The fake young lady, who was mistakenly swapped at birth into the Changping Marquisate, insisted on leaving the Marquisate to return home and become a village girl. The entire capital waited to see...
If there was anyone he hated the most, it would definitely be Gu Yunni.
If there was no Gu Yunni, why would it wander around like a stray dog?
He knew why Du Changming found him, and he also knew who he cared about most.
At this moment, instead of answering, he asked, "Prince, you must miss Aruo very much, right? He is my most proud disciple. I have a way to contact him. As long as he is not dead, he will sense my call and will do his best to come here. Prince, do you want to give it a try?"
He moved Aruo out. He could live so freely in the Prince's Mansion thanks to his apprentice.
Fortunately, he kept some cards in reserve and didn't reveal everything. Otherwise, even if he died now, we wouldn't know why he died.
"Really?" Du Changming suddenly became excited and stared at the old man.
This is a wound in his heart that will never be overcome. If he can really get in touch with her, he will be very grateful.
"As long as you can contact them, even if you want to be a guest of honor in my Prince's Mansion in the future, everything will be easy to discuss. If you want to deal with Gu Yunni and the Imperial Preceptor, I can also help you solve it."
Du Changming said this without caring about the consequences or how much trouble it would cause.
He missed the unrestrained state he had when Aruo was by his side, and wanted to return to the past.
He always felt that since he was the prince, he could control everything and no one could challenge him.
"Your Highness, please don't joke. How could this old Taoist have so many unrealistic ideas in his mind? I don't even have the courage. I only raised this with you because I miss my disciple. If you also want to, I will go back and give it a try."
The headmaster was still being modest and returned the words that the prince had just spoken.
How dare he say he wanted Gu Yunni's life? What if the prince was just testing the waters?
He still remembered the hatred in Du Changming's eyes when he found him. It was obvious that he wanted to skin him alive.
Although he didn't know why the prince changed his mind halfway, he didn't dare to trust him.
"Alright! Go back and try it out first. If you have any news, please inform me immediately. I will reward you handsomely!"
Du Changming did not continue to make things difficult for him. As long as the old man could accomplish what he wanted, he would give him whatever he wanted.
The eunuch next to him couldn't stand it any longer and tried to persuade him, "Your Highness...why don't you think carefully about why you arrested the old man before?"
Du Changming has really gone astray now. If he is not persuaded, he will probably go further and further.
"Alright! I understand what I'm doing, and I don't need you to take charge of everything. Even though you grew up with me, I'm the Crown Prince, and you're the eunuch. Don't think of meddling in everything!"
Du Changming frowned, feeling a little impatient.
I finally found a little hope, but ended up having my hope shattered. Why are these people so annoying?
The eunuch didn't dare to speak, but Du Changming continued, "I know you want to persuade me about the matter between me and Gu Yunni. Isn't it because of her fate? If she disappears, will this fate be transferred to someone else?"
Because of the prince's words, the hall was silent for a long time.
In the end, he felt the atmosphere was awkward, so he decided to explain, "I'm already the Crown Prince, and my father likes me. I'll definitely be the ruler of the world in the future. Why should I be so cautious?"
He was very dissatisfied in his heart and had been feeling uneasy ever since he took the position of crown prince.
Now his fate is actually directly in the hands of others. How can he feel at ease?
My fate is determined by my own hands, not by God. He wants to decide my own destiny! I don't want to listen to the nonsense of the national teacher.
Now looking at the relationship between the National Master and Gu Yunni, he began to doubt whether the National Master was sent by Gu Yunni?
The eunuch shook his head helplessly and did not try to persuade Gu Yunni anymore.
He knew that since the prince had made up his mind, he would not change it easily, so he had to start from other places.
"Your Highness, please don't blame me for being nosy. I heard that His Majesty has already learned about this. You must not get involved in the plague. You know how much His Majesty values the people. If he finds out, you will not escape punishment."
He was not thinking about the prince, but about himself. Only if the prince survived could he survive.
As a high-ranking eunuch, if the prince is not around, he will have no choice but to lose his life.
"You're overthinking it." Du Changming looked indifferent, with an arrogant expression on his face.
He knows what to do and what not to do. He is not a stupid person.
"I used the souls of the dead, and didn't actually touch the people. Even if the emperor knew, what would he do? Would he punish me, the crown prince, for those dead? Oh, the emperor still values me."
Du Changming really thought so in his heart and believed that there would be no accidents, so he dared to do so.
If there was anything wrong, he would have given up long ago.
Du Changming was very unhappy. Why did everyone side with Gu Yunni and Sheng Mingyu?
Even his personal eunuch thought so. Who was the prince, Sheng Mingyu or himself?
"I didn't mean any harm, and I didn't mean to hurt anyone. I just wanted to cause them some trouble. Is that not okay? Don't bother me with these little things in the future. At most, you can tell the truth to the emperor. What he cares about most is the reputation of the royal family. As long as it involves the royal family's reputation, he won't make a big deal."
Before doing these things, Du Changming had already thought about the cost.
He also calculated it carefully before he dared to do it.
The worst that could happen is a scolding. If the crown prince were to be deposed because of these little things, it would be a joke.
My father will never let the royal family become a laughing stock.
"Well... well, since Your Highness has said so, then I will not be responsible. If anything unexpected happens again, Your Highness, please remember to tell me. I will do my best to help. If I can't help, I will also prepare some money for Your Highness so that we can escape."
The eunuch did not have high expectations in his heart. Over the years, as long as the prince had a relationship with Sheng Mingyu, he would not get any benefits. Anyway, he had to remember this purpose.
But the prince couldn't remember, so he had no choice but to take care of his affairs after his death.
At worst, he could just run away with the prince. As long as he stayed by the prince's side, he would still have a good life and would not suffer any grievances.
Du Changming is doing very well, but Sheng Mingyu is in dire straits.
"Grand Master, many days have passed, and you still haven't made any progress? The people are becoming increasingly restless. If this continues, we won't be able to suppress them."
