Chapter 372 The Empress Only Wants to Love One Person (23)



"I've learned that the person who delivered the message to Master Yun was a woman, not from Prince Qi's Mansion, and is now dead."

"Dead?"

Fei Wan's heart sank, and he continued to ask, "Where are her family members?"

"She has no family and was never wealthy. She used to work in Prince Qi's mansion, but was kicked out for her dishonest behavior."

"Just a few days ago, he fell into the water and died."

Wutong frowned, as if he felt something was wrong.

Fei Wan knew what she was thinking.

This is all too much of a coincidence.

Even though Prince Qi coveted Yun Qing, he remained extremely obedient because of Fei Wan.

It was definitely not her who took the initiative to invite him. I'm afraid that the two of them were asked out separately for other reasons.

Yun Qing's...attitude is enough to prove everything.

He had come here out of courtesy because of the invitation from Prince Qi, but Prince Qi was influenced by others' words and treated him...

This also explains why there were no guards around Prince Qi when the incident happened.

Yun Qing was a person who would rather die than surrender, and after a few fights between the two of them, they would probably fall into the water.

So he didn't want to tell the truth so as not to affect the relationship between the sisters.

This is consistent with Fei Wan's previous conjecture. As for the other conjecture...

Wutong saw what she wanted to ask, and then he said something else:

"Your Majesty has another order. I have investigated in the capital, but I have not found any clues."

Wutong left the words unsaid, then curled his lips and said, "But according to your instructions, we sent our people to the border, and we found some clues."

Regarding the destruction of the country in the plot, Fei Wan thought about it and felt that Feng Qili alone was not enough to make the original owner so embarrassed, unless someone was fanning the flames.

Wutong didn't say anything else, and Feiwan didn't ask her any more questions.

Fei Wan knew that relying solely on these superficial facts would not completely bring Feng Jinlin down, and that it would take time to delve deeper.

Fei Wan suddenly thought of something and narrowed her eyes:

"It seems like today is a day off..."

Wutong didn't react: "Ah? It is indeed..."

Wutong suddenly realized: "I will invite the Prime Minister here right away."

Without Fei Wan's instructions, she leaned over and walked out.

As soon as Gu Ruozhao stepped into the hall, Wutong skillfully closed the door for them.

It was clearly just an ordinary conversation, but the moment the door closed, Fei Wan saw Wutong's understanding look.

she……

During this period of time, it seemed that... Gu Ruozhao was summoned to the palace too many times.

But... she was really just doing official business, and we can't misunderstand her just because she has a "criminal record".

Gu Ruozhao...would he think so too?

Fei Wan cast his gaze dimly on Gu Ruozhao.

Gu Ruozhao noticed this gaze and found that he often could not see through the current emperor.

For example, at this moment...

He didn't know what she was thinking.

But... it's pretty cute.

Gu Ruozhao was almost forgetting what she was like before.

Gu Ruozhao curled his lips:

"His Majesty."

Gu Ruozhao interrupted Fei Wan's wandering thoughts.

He walked closer to Feiwan, with a bit of helplessness:

"What do you need me to do this time?"

Seeing how skilled he was, Fei Wan felt a little ashamed.

Every time it was a day off, Fei Wan would summon him to the palace, which was a disguised way of depriving him of his vacation.

What Fei Wan wanted him to do was something she couldn't do herself. She had already offended the ministers by giving lectures before. Therefore, she couldn't propose any reforms in related areas.

Gu Ruozhao knew her dilemma at the time and agreed without any hesitation.

But this time, Fei Wan shook his head.

"No, we're together this time."

Gu Ruozhao was slightly startled, "Together...?"
