Oh my god, can you play like this?

Gu Lanzhi flipped through the original owner's memory and indeed had no impression of this man, but where did that feeling of recognition come from? !

The two of them just sat on the tree branch, Li Beichen looked into the distance, and Gu Lanzhi stared at Li Beichen with stars in his eyes.

In fact, it’s not that Li Beichen doesn’t want to look at Gu Lanzhi, he just doesn’t dare to look at Gu Lanzhi!

Ever since Gu Lanzhi took off his mask, Li Beichen's violent heartbeat has not subsided. If he continues to stare at Gu Lanzhi, he is afraid that he will not be able to control himself and do something that he will regret.

"Do I... know you?" Gu Lanzhi spoke first in confusion.

Li Beichen looked at Gu Lanzhi, then restrained himself and looked away with difficulty, "Didn't you ask me what my name was before?"

"Yes!" Gu Lanzhi nodded with a smile.

"My name is Li Beichen." Li Beichen glanced at Gu Lanzhi again, then quickly looked away.

"Li Beichen? Li Beichen? Are you the Ninth Prince?" Gu Lanzhi widened his eyes in surprise.

No wonder! No wonder I think this person knows him. Before the Ninth Prince left Kyoto, he was so popular!

Gu Lanzhi had seen Li Beichen many times when he attended palace banquets, but they were both young at that time. Now that they have grown up and become more mature, there is naturally some difference in their appearance compared to when they were children.

Li Beichen restrained himself from looking at Gu Lanzhi again and nodded.

"Then..." Gu Lanzhi wanted to ask why the Ninth Prince would go in and out of the princes' palaces at night and what he wanted to do.

But Gu Lanzhi suddenly had an idea, and he lowered his voice and whispered to Li Beichen's ear, "Wasn't it the current emperor who passed the throne to the late emperor?"

As soon as Gu Lanzhi finished speaking, Li Beichen slowly turned his head and looked at Gu Lanzhi, his eyes becoming deep.

Seeing the change in Li Beichen's eyes, Gu Lanzhi knew that his guess was correct.

Gu Lanzhi waved his hand indifferently and said, "I didn't say anything, and you didn't hear anything."

"Don't you want to ask me why I went to the prince's mansion?" Li Beichen narrowed his eyes slightly.

Li Beichen admitted that he liked Gu Lanzhi, but in front of the great cause, even if he liked Gu Lanzhi, Li Beichen did not dare to take the risk of betting that Gu Lanzhi would not stand against him.

The plan to regain the throne is not just the effort of Li Beichen alone. Once the matter is exposed, many people will die.

Li Beichen didn't dare to gamble in this situation. This was one of the reasons why Li Beichen didn't want to get close to Gu Lanzhi before his great cause was accomplished.

Gu Lanzhi has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command from the Dongshun Kingdom. If he stands on the emperor's side and turns the knife against himself, Li Beichen is not sure that he can let his men escape unscathed.

Once Gu Lanzhi knew his plan, let alone implementing it, he would probably kill him right away.

After all, the main idea is actually just one, that is, Li Beichen still doesn't trust Gu Lanzhi.

In fact, this is normal. Both of them were attracted by the beauty of the woman. They had never met before and had no friendship at all.

If Li Beichen believed Gu Lanzhi so easily, then Li Beichen would not be worthy of being the Ninth Prince, let alone thinking about seizing the throne!

Gu Lanzhi shook his head gently, retracted his gaze that had been lingering on Li Beichen's face, looked into the distance and said: "I just returned to Beijing, and I haven't established myself yet, how can I have the extra energy to care about others!

I am the Marquis of Dingguo of Dongshun State. If Dongshun State needs me to lead troops to defend the country, then I have no choice but to do it. As for the rest, it is not my business. "

He made his position clear in just a few words. Although Li Beichen did not completely believe Gu Lanzhi's words, he felt a little relieved.

As long as Gu Lanzhi doesn't interfere with his plan, Li Beichen will be sure to get his things back.

Gu Lanzhi was too smart and figured everything out at once. Li Beichen didn't dare to gamble.

Li Beichen looked at Gu Lanzhi suspiciously, "Aren't you afraid of problems?"

"What could go wrong? Isn't the succession of the throne the most normal thing?

When this emperor dies, the next emperor will take over. Does it make any difference to me, the Marquis Dingguo, who becomes the emperor?

I just want to protect my family. As long as my family is not implicated, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor!"

Gu Lanzhi has already expressed his inner thoughts very directly, and is also telling Li Beichen that if you want to fight the emperor, then go ahead and don't disturb my family.

The security of Kyoto and the imperial city are not under Gu Lanzhi's jurisdiction. Gu Lanzhi is in charge of the military.

Even if there was chaos in the imperial city, the soldiers outside the city would not move without the emperor's decree. If something really happened in the imperial city, it could not be blamed on Gu Lanzhi.

Therefore, you princes can make as much trouble as you like in the Imperial City, as long as it does not implicate Gu Lanzhi’s family.

Li Beichen looked at Gu Lanzhi with interest, "You don't like the current emperor, do you?"

This sentence hit the nail on the head, and Gu Lanzhi even wanted to applaud the Ninth Prince.

"Huh...why should I like him?

Our Gu family is not the only one in Dongshun Kingdom that has military generals, but the men of our Gu family died one after another. If I hadn’t been lucky, I would have died on the battlefield as well.

It's only our Gu family that is at risk. This is not the right way to cut leeks, right?

Look at the people left in our Gu family: two widows, a scholar, a young boy and a baby.

I think the emperor has a grudge against our Gu family, otherwise why would he hate our family so much! "

After Gu Lanzhi traveled through time and received the original owner's memories, he has always had this thought.

In addition, the village he saw when he left Kyoto before was so poor even though it was so close to Kyoto, which made Gu Lanzhi have even less favorable impression on the emperor.

But Gu Lanzhi is a minister now. Even if he is dissatisfied with the emperor, he cannot show it. He just has to bear it!

Now Li Beichen wants to dethrone the emperor. Gu Lanzhi may not help, but he certainly won't sincerely protect the emperor. What's more, the emperor is still plotting against him!

Since this emperor is not good, it would be better to change him!

Hehe... Mainly because Li Beichen is good-looking.

Gu Lanzhi admits that he is a face lover, but he is not love-brained.

He doesn't like the current emperor and is not familiar with Li Beichen, so these two people are of equal importance to Gu Lanzhi now.

If the emperor has not made any achievements on the throne, it is not a bad idea to replace him with someone else. But who can be sure that the next emperor will be a bad one?

Gu Lanzhi is a modern man. He does not attach as much importance to the throne as the ancient people did. That is why he can think calmly about changing the emperor.
