Ms. Doctor Divine Chapter 1035

Chapter 1035: Blame

He lifted the curtains without any more words.

He felt slightly a.s.sured, seeing the Crown Prince inside. He had suspected that the worst had happened. If it had happened… everything would be over.

Zhou Huailing cringed when he saw the sudden move by Junyi, but he let out a sigh of relief after seeing that it was Junyi.

It was time for him to get off the wagon. Zhou Huailing stuck out his head and looked about. When he was sure that he was with his men alone, and that nothing dangerous was within sight, he hesitated a little while before leaving the wagon.

He went into the office very quickly.

He said loudly, “Junyi, just hurry, it is dangerous outside.”

Junyi was startled. He looked about and confirmed that it was just the Crown Prince being cautious, he hurried up to catch up with the Crown Prince.

Back at the office.

Gu Ruxue was there too. She was very surprised that they returned so early.

…

Then she saw the Crown Prince’s pale face. “What is going on?”

“It was so dangerous back there, I almost died!” Zhou Huailing said with a pale look on his face. He was still s.h.i.+vering and what had happened frightened him even now.

At that time…

If not for Prime Minister Chu who had pushed him away, he would not have made it home.

Zhou Huailing was feeling both scared and lucky.

Hearing his words, Gu Ruxue was very frightened too.

She had not wanted the Crown Prince to visit Li Village, but this strategist insisted. Now something bad had really happened. Numerous people died at Li Village so she knew that it wasn’t a safe place to go, but he refused to accept her proposal and insisted that the Crown Prince should take the risk.

Gu Ruxue slapped Junyi’s face. “It was your fault, filthy servant! If not for you the Crown Prince would not have gone through such a dangerous thing!”

With his hands over his face, Junyi showed a look of disbelief.

Junyi was just a strategist, but he was a very talented person since he was little. He had never been wronged or blamed like this, even his master, just told him that he was not as good as his Senior Brother.

Now… this woman actually slapped him!

Junyi was extremely furious!

Gu Ruxue was not aware of this. She was totally focused on Zhou Huailing.

Zhou Huailing also did not care about this slap, because Gu Ruxue was the Crown Prince Consort, and it was normal that she slapped servants. Also, he was a little bit annoyed about Junyi for not saving him back at Li Village. It was Prime Minister Chu who stepped forward. If not for Prime Minister Chu, he would be doomed.

That was why he did not blame Gu Ruxue for the slap either. Instead, he consoled Gu Ruxue. “I am fine, Ruxue.”

“However, we can’t stay in Li County, we have to leave for the capital! It is too dangerous here, I just can’t imagine what else would happen.” Zhou Huailing mumbled.

“Let’s go home now!” Gu Ruxue echoed.

Zhou Huailing nodded. He looked up at Junyi and said, “Junyi, go and arrange our trip back home to the capital!”

Junyi was still flus.h.i.+ng. He was not in the right mood, but he had to tolerate it. So he went to arrange everything.

They left directly and arrived at the capital before dark.

The moment the wagon entered the gate, the King learned about the Crown Prince’s return to the capital.

The King, who was seated at Qianqing Palace, said to De Fu. “Look, he can’t even hold on for one single day!”
