After saying that, she snorted: "I didn't expect to encounter such an unlucky thing."
Having said that, Xue Zhiyi probably understood.
Now that Concubine Li was assisting in the management of the six palaces, she naturally had a say in when the palace supplies were distributed. The timing of Zhu'er's collision with Gu Ruxuan was even easier to manipulate.
I thought it was a coincidence, but in the end, it turned out to be someone's careful planning.
Next, in the next few days, a banquet will be held to entertain the Northern Di delegation, and they should also take some action.
She had to inform Huo Wuyou as soon as possible, otherwise his sister would be plotted to death.
…
Three days later, there was a grand banquet in the palace.
The Northern Di delegation attended the banquet, which was extremely lively.
The banquet started after nightfall, and after the emperor finished his court session, he returned to the Changsheng Palace to handle official business.
After being under house arrest for many days, Gu Shichong finally saw the light of day again. As soon as he was released, he was summoned to the palace by the emperor and given a lecture.
When he came out of the Hall of Eternal Life, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a long sigh of relief - no matter what, since it has come to this, then next, no matter what the cost, he must get the position of crown prince.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, and indescribable emotions appeared in his eyes.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.
Shaking away the dark shadow in his eyes, he smiled and called out, "Cousin."
Huo Wuyou was still wearing a red dress, walking leisurely towards the Changsheng Palace.
He also wore a new hair crown with colorful beads hanging on it, which was braided into his high ponytail. His red clothes and black boots were embroidered with gold patterns. He looked as if he had dressed up carefully for tonight's banquet. However, the sachet with a fortune and luck pattern hanging around his waist looked a little out of place.
Seeing that it was Gu Shichong, he bowed and said, "Cousin, it's been a long time since we last met. You are finally released."
Gu Shichong paused for a moment and said: You are really bringing up something that is not related to the topic.
For some reason, although Huo Wuyou was smiling, Gu Shichong always felt that he looked cold. If Huo Wuyou had not been a hopeless playboy since childhood, he would really think that Huo Wuyou was being sarcastic to him.
"What's the matter, cousin?" he asked.
Huo Wuyou folded his arms and complained, "Ever since I started working at the Dali Temple, I've been fed up with all these trivial matters. My uncle always thinks I'm unreliable and keeps asking about things. If I can't explain the official business clearly, he'll scold me."
He sighed and lowered his voice, "I've been so anxious today that I can't even enjoy the banquet."
Hearing this, Gu Shichong laughed out loud and patted him on the shoulder: "You are already an adult, it's time to behave properly. Your father is also concerned about you."
Huo Wuyou sighed again: "State affairs are already busy, why would my uncle bother with all this effort?"
After that, he asked Gu Shichong: "Hey, where are you going, cousin?"
Gu Shichong only replied, "There's still some time before the banquet begins, so it's a good time to go to the library. Don't waste time here, go see the emperor."
After saying this, the two said goodbye.
The smile on Huo Wuyou's face suddenly turned cold. He half-closed his auspicious eyes and looked at Gu Shichong's back without saying a word.
The library? Why did he have a bad feeling?
