1294 Something 1
Hearing the sound, Gu Ruxue looked at her, not very pleased that a woman came to the Crown Prince at this moment. What would a woman come to the Crown Prince for anyway, other than some affairs.
There were no other ladies arranged by the Yao Family in the mansion. Did the Crown Prince go out and find someone else? Gu Ruxue was not very happy about this. The Crown Prince had promised her that he only had eyes for her! What was this woman doing here?
She looked at the woman and pursed her lips.
The woman looked very ordinary and old. She was unlike her and had a very plain look. The Crown Prince should not have fallen for a woman like this.
Gu Ruxue snorted.
Zhou Huailing got startled and snapped at the woman. “What is this crazy woman doing here? Drag her away and hit her twenty times!”
Then he turned to Gu Ruxue and tugged at her hands, hoping that Ruxue would not get mad by this.
The woman was startled by Zhou Huailing’s sudden order too. She said hurriedly, “I have something to tell the Crown Prince!”
Zhou Huailing was going to leave directly rather than hear her.
Junyi tugged at Zhou Huailing and reminded her. “Crown Prince, let’s just hear what she has to say. When we hear the story, we can handle everything properly.” Junyi was trying to indicate that the Crown Prince should understand what he should say to Gu Ruxue.
The Crown Prince was in too much a hurry to make such a rough decision. It would make them miss a lot of beneficial things.
This woman looked old, so she must be married. Her clothes were made of excellent materials, so she was apparently from some official family. And the colors of the clothes indicated that she was not the legal wife, so if she could run away from the back yard and come to the Crown Prince, she might have something to tell him.
And that might not have anything to do about love affairs.
He observed her and understood what was going on, but he needed to hear her out to see what she had to say, thus reminding the Crown Prince.
Junyi was chuckling inwardly, in fact. He was hoping that it was going to be some internal affairs from those noble families.
Hearing what Junyi said, Zhou Huailing showed more patience to the woman and took a closer look at her. He was sure that this woman had nothing to do with him.
He nodded.
He glanced at Gu Ruxue. “You can go inside if you feel cold here.”
“I will stay and listen with you, Crown Prince.” Gu Ruxue answered straightforwardly. She had no intention of leaving. She was going to find out what this woman wanted from the Crown Prince!
Zhou Huailing nodded and did not feel worried.
Junyi believed that it was an okay decision, so he heard him out.
Zhou Huailing looked at the woman calmly, “Just spit it out.”
The woman let out a sigh of relief.
She was so worried that she would be beaten to death before she spilled out the secret.
She had been too anxious and hurried.
So she changed her tone and said politely, “The Crown Prince, I am General Liu’s concubine. I tried to meet you but had no other way except to wait for you here at the Crown Prince’s Mansion.”
“…”
“I am here to tell you something.”
