With a creak, the wooden door slowly opened.
Gu Mingyue raised her head with a smile and saw Mo Jiecheng's extremely gloomy face outside the door.
Ji Wanrong took a Qingliang Jieshu Pill and stood calmly in the shadows, with his hands folded across his chest, looking extremely relaxed.
But Mo Jiecheng, who was standing next to Ji Wanrong, was completely exposed to the sun.
He was sweating profusely, with an abnormal blush on his face, and even his black hair seemed to be burning.
Gu Mingyue's face froze, and that proud smile disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"Wang... Your Highness... Why are you here suddenly?" Gu Mingyue said in a panic, staggered several steps, walked to Mo Jiecheng's side, and planned to hold his hand.
Unexpectedly, Mo Jiecheng shook off her hand, lifted up the hem of his clothes, and walked into the house on his own.
"Where's the Queen Mother? Even if the Queen Mother came to summon Ji Wanrong, she shouldn't let people stand in the sun for so long, right?"
Mo Jiecheng said with hidden anger, his voice was still a little hoarse, and he stepped over the threshold, as if he was looking for someone in the house.
Gu Mingyue, who was following him, was initially a little confused when she heard these words.
But when she turned to look at Ji Wanrong's smiling face, her heart completely sank.
This bitch!
When Ji Wanrong walked slowly to Gu Mingyue's house, Mo Jiecheng also rummaged around, gritted his teeth, sat on the main seat and took a sip of tea.
Except for Caiyue, he didn't find anyone, let alone the queen.
Mo Jiecheng wiped the sweat from his face, suppressed the anger in his chest, and took a long breath.
There was a burning pain in his back. He sat on the main seat, staring directly at Gu Mingyue and Ji Wanrong with his dark eyes.
"Where's the queen?"
Mo Jiecheng asked with a cold face.
Gu Mingyue felt the hostility all over Mo Jiecheng's body, and her body trembled suddenly.
But she was a little lucky that the prince seemed to be so angry that he asked some random questions and didn't blame her for letting him stay out in the sun for so long.
But she didn't know what happened, so she could only wave her hands hurriedly and speak truthfully, "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't know what happened. There are only Caiyue and Weichen in this room!"
"The king has seen it!"
Mo Jiecheng gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and directed his anger at Ji Wanrong, "You said that on the second day of your wedding, you want me to accompany you to meet the elders! Ji Wanrong, what on earth do you want to do! "
When Ji Wanrong heard Mo Jiecheng's angry questioning, he stood there obediently, with a somewhat innocent look in his eyes.
"There is no queen in the first place!" She blinked towards Mo Jiecheng, hiding the cunning in her eyes.
Seeing Ji Wanrong's innocent look, Mo Jiecheng felt even more angry. He took a deep breath and heard Ji Wanrong continue.
"I met Caiyue in the morning. She said that the lady official had seized my dowry because of my lack of etiquette and refused to let me have breakfast. She asked me to come and see the female official immediately. When the female official feels better, she can take care of her. Return me the dowry and give me another bite to eat."
"I heard Caiyue say that the female official is the powerful person in the palace's backyard. She has a high position and needs a new wife to serve tea to her. I guess the female official should be a nanny who has been kind to the prince, right?"
"I didn't know before that I was willing to apologize. So after I cured General Dong, I was very hungry, so I called the prince together to pay my respects..."
Ji Wanrong was very articulate and explained the matter clearly in a few words, making it impossible for anyone to find fault.
The more Mo Jiecheng listened, the darker his face became.
"Who knew this nanny was so young! But the nanny was angry, and it was right for the prince and I to stand a little longer. If the prince hadn't been injured, I would have been really worried, and I would have asked the nanny for advice. She How on earth are they maintained!?”
Hearing this, Mo Jiecheng's chest rose and fell suddenly. He slapped the table and stood up from the chair.
"How could she be my nanny!"
The more he listened, the more he understood what was going on.
The female officer sent by the queen did not like Ji Wanrong and wanted to deliberately make things difficult for her, so she specially withheld her dowry and deliberately called away the people in the yard and asked her to stand in the sun and wait.
Who would have thought that Ji Wanrong would not be able to make things difficult for him, but he would make things difficult for him!
He was sweating profusely and exposed to the sun for a stick of incense. His head was dizzy and his throat was smoking!
Although Mo Jiecheng hated Ji Wanrong, he couldn't bear to see other people's dirty tricks.
He looked at Gu Mingyue expressionlessly, and his cold eyes made her hair stand on end.
"Do you know how to write the following words "guilty"?
When Gu Mingyue heard this, she knelt down at Mo Jiecheng's feet, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I don't know that Your Majesty, you are sunbathing outside!"
After she finished speaking in a tearful tone, she stretched out her hand to hug Mo Jiecheng's leg, but Mo Jiecheng suddenly pulled his foot away, with a disgusted look in his eyes as if he had touched something dirty.
Gu Mingyue looked at his eyes and felt very sad.
"No matter how bad Ji Wanrong's behavior is or how bad her methods are, I, the king, and the queen will deal with her. When will it be your turn?"
Mo Jiecheng was speaking with a hoarse voice and a split voice. It seemed that he had really been sunburned just now.
Ji Wanrong's mouth twitched when he heard that he was scolded again for no reason.
Every word Mo Jiecheng said almost hit Gu Mingyue's heart. She raised her head and looked up at him with tears in her eyes, shaking her head.
"Weichen just knows that you don't like her and can't stand the dirty tricks she uses to hurt you, so she plans to punish you with small punishments. Weichen really can't bear to see you sad..."
When Mo Jiecheng heard this, he was silent for a while and then said: "Your methods are very mean, and in the end, I am the only one who gets hurt! How are you more noble than her?"
Gu Mingyue bit her lip and cried until she was speechless.
Ji Wanrong also lowered her head and said nothing. She felt that she was being scolded again for no reason.
Seeing that the female officer didn't speak, Mo Jiecheng calmed down for a while before speaking, "Female officer..."
Halfway through, he paused again and looked at Ji Wanrong.
Ji Wanrong was stunned for a moment and looked at him doubtfully, and then realized what Mo Jiecheng meant.
Mo Jiecheng was afraid that he didn't even remember Gu Mingyue's name.
"Your Majesty, her name is Gu Mingyue." Ji Wanrong reminded helplessly.
"Female officer Gu Mingyue, the following offender, made things difficult for the princess, and accidentally injured the king. Since it was sent by the queen mother and it is the first offender, I will be grounded for half a month and fined for three months, as a warning to others!"
After Mo Jiecheng said this, he didn't look at the people in the room anymore, but walked out alone.
When Ji Wanrong saw Mo Jiecheng leaving, he hurriedly followed him.
She was so preoccupied with thinking about her dowry and food that she didn't bother to worry about Mo Jiecheng's expression and said hurriedly, "My lord, what about the dowry and food you promised me before?"
Mo Jiecheng looked back at her and slowly stopped.
"I will immediately ask Chongzhou to handle it personally. As long as you can cure Uncle Dong, I will never deliberately make things difficult for you."
Ji Wanrong breathed a sigh of relief. She was tired from last night and today, and her chest was pressed against her back due to hunger.
But Mo Jiecheng's sharp gaze slowly scanned her face, and then he looked into her eyes carefully and spoke coldly.
"Ji Wanrong, I think you have changed and are different from before."
