The concubine was reborn, and the cold prince was made red in the face

"Be obedient, it's already midnight, go to bed early." Ling Xiao put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and kissed her on the forehead, "I haven't slept well in the past two days, and my face has become thin."

Zuo Xiangning smiled and watched him go outside.

She knew that he couldn't worry about her.

Zuo Xiangning pursed her lips and smiled softly, hugging the quilt and closing her eyes with peace of mind.

She fell asleep in a daze, and when she woke up, she found herself lying on the bed alone.

Lifting the bed curtain, she saw that the light in the west room was still on.

She put on some clothes, got out of bed and walked quietly to the door of Nishijima.

There were many letters on the desk in front of Ling Xiao. He was arranging them neatly and comparing them carefully one by one.

Feeling something strange, he looked up at the door and saw a woman wearing a rose-pink gown under the dim light, looking at him lovingly.

"Why are you awake? Did I wake you up?" Ling Xiao put down the things in his hands, walked up to Zuo Xiangning, and pulled her baby clothes up, "It's windy at night, be careful. Catch a cold."

"What are you busy with? Why don't you go to bed quickly?" Zuo Xiangning leaned in his arms and asked softly: "It's almost dawn, isn't it?"

"This is information sent from various places. I'll put it together and take a closer look." Ling Xiao hugged her and said, "If you sleep a little longer, it will still take two hours before dawn."

"What about you?" Zuo Xiangning asked, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

"Sleep." Ling Xiao picked up Zuo Xiangning from the ground, walked back to the inner room with her, hugged her and lay on the bed, smiling: "You can't sleep because I'm not with you, right? Then I will stay with you every night from now on to prevent you from having a bad sleep."

"I don't need you to accompany me." Zuo Xiangning pulled the quilt up and covered the two of them, "Go to bed quickly, innocence will soon dawn."

"Go to sleep, go to sleep." Ling Xiao patted her back and coaxed her to sleep.

When she was about to fall asleep, he suddenly whispered in her ear and asked: "Are you... feeling better?"

Zuo Xiangning blinked her eyes and said softly: "It's not okay."

"It's not healed yet?" Ling Xiao looked at her face worriedly, "How many days has it been? Let me see if it's too serious?"

Ling Xiao said, going to take off her pants.

Zuo Xiangning tugged at the waist of her pants nervously and said awkwardly: "I was kidding you. I'm fine now."

"Are you ready?" Ling Xiao stared at her little face with bright eyes, his hands touched her waist and rubbed back and forth on the edge of her clothes, "Are you really ready?"

Zuo Xiangning didn't dare to look directly at him when he looked at her.

"What do you want to do?" She took his hand and said softly: "You still have to support him."

Ling Xiao put his palm into her skirt and touched her smooth skin again and again, then reluctantly took it out and flattened her skirt, "Sleep, sleep, sleep quickly."

Zuo Xiangning secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If he insisted on doing it, she didn't think she could refuse, but if he could stop doing it, she knew it was out of love for her.

She snuggled into his arms, smiling and closing her eyes.

Ling Xiao got up in the morning and was getting dressed. Zuo Xiangning opened the bed curtain and asked, "Are you leaving? Why don't you finish breakfast here before leaving?"

"I have something to do and have to go out to the city." Ling Xiao buttoned up his coat, walked back to the bed, hugged her, and said softly: "You can sleep a little longer, you don't have to get up so early."

"Is there any news about Gu Zhiqing?" Zuo Xiangning asked worriedly. "Someone saw him in Cangshan Mountain. My people have passed by. I'll go take a look too. I'll be back before dark." Ling Xiao rubbed her hair and tucked her back into the quilt. "Be careful. Don't worry." Caught a cold."

"Be careful." Zuo Xiangning held his hand and said uneasily: "Gu Zhiqing is cunning and cunning. There is no need to talk about rules and morals with him."

Zuo Xiangning wanted to tell Ling Xiao that if she met Gu Zhiqing, she would just ask everyone to join him and kill him.

But she was afraid that what she said was so vicious would scare Ling Xiao.

"Don't worry about me." Ling Xiao smiled and left.

Zuo Xiangning watched Ling Xiao go out, lie down for a while, and then got up.

She stayed in her yard all day and didn't go anywhere.

In the afternoon, Zhang Tu entered Zuo Mansion and told Zuo Xiangning all the rumors about Gu Zhiqing in the past few days.

Zuo Xiangning already knew the specific situation, but listening to Zhang Tu's words was like a storyteller, she couldn't help but listen to it again with relish.

"There are rumors outside that the eldest princess entered the palace this morning and was going to the imperial mausoleum to cry to the Supreme Emperor and the Supreme Emperor. It is said that she is nearly fifty years old and finally found her long-lost biological son, but now she has been raped by a traitor. Designed to drive her out of the capital, this is forcing her to die, she will be killed in the imperial mausoleum..."

Zuo Xiangning was shocked when she heard this. What did the eldest princess say?

"Gu Zhiqing is not her son at all, why would she do this?" Zuo Xiangning was puzzled, "Does the eldest princess not want to find her biological son?"

Zhang Tu shook his head, "This started to spread in the capital in the afternoon. No one knows whether it is true or false yet."

The capital has always been calm.

Zuo Xiangning never expected that the eldest princess would react like this.

Not only was she not grateful to Ling Xiao for helping her recognize the truth and avoid being deceived, she even said such insulting words.

After Zhang Tu left, Zuo Xiangning felt even more unable to calm down.

When it got dark and Ling Xiao was not seen yet, she became even more restless. She only drank some porridge and stood on the porch anxiously waiting for Ling Xiao.

When Ling Xiao arrived, he found that her hands and feet were cold, and he couldn't help but said angrily: "Are you deliberately trying to get sick and make me anxious? I told you to wear more clothes, why didn't you listen? It's been windy these two days. Now, you're still standing outside... What do you want me to say about you?"

"Did you catch Gu Zhiqing?" Zuo Xiangning put her cold hands on his face.

Ling Xiao stuffed her cold hands directly into her clothes, "He is already dead!"

"He's dead?" Zuo Xiangning stared in shock, "Is it true?"

"My men chased them at Cangshan Mountain. During the fight, Gu Zhiqing's cousin's carriage fell off the cliff. Gu Zhiqing was stabbed in the right chest by Changfeng's sword and fell off the cliff." Ling Xiao said lightly: "I I took people down to the bottom of the cliff and saw their bodies. There were six of them in total."

Zuo Xiangning's heart was pounding.

She couldn't believe that Gu Zhiqing died like this?

"He actually died like that?!" Zuo Xiangning asked again, "Did you go to the bottom of the cliff and see his body with your own eyes?"

"I'll have their bodies brought back to the capital. I'll make a decision after consulting the emperor tomorrow." Ling Xiao said, "Now that he's dead, we can sleep peacefully without having to guard against him day and night."

Zuo Xiangning also breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking of Zhang Tu's words, she said worriedly: "There are rumors outside that the eldest princess came to the palace to meet the saint this morning, and there was a big fuss. They didn't mention punishing Gu Zhiqing, but they wanted to punish her. did you mean……"
