Regarding the question of how much weight Lu Siyong has in his heart, Ji Xuanling is not sure, saying this is just a test.

Gu Yanlin's actions paused because of this, "My minister and Mr. Lu are just doing business together. Although this business is a bit unsightly, it does not violate the law. Your Majesty is so aggressive, this minister is really terrified."

He said with a puzzled look, as if he really didn't understand what he was talking about.

Yun Youqing sneered, "I can't see where you are panicking." It was nonsense, and he just opened his mouth.

"You expected us to come, now who are you acting for?"

He looked down at the three teacups that had been prepared on the table, his eyes were full of blatant sarcasm.

It's a pity that Young Master Gu is also thick-skinned. Not only did he not feel embarrassed after being exposed, but he said pointedly: "I never thought that the prince would be so loyal."

"I don't need to worry about it." Ji Xuanling couldn't see him being angry with the emperor, "Today I just want to know where you hide people. If Mr. Minister is not clear, I don't mind inviting Mr. Lu into the palace for a while. Syria."

Gu Yanlin's position in the household department is the servant, and his grade is not too high, but the advantage is that he is convenient to do things.

Regarding Ji Xuanling's threat, he still did not express his position.After all, Lu Siyong was the son of Prime Minister Zuo, unless Ji Xuanling really planned to tear his face apart, it was impossible for him to really do anything to him.

Ji Xuanling glanced at his fingertips that were gradually turning white while holding the cup, and said leisurely: "I am not a gentleman, it's okay to play some tricks occasionally, but I don't know if Mr. Gu can watch people for a moment."

It means, if it’s not clear, why can’t he come to the dark?Just like the last time Yun Youqing kidnapped someone without any reason, as long as there is no evidence, who would dare to point out that he did it?

Gu Yanlin's face became a little ugly.It's hard to tell if it's because of Lu Siyong, or just because of being threatened.

After a while, Gu Yanlin suddenly showed a smile of unknown meaning, and the moment he raised his eyes, the malice in his eyes began to grow wantonly.He suddenly relaxed, and his demeanor was relaxed, but Ji Xuanling felt inexplicably seeing a lunatic.It's just that before he got to the bottom of it, he returned to his normal expression for convenience.

"There's nothing you can't say, it's just..."

Ji Xuanling was startled, and turned his head to exchange a look with Yun Youqing.

He lifted his chin lightly, motioning for the other party to continue talking.

"This matter is indeed related to my father. Your majesty also knows that this humble minister is just a bastard, and people in the family keep his words light. What he did was just following his father's orders. If you say so, your majesty must promise that it will only be done if the bridge is demolished."

The truth is still unknown, Gu Yanlin may not be as innocent as he said, but right now, as someone who is about to betray his father, this condition does not seem to be too much.

Even if Gu Yanlin has no relationship with his father at all, and even has some grievances that are unknown to outsiders.

But these are not what Ji Xuanling is concerned about now, so he nodded in agreement.

"Secondly, father and Prime Minister Zuo didn't know about the matter between me and Ayong. Your majesty and the prince just pretend that you don't know about it. Of course, the same is true for my humble minister." Gu Yanlin said again.

The two sitting across from each other reacted for a while, and then suddenly realized that the "Ayong" in his mouth was Lu Siyong.Saying this is equivalent to admitting that he has a very close relationship with Lu Siyong.

Ji Xuanling noticed that his eyes had turned between himself and the emperor's uncle, and the two looked at each other, and they suddenly understood each other.

"What about the third?"

"Third..." Gu Yanlin thought for a while, then smiled slightly, "I wish Your Majesty all the best."

Yun Youqing expressed doubts about his sudden change of attitude, but right now they have no other better choice, "You'd better make sure you're telling the truth."

Gu Yanlin said innocently: "Your official speaks lightly, he is just a small servant of the household department, how dare he lie to His Majesty and the prince."

"Okay, there's no need to say polite words." Ji Xuanling was too lazy to listen to what he had to say, "Just say what you know."

Gu Yanlin deliberated for a while before slowly opening his mouth and said: "As your Majesty guessed, this business is indeed owned by my father, and my minister is just managing it on his behalf. Let Ayong participate...in order to be able to deal with it after the incident is revealed. , there is a scapegoat."

"You can learn from Lu Siyong's sincerity." Ji Xuanling even felt that he intended to turn against him from the very beginning, but he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to retreat unscathed, so he took Joe again and again.

"I just don't know if Mr. Lu also has a soft spot for you."

Gu Yanlin's expression froze, and there was some coldness in his eyes, "Whether your Majesty believes it or not, I really don't know much about this matter. What I do is just manage the account of Qiushuifang. As for Yao San, he belongs to his father. He only obeys his father's orders and is responsible for sending fresh blood to Qiushuifang every month."

"The place where they store their goods is not far from the capital." Gu Yanlin gave an approximate location, "Your Majesty can send someone to investigate secretly."

Ji Xuanling tapped his fingers on the table unconsciously. The person in front of him seemed to have said everything, but he didn't seem to say anything.However, these alone are enough.

Before leaving, he made a promise to Gu Yanlin's previous conditions, "If Master Gu's words are true, I will definitely not embarrass you."

The two got up and were about to leave, but before they could raise their feet, Gu Yanlin stopped them again from behind.

"My lord, wait a moment..."

Yun Youqing didn't understand why it was him and not Ji Xuanling who stopped him, so he turned around and waited to hear what he had to say.

There was a smile on the corner of Gu Yanlin's mouth, but it made people feel a little uncomfortable to watch him, he only heard him say: "I once heard my father mention by chance that when King Nanhuai rebelled many years ago, the death of General Yun seems to have other secrets. "

After a moment of silence, Ji Xuanling looked at him worriedly, "Uncle Emperor..."

Yun Youqing stared at Gu Yanlin, and said coldly, "What do you know?"

Facing the cold gazes of the two, Gu Yanlin helplessly spread his hands, but no matter how he looked at it, he seemed to be doing it deliberately, "I just heard my father say it by chance, I really don't know how much it is. It just suddenly occurred to me, thinking that the prince will probably meet you." I want to know, just a reminder."

He picked himself clean.

But when the incident happened, Gu Yanlin was also young, so it's not surprising that he didn't know about it.

Unable to get an answer, Yun Youqing simply turned around and left.

He walked casually, showing no emotion, but Ji Xuanling was a little concerned.

Old General Yun was ordered in the face of danger that year, and died in battle because he couldn't wait for the belated reinforcements.If there is something hidden about this matter...

Ji Xuanling turned his head and took a deep look at Gu Yanlin who saluted and sent the two of them off, then turned his head and chased after the emperor's uncle.
