"Yes, there is still some father-daughter relationship between us. Although I don't want to acknowledge you, if you really have something to ask for, you can just tell me."
It must be no small matter to be able to make Sheng Mingyu suppress his temper.
"this……"
Marquis Changping blushed.
He only wanted to rush over and stop Sheng Mingyu and Gu Yunni, and didn't even think of using any excuse.
Now that someone has asked him this question, he is put in a difficult situation and doesn’t know what to say.
"My Lord, have you not thought about what to say yet? Then please don't stand in front of me. Let me enter the palace first, okay? This matter of mine is not a trivial matter and cannot be delayed."
"Yes, Lord, we will both come out. If there is something serious, we can talk about it later. Are you more important than His Majesty? Please don't be so foolish as to offend your superiors."
The two men did not give Marquis Changping a chance. After saying a few words, they were about to leave. Marquis Changping was extremely anxious.
If he fails to complete this mission, Du Changming will probably scold him again.
"No, I do have something to talk to you about, especially Yun Ni. Your eldest brother has been seriously ill recently and wants to see you. Do you have time to go back?"
Marquis Changping racked his brains to come up with this excuse.
Fortunately, her son was indeed sick, and even if Gu Yunni went back to check, she could not find anything wrong.
"You know, his recovery was due to your luck, but you've been away from the Marquis' Mansion for a long time. If you don't go back, your brother will probably die in the mansion!"
Everything he said was true, and the more he spoke, the sadder he became. He had begged Gu Yunni countless times, but she just wouldn't give him face.
If Gu Yunni doesn't go back, she will lose her son.
"My Lord, please don't joke with me. Do you know that your whole family used to borrow my luck? I don't owe you anything. What does Kou Yun'an's serious illness have to do with me?"
Gu Yunni sneered. She really had given him too much face, which was why he came to her again and again.
"Yun Ni! How could you be so cruel? He's your brother. You grew up together. Don't you have any feelings for him at all? If you don't save him, he will die."
Marquis Changping was shocked.
He didn't know why Gu Yunni was so hostile to them? She didn't even care that her brother, who had grown up with her, was dying.
Even if a person's character wants to change, it cannot change so quickly.
Gu Yunni rolled her eyes and refused to answer.
She had made her words so clear, but he still didn't understand.
"I don't care what you think in your heart. Anyway, today, you must come back to the Marquis' Mansion with me. Your brother wants to see you one last time. Even if he has to tie you up, he will bring you back!"
With multiple pressures piling up on him, Marquis Changping could no longer bear it.
He has raised Gu Yunni for so many years, don’t you believe that he can’t even do such a small thing?
As soon as he finished speaking, a large group of guards appeared behind him.
Sheng Mingyu was shocked. This was the prince's mansion. How did he bring so many people in?
"My Lord, you may have forgotten that His Majesty just gave this prince an army two days ago. If you insist on brandishing swords and guns in the prince's mansion, don't blame them for all being killed here!"
Sheng Mingyu's face turned cold.
He wouldn't blame him for minor fights, but Marquis Changping was so bold that he really didn't take him seriously!
"Mo Qing! Close the gate!"
Marquis Changping was furious and was about to curse back when he heard the sound of the mansion door closing, which brought him to his senses.
This happened in front of Sheng Mingyu, how dare he do such a disobedient act?
"Your Highness, calm down. It's all your fault that I wasn't sober enough just now. I didn't intend to be presumptuous in front of you. I just wanted to take Yun Ni back and let her see her brother."
Marquis Changping hastily admitted his mistake, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all. He was just glad that he hadn't done anything yet.
Otherwise, if it gets to His Majesty's ears, I'll probably lose my head.
"Humph! Yun Ni is now my prince's consort. You can't just order her around. Besides, don't you know that she's already left the Marquis' Mansion? When did the Marquis become so shameless?"
Sheng Mingyu didn't give any face at all.
We're about to fight, and you still want to beg for mercy?
"It just so happens that this prince is about to go to the palace to tell His Majesty about the assassination attempt. My Lord, please come with me. This prince wants you to explain what happened today. Is there someone behind this?"
Sheng Mingyu gave a wink, and Mo Qing stepped forward, grabbed the Marquis of Changping, and was about to take him to the palace.
He didn't care about offending any dignitaries, as long as he was right to listen to the prince.
"Don't! Your Highness, you really misunderstood. How could I possibly be involved in your assassination? Moreover, this incident today was not directed at you. I was simply too impulsive. Please forgive me for once!"
Marquis Changping's face turned pale. He really had bad luck. Why did things get more confusing the more he talked?
"Yun Ni! Please help your father to beg for mercy. After all, we have a father-daughter relationship. I raised you for such a long time. Don't you even want to repay my kindness?"
Seeing that Mo Qing was about to push him into the carriage, he had no choice but to place his hopes on Gu Yunni.
He knew that Gu Yunni would not side with him, but she probably didn't want to embarrass herself in front of His Majesty.
Didn't she still want to marry Sheng Mingyu? Reputation was the most important thing.
Gu Yunni looked ahead, not stopping. "My Lord, please don't try to get close to me. I'm just the Crown Prince's Consort in name only. I haven't married the Crown Prince yet. Besides, even if we did, I wouldn't be able to help you. You'd better fend for yourself."
She was still concerned about her reputation, otherwise she would have killed the people in Changping Marquis' Mansion herself. How could she possibly plead for him?
"My Lord, don't think that I am being willful. Do you still remember the guards you brought with you just now? You are not worthy of having private soldiers!"
Even if Sheng Mingyu dies, he must make Changping Hou understand his mistake.
After saying this, he took Gu Yunni into the carriage, leaving Marquis Changping alone standing there in a daze.
He asked why Du Changming had arranged several guards around him before he came out. It turned out that he was setting a trap for him!
He was left speechless and unable to refute at all.
We can't expose Du Changming, so we should talk about these things in front of His Majesty.
"Why did you two suddenly think of coming to see me? Did you think about what happened before? I knew you were smart. Why don't you follow my method?"
As soon as the emperor saw Sheng Mingyu, he couldn't help laughing.
In fact, he was also satisfied with Gu Yunni, but he hated her proud and unwilling to admit her mistake the most.
"Your Majesty has misunderstood. We are not here to grant you a marriage, but to address the assassination attempt on our prince's behalf. We should have set out today..."
Sheng Mingyu recounted what had happened that morning, and the emperor's face grew darker the more he listened.
How could he not figure out what was going on?
