"I hope your Majesty understands."
The emperor and his minister parted on bad terms, but the emperor became more convinced that what the imperial teacher said was true.
He understood the character of the Imperial Master and knew that he would only be so bold when he felt no guilt.
Moreover, the imperial teacher is loyal to the royal family and will never lie to him.
"Yun Ni, what do you think His Majesty means? Does he really want to pass the throne to me? But I am not in a legitimate position right now. If he supports me, he should recognize me first."
Sheng Mingyu has been troubled by this matter these days. He doesn't need to care about the emperor's thoughts, but because he is his father, he still wants to know.
Gu Yunni has been happy these days. As long as she gets the approval of His Majesty, someone will cover Sheng Mingyu for whatever he does in the future.
"Don't think about it! You're so smart, can't you figure out the reason? Isn't it just that His Majesty recognizes your identity, but can't help you openly. Many things require you to fight for it on your own."
Sheng Mingyu didn't know why he had been so troubled these past few days. Some things had already been on the verge of happening.
"Forget it! There's no point worrying about this matter. This prince has already made preparations for the follow-up. Even if His Majesty doesn't allow it, I have to act."
After comforting him, Gu Yunni returned to the store.
However, her requirements for taking business were much higher, for fear that someone like Qin Yanchen would appear again.
The Second Prince was essentially using Sheng Mingyu and looked down on Gu Yunni for following him.
When I learned that Gu Yunni had a shop, I came here following the smell.
"Hey! Isn't this the renowned future Crown Prince's Consort? This prince has been back in the capital lately, and I've heard a lot of rumors about you and the Crown Prince. What seductive tricks do you have that could possibly earn the Crown Prince's sympathy?"
Gu Yunni's expression didn't change, and it was obvious that she didn't take the person in front of her seriously.
She could still differentiate between intentionally causing trouble and being truly close to someone.
"I wonder what the Second Prince has come here for today? If you encounter anything strange, I can handle it."
The second prince is gentle and reasonable in front of others, but in front of Sheng Mingyu and Gu Yunni, he doesn't pretend at all.
He directly slammed the table in front of Gu Yunni into two pieces, showing his disdain for Gu Yunni.
"You really don't take this prince seriously! I am a prince. Without the imperial decree granting marriage, you are just an ordinary person. You should be polite!"
Gu Yunni was not afraid at all. She raised her head and faced the second prince's gaze.
"Where did the Second Prince get angry? He has nowhere to vent, so he has to pick on me. How about I call His Royal Highness the Crown Prince over? Let him talk some sense into my affairs?"
The second prince hesitated and said nothing.
He really couldn't understand, besides Sheng Mingyu, who else did Gu Yunni rely on? How could she dare to be so bold with him?
The atmosphere was tense, and Gu Yunni spoke first, "Second Prince, please be careful when you go out recently. I see that your forehead is dark, which is an ominous sign. You may think I'm cursing you, but in my line of work, I can tell."
The Second Prince was already angry, and Gu Yunni's words made him even more angry.
After finally returning to Kyoto, who would want to live a miserable life? They all came here to move to the next level!
"What? What else could you do besides cursing this prince? The Imperial Master didn't say that this prince would be unlucky recently. Are you deliberately trying to stir up trouble?!"
The second prince was followed by many people. He was about to ask the guards to come in and raid Gu Yunni's shop. Fortunately, the imperial teacher appeared at this time and confirmed for Gu Yunni.
"Don't be angry, Second Prince. The Crown Princess is right. I just didn't say it before. It just so happens that I came here today on His Majesty's orders to invite the Crown Princess into the palace."
The Second Prince was skeptical, but he didn't dare to ask. "Why did His Majesty ask her to come to the palace? Can I go and see for myself? I have nothing to do today, so I should pay my respects to His Majesty."
Everyone knows the status of the national teacher. If he says something wrong, it will probably make him angry.
"I am only an ordinary official. How can I know what Your Majesty thinks? You can ask him in person."
The Second Prince hesitated, "But..."
The Imperial Master did not want to offend him, but was also unwilling to get close to him, so he just gave him a few words of advice casually.
To prove the truth of her words, Gu Yunni added, "Second Prince, you'd better behave yourself. Your bad luck is probably related to entering the palace. If you don't believe me, just go in and take a look. I won't stop you."
The Second Prince was extremely willful. "I don't believe it! I must enter the palace. I want to test you. Is what you said true or false?"
Gu Yunni was helpless. Those who didn't listen to advice deserved it.
But this was also what Gu Yunni thought. If he didn't enter the palace, how could he know his abilities?
"Okay! It's up to you then. We're about to leave, so why don't we go together?"
"good."
The Imperial Master raised his eyebrows and saw through Gu Yunni's plan at a glance, feeling like laughing.
The second prince has fallen into a trap and cannot easily escape.
Several people got on a carriage and entered the palace together. As soon as they entered the palace gate, the second prince was stopped.
After the guards questioned him, the second prince became so angry that his face turned blue.
"Can't you see who I am? I'm the Second Prince! Why are you stopping me from entering the palace to pay my respects to my father?"
"Second Prince, don't be ridiculous. I naturally know you. However, His Majesty ordered only the Crown Prince's Consort to enter the palace, and not you."
The second prince talked outside the door for a long time but still did not step into the palace.
Gu Yunni couldn't bear to watch this and didn't know what the emperor meant. He didn't even give face to his own son. Wasn't this just bringing hatred to himself?
"Little eunuch, if it's convenient, why not let the Second Prince in first? After all, he just wants to fulfill his filial duty. The Second Prince and I came together, so it should be no problem for us to go in together."
"Yes, why don't we just let him in first? I'll talk to His Majesty about this, so you don't need to explain. We're all going to see His Majesty anyway."
Seeing Gu Yunni and the Imperial Master together, the Second Prince felt very embarrassed and almost turned around and left.
When did he need someone to beg for mercy?
"Alright, since you two have said so, then you should go in with the Second Prince first. It just so happens that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also in the palace."
The guards at the door were used to judging people by their appearance and knew that Sheng Mingyu had been in favor recently, so they were particularly respectful to Gu Yunni.
If the Second Prince hadn't still had his wits about him, he would have cursed long ago.
Ever since the second prince entered the palace, he has had a sullen face and never said a word.
Gu Yunni and the Imperial Master covered their mouths and laughed secretly.
"I've already told you that your current luck is not suitable for entering the palace. Why don't you listen to my advice? The Imperial Master and I are equally capable, and what I say is usually right."
Gu Yunni brought up what had just happened again, which made the second prince think more.
It seemed that what she said was right. If I had listened to her advice, I wouldn't be so embarrassed.
