Section 5: Rumors

Before Prime Minister Gu could react, Gonggong Ma had already placed the holy decree in his hand, and left with a large bag full of gold leaves.

Prime Minister Gu looked at the holy decree in his hand, and then looked at Gonggong Ma who left, feeling cramped and uneasy.

The emperor was determined to marry Chu Nuan to King Han, but they didn't agree, it seems that the battle between the emperor and King Han before was much more serious than he imagined.

In the study, Prime Minister Gu Cheng looked at the Holy Decree in a daze, and the fifth aunt came over with a bowl of white fungus soup, and said softly, "Master, I'm still thinking about the Holy Decree."

"Yes.

"If you offend King Han if you accept the order, and offend the emperor if you don't accept the order, no matter which side it is, he can't afford to offend.

The fifth aunt rolled her eyes and said leisurely, "I heard that King Han was assassinated not long ago, which led to the recurrence of the old poison, and now it can't be suppressed, I'm afraid that I won't be able to survive this year, and the emperor is in the prime of his youth, and he married the most favored princess of the Chu Emperor as a concubine, and the power is rising, if you have to offend one person, depending on the concubine's body, it is better to offend the King of Han, after all, no matter how powerful he is in the world, he is only a short-lived ghost."

"How could I never have known this, but King Han has a heavy army in the world, if he really kills the Prime Minister's Mansion, I am afraid that the Prime Minister's Mansion will not be able to resist at all......"

"Then the lord is going to be on the side of the Han King?"

Gu Chengxiang didn't want to think about it, and shook his head directly, "Of course not, King Han's temperament is uncertain, even if I take refuge in him, he may not be able to protect me, and ......" And he didn't have that life to protect him.

If the Prime Minister's Mansion wants to go on for thousands of generations, it has to rely on the current Son of Heaven.

The fifth aunt has been by Gu Chengxiang's side for many years, and she has long understood Gu Chengxiang's thoughts.

She smiled, full of amorous feelings, "In this case, why don't you completely stand on the emperor's side, the emperor is no longer the emperor of the year, as long as the master is determined, the emperor is at the time of employing people, and he will not treat us badly."

"You're right, since you always have to offend someone, then stand firm.

Although most of the soldiers and horses of the Night Country are in the hands of the God of War Han Wangye, General Xiao also has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands.

The Xiao family has been loyal and patriotic for generations, although the two do not help each other now, but if they really want to fight, General Xiao should be on the emperor's side.

"Master, the concubine thinks that you can make a proposal to the emperor and let the third lady enter the Royal Academy to study.

The third lady will soon be the princess of Han, and it is always beneficial and harmless for her to learn more things, and it can also show the emperor's respect for the Han king.

Prime Minister Gu carefully pondered the words of the fifth aunt and roughly understood what she meant.

The Royal Academy is the highest academy in the Night Kingdom, and it has always been only the children of the Pope's descendants and heroes of great merit, and it is impossible for ordinary people to enter it.

In the Night Country, everyone is proud to be able to study at the Royal Academy.

His second daughter Gu Chuyun was sent to the Royal Academy because of her poetry and songs, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and until now many ministers in the court and China are still envious of him, and he has been proud for a long time.

Can......

His third daughter is illiterate, she can't read a single big character, she entered the Royal Academy, and it is undoubtedly a shame to face so many talented women, not to mention that she still has a disgusting ugly face.

The holy decree has been given, and she is already the princess of Han, so what she has lost is equivalent to the face of the king of Han.

If you talk to the emperor, the emperor will be happy and praise him.

And he is equivalent to completely tearing his face with King Han.

Prime Minister Gu sighed leisurely, hoping that he was right to choose to stand on the emperor's side.

"If Lan'er is half as smart as you, she won't lose her innocence.

The fifth aunt buried her head in Prime Minister Gu Cheng's arms, and said coquettishly, "Lan'er is still young, and she was framed by someone because she didn't think about everything, but fortunately, not many people know about this matter, as long as she hides it well, no one will know about Lan'er's loss of innocence."

The concubine will teach her well in the future, and I hope that the master will never be discouraged by her.

Gu Chengxiang was full of worries and hugged the fifth aunt tightly.
