Rebirth Strategy: Please let me go

"Trash! A bunch of trash!" Gu Honghao swept the objects on the table in front of him, his whole face twisted and cold.

Because of the Taiping incident, he was filled with anger again. He returned to the mansion to spy and reported that his stronghold in Lipu on the outskirts of the city had been taken away by the Black Armored Guards. It was his largest intelligence stronghold. Who leaked the news?

"Your Highness, please don't be angry. It's just a stronghold. I have good news here. I guarantee that Your Highness will be overjoyed after hearing it."

Bai Shao stood next to Gu Honghao with a smile on his face and a look of flattery on his face.

Gu Honghao glanced at him with a ruthless look on his face: "What's the matter?"

Bai Shao chuckled and said: "My spies came to report that the emperor actually sent His Highness the Crown Prince to petition the north. The mountains are high and the roads are far away, with only 10,000 soldiers and horses."

Gu Honghao glared at him: "This matter is not secret. It has been spread throughout the court, so why is it so strange?"

Bai Shao came closer to him and couldn't hide the calculating look in his eyes: "The prince is weak, and the emperor's beloved son is eager to help him establish a firm foothold in the palace. According to the information that I have inquired about, this visit to the north by His Royal Highness the prince is not really a visit to the north. I wonder if Your Highness has heard about the matter between His Royal Highness and the An family?"

The fact that the Protectorate's Palace was sealed off and that Gu Qingchen was mistreated in the An family was well-known in Kyoto. There were countless rumors in the public, so it was natural that he had heard about it.

"I have news. It is from the mouth of the servants of the Duhu Mansion. The reason why His Highness the Crown Prince was whipped to serious injuries by the An family is because His Highness the Crown Prince is a barbarian spy!"

As soon as the word "barbarian spy" came out, Gu Honghao was shocked and his eyes lit up. He walked around in circles a few times and then shook his head: "This is not credible."

"His Highness, listen to what I have said." Bai Shao waved his folding fan and continued: "I didn't believe it at first, but the jailer of the Yamen said that when he whipped His Highness the Crown Prince that night, he did hear what An Ruhe said about barbarians, so he agreed. .

Your Majesty, think about it, the Prince was very popular with An Ruhe in the early days. Many people in the school saw An Ruhe leading him in and out. If it weren't for something that was intolerable to the An family, why would An Ruhe beat someone seriously? I heard On the day when the prince was recalled to the palace, he was stabbed in the heart by An Ruhe. How much hatred would it take to kill him like this? "

"The emperor said this time that he was sending His Highness the Crown Prince to visit the north to win the support of the people. In fact, he was going to meet with the barbarians. After His Highness the Crown Prince regained his identity, he intended to cut off contact with the barbarians. According to the information, the barbarian leader wrote a letter to the emperor, leading 50,000 troops. Requesting negotiations, His Royal Highness went here this time to resolve this matter."

Gu Honghao's sword eyebrows were already frowning at Bai Shao's words, and his joy was beyond words: "Reliable?"

Bai Shao nodded: "The Emperor has been looking for the Crown Prince for so long. The An family has offended the Emperor and the Crown Prince by severely injuring His Highness. The military talisman has been withdrawn. Presumably, the Emperor did it to protect His Highness the Crown Prince. The outcome for the An family will not be good. .

According to what I said, Your Highness might as well go see An Ruhe. Although they do not have military symbols and military power, An Ruhe and An Jinran are two fierce generals. They must be as anxious as ants on a hot pot now. If Your Highness extends an olive branch, There is no reason why they should not accept it. "

Bai Shaoxiao's cunning, Gu Honghao's eyes flashed with a dark light in his hand, and he already had a plan in mind.

An Ruhe changed into his court clothes and took the written indictment. Mrs. Qu was standing by to arrange the hem of his clothes and straighten his hair crown. With tears in his eyes, he turned around to wipe them from time to time.

"Madam, please don't shed tears. Your Majesty is merciful and will not do anything to me."

Mrs. Qu choked up and nodded: "Husband, you must come back safely."

An Ruhe put his arm around her and patted her shoulder, resting his chin on top of her head, and said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry."

He said he was relieved, but in fact, An Ruhe had no idea about this. If the emperor really intended to attack An Jia, even if An Ruhe lost his head, nothing could be saved.

So he told Mrs. Qu: "I left a letter of divorce on the desk. If anything happens to me, you can sign it and seal it, and go back to Qu's house."

Mrs. Qu cried harder and harder: "Husband, do you want me to be that person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"

An Ruhe palmed her shoulder: "I have made up my mind on this matter, and Madam will listen to me."

After saying that, An Ruhe turned around resolutely and strode out. Qu wanted to catch up, but her feet slipped. Yang's mother quickly caught her with quick eyes and hands.

"Madam, the master is right. If something happens, this is the only way to protect the young master and the young lady."

Otherwise, the young lady and the young master will be the children of criminals for the rest of their lives, and they will be burdened with infamy for the rest of their lives.

Mrs. Qu cried silently, and her steps to catch up stopped. She never knew, but if she really got to that point, how could she survive.

Since the An family is currently under lockdown, if you want to enter the palace, someone from the palace must come to help.

But instead of waiting for the person who was waiting in the palace, an unexpected person was waiting for him.

Looking at the man standing with his hands behind his back in the study, An Ruhe immediately took two steps back alertly: "I wonder who you are? Is there anything wrong with breaking into my An's house without permission?"

The man slowly turned around, revealing his true face.

When An Ruhe saw this man, he immediately clasped his fists and saluted: "I have met the prince."

Gu Honghao said with a smile on his face: "General An, long time no see. How are you?"

........

The Duhufu's carriage galloped on the street.

An Ruhe was sitting in the carriage, beside him was the black-armored guard who had become famous recently.

He looked hesitant and undecided, and he was already moved when he thought of the conditions offered by the man in the study.

At first, the former prince's act of giving way to a worthy person made people all over the world praise him for his noble virtues. Compared with Emperor Yuan'an's subsequent succession, he, the prince with a legitimate reputation, was more popular among the people.

Your Majesty is in frail health, and the Crown Prince is too young to hold such a big responsibility. Before anything happened to the An family, he already knew that most of the important ministers in the court had secretly defected, but he only heard about it and never confirmed it.

Now it seems that there is no need to confirm. The other party's behavior has already shown that he is 50% sure. If there is no support behind him, how can he show up to see him.

The other party knows that An Jia is currently riding a tiger and is in a difficult situation. He may be demoted or resign at worst. No matter which one of them, it will be a disaster for An Jia.

He said that if he helped him, he would be allowed to settle down and become a founding hero of the country when the matter was completed. Such an attractive offer was indeed something he could not refuse now.

But An Ruhe said that he should think about it first, after all, rebellion... is not a trivial matter.

The carriage gradually entered the palace, and the young eunuch on the side reminded him: "General An, don't be cautious. Before meeting His Majesty, you need to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is General An's adopted son. Why should General An look like this?"

An Ruhe heard that he was going to see Gu Qingchen and raised his head: "Chen'er wants to see me?"

This was unexpected.

The young eunuch smiled slightly: "Your Highness, the Prince, prepared fragrant tea in the palace early in the morning and waited for the general to go."

An Ruhe stiffened, early in the morning? How did he know that he was going to see him today?

The news was delivered to the palace in the afternoon. If it was early in the morning...he would have known that he would come today.

At this moment, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on An Jinran's forehead. She temporarily put away her unwanted thoughts and prepared to meet Gu Qingchen.
