The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 136 You Should Have Known It Long Ago
Jiang Wenqing turned and left. Lin Mowan stood aside and said nothing. She just lowered her eyes indifferently and was about to leave. However, when she passed by Gongshu Tingyue, she was stopped by Gongshu Tingyue.

"Lin Mowan."

Lin Mowan paused, turned back calmly, looked at her sincerely, and answered seriously: "I'm here, what can I do for you, Madam?"

She was considerate and gentle, not at all like someone who had just had a falling out. This made Gongshu Tingyue feel a chill involuntarily when he looked at her concerned face. This was the first time that happened.

Meeting her calm gaze that showed no trace of flaws, Gong Shu Tingyue's lips trembled, and his bloodshot eyes seemed to wish he could pounce on her and tear her to pieces.

Perhaps sensing the danger, Yuzhi walked slowly and quietly forward, giving Gongshu Tingyue a warning look.

Gongshu Tingyue immediately came to her senses and pinched her thigh to let her reason prevail. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Who are you?"

Hearing her question, Lin Mowan did not answer immediately, but a hint of mocking smile gradually emerged in her originally calm eyes.

With Yuzhi around, Gongshu Tingyue didn't dare to do anything. He just stared at Lin Mowan with his eyes like flames. After a long time, Lin Mowan smiled indifferently and said, "You are really a noble person who forgets things easily, but you are so powerful that I think you will remember it even without me saying it, right?"

After she finished speaking, she smiled sweetly in Gongshu Tingyue's eyes full of confusion, and left with Yuzhi. Gongshu Tingyue just looked at her gradually receding back in confusion and daze, but he couldn't remember where he had seen this person before.

She pushed him away fiercely as usual and yelled, "How dare you! How dare you, a lowly thing, stop me! How many heads do you have!!"

The guards lowered their heads but showed no intention of moving aside. One of them said, "Madam, please calm down. We are just following orders. Please don't embarrass us."

"and many more!"

But she forgot that she was no longer the Princess Showa who could get whatever she wanted. Before she took two steps, she was stopped by the guards.

It was not until Lin Mowan's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor that Gongshu Tingyue seemed to have just realized something. He subconsciously took a step forward and hurriedly chased after her to ask for clarification.

As they spoke, the two of them glanced at each other, picked up the person and threw him into the room, ignoring her screams. Finally, they quickly closed and locked the door in one go.

Gongshu Tingyue could only bang on the door and yell, "Let me out! You bastards! How dare you lock me up! I am the Princess Zhaohe, who was personally appointed by the late emperor! You are courting death! Bastards! I will kill you! I will definitely kill you!!"

Then there was a piercing roar, but the guard standing at the door seemed to be completely deaf to it, with his back straight...

Later, when Lin Mowan saw Gongshu Beicheng again, it was seven days later. At that time, perhaps unable to withstand the successive blows, the old lady was seriously ill and was almost half paralyzed in bed.

The old lady
No one else was allowed to serve her, so she specifically asked Lin Mowan to serve her. Lin Mowan didn't refuse. She just chatted with her, supervised her to take medicine, and occasionally went out with Xue Zhong to get her medicine. It was not a difficult task. The day she met Gongshu Beicheng again, Lin Mowan was going out to get medicine for the old lady. As soon as she got off the carriage, she saw Gongshu Beicheng coming out of the medicine shop.

She paused at the door of the pharmacy. To be honest, she was quite surprised. What kind of medicine did the dignified Prince Guangning have to come in person to get? Couldn't he just send a servant to come?
While Lin Mowan was stunned, Gongshu Beicheng also saw her. Their eyes met, but Lin Mowan subconsciously looked away. Perhaps because she had used Gongshu Tingyue to make him fall, she instinctively felt indebted.

But when he saw that it was him, a blazing light suddenly lit up in Gongshu Beicheng's originally calm eyes, and he strode towards this side.

"Awan?" He was a little happy at first, but when he thought of the place where they met, the light in his eyes gradually faded, followed by endless worry: "Why are you here? Are you sick? Don't you have a maid to serve you? Why do I ask you to come and get the medicine yourself?"

His face was full of nervousness and his voice was loud, which attracted the attention of passers-by. But fortunately, they only took a quick look and left.

Lin Mowan smiled awkwardly and quickly stopped him: "No, no, Your Highness, don't worry, I'm fine. I came out to help the old lady get medicine. The old lady's old illness relapsed and she is now bedridden and needs someone to take care of her."

Hearing this, Gongshu Beicheng's nervous expression eased a little, and he nodded thoughtfully, but he was still a little dissatisfied: "In this huge Jiang family, there is no maid or servant who can come out to get medicine. Why do you have to come?"

Hearing the dissatisfaction in his words, and seeing Xue Zhong's ugly face, Lin Mowan smiled and tried to smooth things over: "That's fine, it's just a prescription. I don't have much to do anyway, and I don't trust the servants' extravagant spending. I'll just follow Uncle Xue for a walk, it won't take much effort."

After she said this, Gongshu Beicheng's expression eased a little. After a moment's silence, Lin Mowan handed the prescription in her hand to Xue Zhong and asked Xue Zhong to go in and get the medicine while she went to talk to Gongshu Beicheng aside.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry for getting you into trouble because of what happened that day." Lin Mowan said, lowering her eyes silently. Although she didn't know why he pretended to be the person who saved her, she was sure that this person was indeed related to her, otherwise he wouldn't know so much.

Putting this matter aside, for now, let's put one thing in perspective. Gongshu Beicheng treated her very well, and this apology was naturally from the heart.

But in response to her apology, Gongshu Beicheng smiled. Hearing his slightly cynical smile, Lin Mowan was stunned and looked up at him suspiciously and blankly.

After a while, he stopped laughing. There was no sign of anger on his face. He just looked at Lin Mowan tenderly, and then said, "In fact, I guessed it when the princess pointed me out."

Lin Mowan was stunned, not knowing what to say for a moment, but he just paused and continued, "When I received your letter at Qingqiu Temple, I was really happy that you would meet me alone."

"Later, when Showa mentioned this matter in the Imperial Study, I realized it belatedly. You should have known all along that she had sent someone to catch you, right?"

He asked, his tone somewhat tentative but also somewhat certain. Lin Mowan felt more and more guilty. She just bit her lip and said nothing, which was considered as her agreement.

But he didn't seem to be angry, he just smiled at her with relief: "Okay, I don't mind it, don't think about it, as long as you get the result you want."

Hearing this, Lin Mowan looked up at him in surprise, but he still just smiled gently at her. At this moment, she felt like a stone was pressing on her heart. She couldn't tell what she felt, but she felt a little breathless.
