Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 253
Zhao Min just told Gu Lingqing about his experience in the past few days, and of course ignored Gu Qi's bastard words and the grievances he suffered, and just said that Gu Qi locked himself in the basement.

How calm Zhao Min said made Gu Lingqing feel so uncomfortable. If Gu Qi stood in front of him at this time, he would definitely draw his sword.

Gu Lingqing wanted to tell Zhao Min a lot of things in her heart, and wanted to ask her a lot of questions, but it was too late now, and she could clearly see the tired look on Zhao Min's face.

"Nurse, Qinlan."

After receiving the news that Miss, no, she is now the princess, Qin Lan and Gu Naimo rushed to Gu Lingqing's yard without stopping and waited outside.

At this moment, when she heard Gu Lingqing calling herself, Qin Lan felt that the voice was like the sound of nature, and she didn't dare to delay for a moment, so she hurried in: "My lord, what's your order?"

"Serve the princess and take a hot bath, remember, be careful of the wound on the princess's body, don't get wet."

"Yes, my lord, this servant knows." Qin Lan's voice was choked with sobs.

After Gu Lingqing went out, Qin Lan went straight to Zhao Min's bed, and with a "plop", she knelt down directly towards her.

"Princess, it's all my servant's fault that I failed to save you in time, which caused you to suffer so much."

The rules in Zhao Min's courtyard have always been that slaves and maidservants are not allowed to kneel at will, and they must use you instead of you to address each other.

In this regard, Qinlan did a good job.

Nanny Gu at the side looked at Qinlan crying out of breath, her eyes were slightly red, and it was the first time she showed such outward emotions in front of people.

Zhao Min's hands and feet were smeared with medicine, and she lay on the bed not daring to move easily: "Qinlan, get up quickly, what are you doing? Nanny, help her up quickly."

This time, Nanny Gu did not listen to Zhao Min's words, but knelt down next to Qin Lan: "Princess, the old servant has failed in his duty and caused the concubine to suffer so much. Please punish the concubine."

For a long time, Zhao Min, Nanny Gu, and Gu Lingqing have experienced so much together. In her heart, she has long regarded Nanny Gu as her elder.

As an elder, how could Zhao Min have the heart to see her kneel down like this?
Immediately, regardless of the injury on his foot, he lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed: "Nurse, get up quickly."

Seeing that she was about to get out of bed, Gu Momo quickly got up without her saying anything, and held Zhao Min's body: "Princess, what are you doing, getting up, the old slave is not worth it."

Zhao Min slapped Nanny Gu's hand: "Mommy, what are you talking about? Have you forgotten our relationship?"

"What's the relationship?" Gu Momo was stunned and asked in a murmur.

"We are family."

When Mother Gu heard what Zhao Min said, her heart hit her heart, and she immediately burst into tears.

"Gu Po." Zhao Min called her by the previous title, and put his hand on hers.

"Have you forgotten how leisurely the three of us were in the small courtyard in the mountain village before? After arriving in this imperial city, although there are a little more restraints, I still miss the old time very much in my heart, and I don't want it Changing a place, the way we get along has changed, I have always been Zhao Min from before, Gu Po, how about you?"

Yes, Mother Gu's eyes moved slightly. Since arriving in the imperial city, she has been careful every step of the way, for fear that if she makes a wrong step, it will attract criticism and bring Gu Lingqing and Zhao Min a fatal disaster.

So when she first arrived in the imperial city, the first thing Gu Nanny taught Zhao Min was etiquette. She hoped that Zhao Min would be good and able to survive in this cannibalistic imperial city.

But after a long time, maybe Nanny Gu has already forgotten her original intention, living a repetitive life like a machine all day long, and getting along with Zhao Min has made her less comfortable and more alienated between master and servant.

"Girl..." Madam Gu called out the address she had given to Zhao Min in the past, and the two of them held hands tightly together. After this incident, they really opened their hearts to each other.

Qin Lan, who was still kneeling aside, was also very moved when she saw this scene: "Princess..."

Zhao Min touched her tears, looked at Qin Lan, and said with a bit of blame in her tone: "Qin Lan, what are you still kneeling for? Didn't you hear what I said to the mother just now?"

Qin Lan laughed through her tears, and quickly stood up: "Yes, Wangfei."

Seeing that Qinlan wasn't crying as before, Zhao Min showed a smile: "That's right, this is the Qinlan I know."

Afterwards, the two of them didn't dare to delay any longer, they took care of Zhao Min carefully and went to the shower room at the back, carefully helping her to take a bath, so as not to let her wound get wet.

Gu Lingqing, who had been standing outside the door, knocked on the door when she heard movement in the room.

"My lord, the princess has finished her bath."

I heard that when Gu Lingqing opened the door, she saw Zhao Min lying on the bed after bathing.

"Okay, you guys go down first."

After Gu Nanny and Qin Lan saluted Gu Lingqing, they retreated and closed the door.

Gu Lingqing looked at Zhao Min who had just taken a bath, and felt infinite warmth in her heart. No matter what, it would be good for her to come back. It was a blessing.

"Husband, go take a bath and rest early." After this night of tossing, the sky is almost dawn.

Gu Lingqing froze in place, then smiled brightly, sat on the side of the bed, and stared at Zhao Min: "Min'er, why did you call me just now?"

Zhao Min was a little embarrassed by his straight eyes, lowered his head, and called again: "Husband."

It's just that the sound was as quiet as a fly, if it wasn't for the silence in the room, Gu Lingqing would not have heard it.

But even so, Gu Lingqing is already very satisfied in her heart, everything must be done slowly, not overnight.

Gu Lingqing's hearty laughter came from next to his ears, and the back of Zhao Min's ears, who laughed straight away, slowly turned red.

Zhao Min felt a little shy, stretched out her hand, and lightly slapped Gu Lingqing's arm. Gu Lingqing leaned forward, kissed Zhao Min lightly on the forehead, helped her tuck the quilt, and carefully ordered : "You sleep well, you can see me when you open your eyes."

Zhao Min nodded lightly, and closed his eyes under Gu Lingqing's gaze.

Seeing this, Gu Lingqing got up and went out, and went directly to the study. There are still many things waiting for him to do and investigate, especially Gu Qi's whereabouts.

After hearing the sound of the door closing, Zhao Min slowly opened his eyes. Although he had escaped from Gu Qi's grasp, there was always a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart.
