Gu Wang's cold voice sounded not far away.
"Intending to usurp the throne?! Lord Li is truly ambitious! He actually dares to set his sights on my throne!"
Gu Wang was still wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, his hair was messy, and he looked a little embarrassed.
It was more like he had hurriedly learned of Ying Xixi's kidnapping in the palace and had rushed over without even having time to change into plain clothes.
Gu Wang's voice made Li Mingzhi's heart skip a beat, and he explained subconsciously.
"Your Majesty! I am innocent! I have absolutely no intention of rebelling!
This is all fabricated by Ying Xixi to deliberately slander me!"
"Sir Li, I have to clarify again that I am Ying Zhen, not my younger sister Ying Xixi!"
Ying Xixi, who was tied up, spoke loudly at the top of her voice.
When Gu Wang saw Ying Xixi's pitiful look, heartache appeared in his eyes.
After he had his guards restrain all of Li Mingzhi's men, he strode up to Ying Xixi and untied her.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Li Mingzhi just said that he has kidnapped my sister. My father is on his way. Please help rescue my sister."
Ying Xixi quickly talked about this matter.
The unconscious Ying Zhen looks almost exactly like her. If Gu Wang's people see her, he might become suspicious!
But it is better for Ying Zhen to be in Gu Wang's hands than in Li Mingzhi's hands.
Now all we have to do is find a way to prevent Gu Wang’s people from seeing Ying Zhen’s face!
"System! Is there any tool that can change Ying Zhen's appearance, or even turn him into a girl?"
Ying Xixi asked the system anxiously in her heart.
[Host, you can use the illusion props. This way, you can selectively let certain people see Ying Zhen's mask.]
"That's fine. I remember one is fifty points, and it lasts for an hour, right?
Then I'll buy six, which will last for six hours, just in case.
I want everyone except me, my father, Miao Manman, and those loyal to the Ying Mansion to see Ying Zhen, a girl who looks different from me!"
[Okay, the host successfully purchased six illusion pills, spending three hundred points. Because there is a certain distance between the host and the target object, the illusion pills were automatically given to Ying Zhen.
Now, please think about what kind of picture you want the person who is experiencing the hallucination to see. 】
Ying Xixi thought about it immediately, and the system made arrangements immediately.
[Okay, it's done, the host can rest assured! ]
Ying Xixi breathed a sigh of relief.
While she was talking to the system, Gu Wang had already untied her and carried her down from the carriage board.
Ying Xixi: “!!!”
"Your Majesty! I can come down by myself!"
Ying Xixi lifted her feet and wanted to get down from the ground, but Gu Wang held her tightly and wouldn't let go.
"My dear, you are frightened. Let me hold you. Don't worry, your father and sister have been found by the guards. They are fine.
Li Mingzhi is here, I will deal with him, I will take you back first."
As Gu Wang spoke, he held Ying Xixi in his arms and strode towards the horses tied not far away.
Ying Xixi: “???”
No, what do you mean by taking her back?
Should we go back to Yingfu or the imperial palace?
Gu Wangke is still wearing a dragon robe, and riding a horse is too conspicuous!
Besides, she is on the horse. If she is seen by the people in the capital, the 18+ pornographic books about her and Gu Wang will probably be sold out!
Gu Wang jumped onto the horse and held Ying Xixi in his arms.
Ying Xixi panicked, "Your Majesty, you are still wearing your dragon robe. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you and me to ride together. How about I get off first?"
Gu Wang stretched out his long arms and directly wrapped them around Ying Xixi's waist.
"Just sit tight and no one will see you."
I heard Gu Wang's hot breath and low voice, and then the horse started running.
Ying Xixi: “???”
No, Gu Wang is deceiving himself, right?
Seeing that the horses were about to reach the street, Ying Xixi covered her face with her hands.
Gu Wang's eyes flashed with a smile when he noticed Ying Xixi's actions.
So cute.
Although Ying Xixi covered her face, she underestimated herself, or rather Ying Zhen's "popularity" in the capital.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the emperor and the left prime minister were riding together, and in an intimate posture!
Gu Wang took Ying Xixi and rode directly into the palace.
Ying Xixi: “???”
"Your Majesty, I just need to go back to my residence. There's no need to go to the palace, right?
I have nothing to do in the palace."
"My dear, you have been frightened, so it is best for you to stay in the palace.
Moreover, although Li Mingzhi was captured by the guards, there is no guarantee that he has any accomplices. If his accomplices sneak into Ying Mansion and capture you, you will be in great danger.
Your father and sister will be sent to the palace to stay temporarily. Oh, and your fiancée will also be coming to the palace, so don't worry."
Gu Wang said lightly, and rode his horse directly to the door of his bedroom. He put his arms around Ying Xixi's waist and dismounted with her.
"I see. Your Majesty is indeed very thoughtful. It is I who have been inconsiderate. Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ying Xixi thanked him and glanced at Gu Wang quietly.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that when Gu Wang said the word "fiancée" just now, it seemed like the words were squeezed out from between his teeth.
It seems that Gu Wang has accepted the fact that she is a man.
But this is still a bit troublesome, after all, she is not a real man.
Sooner or later, after Ying Zhen wakes up, she will have to switch places with Ying Zhen and put everything back in place.
Ying Xixi felt a headache just thinking about these things. Forget it, just take it one step at a time.
Ying Xixi followed Gu Wang into the bedroom.
The last time Ying Xixi came to Gu Wang’s palace was when she stayed here for a few nights.
She walked in a little awkwardly and stood there.
"My dear, please sit down and rest for a while. I also have something to tell you."
Gu Wang sat down at the table as he spoke. Eunuch Fuquan was very considerate and came forward to pour water for the two of them. He then took the initiative to step aside, leaving the space for the two of them.
Ying Xixi sat down and asked, "I wonder what the emperor is talking about?"
"Last time, my dear minister, you asked me to investigate Li Mingzhi's matter, and I have basically found out the truth.
Li Mingzhi was indeed as you said, taking bribes and embezzling the people's relief funds and disaster relief silver, and he did many other bad things besides that.
In addition, I have also found out two things."
Gu Wang paused, then looked up at Ying Xixi worriedly.
When their eyes met, Ying Xixi suddenly understood what Gu Wang wanted to say.
"Your Majesty, are those two things related to my mother and my sister?"
Gu Wang nodded and said, "I have found out that your mother's accident was not an accident, but a deliberate accident by the Li family.
And the accident that happened to your sister a year ago was also caused by the Li family."
