Zhang Shouyi originally didn't want to say it.

After all, this was Prince Chang'an's private matter, and he had promised the prince that day that he would forget about it once he walked out of that door and would never talk about it to anyone.

But Yuan Sicheng was very confident and said that the prince had offended His Majesty and was now being sent to the imperial mausoleum to be punished. He had to help the prince, so naturally he had to find out what had happened to the prince recently.

Zhang Shouyi didn't know about the prince's visit to the imperial mausoleum at first.

He just thought that the prince was still in the military camp at this time.

But today he privately inquired with his good brothers in the military camp outside Beijing, and found out that the prince had never returned since he left the military camp a few days ago.

Hearing him asking this, they immediately became nervous, fearing that something might have happened to the prince.

Afterwards, Zhang Shouyi went to the palace to inquire more.

Naturally, the people in the palace could not tell him the truth. They only said that the prince had been away for something recently. However, their faces all looked unhappy, and it was obvious that something bad had happened.

After all this, Zhang Shouyi became extremely anxious.

Only then did he get in touch with Yuan Yu again.

"What does the prince's punishment have to do with what happened that day?" At first, Zhang Shouyi still didn't want to say it.

He didn't understand what this had to do with the prince's punishment.

In fact, Yuan Yu was not sure at first.

But he has done a lot of research in the past two days and found nothing. This matter can be said to be the only breakthrough.

He knew what kind of person Gu Mingheng was.

This person would never get angry with others for no reason.

"Whether it's related or not, I have to listen to it to know for sure."

Seeing Zhang Shouyi's hesitation, Yuan Yu knew that Gu Mingheng must have said something beforehand, and it was normal that he didn't want to disobey Gu Mingheng's orders.

If possible, he didn't want to force Zhang Shouyi like this.

But Gu Mingheng was punished for no reason, and his aunt refused to tell him what had happened and just told him not to worry about it. Even the people in the palace were unaware of the situation and were still in a state of panic.

He couldn't just watch Gu Mingheng being imprisoned in the imperial mausoleum.

"I know you promised the prince, but now the prince is in solitary confinement for some unknown reason. If you really want to help the prince, tell me everything that happened that day, so that I can know how to help him."

He said so.

Zhang Shouyi didn't worry about it anymore.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, I'll tell you!"

However, when he spoke, he still said, "But I still think this matter has nothing to do with the prince being punished."

Although he said so, Zhang Shouyi did not hide the matter any longer and told Yuan Yu clearly about his conversation with Gu Mingheng that day.

After hearing what he said, Yuan Yu was also very surprised. He opened his eyes wide and asked, "Is this what made Gu Mingheng angry that day?"

He thought it was some government matter.

...I didn't expect it to be a matter between men and women?

How could this be?

And how come he didn’t know when Gu Mingheng found someone he liked?

"Yes, I was also surprised. I just said that that day, and the prince suddenly got furious. It was the first time I saw the prince so angry. I was really shocked."

Zhang Shouyi still feels very puzzled when he thinks of the scene that day.

But after all, it was a private matter concerning Prince Chang'an, so he naturally would not make too many comments or speculations behind his back. If Lord Yuan had not come to him today with the prince's safety, he would have kept it in his heart for the rest of his life.

After he finished speaking, he saw Yuan Yu frowning and remaining silent.

Knowing that this news was useless, he sighed and said, "As I just said, the punishment of the prince should have nothing to do with this matter. It is better to ask the prince directly. It happens that some of my former brothers are at the imperial mausoleum. I will find a way to go there and see if I can contact the prince."

Yuan Yu still didn't speak.

His brain continued to work.

The person you like...

Where does Gu Mingheng find the person he likes?

But Gu Mingheng's attitude was indeed strange.

The reason why he suddenly left the Princess's Mansion that day was also very strange...

He had clearly mentioned this before, but Gu Mingheng's reaction at that time was not that big.

Yuan Yu frowned and continued to think carefully.

He remembered that day when he went to find Gu Mingheng. Although Gu Mingheng said that he would get married, his expression was very strange. And this time... Originally, he was supposed to meet the girls from the Zhao and Lu families at the Qianqiu Banquet, but he didn't come this time.

When he entered the palace today, he met Eunuch An and heard about what he and his aunt had requested.

He had a vague feeling that Gu Mingheng's sudden punishment might really be related to this incident, but he had known Gu Mingheng for many years, so how could he have a crush on him?

What's more, according to your majesty's wishes.

If Gu Mingheng really has someone he likes, that would be the best thing. As long as that person is not the descendant of a criminal, Your Majesty will definitely agree.

But from what he knew about Gu Mingheng, there was no such woman around him.

Not to mention contact, this person has only Princess Changle in his mind, and he only wants to make up for Princess Changle...

Wait!

Princess Changle!

Yuan Yu's pupils suddenly contracted, and he felt that he might know something!

"Master Yuan? What's wrong with you?" Zhang Shouyi asked doubtfully when he saw Yuan Yu's grim expression.

Yuan Yu still said nothing.

He was still in great shock.

It was not until Zhang Shouyi called him again that Yuan Yu came to his senses: "...No, nothing is wrong."

He knew that he definitely didn't look like he was fine.

But at this moment, he didn't care to prevaricate with Zhang Shouyi: "I'm leaving first. I'll contact you if there is any result of this matter."

After Yuan Yu finished speaking, he stood up.

Zhang Shouyi quickly stood up and said, "Then what about the imperial mausoleum..."

"Don't go yet. We don't know what happened to the prince yet. Don't let him get you into trouble." Yuan Yu told Zhang Shouyi. Seeing Zhang Shouyi frown, knowing that he wanted to say it was okay, Yuan Yu raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "If you were alone, I wouldn't stop you, but you still have an old mother to take care of."

Hearing Yuan Yu say this, Zhang Shouyi's face changed slightly.

"Then please let me know if you have any news, Lord Yuan." He bowed to Yuan Yu.

Yuan Yu nodded to him.

Zhang Shouyi then felt relieved and respectfully escorted Yuan Yu out.

Yuan Yu did not stay either. After saying goodbye to Zhang Shouyi, he went straight out of the Zhang family's door.

Looking at the sky, Yuan Yu knew it was too late to go to the imperial mausoleum tonight. Just as he was about to suppress his anxiety and go home first, he saw his personal guard riding towards him in a hurry.

"master!"

"Why are you here suddenly? Didn't I ask you to keep an eye on the palace?" Yuan Yu frowned and asked, thinking of something, he suddenly asked: "But is there any movement in the palace?"

The guard did not dare to hide anything and replied truthfully: "The prince is back."

"Really?"

Yuan Yu was surprised.

He didn't bother to think about why Gu Mingheng suddenly came back, was it His Majesty's order or... He hurriedly stepped on the carriage: "Let's go to the palace!"

The carriage started all the way from Zhang's house and stopped at the Chang'an Palace.
