114. East Palace
The prince lives in the East Palace, and the East Palace is certainly magnificent.
There was still some distance from the main hall, beside the jade bridge and under the red wall, Gu Meishu stopped.
"You wait here." she said.
Chu Yunqing asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
"You are white and a man, how can you meet the Crown Princess?" Gu Meishu said.
Because of what happened before, Chu Yunqing could clearly feel that her attitude towards him seemed a little cold.
However, Mr. Chu didn't care. He still had doubts in his heart. There was no way he would be angry because of you. On the big issues of right and wrong, I won't doubt you.
Besides, he didn't come here necessarily to see the Crown Princess, but just to make sure she was safe and sound.
So, he smiled slightly and said, "Okay."
Seeing that he agreed so happily, Gu Meishu was startled, but she didn't say anything and walked towards the main hall.
Chu Yunqing noticed that the palace guards around him paid no attention to the two of them.
He folded his arms and leaned against the red wall, standing in the shadow, as if he had dozed off.
Not long after, Chu Yunqing's eyelids moved, he opened his eyes and looked in one direction. Over there, two figures, one tall and one short, followed by several palace maids, were walking this way.
He was stunned for a moment because he recognized who the other party was.
Gu He, and the little Taoist priest named Qing Shui.
The two sides were not far apart and quickly got close to each other.
Gu He was still dressed in plain clothes and a female crown, fresh and without any makeup, like a lotus in a pure pond.
Somehow, looking at her cold expression, Chu Yunqing seemed to always be able to see the shadow of another person in her.
Obviously I didn't feel anything when I first met, but with every contact, this feeling will become deeper and deeper.
As for the little Taoist priest next to him, wearing a fat and gorgeous Taoist robe, he was eating snacks in his hand, his cheeks were bulging, and his black eyes were moving around. At first glance, he seemed to have too many thoughts and was very troublesome.
At this time, Chu Yunqing saw them, and of course Gu He also saw him.
There was some surprise in her eyes. After all, given the status of the guy in front of her, it was not easy to enter the palace, not to mention being near the East Palace.
You got in with the Fang family last time, who did you follow this time?
But Gu He didn't ask. She wanted to suppress this weird thought of saying a few words to each other in an intimate way every time she saw him. This frightened and frightened her.
She forced herself to move forward, not even looking at him.
On the side, Qing Shui glanced at the two of them with his eyes, and then said: "Why don't you say hello?"
Gu He couldn't help but look at him, "Talk too much!"
Qingshui smiles are harmless to humans and animals.
Chu Yunqing was startled, then smiled, "Isn't this Taoist Master Qingshui? When will we have time to compete again?"
Qing Shui's face suddenly darkened. He thought of the scene where he plotted against the other party, but ended up escaping in embarrassment.
What a bastard! He thought, feeling that the pastries in his hands no longer tasted good.
"Why are you here?" Gu He asked as he started talking.
Chu Yunqing looked normal and said, "I'm waiting for someone."
"Who?" Gu He asked.
Chu Yunqing smiled and shook his head, obviously not wanting to answer.
Gu He glanced towards the east palace, "Do you still know the prince?"
Chu Yunqing was unhappy when he heard her tone. What, is this looking down on him? Is it something to be proud of knowing the prince? If he doesn't know him, he can't be here?
"I don't know." He said.
Gu He nodded, "I think so."
Chu Yunqing was so angry that he really wanted to go up and pinch her face. Seeing how cold she always looked, would it hurt?
"What are you doing here?" he asked.
"Do I still need to report to you?" Gu He said calmly.
Seeing the shame and annoyance in the other person's eyes, she felt inexplicably happy and excited in her heart, as if she felt really comfortable being so angry with him.
Gu He was already laughing from the bottom of his heart.
Chu Yunqing snorted, tilted his head, and ignored her.
"I'm here to deliver medicine to the Crown Princess." Gu He said.
Crown Princess? Chu Yunqing was stunned for a moment, then looked over.
Following Gu He were six or seven palace maids. They lowered their heads and each held a tray, like a food tray, covered with a lid.
Chu Yunqing sniffed subconsciously.
Seeing his appearance, Gu He couldn't help but smile.
After Chu Yunqing looked over, she immediately stopped smiling.
"It's the medicinal diet prepared by Senior Brother." Gu He said.
Chu Yunqing asked in confusion: "The princess is sick?"
"She has weak bones and takes medicine every half month." Gu He explained: "The imperial doctor in the palace couldn't see anything, so starting from last year, I, the Qingjing Sect, have been responsible for helping her take care of her health."
Chu Yunqing nodded, and then he thought, since Gu He came to deliver medicine today, it means that the Crown Princess should be fine.
"Sister, we should go in." Qing Shui glared at Chu Yunqing and urged.
Gu He nodded slightly to Chu Yunqing, and then walked towards the East Palace.
Qing Shui deliberately hung behind, and when he passed by Chu Yunqing, he turned around and made a face at him.
Chu Yunqing smiled, and then his face suddenly turned cold.
Qing Shui was startled by his sudden change of expression, and felt an inexplicable pressure from a mountain falling in front of his eyes. He couldn't help but let out an "ah", and when he turned his head, he bumped into the thigh of the palace maid beside him.
Fortunately, the palace maid walked carefully and did not drop the tray in her hand. Otherwise, the medicinal meal would be ruined, and she would have to be punished accordingly.
Gu He first glanced at Chu Yunqing, then frowned and looked at Qingshui, saying sternly: "Although you are young and can't control yourself, you must be sensible and not cause trouble for others."
Qing Shui quickly lowered his head and pretended to be honest, but secretly curled his lips.
Chu Yunqing could tell at a glance that this kid was probably tired of hearing this kind of preaching. On the surface he was being honest, but in reality he was full of slander.
Watching the group of people walk away, he shook his head and continued to wait for news from Gu Meishu.
…
The commotion happened suddenly, and Chu Yunqing by the wall opened his eyes in confusion.
That was the direction of the East Palace. The palace guards were running that way, and some palace maids and eunuchs were surrounded by the palace guards and were prohibited from moving.
He saw Gu He and Qing Shui walking out, but not like they usually did, but more like they were being scrutinized.
Gu He looked here. Although the distance was a bit far and he couldn't see her expression, Chu Yunqing could feel that the other person was looking at him.
Do you want yourself to do something?
But the next moment he knew that a palace guard had noticed him and rushed towards him shouting.
Chu Yunqing's eyes were focused, and he no longer cared about anything else. He stepped on the wall and pressed his feet against the wall. Then he activated his true energy, and like a gecko, he climbed over the several-foot-high palace wall with ease.
The palace guards below were stunned and just shot arrows at him in vain.
Taking one last look towards the East Palace, Chu Yunqing ran away without looking back.
He didn't know what exactly happened, and Gu Meishu didn't come out just now.
