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

Gu Li's pupils shrank in fright, she held her breath, and stared blankly at Gu Qianyue.

Seeing her standing there in a daze, Gu Qianyue shook her head and went back to her room thinking it was boring, and asked Durian to prepare breakfast.

Gu Li collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud, his hands and feet were so weak that he couldn't muster any strength.

Then he kept taking deep breaths, as if he wanted to confirm whether he was still alive.

Just now she really felt that she almost died.

She knew that Gu Qianyue would definitely do what she said.

"Miss Gu, what's wrong with you?" Liu Yue asked with concern.

Gu Li laughed awkwardly a few times, then said that she was fine. She waved for her personal maid to come over and help her stagger away.

Gu Qianyue returned to her room and started to wash up. Although she had already washed in the portable space, she still needed to pretend in the real world to avoid being discovered the secret of the portable space.

After all, possessing rare treasures can easily lead to fatal disasters.

"Qianqian, did you really want to kill Gu Li just now?" Xiao Lan asked doubtfully. It felt that it was becoming increasingly unable to understand Qianqian.

If it was someone Qian Qian decided to kill in the past, he would never wait until three o'clock in the morning, but this time he actually let her go.

"Didn't you say that people should be kind? Only then will you have merits, and with merits you will naturally have energy." Gu Qianyue said perfunctorily.

Xiao Lan just curled her lips, obviously not believing what Qian Qian said.

"Your Majesty." Jiang Yubai arrived at the imperial kitchen and bowed.

The emperor came over for a long time before he raised his head from the pile of memorials and asked, "Yubai, how is your health these days?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. My health is still the same. I'm used to it. Grandfather no longer has any hope for me." Jiang Yubai said self-deprecatingly.

The emperor had been observing Jiang Yubai, and didn't know whether he believed what he said, but no one cared as it was just a mutual test.

The emperor then asked Eunuch Li to give a memorial to Jiang Yubai.

"Your Majesty, what is this?" Jiang Yubai asked, pretending not to understand.

"This is the hardship that the people of Qingfeng Town are enduring. All the ministers have recommended you. After all, you are almost at the age to inherit the title and they want you to get some training. Do you have any ideas?" The emperor explained the situation.

Jiang Yubai's face looked a little ugly, and at the same time he was very conflicted: "Your Majesty, your subject...your subject..." He trembled and spoke for a long time but couldn't say anything.

The emperor seemed to see his embarrassment, so he said in an open-minded manner: "Yubai, just say whatever you want to say. After all, your father and I are old friends, and I will help if I can."

Jiang Yubai seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Your Majesty, I don't want to go. I haven't done any of these things. What if I die there? My mother will only have me as her son."

The emperor was very happy with his honesty, but at the same time he felt that Jiang Yubai was still the same idiot as always, telling everything to others.

The Ming Palace finally came to an end.

"But this is recommended by the ministers. If you don't go, no one else will go. I will naturally satisfy you with whatever you want, but you can't be willful this time." The emperor spoke with the pressure of an emperor.

"But..." Jiang Yubai still wanted to make trouble and didn't want to go.

The emperor hummed solemnly and stared at him seriously.

Jiang Yubai shrank back in fear, then said, "Go ahead, but I have a request."

Seeing that he was obedient, the emperor naturally agreed to his request.

As soon as my grandfather returned to the mansion, Butler Lin came to report what happened in the mansion.

"Hmph! It seems her son is living too comfortably." The old man handed the official hat in his hand to Steward Lin and walked into the study.

"You should also inform Min'er and Yunshen about this matter. As for how to deal with it, it is their business." The old man said.

After a while, when he didn't hear the sound of Butler Lin leaving, the old man looked at Butler Lin from the bookshelf.

I saw Steward Lin with a hesitant look on his face, and I wonder what he was thinking about?

The old man said, "Old Lin, just say what you want to say. It's not like you to hesitate."

In the end, Butler Lin told the second young lady what the third young lady had said.

Although Gu Qianyue spoke very softly, Butler Lin had excellent hearing and knew everything that happened in the mansion.

Gu Qianyue naturally knew about this through Xiao Lan's surveillance, so she said this not only to Gu Li, but also to Gu's family.

"Old Lin, say this to me." The old man chuckled. This girl is indeed not simple.

Steward Lin was confused. What did it mean to tell the general?

The old man just smiled mysteriously and didn't explain. He just asked him to tell the father and son everything exactly as it was.

When Steward Lin turned to leave, the old master said again: "Old Lin, withdraw your people. Don't protect that girl in the dark. Go out in the open instead."

It was almost afternoon, the sun was at its hottest, and Jiang Yubai was sweating from walking.

Because without the emperor's special order, one cannot enter the palace by carriage or sedan chair, and one can only rely on walking.

Jiang Yubai still had to continue to look weak and pant every three steps as he walked out of the palace, wasting even more time on the road.

"Master, they are too much. They don't even arrange a sedan chair for you." Mu Huo complained loudly.

Eunuch Li pretended to be deaf and dumb and then left.

Mu Huo's complaints were naturally instigated by Jiang Yubai, just to confuse everyone and let them know that this prince is a brainless person.

Jiang Yubai saw that his father-in-law had already left and said, "Let's go back home."

Not long after, the Gu Mansion received an imperial edict, which ordered Gu Qianyue to accompany Prince Jiang to Qingfeng Town to quell the plague.

Interesting! Since I can go there openly, it’s naturally good, Gu Qianyue thought.

But Gu Yunshen didn't think so. He clenched his fists and thought, Jiang Yubai deserves a beating. He actually dared to drag my sister into this.

"Qianqian, how did Jiang Yubai know that you were going to Qingfeng Town?" Xiaolan was a little confused. After all, it hadn't detected Jiang Yubai's intention to go to Qingfeng Town before.

"You are just a piece of data. Naturally, you don't understand the twists and turns in people's hearts. He just wants to use me to help him pave the way." Gu Qianyue said while playing with the transparent beads in her hand.

Xiao Lan scratched his head and couldn't figure it out, so he just told her about the rumors outside again.

It turned out that someone was leading the trend to throw dirty water on the Gu Mansion, thinking that the Gu Mansion sued the eldest princess in order to help Gu Qianyue vent her anger.

However, many people did not say anything because the Gu family had been guarding the border for the people for generations and just thought it was the eldest princess's fault.

"Your Majesty, the word has spread." The nanny said respectfully.

The woman on the platform stroked the falling tassels on her hair, with a satisfied smile on her face: "If you dare to steal my daughter's limelight, you must be prepared for backlash."

I have to say that the emperor and the queen are really a perfect match. Even their way of dealing with people is exactly the same.

The astute ministers naturally saw that this was the Queen's work, and that she wanted to use the people's public opinion to kill someone.

Because of this method, many loyal ministers were discouraged and everyone was hesitant and did not dare to take sides.

"Sir, why are you helping the Gu family?"

The subordinates didn't understand why this distinguished master would help her when he clearly had no connection with the Gu family.

Sometimes there is no need for a reason to help someone, just like General Gu.

He didn't say anything, but just kept observing what the people were talking about.

"Sorry for the wait." A man in black wearing a fang mask appeared.
