Chapter 151: Dying Here Is Not a Humiliation

Thanks?

Gu Yizhi paused in confusion, "Xie He?"

"Thank you, Prince, for saving Brother Zhao." Lin Rongrong found that closing her eyes and not looking at Gu Yizi didn't seem so scary anymore, so she spoke in one breath, "It was Zhao Liu. He helped me before. Prince saved Zhao Liu's life, so I should thank him. I was... I was really scared, so I wanted to ask Xia Surong to thank him on my behalf, but Xia Surong said that if I really wanted to thank him, I should do it to him in person."

Faced with Lin Rongrong's strange reason, Gu Yizi was not interested in listening any further and just replied calmly, "I understand."

Hearing such a cold voice, Lin Rongrong shuddered.

Is this unhappy?

why?

Didn't Lin Rongrong understand what she had done wrong? She had thanked him and explained it clearly. Could it be that she was just too scared?

Opening her eyes and seeing that Gu Yizi's cloud boots had turned, Lin Rongrong hurriedly said: "I... No, it's not my fault. I really can't become big enough to not be afraid of you. I'm not as powerful as Xia Surong, so I can't become big enough to not be afraid of you."

After saying this, Lin Rongrong was so scared that tears came to her eyes.

The prince is really scary.

Gu Yizi stopped again and asked, "What did you say?"

"I...I...don't dare anymore." Lin Rongrong couldn't hold back her tears any longer and burst into tears.

There was no one else here, otherwise it would look like Gu Yizi bullying a child.

But now Gu Yizi didn't care about that anymore. He took a step forward and said patiently, "I don't blame you. I just want to ask you, what did you say just now?"

"I'm not feeling well?"

Chuda said something tentatively, and when there was no response from above her head, she added: "I can't do it, I'm not afraid of you."

"Further down!"

Lin Rongrong shuddered again, closed her eyes and cried, "I'm not as strong as Xia Surong, I can't not be afraid of you. I was wrong, please don't send me back to the Lin family."

"Calm down." Gu Yizi's ears were ringing from her crying, but he still pressed her, "How do you know she's not afraid of me?"

"Xia Surong said it himself."

Gu Yizhi moved slightly and asked anxiously, "When?"

"That day, after we dealt with Zhou Shenhua and Xia Surong escorted you, the prince, out of the Chuihua Gate, I asked her if she wasn't afraid of you. She said she wasn't, so I wanted to ask Xia Surong to speak to you on my behalf..."

Before she could finish her words, a gust of wind blew past her, causing Lin Rongrong to close her eyes quickly.

When he opened his eyes again and was about to continue speaking, Gu Yizi's cloud boots were no longer in front of him.

I raised my head and looked around, but there was no sign of Gu Yizi at all.

Was she having a dream, or was she seeing a ghost?

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. Lin Rongrong didn't dare to stop for a moment and ran away.

She didn't even notice that Gu Yizi had already walked down the corridor behind her, turned through the triple moon gate, and went straight to the Yinlin courtyard through another corner gate.

Xia Zheng was still sitting under the banyan tree looking at the account book, but there was no one else around at the moment.

As if she felt being watched, Xia Zheng raised her head and saw Gu Yizi standing in front of the door. Her originally silent eyes immediately curved into crescents, and Gu Yizi's figure was reflected in her sparkling eyes.

"The prince is back." Putting down the account book, Xia Zheng stood up and came forward, saying, "I'll go cook a few dishes that the prince likes. Please stay for lunch."

Seeing her clear eyes looking at him without the slightest deviation, Gu Yizi's heart moved slightly as he recalled Lin Rongrong's words and the things in the storybook.

After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and grabbed Xia Zheng's hand and led her out, saying, "No need. I'm going to take you somewhere when I return home today."

Take her out?

Xia Zheng was dragged a few steps before she could ask. Seeing that there was no room to turn back, she could only follow obediently, feeling sorry for the delicious dishes she had prepared.

I had been preparing to be there since I heard that Gu Yi was on duty and was returning to the Duke's Mansion. I was thinking that I must hold him back today, but who would have thought that it would be in vain.

She didn't know where Gu Yizi was in such a hurry to take her, but he just walked out quickly without saying a word, so she didn't dare to ask.

He just got on the carriage and sat in the small carriage with Gu Yizhi.

This was not the large carriage that Gu Yizi usually used, but an extremely ordinary blue-topped carriage. There were thousands of them in Kyoto, and it was impossible to tell one from another.

No one followed him, so Changfeng was riding the horse alone.

"Prince, where are we going?" Xia Zheng felt anxious as she saw them heading out of the city.

In her two lifetimes, she had basically never left Kyoto, and there were not so few people leaving the city. Even outside Kyoto was not so peaceful at night.

Even though she is following Gu Yizi now, Xia Zheng still doesn't know how she offended him. Is he going to take her to the wilderness and punish her?

Come back and say she was in danger outside the city?

The more I thought about Xia Zheng, the more uneasy I became, and my palms couldn't help but sweat.

"What are you afraid of?" Holding Xia Zheng's hand, feeling the sweat on her palm and the cold fingertips, Gu Yizi turned his head and asked.

"I've never been out of Kyoto before, so I'm a little scared."

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Holding Xia Zheng's hand tighter, Gu Yizi looked at the city gate that was approaching outside the curtains, and calculated the time. It should be just right.

Xia Zheng didn't dare to say anything more and could only sit there obediently, staring secretly out the curtains.

Not long after leaving the city gate, the carriage turned off the official road and headed towards the forest path.

The deeper we go, the more desolate the area becomes.

Just when Xia Zheng's heart was in her throat, the carriage passed through the gorge between two mountains and the road suddenly opened up.

The small goose yellow flowers all over the ground are closely leaning against each other, like a flower carpet spread on the ground, boundless and swaying in the wind, and bursts of floral and grass fragrance rush into the carriage.

Xia Zheng had never seen such a vast and beautiful scenery. She even forgot her identity for a moment. She pulled her hand out of Gu Yizi's hand, lifted the car curtain and looked out.

There are mountains on both sides and endless horizon in front. Butterflies are flying among the flowers and the sun above is shining on the whole valley, which is so beautiful that it is dazzling.

But it was more of a feeling, a feeling of freedom, openness, and unrestrainedness, a feeling she didn't even dare to hope for.

Further in, a walled garden appeared among the flowers. On the red-painted gate hung a plaque with three words written on it - Yuliu Garden.

Xia Zheng recognized that handwriting; it was Gu Yizi's handwriting.

The carriage also stopped steadily in front of the door.

"Go out and take a look slowly. We still have plenty of time." Taking Xia Zheng's hand again, Gu Yizi led her down from the carriage.

Standing in front of the gate, looking at the beautiful scenery without any obstruction, Xia Zheng felt even more moved.

It felt like I had arrived at the secluded paradise described in travel notes.

"Like it?"

Xia Zheng nodded vigorously. Even if she was going to die here today, it would not be considered a humiliation. Perhaps her soul would be free and would no longer be trapped in the Anyang Marquis Mansion like in her previous life.

"Let's go in and take a look." Pushing open the door, Gu Yizi pulled Xia Zheng over the threshold and walked into the garden.
