Chapter 270 The Soft-Hearted Prince Gong

There is no need to ask about the rest, Jiang Zuiyao has probably guessed it.

I think Prince Gong's mother was made the crown prince when she was reigned, but in the end she was plotted to lose the position of crown prince because of her mother's death. Later, the new king ascended the throne and named him the prince, and sent him here.

"Girl, can you really help Your Highness?" Susu's words interrupted Jiang Zuiyao's thoughts. She probably knew what Susu wanted to ask, but she still asked back: "I don't know what Miss Susu is referring to."

"I just heard from Your Highness that you are here to help him." Su Su replied lightly, thought for a while, and said, "Your Highness is living a hard life now. I have been with Your Highness for many years and knows that he is wronged, so I really hope you can help him."

Looking at Susu's pure face, Jiang Zuiyao didn't know how to reply.

After hearing what Wuxian said, she probably knew that Shao Ziqing might really intend to help Prince Gong, but it was inevitable that he would be a bit too risky to seek power and usurp the throne. However, according to Shao Ziqing's temperament, he would definitely not help Prince Gong in vain. This was a deal.

Jiang Zuiyao only knew the whole thing, so she didn't dare to say too much, just replied with a faint smile.

Listening to the "whistling" wind outside, Jiang Zuiyao asked: "Is the weather in Qingguo so bad all year round?"

Su Su shook her head: "It's only the wind and sand here of Your Highness."

Aunt Cui interrupted angrily: "Your Majesty holds a grudge against Your Highness and sends Your Highness to this desolate place. I remember when I first came, there were only two people around You Su Su and you, and the court did not arrange anyone to serve Your Highness at all."

Su Su was also a little angry, but compared to Aunt Cui, she was not so excited, and just frowned and said, "The court only gave His Highness half the treatment that the prince should have, so that His Highness's life is very restrained."

Aunt Cui said excitedly: "It would be great if this half could be taken into your hands. The court distributed it, and after passing through the hands of corrupt officials, how much is left in His Highness? Just like the silver in this year's Spring Festival, there will be no news. It must have been corrupted by those dog officials."

"Then why don't you report to the court?" Jiang Zuiyao asked.

Su Su shook her head in disappointment: "It's useless. I didn't report it before. The officials either did it perfunctorily or left it alone."

Jiang Zuiyao now fully understood that the whole thing was probably done by Emperor Qing, otherwise the prince's things would not dare to act rashly even if the corrupt officials were brave.

At this moment, the door of the house was pushed open, and Prince Gong walked in and saw Jiang Zuiyao sitting in the room quite well and changing into clean clothes. His face turned cold.

Jiang Zuiyao knew why he was unhappy. She wanted to say something, but Su Su hurriedly stood up and said, "Your Highness, I brought her out."

When Prince Gong heard this, his face darkened: "Who asked you to let her go? Are my words so frivolous in your eyes?"

As a maid, Su Su was not afraid at all, but smiled gently: "Your Highness, you have always been generous and kind, and you can't stand her as a weak woman locked in the dark tower, right? It's not a way to treat guests if you are hungry and don't eat overnight."

Prince Gong was indeed not angry and said helplessly: "It's their fault first."

Su Su still smiled and advised: "No one is perfect, no one can do anything wrong with a sage, why should you make things difficult for a weak woman?"

Aunt Cui, who was standing beside him, also agreed, "That's right, you are a prince Gong. If this is spread, wouldn't it be verbal? If your highness is worried that she will run away, I will look at her for you."

Prince Gong glanced at Aunt Cui and felt helpless: "You can even make food on weekdays, can I give you the people to you with confidence?"

"Your Highness, don't be careful when I cook. I'm serious about it. Don't worry, if I look at this girl, she will never be able to escape." Aunt Cui treated Jiang Zuiyao as a weak woman, and she was so confident.

Seeing Susu and Aunt Cui say so many good things to him, Jiang Zuiyao said, "Your Highness Prince Gong, I can guarantee you that I will not escape until you see the person you want to meet."

Prince Gong looked at her with a cold face, looking at Jiang Zuiyao in front of him. After a long time, his eyes changed a lot, as if he had discovered something.

This made Jiang Zuiyao feel a little uneasy, thinking that Prince Gong was not seeing him on the first day, what was he looking at?

Su Su rarely saw Prince Gong seeing anyone like this, for fear that he would not treat Jiang Zuiyao well, so she spoke again: "Your Highness, you don't remember the villain's life. Don't be as knowledgeable as a girl's house. I will take good care of her for you, okay?"

The sound of Susu made Prince Gong retract his gaze. Whether he believed Jiang Zuiyao's words or because of Susu's affection, he left without saying a word.

This surprised Jiang Zuiyao a little. Prince Gong let her go?

Su Su looked at Jiang Zuiyao's unbelievable appearance and smiled at her, "Your Highness is kind-hearted and will not really make things difficult for you."

Aunt Cui also said, "Your Highness is soft-hearted, and you have Susu pleaded for you. You will definitely not punish you again, but you must not cause trouble again."

Everything rose because of Wuxian, but Jiang Zuiyao didn't explain a word, just nodded with a smile.

Aunt Cui looked at the sky outside and said, "You guys talk first, I have to prepare supper."

Aunt Cui left, and Su Su was the only one left in the room.

Just when Jiang Zuiyao didn't know what to say, Su Su asked, "Where has the young master who came with you?"

It seems that Prince Gong did not tell Su Su everything. Since that is the case, Jiang Zuiyao would not talk too much, and shook her head and pretended to be unaware of it: "I don't know either."

"Don't you know? Aren't you together?", facing Su Su's question, Jiang Zuiyao replied perfunctorily: "I really don't know. You took me to the tower to see him that day. After a while, Prince Gong came. After the two of them said a few words, he left."

No matter whether Su Su believed this or not, she didn't ask any more.

After looking at Jiang Zuiyao, he said, "You must be a noble person, right?"

"Me?" Jiang Zuiyao didn't know where Su Su said, and asked, "Why did you say this?"

"Look at your slender hands, they are very white and tender. At first glance, they are a servant. Even ordinary people will not be able to maintain them so well. And the way you look like someone is different."

“Where is different?”

"I can't say it either, well... I just don't dare to look down on it. Even if I don't have a noble family, I should be the master, right?"

Faced with Su Su's doubts, Jiang Zuiyao just smiled perfunctorily and didn't answer, and talked about some irrelevant words.
