The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1050

Chapter 1050: 507 Brothers Recognize Each Other! (Second Update)

Tang Yueshan was so frightened he nearly rolled off the bamboo bed!

Did it have to be this ruthless?

Another injection! And such a thick, long needle at that!

Was he sure it wasn’t meant for pigs?

Tang Yueshan wasn’t afraid of being poisoned into muteness, but he was terrified of injections, a fear that was indescribable.

The corner of Tang Yueshan’s mouth twitched as he said sarcastically, "We’re comrades who fought side by side on the battlefield, and this is how you treat me?"

What about basic trust between people? Fed to the dogs?!

Gu Jiao said without any shame, "This is already showing you extreme mercy, I actually wanted to poison you to death."

Tang Yueshan again: "...!!"

How did this girl figure out he wanted to snitch?

Did he write the words ’I’m going to snitch for credit’ somewhere?

Tang Yueshan glared at Gu Jiao furiously, then something occurred to him, and he wrinkled his brows oddly: "Wait a second, didn’t you already poison me? My life is in your hands, why would you bother making me mute with poison?

Gu Jiao blinked.

Suddenly, Tang Yueshan sat up straight: "You didn’t poison me!"

Gu Jiao said seriously, "I did!"

Tang Yueshan: "You didn’t!"

Gu Jiao: "I did!"

Tang Yueshan: "I don’t believe you!"

Gu Jiao’s eyes spun slyly: "Well, anyway, I’m going to make you mute with poison!"

Tang Yueshan: "..."

The Tang Yueshan who believed ’wealth cannot be used to lure, power cannot subdue’ ultimately succumbed to the threat of a needle, promising not to speak of what he heard today.

However, Gu Jiao wasn’t buying it: "A man’s mouth is a lying ghost!"

Tang Yueshan was confused. Where had she learned all this nonsense?

Angry, Tang Yueshan said, although deception is not scorned in soldiers, that was on the battlefield. He wasn’t as crafty in private; he certainly wasn’t like that shameless Marquis Xuanping!

With a hint of anger, Tang Yueshan spoke earnestly, "I, the grand Grand Marshal of the realm, said I would keep your secrets, and I will keep my word. Why don’t you believe me?"

"I could believe you, but it’s not impossible," Gu Jiao said, stroking her chin and examining Tang Yueshan up and down.

An ominous feeling welled up in Tang Yueshan’s heart: "What are you going to do?"

Gu Jiao crossed her arms, tapped her fingers lightly on her arm, and looked at him askance, "Become my lackey, and I’ll trust you and won’t make you mute."

Tang Yueshan asked in confusion, "What’s a lackey?"

Gu Jiao said, "A minion."

Tang Yueshan couldn’t believe what he heard. What had she said? A minion? Him?

Ha!

He, the grand Grand Marshal of the realm, would become a girl’s minion?

She must be insane, or perhaps she was scared witless by the spy-raising affair at the Marquis Residence.

After all, though she wasn’t born to Mistress Ling, she was still of the Marquis Residence bloodline. With the nest overturned, how could any egg be unbroken? With the Marquis Residence convicted of treason and conspiracy against the nation, where could she find safety?

She’d probably fall out of favor with both the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Without the protection of those two, what kind of life would she have later?

Gu Jiao said seriously, "You choose, either I make you mute with poison, or you become my minion."

The Old Marquis frowned upon seeing the two men crashing through the wall! _{freeweɓnovel.cøm}

Gu Chengfeng’s arms were wrapped in bandages, not his legs, so he bore the pain and stood up from among the wooden boards, looking at the Old Marquis whom he hadn’t seen for several days.

The Old Marquis also looked his way, his eyes revealing surprise and excitement.

Gu Chengfeng was slightly stunned, his grandfather was so excited to see me? Am I really grandpa’s most beloved grandson?!

Overjoyed, Gu Chengfeng cleared the gloom from just learning he might be an illegitimate child and moved tearfully toward his grandfather!

He reached the side of the bed!

With eyes brimming with tears, he looked at his grandfather, "Grandf..."

Before he could finish the word father, he was pushed aside by his grandfather’s arm wrapped in a splint.

The Old Marquis gazed past Gu Chengfeng, filled with excitement, "Little Brother!"

Gu Chengfeng: Li-li-little Brother?

Tang Yueshan, half-buried under the wooden boards and unable to get out, looked behind himself.

Where is this little brother?

Gu Jiao, already wearing her mask, also looked excitedly at the Old Marquis, striding over to sit beside the bed, taking his hand.

Big Brother!

The Old Marquis’s eyes were teary, "Little Brother!"

Gu Jiao: Big Brother!

"Little Brother!"

Big Brother!

The Old Marquis grasped Gu Jiao’s hand, tears streaming down his face, "Little Brother! It really is you! I thought I would never see you again in my lifetime! Being able to see you once more is truly wonderful!"

Finally understanding that the call for "Little Brother" was meant for someone else, Gu Chengfeng and Tang Yueshan sprayed out a mouthful of old blood—
