Last time it was about Miao Xiang, and this time it was about Qing Feng. She felt like a headless fly, running around in confusion.
Rong Zhen accompanied her back to the house, stretched out his long arms and held her in his arms.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine."
"Yeah." Gu Yunru was comforted by him, but her anxiety and panic did not subside. It was not until the next morning that she looked at Xiao Ye, who was busy dressing her, and asked, "Is Qingfeng's whereabouts known?"
"Not yet." Xiao Ye and the others were also confused, but it was really strange that this living person disappeared for a day and a night for no reason.
"Okay, let's just use this hair accessory. You all go back. I want to be alone for some time." Gu Yunru said to herself and just drew a little black on her eyebrows, and that was it.
Just as he was about to go to the general's mansion to visit Shen Aojun, he didn't expect Shen Aojun to walk into the house in the blink of an eye. Seeing that Shen Aojun's eyes were slightly red, he knew that she must have suffered some injustice. He quickly put down the jade comb in his hand, walked forward and held her arm.
"What happened? Why are you feeling so wronged?" Gu Yunru's beautiful phoenix eyes kept looking at her. Seeing that there was a dark circle under Shen Aojun's eyes, she must have not slept well last night.
"Come and sit down. Xiaoye will pour you a cup of lemon tea." Gu Yunru called to the servant at the door, and then looked at her with a dreamy look on her face and held her hand tightly.
"Did you have a fight with Zijun?"
"no."
"If it wasn't a quarrel with Zijun, what else could it be about?"
Gu Yunru almost forgot that although the couple had been married for a year, the relationship between them was as cold as ice.
"My father is being investigated." Shen Aojun is never a crying person. If one day she looks so haggard, she must have encountered some setbacks that are difficult to deal with.
"Admiral? How could that be?" Gu Yunru was puzzled when Shen Aojun said with a sad face, "Someone reported my father, saying that he was colluding with the elite outside the Great Wall and leaking information."
"It shouldn't be, Lord Shen is a man of high moral character and would not do such a thing." Gu Yunru knew Lord Shen. Such an outstanding father had educated a very outstanding daughter. He could not believe that the information was leaked. Such a capital crime came from Lord Shen's mouth. It was obvious that someone had framed him.
It was thought that the power of the Grand Chancellor had been eliminated in the court, but unexpectedly there were still a few roots left, trying to take root and sprout quickly. Unexpectedly, these roots were like a thousand-year-old vine that entangled people, and soon entangled Lord Shen, almost suffocating him.
Recently, the ministers in the court have been busy impeaching Lord Shen. Shen Aojun became depressed after hearing the news, and had no choice but to come to Gu Yunru to plead for mercy.
"Yun Ru, this matter has attracted the attention of the emperor. It is very likely that the emperor will no longer trust my father. Those people bit back and wanted to drag my father into this. They are simply deliberate and worthy of death!
Yunru, please help me talk to Prince Zhao, and have Prince Zhao talk to the emperor. Daddy will never do anything like colluding with foreign parties and selling out national information."
Shen Aojun cried so hard that the stars in the sky shed tears, the universe and the sun and the moon also sighed, and her eyes were a little red and swollen, which made people feel very sad. But she was also Gu Yunru's good friend in the city, so how could he bear to see her carry such a burden alone.
"Don't worry, I will definitely tell the prince about this matter. Don't worry too much. Where is Uncle Shen now?"
Before Gu Yunru could ask, she seemed to be hesitant to speak. She must have been hiding something. He grabbed her hand with more force and said to her sternly, "You must tell me what you know, otherwise I can't plead for your uncle."
"My father fled to Yangzhou the day after he received the news. This was a trick! My father was fooled. The emperor's people are even more suspicious of my father. Now they are sending people to Yangzhou to arrest my father. Maybe he has already..."
When Shen Aojun said this, her face was filled with sorrow and she almost fainted from anger. Something must have happened during this period that she didn't know about. She didn't expect that her father would be implicated to this extent, and she, as his daughter, was the last one to know about it.
"Aojun, don't be sad. I will give you an explanation for this matter." Gu Yunru had a good idea in mind. She asked Shen Aojun to go back first and let Huang Zijun handle the matter. After going to Yangzhou, she must not harm her father's life. Presumably, Huang Zijun was also a man who valued friendship and would not do anything to his father easily.
Gu Yunru wanted to go to the street to look for Rong Zhen before it got dark. He didn't need to enter the palace today, so he might have gone to Ruyi Inn. But after walking around, he didn't see any trace of Rong Zhen. He came to the milk tea shop, where business was still booming. The long queue almost reached the corner of the street.
"Hey, don't squeeze me!"
"Hey, it's obviously you who cut in line, okay?"
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
Hearing the voices in the team, Gu Yunru almost sneered, then quickly returned to her dignified look and walked into the milk tea shop. People who didn't know her identity thought she was a super member of the milk tea shop, because Gu Yunru also distinguished between members and non-members while selling milk tea.
Everyone participated very actively and the demand exceeded supply every day.
When Kang Keren saw Gu Yunru come in, she handed the materials in her hand to the housekeeper beside her, and walked forward with a warm look on her face to greet Gu Yunru.
"I saw you were so busy and didn't want to disturb you. If you feel that there are not enough people, you can hire two more people." Gu Yunru sat aside and pursed her lips, watching Kang Keren who was busy and exhausted and didn't even have time to put on makeup.
"No need. These people have cooperated well. If two new people come, we will be so busy that we won't know what to do." Kang Keren took a break from her busy schedule and poured a cup of tea in front of her. Seeing her worried look, she asked, "Yunru, why did you come here today?"
Seeing her probing eyes, he curled his lips slightly, "Something happened to Uncle Shen. He was a first-rank admiral after all, but he was dragged down by those people of the Grand Chancellor. Someone also tipped him off and told him to go to Yangzhou first. I didn't expect Uncle Shen to be fooled. I was about to go to Rong Zhen to discuss this matter. I believe Uncle Shen must be innocent."
Gu Yunru said seriously. Kang Keren's eyes turned and she chuckled, "I also believe in Lord Shen. He must be innocent." Then she filled her cup of tea. At the same time, Gu Yunru asked casually, "Have you seen Qingfeng?" Kang Keren's hands obviously trembled while pouring the tea, as if the question was very sudden.
