Chapter 58 Was Discovered
When Zhao Ru came over, Gu Zhang was sitting there, looking at the center of the lake, half of his face was illuminated by the moonlight, and half of his face was hidden in the darkness.

But even if he could only get a glimpse of half of his face, he could still deduce how beautiful his complete face should be from this half of his face.

Zhao Ru was a little dazed looking at it for a while, until Gu Zhang turned his head and cast his eyes on her, Zhao Ru woke up in a daze at this time.

She took a few steps forward and said, "My lord ordered me to come, but what's the matter?"

Gu Zhang didn't answer her immediately, his eagle-like eyes directly scanned Zhao Ru's whole body, as if he had seen her thoroughly from inside to outside.

For some unknown reason, Zhao Ru felt a sudden panic in his heart when he was stared at by such eyes, feeling as if he had been seen through something.

Soon she calmed herself down, she had never done anything wrong to Gu Zhang, so there was no need to be so alarmed.

"I know you've always been smart, guess what, why did the king call you here?"

Gu Zhang slowly retracted his gaze, his tone was indifferent, and he couldn't tell what his mood was at the moment.

Zhao Ru, who lowered his head beside him, hesitated all of a sudden. If it was before, he might not hesitate to say an answer in order to please Gu Zhang.

But today, like an animal's instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, Zhao Ru couldn't let himself say that anymore, as if something terrible would happen if he said it.

In the end, Zhao Ru could only truthfully say: "The subordinates don't know, so please ask the prince to clarify."

If she was not in the army, Zhao Ru would rarely call herself a subordinate, because she felt that she was not very close to Gu Zhang.

So she changed her self-proclaimed without permission. Although Gu Zhang knew about it, he didn't blame her and didn't ask her to change it back.

At that time, Zhao Ru was overjoyed and felt that he was a different existence to him.

But now, she was a little uncertain, so she simply changed her self-proclaimed name, and wanted to test it out like this. What is Gu Zhang's attitude now?

I don't know whether Gu Zhang noticed it but didn't want to care about it, or didn't notice it at all, he just sneered, his voice was frighteningly cold: "It's really a good one who doesn't know."

At that time, Zhao Ru's heart was a little cold, the prince seemed to have changed a lot, and he was no longer sure what the prince was thinking.

So after being reprimanded by the prince, Zhao Ru didn't hesitate too much, but said honestly: "Please tell the prince clearly."

"That day you went to Miss Li's appointment, why did you watch Miss Li make things difficult for Liu Chanyi?" Gu Zhang probably saw that she really didn't understand, and said with some disappointment.

She really doesn't like girls in Yundu, but isn't she fighting on the battlefield to protect all the people in Daqing?

Don't the women in Yundu count as Daqing citizens?When Zhao Ru first joined the army, he kept saying that he wanted to protect all the weak in the world, women and children, and keep foreign enemies out of the pass.

But what she did now, and what she said, are really a little different. Gu Zhang doesn't know who he should trust. Did she change, or did she pretend to be too similar?

"Wang... my lord." Zhao Ru's eyes flashed with panic, she never expected that the lord came to her today to talk about this matter?

He didn't take the initiative to investigate before, why did he suddenly investigate this matter today?Did someone say something to him?
"Zhao Ru, I remember that when you first joined the army, you said you wanted to protect the weak in the world, as well as women and children. Were you lying back then? Or have you changed over the years?"

Gu Zhang stood up and looked down at Zhao Ru, his eyes were full of disappointment.

Shocked by these words, Zhao Ru immediately looked up at Gu Zhang, wanting to explain something, but when his gaze touched the disappointment in his eyes, he suddenly became hoarse and could no longer speak.

"This king knows that you have always disliked the lady in the boudoir of Yundu, because you have never been treated well in the Zhao family in Yundu. Only when you became a general later, the life of you and your mother will get better. At that time, this king really I appreciate you very much and think you are talented, but now that I think about it, maybe this king has misjudged you."

"No, it's not." Zhao Ru did not know when her eyes were red, and she said tremblingly, "My lord, I was just fascinated for a while, Liu Chanyi had a marriage contract with the lord, so I didn't want to interfere with the Li family. Regarding the matter between the young lady and her, I never instigated the young lady of the Li family to find trouble with Liu Chanyi."

Gu Zhang's gaze stayed on her face for a long time, as if to make sure whether she was lying or not.

That look was very calm, as if he was not looking at his subordinates, not his comrades who stood shoulder to shoulder with him on the battlefield, but a stranger.

Zhao Ru's eyes were earnest, as if begging him to trust him again.

Finally, Gu Zhang looked away tiredly.

"Zhao Ru, let me trust you. Don't do that kind of thing again. If you have nothing to do, go back and rest early. The location of your mansion has been determined. You can move there in two days. " Gu Zhang said.

Zhao Ru knows that he still treats him with some kind of friendship, if not, he will never let it go easily.

He is a person who can't tolerate sand in his eyes. Maybe he can endure it in the court, but he has his own set of evaluation criteria for his subordinates.

Zhao Ru knew what she had done, probably touched his bottom line, but she didn't understand why a Liu Chanyi would make the prince so chaotic?It will also make the prince disappointed in himself.

She didn't want to move out of the palace, she wanted to stay in the palace, but this matter was discovered by the prince, how could she have the face to ask the prince to let her stay here?
"Yes, I see." Zhao Ru said this sentence slowly, her voice was hoarse and a bit scary.

However, Gu Zhang's footsteps did not stop for her. After getting the answer, he simply left.

Zhao Ru looked up at the empty surroundings, and suddenly felt that his heart was as cold as the quiet water in a lake.

After all, it was a wrong step. If he had known that there would be such a consequence, Zhao Ru would never have stood by.

But if I knew it earlier, I only knew it earlier, the tear that never wanted to fall fell down the moment Zhao Ru closed his eyes.

She didn't know why she was sad because she was about to be kicked out of the palace?Or is it because of the prince's attitude tonight?Or is it because, the prince seems to be somewhat concerned about Liu Chanyi?
