The Return of the Marquis's Daughter

Chapter 180 Joining forces with Prince Yong

When Gu Changan heard this, he knew that Prince Yong had agreed to join forces with him.

He took out a roll of something from his sleeve and handed it to Prince Yong.

Then he said lightly, "We don't have to do anything ourselves, we can also kill with a borrowed knife.

Don’t they really like this trick of using someone else’s knife to kill someone? Let’s just return the favor. This is called “not returning the favor.”

Prince Yong: ...

He looked at Gu Changan deeply, then took the thing in his hand, opened it and took a look, his expression suddenly changed.

He walked a few steps to the light and looked through it carefully. The more he looked, the heavier his expression became. After he finished reading it all, he turned to look at Gu Changan, "Are these all true?"

"Uncle Emperor, how can there be any falsehood in these things? If there is no solid evidence, how could they be brought to you, Uncle Emperor?

Even if it's not for my own good, I can't possibly make things difficult for my uncle!"

Prince Yong was deeply surprised. He never thought that Gu Chang'an could actually recruit the chief manager of the Imperial Stables.

No one knew what kind of person Liu Wen was better than Prince Yong. It was amazing that such a person was quietly won over by his good nephew.

It is true that the young are formidable, the young are formidable~

His nephew is usually a very cunning person and never reveals his thoughts. Who would have thought that he has such ability.

It can be said that if you don't make a sound, you will make a big splash. He still underestimated it.

"You have to understand that once these things about the Imperial Stables are exposed, the consequences will be beyond our control."

Prince Yong looked at Gu Changan, "My royal brother is so protective of Gu Yunzhou right now, it won't be that easy to touch him.

Besides, there is the entire Wen family. The two women of the Wen family have not been sitting around doing nothing in the palace all these years."

"Uncle, you're worrying too much. As the saying goes, success depends on human effort. If you can't succeed once, there will be another time, and another after that.

There will always be a time when, no matter how powerful the Wen family is or how capable Gu Yunzhou is, there will come a day when they will collapse.

Besides, I had no intention of overthrowing them all at once, if they hadn't done things so against their conscience and morality.

Who wants that position? Even for the sake of the people of Daxia, we can’t let them go on their own~"

Gu Changan looked at Prince Yong after he finished speaking, "Uncle, if you retreat now, Gu Jingyi's life and property will really be lost in the Northern Frontier~"

When Prince Yong heard Gu Chang'an mention his son again, the last trace of hesitation in his eyes disappeared in an instant. His son's life or death is still unknown.

The Wen girl and Gu Yunzhou were the sharp knives that would kill his son. How could he possibly retreat even one step? If he retreated even one step at this moment, his precious son would have no chance of survival.

This was not what he wanted, nor was it the result he wanted to see. He had to try it anyway. It was better than sitting at home and doing nothing.

After seeing off Gu Changan and Prince Yu, Prince Yong no longer felt sleepy. He sat in his study, his thoughts racing. It wasn't until dawn in the east that he finally pulled himself together.

Then he went directly to the Qinzheng Palace to personally expose the corruption and abuse of power of those in the Imperial Stables, who falsely reported the number of horses and sent inferior horses to the northern border as good ones.

In an instant, the attention of the entire court shifted to the matter of the Imperial Stables.

Gu Changan and several other princes stood silently. He also followed the other brothers in putting on a look of surprise. Of course, he managed to get away with it, but the other brothers were really surprised.

The Imperial Stables has always been a place that the current emperor values ​​highly, and he has spent huge amounts of money on it every year, but in the end, something like this happened.

Liu Wen, the chief steward of the Imperial Stables, was the first to be summoned by His Majesty to the Qinzheng Hall for questioning on the spot.

Regardless of the changing situation in the Qinzheng Palace, Qin Wenlan was currently receiving Lu Minglan in the Fanrong Courtyard.

Her face was filled with sorrow and sadness. She looked at Qin Wenlan and said, "As soon as the story of Marquis Wucheng came out, my father secretly inquired about it. Turns out it's true. Wenlan, what do you think we should do next?"

Qin Wenlan looked at the woman across from him and asked, "Are you worried about your marriage to the young master of the Marquis of Wucheng Mansion?"

Lu Minglan didn't hide anything and nodded directly, "Yes, Wenlan, people like us are not the kind of people who forget their principles when they see profit.

But in this situation, my father and mother can't just watch me jump in there!"

After hearing this, Qin Wenlan knew what the Taifu Mansion was worried about. After thinking for a moment, she said, "What do your father and mother think?"

Lu Minglan had a worried look on her face. "Of course my mother feels bad for me. She's thinking that if Marquis Wucheng really has committed a serious crime, this marriage won't be possible.

But my father ultimately refused to agree. He believed that since the marriage had already been decided, how could he do such a treacherous and despicable thing?

But my mother feels that this matter must concern my entire life, and I can't bear to see them worrying and working hard every day, so she came to you.

You must be more knowledgeable than me, so please help me make some decisions and think about what I should do next.

I can’t bear to see my mother so sad all the time.”

Of course Qin Wenlan would not come up with this idea, but she also knew that Lu Minglan was really upset at the moment.

However, this matter involves the imperial court, and some things cannot be leaked casually before they are successful.

However, the fact that the Grand Tutor could say these words shows that he is a man of affection and righteousness. It is understandable that the Grand Tutor's wife loves her daughter and wants to cancel the engagement.

Anyone would think this way, after all, a mother and a father cannot have the same ideas.

Women usually think about their own daughters, and other family and national affairs are not within their consideration. Besides, most people cannot think so far.

After thinking about this, Qin Wenlan looked at Lu Minglan, "Minglan, it's too early to say anything now when things are not clear yet.

I understand that Madam Taifu loves you, but I think it would be better to wait a little longer and see how it goes."

Lu Minglan forced a smile and said, "Well, what you said is not without reason. It's just that my mother is a little impatient. It's better to be patient until things are cleared up."

"What do you think?" Qin Wenlan asked suddenly.

Lu Minglan sighed, "Don't you know what kind of person I am? It's impossible to cancel the engagement. How can a person be so heartless and ungrateful? That's the behavior of a mean person.

But of course I can’t tell this to my mother, I just want to tell you, after all, I’m an unmarried girl, if…”

Qin Wenlan looked at Lu Minglan and smiled, "Minglan, you have always been a good woman. Don't worry, you will be a blessed person!"
