"Your Highness, are you sure that these are the only people around you who are skilled in the mystical arts? There must be others."
After she said this, she felt something was wrong and quickly tried to make amends, "I've probably already done some testing, and no one meets my requirements. I'd better go find someone else to help me, so as not to embarrass His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Du Changming didn't understand her first sentence. How could Gu Yunni know how many people were around him?
Not to mention Gu Yunni, even he himself doesn't know.
He immediately cast a glance at the head eunuch, "Are these the only ones here? Since Miss Gu has ordered everyone to come out, then do as she's told and don't dawdle."
Du Changming didn't know what was going on, so he had to ask the eunuch for help.
The eunuch also had a look of distress on his face. This had nothing to do with him. He was just a servant. How could he know so much?
"Your Highness, you are really putting me in a difficult position. These are the only people I know about. If anyone is missing, it must be Aruo, who always accompanies you. Could you please call her over?"
If he really wanted to accomplish what Gu Yunni had in mind, it would probably put the prince in a difficult position. After all, that person was the prince's close associate, and he had only met him a few times.
Du Changming suddenly understood and looked embarrassed. "Right, right, right, then quickly call them over. I told everyone to come, so he is no exception."
The eunuch looked embarrassed and didn't know how to tell the prince, but in the end he still had to tell the truth.
"But...Aruo went out to do something for you, and I don't know where she went. Why don't you call her back or give me a place to go? I really don't know where to look for her."
"roll!"
Upon hearing this, Du Changming's face became even uglier. These people are as stupid as pigs. Why do they have to rely on themselves for everything!
"Yun Ni, don't worry. Just sit for a while. He will probably be back soon. He never takes long to get things done. He does have some skills. He can be said to be the most powerful person I have. Maybe he can help you."
Du Changming looked at Gu Yunni with an apologetic smile on his face.
Gu Yunni smiled slightly and nodded in agreement, "Okay, Your Highness, don't worry. I'm asking for your help, so it's only natural that you wait as long as you can."
This kind of thing cannot be rushed. If you appear too anxious, it will seem a bit deliberate. It is better to take it slow.
Looking at the eunuchs still kneeling at the foot of the hall, Gu Yunni felt sorry for them and tried to persuade them, "It's not a big deal. If they delay, they will be delayed. Don't blame them. Have some tea."
Although this person might not be a good person, Gu Yunni never thought of letting him be punished because of her.
"Yeah." Du Changming gave Gu Yunni face and stopped blaming her.
He took the tea handed to him by Gu Yunni and drank it very sweetly.
She is more sensible at this moment.
"You drink too. Don't be polite in the East Palace. Your business is my business. I can handle it for you. By the way, what do you want someone who knows the mysterious arts for? Can you tell me?" Du Changming was also polite to Gu Yunni.
If it was a major matter, he could find a way to find more people who knew the mystical arts.
If it's not a big deal, there's no need to waste that time.
He still had confidence in Aruo, believing that one person could defeat many people.
Gu Yunni had already prepared an excuse, and now she spoke it without hesitation, "Didn't I promise His Majesty that I would resolve the matter in the lake? Naturally, I have to take it to heart. Finding someone who knows the mystical arts is also to protect me. Although I have the Imperial Master, finding a few more people will give me peace of mind."
The prince might be trying to find out on purpose, or he might just be curious. Gu Yunni didn't care. As long as she stated the reason, no one would be able to find any fault with it.
"Originally, I could do it by myself, but Kyoto is so big and time is tight, so I can only ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for help. After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has many talented people under his command, and maybe one of them is the person I'm looking for." Gu Yunni explained her thoughts and said nice things to prevent him from getting suspicious.
Du Changming felt happy after hearing this and of course he didn't think too much about it.
"It's right to come to me for this kind of thing. Others may not be able to do it for you. Just like the prince, if he had someone under his control, you wouldn't have come to me." Du Changming became proud.
Since Gu Yunni has come to him for help, it means that Sheng Mingyu does not have the ability.
Gu Yunni suppressed the nausea in her heart and replied, "Although the prince is powerful, he is still not as good as the crown prince. I just hope that this time I can find someone I can use. Otherwise, I might be in danger when I am doing things."
But she didn't dare say this in front of Sheng Mingyu.
Even if he knew that he was lying, Sheng Mingyu would probably be furious.
"Don't worry, I'll leave this matter to you. Even if I can't find you this time, I will do my best to help you. Don't worry, I will never let you face danger. When the time comes, go find Father and buy some time."
He was very courageous and agreed to everything Gu Yunni said without even asking for the emperor's permission.
Gu Yunni was surprised. If the country was handed over to him, it would have been destroyed long ago.
"Your Highness, be careful with your words. His Majesty's words were spoken with such force that they cannot be changed at will. I dare not overthink this. I only hope to find someone who can be of use. I don't want His Majesty to change his decision for me."
Du Changming was very brave, but Gu Yunni was not so brave, so she quickly stopped him.
If these words were to reach the emperor's ears, the prince might be fine, but he would be dead.
Gu Yunni sat in the Prince's Mansion and waited for a long time. Finally, she got some useful information and met that person.
"That's him!"
Du Changming also felt that the atmosphere was tense. After all the trouble he had finally waited for the person to come, and he didn't have to sit there in such awkwardness anymore.
This was the first time he felt so embarrassed since he took the throne of the crown prince.
In the past, those people would flatter him, except Gu Yunni, who said nothing.
Du Changming pushed Aruo in front of Gu Yunni and said, "He is the most capable person around me. He does everything perfectly and has never caused any trouble. Try his ability and see if it meets your requirements. If not, I will look for another one."
If you were to ask which of his subordinates he likes the most, it would definitely be A Ruo.
Gu Yunni was very sensible and did not expose Du Changming's plan. Although she felt disgusted, she could endure it. "He looks like a handsome man with a strong character. He should be able to do things well, but I still need to give it a try. This kind of thing can't be decided by my words. It still depends on his real ability."
