The prince's wife is even more cruel, and the weak prince is afraid of his wife.

Sure enough, Jiang Yubai didn't lie to me. Gu Fangzheng is indeed here. Hahaha, it's right to go back to Beijing.

Seeing that his face looked even worse, Fang Zheng turned around and walked upstairs, asking the waiter to see him off.

"No, Gu Fangzheng, I'm here to discuss business with you."

Zhao Shijie wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the waiter and could only shout downstairs.

Seeing that Gu Fangzheng ignored him, he took the opportunity to divert the waiter's attention, and with a whoosh, Zhao Shijie ran upstairs.

"Hey, Pavilion Master Zhao, how can you do this?" The waiter chased after him.

People around him who didn't know the situation thought he was dreaming and that not everyone could do business with Manager Gu.

At this time, someone recognized Zhao Shijie as the owner of Xuanyu Pavilion Auction House, and everyone suspected that it might be a hypothesis.

"How is that possible? I had the honor of meeting him before. He is the owner of Xuanyu Pavilion." said the middle-aged man with a big belly.

"Are they going to cooperate?" said a thin man.

"Then won't the food, drink and cloth of the Li Kingdom in the future all be in their hands?" the chubby and blessed man also said.

However, the common people nearby thought that it would be best if food, drink and cloth were all in the hands of the Pavilion Master of the Star Pavilion.

After all, the price is cheap and ordinary people like us can afford it.

Secondly, even the one in the palace ignored the refugees, but Pavilion Master Gu sent them food and clothes and invited doctors to treat them, which saved many innocent lives.

We should support such kind people more.

"You are courting death! How dare you talk nonsense about royal affairs?" His companion hit him on the head.

An old man next to him said, "This is the truth. Didn't you see the papers that suddenly fell today? They are full of evidence of the princess' crimes."

"Yes, yes." Everyone echoed this matter and discussed how His Majesty would punish the eldest princess, or maybe not punish her at all.

At this time, the elegant man who had been sitting in the corner was drinking quietly and listening to the discussions around him, finding it very interesting.

If I'm not mistaken, the two people who just came out should be Prince Jiang.

But who could that woman be? I sensed a similar aura.

"Qian Qian, the elegant man who has been looking at you is the third prince of the Lan Kingdom. He was sent to the Li Kingdom as a hostage." Xiao Lan said.

"Not bad, you have recovered a lot." Gu Qianyue praised.

"Of course." Xiao Lan's tone was full of joy, and then he said carefully: "How about Qianqian, why don't you come and interact with this prince occasionally?"

Gu Qianyue just chuckled twice and locked Xiao Lan in a small dark room.

Xiao Lan was helplessly shouting in the small dark room, “No!!!”

Jiang Yubai hadn't said a word since he got on the carriage and had been quietly making tea.

"You just took advantage of me again." Gu Qianyue picked up the tea he handed over and took a sip. The tea was quite good. Gu Qianyue even squinted her eyes after drinking it.

Seeing that she liked it, Jiang Yubai poured another glass.

"He is a hostage sent by the Blue Country, and I want to cooperate with him. If a war breaks out, the people of the Li Country will not be able to hold on. The border has been short of food and supplies for a long time, and the supplies from the court have not been delivered to the people and soldiers on the border."

Jiang Yubai felt that since it was a collaboration, he had to be honest, so he stated his purpose straight away.

"How do you think His Majesty will punish the eldest princess?" Gu Qianyue avoided his topic.

Jiang Yubai knew that she didn't want to get involved, so he followed her words and said, "I guess he was thrown into the fiefdom for a while, and when the storm died down, the queen would find an excuse to bring him back."

Gu Qianyue came over for a while and asked, "What would happen if she died?"

"No!" Jiang Yubai didn't expect Gu Qianyue to be so decisive about killing people. Didn't she think that there would be trouble if the higher-ups found out? Or did she not care at all?

Gu Qianyue saw how nervous he was and recalled what she heard in the yard that day. Could it be that Jiang Yubai also liked the eldest princess?

He asked coldly: "You want to save her?"

Jiang Yubai didn't know why she suddenly became so cold, so he said, "It's not about saving her, but you will be in trouble. There's no need to sacrifice yourself for such a person. We can let her die in a fair way."

"A fair way?" Gu Qianyue didn't understand, but felt it was very troublesome, and then asked: "Is it possible that the family of the deceased may not get justice until they die. Instead, they will be charged with a new crime."

Jiang Yubai hesitated. He couldn't look directly into Gu Qianyue's direct gaze, so he lowered his head to look at the tea in his hand. However, the carriage was moving so steadily that the cup in his hand didn't even make a ripple and didn't move at all.

"Will that Majesty really execute his own daughter for an innocent person? Just because of an uncertain cause of the disease and he was afraid of being infected, he burned hundreds of lives in a village. Doesn't he deserve to die more?" Gu Qianyue said with an evil smile on her lips.

When Liu Yue heard Gu Qianyue say that hundreds of people were burned to death, he clenched his fists tightly and his eyes turned red unconsciously.

If the master had not saved them, there would probably be no Liu Yue in this world.

"Prince, we have arrived at Prince Ming's palace." Mu Feng's voice appeared in time, breaking this strange situation.

Jiang Yubai got off the carriage and offered to help her but was rejected by Gu Qianyue.

"Lead the way." Gu Qianyue put her hands behind her back and gestured with her chin for him to go ahead.

Jiang Yubai shook his head helplessly and walked ahead.

"Madam, the prince has brought back a woman." The nanny came to pass on the message, asking the prince to accompany Prince Ming for dinner. Unexpectedly, she saw this scene and saw Gu Qianyue instructing the prince, so she hurried back to tell Madam.

"A girl?" Zhang and Prince Ming looked at each other and said at the same time, "Could it be Miss Gu San?"

But didn’t Miss Gu San just return to Beijing less than three days ago?

"Mu Nian, bring me my cloak, let's go take a look." King Ming said with a hearty laugh.

When they arrived at Yulin Garden, Jiang Yubai ordered Mu Feng to get the sword, and then invited Gu Qianyue to sit down at the stone table in the pavilion.

Liu Yue looked around and found that there were many people in the dark. It seemed that Prince Ming’s Palace was not simple either.

Not long after, Mu Feng took out the sword and presented it with both hands.

Jiang Yubai just stood there quietly watching Gu Qianyue.

Gu Qianyue stepped forward and drew out the sword. The sword was like a white snake spitting out its tongue, hissing and breaking the wind. It was also like a swimming dragon, moving around, sometimes as light as a swallow, and then pointing the sword up, as fast as lightning, as Gu Qianyue's set of swordsmanship ended, the fallen leaves scattered in an instant.

At this time, the secret guards all understood Mu Feng’s warning at noon.

The pressure from Miss Gu just now almost made me think I was going to die.

Gu Qianyue took the sword in her hand and examined it for a while and said, "It is indeed a good sword. Do you really want to give it to me?"

Jiang Yubai knew that she really liked him. Normally, she was very distant, as if she was wandering on the edge of this world, but at this moment, her eyes were shining, as if she was alive.

"A good sword can only exert its true power when it is in the hands of someone who understands it, showing that you understand it well." Jiang Yubai said.

Gu Qianyue raised her eyebrows, agreeing very much with what he said, as if praising him for his vision.

"You propose a condition." Gu Qianyue said again.

"I don't have anything I want you to help with for the time being." Jiang Yubai said with a smile.

Gu Qianyue looked at him with doubtful eyes, her eyes clearly showing accusation, how is it possible, you clearly have it!

Jiang Yubai knew that Gu Qianyue wanted to distance herself from him, so he just didn't do what she wanted. He then said, "I can do the rest myself, so I won't bother you, Xiao Yueyue. How about I just owe you the money first and then find you when I've made up my mind, okay?"

"Qianqian, isn't this great? Then we won't have to find excuses to charge." Xiao Lan said.

"Okay! I'll owe it to you first." Gu Qianyue agreed.

Then he turned around and looked in a certain direction, said something and left, and Liu Yue followed closely behind.

Jiang Yubai walked towards the direction Gu Qianyue had just looked at, and said helplessly, "Grandfather, mother."

Zhang smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm just curious about what Miss Gu looks like."

"This girl has good vision, and her swordsmanship should be pretty good." Grandfather said with a smile like an old naughty boy.

The next day, as expected, the emperor ordered the eldest princess to be exiled to her fiefdom, and also offered money to silence the victim's family.

Although the common people were dissatisfied and some victims just wanted justice, their entire families were wiped out overnight, so no one dared to speak out.

The Prime Minister sat on the pavilion in the mansion, looking up at the sky where thunder was roaring, feeling sad and emotional. How long can the Li Kingdom last?
