Gu Hanyu was puzzled. He opened the letter and read it carefully. The more he read, the more frightened he became. His expression was solemn. Finally, he looked up at her in disbelief.
Bei Yutang took the letter from his hand and then put it on the fire, and the letter burned to ashes.
"Are you scared?" Bei Yutang asked calmly, as if what he just saw was just an ordinary thing.
“You, what are you doing…”
She actually wanted her father to be disgraced and infamous forever.
Her idea was really bold and even crazy.
Gu Hanyu's heart sank slightly. For a moment, he couldn't see through the person in front of him, and he was even more worried about her.
She can plot against her father and manipulate everyone, so what?
Would she turn to him?
Gu Hanyu thought a lot in his mind and was speechless for a moment.
He thought he was keeping his thoughts secret, but he never expected that Bei Yutang saw through every detail of his thoughts.
Bei Yutang was not surprised at his reaction.
"Your Highness, I wonder if you still remember An's promise."
Upon hearing this title, Gu Hanyu was struck by lightning and was completely stunned.
How could he not remember her?
The mother of the Third Prince is Consort Yuan, not Gu Hanyu's biological mother. His biological mother was a palace maid, but Emperor Wenxuan happened to have a hangover and visited a palace maid, who turned out to be Gu Hanyu's biological mother.
Her mother had a pretty appearance, and among the common people she would be a beautiful girl, but in the huge harem, she was completely unattractive.
After Emperor Wenxuan favored her for a while, he abandoned her.
She didn't know whether it was lucky or unfortunate that she had a child after being favored.
Even though she was wearing the ancient cold jade, An was not liked by Emperor Wenxuan.
Although Gu Hanyu is a prince, he does not have a favored mother or powerful relatives. In the palace where the powerful are bullied and the weak are exploited, his life is worse than that of some servants.
When Gu Hanyu heard his mother's name, his body stiffened slightly and a dark light flashed in his eyes.
He thought of his childhood, when his mother and his concubine kept each other warm on cold nights. She always protected him, but she herself was frozen like an ice man.
He thought of his mother lying on the bed, dying, with no one to take care of her and no medicine to treat her.
He was only four years old at that time, and he knew that the only way to save his mother was to ask his father for help.
He knelt outside the palace gate for a whole night until he fainted, without ever seeing him.
His father, the emperor, didn't want to see his son at all.
He will always remember how his mother died.
He would always remember how they lived in the harem.
He will always remember how heartless and unfeeling that high and mighty man was.
Her mother was not a person who sought to curry favor with the rich and powerful. She could have left the palace and lived with her childhood sweetheart for the rest of her life, but her life was ruined by that arrogant man.
He destroyed her happiness and then abandoned her.
He hated Emperor Wenxuan and was very dissatisfied with his ruthlessness and cold-heartedness.
Gu Hanyu's eyes were cold, "What do you want to say?"
"I'm the same as you." Bei Yutang said softly.
Gu Hanyu understood.
She was telling herself that she had a reason for targeting Emperor Wenxuan, and that reason was the same as his. Because Emperor Wenxuan had done something that made her want to kill him.
"I remember that Mu Xiangjun was from the Great Zhou Dynasty and has been in the Southern Tang Kingdom for just over a year. Your father and you only had those few interactions. It's not enough to make you like this, right?" Gu Hanyu said slowly.
