Why didn’t the prince send any one?
"Who knows what he's really thinking? He's probably stingy. Losing one secret guard would be a huge loss. He's always been reluctant to spend a lot of money on this prince."
Men are better at judging other men, especially those as stupid and ignorant as the prince.
The Imperial Master also speculated, "He's just too arrogant. He thinks he can beat the Crown Prince, so he's not panicking at all. But he doesn't know that not everyone is useless."
Gu Yunni slowly shook her head, her tone very helpless. "Alas, the emperor's vision is really poor. Why did he choose such a person as the crown prince? Although I haven't seen the other princes, they should be smarter than the crown prince, otherwise His Majesty would not be afraid of them."
"Indeed, the other princes are very powerful and well-known in Kyoto, but His Majesty is partial and has blocked all the princes' escape routes."
The Imperial Master and Gu Yunni were chatting beside them as if no one was around. These matters concerning the royal family were indeed enough to be discussed.
It's like a topic of conversation after dinner. Your Majesty is smart, but also stupid. At least he has a bad eye for people.
Sheng Mingyu finally joined in, "Your Majesty has deep feelings for the Imperial Concubine, so he takes extra care of her son."
The emperor gave the queen unlimited respect, but gave all his love to the imperial concubine.
The Imperial Master and Gu Yunni both shut their mouths and dared not speak.
What they are talking about now is Sheng Mingyu's biological parents. I wonder if he will have any objections?
Even if they knew about royal affairs, they couldn't know more than Sheng Mingyu.
"Don't overthink it. His Majesty just doesn't know your identity right now. If he knew, he would definitely love you even more."
Gu Yunni and the Imperial Preceptor were embarrassed for a moment and tried to comfort him, "Yeah, there's nothing to worry about. Regardless of whether you are the Imperial Concubine's son or not, His Majesty loves you, so this preference has always been on you."
Sheng Mingyu laughed self-deprecatingly. "When I was little, I met His Majesty. He looked through me as if he were looking at another person. He always said that I looked like the imperial concubine. Later, I understood why."
The mysteries that had remained unsolved since childhood were all solved the day he met Gu Yunni.
However, a master had talked about his fate before, and the seeds of doubt had already been planted in my heart, which could be considered a preparation.
The atmosphere gradually became quiet, and the leader looked a little strange.
He was far away and couldn't hear what they were saying, but he felt more and more scared.
It would be fine if someone was talking, but now it was so quiet, as if it was foreshadowing my own death.
The sky grew dark, and Gu Yunni began to yawn. Sheng Mingyu finally urged her on, unwilling to watch this farce any longer.
"Mo Qing, stop teasing him and hurry up. If you can't do it, I will ask the people behind you to come out."
Du Changming’s people will stay here forever.
"Yes." Mo Qing did not dare to delay and used his final killing move.
The leader died on the spot without even having a chance to fight back.
He lay on the ground, his eyes wide open.
I finally realized what the difference between me and Mo Qing is. He has always treated me as a plaything and never taken me seriously.
But he was different, he tried his best.
"Your Highness, what should we do with the rest of them? Should we strangle them all?"
"Leave him alive and let him go back to report the news."
After Sheng Mingyu said this, he got into the prepared carriage.
He was leisurely here. Mo Qing was fighting in the front, and the guards behind him went straight back to the city to get the carriage.
If Du Changming were here, he would definitely collapse.
He used half of his strength, but still couldn't even match a finger of Sheng Mingyu.
Sheng Mingyu's face turned pale, and his heart was no longer as peaceful as before.
It may also be because of the mention of His Majesty and the Imperial Concubine that his emotions fluctuated so greatly.
"When we return to the county government office, we'll go directly to the Marquis of Changping's room. I want to ask them where they got the news that I've gone out!"
Gu Yunni also had a bad look on her face. She had always known that she had no feelings for this family, but no one would force her to death!
"Alright, it's all happening right under our noses, yet you're still trying to be disloyal. You really don't care about your life. Even if there's an imperial decree, what can you do? You can't survive if you keep causing trouble."
In the situation just now, if there hadn't been someone behind Sheng Mingyu, she would not have been able to escape.
Marquis Changping was also stamping his feet anxiously in his mansion at this moment, regretting the decision he had made.
He wanted Gu Yunni to go home and change his fortune, but if she died, where would he find a destined woman?
Just when he was about to ask his guards to look for Gu Yunni, the door outside was suddenly kicked open, and he was so scared that he sat down on the spot.
As expected, one should not do anything that would go against one's conscience. He was afraid that several people would come and take his life.
Sheng Mingyu didn't give him time to react and immediately confirmed the facts. "Marquis Changping, you are so bold that you colluded with outsiders to frame this prince. His Majesty asked you to come here to help, not to cause trouble!"
He was certain in his heart that there would be no one else except him.
Marquis Changping was pale and stammered, unable to speak.
But time soon returned, and he began to act pretentiously, "What are you talking about, Your Highness? I know nothing about this. Why didn't you tell me before you went out? What if you were in danger at this time?"
He couldn't admit it.
Since they are not dead, they should be punished later.
If I admit it now, wouldn't I be throwing my life away?
But he also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Gu Yunni was not dead, the situation in his mansion could still be changed.
Before they could say anything else, the Marquis of Changping spoke up, "From what His Royal Highness just said, are you in danger? Who is so bold? This is in Anyuan County, who dares to touch you? Those guards under your command should be punished for failing to protect their master."
No matter what, he kept talking in a roundabout way.
Sheng Mingyu's expression remained indifferent, and she was not affected by him at all.
"Marquis Changping really has a clever tongue! This prince is asking you a question, don't try to evade it. Why are you colluding with outsiders to harm me? Do you know that even if this prince takes your life, the emperor will not condemn it!"
How stupid! Do you think that just a few words can stop me from saying anything?
If he really did nothing about it because of this sentence, he would be too stupid.
Marquis Changping remained calm. Even though he felt guilty, there was nothing wrong with his outward expression.
He couldn't admit it, or he would be dead.
"Your Highness, you are truly wronging me. It's not that I won't answer, but I haven't done anything. How can I answer you? I know you've been wronged outside, and you're filled with anger. You can't take it out on me for no reason. I'm not your punching bag."
