heart, her legs and feet had begun to weaken, she raised her head, her white and pure face was already sleeping with two red marks, and her hair was a little messy.

Zhao Shi drank two sips of tea in silence, but Wenwen was quiet and kind, but he lifted his eyelashes and looked at her faintly with the cold air that he had just killed.

The door was ajar, and it seemed that it had fallen outside.

Biying was carrying the freshly cooked glutinous rice balls, and as soon as she walked outside the courtyard, she was blocked by a guard she had never seen before.

Biying's heart jumped, what's wrong?

The prince soldier guarded outside the courtyard with a knife, no one was allowed to approach without permission.

Mingzhu was a little nervous, "Your Highness."

Zhao Shi just looked at her like this without saying anything. After drinking the cup of tea, he slowly placed the jade crown in his sleeve in front of her.

Mingzhu looked at the jade crown that was not very valuable, her face suddenly became ugly, like a throat, she didn't know what to say.

One lie needs another lie to fill in. That night, she was afraid that he would find out about her going to the pawnshop, so she lied that she had bought him a gift.

And there was really no item for the man in the room, so he was helpless to use this thing that could never be given out again to prevaricate him.

Mingzhu's face turned pale, and her reason made her turn around and run, but her legs were stiff and she couldn't lift it up.

She took a deep breath to keep her calm. At this time, the situation was still unclear, and Zhao Shi might not know that this was not originally bought for him.

She squeezed a far-fetched and ugly smile, "Don't you like it? Then give it back to me."

Zhao Zhi's face was calm, and he couldn't see any clues, "Tell me, when and where I bought this jade crown."

As soon as this sentence came out, Mingzhu knew that it had been exposed.

Her tense body suddenly relaxed, and the indistinct candlelight reflected on her soft white and delicate side face, and she lowered her eyelashes, a touch of tranquility.

"You knew already."

She looked through the crack of the door to see the soldiers in the yard carrying the sword, and she knew that Zhao Shi might be very angry this time.

But she was confused, and she didn't know where Zhao Shi knew about it. Is it possible that his eyeliner has reached such a pervasive level?

Zhao Shi stood up slowly, closed the door, and walked towards her again, "Birthday gift bought for someone else a year ago."

Mingzhu said, "He was my fiance a year ago."

By now, she was not so scared.

Zhao Shi grabbed her wrist and tugged it in front of him, with a heavy expression on her face, "So you showed weakness over and over again and begged me to let you go home, just come back to see him?"

He used a lame excuse to leave the palace ahead of time, and there were some small fireworks that girls liked in the carriage, which was more or less the desire to make her happy.

I don't want to see her even frowning during the New Year, and I can't bear to leave her alone in the Ming Mansion for the New Year. However, she received such a big gift.

Mingzhu's slender wrist hurts when he scratches her, and she is in a dilemma by him. Had to raise his eyes to face his stern look. His waist has been pressed on the collapse, unable to move.

Mingzhu couldn't admit that she had already affected Wei Chi enough, and could no longer affect him because of these things.

What's more, she didn't want to go home for Wei Chiyu.

"No." Mingzhu gritted her teeth, her voice trembling, "I don't want to come back to see him, I'm just being locked up by you for too long, I want to come out and breathe."

Zhao Shi stared at her face without seeing any trace of lying.

Mingzhu had no choice but to look at him, the man in front of him was close at hand, even if he looked closely, his eyebrows couldn't pick out any flaws.

She asked the question that had been hidden in her heart for a long time, "His Royal Highness, why on earth are you detaining me?"

She is a person, not a bird that is really kept in a cage.

And Zhao Shi is clearly not an unreasonable person, whoever mentions him has to praise his maturity, stability, and reasonableness.

When Mingzhu was in her boudoir, she had also heard the maids talk about the Prince in private, and talked about him in full spring with praise.

A pure temperament, gentle and courteous, no more kind-hearted, compassionate people, without the slightest arrogance, and never do things that are difficult for a strong man.

Why is it different to her?

Knowing that she is about to marry, she still wants to win the love of the bad guys.

Zhao Shi looked at these wet eyes and couldn't answer her question.

Because I like it so much, it seems that if I don't get her, I will regret it forever.

Zhao Zhi used all the shamelessness of her life on her, step by step.

He was always afraid that she would run away with others, and he was so sick that he trapped her in the golden wire cage he built for her.

Knowing that it is not right, it will be wrong.

Zhao Shi let go of her wrist and tidyed up her clothes, "I assume that this has never happened."

He pinched her chin, "But in the future, you can't see him again."

Mingzhu didn't know where he had the courage, so she pushed him away and sat on the side in silence, bowing her head without saying a word.

"Tomorrow, I will send someone to pick you up." Zhao Shi said again.

"I won't go back."

Zhao Shi had already planned to leave, and he was very upset when he heard this and turned around, "What did you say?"

"I'm going to celebrate the Lantern Festival this year." Mingzhu raised her eyes and spoke without any offensive power: "If you insist on doing this, send someone to pick up my body tomorrow."

Mingzhu had never spoken to him like this before, no matter when she was gentle and soft, she was so cheating.

Zhao Shi spoke lightly, neither salty nor indifferent, and asked: "You threaten me?"

In this world, she is the only person who dared to threaten him.

Mingzhu raised her snow-white neck and raised her face to look at him. She bit her lip, "Your Majesty, the rabbit will bite people in a hurry."

Zhao Shi was silent for a moment, and there was a cold chill as he spoke, and he was really angry, "After fifteen days, I will come to pick you up personally."

The man did not stay overnight, and left in the snowy night with a cold face and his guards.

Suddenly, the raging murderous intent could not be stopped. Before leaving, the prince did not forget to speak to the people in Ming Mansion, "Look at her well for Gu."

The uncle Ming family was stunned. For so many years, he hadn't seen His Royal Highness become so angry! But I really lost my manners!

"Your Highness, don't worry, this is certain."

Mingzhu is so ignorant, he is not good at serving a person like the prince with a good temper? Bai gave birth to a good look and wondered about the amorous feelings!

The uncle Ming family now only hopes that when Mingru marries into the East Palace, the prince will not irritate her sister because of Mingzhu's ignorance.

How can Zhao Shi not know the virtues of his family, "Also, if there are people in your house who dare to behave and neglect her everywhere, you have to be careful. In the future, you may not only be dismissed as your brother."

The uncle Ming family was frightened, and it was so strange that His Highness even knew the trivial things that were jealous in the house.

He was afraid in his heart, and even smiled on his face, "His Royal Highness mentioned that the minister must take good care of these short-sighted people in the family."

Zhao Shi glanced at him mockingly, sneered, took a big step, and left without looking back.

Before leaving, he also withdrew his guards who were guarding the gate of Mingzhuyuan.

The snow is getting bigger and bigger, the prince suddenly returns to the house, and the people are busy for a while.

The prince's face looked like icy, and the maid serving the tea and water did not dare to look at it, holding her breath, and waited carefully, not dare to make any mistakes.

Zhao Shi went straight into the study, holding the jade crown tightly in his hand, and placed it on the desk. He stared at it for a long time, clenched his hands, and the pale skin showed blue veins. He picked up the jade crown on his right hand. The inkstone smashed up hard.

There was a loud noise, quite shocking.

The jade crown suddenly fell apart and shattered all over the ground.
