Chapter 185 Because I'm Worried About Her
Gou Chunmei, who lived in a remote town, spent five days in a restaurant, but she felt uncomfortable.
Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Zhao Haoxuan's handsome face would always appear in her mind involuntarily and would never be forgotten.
Gou Chunmei knew very well that if she continued to be in the predicament of fleeing, then if the situation continued like this, she would probably never have any contact with Zhao Haoxuan again in this life.
However, when she recalled that Zhao Haoxuan was heading towards the capital, a spark of hope ignited in her heart.
Perhaps the only way to see him again is to return to the capital.
Perhaps the journey to the capital is full of dangers, and you may even face life-threatening situations.
After hesitating and struggling for a while, Gou Chunmei finally decided to give it a try.
If you are lucky enough to survive, then when you become a princess, it will be easy for you to recruit your beloved and make him your consort.
With such beautiful vision and firm determination, Gou Chunmei quickly packed her luggage.
Fortunately, her mother had given her a lot of banknotes before she left, so she bought the most luxurious and comfortable carriage in the small town and also prepared a lot of dry food.
When everything was ready, she set out on the journey back to the capital without hesitation.
Along the way, Gou Chunmei was exhausted and traveled day and night, completely unaware of how much time had passed.
Just as she was concentrating on driving the carriage forward, suddenly a noisy and chaotic sound of horse hooves and shouts came from afar.
Her heart tightened, and she quickly pulled the reins to stop the carriage and looked carefully. She saw that the group of people galloping towards her was actually the group that had chased her before, and the leader was still the ferocious leader.
At this moment, the leader's sharp hawk-like eyes instantly caught sight of her figure.
He squeezed his legs against the horse's belly, and the horse galloped out, appearing in front of her in the blink of an eye.
The leader raised the whip in his hand high and was about to whip him hard.
"Stop!" At this critical moment, an angry shout resounded through the sky.
The sudden shouting startled the leader. He widened his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him with surprise, who should have been trembling.
At this moment, Gou Chunmei changed her previous cowardly appearance and stood there with her head held high and chest puffed out, her eyes firm and sharp, without any fear at all.
The leader's arm, holding the whip, froze in mid-air. He stared at Gou Chunmei in disbelief, as if he saw a complete stranger.
The air around seemed to freeze because of the stalemate at this moment.
After a long while, Gou Chunmei slowly spoke.
His voice was low but full of power: "I will go back with you and I will never run away again!"
After hearing what Gou Chunmei said, the leader showed a look of suspicion on his face, but finally put down the whip.
"Hmph, I don't think you dare to run away again," he said.
Gou Chunmei drove the carriage and followed them back calmly.
She figured it out: simply avoiding the problem wouldn't solve it, and only facing it head-on could there be a chance of a turnaround.
As long as she works hard to become a princess, she may be able to successfully find the benefactor she thinks about day and night and marry him.
The power of love is enough to drive her to overcome all difficulties and obstacles.
As for Xinyao, the mysterious woman her benefactor had been talking about, she firmly believed that as long as she transformed herself into a noble princess, her benefactor would definitely lock his eyes on her.
Once you have supreme status and power, who can resist such charm?
Even if we take a step back and say that the benefactor still misses Xinyao at that time, that would be fine.
At worst, I can use some means to make that woman named Xinyao disappear from this world completely!
Anyway, as long as I can achieve my wish and get the favor of my loved one, nothing else matters.
At this moment, Zhao Haoxuan had already arrived in the capital. He did not choose to go directly to the palace to meet the emperor.
Instead, he rented a spacious and comfortable guest room in the restaurant where Wang Xinyao had lived before.
Late at night, when everyone was asleep, a figure quietly came to the outside of the window. Two faint bird calls were heard, and Zhao Haoxuan opened the window door.
With a whoosh sound, a figure flashed into the room like a ghost in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Zhao Haoxuan hurried forward and closed the open window tightly.
When he turned around, he saw an old man in his sixties standing in front of him.
The old man was wearing a simple gray robe, and his face was covered with wrinkles left by time.
However, his eyes were still bright, revealing the wisdom and calmness that came from having experienced many vicissitudes of life.
As soon as the old man saw Zhao Haoxuan, he immediately bowed respectfully to him and said in a low voice, "Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Hearing the call, Zhao Haoxuan's body trembled violently and his eyes instantly became moist.
He could no longer suppress the surging emotions in his heart, and with a slightly choked voice, he excitedly called out the name that haunted him: "Grandpa!"
Then, he knelt on his knees, tears streaming down his face: "It's all Xuan'er's fault. It's really unfilial of you to come here at such an old age to look for Xuan'er!"
The person in front of him was none other than the father-in-law of the country, Yang Ruize. At this moment, his eyes were also blurred by tears, and his weather-beaten face showed endless love and heartache!
"Xuan'er, don't blame yourself. As long as I can see you safe and sound, it doesn't matter if grandpa has to work harder. Get up quickly!" As he said that, he reached out and gently helped Zhao Haoxuan, who was kneeling on the ground.
Zhao Haoxuan slowly stood up and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves.
Then he quickly pulled Yang Ruize to a chair nearby and asked him to sit down: "Grandpa, you must have been traveling all the way here, please take a seat!"
Yang Ruize sat down as he was told. After calming down a bit, he looked at Zhao Haoxuan with a serious look and asked, "Xuan'er, the journey back to Beijing is extremely difficult and dangerous. You knew this, so why did you insist on coming back?"
Zhao Haoxuan took a deep breath, gathered himself, and replied, "Grandfather, to be honest, I returned to the capital this time because I was worried about my mother who was in the cold palace, and also because I was worried about her..."
At this point, Zhao Haoxuan's eyes dimmed unconsciously.
Yang Ruize nodded slightly, indicating that he understood Zhao Haoxuan's feelings.
Then he comforted her, "Xuan'er, don't worry too much. Although your mother has been temporarily banished to the cold palace, her life is not in danger. You don't need to worry too much about it."
Then, Yang Ruize seemed to come to his senses suddenly, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "She? Who is she?"
