When I woke up, my whole family was in rebellion!

Chapter 36 The Emperor Returns
However, just because he was able to stand still, it didn't mean that other people could too.

"I didn't expect that this matter was actually done by the second prince. He has no grievances or enmity with the princess, but he has such a cruel hand, it is really frightening!"

As soon as Eunuch Liu heard about this, he hurried back and told Gu Xingzhi.These days, the princess was attacked and was confined to Prince Huai's mansion, so His Royal Highness had not seen the princess for a long time.

Although they couldn't see anyone, they hadn't been idle during this time and had been secretly investigating the matter.

Speaking of which, Duke Huai's mansion was able to catch the assassin who was assassinated for the second time so easily, and they had a part to contribute.After all, those assassins were in ambush outside, and they didn't plan to strike so early, so as not to startle the snake.

It was the people they arranged who discovered the traces of the assassins and pushed them from behind, which made these assassins directly exposed in front of Prince Huai's mansion.

It's just that they didn't expect the patrol camp to move so fast, and they found the murderer before they could push the boat further.

"Father Huang returned from his southern tour, and this matter will definitely be settled."

The prince's assassination of the princess would be a big joke if it got out, and the royal family's face would be wiped out.Even the prince is suppressing this matter now, and there is no rumor about it.

Gu Xingzhi understands what the prince thinks, he just wants to wait for all the evidence to be collected, and to catch them all in one go, so that the second prince can't turn himself around completely.

It's just a pity that the prince is indecisive and greedy, and the more he wants to get, the more he will lose.

Now, because the father changed midway, he ended his southern tour ahead of schedule and returned.After he comes back, he will definitely suppress this matter and prevent the common people from watching the jokes of the royal family.

No matter how serious the second prince's mistakes are, he is still a prince after all, representing the face of the royal family.As for Xie Lingyun being favored, she is also a princess with a different surname, so it cannot be compared.

After such a reminder, Eunuch Liu also realized that this matter might not be able to shake the Second Prince, so he tentatively asked, "What does Your Highness mean?"

Gu Xingzhi's eyes dimmed, and he said coldly: "Since no one wants to let this matter get out, let's help them."

For every member of the royal family, the face of the royal family is more important than the sky.Even the crown prince, even if he caught the handle of the second prince, because of this, he hesitated.

But Gu Xingzhi never cared about these things. Ever since he took Wushisan by mistake, his whole body has undergone earth-shaking changes.

When he was tied up in the room alone, enduring the pain of addiction, no one came to see him, and no one came to help him, not even the imperial physician stepped into the Third Prince's Mansion.

Because his aloof father thinks that the face of the royal family is more important than human life.Eating Wushi powder by mistake is already a huge scandal, if people see the prince's ugly state of being addicted and unable to control himself, then it is better to let Gu Xingzhi die!
Eunuch Liu looked at Gu Xingzhi's expression and became cold again, knowing that he was remembering the past.

Yes, outsiders only know that the third prince is favored, even if he is often insane, he can still be favored by the emperor.But no one knows what they got in exchange for - this kind of favor, ordinary people are afraid that they will die to bear it!
After Eunuch Liu went out, he quickly arranged it.

Gu Xingzhi is not as indecisive as the crown prince, nor as vicious as the second prince, but he is more self-willed and reckless, as long as he decides to do it, he will do it even if he goes up the mountain of swords and goes down into the sea of ​​fire.

Therefore, outsiders can't guess what he wants to do, and they don't know what he can do.

The unknown enemy is the most frightening.

"Have you heard? The person who assassinated the Princess was actually arranged by the Second Prince!"

"What? How is it possible? The second prince is the emperor's son. Okay, what are you doing to assassinate the princess?"

"There's nothing impossible about this! I heard from my guy that the second prince couldn't see how the princess would get close to the prince, and he was afraid that the prince would get the support of Prince Huai's residence, so he killed him!"

"By the way, my guy is a distant cousin of the family that delivered food to the Second Prince's Mansion. What he said must be right!"

The news that the second prince sent someone to assassinate the princess just started to spread in the Yanjing City quietly.In the beginning, it was just some people secretly gossiping, which didn't cause much of a stir.

But later, as more and more people spread the news, even in the tea shops and restaurants, people were discussing it wantonly, and almost everyone in Yanjing City knew about it!
So when the emperor came back from the southern tour, this matter was already spreading in the city of Yanjing, even if a lot of people who spread rumors were arrested behind the prince, it would not help.

If you catch these people, you can control them for a while, but you can't control them for the rest of your life.

"waste!"

As soon as Gu Sheng came back, he slapped Gu Yansheng hard.His subordinates were merciless, Gu Yansheng's face was swollen on the spot, and the corners of his mouth were still bloodshot.

"Father, it's my son who is not doing well, please calm down!"

After Gu Yansheng became the crown prince, he has rarely seen his father so angry.After all, he is the current crown prince, even if he sometimes offends his father, he will take care of his face and not scold him in front of outsiders.

But now, with the Taifu still present, the royal father couldn't bear it, which showed that he was very angry.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Although this matter is the crown prince's fault, the reason for it is the trouble caused by the second prince..." Because the Tai Tuo and the crown prince are related by marriage, they seldom defend each other in front of the emperor.

But this time the emperor was too angry, if he didn't speak for the prince, the prince might be severely punished.

Fortunately, Gu Sheng was just furious, but not confused, "You trash, let you supervise the country, and you caused such a big mess for me, how can you let me rest assured that the country will be in your hands ?”

Gu Yansheng covered his face and raised his head abruptly, "Father?!"

This matter is obviously the second brother's fault, he just failed to supervise and let those rumors spread, why is it his father's fault here?
"As a prince, you should put the royal face first. Don't think that I don't know your little thoughts. I didn't care about them before because they were harmless. But now, you should be sober!"

Gu Sheng was really disappointed with the prince. On the way back from the southern tour, he already knew about the fact that the second prince sent someone to assassinate the princess because of jealousy.

When he arrived at Yanjing City, he deliberately disguised himself and sneaked into the city first.Unexpectedly, the rumors in the Yanjing City were even more widespread, and the second prince's notoriety had reached the point where everyone shouted and beat him!

He wouldn't believe it without the help of the prince.

"But father, this matter was originally the fault of the second brother. I have tried my best to make up for it, but I don't know why, but those rumors still spread."

The prince was really puzzled, why did this matter spread to the people, and there was such an uproar.He really couldn't hold back later, seeing that the rumors were spreading badly, he asked people to mix in and add fuel to the flames, making the second prince's reputation even worse.

Could it be that the emperor knew about such trivial matters? !
