Even Chu Mengyang has been marching and fighting for many years, but he only has more guards than ordinary princes.

If he really wanted to imitate the emperor, the first problem he would face was the [-] imperial troops outside the imperial city.

Chu Mengyang's expression was a little ugly: "Where can I find so many people?"

Hearing this, Mr. Du smiled.

"Your Highness, there is no need to worry." Mr. Du leaned against Chu Mengyang's ear, and slowly expressed his plan in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Previously, my subordinates always thought that you still had a chance with the emperor to bring down the prince. It can be seen from the emperor's current attitude that even if the prince is accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason, the emperor would not want to touch him."

"In this way, we can only change our plan, which is to change the original plan aimed at the Pei family and the prince to only aim at the prince to win over the Pei family."

Before Mr. Du finished speaking, Chu Mengyang interrupted him impatiently: "Mr. Du, I know you are extremely smart, but you should know the attitude of the Pei family! They don't help anyone! See you every day I don't feel good about it! Then Gu Ning is an idiot who only knows how to look at his face! This king can neither please the princess, nor make Gu Ning like me. No matter which way, I can't go!"

Speaking of this, Chu Mengyang was angry and anxious.

After bumping into a wall in front of Princess Dachang and Old General Pei, he turned his attention to Gu Ning, but that woman Gu Ning...she only likes good-looking people!

Although he claimed to be handsome and unrestrained, his face was useless against Xie Yan's appearance!In Gu Ning's view, the prince's noble status cannot compare to the handsome Xie Yan!

"Your Highness, don't worry." Mr. Du said calmly as before, "The Pei family has been loyal to the emperor for generations, so naturally they will not have any contact with the prince, but you have a huge advantage over the prince!"

"You mean..."

"What the crown prince did to the county lord of Changning, and what the empress did to the princess of Anyang, do you think the Pei family will still stand on the side of the prince? It must be for this reason that the emperor wants to send the lord of Changning to the county. Go get married and disintegrate the power of the Pei family!"

"Although the Pei family is loyal to the emperor, they always have to consider the future of the family. Between you and the prince, they can only choose you!"

Mr. Du's words rekindled hope in Chu Mengyang's dead heart.

He looked at Mr. Du with bright eyes: "Then we and Yan Yu..."

"Prince Yan Six, you don't need to worry. He can't stay in Chu State for too long. Even if he is interested in Changning County Lord, the Pei family will never let Changning County Lord go and get married!"

After hearing the words, Chu Mengyang nodded, he thought about it in his heart, and he admired Mr. Du's words even more: "Fortunately, you are here, otherwise, I really don't know what to do! "

Mr. Du smiled modestly: "Your Highness is overrated."

Chu Mengyang's mood was obvious to the naked eye, but he was happy for a while, Mr. Du said again: "Your Highness, if you are so happy after the emperor said those words, it will make the emperor suspicious, why don't you Just like when you just returned to the mansion, pretending to be annoyed, it's best to have a few more arguments with the prince at the banquet tonight."

In an instant, Chu Mengyang's smiling face froze.

After a long time, he nodded slowly; "Don't worry, I've written it all down!"

Seeing this, Mr. Du secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to leave, he heard Chu Mengyang behind him ask, "Can't we just get rid of Chu Yunyi?"

"The only grown-up princes left are me and Chu Yunyi. Once Chu Yunyi dies, it can only be me..."

"Your Highness, since ancient times, rivers of blood have flowed in the competition for the crown. If you are a woman's benevolence, it will only harm you, the Song family, and your cronies."

"As long as the emperor is still alive, he can let anyone sit on the throne! Even people like Xie Yan who have no royal blood can easily sit on the throne. You are rightly calling the shots!"

Chu Mengyang moved his mouth, and just about to speak, he swallowed those words back under Mr. Du's unemotional gaze.

He nodded and sighed imperceptibly.

"I understand."

……

"Have you all heard about it? The second prince and the prince are brothers... cough cough!"

"We have known this earth-shattering news for a long time! By the way, I saw the second prince lying on the crown prince with my own eyes!"

"Who would have thought that the Second Prince and the Crown Prince would be at odds with each other on weekdays, but secretly..."

Before the dinner party started, Qingliang Hall was extremely lively.

Among the people present, without exception, they were discussing the same two things.

"I also saw the second prince and the crown prince going to the Taiji Hall. I don't know what the emperor said, but the two started arguing at the gate of the Taiji Hall. The second prince's face is not very good!"

As the ladies talked, their faces were full of gossip.

In fact, they all know that the scene in the Longevity Palace today can only be calculated by others. The prince and the second prince's romantic affairs are all related to women. When did there ever be a man?There have never been any rumors of the two having a habit of breaking sleeves before.

It's just that such a calculation is really eye-opening, and it's impossible not to focus on this matter.

While they were having a heated discussion, they saw a figure walking in from the door.

It's Gu Qingqiu!

In an instant, the bustling Qingliang Hall instantly became silent.

Gu Qingqiu just woke up, when she came out of the East Palace, she felt many gazes, she didn't think about it at that time, but when she just stepped into the Qingliang Palace, the eyes of these wives and officials looked at her...

She clenched her hands subconsciously, gritted her teeth and asked Ban Xia beside her: "What happened? Why do they look at me like this?"

Even if they caught Gu Ning messing around with two men, they shouldn't look at themselves!They should look at Gu Ning!The person who did the scandal was Gu Ning!

But these gazes are the same as those at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet... pity, disdain, and disgust should all be directed at Gu Ning!

Gu Qingqiu panicked immediately, but no matter what she thought, even if she racked her brains, she didn't know why these people looked at her like this.

She walked all the way to her seat, seeing that Gu Ning's seat beside her was empty, and even the Eldest Princess never showed up, a look of color flashed across her eyes.

But soon, she realized something was wrong.

"Where is Xiaoyue?" Gu Qingqiu gritted his teeth, "Didn't you tell her to go back to Qingliang Palace after the matter is settled?"

Facing Gu Qingqiu's question, Ban Xia couldn't answer a word, she hesitated for a long time, but could only utter a few short syllables.

"Trash!" Gu Qingqiu cursed coldly, "Go out and look for it!"

However, before Ban Xia left half a step, a group of people appeared at the door.

Gu Ning!

Gu Qingqiu's eyes widened instantly, and he looked towards the door in disbelief.

How could she be here?How could she dare to show herself after being seen in such an ugly state?

Gu Ning was not the only one who appeared at the door. When Gu Ning walked in, Xie Yan also walked in.

At this moment, the fear in Gu Qingqiu's heart reached its peak, and she quickly thought of Xiaoyue's disappearance.

Could it be... the plan failed!

She opened her mouth, but found that she could no longer make a sound, she could only watch Gu Ning say goodbye to Xie Yan with a smile, and then sat beside her.

At this time, Gu Ning looked at her with a smile: "The princess must be very curious, right?"

"Why didn't that palace lady named Xiaoyue appear as you agreed?" Gu Ning's peachy eyes were curved like a new moon, with a dazzling light in them.

Gu Qingqiu didn't dare to look at her beautiful bright eyes.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Gu Qingqiu said sharply, "Could it be that you haven't sobered up yet?"

When Gu Ning heard this, she shook her head with a smile. She looked at Gu Qingqiu and said with pity: "I really pity you. You only wanted to plot against others and exhausted all your efforts to set up such a situation. It's a pity that In the end it was still empty.”

"You know all about it." Gu Qingqiu simply smashed the jar, stared at Gu Ning's face jealously, and paused every word, "I just hate you to the bone! As long as there is a slight possibility, I will not let it go!"

"You were lucky enough to escape this time, but what about next time?" Gu Qingqiu sneered, "Can you escape next time? Unless you kill me right now! Otherwise, as long as I am still alive, you will Watch out for me day and night!"

Her expression was ferocious, and the eyes that looked at Gu Ning seemed to be poisoned.

But Gu Ning was not in a hurry, half-supporting his chin, with a smile on his face, and a brisk tone: "How could I kill you? I have accumulated good deeds all my life, and I am reluctant to step on an ant to death. How can I kill people? ?”

"Stop pretending!" Gu Qingqiu sneered, "It's just the two of us, why are you pretending?"

"I didn't pretend." Gu Ning said with a light smile, "What I said is the truth, I don't like blood, your life, someone will do it for you."

"Is that your dog named Xie Yan?" Gu Qingqiu sarcastically asked.

"No, no, no." Gu Ning shook his head, and smiled brightly at Gu Qingqiu, "It's your favorite Crown Prince, he will finish you for me."

Gu Qingqiu's first reaction was that Gu Ning was talking nonsense, but Gu Ning's firm tone made her suspicious.

After this incident, Gu Ning suddenly turned sideways and approached her: "The Crown Princess has slept for so long, I'm afraid she still doesn't know what happened in the Longevity Palace?"

"What's the matter?" Gu Qingqiu pretended to be calm, but an ominous premonition had emerged in his heart.

Under her gaze, the corners of Gu Ning's lips twitched slightly, and every word paused so that Gu Qingqiu could hear clearly.

"Today, under the witness of the empress dowager and many wives and ladies, His Royal Highness the crown prince and the second prince are hanging out naked on the bed in the Longevity Palace! Now everyone is saying, why didn't they see that the two of them have the habit of breaking their sleeves before?" Woolen cloth?"

This sentence, like a thunderclap on the ground, shocked Gu Qingqiu to lose the ability to speak.
