After eavesdropping on my thoughts, my whole family changed their fate

Gu Ci felt very disappointed, but this was unavoidable.

"We can't get married in peace until the matter of Zhao Lingzhou is resolved. He wants to raise an army, and we have to prepare to resist his attack. If we prepare a wedding banquet, it may be too late. So we decided to wait until the matter is settled before getting married. By then, everything will be quiet."

Jin Yuanyuan understood. It seemed that it would be better to wait until the incident with Zhao Lingzhou was resolved before getting married.

At the same time, after returning home, Zhao Lingzhou dragged his tired body and prepared to go see Gu Xingruo, but was turned away by her.

"I don't want to see you, don't come in! You took my money to pay me back, if you don't pay me back, I won't forgive you and won't see you!"

Gu Xingruo locked the door and didn't let him in.

Zhao Lingzhou found her incomprehensible. Zuo Nai said that she used her own money to compensate, and Gu Xingruo probably said that because she wanted him to make up for the shortfall. Thinking of this, he was filled with disappointment.

He had been very busy these past few days, and seeing that she was so ignorant, he was too lazy to coax her anymore and turned to look for Zuo Nai.

After he walked away, Gu Xingruo opened the door and saw that he had really left. She became even angrier and slammed the door, smashing everything in the room.

"I told you not to come in, but you really didn't come in. You kept begging me outside the door, waiting for me. Do you think you'd die?"

This time she was really angry and decided not to see him for a while, leaving Zhao Lingzhou to worry.

Zuo Nai was now pinching his shoulders, her voice gentle and charming.

"Don't be angry, Your Highness. Xing Ruo may just be angry for the moment and that's why she doesn't want to see you. She will be fine after she calms down after a while."

Zhao Lingzhou snorted coldly and vented all his anger on Zuo Nai...

Gu Xingruo sat in front of the bronze mirror, looking at her face, which had several bloody streaks. She had seen a doctor and tried many medicines, but there was no improvement.

She was so embarrassed that she couldn't face Zhao Lingzhou. She was extremely anxious.

The next morning, Zhao Lingzhou came out of Zuo Nai's room refreshed.

Zuo Nai got up and went to Gu Xingruo's room to see her.

"How are you? Is the wound on your face better?"

She reached out to lift her veil, but Gu Xingruo slapped her open with a slap, "Don't be so hypocritical, my face is fine and you don't have to worry about it!"

Zuo Nai lowered her eyes, looking very lost, and turned to instruct the maid.

"Let's find some good doctors and make sure Xingruo's face is healed."

When she turned her head, Gu Xingruo saw the marks on her neck.

She felt a little cold in her heart. It was obvious that Zhao Lingzhou had stayed in her room last night.

Gu Xingruo felt very aggrieved. Even though she was in such a state, Zhao Lingzhou was still thinking about finding another woman.

The resentment in his heart grew bigger and bigger, and he didn't want to see Zhao Lingzhou even more.

When Zuo Nai saw her like this, the corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly.

Two months later.

A grand banquet was held to celebrate the emperor's birthday, and princes and ministers presented gifts one after another.

Jin Yuanyuan didn't have any other good things. Her gold, silver and jewelry were given to her by the emperor. The only things she could show off were her elixirs.

The emperor drank too much and got up to change his clothes.

Jin Yuanyuan followed him and tugged at his dragon robe. If it were someone else, they would not even dare to touch the dragon robe, as this would be an act of offending the emperor. But it was different for Jin Yuanyuan.

The emperor was not angry at all. He took her hand and walked with her. He had drunk too much and his steps were a little unsteady.

"Yuanyuan, why did you run out?"

Jin Yuanyuan casually put the porcelain bottle in her pocket into his hand.

"Because I have something to ask you. This is my birthday gift to your majesty. It is a health pill. Take one pill a day after meals."

Then he pulled out two more bottles from his pocket and put them all in his arms.

Before the emperor asked what the medicine was, Jin Yuanyuan's voice rang in his ears.

[After taking my elixir, only three bottles are needed, and I guarantee that Your Majesty can live another ten years, no problem.]

The emperor, who usually kept his emotions secret, looked at her in surprise.

I didn't expect that this medicine could actually prolong life. I don't know how many surprises Yuanyuan has in store for me.

He did not give it to his personal eunuch, but kept it in his arms, treating it as a treasure, fearing that he would lose it.

"Thank you, Yuanyuan. You seem to have grown a lot taller these days. I will order someone to bring the tribute cloth from Jiangnan to make new clothes for you."

The chief eunuch who was accompanying him showed shock.

The emperor was reluctant to use the new brocade tribute from Jiangnan, and only gave a piece of cloth to the empress. The prince did not even get any.

He didn't expect that the reward would be given to the daughter of General Jin. He sighed again in his heart that Miss Jin was extraordinary and he should treat her with more respect in the future.

Jin Yuanyuan didn't know how precious the cloth was and didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just ordinary cloth.

Not long after the emperor went in to change his clothes, Jin Yuanyuan heard something fall in the room. She was about to leave, but suddenly stopped and shouted inside.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?"

There was no response from inside, and she thought to herself that something was wrong.

It was obvious that there were more than just the emperor entering the room. There were more than ten palace maids and eunuchs helping the emperor change his clothes. She shouted so loudly, but no one responded.

Jin Yuanyuan walked to the closed door and smelled a strong smell of blood. She no longer hesitated and pushed the door open.

Zhao Lingzhou was stepping on the dead eunuch on the ground and pulling out the big knife that was stuck in the eunuch's neck.

In addition to Zhao Lingzhou, there were other people wearing armor, and all the eunuchs and palace maids were beheaded.

The emperor collapsed to the ground, as if he had been drugged, and was unable to escape.

Jin Yuanyuan hesitated for only a second and then ran to the emperor.

"Are you okay? Can you stand up?"

It was obvious that it was Zhao Lingzhou who had committed the crime. He was indeed going to take action at the birthday banquet, but no one expected it to happen so soon.

The emperor's body was limp and he didn't even have the strength to raise his hands. He could only murmur, "Run, run!"

Suddenly, Jin Yuanyuan felt a chill on her neck. Zhao Lingzhou's big knife was placed on her neck, and his voice was filled with cold, violent pleasure.

"Run? Father, today, no one can escape! Catch them both!"

The soldiers behind him tied up the two men with ropes and successfully captured the emperor. Zhao Lingzhou walked outside, turned on the flare and fired it into the sky.

Jin Yuanyuan felt that this moment was extremely familiar. In the book, Zhao Lingzhou did this.

First the emperor was captured, and then the smoke bomb was released. However, at that time the emperor did not know that it was Zhao Lingzhou who did it.

He did not appear in front of the emperor, but pretended to be the prince's men. This time something seemed different.

As soon as the fireworks were set off, a large group of soldiers rushed into the hall, captured everyone and controlled their movements.

He Hong frowned and looked at the group of people, then he stood up and asked.

"What are you doing?! This is the Golden Palace! How dare you!"

The leading general was the prince's man, and everyone looked at the prince, suspecting that he was planning a rebellion.

But why is this? He has absolutely no reason.

Now that he had a son and the emperor favored him more and more, he had no reason to rebel, and everyone was puzzled.

The prince looked at the general who used to be in his camp and narrowed his eyes slightly. This man actually defected to Zhao Lingzhou.

He did not refute that the general was not his man, but just watched the show quietly.

The emperor and Jin Yuanyuan were captured and taken to the bedroom. Zhao Lingzhou searched everywhere and finally found the jade seal in the secret compartment under the pillow of the dragon bed.

He held the jade seal excitedly, no longer as gentle and elegant as before, and his indifference to fame and wealth was gone. His eyes were filled with greed and desire for power.

He hurried to the desk, picked up the pen and started writing. At the end, he glanced at Jin Yuanyuan with ill intentions, added a few more strokes, and then stamped it with the jade seal.
