Chapter 584 Caught off guard
"But didn't Guan Qinchao explain it to you today? We're going to have to wait until they come with helpers. ”
Jiang Ruanyan slowly stopped his tears.
"Everything I say is true, I assure you. As long as my father is willing to let you go, I can promise him anything. ”
"Including letting you go back and take over the throne?" Jiang Ruanyan asked with a crying voice.
Gu Shenyuan was silent for two seconds, "Yes." ”
Jiang Ruanyan's eyes instantly turned red again.
"I also thought about whether to negotiate with him on such terms, after all, the situation was very tense at that time."
Gu Shenyuan was in the prince's mansion, and he didn't think about taking a step back to protect Gu Gangqian.
"Xia Zhiyi has been looking for trouble with you again, she has always wanted to bring your affairs back to her father."
Although Gu Gangqian was in prison, she had also heard about the situation outside.
Xia Zhiyi's repeated provocations cannot be completely ineffective.
She knew that the emperor had been staring at them, but it was just that Gu Shenyuan was not easy to start.
"Fortunately, there is this auction, and fortunately, Gu Gangqian brought you to the teahouse, I don't know if this is helping us or harming us."
He took Gu Gangqian's hand.
"But at least now that I've got you out, we can still hold each other and hold each other's hands."
Gu Shenyuan knew that Jiang Ruanyan would definitely be sad when he said such a thing, and what he hoped for was definitely for the two of them to be together.
But he wanted to tell Jiang Ruanyan what he thought in his heart.
In the face of all problems, his first choice is to let Jiang Ruanyan survive first, only if he survives, he can talk about it, and he can talk about it in the future.
"But you know that if your father really agreed, then it would be impossible for us to meet, let alone be together......"
Jiang Ruanyan cried into tears, for that she would feel that she was more painful than dead.
She finally found someone who loved her so much, but the two of them would never see each other, so wouldn't it be back to the days she didn't want to remember the most?
"I know, so I didn't do that, I'm waiting for the right time, don't you see we're still together now? It's all fine. ”
Gu Shenyuan tried his best to bring her back to the status quo.
"I know you're angry at what I said today, and I apologize to you, but you know, it's just a ploy."
Gu Shenyuan whispered softly, and the hand he was holding did not let go.
"I won't leave you easily, I will be careful with every decision I make, and you will also make decisions carefully in the future, okay?"
Gu Shenyuan stroked Jiang Ruanyan's hair, feeling the temperature from his fingertips, Jiang Ruanyan slowly quieted down.
Although she was still sobbing, she was no longer so angry with Gu Shenyuan.
She leaned into her beloved's arms and felt his heartbeat.
Indeed, if a person dies, everything is gone.
Now that you can finally escape, let's try to survive.
"So what are you going to do in the future? You'll never see your father and mother again. ”
Gu Gangqian asked in a whisper in his arms.
"I'll tell you one more thing."
"What?" When Jiang Ruanyan heard such a statement, he immediately raised his head from his arms, for fear that it would be some terrible secret.
"Actually, before the operation last night, the mother came to look for me."
Gu Gangqian was very scared, not knowing whether this news was good or bad.
"She seemed to know that we were going to act, but she didn't say anything, she just said to come and see me, and then follow me to take my jade pendant."
Gu Shenyuan paused, "But I know from her back that she is sending me away." ”
Gu Shenyuan hugged Jiang Ruanyan in his arms again.
"I know how much they love me, and I love them, but I'm grown up, I have my life to go, they have their decisions to make, and all we can do is not interfere with each other."
Jiang Ruanyan didn't ask anything else, and obediently leaned into Gu Shenyuan's arms.
When she was in prison, she also thought about empathy, if she was Concubine Qi or the emperor, what should she do?
On one side is the person who his best son likes, and on the other side is the remnants of the previous dynasty, which side cannot be easily given up.
Killing the remnants of sin can bring peace to the world, but you will never be forgiven by your own son.
And if you choose the former, the world will be in chaos, and this is definitely not a decision that a wise ruler would make.
She struggled in prison for a long time without coming up with an answer.
Maybe this is the best answer now, and Gu Shenyuan will make the decision for them.
Concubine Qi has obviously figured this out, but it is still difficult for the emperor to accept it.
At the auction, after the fire, the people were in chaos, and almost all the officers and soldiers below went to chase after the people who smashed things.
In the middle of this oversight, the prisoner slipped away.
When the news reached the emperor, he was so angry that he clapped the case, "What did you say? ”
The soldiers below knelt on the ground and shivered, but they had to report the matter truthfully.
"Why don't you send someone after me! No villages or forests within a hundred miles of the capital will be spared for me, and if you can't find me, you'll all be locked up in a dungeon!" ”
"Yes!" The soldier hurriedly ran down again.
Father-in-law Ye was on the sidelines, knowing that this time the big thing was not good.
After a long time, the emperor summoned people again.
A soldier hurriedly ran forward, "Go, call the eldest prince to me." ”
He sorted out his thoughts, and the only place he could investigate now was Gu Gangqian's place.
He wanted to call Gu Gangqian over and ask him clearly, for what reason, he wanted to drag Jiang Ruanyan and these people to such a lively place.
Knowing that they are prisoners, and still sending them to such a special place, could it be that he has already colluded with them?
The people below hurried to Gu Gangqian's house, and saw Gu Gangqian's carriage halfway there.
He hurriedly stopped, "Your Highness, the emperor is looking for you." ”
"I know, I also have something to tell my father, lead the way."
In fact, he knew it long before his father received the notice.
Not all the people he sent to the prince's mansion were eliminated by Gu Shenyuan, and there were always a few who stayed in the prince's mansion.
So I knew early on when Gu Shenyuan would do it and what the plan was.
He deliberately stood still, and asked these people to pretend that nothing had happened and continued to observe in the dark.
Until the day of Gu Shenyuan's operation, he secretly helped them escape from the capital.
He didn't want anything else, he just wanted to find another opportunity to directly end Gu Shenyuan here.
He had already thought about it, it would be too troublesome to wait for his father to make a move, and the chance was almost zero.
No matter what, it was impossible for the father to bear to kill his most beloved son, so Gu Gangqian decided to do everything himself.
He sent someone to lurk beside Gu Shenyuan, follow him out of the city, and even help Gu Shenyuan when necessary.
In order to find an inaccessible place to make it easy to get started.
He knew that Gu Shenyuan's strength was high, but Jiang Ruanyan was a woman who didn't know anything.
Gu Shenyuan will definitely leave many opportunities to protect her at that time, and there are so many people he sent out, maybe he will succeed.
When the time comes, if he really kills Gu Shenyuan, then he can also go to the emperor and say that the people under him are reckless, and he inadvertently stabbed Gu Shenyuan and died on the way back.
Externally, he can ask those who serve in the prince's mansion to come out and prove it.
At the time when Jiang Ruanyan and they escaped from the city, they had already been drugged and stunned, and when they woke up, Gu Shenyuan was no longer in the mansion.
This is enough to prove that Gu Shenyuan is related to the prison robbery incident, for a son who assists a fugitive to escape, even if he is the prince, how can the emperor support him to the throne?
And if you can't kill Gu Shenyuan, it's easy to do.
As long as Gu Shenyuan robs the prisoner, Gu Gangqian can be 100% sure of his feelings for Jiang Ruanyan.
Since they have all been robbed, Gu Shenyuan will naturally not take Jiang Ruanyan to take risks often, he must be as far as he can.
Then he didn't have to worry that Gu Shenyuan would come back to grab the throne with him.
So either way, she has become the only candidate to inherit the throne.
And now he saw that the hour was almost up, and the man he sent out had not yet returned, so he knew that something was wrong.
He didn't care about the life and death of those people, as long as he knew that Gu Shenyuan had fled, he would go into the palace non-stop.
A quarter of an hour later, things won't be good.
Soon he had come to the Heart Cultivation Hall and knelt in front of the emperor.
"Son-in-law, see father."
As soon as he finished speaking, a teacup grazed his shoulder and fell to the ground.
"You still have the face to be called my father, what good things have you done?"
"Father, I don't know what you said?"
Gu Gangqian raised his head with an innocent look.
"You still don't know what you did, say, did you send someone to transfer Jiang Ruanyan and them to the teahouse to watch the auction today?"
When the emperor said it, he didn't get angry, did he have to ask him so clearly?
But Gu Gangqian at the bottom still looked at the emperor with a confused look.
"Father, what you said, the sons and daughters don't know, and they have been in the house today, they have never been out, and they have never let anyone pass the word, how can they transfer people to the teahouse?"
Of course, the emperor didn't believe in his tricks, he knew how much Gu Gangqian hated Gu Shenyuan.
When Gu Shenyuan and Jiang Ruanyan became more and more in love and were supported by the people, he hated Jiang Ruanyan more and more.
Later, he united with Xia Zhiyi and made a black hand to Jiang Ruanyan many times, and the emperor knew all these things, but he didn't want to say it clearly.
But now that it has risen to the level of national security, Gu Gangqian still treats it as a child's play, how can the emperor still endure it?
"You don't know, that's weird, I haven't let anyone go to the dungeon today, so who else has the guts to do that?"
This was obviously a rhetorical question, but Gu Gangqian understood it as a question.
"Father, I don't know about the ministers here, could it be everything that the second brother arranged in advance?"
The emperor's eyes widened in anger.
Obviously, it is this Gu Gang who has ruined his good deeds now.
deliberately brought people to a crowded place, giving Gu Shenyuan a chance to rob the prison, and let him escape with the remnants of the previous dynasty.
Now Gu Gangqian actually came to slander Gu Shenyuan for doing all this!
"Father, don't you know, the person you just sent out met on the way, because the retainer knew the news and was also rushing to the palace."
"What do you know?" The emperor's tone was very unfriendly.
