Xiao Yanlin hurried back, and sent a message to the secret guards, asking them to dig out the gold again.

The dark guards were confused, but their obedience and loyalty to Xiao Yanlin were engraved in their bones, and although they felt puzzled, they still did it.

When Xiao Yanlin returned to the Hou Mansion, he found that Gu Baiyu had woken up.

"Why did you wake up so early?"

Gu Baiyu leaned on the head of the bed, her eyebrows frowned slightly: "I have something in my heart, and I can't sleep well." ”

"Don't worry, my father-in-law said that if it really doesn't work, I will take the holy decree and tell the old man to return to his hometown, and Yi'er will get his grandson."

He sat down beside Gu Baiyu, his big hand gently caressed Gu Baiyu's lower abdomen, and a trace of fierceness flashed in his drooping eyes.

In the past, he didn't bother to fight for anything, because he was alone and didn't care, but now he has someone in his heart who wants to protect, if someone really dares to hurt the person he protects, he doesn't mind letting everyone know his strength!

Early the next morning, Prime Minister Gu Cheng poked this matter out in the early court, and the entire court was in an uproar!

Recently, because of the affairs in the northwest, the emperor has always had a mystery in his mind, and now when he hears such news, he only feels extremely irritable in his heart.

"The surname Liu is your protégé, what's going on with this money! Call him here! ”

This willow pillar official position is very small, and he is not even qualified to go to the court, but because of some rumors in Kyoto, the emperor has an impression of him.

At the end, he said, "The gold is buried in the geography of the vegetables you planted, and you really don't know about this?" ”

Prime Minister Gu Cheng said generously: "Of course it doesn't matter, but the minister also feels that this matter is a big matter, so he didn't tell him in advance, but came directly to show His Majesty." ”

Prime Minister Gu's move was too sudden, and he didn't give the second prince a chance to prepare at all, and he hadn't reacted until this moment!

What Liu Zhuzi did was indeed instructed by him.

In fact, he has been tired of looking down on Prime Minister Gu for a long time.

Prime Minister Gu Cheng's status above the court is not trivial, he has been trying to win him over, but Prime Minister Gu not only does not get on his ship, but even opposes him everywhere! That's when he came up with such a plan.

And this matter, he actually didn't plan to poke it out so early, he just thought that when the emperor was old, when he and the prince competed, if Gu Chengxiang didn't know each other and went to help the prince, then he would reverse black and white, so that Gu Chengxiang would be ruined and his future would not be guaranteed.

However, poking this thing out now completely disrupted his rhythm.

This time is not right, there is a big problem with this time!

Sure enough, Prime Minister Gu Cheng spoke: "Your Majesty, after all, this matter is related to the old minister, in order to avoid suspicion, let's let someone investigate." ”

In fact, if there is no mistake in the affairs of the northwest, the second prince will definitely take this opportunity to take over the case.

And in his previous life, which he didn't know, the second prince did exactly that

He was angry because of the marriage of the Gu family's daughter, and because of Gu Chengxiang's stubbornness, so he made a move, when he was innocent in front of the emperor, he asked for an investigation into the matter, no one could object, he slandered him, and Gu Chengxiang was also exiled......

And now, because of Gu Baiyu's awakening, many things have not developed according to the plot of the previous life, the current second prince, the matter in the northwest not only did not get the sweetness, but also caused a fish, and the matter of Gu Prime Minister is exactly a similar problem, unless the emperor has a brain disease, it is impossible for him to investigate this matter.

The emperor thought for a moment, and before the second prince could speak, Zuo Lingfeng suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, it's better to let the ministers take over this matter, right?" ”

The Emperor thought for a moment, and actually agreed to this proposal.

There is no other reason, Zuo Lingfeng was imprisoned before, and it was later found out that it was nothing, the emperor appreciated this young man, so in that matter, he always felt that he owed something, and now Zuo Lingfeng wants to take this errand, he has no direct relationship with Gu Chengxiang, it seems to be quite suitable?

Zuo Lingfeng took over the errand and added: "The minister was almost slandered, so he knows too well what it feels like to be slandered, and he will never let the person with a heart slander the meritorious minister, please rest assured, the minister will definitely investigate to the end!" ”

The emperor became more and more satisfied, nodded and said, "Then I will work hard for you." ”

In this way, before the second prince could think of a countermeasure, Prime Minister Gu's matter was finally decided.

By the time he got to the next dynasty, the two princes hadn't realized that what they had been planning for so long would make it empty like this, and even if they didn't do it, they would be embarrassed again!

And Xiao Yan came to that, and walked towards Zuo Lingfeng after going down: "Thank you for today's events." ”

Zuo Lingfeng smiled: "Don't, I was quite surprised at the time, but I knew what you wanted me to do when you gave me a look, and you are really ...... You don't say anything about such a big thing in advance. ”

Xiao Yanlin smiled: "You are such a smart person, you must be able to understand my mind, and my father-in-law's affairs will be Lord Lao Zuo." ”

He said "father-in-law" instead of Prime Minister Gu, and he was clearly showing weakness and begging for help.

Zuo Lingfeng waved his hand: "No, I was caught in Dali Temple before, thanks to you in advance, otherwise even if I can get rid of my guilt in the end, I will not be able to suffer from flesh and skin." ”

What Zuo Lingfeng said is not an exaggeration at all, those torture instruments in Dali Temple are all chilling, and he is basically not injured, you can imagine how much effort Xiao Yanlin has put in to protect him behind him.

Zuo Lingfeng thought for a moment, and then said, "Are you sure that Prime Minister Gu is fine?" ”

Xiao Yanlin raised his eyebrows: "Do you think that if Uncle Yue wants to make money, he can see the point that Liu Zhuzi prepared for him?" is still so blatant, he almost posted a sentence on the gold that this is the evidence of Gu Chengxiang's crime. ”

Zuo Lingfeng thought about it for a while, and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I see what Your Majesty means, and I don't doubt it, I didn't arrest anyone, I just let me go to Prime Minister Gu Cheng to ask clearly, I will start from Liu Zhuzi, and I will definitely help you arrest the person behind this!" You should take good care of your sister-in-law at home. ”

"You got it?"

Zuo Lingfeng nodded: "I heard what my sister said, she originally wanted to go to play with her sister-in-law these days, but she was afraid that she would not seriously hurt her sister-in-law, so she didn't dare to go." ”

"It's okay, now that the fetus is stable, let her come to the house more, your sister-in-law can't go out these days, and she is telling me that she is bored."

"That's a good feeling, let her go in the afternoon."

When I returned to the Hou Mansion, I had just entered the main gate when I saw Gu Baiyu pacing in the courtyard.

Seeing Xiao Yanlin coming back, Gu Baiyu's eyes lit up: "Master Hou is back?" What do you think? ”

Xiao Yanlin said what happened in the court today, and Gu Baiyu felt relieved.

"It seems that Your Majesty trusts Daddy very much, and the second prince is now anxious, and it is estimated that he has no time to intervene, Lord Zuo has a good relationship with us, will he not let Daddy suffer......"

Speaking of this, Gu Baiyu's eyes turned red.

In her previous life, because of her repeated tolerance and lack of clear knowledge, her family suffered, and this tragedy has not been repeated in this life.

Regardless of the reason for her rebirth, whether the world is true or not, or just a story written by someone else, she wants to keep her family.

It's okay, it's okay, in this life, it's still too late......

Xiao Yanlin looked at her as if she was stuck in some bad memory, and gently held her hand: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." By the way, Miss Zuo said that she came to see you in the afternoon, if you don't want to see outsiders, I will let you refuse. ”

Gu Baiyu looked in a bad mood, and he was worried.

Gu Baiyu quickly put away the expression on his face: "Let her come, it is appropriate to have a good relationship with their brother and sister at this time, and besides, the friendship of the women in the back house has nothing to do with the previous dynasty, and no one can say anything." ”

Xiao Yanlin saw that she had adjusted, so he agreed, "Okay, let her accompany you in the afternoon." ”

At the same time, after the second prince returned home, he was so anxious that he was about to get angry.

"This northwest matter has not yet come to a conclusion, how can the person surnamed Liu suddenly have a mess?!"

The people under his hands were silent and didn't dare to say anything.

Only Mu touched his gray beard and said, "If the second prince really can't now, you might as well ask the second miss of the Gu family." ”

The second prince frowned: "She is a backhouse woman, what does she know?" ”

"This is a mistake, the old man once said that the two daughters of the Gu family have very peculiar personalities, and they are destined to be entangled and immortal in this life, maybe she can have a way."

Now, the second prince can only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor: "Let her come over!" ”
