Marquis Changping's expression changed with every word Gu Yunni said.
At first, I felt relieved when I heard that it was handed over to Du Changming and Sheng Mingyu.
The prince should be on his side, but on the other hand, he thought of the alliance between the two men, and finally, when he heard the word "Your Majesty", he began to feel uneasy.
Do you really want to find out the real culprit behind this? Then you will be in trouble.
But he was working for the crown prince at the time. If I tell Your Majesty this, would Your Majesty believe it?
"How can I possibly help? However, this matter concerns His Majesty, so I should indeed ask more questions. As a minister, isn't it my duty to share His Majesty's worries? Why don't you tell me if you have any other clues? I'll see if my men can find them."
Marquis Changping did not reveal any information about himself and was still trying to find out information from Gu Yunni.
He didn't know what Gu Yunni was thinking, but at least the clue was in his hands, so he couldn't let it go. It was better than thinking about it silently in the Marquis' Mansion all day.
"Then I'd better not trouble you. In fact, the prince hasn't got any accurate clues. I came to you just to try my luck. Since you don't know either, why bother? Just deal with your official business." After saying this, Gu Yunni stood up and wanted to leave the Marquis' Mansion.
She was not in a hurry because she knew that even if she wanted to leave, Marquis Changping would not let her go.
"No, no! Yunni!" Marquis Changping was a little anxious. He stood up from the stool with Gu Yunni and knocked over the teacup next to him.
But he didn't care about these little things at all. He was really afraid that Sheng Mingyu would find out the truth, and then these two people would not let him go.
"It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that you don't say a word, so how can I help you? I also want to share the worries for the prince. After all, I am half the son-in-law of the marquisate, right? How about this, we can do two things at the same time, and share the clues we get." Marquis Changping looked at Gu Yunni expectantly, hoping that she would agree to his request.
Although he had not thought about doing anything, he could still cause trouble for Sheng Mingyu based on his clues.
As long as he can save his own life, he doesn't care about anything else, even if His Majesty wants to know the truth.
"It's okay. This matter is also related to the Crown Prince. I guess the Crown Prince will pay more attention to it than the Crown Prince. Marquis Changping, you should have a good rest at home. If there is anything that we young people can't do, we will come to you then."
This time, Gu Yunni did not give Marquis Changping any more chances. After saying this, she left the Marquis's mansion without even pausing.
Gu Yunni suddenly changed her mind. It would be fine to continue playing like this. When the time comes and she moves in front of His Majesty, she will know whether this Marquis will collapse.
Isn't he always causing trouble for them? Then just deal with it directly and put an end to the trouble forever.
"Hey! Yun Ni!"
Changping followed Gu Yunni for a long time. Gu Yunni just got on the carriage and didn't say a word, as if she was deaf.
The wife of the Marquis of Changping and Kou Mingxue also kept running behind him, having no idea what the Marquis of Changping was doing.
Kou Mingxue even thought her father was sick. Did he ignore them without taking care of Yun Ni? Why did he still try to please them? Didn't their Marquisate need face?
I finally became the eldest daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, but now I am going to be stepped on by Gu Yunni?
"My Lord! What's wrong with you? Why are you so anxious? If you have encountered any difficulties, you might as well tell me. Maybe I can help you." Mrs. Kou came up and told him her problem.
It was the first time she saw Marquis Changping so anxious, as if he had caused a huge trouble.
But considering his status as a marquis, what could make him so anxious?
"That girl is ungrateful. No matter how long you pursue her, what can you do? That girl will not take you to heart. If there is any problem, our family has to solve it. Your Majesty does not have to worry about it alone." The wife of the Marquis of Changping did not forget to ask questions while flattering Gu Yunni.
What she least wanted was for Gu Yunni to come back. Although there were areas where she needed to ask Gu Yunni for help, she just didn't want to bow her head in front of Gu Yunni.
"You're just a woman, what do you know? Don't follow me around. Go do whatever you want. All you do all day is complain about this and that. If you have the ability, you could improve yourself a little and make me less angry!"
Marquis Changping frowned and couldn't help but get angry at the two of them.
I felt upset when I saw the mother and daughter.
If they hadn't been picking on Gu Yunni, would Gu Yunni still be able to help her?
He had doted on Gu Yunni before, so how could she not have any fatherly affection for him? It was all because of these two people!
"My Lord..."
"Dad, how can you say that?"
When Kou Mingxue and the wife of the Marquis of Changping heard this, they widened their eyes in grievance.
Why did it come down on them? They were clearly thinking about the Marquis of Changping.
Marquis Changping returned to his study alone and sat there from dusk to dawn.
He had to find a way to get through this smoothly.
Otherwise, if His Majesty hears about it, he will be in big trouble.
"Why is the Marquis of Changping here? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been very busy lately, and he has also received a mission from His Majesty. He really has no time to meet with external officials. If the Marquis of Changping has anything to say, please tell me. I will go in and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to confirm whether you can come in."
Marquis Changping thought for a long time and finally decided to confess to the prince.
I did all these things for him before, and now it is about to be exposed. The prince can't just sit there and do nothing.
At worst, I can just go to the palace and throw the jar into the air. Although the prince is the heir apparent to the throne, His Majesty has always been fond of him. If I tell him, the prince might also be in trouble.
"Okay! Then I'll trouble you, sir." However, Queen Changping did not choose to lose her temper at this time, and handed over the silver.
If the problem can be solved peacefully, he still hopes for stability. As the crown prince of a country, he cannot afford to take risks.
When Du Changming heard the news, he couldn't help but frown. This Marquis of Changping really didn't know the rules.
Did they forget what they were planning earlier? Why did they still have the time to come looking for him? Didn't they know that they were in dire straits right now?
Although the prince did not think of asking Marquis Changping to take the blame, he did not want to be implicated in the matter. Who knows whether what Marquis Changping did was clean or not.
"Marquis Changping? How can he find the time to come and see me? Just make excuses and say that I'm busy right now. And also tell the Marquis not to come and see me so often these days. If others find out, bad rumors will spread."
