Li Yuanle is not a fool, but sometimes General Li is willing to be a fool, just like now, what happened between the princess and the pirate, Li Yuanle does not want to delve into it.
Yu Xiaoxiao asked Li Yuanle, "Do you believe what we say?"
Li Yuanle nodded and said, "Princess, I believe it."
Yu Xiaoxiao was relieved. She said that with her high IQ, how could she not be able to handle this world? But this time she learned another lesson: it turns out that men in this world can't just go out with their dicks. (Don't compare the shameless end of the world with this world that values propriety and integrity! Hey!)
Li Yuanle looked at the boss and said, "If you have any other thoughts, your husband will make sure you die without a burial place." How good of a temper could Gu Xinglang have when he was a general in the army?
The boss felt that his final fate in this life might be to be wrongly killed. No matter who he liked, he would not like a person who was out of stock. More importantly, would he like a woman he couldn't beat? Is he so mean?
Gu Xinglang arrived at the front yard at this time, looked at the people standing together and talking, and said, "What are you talking about?"
Yu Xiao: "My father went back to the palace."
"Then let's go in and talk," Gu Xinglang looked at Li Yuanle, then at the boss, and said.
Li Yuanle came over, patted Gu Xinglang on the shoulder, and said, "Keep that thief away from the princess."
What should Gu Xinglang think of such a nonsensical sentence? Gu Shao thought for a long time before saying to General Li Shao: "The princess won't really beat him to death." As a brother, he cares about his sister and is afraid that she will become a widow, but he doesn't have to imagine his wife as a murderer, right?
Li Yuanle staggered. Could this stupid man in front of him really be his brother Gu Xinglang?
Yu Xiaoxiao said at this time: "My father asked Brother Li to return to the army as soon as possible, so what about Xiongxiong and Li Xiaomei?"
Li Yuanle looked at the guy in front of him and said, "Wait until Brother Gu comes back, I'll discuss it with him." In this family, he can only trust Brother Gu.
In the Ministry of Punishment of the Imperial Palace, Gu Xingnuo looked at Jingzhong who was tied to the rack and said softly, "The chief steward never thought that one day he would end up in such a situation, right?"
Jingzhong said, "I want to see His Majesty."
Young Master Gu laughed and said, "Since the emperor has ordered me to interrogate you, you should know what the emperor's intention is."
The Gu family had a grudge against Jingzhong. Emperor Xianzong sent Gu Xingnuo to interrogate him. Jingzhong had been calling the shots in the imperial palace and the court for so many years. What did Emperor Xianzong mean by this? How could Chief Jing not understand? His Majesty wanted to kill him!
"You are just a eunuch," Gu Xingnuo said coldly, "Tell me all your crimes, and I can let you die more easily, Chief Steward."
Jingzhong laughed and said, "If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext."
Gu Xingnuo was somewhat dazed after hearing Jingzhong's words. He had also said such words in the Dali Temple's prison, but now he was the one sitting there listening to others shouting these words.
"I want to see His Majesty!" Jingzhong shouted to Gu Xingnuo, "I will only talk to His Majesty if I have anything to say."
A guard from the Ministry of Punishment stepped forward and slapped Jingzhong hard in the face for shouting.
Gu Xingnuo looked at Qinghai who was standing beside him. This supervisor should be the new chief steward's man.
Qinghai had always been very respectful to Gu Xingnuo. Seeing Gu Xingnuo looking at him, he quickly bowed and whispered, "Does the Grand Duke have any instructions?"
Gu Xingnuo waved his hand.
Qing Hai straightened up, and his voice suddenly became stern, and he ordered: "Since he won't talk, torture him."
Gu Xingnuo stood up and left the torture room. It was true that Young Master Gu was a general, but he did not like to watch this kind of scene.
Before Master Gu stood in the corridor for a while, Qing Hai also came out of the dungeon and stood behind Master Gu, saying with a smile: "I didn't expect that the Duke is such a kind person."
Gu Xingnuo looked back at Qinghai and said, "The emperor asked us to investigate the case, but he wanted to kill Jingzhong without finding a result. How can we explain this to the emperor?"
Qinghai whispered: "My Lord, Jingzhong has many followers in the palace and the court, I am just afraid that something bad will happen if I delay."
"What does the father-in-law mean?"
"This is what my people found in Jingzhong's room," Qinghai took out a string of wooden beads from his sleeve and handed it to Gu Xingnuo.
Gu Xingnuo took the string of wooden beads in his hand and looked at it carefully. There was a mark carved on the wooden beads, "Eternal Life Temple?" Young Master Gu whispered.
Qinghai said nothing, just bowed.
"Thank you for your concern, Manager Qing," Gu Xingnuo whispered.
"My Lord," Qing Hai said, "I am also looking forward to His Majesty the Seventh Prince returning to the palace as soon as possible."
Gu Xingnuo smiled. How could someone who could take over Jingzhong's position be a harmless sheep? Qinghai was surrendering to the Seventh Emperor. The more influential the princess was in front of Emperor Xianzong, the more people like Qinghai would want to surrender. "I will present this to His Majesty," Young Master Gu said to Chief Steward Qing, "but I can't promise you anything about how His Majesty will deal with it."
"Yes," Qinghai said hurriedly, "I'm already troubling you, my Lord."
After getting Young Master Gu's approval, Chief Steward Qing walked away with a wink. Gu Xingnuo didn't like watching execution scenes, but he liked watching them.
Gu Xingnuo looked at the wooden beads in his hand, and his mind was still on Gu Xinglang. Everything in the world is interdependent and mutually exclusive. If Young Master Gu doesn't believe in his younger brother, then he is truly hopeless.
He didn't know how long he had been standing in the corridor. Gu Xingnuo heard someone calling him from behind, so he quickly put away the wooden beads in his hand. Young Master Gu turned around and found that the person was Xiao Wei.
"The princess asked me to come to the palace to look for the eldest young master," Xiao Wei said respectfully to Gu Xingnuo.
"Your Majesty should be relieved that she didn't come to the palace in person, right?" Gu Xingnuo said with a laugh.
Xiao Wei also smiled and said, "Young Master, the emperor went to the palace to see the imperial teacher. I heard from my brothers that the emperor talked to the princess for a long time, but he was still unhappy."
Gu Xingnuo could imagine that scene.
Xiao Wei looked at the entrance to the dungeon, but it was so pitch black that he couldn't see anything.
"Jingzhong is inside," Gu Xingnuo whispered, "and the leader of the secret guards."
The smile on Xiao Wei's face froze.
Young Master Gu walked a few steps towards Xiao Wei and said, "It's not easy for Zhao Qiuming to turn things around now, so I won't make things difficult for him."
Xiao Wei hurriedly asked, "What does the young master mean?"
"I won't interrogate him," said Young Master Gu. "Tell your secret guard brothers to give him a quick death."
This secret guard leader was not the one who led Xiao Wei, but Xiao Wei's face still lit up after hearing what Gu Xingnuo said.
"Everyone has their own way sometimes," Gu Xingnuo didn't know whether he was talking about the leader of the secret guards or himself, and said to the little guard, "Choosing is just a choice of how to live."
