The eldest lady breathed a sigh of relief, "How could that be, my aunt knows everything that happened.

They really deserve to suffer, otherwise there will be bigger troubles in the future.

My aunt is grateful to you so much."

When she came over, Tang also heard what had happened. As a person living in her sister-in-law's family, she couldn't say anything about it. However, she felt relieved that her sister-in-law did not help her family to bully Yue'er.

Gu Lingyue was very happy when she thought about what the eldest lady had said for her just now. At least the eldest lady did not blindly side with her mother's family. So, she still told them that close relatives could not get married.

"Really?" The eldest lady was terrified. "Fortunately, I postponed the marriage, otherwise Wenqi would have been harmed."

The Second Madam smiled and said, "At that time, Father and Mother were planning to have one of the Wenle brothers marry Yue'er.

When we came back, Yue'er had already married Prince Jing. I think if Yue'er hadn't married, Dad would have definitely brought up this matter."

Gu Lingyue: ...

She didn't know that her grandfather would have such an idea. She thought that the original owner's reputation as a fool must have spread to Youzhou, and her grandfather must have had such an idea because he was afraid that she would not be able to find a good family.

If Long Shang knew about this, he would definitely eat the wrong thing again.

The eldest lady and Mrs. Tang also smiled helplessly.

There was no way around it. Their family was dominated by men and only favored their daughter. It had been like that since she was a child, and Tang felt warm in her heart.

At this time, Madam Tang sent someone to find Gu Lingyue, "Princess, the old lady said that the Marquis is ready, you can go over."

"I know, I'll go there now."

After everyone arrived, Gu Lingyue asked everyone, including Old Madam Tang, to wait outside, and secretly told Yun Jin not to let anyone into the house. She used silver needles to seal Tang Zhenhong's sleeping point and took him into the space.

Gu Lingyue was busy performing surgery on Tang Zhenhong, and the people in the palace were also busy.

Empress Shen was discussing with Emperor Tianqi in the imperial study the matter of selecting a concubine for Long Jun.

"Your Majesty, Xian'er has passed away, and Jun'er is the only one left by my side..." When she said this, her face was full of heartache.

Emperor Tianqi sighed. He felt bad too, but it was all Long Xian's own fault. What else could he do? He couldn't just kill his other son as well.

Empress Shen knew that Emperor Tianqi would not make the decision for her. She secretly resented him but did not show it on her face.

"Jun'er's family still has no official wife. I would like to hold a banquet for him to choose a concubine. I beg for your permission, Your Majesty."

Emperor Tianqi pondered for a moment and said, "You decide."

"Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace."

After Empress Shen left, Emperor Tianqi stopped reviewing the memorials and instead looked thoughtful...

Meanwhile, Concubine Lu was in the Empress Dowager's palace, looking worried as she asked, "Aunt, the Emperor has already ordered my cousin to return to the capital. Are we really just going to wait here?"

"Where are you going? Do you think I can ever leave this palace?" The Queen Mother's tone was a little sad.

In fact, when she was tricked into telling the truth, she guessed that this would be the outcome, so she was anxious to write a letter to her son.

I have lived for most of my life and there is nothing to be nostalgic about. The only thing is that I haven't dealt with that little bitch yet.

A hint of cruelty flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes.

She has endured for long enough, it's time to take action!

……

After two hours of surgery, Gu Lingyue was exhausted and collapsed there. Fortunately, the operation was successful, and her merit points increased by another 500 points.

At this time, Tang Zhenhong was still unconscious and was receiving an IV drip. Gu Lingyue meditated to regain some strength. Seeing that the medicine would take some time to finish, she thought of the farmland outside the hospital, and then she appeared outside the hospital.

At this time, the leaves of the potatoes she planted had grown very tall and were covered with purple flowers.

She didn't expect that the crops planted in the space matured much faster than those outside. It seemed that it wouldn't be long before she could harvest the first crop.

Gu Lingyue watered the land and applied fertilizer, then went back to the hospital to take a shower before taking Tang Zhenhong out of the space.

She let Tang Zhenhong lie on the bed, walked to the door and opened it. Several pairs of eyes outside looked at the door at the same time, including Gu Lingyue's three cousins.

"Don't worry, everyone. My grandpa is fine. It's just that the effect of the Ma Fei San hasn't worn off yet. He will wake up in a while." Gu Lingyue comforted.

Everyone was relieved at this point, especially Old Madam Tang and Mrs. Tang.

Old Madam Tang knew the suffering Tang Zhenhong had endured, and she had been feeling very worried. Now when she finally heard Gu Lingyue say that her old man was fine, her eyes filled with tears.

Tang blamed herself for not being able to take care of her parents for so many years, so when she heard Tang Zhenhong's voice of pain and endurance last time, she anxiously asked someone to find Gu Lingyue to check her father's body.

At this time, everyone wanted to go in and take a look, but was stopped by Gu Lingyue.

"Too many people going in will be bad for my grandfather's wound. Just two people will be enough."

When everyone heard that Yu Tang Zhenhong was in poor health, they did not dare to act rashly. In the end, Old Madam Tang and Mrs. Tang went in first, and the others would come later.

After having dinner at the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, Gu Lingyue left some medicine for Tang Zhenhong and said goodbye.

If she hadn't been afraid of revealing that Long Shang was not in Prince Jing's Mansion, she would have stayed in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.

When Long Shang left, he left some secret guards for her, but it was already late at night and the capital had been in turmoil in recent days. The eldest lady was afraid that something might happen to her, so she asked Tang Wenqi and his two brothers to send Gu Lingyue back home.

Halfway through, they were blocked by more than a dozen men in black, who rushed towards Gu Lingyue's carriage without saying a word.

The secret guard who was protecting Gu Lingyue in the dark appeared and started fighting with the newcomers.

"Looking for death." Tang Wenle and the fifth brother Tang Wenzhe joined the battle, while Tang Wenqi and Yunjin guarded both sides of the carriage.

Yun Shu's injury had not healed yet, and Qiu Tong didn't know any martial arts, so Gu Lingyue asked the two of them to stay in the carriage, and she lifted the curtain of the carriage and wanted to get out.

"Stay here and don't come out. These bastards don't need you yet." Tang Wenqi shouted at her.

After hearing this, Gu Lingyue had no choice but to sit in the car obediently.

However, the assassins who came this time didn't seem to be particularly powerful, and they were all captured in a short time.

However, these assassins had poisonous fangs in their mouths, and they bit their fangs to pieces as soon as they were captured. By the time Tang Wenle and others were ready to remove their jaws, they had already died.

"Third brother, they are all dead." The speaker was Tang Wen Ze, the fifth son of the Tang family.

Although he is the youngest among the Tang brothers, his martial arts skills are the most powerful among them. He is born with supernatural powers and wields two big hammers on the battlefield. Just now, he fought with the enemy with bare hands and most of the assassins were knocked down by him.

"It turns out to be a death squad." Tang Wenle said with a dark face.

Tang Wenqi's expression remained unchanged. "Search to see if there's anything like a keepsake."

Gu Lingyue in the carriage listened to the conversation outside and seemed to be lost in thought.

"Princess, who do you think sent this person?" Yun Shu also lifted the curtain and looked outside.

Gu Lingyue sneered, "Who else could it be? Either the Queen's faction or the Queen Mother's faction."

She prefers the Queen Mother.

Although the queen knew that she had killed her son, now was the critical moment for Long Jun to become the crown prince. Even if she wanted to kill herself, she would not do it during this time.

At this time, a secret guard found a jade pendant from a corpse and handed it to Yun Shu, "This was found on the assassin. It should have belonged to the guards of Prince Xing's Palace."

Prince Xing's Palace?

The three Tang brothers all had gloomy expressions. Prince Xing actually sent someone to assassinate their cousin?

They hadn't even gone to him to settle the score, yet he actually had the audacity to send someone to assassinate their cousin?!

Gu Lingyue’s eyes were deep.

Is that the person sent by King Xing?

She doesn't believe it.

Who would send someone to assassinate someone while carrying something that represents their identity?

She looked sarcastic.

They want to put the blame on Prince Xing's Mansion and bring themselves into conflict with Prince Xing. Do they want to reap the benefits?

If that's the case, they are doomed to be disappointed!

Gu Lingyue asked Yun Shu to hand the jade pendant to the secret guards, and then asked several secret guards to carry the bodies of the dead soldiers to the gate of Prince Xing's Mansion. "And give the jade pendant to the people in Prince Xing's Mansion. Let them find out who framed them."

I don't want to be someone else's free labor.

Everyone returned to Prince Jing's Mansion. The three Tang brothers also knew that Prince Jing was not at the mansion, so in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they left after a short time.

Gu Lingyue waited for them to leave and then entered the space.

Now that she had merit points, she bought another twenty acres of land and wheat seeds to start planting in her space.

Long Jun was awakened by Qingshan in his sleep and was told that people from Prince Jing's Mansion had sent some assassins' bodies and the unique tokens of their guards.

Long Jun was so angry that he almost vomited blood. This must have been done by Long Fu. He wanted to frame him. He was so despicable.

After he calmed down after a fit of rage, he realized what the people from Prince Jing's Mansion meant by throwing corpses and things in front of his mansion door. Was it a warning to him or had Long Shang guessed that Long Fu did it and wanted him to deal with Long Fu?

He asked Qingshan to call his staff over. These people were once the staff of Longxian's mansion.

Ever since he decided to fight for the position of crown prince, he brought these people into his own house.

"I think that no matter which possibility it is, it is best not to act rashly until the Emperor officially declares you the Crown Prince.

Therefore, I believe the best solution to this matter is for you to go to Prince Jing and explain to him face to face that those assassins are not from our family at all. As for the origin of the token, I believe His Majesty will definitely investigate it."

Long Jun snorted coldly, "If I tell him, will he believe it?"

“Whether he believes it or not, it’s a matter of attitude.

As the prince said, if they dumped the body at our gate as a threat, then we are explaining this to Prince Jing. If he knew it was Prince Yi who dumped it at our gate, then we are telling him that we are not responsible for it.

Long Jun frowned and was still hesitating.

The man continued, "I know you're unwilling to accept this, and we're also very angry about the former Crown Prince's incident, but now is a critical moment. Prince Jing no longer has the opportunity to run for Crown Prince. You should focus your full attention on Prince Yi, as he is now your biggest enemy.

As for the rest, when you have power, you can deal with whomever you want with just a word."

The others also unanimously agreed with this person's statement and advised Long Jun to put the overall situation first.

After hearing this, Long Jun thought for a while, gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.

He immediately ordered people to take the body away and throw it into a mass grave, and early the next morning he went to Prince Jing's Mansion in person to ask to see Long Shang.

Wang An saw that Prince Xing actually came to his door. He didn't know the purpose of Long Jun's visit. It was just that his prince was not in the palace at the moment. Although he believed in his princess, who knew whether Prince Xing knew how good his princess was and wanted to take her back.

Even if his princess doesn't like Prince Xing, he doesn't want Prince Xing to get close to his princess.

So when Wang An sent someone to tell Gu Lingyue that Long Jun was coming to Prince Jing's mansion, he directly rejected Long Jun, "To be honest with Prince Xing, my prince has been in poor health these days and is not able to see guests. I'm really sorry."

After saying this, Wang An kept saying in his heart: "Buddha bless you! This is all nonsense from me. The bad ones don't work, but the good ones do!"

Long Jun's face looked extremely ugly. The people from Prince Jing's Mansion were simply ungrateful. He had come here in person, but they actually refused to see him. After he gained power, they would be the first to target him.

However, he had not yet achieved the purpose of his visit, so he said: "My fourth brother is ill, and it is impossible that my fourth sister-in-law is also ill, so it is okay for me to see her."

Wang An was even more unwilling to do so when he heard this. He asked him to leave because he didn't want him to see his princess.

"My prince loves his princess dearly and won't let us disturb her sleep. He will count the time when she wakes up. So, I don't know when she will wake up."

When Long Jun heard this, his face turned completely dark.

At this time, he didn't think that Long Shang was suddenly unwell. He thought that Long Shang and Gu Lingyue must have made a lot of noise at night, so he didn't get up now.

That bitch Gu Lingyue, she hurt herself like this, but she is still getting away with it. It's outrageous!

He had already found out that the girl next to Gu Youyan was responsible for his accident, but that bitch had completely disappeared after he kicked her out of the room, and his people still had no idea where she was.

Since Gu Lingyue knew that he was poisoned, even if it was not her who ordered it, she must know how to detoxify him.

Thinking of this, Long Jun became even angrier.

She hid it so well that I really thought she was just a fool. I didn't expect that she not only knew medicine but also martial arts.

If he had known that she was so powerful, he would not have agreed to the marriage exchange, and perhaps his royal brother would not have died.

He really regretted it now.

Long Jun narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold arc appeared at the corner of his mouth. Why not take this opportunity to show some mercy to her? If she changes her mind, then he will keep her by his side for a while.

So, Long Jun slowed down his tone and said, "Since Fourth Brother is in poor health, then I should go and visit him. After all, he and I are brothers, and we have a deep brotherly love."

Having said that, he turned around and left the main hall, walking towards the backyard of Prince Jing's Mansion.

Seeing this, Wang An hurried forward and blocked Long Jun's way. "Prince Xing, you cannot enter without the consent of my prince or princess. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Long Jun sneered, "I'm determined to go in today. Unless you bring people to kill me right now, I must see my fourth brother today.

I want to see if you have the courage!"
