Oh my god, can you play like this?

Gu Lanzhi looked at the two hands stretched out in front of him, then raised his head to look at the two people in front of him, then with an expressionless face he lifted the corner of his clothes with one hand, supported the wound on his left shoulder with the other hand, and stood up calmly, very calmly.

There was a hint of embarrassment on the faces of both men.

Gu Lanzhi stood up straight and nodded politely and distantly to the two men, saying, "Thank you both for your kindness."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the hall.

Deputy General Zhang and the left and right guards had been watching the situation on Gu Lanzhi's side, and naturally saw that the two men wanted to help Gu Lanzhi but were rejected.

In fact, except for Deputy General Zhang and the left and right guards, all the court officials walked very slowly after the court session today, and they all paid close attention to the situation on Gu Lanzhi's side.

Watching two men fighting for Gu Lanzhi's favor, this kind of drama would be interesting to everyone.

Zhang Fujian and the other three saw Gu Lanzhi coming over, and they all followed Gu Lanzhi silently, holding back their laughter.

The Fifth Prince and Di Meng looked at Gu Lanzhi's back, both disappointed, especially the Fifth Prince.

He is Gu Lanzhi's official fiancé, and Gu Lanzhi's attitude towards him is the same as that towards Di Meng. How could this not make the Fifth Prince uncomfortable!

But before the Fifth Prince could react, Di Meng sneered, "It seems that the Fifth Prince and Lan Zhi only have such an engagement! Hehe..."

The Fifth Prince was already feeling unhappy, and when Di Meng mocked him, he immediately became angry, but his face did not show any calmness. He just looked at Di Meng with cold eyes.

"Lanzhi just returned to Kyoto. Father sympathized with Lanzhi's need to recuperate, and this prince did not want to disturb Lanzhi at this time, so he became a little estranged from Lanzhi.

But no matter what Lanzhi and I are like now, she is my future wife, and this will not change."

Di Meng's sight followed Gu Lanzhi's back, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Fifth Prince, don't be too sure, don't you have a saying in Dongshun that success depends on human effort?

Since I have come to Dongshun Country, and I came for Lanzhi, everything is still uncertain."

At this point, Di Meng stopped looking at Gu Lanzhi's back and looked at the Fifth Prince, "Fifth Prince, there is still a long time to go, we are not in a hurry."

After saying that, he bowed very politely to the Fifth Prince and strode after Gu Lanzhi. The other four people who came with Di Meng followed behind Di Meng.

The fifth prince also wanted to follow, but the eunuch beside the emperor stopped him.

"Your Highness the Fifth Prince, His Majesty asked you to go to the Imperial Study."

The Fifth Prince glanced in Gu Lanzhi's direction again, then followed the eunuch to the Emperor's study.

The emperor was reading a memorial. When the fifth prince came in, he bowed respectfully to the emperor and said, "Father."

The emperor didn't even raise his head, and said in a cold voice: "What's going on between you and that Gu Shurui?"

The fifth prince's heart trembled. When Di Meng spoke openly about Gu Shurui in the hall, the fifth prince already knew that the emperor would ask him about it. But when the moment really came, the fifth prince still felt guilty.

"I only contacted Gu Shurui because Lord Gu was not in Kyoto at that time, and I wanted to take care of the people in the Gu Mansion on his behalf."

Gu Lanzhi has now been conferred the title of marquis, so the way he is addressed will naturally change.

After hearing the fifth prince's explanation, the emperor raised his head from the memorial and smiled coldly, "Take care of him on behalf of Marquis Gu?

I have known about the rumors about you and Gu Shurui for a long time. I originally thought that you would cut off contact with Gu Shurui after Lord Gu came back.

I really didn't expect you to be so shameless. You didn't even restrain yourself when Marquis Gu came back. Don't you want to marry Marquis Gu but that Gu Shurui?"

The Fifth Prince raised his head in surprise and quickly explained, "No, no, no, Father, it's not like that..."

"No? Then why are you still with Gu Shurui every day?" The emperor directly interrupted the fifth prince's explanation.

The fifth prince calmed down, thought for a moment and said, "Originally, I had stopped contacting Gu Shurui before Marquis Gu returned to the capital, but after Marquis Gu returned to the capital, he sent people to pass on the message many times, asking me to meet with Gu Shurui.

I thought I had to give Lord Gu this face, so I went to meet Gu Shurui.

Yesterday, my son and Gu Shurui came out of an elegant gathering and happened to run into Marquis Gu. Marquis Gu did not show any dissatisfaction with my son and Gu Shurui being together.

Your son...your son..."

"Then have you ever thought about why Lord Gu not only did not stop you from meeting Gu Shurui, but instead wanted you to be together?"

The fifth prince swallowed his saliva. He was afraid of his father.

The royal family has weak family ties, and the emperor is not close to his own sons. These princes are trying their best to show their faces in front of the emperor and to win a good impression in front of him.

But they all treated the emperor as their boss. Who dared to really treat the emperor as their father?

Now that the emperor was speaking to him so seriously, the Fifth Prince instinctively felt guilty and afraid.

"I have thought about it. I think it might be that Marquis Gu wants to bring Gu Shurui to the Fifth Prince's Palace!"

"Haha...hahahahahahahahahaha...hahahahahaha..." The emperor's loud laughter echoed throughout the imperial study.

"I didn't even know I had such a stupid child like you! Hahahaha...this is ridiculous..."

The fifth prince lowered his head and did not dare to look the emperor in the eye. The emperor's words were like a knife that stabbed directly into the fifth prince's heart.

The fifth prince knew that his brain was not as good as that of his other brothers, so he recruited so many counselors to give him advice.

But the emperor directly said that he was stupid, and the fifth prince felt really hurt.

But didn't the counselors in his palace agree with his ideas? Why did the emperor still think he was stupid?

What the Fifth Prince didn't know was that the counselors in his mansion would give him good advice on the court's stance, but when it came to issues concerning the Fifth Prince's personal feelings, they all chose to agree.

Regardless of whether the Fifth Prince's future wife is Gu Lanzhi or Gu Shurui, if these two brothers knew that they, the advisers, had said something bad before the marriage, the pillow talk alone would be enough to get these advisers without any background in trouble.

Faced with the future and the truth, all these advisers chose to agree with the fifth prince's ideas.

"He used to be a general, and now he is a marquis. Will he bring his brother into your prince's palace?

You are just a prince, not an emperor, and it is not certain whether you can become one in the future. What virtue do you have to allow the marquis to marry you along with his younger brother?

Besides, Gu Shurui is also the legitimate son, right? If I remember correctly, Gu Shurui is the legitimate son of the third branch of the Gu family, and the only child of the third branch, right?

With such status, would Marquis Gu let him be your concubine? Or a concubine? You are dreaming." The emperor glared at his silly son with disdain.
