When Li Shichen heard this, his expression froze instantly.

He came to care about Gu Qingyuan, but the other party didn't seem to care about him at all. Not only that, the other party didn't seem to care about him at all.

"I just want to ask if mother has given you any trouble." Li Shichen fiddled with the hem of his clothes awkwardly.

Gu Qingyuan looked at Li Shichen and frowned subconsciously.

She simply didn't understand why this person suddenly acted like this. At first he was acting like he was fighting to the death, but now he's like this?
"What do you mean, Crown Prince? Are you disappointed to see me come back safely?" Gu Qingyuan asked.

When Li Shichen heard this, he waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I... I'm just worried that my mother will embarrass you."

"Are you worried about me?" Gu Qingyuan suspected that there was something wrong with his human ears, otherwise why could he hear such outrageous words.

Suihan can worry about her, Mayue can worry about her, and even the passing dogs can worry about her, but Li Shichen can't.

This person never paid attention to her from the beginning, so how could he be worried about her?

Li Shichen nodded: "Yes, I'm worried about you, madam. My mother is indeed a little extreme sometimes, but she has good intentions, so don't take it to heart."

Sui Han, who was standing behind Gu Qingyuan, couldn't stand listening anymore. She took a step forward and said seriously: "Your Majesty, if you have anything to say, just tell me. Madam has something else to do later."

As soon as Suihan said this, Li Shichen frowned subconsciously.

He looked at Sui Han with a look of disgust, raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm just a slave. What qualifications do you have to say this to me?"

"Your Majesty, Suihan is right. Why don't you just tell me what you want when you come to my place? It's really disrespectful to beat around the bush like this." Gu Qingyuan said, sitting on the chair and pouring herself a cup of tea.

Li Shichen saw this, his Adam's apple rolled, and he said seriously: "I...I don't have any other intentions. I was with my father before. Thank you for your help. If you had told the truth at that time, my father would definitely punish me."

"So it's because of this." Gu Qingyuan's lips curved slightly, but she didn't expect that this worthless prince would still know how to say thank you.

Li Shichen nodded: "That's it, madam, I treated you like this before and you still concealed it for me. I...I really don't know how to thank you."

"It's easy!" Gu Qingyuan looked at Li Shichen: "Go and tell your mother-in-law not to cause trouble for me in the future. This is the greatest thank you to me."

"Mother, she is not causing trouble for you." Li Shichen paused: "She also wants you to get better and better. We children must understand her good intentions."

Gu Qingyuan never thought about asking Li Shichen to speak for her, but she didn't expect that the other party's reason for rejecting her was so fresh and refined.

Careful?

Haha, what a good intention!
He was so careful that all his eight hundred thoughts were focused on calculating her dowry.

"Your Majesty, if nothing happens, please come back." Gu Qingyuan paused and added: "Also, before I spoke for you in front of my father-in-law, I was not actually speaking for you, but my manpower is indeed If it’s not enough, the people brought by the prince can just fill it up. Of course, if you don’t want to, then forget it.”

"No, no, no, I am willing!" Li Shichen was afraid that Gu Qingyuan would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said: "You can use my people as you wish. By the way, are you free tonight? I have reserved a place in the restaurant and want to treat you to dinner."

"Using my money to treat me to dinner, the prince is really generous!" When Gu Qingyuan said this, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. "What do you mean your money?" Li Shichen frowned subconsciously, and looked at Gu Qingyuan with a bit more resentment. He came to apologize with good intentions, but the other party just ridiculed him, and now he actually said this In other words, it was obvious that he didn't take her seriously.

"Your Majesty, you don't know yet. The money spent in the house now comes from the shops in the west of the city. The shops in the west of the city are my dowry! By the way, not only the west of the city, but also the east of the city are my dowry. But before, my mother-in-law Take it away, weren't you there when I went to clean up the shop? Or does the prince not remember?" Gu Qingyuan said quietly.

When Li Shichen heard this, his face turned red.

Of course he remembered this incident. Because of this incident, he was laughed at by his classmates and became angry.

"I remember." Li Shichen stood there, feeling uncomfortable all over. He touched his nose and laughed dryly: "This... this is my own money. Is he famous? There is a monthly report every month. It’s not much, but I still have enough money to treat you to a meal.”

"That's right." Gu Qingyuan nodded: "I underestimate you. Since the Crown Prince is so kind, I will agree."

When Li Shichen heard this, his eyes instantly lit up. He breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Then... we'll see you in the evening."

After saying that, Li Shichen turned and left.

After he left, Sui Han frowned and asked in confusion: "Madam, why did you agree to the prince's request?"

"He won't leave unless he agrees." Gu Qingyuan said, picked up the tea and took a sip: "Didn't you see? I even said so unpleasant things, but he didn't even leave. So, if I No, he’ll be here until I say yes.”

When Sui Han heard this, he couldn't help but be startled, it seemed that this was indeed the case.

"But why did the Crown Prince suddenly think of treating you to dinner?" Sui Han frowned: "Madam, to be honest, I think there is something wrong here."

Gu Qingyuan shrugged. She was not very clear about this matter.

Maybe it really has something to do with what she said to the Duke today, or maybe he has another purpose.

"How about we ask Aunt Rui to find out?" Sui Han thought for a while and suggested.

Gu Qingyuan thought for a moment and felt that it was not impossible, so he asked Sui Han to handle the matter.

At this time, Li Shichen had already gone to Jiaorui's residence.

In fact, after he left Gu Qingyuan's place, he went to Jiaorui's residence.

"Your Majesty, do you want to give something to Madam?" Jiaorui's eyes widened, disbelief written all over her face.

Li Shichen nodded and smiled shyly: "Yes, after all, Madam helped me this time. I always want to do something to thank her. If it weren't for her, my father would definitely beat me to death."

"So that's it." Jiaorui nodded.

"You and Madam have always been on good terms, so you must know what she likes, right?" Li Shichen asked.

When Jiaorui heard this, she immediately shook her head: "How do I know that? Besides, she's Madam. I respect her, so I can't say we're good friends." (End of Chapter)
