Chapter 476

The emperor had a generous temperament, so Gu Xi initially thought that the emperor would continue to endure this; however, when he learned that Imperial Concubine Fang died in the fire, he realized.

Now that the external turmoil has subsided, and only peace remains, the emperor has become increasingly impatient with Yuzhou and his father, so he knows what his father planned when he sends him and Duan Rou to visit the capital, but he deliberately follows his father’s plans and allows them to arrange for Imperial Consort Fang to be “burned.”

Waiting until the critical moment before the emperor took action to secretly switch the person and even let Wang Yu’s people burn Imperial Consort Fang to die with their own hands.

To put it bluntly, the emperor’s purpose was to make his father take the lead in sending his troops because of Imperial Consort Fang’s death, by then, the emperor would have logically counterattacked. If he conquered Yuzhou, he would be famous for his conquest, not to mention that it would not be considered a violation of the late emperor’s edict.

However——

What Gu Xi could not figure out was if the emperor was so confident, was he also so confident that Daqi would now have the strength to go to war against Yuzhou?

As far as they know, the emperor asked his ministers to raise funds for the second prince to lead the troops in suppressing the bandits in Jinzhou!

Because of this, Gu Xi has acted without hesitation and scruples for the past few months in the capital thinking that even if the emperor dislikes them because of Wang Yu or he was furious because of Princess Yongle’s death, the emperor could not do anything to them!

The emperor could not afford to go against them, with how the imperial treasury was empty while Wang Yu was ready for everything and only lacked one crucial thing, and that was to “make a name for themselves” before they could take action.

Thus, before his trip to the capital, Gu Xi believed that even the gods were on Wang Yu’s side. He thought that his father had been lying in wait for ten years and finally got this opportunity, unfortunately, he did not expect things to come to this point…

Gu Xi tightened his grip on the scabbard in his hand, walking faster and faster, and his breathing gradually became heavier.

On the other hand, County Princess Duan Rou was still talking and cursing, as she ran. “Insidious, and cunning. He’s lucky he is the emperor for him to do these shameful things!

“As long as we return to Jinzhou smoothly, I’ll let everyone in the world know what kind of face this emperor looks like!”

“Does he think he can pin Grandmother’s death on us? It’s obvious that he’s using someone else’s dirty work!”

County Princess Duan Rou kept on complaining that even the captain guard leading the way felt a headache listening to her, but since Gu Xi did not say anything, he could not say anything either.

When the exit of the forest was near, the captain guard’s eyes lit up and quickly said. “Third Master, County Princess, this subordinate is afraid that someone will approach the camp from the woods so I let three guards guard this side, they have horses!”

With horses, it would be convenient for them to continue their journey to Yuzhou.

Gu Xi quickened his pace and said to County Princess Duan Rou, “Duan Rou, keep up!”

County Princess Duan Rou was a woman and her steps were small; it only took them two steps while she took three, not to mention her physical strength was far inferior to the others, and keeping up with them already covered her forehead in sweat.

However, hearing the captain guard, County Princess Duan Rou’s eyes also lit up, and suddenly she had the strength to hold on. 𝗳𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐰𝐞𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
