Chapter 154: Carriage Sickness (9)

After Gu Chang finished lunch, he prepared to take a carriage to the Sunflower Book Club. When Zephiel heard that Gu Chang was going there, he said that he also wanted to protect Gu Chang's safety and he had to go too.

Andrew had to stay behind to pack up his things. Andrew had originally arranged for another driver, but Zephir insisted that he drive the carriage. So Zephir became the driver.

Facing Andrew's doubt, Zephir vowed that he could send Gu Chang safely to Sunflower Book Club.

He was an expert horse trainer, so simple tasks like driving a carriage were the easiest for him.

When Gu Chang got into the carriage and caught a glimpse of Zephir's eager expression, he felt vaguely uneasy.

Sure enough, when the carriage stopped at the Sunflower Bookstore, Gu Chang got off holding Zephiel's arm.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Is your stomach uncomfortable because you ate too much?" Zefei asked worriedly.

Gu Chang took a deep breath. He hadn't felt carsick for a long time.

"Zefir, have you ever driven a carriage before?" Gu Chang covered his chest and looked up at Zephir.

Zefeier's eyes were wandering, not daring to meet Gu Chang's gaze. He smiled awkwardly, "Your Highness, just tell me whether I have safely brought you here."

Gu Chang: ...

"And the person who was watching me can't find us anymore." Zephiel deliberately drove the carriage toward the busy streets, and after a few turns, he threw off the people following behind. So in a sense, Gu Chang arrived at the Sunflower Book Club safely.

Gu Chang grabbed Zephir's arm. His face was pale, and he said weakly, "Help me in." He had been riding in a carriage for so long, but this was the first time he had experienced the feeling of speeding. Anyway, he would not ride in Zephir's carriage when he returned to the palace.

Slaley was not surprised by Gu Chang's arrival. He had prepared the manuscript long ago and was waiting for Gu Chang to come and check it.

The three of them went to the second floor and sat down.

After Zephir came up and looked around, he still felt that the environment in Slaley's house could not have windows open. Otherwise, if the wind blew, his manuscripts on the floor would definitely be blown away.

Gu Chang sat on the sofa, looking at the manuscript carefully.

While Gu Chang was reading the manuscript, Slaley pulled Zephir to the window and asked, "You are the captain of the second squadron of the Royal Knights, Zephir Green, right?"

"It's me, what's wrong?" Zephir curled his lips and smiled. He touched his chin and felt that he was still somewhat famous.

"I want to ask you a few questions, can I?" Slaley's eyes lit up, he rubbed his hands, and then smiled at Zephir.

Zephir nodded, "Okay, what do you want to ask?"

Then Slaley took out a small notebook and a pencil from his pocket, opened the notebook, and asked Zephyr, "What do you want in your other half?"

Zephir touched his nose in embarrassment. Why did this man ask him this question right away?

"Isn't this a bookstore? Why are you doing this kind of work?"

"Don't mind me, I'm asking you this out of personal curiosity. If possible, I would like to write an article for you." Slaley said, still feeling that it would be better to state the purpose.

He felt that Zephir wasn't involved in any gossip at the moment, and if he wrote an article about Zephir's mate selection criteria, it might sell well. After all, Zephir was a Knight Commander, and such an identity would surely win the hearts of many noble ladies.

Zephir thought for a moment before saying, "A little over sixty feet tall, with a cheerful personality. I don't have any particular requirements for appearance, that's all." Zephir couldn't think of anything else. He had never considered marriage. Since Michael wasn't married yet, he wasn't in a rush.

Anyway, my family is urging me to get married, and Michael is there to support me.

"Amazing, Knight Commander Zephir hates short girls. He just wants to find an interesting girl. This seems like a good title." Slaley said what he was thinking.

Zephyr: ...?

Gu Chang couldn't help but chuckle when he heard the conversation between the two. Slaley was quite talented in this area.

"Mr. Slaley, I've finished reading the manuscript. You can publish it now." Gu Chang placed the bound manuscript on the table, then stood up and said to Zephir, "Zephir, let's go back to the palace."

Before leaving, Zephyr warned Slaley in a serious tone, "Listen, Mr. Slaley, I don't want you to write this conversation in your book."

"Of course, Mr. Zephir. This is just a joke. Don't worry, I will never write it in the book." Facing Zephir's warning, Shi Lai smiled somewhat awkwardly.

When Gu Chang and Zephir returned to the palace, they happened to run into the angry Saminos and his brothers.

Saminos's face was grim. He had already searched the city several times with his men, but couldn't find Prince Rotus. Even if Prince Rotus was dead, he should be able to find his body.

Furthermore, the ministers had been pressuring Saminos since this morning. If Prince Lotos couldn't be found, Freya would be the next to take the throne.

This was not the outcome Saminos had hoped to see. Rotus had previously promised him that he would marry both Freya and Claire. His father had also warned him that if Freya ascended to power, the Lund family would face her wrath.

But as luck would have it, Saminos saw Gu Chang and Zephir. He was worried that he had no excuse to vent the anger that was pent up in his heart.

"Zephir, what did you and Prince Helain do when you went out?" There were bloodshot eyes in Saminos's eyes, and there was a little stubble on his chin.

Saminos and several others surrounded Zephir and Gu Chang, then questioned Zephir in a harsh tone, "You deliberately left my people behind. Did you go with His Highness Helain to deal with Prince Rotus's body?"

"Saminos, you have to provide evidence when you speak. I haven't settled the score with you yet for sending people to follow me. Why are you slandering me first?" Zephir frowned slightly, his hand already on the sword at his waist.

"I am the Grand Master of the Royal Knights, and I have the obligation to eliminate anyone who would harm Prince Rotus. Now that Prince Rotus is missing, the person most likely to have done this is His Highness Helain." Saminos turned his gaze to Gu Chang. His eyes were unkind and filled with malice.

And Saminos's hand was already on the hilt of his sword.

Gu Chang felt that what Saminos said was ridiculous. Saminos came to cause trouble for them on purpose, and he didn't care whether there was evidence or not. Gu Chang guessed that he just wanted to find someone to take the blame.

"Saminos, do you just want to find someone to be the murderer? Who gave you the confidence to do this? Was it Lotus? Or your father Gemino?" Gu Chang asked coldly.

Even though Saminos was a member of the Knights Templar, he did not have the courage to attack a prince openly.

"Saminos, are you planning to lynch me in the palace? Where are you going to put me?" Freya's voice suddenly rang out from the side. She was wearing silver-white soft armor, her hair tied in a high ponytail, and her eyes were cold and stern.

Several ministers followed behind Freya, and they looked at Saminos's actions with disapproval.

"I think Princess Freya has misunderstood. I'm just asking if His Highness Helain has ever done anything like this." Saminos put on a smile. He knew he couldn't stand against Freya right now, at least not until he found Rotus.

"Are you asking me with a knife on my neck?" Gu Chang did not miss Saminos's move to draw his sword. He said with a sneer.

Saminos glared at Gu Chang fiercely.

Freya and several other ministers saw Saminos glaring like this.

The ministers were somewhat surprised and began to question, "Saminos, as the Grand Master of the Royal Knights, how could you be so disrespectful to Prince Helain?"

"Have you forgotten the principles you must uphold as a knight?"

"Where has your composure gone? You're insulting the Knight Commander by doing this."

The series of questions made Saminos feel like his head was about to explode.

He was pulled out of bed by his father this morning. Before he could wake up from the gentle embrace, he was ordered by Geminino to find the missing Lotus.

He could only eat two bites of bread and then go out to find Lotus.

But he and his men turned the royal city upside down, but still didn't see any trace of Lotus.

He was on the verge of exploding, and now he had to endure the accusations of these old guys. When had Saminos ever been so cowardly? Saminos was always flattered wherever he went.

She was just a princess, yet she still dreamed of sitting on the throne. He would never let Freya get her wish.
