If it weren't for Gu Congyuan's intentional promotion, it was estimated that the fifth prince Gu Huaiyuan's ability to handle cases would be covered in dust, and no one would appreciate it.

However, this time, Gu Huaiyuan's ability was brought out, and Gu Congyuan could be regarded as having seen a little bit of his greatness.

During this period of time, he couldn't help but have some appreciation and admiration for the five princes.

"I never knew that Lao Wu's ability to handle cases was very unique, but this time I was really impressed!" Gu Ji looked at the five princes in front of the palace very happily, and it was the first time that he felt that the naïve Gu Huaiyuan was so clever.

Gu Congyuan thought silently in his heart: "Because you are proud of yourself and never want to look at others, you naturally don't know the efforts of the fifth child." ”

Gu Huaiyuan said without hesitation: "I have the blessing of my second brother!" This time, the father must reward the second brother! ”

"Hahaha, it's your second brother who opens and closes your mouth, do you worship your second brother so much now? Well, both of you have a lot of rewards, and no one is indispensable! Gu Ji laughed heartily.

Gu Congyuan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, he said in a low voice: "Fifth brother, I originally brought you to tell you about the matter and accompany you to invite merit, why do you have my share now?" ”

"**Reward, second brother, you deserve those rewards!" Gu Huaiyuan winked his eyebrows at the person, obviously liking him very much.

Gonggong Li has already received the emperor's gift list, obviously these gifts are added later, and the batch that was originally drawn up has begun to be sent to the mansion of the two, after learning the news, Gu Huaiyuan danced excitedly.

An unfavored prince like him was overjoyed to receive so many gifts because of a single case.

The most important thing is that after this incident, everyone will no longer be unable to call the name of the fifth prince, and he will no longer be ignored as an air man.

Gu Congyuan looked at his excited stupid appearance, and really admired, and said, "Fifth brother, there is one more thing, be careful not to forget." ”

"One more thing?" Gu Huaiyuan still grinned and smirked, seeing that the person's expression was slightly solemn, he immediately reacted, "Oh, I remembered......"

He stepped forward and arched his hand: "Father, the son has one more thing to report!" ”

The word report is really sharp and ruthless, Gu Ji couldn't help but be stunned: "Is it possible that this Jizhou case has not been solved yet?" Didn't I just say I'm going to give you a reward? What's going on here? ”

"Father, it's not that the sons and daughters are troublesome, but that someone behind the scenes is trying to deliberately murder the prince, halfway I and my second brother were intercepted and killed by unknown people, and were almost killed by gunpowder, and the two powerful secret guards of His Royal Highness King Cong have been buried in that conspiracy." Gu Huaiyuan gritted his teeth indignantly and said.

"Interception!?" Gu Jiden stood up, his eyebrows raised in an instant, obviously shocking the news, "Then why didn't you say it earlier!" Can you forget such an important thing!? ”

Gu Huaiyuan choked for a moment, and he almost admitted that he had really forgotten about it.

"We don't know who is coming, but we have the audacity to try to assassinate us, and we hurried back to Beijing with heavy casualties, and the fifth brother must have been so tired that he was in a trance." Gu Congyuan came forward to relieve the siege at this time.

As soon as King Cong spoke, everyone always subconsciously believed it, and they all nodded with emotion.

The more Gu Ji thought about it, the more angry he became, and he gritted his teeth and trembled: "Okay...... In broad daylight, the two princes who want to intercept and kill my Tiansheng are really lawless! Have you interrogated you at Governor Li's mansion? ”

Gu Congyuan's eyelashes drooped slightly.

Now the biggest suspicion is the crown prince Gu Ziyan who was robbed of the task by him unintentionally, but the emperor subconsciously suspected that it was done by Li Zhifu's comrades, which really made Gu Congyuan have nothing to say.

It seems that today's emperor is still more partial to Gu Ziyan, and wants to rely on the gradual and touching father-son relationship to win the throne, which seems to be unfeasible here in His Second Highness.

The fifth prince was slightly stunned, he was also a little aggrieved in his heart, and quietly looked at Gu Congyuan for a day, but when he saw that the expression on the man's face was not salty or light, he also gave up.

He snorted for a while before he reluctantly said, "Not yet." ”

"In this case, I will send a few people to go to the prison with you, and interrogate all those people surnamed Li, more or less there will be some eyebrows, if not, I will continue to investigate, all in all, I will never let my emperor be wronged in vain!" After Gu Jixiong finished saying this excitedly, he coughed uncontrollably.

Li Gonggong stepped forward to help him, and took out a small handkerchief and handed it to him: "Ouch, Your Majesty, why are you coughing again?" Hurry up, hurry up, there is a condensing incense on this veil, which can calm down a little......"

"Gonggong Li, what's wrong with Your Majesty?" Gu Congyuan saw that people were coughing so violently that they almost coughed out their lungs, and they couldn't help but feel a burst of tracheal pain.

He just asked out of politeness, but he didn't expect to see that when Gu Ji took the veil off his lips, there was a trace of bright red blood wrapped in it.

At that time, Li Gongcheng turned his head to answer Gu Congyuan, and did not go to Gu Ji, so the man adhered to the principle that the ancestor of a country should die to save face and suffer crimes, and thought that he quietly took the blood-stained veil into his sleeve.

Gu Congyuan was suddenly stunned.

This old thing......

When did you get seriously ill to this extent?

In Gu Congyuan's memory, Gu Ji was in full bloom at this time, and his body was strong, just looking at his tall and big appearance, he didn't have the slightest vicissitudes of life, and he didn't know what was wrong, and now he noticed that this person had deep folds under his eyes, and his temples had frost and snow that could no longer be concealed.

He was dumbfounded.

The man Gu Congyuan hated the most in this life was none other than His Majesty the Emperor, who treated himself ruthlessly in the early years, but now he is also rickety.

is no longer the emperor who drove away the sixteen-year-old His Royal Highness King Cong in a fit of rage.

"Your Majesty, this symptom has been going on for a long time, and I don't know what the root of the disease is!" Gonggong Li was about to cry urgently, "The slave sees that Your Majesty is coughing all day long, and sometimes coughing up blood, it is almost heartbreaking!" I just wish it was on me! ”

"What!?" Gu Huaiyuan was shocked and said exaggeratedly, "But I haven't seen anything unusual about my father during this time, why is it so serious?" I...... I couldn't believe it. ”

Gu Ji waved his hand and motioned to the eunuch to stop talking.

However, Li Gongcheng wrinkled a bitter gourd face, and was busy complaining to His Royal Highness King Cong, and it was too late to deal with His Majesty, he said: "The two Royal Highnesses don't know, the emperor had this illness a few months ago, but he hasn't told you, and he doesn't want to recuperate in a big way, he is busy with government affairs all day long, and sometimes he even sleeps in clothes, so it's strange that he doesn't get tired and sick!" ”

“…… Actually, is that so? Gu Congyuan was deeply shocked.

He hated Gu Ji, Xiao Guifei and Gu Huai's grievances in his early years, but he never denied that Gu Ji was a good emperor, and seeing that he was so tired that he vomited blood in order to review that government affairs, he couldn't help but feel slightly moved in his heart.

Gu Huaiyuan was very anxious, wishing he could move the hospital over now, he asked angrily, "That's right!" Why didn't you look for Li Shengshou, isn't he the best at seeing a doctor? Didn't Yue'er's eye disease be cured by him? He must be able to! ”

"I tried, but it didn't work." Gu Ji had just finished coughing up blood, his voice was a little uncontrollable hoarse, and there were deep wrinkles under his eyes.

Gonggong Li also shook his head and sighed: "Yes...... If it really works, Your Majesty won't be coughing up blood today. ”

Gu Congyuan's hand behind his back pinched it involuntarily, hesitated a few times, and tightened it a few times before he mustered up the courage to ask, "Then what did Li Shengshou say?" Is it true that the cause cannot be found? ”

"Li Shengshou said that this is caused by His Majesty's overwork, and he must have a good rest, after a long time, his body and mind are relaxed, and this disease will slowly heal, but our Majesty has every opportunity, and the whole country has to rely on him to deal with it alone, how can there be a time to relax?" Li Song glanced at the emperor, and his eyes turned slightly red.

Gu Ji glanced at the loyal and even more empathetic old eunuch, this partner had been with him for many years, and now his body was not as good as day by day, he cared about himself more than anyone else.

"Okay, okay, I'm fine, don't listen to this guy's nonsense, who still has some faults in him? It's just a normal thing, so don't be too nervous. He stood with his hands in his hands and said slowly, "Besides, I'm not old now, and I'm not happy if you cry and put on a stinky face!" ”

Gu Huaiyuan immediately cried and laughed: "Then please take good care of yourself, and the son will send you rock sugar pear soup another day!" ”

"Hahaha, okay, the fifth child is out of the hall and in the kitchen, I haven't found it before." Gu Ji smiled, seeing that he was about to cough again, he hurriedly said, "I'm going to rest, you guys go back first." ”

"Yes, Father!"

When Gu Cong retreated, the palace people were slowly closing the door of the Heart Cultivation Hall to prevent His Majesty from blowing the wind, his footsteps paused slightly, and in the end he still turned his head and said to the man: "...... Please also take care of your health. ”

His voice was a little dry, and he looked a little nervous.

In the past, he didn't care much about this old thing, but now, somehow, when he saw the man's gray sideburns and decrepit face, his heart was so painful that he had to say it.

Before the door of the Heart Cultivation Hall was closed, he saw Gu Ji and said to him with a smile.

"It's really annoying the emperor."
