Yun Xiangye didn't dare to look into Gu Yan's eyes and whispered, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is indeed not dead. He took a drug that caused him to appear dead..."
Gu Yan firmly grasped Yun Xiangye's shoulders and said, "Xiangye, this is not a joke."
Yun Xiangye whispered, "How could I joke about this? His Highness is not dead. My sister just gave him a drug that made him fake his death..."
Gu Yan frowned and asked, "Then where is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now? Is he still in the mausoleum? Can the death-prevention drug last for so long?"
Yun Xiangye shook her head and said, "After the Crown Prince was buried, my sister took him out of the mausoleum, poisoned him and made him mute, and then sold him to a human trafficker from another place to be sold as a slave. We don't know where the Crown Prince is now."
Gu Yan looked into Yun Xiangye's eyes and said, "Why didn't you keep this important matter a secret from me forever?"
Yun Xiangye whispered, "I wanted to keep this a secret from you forever. After all, this concerns my life. But...what you said today makes sense. I hate you hiding it from me, but I can't hide it from you..."
Gu Yan was extremely annoyed and said, "It has come to this, you might as well keep it a secret from me forever!
Yun Xiangye! When you were involved in this matter, did you ever think about me? Did you ever think about our Gu family?
If this matter is exposed, even if my mother is Her Royal Highness the Princess, she won't be able to protect you and me!"
Seeing Gu Yan's anger, Yun Xiangye said, "If you're afraid that I'll implicate you, then divorce me. My sister and I will take responsibility for our actions and won't implicate you."
Gu Yan was even more angry: "Try mentioning divorce again?"
Yun Xiangye whispered guiltily, "Gu Yan, then please divorce me so that I don't get implicated in your Gu family... But I can't help but stand on my sister's side."
When Gu Yan heard the word "rest", he said coldly: "Shut up!"
After saying that, Gu Yan took the cloak beside him, put it on and was about to go out, but the door was closed heavily.
Yun Xiangye saw the closed door and sighed softly. No matter how you look at it, she was the one who was sorry for Gu Yan.
The door was opened again. Gu Yan walked in angrily and held Yun Xiangye's hand tightly, saying, "Come with me to see my parents."
Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan and asked, "Are you going to tell your parents about this?"
Gu Yan said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is my mother's nephew, who was born by her own hand. Do you know how heartbroken my mother was after His Royal Highness passed away? I must tell my mother about this so that she doesn't feel any more grief."
Yun Xiangye asked, "But what will happen to my sister then?"
"You still want to protect your sister?" Gu Yan looked at Yun Xiangye and said, "In your eyes, my life and Nuonuo's life are not as important as your sister He's?"
Yun Xiangye said, "No, you and Nuonuo are naturally more important than my sister, but it was the Crown Prince who first forced my sister into trouble, and I am just giving him a taste of his own medicine..."
"Give him a taste of his own medicine?" Gu Yan held Yun Xiangye's hand tightly and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wanted your sister to be the Crown Princess, but your sister? She actually wanted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be a mute slave."
Yun Xiangye said, "But the position of Crown Princess wasn't what my sister wanted. It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who coerced her into it."
Gu Yan was speechless for a moment. After a while, he said, "Come with me to see my parents first. Let's discuss this matter together. The most important thing is to save the lives of our Gu family."
Gu Yan and Yun Xiangye hurried to the main courtyard, but were stopped by the guards before they entered.
Gu Yan said to the guards, "I have something important to discuss with my father."
Gu Yan ignored the guards' obstruction and walked into the house holding Yun Xiangye's hand. When he entered the house, he saw his parents playing chess.
Gu Ling looked at Gu Yan and Yun Xiangye unhappily and asked, "It's so late, what are you doing here?"
Gu Yanping dismissed the servants beside him, then said to Gu Ling and Xie Zhixuan, "Dad, Mom, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not dead!"
Xie Zhixuan raised her eyes and looked at Gu Yan, "What did you say? Yun'er is not dead? How is that possible? I saw his corpse with my own eyes..."
Gu Yan said, "Didn't you give me three fake death pills before? I gave them all to the Crown Princess, and she gave them to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Gu Ling put down the chess piece in his hand, looked at Gu Yan and Yun Xiangye with sharp eyes and said, "You really think we have too many Danshu Tiequan, don't you?"
Yun Xiangye didn't dare to look at Gu Ling's eyes and lowered her head.
Gu Yan whispered, "I never thought the Crown Princess would be so cruel and ruthless as to do such a thing."
Yun Xiangye frowned slightly when she heard the cruel and ruthless words, but she did not argue.
Xie Zhixuan looked at Yun Xiangye and said, "Since Yun'er took the fake death drug and didn't die, then where did Yun'er go?"
Gu Yan said, "The Crown Princess sold him to a black market trafficker and took him to another place where he disappeared. I just want to use our Gu family's secret guards to secretly track down the Crown Prince and make amends."
Gu Ling stood up to get his cloak and said, "We must first inform His Majesty and His Majesty. His Majesty was deeply affected by the untimely death of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Telling them this will give them some hope."
Gu Yan glanced at Yun Xiangye and said, "No, if we tell His Majesty now, the Crown Princess will surely die, and our Gu family will also be suspected by His Majesty."
Gu Ling said, "Do you think you won't be suspected if you don't tell me? A passing goose leaves traces. If His Majesty finds out about this, there won't even be a chance to make amends."
Gu Yan stopped Gu Ling and said, "Father, if you tell His Majesty and the Queen about this now, the Crown Princess will definitely lose her life..."
Gu Ling glared at Gu Yan and said, "Before we find the Crown Prince, Your Majesty has only the Imperial Grandson as his bloodline. The reputation of the Imperial Grandson's birth mother must not be damaged in the slightest. The Imperial Grandson is young and cannot leave his mother for the time being. The Crown Princess will only be imprisoned, but her life will not be in danger. You all should quickly follow me to the palace to apologize."
