The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1094

Chapter 1094: 528 Large-scale Fall from Horse (2 updates)

"You even contracted lung disease from the cold, coughed up blood, and fell into a coma..."

The Emperor said, his heart aching, but as he spoke, he suddenly felt a chill at the back of his head, and a terrifying aura was emanating from behind him.

As the Son of Heaven, the Emperor’s aura was so powerful that ordinary people could not hope to match it. The fact that it made him shiver indicated just how cold the other person’s aura was.

Gu Jiao also felt it; she turned her head and saw Xiao Hen, who had unknowingly arrived in the backyard, staring at her intensely.

He didn’t speak, but his eyes clearly said everything.

Being ruthlessly pursued, nearly dying under the Prince Consort’s arrow, the epidemic, almost freezing into an ice sculpture, and now with lung disease, coughing up blood, unconscious!

Two flames of rage flickered in the depths of Xiao Hen’s eyes, but the aura around him was icy to the extreme.

Gu Jiao heard a soft voice in her ear saying goodbye. She decided to make a final struggle: "I didn’t!"

The Emperor was completely unaware that he had caused Gu Jiao’s fall. He patted Gu Jiao’s small shoulder and said, "Alright, alright, stop denying it. I’ve read the military reports from the border pass, I understand you’re not one to seek attention. Rest assured, I won’t speak of it to anyone else."

Gu Jiao clenched her fists tighter. You’ve already told the very person you shouldn’t have!

Xiao Hen narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Heh, little liar!

And just then, the Emperor finally noticed Xiao Hen in the courtyard.

Xiao Hen, leaning on his cane, walked toward Gu Jiao with an icy expression.

He had come to confront Gu Jiao and seek justice.

The Emperor’s gaze fell on his limping leg and cane, and he asked curiously, "Eh? Didn’t Yu Yaya say that your leg had healed a long time ago? Why are you still using that?"

Yu Yaya from the Firewood Room covered her mouth with her hand.

She didn’t mean it!

She was speaking to the Empress Dowager!

It was His Majesty who overheard, not her fault!

The unexpected exposure caused Xiao Hen to stumble in his step, nearly falling over!

Now it was Gu Jiao’s turn to narrow her eyes and size up Xiao Hen with a dangerous look.

Hehe, and you called me a little liar. It seems we’re all in the same boat!

...

Now, Gu Jiao seriously suspected that not only had his leg healed at that time, but his hand was also healed!

He was pretending!

Gu Jiao crossed her arms and looked at Xiao Hen, her little eyes slightly fierce.

Xiao Hen indeed had not expected to continuously collapse, revealing not only his fake limp but also the pretense of being disabled in the hand.

Now, it was unclear who was confronting whom.

"What’s wrong?" The Yao Family saw the expressions of the three in the main house and sensed something was off.

Neither Gu Jiao nor Xiao Hen spoke.

Yu Yaya pointed at Gu Jiao and whispered to the Yao Family, "The young miss became seriously ill at the border pass and almost froze to death, but she came back and lied that nothing happened."

The Yao Family’s face changed.

Yu Yaya then pointed at Xiao Hen: "And the son-in-law’s leg, it actually healed a long time ago, yet he kept lying about still being crippled."

The Yao Family: "...!!"

The Yao Family took a deep breath, gripping her handkerchief tightly: "It’s the Lunar New Year, no anger, no anger..." She forced a smile, "Today is Ahen’s and Jingkong’s birthday, everyone is waiting for you in the main house."
