Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me
Chapter 116: Sure enough, those who are not of my race must have different hearts
Gu Chengjin held the note in his hand, his face gloomy as he fell into deep thought.
Everyone knows that the prince of Dongyi Kingdom came here to escort his sister to marriage. Even the news they reported to the emperor said so. But they said they were sending one but actually brought two. What are they planning?
Being sneaky is definitely not a good thing, but how did that girl, Ali, get this inside information? Could it be that she has someone planted within the delegation?
His eyes also became strange. The child had changed a lot after not seeing him for a few years. He had given their family a lot of inside information. Who knows, the Gu family might be able to catch up with the dragon in the future.
Fang Jiale sat beside him, tilting his head and looking at him for a long time, just watching him holding the note without saying anything. He couldn't help but raise his hand and push him and asked anxiously.
"Don't be silent, what exactly does that child Ahri want to do? Is she in danger? How is this related to the people of Dongyi Country? Speak up."
Knowing that his wife was impatient, Gu Chengjin did not hide it from her. He lowered his voice and went over to explain the situation to her.
"Ah Li wants to tell us that there's a princess hiding in the delegation from the East Wing Kingdom. They're here with a conspiracy. She wants to remind me to be careful of the people from the East Wing Kingdom."
Fang Jiale leaned over to look at the note again, then frowned in sudden realization, with a hint of disgust in his eyes.
"That's why the note said one prince and two princesses. It's true that those who are not from our clan must have different hearts! I wonder what these East Wing bastards are planning to do to us?
The poison in the eunuch's body has just been cured and he is not feeling well. Otherwise, why don't we let him attend this palace banquet? We can just go as a couple and we can adapt to the situation as the time comes."
Coincidentally, Gu Chengjin thought the same thing and immediately nodded in agreement with a gloomy expression.
"Don't worry. When the time comes, just tell His Majesty that my father has caught a cold and asks for leave. I'm just worried about what these people are up to. I need to send someone into the delegation to investigate."
However, reliable personnel must be arranged for this matter. Several thoughts flashed through his mind instantly, and he narrowed his eyes and said nothing more.
Fang Jiale was still very confident in her husband's abilities. She patted his arm with emotion and chuckled. The tense atmosphere just now dissipated in an instant.
"Ali has worked so hard to find out such unknown information. She is smart, beautiful and sensible. If my son didn't really like her, I would really want to bring her back to me as my daughter."
Gu Chengjin naturally knew that she liked Ali, and he smiled and hugged his wife and joked.
"What does it matter? With your son being such a loser, you might as well just treat him as a daughter. Ah Li, please be careful and send us a copy of any news you have. I think this child is capable of great things."
It's just that the greater your ability, the greater the responsibility you have to bear. If Mu Yuan hadn't been away from home for many years fighting on the battlefield, this child wouldn't have to work so hard.
The couple was rarely intimate with each other, chatting and laughing for a while before going back to their own business.
My son specifically told me that he would go to the Mu family to formally propose marriage after the results of the autumn examination were announced. Since there are only a few days left, we have to choose an auspicious day to make the arrangements. We can't just deal with a good child like Ali.
(General's Mansion)
The atmosphere in the Shi residence has been somewhat heavy recently. Shi Pei's mood can only be described as terrible after he lost the hotly contested position of Minister of Justice.
But what was even worse was that a very important thing was lost in his house. It was a piece of false evidence that he had fabricated with great effort after learning that the position of Minister of Justice had gone to another family, in the hope that the emperor would re-select the candidate for the position.
But who could have thought that the things were placed in his own house and then disappeared out of thin air? The strangest thing was that there was an extra piece of paper on the desk in his study.
There was only one sentence on it:
I know who you're working for!
It was this sentence that made Shi Pei feel cold in his heart. He almost immediately ordered people to conduct a thorough investigation in the mansion, and even suspected all the servants in the mansion who could enter the study to serve. Unfortunately, he could not find any evidence of so-called betrayal from morning to night.
Shi Guangling's eyes were almost red from checking. He pressed his eyebrows anxiously and spoke to his father in a low voice.
"Father, since this frame-up doesn't work, why don't we just stop here? Even if we don't take action, his position might not be secure. Aren't there other princes watching him? Why dirty our own hands?"
To be honest, he didn't really want to do these things, but all his ambitions and dreams were shattered one day. It is impossible for someone who has boarded a pirate ship to get off midway, unless he dies!
Shi Pei is also a military general. He actually looks a bit rough, but anyone who underestimates him because of his beard will definitely suffer a loss.
His eyes were extremely dark, and the emotions in them were obscure and unclear. He was silent for a moment before speaking.
"Don't worry about this matter. Your father is going out for a while. Just keep an eye on your brother and don't let him say anything."
When mentioning his younger brother Shi Guangan, Shi Guangling was silent for a moment, then his eyes flashed and he softly offered an idea.
"...Father, my brother is now old enough to get married and have children. Why don't you find a suitable opportunity to send him back to his hometown and find him a wife. Maybe he can live a more peaceful life away from Beijing."
The most important thing is that their family must retain some bloodlines. If things succeed in the future, they will naturally be loyal ministers, but if things fail, who knows how they will die. He only has this one brother, so he always wants to protect him more.
Shi Pei raised his eyes and glanced at his eldest son. He could almost guess what he was thinking. After thinking about it, he relaxed.
"That's fine, but you have to be careful with your choice of person! The most important thing is to make him keep his mouth shut and not say anything he shouldn't."
If he hadn't accidentally let his youngest son discover the secret in his study, he wouldn't have been so cruel to his son! Some things are beyond one's control, and he can't be blamed!
Seeing that he agreed, Shi Guangling finally breathed a sigh of relief. He silently raised his hand to salute him and then said goodbye and went to his brother's yard.
There were many people standing in the yard, surrounding the room in layers, but the room was very quiet, so quiet that it was almost eerie.
Shi Guangling seemed to have gotten used to it. He glanced at the people in the yard and waved them away. However, after those people knelt down to salute him, they just retreated to the gate of the yard and stood guard.
His eyes dimmed but he didn't say much. He pushed the door open and walked into the room and went straight to the inner room.
At this time, there was a figure lying on the soft couch in the room, staring at the ceiling with dull eyes, motionless like a dead body.
If Mu Fushu saw that person here at this moment, he would surely be shocked.
