An Zhining, who had been waiting outside, heard the quarrel between the two and unconsciously raised her lips. She had deliberately told Concubine Zhen about this, otherwise she would never have had the chance to get close to Gu Beichen.
Thinking of this, An Zhining hurriedly walked towards the courtyard on the side. When entering the courtyard, he did not forget to raise his hand and put the hair behind his ears.
But before she could enter the courtyard, she was stopped by Qingfeng, "No one is allowed to enter without the prince's order."
Looking at Qingfeng's expressionless face, An Zhining couldn't help biting her lower lip. Her eyes fell on the closed door behind Qingfeng, and she was absolutely unwilling to let this opportunity go so easily.
"The prince has just returned from Concubine Zhen's courtyard. Concubine Zhen asked me to come here."
I don't know if An Zhining's expression was too serious when he said these words, but even Qingfeng had a bit of hesitation on his face. Then, although he didn't let An Zhining in, he turned around and told Gu Beichen about the matter.
After Gu Beichen sneered, he guessed that it was definitely not Princess Zhen who ordered her to come here, but he was also curious about what An Zhining wanted to do.
"That's all, let her in."
Not long after Qingfeng went out, he made an inviting gesture to An Zhining.
An Zhining, who originally thought there was no hope, did not expect things to turn out like this. He immediately came to the hospital with a face of joy and couldn't help but look around.
After entering the room, An Zhining put away her curiosity and excitement, came to Gu Beichen and leaned down to salute.
"I've met the prince."
"What's the matter with you?"
Gu Beichen didn't even look at the person in front of him, he just wanted to find out what she wanted to do here.
Even though she could hear the impatience in Gu Beichen's words, An Zhining did not feel displeased at all, "Your Majesty, what the Concubine said just now was not sincere, but Your Majesty should really consider it for my sister."
As soon as these words came out, Gu Beichen turned his head and stared in front of him.
Such cold eyes made An Zhining shudder, but in front of Gu Beichen, she had to stand here bravely, not avoiding Gu Beichen's gaze at all.
"After all, my sister is still waiting to get married. If such unrealistic rumors spread, how could it be beneficial to my sister?"
An Zhining looked like she was thinking about An Ruowan, but Gu Beichen also guessed what she wanted to do.
"If these empty words will really damage An Ruowan's reputation, then now that you have openly lived in the palace, it will damage your reputation."
Gu Beichen's words were meant to be mocking, but An Zhining seemed to not understand them at all and actually looked at Gu Beichen, looking shy.
"So, does the prince care about me?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Beichen immediately looked away, as if he didn't expect An Zhining to have such thoughts. He felt speechless for a while, making him frown slightly.
An Zhining raised her eyes and looked in front of her again at this time, "But the prince is right to worry. My daughter is now living in the palace as the goddaughter of Concubine Zhen. But if the prince is willing to give my daughter another identity, I would also be very grateful."
Hearing this, Gu Beichen immediately snorted, "Really? What kind of identity do you want, my king's concubine?"
An Zhining didn't expect Gu Beichen to speak directly. For a moment, he didn't know whether to admit the matter or what expression to make.
But Gu Beichen didn't give her time to react, "I will never let someone like you come in."
After the words fell, An Zhining seemed to have just come to her senses, and she was stunned on the spot, "Your Majesty, is there anything I did wrong..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Gu Beichen's impatient wave.
"You know what you did wrong, so why bother pretending to be innocent here."
After saying these words, Gu Beichen ordered people to drive An Zhining out. He thought she would say something useful, but he didn't expect that it would be nothing more than that in the end.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what your words mean, and I don't know what I did wrong. If I just want to get closer to the prince, this is not considered a mistake. Then I admit this mistake." ”
An Zhining looked at Gu Beichen's face with disgust, but still couldn't help but had the courage to say these words.
But Gu Beichen didn't take her words to heart at all, and he didn't even give her a look.
After An Zhining was thrown out, Gu Beichen's tightly knitted brows gradually relaxed, and the image of An Ruowan walking towards him after winning the competition appeared in his mind unconsciously.
At that time, An Ruowan was still smiling, and her confident look was more pleasing to the eye than An Zhining's pretended soft look.
As night fell, the surrounding area became quiet, but from one courtyard, a heart-rending roar could be heard.
In the open space next to the courtyard, Arina was watching the scene in front of her with interest. She stared at Ban Ruo's painful expression, and her smile became even wider.
However, Ban Ruo was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, "Princess, stop, I beg you."
These words of begging for mercy fell into Arzina's ears, but she immediately rolled her eyes. After all, she had finally found this kind of fun. How could Ban Ruo Qingpiao and her lips touch her and ask her to give up? How could this be possible? .
"In the case of my sister, I beg the princess to be noble and give her the antidote."
Ban Ruo held his hands tightly and really didn't understand why he could solve the source of pain for countless other people, but why he couldn't save his only relative in this world.
At this moment, his sister's screams were incessant. Banruo really had no strength. He watched this scene happen but could do nothing.
His sister's situation is very special. Ban Ruo can't find any trace of illness on her, but she will suddenly get sick at a fixed time. He has not seen this kind of pain on her for a long time.
Banruo had tried giving medicine to his sister before, but it didn't work. In the end, only Arina had the antidote in her hands that could suppress her sister's illness.
Just for those antidotes, Ban Ruo would follow Arina without hesitation.
When Arina came to find him that day, she said that she wanted him to help deal with someone. Ban Ruo didn't take it seriously at all, and instead swore to Haikou that he would definitely win her.
But no one thought that the final result would be that Banruo would lose completely.
Even though he knew very well that Arina would never let him go easily, he still naively thought that Arina would not take action against his sister.
"Princess, you wanted to torture me and you have already done it. My heart is like a knife right now!"
