"Your Highness, this person's fate is exactly the one I mentioned before. If Your Highness wants to live a long life and achieve great things, this person must never appear in front of Your Highness again." Bei Yutang said solemnly.
It was indeed her.
Gu Fanzhi's heart sank, and he felt his heart become empty.
The woman he loved was actually the one who was hindering his great cause.
He had already made his choice between the country and the beauty.
Gu Fanzhi was stunned for a moment before returning to normal, "Master, from what you just said, is there still room for maneuver?"
"That's right." Bei Yutang nodded. "Your Highness should have been destined for the Purple Qi, but due to the influence of those around him, the Purple Qi has faded, leaving only a few scattered points. It would be difficult for you to rely on these scattered Purple Qi to sit on the main seat."
"However, it is not impossible to change. However, this process will require Your Highness to take some risks."
Gu Fanzhi listened carefully, "Is the risk big?"
"Great," Bei Yutang said solemnly, "A slight mistake could threaten His Highness's life, but if successful, it will ensure His Highness's secure seat on the throne."
Gu Fanzhi pondered for a moment and then said, "To accomplish great things, it's worth taking some risks."
"Since Your Highness has made the decision, I will go back and help you prepare all the matters. When the time comes, Your Highness will just need to do as I say." Bei Yutang said.
"Thank you, Master."
Gu Fanzhi accompanied Bei Yutang to the gate of the courtyard and watched her leave.
When he returned to the study, there was another person in the study, and that person was the strategist Gao Qin.
"Your Highness, this man has a good reputation outside, but for matters like this, I feel we need to try a few more times to avoid making things worse." Gao Qin suggested cautiously.
Gu Fanzhi naturally wouldn't let his subordinates think he was too impatient. "Gao Qin, you're too cautious. The people we sent out before all got good results, which shows that this person has some skills."
"Your Highness, this matter concerns the throne, so you must be extremely cautious. Previously, it was just a simple fortune-telling, but now it's about changing your destiny, and you must not take it lightly."
"Okay, what do you think?" Gu Fanzhi agreed.
"Your Highness, the position of Minister of War has been vacant for many days, and there is much debate within the court. The Emperor has yet to make a decision. Why not ask him to determine the candidate the Emperor prefers? If the candidate is not one of ours, have him find a way to change it. If he succeeds, it will prove that this person can truly help Your Highness achieve great things. If he can't even accomplish this, how can he expect to help Your Highness achieve great things?"
His words touched Gu Fanzhi's heart.
"I'll leave this matter to you to bring up."
Gao Qin bowed, "I will definitely take care of it for Your Highness. This matter should be dealt with as soon as possible. I will go find him right away."
In a remote courtyard, Bei Yutang had just returned and Gao Qin followed closely.
Gao Qin greeted him with a smile upon seeing him. "Master, I am the advisor of His Highness the Fourth Prince. I was delighted to hear that His Highness invited you to his residence. I have long heard of your extraordinary abilities and have admired you immensely. I hope you will not be offended by my intrusion today."
Bei Yutang stared at him with a pretentious gaze, "Donor, you must have come here for something, but you can tell me what you want to tell me."
Gao Qin laughed heartily, not showing any sign of embarrassment at being exposed. "The Taoist priest is truly powerful. He already knew my intentions before I even said anything. So I'll just speak frankly."
Bei Yutang raised her hand to interrupt what he was about to say.
