Gu Zhu was extremely reluctant, but her mother-in-law seemed to be a different person today. Even though she begged, she insisted. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and agree to it.

"Okay, I promise you that I will apologize to Zhao'er in person this time..."

Gu Zhu agreed reluctantly.

Qinhou Mansion.

"Your servant greets the eldest lady." Nanny Gu bowed to Gu Zhao with a smile.

"Madame Gu, please get up."

"Thank you, miss."

"Miss, I came here today on the orders of the old lady. I want to invite you to go to the Ningyuan Earl's Mansion to visit the second young lady... Madam promised that she would apologize to you in person tomorrow..."

Gu Zhao raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Grandmother Gu would be so forceful in demanding an apology from Gu Zhu. This was truly rare.

It was quite novel to see Zhu begging her.

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow."

Hearing that the eldest lady agreed, Nanny Gu felt relieved.

"Thank you, Miss. I will take my leave now."

"Madame Qin, please see Madame Gu off."

"Madame Gu, this way please."

In the evening, Gu Zhao talked about what happened today. Qin Chen heard his wife's words and the happiness in her tone, and he laughed.

“My wife is awesome.”

"I haven't found any favorable evidence yet. I must have Zhu divorced."

Gu Zhao said in a cold voice.

"Don't worry, daughter-in-law. I, your husband, have assigned more people to investigate your mother-in-law's matter. As long as I can find favorable evidence, I will definitely help you achieve your wish."

Hearing Qin Chen say this, Gu Zhao nodded and looked at Qin Chen with joy in his eyes.

"Are you tired these days in the camp outside Beijing?"

Qin Chen shook his head.

"Not tired."

"But I heard that your camp has a new deputy general who is against you in every way."

We have one less General Yuan and now have one more Lieutenant General Chen.

It is said that this Deputy General Chen was promoted by old Duke Feng, who was also one of the hereditary dukes of Daxia. Old Duke Feng was dismissed from office due to some things in previous years. Now Duke Feng is just a military general with an idle position, and he usually does some work in the Ministry of War.

But this Deputy General Chen is now in his forties. He had some conflicts with Lord Qin in the past and was later transferred to the northwest. He was transferred back by the emperor a few years ago.

I didn't expect that he would be sent to the camp outside Beijing.

Whose idea was this? Could it be the Emperor's idea again? Why was he so wary of Qin Chen?

Or is it that the princes want to win over my husband, but are also wary of him?

During these few months, Gu Zhao has become very familiar with the current situation of the princes.

Before the previous princes were crowned kings, Concubine Yang had fought fiercely with Concubine Li, Concubine Zhao and others, and now the fight has become even more intense.

But on the surface, the concubines would greet each other as sisters, as if they were all doing well. But in reality, they were fighting with each other while talking. Not only that, the eunuchs and palace maids of the concubines in the palace were also fighting with each other.

There were even some people who bribed the eunuchs and palace maids in the Empress Dowager's palace.

However, the concubines only dared to bribe those who were not so important. Of course, they wanted to bribe the eunuchs, maids and palace maids who were close to the Empress Dowager, but they did not succeed.

As the champion of the previous palace fight, the Empress Dowager is kind now, but she was also extremely powerful in the past. Otherwise, she would not have helped the Emperor to ascend the throne successfully.
