Gu Qi knew that Lu Yao had some knowledge in business, but he didn't know Lu Yao's true ability.

But even so, he is still quite cautious.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to hide it from Lu Yao for so many years.

He often asked Pu Jiaojiao to change her living place.

The places he frequents are also different.

Therefore, even if Lu Yao wanted to check, it would be difficult to find out in a short time.

As far as he knew, in just over half a month after Pu Jiaojiao was exposed, Gu Qi had changed the residence of his mistress five times.

It was this kind of hiding and dodging that really made Pu He angry and jealous.

Originally, he might just want to be better than Gu Shuyan, and might even want to get a good ranking in the imperial examination so that Gu Qi could clear his mother's name.

But these days of hiding have made him mentally abnormal.

Judging from his behavior today, he already wants to kill Gu Shuyan!

Wow, you know what, this is really a big show!

Gu Shuyan looked very conflicted.

He really wanted to meet Princess Showa, but if he ruined the princess's reputation...

"Actually, it's not that I don't want to go, but if it affects the princess's reputation..." Gu Shuyan frowned. He was really worried about this issue.

He didn't like the princess. If it affected her reputation, the princess would probably marry him herself...

No! Absolutely not!

"What's wrong? It affects my sister Showa's reputation. Then why don't you just marry my sister Showa? It's no big deal." Yue Yangrui said as a matter of course: "You are worthy of my sister Showa."

As he spoke, he squinted his eyes to observe Gu Shuyan's reaction.

He had a rare chance to play a trick on his elder brother, so how could he miss it?

"That won't do. Absolutely not."

Gu Shuyan stood up in an instant, with panic evident on his face.

"No, no, this is absolutely not possible."

He failed several times in a row, which showed that he was very scared.

"Why not?" Yue Yangrui suppressed the smile in his heart and continued to ask.

"Princess Showa is such a beautiful lady, how can I dare to get involved with her? What's more, Princess Showa is suitable for someone better, not me. Even if Her Highness Princess likes me, I still don't like her!"

"This kind of forced relationship will never be happy, and I cannot bring happiness to the princess."

It seemed that Gu Shuyan was becoming incoherent.

Yue Yangrui knew that he couldn't tease him any more, otherwise, once his elder brother knew his identity, he would definitely not let him off easily.

He hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, Master Gu, I won't joke with you anymore. In my newly purchased mansion, there is a secret passage leading to Princess Showa's mansion. If you follow me there, no one will know that you have been to Princess Showa's mansion. Naturally, no one will say anything that will affect your and Princess Showa's reputation."

"Really?"

Gu Shuyan's eyes lit up.

However, he was still a little hesitant: "Well, why is there a secret passage from General Yue's mansion to Princess Zhaohe's mansion?"

Are these two people too close?

They should be in a monarch-subject relationship.

Even if we are sworn brothers, it still seems a little unreasonable!

"Oh, isn't this the good relationship between siblings?" Yue Yangrui smiled: "What's more, just like what you are worried about, Master Gu, I am also afraid of affecting Sister Zhaohe's reputation. This way, it will be more convenient. After all, you know that people's words are scary!"

Gu Shuyan felt as if he was convinced, but at the same time, he felt as if something was not right.

But yes, he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"That's what General Yue said."

Since he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it.

Just do as Yue Yangrui arranges.

Anyway, given Yue Yangrui's identity, there's no reason to really deal with him, right?

His most important task now is to resolve the Puhe issue as soon as possible.

It is best to do so before the palace examination begins.

Otherwise, if he delays any further, his mother Lu Yao might also be implicated.

It’s okay if he gets into trouble, but the original owner’s mother cannot be implicated.

After all, my achievements today are inseparable from the help and environment that Lu Yao has provided over the years.

He could never forget his roots.

"Let's go then."

"it is good."

The two left the restaurant, and Yue Yangrui took Gu Shuyan directly to his newly purchased mansion.

The new place he bought was not far from Fu Rong's Prime Minister's Mansion, and they both had secret passages.

It can be said that, except for Prince Ruyang’s Mansion, which has no secret passages, other people’s mansions are all connected to each other by secret passages.

Mi Qingxue once expressed her dissatisfaction with this.

However, there is nothing we can do about it.

After all, Mi Qingxue lived with Prince Ruyang and Princess Ruyang. If she dug a secret passage in Prince Ruyang's mansion, it would be easily discovered.

Their identities, which are different from those of people of this era, cannot be known by people of this world.

Otherwise, there is a high possibility that the whole family will be arrested and tortured!

In contrast, Mi Qingxue could go to Princess Showa's Mansion whenever she had nothing to do.

It won't have any impact.

The two sisters have a good relationship, and Princess Ruyang and Prince Ruyang are also happy to see this.

At least, their daughter likes to go out now, right?

It’s already very good!

Yue Yangrui did not hide anything from Gu Shuyan.

There is nothing to hide.

After all, he is my elder brother.

If you can't even trust your own relatives, then what else can you trust?

Think about it, this is a very sad thing!

Gu Shuyan looked at Yue Yangrui opening the secret passage to Princess Showa's mansion with great skill, and felt a little dazed.

He thought Yue Yangrui said it deliberately, but he didn't expect that there really was a secret passage!

When he reached the middle of the secret passage, he discovered that there were actually two paths.

Yue Yangrui chose the path on the left and continued walking.

He couldn't help but be curious: "General Yue, where does the secret passage on the right lead to?"

He thought, since Yue Yangrui took him into his secret passage, they could be considered friends.

However, if Yue Yangrui didn't tell him, he wouldn't care and would just ask casually.

Yue Yangrui also said very frankly: "To Prime Minister Fu's residence."

"Prime Minister Fu's residence?"

Gu Shuyan was even more surprised: "General Yue, you and Lord Fu Xiang are also very close friends?"

Fu Rong and Fu Xiang are his idols!

She is the person he has always admired and wanted to be like.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have worked so hard to get the top spot in the exam.

The purpose is to be able to be an official in the court like Prime Minister Fu, to achieve great things and do something for the people!
