Chapter 124 Heartbreak
Chapter 124 Heartbreak
"Little Prince, I'm here!"
Li Ziheng looked over when he heard the voice, and his eyes froze when he saw the blue-clothed girl running towards him from afar.
Why is it her?
Only then did he remember that he had only heard the two maids say that Princess Jingmin had captured a young lady, but he did not hear her name.
It was because there had been a grudge between Gu Jin and him for a long time, so he had a preconceived notion that Gu Jin was the one who was arrested.
"Little Prince." Bai Yiyi ran over breathlessly, a blush on her fair cheeks. She raised her watery eyes and looked at Li Ziheng lovingly, saying shyly, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
She didn't expect that Li Ziheng, who was always cold and taciturn, would care about her so much. In order to save her, he would break into Zhilan Palace and even say such cruel words to Princess Jingmin.
If that was the case, she might as well confirm her feelings with him today and strive to become the princess of a county as soon as possible.
As soon as Li Ziheng saw that the other person was Bai Yiyi, he immediately lost interest. He left without saying anything and turned back.
Bai Yiyi did not forget to kneel down and greet Princess Jingmin, and only after saying goodbye did she trot off to chase Li Ziheng.
Princess Jingmin looked at the two people's backs in confusion. After a while, she was so angry that her body trembled. "Who is Li Ziheng? He dared to break into my Zhilan Palace for a woman from a small family. This is really unreasonable!"
Li Ziheng has refused to get married for so many years, and she thought he had very high standards. It turns out he is attracted to this kind of stuff!
Princess Jingmin was already furious, and she was even more furious when she saw Yunbi coming back alone with her tail between her legs, "Why did you come back alone? Where's Gu Jin?"
"Your Highness, Gu Jin said she is a little busy and can't come for the time being..."
Princess Jingmin raised her hand and slapped Yunbi hard, "Useless thing!
If you can't even bring a person back, what use is there for me to have you? I might as well turn you into fertilizer to grow the flowers and plants in my yard!"
"Your Highness, please spare my life!
I have threatened and bribed her, but Gu Jin refused to listen. She neither respects you nor cares about her cousin. There are many people in the Imperial Garden, and I can't tie her up. "Yun Bi was so scared that she knelt down and begged for mercy, fearing that Princess Jingmin would take her life in anger.
"Useless thing! Get out!" Princess Jingmin was annoyed by her crying and kicked Yunbi hard in the heart.
Yun Bi's face turned pale with pain, but she dared not utter a muffled groan, "Your Highness, calm down. You are a precious person, don't let yourself get hurt by lowly people like Gu Jin and this slave girl."
Princess Jingmin's mood was slightly relieved by this sentence. She snorted coldly with a fierce look in her eyes, "If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished by drinking the wine. I want to see how big a show Gu Jin can put on!"
At the same time, Bai Yiyi ran out of breath and barely caught up with Li Ziheng, "Little Prince, please wait for me..."
Li Ziheng looked at Bai Yiyi impatiently, and said in a cold tone, "If you have anything to say, tell me now!"
Although Bai Yiyi was somewhat puzzled as to why Li Ziheng was so rude to her after saving her, she still curled her lips and said softly when she thought of how he was so angry for her: "Little Prince, thank you for saving me just now, otherwise I really don't know what terrible things I would have encountered."
Although Princess Jingmin just threw her in a side hall, Bai Yiyi still acted as if she was frightened, and her eyes were sparkling and pitiful when she looked at Li Ziheng.
Li Ziheng frowned, and the gloom in his eyes deepened.
Bai Yiyi raised her handkerchief to wipe her tears, not noticing Li Ziheng's expression, and said shyly, "I thought you were just a good friend of my cousin, but I didn't expect you to be the young prince.
Yiyi was rude before, please don't blame me."
After saying this, Bai Yiyi bowed towards Li Ziheng, like an innocent and pure little white flower.
Bai Yiyi had always pretended not to know Li Ziheng's identity, but today's situation gave her a good opportunity to break through the window paper.
She would make him believe that their meeting was purely fate and there was no calculation at all.
She admired him for who he was, not who he was.
"Mr. Li... no, Little Prince, today Yiyi is fortunate to be rescued by you. I don't know how to repay such a kindness..." Bai Yiyi lowered her head slightly, raised her hand to lift a strand of hair by her ear, revealing the shy and charming profile of a girl.
She had practiced this movement in front of the bronze mirror no less than a hundred times, and her movements were natural and smooth, and she mastered them just right.
A woman's sexiness and charm do not lie in exposing her breasts and back. This kind of unconscious seduction is her greatest weapon. As long as the other party is a normal man, he will not be indifferent to her.
She must take down Li Ziheng today!
Li Ziheng stared at her, and a sneer suddenly flashed in his cold eyes, "Do you want to repay me?"
"Yeah." Bai Yiyi pursed her lips and nodded shyly.
Li Ziheng curled his lips and smiled, his pair of fox eyes were so charming and beautiful that women were dazzled.
Bai Yiyi's cheeks turned red with shame when she saw this. How could this be the devil? He was clearly a rare good husband.
“That’s perfect!
There is a steward in my family who followed my father to the battlefield and lost a leg. Now he is over 30 years old and has not found a suitable marriage yet. If you want to repay me, you can marry him and serve him well.
As long as you are devoted to him, I can ensure that you will live a life of wealth and glory for the rest of your life!"
Bai Yiyi's head was buzzing and she couldn't believe what she heard.
Is she hallucinating?
How could Li Ziheng let her marry a steward? Didn’t he like her?
Seeing Bai Yiyi's shocked and stunned expression, Li Ziheng looked disdainful and said with a sneer, "Are you not pretending anymore?"
"I... I don't know what you are talking about, young prince?" Bai Yiyi's expression changed, not as calm as before.
"That's enough." Li Ziheng said in a contemptuous tone, "You are all long-haired foxes. What innocent tricks are you playing on me?
Do you think I don't know that you hired someone to secretly investigate me? You don't really think I would believe that those few meetings later were just coincidences, do you? "
Bai Yiyi's face turned pale, and she murmured, "I..."
"Don't pretend. If I'm not mistaken, you already knew my identity in Yuyan Pavilion, right?
You saw that I had feelings for Gu Jin, so you deliberately used her as an excuse to get close to me, and even repeatedly pretended that we had met by chance."
Looking at Bai Yiyi's mask that was shattered bit by bit, Li Ziheng suddenly felt particularly refreshed. He leaned down slightly to admire the panic in Bai Yiyi's eyes, smiling maliciously, "Has anyone ever told you that your acting skills are really poor, even worse than those prostitutes who sell their smiles?
If you want to seduce men like this, you might as well go to a brothel a few more times to hone your skills, but don't come out and embarrass yourself again."
He actually knows everything!
Bai Yiyi thought her plan was perfect, but she didn't know that the other party had already seen through her. Her cleverness had already become a joke.
"Then... why did you go to save me just now, even at the cost of having a conflict with Princess Jingmin." Bai Yiyi asked with tears in her eyes, still unwilling to give up.
He clearly cared so much about her safety just now.
Li Ziheng looked at her coldly and mercilessly. Bai Yiyi suddenly came to her senses and asked with wide eyes, "Could it be that you mistakenly thought that Gu Jin was captured by Princess Jingmin, so you rushed to save her?"
Li Ziheng chuckled, "It seems you are not that stupid."
Bai Yiyi's heart broke bit by bit, tears streaming down her cheeks uncontrollably, "How could this happen, how could this happen..."
Li Ziheng had no sympathy for the beautiful woman, he just watched coldly and said: "Your method is really ugly, do you think the children of officials in the capital are all fools?
Since you are Gu Jin's cousin, I will give you one last piece of advice. Hurry up and find an honest man to marry. You can't afford the luxury of the capital city!"
