Chapter 1239： I've already helped His Highness to think about it.

As she said that, she turned around and took out the herbal tea and a plate of cakes that had been prepared from behind the counter.

Gu Zixiao frowned.

Is she ready?

"I guess Your Highness will be curious about whether I am the Zhuang Ruoyun you know, and I also think that you will come back to confirm."

"So, I'm here specially to wait for His Highness."

Gu Zixiao listened to the words and silently took a seat opposite her.

The candlelight flickered, illuminating the furnishings in the room between the two of them.

Even Zhuang Ruoyun's face became clear again.

After not seeing her for a few years, she has become more dignified than when they first met.

The emotions in the dark eyes were quiet, just like her own, hiding light and uprightness.

And Zhuang Ruoyun was also looking at the eldest prince secretly.

Gu Zixiao was the same as in her memory, nothing changed.

Deep eyebrows, calm demeanor, and upright awe-inspiring character.

Gu Zixiao was inevitably curious: "Why are you in the country of Xili?"

"Back then, I went to Zhuang Mansion to find you once, but your family shied away, saying that you were ill and inconvenient to see guests."

Since then, he has never seen Zhuang Ruoyun again.

Gu Zixiao doesn't like this girl.

Just thinking of Zhuang Ruoyun occasionally, I can't help but think, is she still being bullied by her parents?

Zhuang Ruoyun is even less like that kind of ordinary scheming woman.

It stands to reason that since she met Taishi Du and the eldest prince by fate, she should use her connections to open up a path for herself, so that the life will not be so sad.

However, Zhuang Ruoyun never found them in front of them.

A few years have passed, and the goodbye is actually in another country.

Zhuang Ruoyun smiled, his eyes were gentle, but he showed fearless freedom.

"Because Zhuang's mansion can't tolerate me, my parents have not treated me very much because of my second sister Zhuang Miaoyin."

"I can't bear it anymore, I took some silver notes left by His Highness at the beginning, and some money from my selling things, and started the rouge business."

"Later, as His Highness saw, my business has grown and I have made a lot of money, so I don't want to go back to that place."

"So I opened the shop in the country of Xili." After speaking, she poured a cup of tea and took the initiative to hand it to Gu Zixiao.

Gu Zixiao sat upright and his brows were calm, he pushed slightly: "Thank you, but no need."

Zhuang Ruoyun didn't force it either.

Gu Zixiao listened to her experience and secretly marveled at her.

In today's world, women don't easily make public appearances. Going to school is already the limit, let alone doing business.

His sister Gu Nuo'er was the only one in Daqi, and now Zhuang Ruoyun has become self-improving because of this.

Gu Zixiao pondered for a moment before saying sincerely, "Since you are doing well now, I am happy for you."

Zhuang Ruoyun smiled, not sticking to this topic, but quickly asked: "Your Highness came to Xili to bring the princess back?"

Gu Zixiao didn't hide it, and nodded: "The royal father has been waiting a little anxiously."

"I guessed it, the emperor loves Princess Yaoguang so much, of course he can't stand to see her being favored by other emperors. As far as I know, the emperor Ling Tianyin of Xili Kingdom likes the little princess very much."

Hearing this, Gu Zixiao frowned slightly.

Is that true?

No wonder his father asked him to set off immediately, and he could not delay for a moment.

He bowed his hands slightly: "Listening to Miss Zhuang, you should know how to connect with my sister. Please let me know, I will be very grateful."

Zhuang Ruoyun's eyes were brightly illuminated by the candlelight, making it even more attractive.

She turned around and picked up an imperial list from the table.

To Gu Zixiao with a smile: "I have already thought about it for His Highness."

On the emperor list, it is written that the emperor wants to recruit chefs who can cook big dishes into the palace.
