The Return of the Marquis's Daughter

Among the four concubines, except for Concubine Shu, the others continued to wait and see, and had no intention of taking any action. King Cheng, King Li, King Chu and King Xian even stood by and watched.

Only Prince Yu was very worried about the safety of Marquis Wucheng because of Marquis Jing'an, but he was the one with the least presence among all the princes.

Even in the eyes of the emperor, this son is a dispensable person. Even if he wants to help, he doesn't know where to start. He is so anxious that he is like an ant on a hot pan.

In the end, he could only think of his brother Gu Changan. He saw Prince Yu taking advantage of the night to come directly to Prince An's mansion and find Prince An.

"Nine Brother, I really have no other choice. Please help me this time." Prince Yu's eyes were moist and his whole body was trembling. He didn't know if it was because of the cold or...

The door of the study was closed. Gu Changan usually looked serious, and at this moment he looked even more cold and a chilling look on his face made people feel uneasy for no reason.

He raised his eyes to look at Prince Yu, and said with a thin mouth: "Sit down first and talk. No matter what, you are a prince. How can you be like this when something happens?"

Prince Yu was in no mood to sit still, but he dared not disobey a single word of his ninth brother's order. He sat halfway on the chair, but his eyes were fixed on his ninth brother, waiting for his answer.

Gu Changan met his eyes and sighed helplessly, "Eleventh Brother, it's not that Ninth Brother doesn't want to help, but the evidence is irrefutable. What do you want me to do?"

After hearing this, the light in Prince Yu's eyes instantly disappeared and he lowered his head in disappointment, but he knew that it was not his ninth brother's fault. He knew that if his ninth brother could help, he would definitely help him.

Gu Changan frowned slightly at his expression and asked, "Who asked you to come to me? Marquis Wucheng, or?"

When Prince Yu heard this, he shuddered and quickly shook his head, "No, no, I haven't even met Marquis Wucheng, how could he possibly ask me to do such a thing?"

Gu Changan's eyes narrowed as he continued, "So what news did Marquis Jing'an pass on to you?"

King Yu: ...

He really felt like kneeling down. Is this Ninth Brother still a human being?

Seeing this, Gu Changan immediately asked again, "Since you came here to ask me for help, you should tell me the truth, otherwise how would I know if there is a way?

What kind of situation has it become? You are still hiding it like this. Even if I am a great immortal, I can’t help you.”

Prince Yu was so frightened by his ninth brother's words that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly said, "Ninth brother, I really didn't intend to hide anything from you, but I really don't know how to say it!"

"That's not difficult at all. Just tell the truth."

"Oh, oh, I'll tell you everything, Brother Nine, but first let me sort out where I came from..."

Prince Yu trembled as he took out a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. Ninth Brother's icy appearance was really scary!

Seeing him like this, Gu Changan could only put away his outward coldness and sharp eyes and wait quietly.

Prince Yu then relaxed a little, sorted out his thoughts, and whispered, "Ninth Brother, it was Miss Li who gave me the news.

She told me that Marquis Jing'an had sent a letter home, saying the war situation in the northern border was very bad. The imperial court had no reinforcements, no food, no horses, and they couldn't hold out for much longer.

If something happened to Marquis Wucheng again at this time, no one in the court would come out to speak for Marquis Jing'an.

Miss Li also said that Gu Jingyi was injured during a military expedition and encountered the enemy on the battlefield. He was not healed and the war continued..."

Prince Yu paused slightly at this point, not daring to look at Ninth Brother's icy face, and continued with his head lowered, "For some reason, everyone in the army already knows his identity.

Now there are rumors everywhere that he joined the army just to gain military merit, so that he can get a promotion and a higher rank when he returns to the capital.

Gu Jingyi didn't want to be talked about by those people, so he had to go back to the battlefield with his injuries. As a result, he lost that battle, and he was finally carried back to the tent by the military sergeant.

I still don’t know the extent of his injuries, after all, he was already unconscious at the time…”

When Gu Changan heard this, his eyes fixed, the corners of his lips slightly pursed, and he looked at Prince Yu, "That's all, is there anything else you are hiding?

You'd better explain it clearly to me now, otherwise..."

When Prince Yu heard his ninth brother's voice, which sounded like ice chips, he even forgot to put down his hands that were wiping the sweat off his face.

He quickly said, "Miss Li doesn't know what happened to Gu Jingyi now, and Marquis Jing'an hasn't sent any letters yet.

That’s all I have for now, really.”

Gu Changan's heart sank for no reason when he heard this. If, if Gu Jingyi just... I'm afraid it would be difficult to explain to Prince Yong.

Gu Changan looked at Prince Yu and said, "Follow me now to Prince Yong's residence~"

Prince Yu was stunned. "Nineth Brother, now? I..."

It's already late at night...

Gu Changan looked at him with cold eyes, without saying a word, and Prince Yu immediately followed.

Whatever the Ninth Brother said was the truth. He was just an incompetent prince anyway. If he didn't obey his orders, he was afraid that the Ninth Brother would ignore him in the future.

The two men changed into casual clothes, Liang Yong and others avoided the patrol teams on the street, and quietly knocked on the door of Prince Yong's residence.

Prince Yong was woken up in the middle of the night and was very unhappy. His face looked as if he was frozen to death. When he saw Prince An and Prince Yu.

After listening to Gu Changan's words, his face became as cold as ice, and it was unfathomable under the light, revealing a solemn and murderous look.

"Who revealed Yier's identity?" Prince Yong looked at Prince Yu and asked.

Prince Yu's legs weakened in front of his uncle, and he quickly shook his head, "Marquis Jing'an's letter did not mention this matter."

Seeing him like this, Gu Changan took a step forward, blocking half of his body, and looked at Prince Yong and said, "Uncle, I think you already have the answer in your heart, so don't embarrass Old Eleven~"

Prince Yong sneered. Isn't this obvious? Besides the Wen girl, the other person who wanted him to have a hard time the most was that bastard Gu Yunzhou.

Otherwise, who else in the entire Great Xia Kingdom would be so bold as to touch Prince Yong's tiger whiskers? He really doesn't know what he is talking about.

Or maybe he was too low-key, so that those people thought that he, the decisive and ruthless Prince Yong, was a little white rabbit.

They thought that since he would not board Gu Yunzhou's ship, they wanted to eliminate this powerful rival of his directly. Yier just happened to meet him, so they used him as a test to establish their authority for him, Prince Yong.

Humph, very good, very good!

Prince Yong looked at Gu Changan, "What are you going to do next? What do you want to do?"

Gu Changan said calmly: "Isn't it obvious? First of all, we must protect Wu Chenghou. As long as Wu Cheng is saved.

Even if Jing'an Hou is stable, as long as he is as stable as Mount Tai, Gu Jingyi will be safe. Although we are unable to intervene in the war in the northern border, we can still handle the affairs in the capital..."

Prince Yong looked at Gu Changan and said, "How do you plan to protect Marquis Wucheng? This is not something you can just talk about~"
