Before Gu Guanqi could say anything more, Fang said with red eyes: "Guanqi, don't mess around." Such a major matter, even His Highness cannot make decisions without authorization. Don't embarrass Wanning. ”

Gu Guanning's influence on the grandson, of course, the Gu family is very clear.

Because of this, Gu Guanning can't come forward at this time, so as not to fall into the mouth. It can't arouse the suspicion of Emperor Yuanyou.

Gu Guanqi flattened her mouth, wiped her tears with her hands, and stopped talking.

Gu Guanning smiled at the Fang clan: "Third aunt, there are no outsiders here, and it doesn't matter what the fourth sister says." ”

Fang Shi couldn't squeeze out a smile for a long time, and said sadly: "It should be your third uncle's fate that has this calamity." As soon as your third uncle was impeached by the Yuan principal, the Yuan family was wiped out, and your third uncle was the most suspicious. Zuo Shilang acted fairly, never showed favoritism, and personally came to 'invite' your third uncle. He had a clear conscience and went to the criminal department. ”

In a place like the Criminal Department, it is easy to get in, but it is not so easy to get out.

The Yuan family was destroyed, and if no evidence could be found that it was done by someone else, Gu Hai would have to bear the suspicion of murder one day.

The other party has the means to commit murder, but how can he be easily caught?

Gu Wanning's heart was also a little heavy when he saw Fang's appearance like this. He had to comfort Fang Shi with a few words: "Zuo Shilang is the best at investigating and judging cases, and he will never wronged the innocent." The third uncle will definitely come back safe and sound. Now that he is temporarily living in the Criminal Department for a while, no one dares to let the third uncle be angry and guilty. The third aunt doesn't have to worry. ”

Fang Shi snorted and didn't speak again.

Gu Wanning's eyes swept and fell on Gu Jinxing's face: "Big brother, the third uncle is not here, and you have to worry about the affairs of the house." ”

Gu Jinxing now has a short beard, less immature than in the past, more mature and steady, and replied in a deep voice: "Second sister, don't worry! I will take good care of my grandmother and third aunt." ”

Mrs. Tai, who had been silent, finally opened her mouth: "You all go back first, I have something to say to Sister Ning alone." ”

……

After the people in the three rooms of the long room left, only Mrs. Tai and Gu Guanning were left in Zhenghe Hall.

Gu Wanning stepped forward and called out to his grandmother.

Mrs. Tai cheered up and responded: "Your body is important, you are not in the mansion to give birth and raise, why did you run back? ”

Gu Wanning didn't argue, and obediently agreed.

Mrs. Tai was silent for a moment before sighing: "I really didn't expect King Qi to be so ruthless. In order to get rid of the Gu family's secret guards, he actually made this poisonous hand and destroyed the Yuan family. ”

Gu Hai is the most suspicious, and Zuo Shilang will strictly investigate the Gu family. The Gu family's thousands of secret guards are afraid that they won't be able to hide it for long.

Gu Wanning sneered: "In order to deal with the Gu family and His Royal Highness, King Qi has no scruples and is so vicious. I'm afraid that it will also chill the officials under the command of King Qi. ”

"Moreover, such an act cannot be concealed from the emperor's grandfather. The more vicious he is, the more disgusted and wary the imperial grandfather will be, and the more resolute his heart will be to make His Royal Highness the prince. ”

"King Qi is killing chickens and taking eggs, and killing himself. ”

Mrs. Tai has been preoccupied for the past two days and has not thought deeply. When Gu Guanning said this, it suddenly became clear.

If you take chess as an analogy, King Qi's move, killing 800 enemies and losing 1,000 yourself, is by no means a clever move.

As long as the grandson can successfully become the prince, all the thoughts of King Qi will be in vain.

It's just that where the Gu family's secret guards should go is also a headache.

Gu Wanning's eyes flashed slightly, and he lowered his voice and said: "Grandmother, the Gu family's secret guard, it is not appropriate to stay in the capital anymore, let them secretly hide their traces and withdraw from the capital." When the rumors pass in the future, it is not too late to secretly recall. ”

Mrs. Tai nodded: "You and I have thought of one thing." I'll give the order and let Gu Bai arrange everything secretly. ”

Then, he sighed again: "Your concubine Taisun doesn't stop doing it, you stay in the house every day, and there are still rumors outside." said that you are ambitious, controlling the Dingbei Hou Mansion with one hand and the inner mansion of the Prince's Mansion with the other. In the future, the grandson will be the prince, you will definitely use the grandson to interfere in politics, and in the future, you will seek to seize the world of the Xiao family and become the world of the Gu family. ”

These rumors are obviously aimed at Gu Wanning.

Emperor Yuanyou was already suspicious of Gu Guanning, how would he react when he heard such rumors?

Gu Wanning was quite calm, and even smiled: "This matter has long been expected by His Highness and I. Grandmother don't have to worry, since the imperial grandfather is determined to make His Royal Highness the prince, he will never waver because of rumors. ”

"Silly girl, I'm not worried about Your Highness, I'm worried about you. ”

Mrs. Tai's eyes showed a sad color: "Your Highness's status is unshakable, but what about you? If the emperor listens to the rumors and dislikes it in his heart, and chooses another famous noble girl as a side concubine for His Royal Highness, what will you do?"

Gu Wanning raised his eyebrows slightly, and replied without hesitation: "Your Highness will never nod in agreement." ”

"I know Your Highness's affection for you. However, the Holy Command could not be disobeyed. By divine decree, you are no longer willing and helpless. Mrs. Tai said helplessly: "At that time, how should you deal with yourself?"

In his previous life, the grandson was weak, and no one dared to send a beauty to the grandson. Emperor Yuanyou was also afraid that the grandson would be too beautiful and damage his body, so he did not give a side concubine.

In this life, Taisun's body is far better than in his previous life, and he no longer has this trouble. If Emperor Yuanyou moved this layer of thought, it was not impossible.

Gu Wanning smiled faintly: "Your Royal Highness wants to keep filial piety for your father for three years, that is, to give a side concubine, and it will be three years later." By that time, Your Highness's foundation will be solid, and I will not be the Lord to be rubbed. Grandmother don't worry. ”

Three years from now, it's too early to worry.

The most important thing is to solve the current dilemma first.

Mrs. Tai and Gu Guanning discussed a few words in a low voice.

I don't know what Gu Wanning said, Mrs. Tai's face showed a look of horror, and she quickly took a deep breath and regained her composure: "Okay, everything is up to you." ”

In the way of others, return the body of others.

……

The tragedy of the Yuan family's destruction is still being investigated, but there has been a shocking change.

Gu Hai was in the prison, poisoned in food, and almost died.

The prison of the Criminal Department is supposed to be the safest place in the world, but it is unbelievable and appalling that such poisoning and murder can happen.

Zuo Shilang was angry, Meng Shilang, who was friends with Gu Haimo, was angry, and Shangshu of the Ministry of War was also angry. Immediately, a strict investigation was carried out, and within half a day, the person who poisoned the jailer was found out.

Under severe torture and interrogation, the dying jailer finally confessed that the mastermind behind it was Mo Yi of the Criminal Department.

Mo Langzhong, the criminal department, has always had a close relationship with King Qi and can be called King Qi's henchmen.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department secretly interrogated Mo Langzhong with the two waiters, but Mo Langzhong refused to confess. In desperation, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department had no choice but to report the matter to Emperor Yuanyou.

Emperor Yuanyou was furious, summoned King Qi into the palace and inquired in person.
