The scumbags all want to turn back

Since Gu Zhaoting came to the palace, in his memory, Gu Ye has never lost his composure like now.Gu Ye had always given him the impression of being depressed and depressed. He acted like those TV dramas about the aristocracy and the upper class advertised, not easily revealing his emotions.He seems to be wearing a melancholy mask, he seems not interested in anything, he doesn't seem to be happy at any time, his mood swings are controlled within a very narrow range, and he never crosses the line. Indifferent to lifeless, he would at most get a little red eye circles on a very personal and emotional occasion, but it was never like this, crying so sadly that his whole body was trembling.

Although Gu Zhaoting couldn't see the sad face of his nominal father, because he kept his head down deeply and blocked Gu Zhaoting's sight with his hands, his shoulders shook violently, and his whole body seemed to be in the cold wind. The last dead leaf on a dry branch, if the wind is stronger, it will fall.His breathing was disordered and rapid, and the veins on the back of his hand were tense, which made his beautiful and slender hand like a work of art look hideous like a ghost crawling out of hell.

Gu Zhaoting was winking and asked everyone in the room to go out when Gu Ye lowered his head. He kept silent in the face of Gu Ye's gaffe, even though he was very curious why Gu Ye suddenly asked about Ning Yuanchen However, he didn't ask a single extra word, just quietly waiting for him to calm down.

Although it seemed that his emotions collapsed in an instant, Gu Ye still packed up his emotions very quickly. He pressed his handkerchief to his eyes and left the camera. He sat back half a minute later. Except for a few bloodshot eyes, he could hardly see No, he just cried.

"You and this Ning Yuanchen are lovers and care about it." Gu Ye asked kindly, "How is the progress now?"

Gu Zhaoting was a little embarrassed and said, "It's okay."

Gu Ye nodded, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Has the queen seen him?"

"It was a long time ago. We met in the hallway of the restaurant."

"What's the queen's attitude towards him?" Gu Ye asked eagerly.

Gu Zhaoting paused for a moment.Gu Ye's behavior was a bit strange. After all, it wasn't the first day he knew that he liked Ning Yuanchen. However, he had never shown the slightest interest in Ning Yuanchen before. He even said that he wanted to bring Ning Yuanchen into the palace to meet him and his grandma. , were rejected by Gu Ye.

Could it be that father, like Leopardoan and Shen Luojun who appeared out of nowhere, were also interested in Yuan Chen?

Alarm bells rang in Gu Zhaoting's heart.He said calmly: "Mother didn't say anything, we just said hello."

"Did she mention him to you again after that?" Gu Ye asked.

"I have, but it's just saying, but it's just a cliché, you know, as the crown prince, you should associate with the noble son and lady of the right family, instead of degrading yourself."

"I'm willing to degenerate..." Gu Ye sneered and didn't speak for a long time.

Gu Zhaoting's heart almost reached his throat.Although Gu Ye is not a qualified father, he still regards him as his relative.It must be a tragedy for father and son to fall in love with the same person. His biological father is gone, and he doesn't want to lose his adoptive father again.

After an unknown period of time, Gu Ye, who was almost completely immersed in his own thoughts, seemed to wake up suddenly, and asked, "Are you going to participate in some activities?"

"Yes, I'm going to an open-air barbecue party soon." Gu Zhaoting said carefully.

"Go, I won't bother you anymore." Gu Ye smiled more lovingly, his eyes that were calm like a pool of stagnant water seemed to suddenly come alive.Before Gu Zhaoting was about to hang up the phone, he suddenly stopped Gu Zhaoting again, and said earnestly: "Since you are in love, you must treat people well. There are many people in the nobles who have the superficial idea of ​​the so-called good family like the queen. There is a lot of resistance, but it doesn't mean you can't go on, how far you can go depends on how determined you are. If you don't have the consciousness to go against the current, it's better to let go earlier to avoid getting hurt."

Gu Zhaoting felt the hairs on his back stand on end.What did the emperor mean by this?Did he let himself go so that he could give Yuan Chen to him?

"I will treat him well!" Gu Zhaoting said solemnly and firmly, "I will never let him leave me, this kind of thing will never happen!"

"That's good." Gu Ye showed an approving smile, the love in his eyes made Gu Zhaoting's back straighten up, "Good boy, this is what a man should do: protect his lover."

Gu Zhaoting watched Gu Ye hang up the phone and heaved a sigh of relief.Gu Ye's last words seemed to indicate that he had no other thoughts about Ning Yuanchen.But he suddenly called and said so many nagging words, is it just to let himself have a good relationship with Yuan Chen?

In the palace, Gu Ye hung up the phone and took a deep breath.Ever since he learned of the whereabouts of the engagement ring he gave Madeleine from Mr. Morton yesterday, he felt as if his heart was about to break.

19 years ago, Madeleine disappeared suddenly two days before the engagement banquet, leaving only a letter of apology, and disappeared without a trace with a bodyguard.Gu Ye never thought that Madeleine would leave him, they were so in love, he wished he could stick to her every minute.But after the royal family released the news of their engagement, Madeleine seemed very anxious. She was overly nervous, almost lost sleep every day, and was always nervous, like a frightened cat. A louder voice would scare her jump up.

Gu Ye didn't take it seriously, he just thought it was a common premarital phobia.However, when he saw the letter of apology and breakup, he wondered if she was so nervous because she didn't want to be with him.

He felt that he was almost dead, and he couldn't accept this reality at all.He knew that the bodyguard was different from his thin and frail self. He was a tall and handsome European man with blond hair and blue eyes, and a fit body. He was as charming as the male model on the cover of a magazine. He also remembered that the bodyguard looked depressed when he looked at Madeleine. obsession and admiration.He once asked Madeleine to fire the bodyguard because of jealousy, but Madeleine refused his request on the grounds that the bodyguard saved her name.Later, he persuaded himself not to take it too seriously, after all, Madeleine was a very attractive noble lady, and there were many people who liked her, including this one.

And now, he is about to eat the bitter fruit of underestimating the enemy.

He fell into the grief of self-pity and the anger and shame of being abandoned. All the past made him firmly believe that Madeleine refused to let the bodyguard be fired because the two had already had a secret love affair.However, unlike ordinary people's engagement, the emperor's engagement can be reversed, which is almost equivalent to marriage, and breach of contract is as serious a scandal as divorce.As an emperor, he is no better than a bodyguard. This joke will be recorded in the history books and will be ridiculed forever.

Just when he didn't know how to solve this scandal, Madeleine's sister Caitlin proposed the idea of ​​their engagement, only saying that it was a staff error that confused the two daughters of Duke Royce's mansion .

So he agreed.His heart was full of grief and anger, and he had completely lost the ability to think. He got engaged to Caitlin with a feeling of revenge, and at the urging of Duke Royce, he completed the wedding ceremony.

And it wasn't until this time that he calmed down from the stormy anger and realized that something was wrong.

If a woman doesn't love you, she can feel it.But besides refusing to fire her bodyguard, did she do anything that might ruin their relationship?No.Even though she was so nervous and anxious before the engagement banquet, she tried to stay with him as much as possible, and she leaned into his arms tightly, as if it would calm her down a little.

The body can't lie to anyone. Madeleine like this doesn't seem like she doesn't love him at all.And Madeleine has a gentle and cowardly personality. Because she is too kind, she will always be used by some cunning people who pretend to be pitiful.If the bodyguard begged her, she would indeed do things that would make herself uncomfortable rather than hurt others.

Gu Ye, who had figured all this out, couldn't regret it more. He sent someone to track down Madeleine's traces. Several years passed, but there was still no news.

Gradually, he felt as if he had discovered some terrible facts. He looked at his queen, and he began to think about why she was so quick to lend a helping hand back then, willing to sacrifice his marriage just to fulfill the dignity of the royal family.He looked at his father-in-law, Madeleine's father, the Duke of Royce. Madeleine was just a grown-up child, and the bodyguard was just a powerless civilian. The duke's mansion left, and it was only a few hours from their "elopement" to being discovered, which was not enough for them to go from the duke's mansion to the port of the central star. How could the duke not find them?

And now he believes that his guess was right.

Ever since Madeleine disappeared, Gu Ye felt that his heart had died.Now, this heart is alive, and the emotions that have been restrained and suppressed for decades are like floods in a storm. His rational dam has been washed to pieces, is in danger, and is about to collapse.

Calm down, calm down.he told himself so.First of all, there is no real evidence to confirm that Yuan Chen is Madeleine's child, and second, he is not yet capable enough to protect his lost and recovered treasure.What those people had done to his Madeleine, they could do to his child now.

Thinking of the severe situation around him, Gu Ye immediately clenched his fists.He has a gentle temperament, but now, he also has a bloodthirsty urge to kill.

But as an emperor, what he is best at is hiding his emotions.After taking a few deep breaths, he finally made his heartbeat no longer so chaotic. After a few minutes, his face no longer looked like a patient with a fever, and his eyes returned to their usual calmness.He called the guards and prepared to go out.The only thing he can trust now is the Duchess of Royce. As the emperor, many things are inconvenient for him to do, and an old lady who lives in seclusion and almost loses her sense of existence does not have so many restrictions.

As soon as Gu Ye went out, he ran into the female officer next to the queen: "Your Majesty, the Duke of Royce is visiting, and His Majesty the Queen would like to invite you to have lunch together."

"Take my apology to Your Excellency the Duke. I have something to do. I'm afraid I won't be able to have lunch with him." Gu Ye said indifferently, threw off the female officer, and left with a large group of attendants.

Hearing the female officer's reply, Queen Caitlin gritted her teeth and waved everyone out.After the door was closed, he gritted his teeth at Duke Royce and said, "Father, the emperor didn't come home yesterday, and today... Could it be that he has a lover outside? If that bitch is pregnant, My position is in jeopardy!"

"Don't mess around." Duke Royce is an old man over sixty years old. He looked like a handsome man when he was young, but his frown and downturned mouth have carved serious wrinkles on him over the years. , making him look very mean and cold, seeing the eldest daughter who was trembling with anger, his brows furrowed deeper, "You know the emperor, he can't be cared about by anyone except Madeleine. If he If you want to find a lover, you won't wait until now."

"Ha!" Kaitlyn laughed out loud, with a disgusted and ferocious expression, "Madeleine! Madeleine! Why can't he forget that bitch—"

"Snapped!"

A loud slap slapped the queen heavily on the face, so powerful that she fell off the seat and fell to the ground, the jewel clip on the bun fell all over the floor.

"Pay attention to your wording, that's your sister, and she should have been the queen, and she would naturally give birth to an heir for the royal family, instead of turning into a sad joke like you!" Duke Royce reprimanded coldly, the voice It was so severe, as if a whip was whipped on Caitlin's body, "If it wasn't for the fact that I only have two daughters, I would have killed you!"

Caitlin flinched, and let out a sob with her head bowed.It took a long time before Duke Royce helped her up, and let the robot bring a healing device and cover her swollen face.

"The emperor has no feelings for you in the first place." The Duke said indifferently, "Don't use jealousy and jealousy to do things that make him hate you."

Caitlin sobbed: "I heard that Keira Felton was showing off, saying that her husband has a cousin who looks exactly like Madeleine, and she will bring her to the palace to meet the emperor when she becomes an adult next year. By then, Their family is about to have a queen..."

"Did you become so stupid because of such absurd things?" The Duke laughed mockingly, "Don't worry, do you think I haven't found a girl like Madeleine in my family? Your husband is a Lover, he doesn't care about those doubles at all. He thinks doubles are the greatest humiliation to his great love."

"Dad!" Caitlin looked at him in shock, "How could you..."

Duke Royce took away the healing device, pinched her chin and looked around, and threw the healing device back to the robot until she couldn't see anything unusual.

"I've told you many times, give up, the emperor won't love you." Duke Royce said impatiently, "It's better to be a wife who misses your sister with your brother-in-law than to be a wife who makes your husband love you." Good sister."

Caitlin bit her lower lip and said nothing.

"Not convinced? Then don't do anything stupid! You don't have the qualifications to pursue his night out!" the Duke snapped.

The queen nodded slowly.

At the same time, Mu Jingfeng frowned as he looked at the information passed to him by his subordinates, as if he could pinch a fly to death.

Like Shen Luojun, after he learned the secret of "previous life" from Gu Zhaoting, he sent people to investigate the source of Ning Yuanchen's inheritance, and found out Ning Yuanchen's mother.In order to give Ning Yuanchen a reasonable excuse for the large sum of money, the system used the false identity that Duke Sanchez fabricated for Ning Yuanchen's mother, which left clues for them to investigate another secret.

And the military intelligence system is naturally more efficient than Shen Luojun. Looking at the surveillance video from the hospital in the data, Mu Jingfeng was so shocked that it was hard to calm down.

The pixels of the surveillance video are so high that he can clearly recognize the woman's face.As a member of the upper class, he certainly knew this woman who was closely related to the royal family. The scandal that was forcibly suppressed back then did not attract the attention of the common people. Keep it hot.

So he was sure that this young woman with a big belly walking beside Duke Sanchez was Madeleine Royce who was almost engaged to the emperor.

Looking at the date of the video, Mu Jingfeng was silent for a long time, and finally asked: "Has anyone else watched this video?"

"No more." The subordinate said, "The matter is of great importance, and I have also deleted this video from the hospital's surveillance records."

"You've done a good job." Mu Jingfeng said in a deep voice, "Don't tell anyone about this matter. Also, raise Yuan Chen's security level to S level. The progress of the investigation can be slowed down, but don't alarm anyone .”
