Chapter 33
Didn't rub it off?
Gu Xiurong was suspicious, but he didn't care, and withdrew his hand.

"Leave it to the Ministry of Punishment for investigation, and this matter will be difficult."

Xu Jue and Gu Xiurong looked at each other, and they both saw through the strangeness.

"This person is a great arsonist. He picked up a lotus building. It's hard to doubt that she didn't come here on purpose. She's still a woman."

Xu Jue was thoughtful: "The owner of Lianhualou is the Yan family. Now that the Squibs have been found, the Yan family will not be able to explain this time."

"It's not just the Yan family that's hard to explain. The Holy Majesty banned fire, and the Yan family blatantly opposed it. Where did so many raw materials come from? In Jiangling city or outside the city? Who bought it from? What's the use of making it? This follows the vines. Go down, don't know what will bring out."

The two of them knew very well that the master behind the Yan family was Prince Rui, and it was up to the Holy Majesty how to handle this matter.

Late at night, curfew.

In the alleys of Gangneung Seongseo City.

The woman's whole body was wrapped in a wide cloak, and half of her face was exposed in the moonlight. Soon, footsteps came from the alley, and she turned her head, showing a trace of shame on her pale face: "Miss."

Hidden in the darkness, the girl said, "Is the injury serious?"

The voice is mellow and crisp, and it sounds young.

The woman lowered her eyes: "It's a small injury, but it's just hurting Miss, Xia Yu is ashamed."

"How did you get hurt?"

Xia Yudao: "I was ordered to lurk in the Lotus Tower for many days. The guards of the Gong family found me when I started today. The man was very skilled. I was accidentally injured. The matter of the Lotus Tower is not trivial. I was afraid that I would be searched after the delay. This is the way When I left the city, I never wanted to see Miss in the temple, but fortunately Miss took action and they didn't find me."

The girl approached, revealing a delicate and beautiful face: "The matter of the Lotus Tower is just the beginning, and Prince Rui will definitely think that this matter was intentionally done by them. Good show."

Xia Yu lowered her eyes: "Miss is very cunning."

The corners of Gu Mingzhu's lips curled into a smile, which was slightly cold: "The prince is seriously ill and is bedridden, and he is about to die. Who doesn't covet the position in the East Palace? They bite each other, and the emperor is already suspicious. The harder they bite, the more suspicious he becomes." The more serious it gets, at this time, we will push Yun Zhao out."

Xia Yudao: "Yun Zhao is both civil and military, and has outstanding abilities. The Holy One will definitely like such a prince."

"Of course he likes it." Gu Mingzhu smiled: "How is the investigation going?"

"It's been a long time, but it has already begun."

She nodded and said: "Be careful in what you do these days, don't make any trouble."

"My subordinate understands."

At noon the next day, Gu Mingzhu was looking through the Gu family's shop in Jiangling when Chun'er rushed in, sweating profusely, "Miss! Something serious happened!"

Apart from the Lotus Tower, what other major events can there be?
This girl is just bluffing.

Gu Mingzhu didn't raise her head, she concentrated on the calculations and asked, "What happened?"

Chun'er said: "I just went to Dongshi to buy pastries, and the common people are saying that Eldest Young Master and Young Master Yun are fighting in the palace!"

"What?" Gu Mingzhu raised her head suddenly: "Why did they fight?"

"I heard that the Holy Majesty is going to give Young Master Yun a marriage, saying that he has made great achievements in Qingzhou, and he will be rewarded."

Gu Mingzhu thought that Qingzhou Yunzhao had indeed made great achievements, and it was understandable for the Holy Majesty to reward him, and said, "What does this have to do with brother?"

"It's a big deal! Young Master Yun begs the Holy One for a marriage, and wants to marry Miss!"

Gu Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, eyes narrowed: "You said, Yun Zhao asked to marry me?"

"That's right! As soon as the young master got angry, he beat up Young Master Yun and scolded him for being shameless."

Gu Mingzhu got up: "Where's brother? Are you back?"

"The young master hasn't come back yet."

Gu Mingzhu sat down again.

She couldn't figure out what Yun Zhao's intention in asking her to marry him was, did he really think that after what happened to Qi Feiyan, he could still treat him as usual?
It is obvious that the Qi family is easier to control than the Gu family, and Qi Xun is very utilitarian, as can be seen from the incident of forcing the Sai girl, if he knows that Prince Yunzhao

With his identity, he will definitely help the Yun family with all his might.

Once Yun Zhao asks for this marriage decree, how can she not obey?If you don't follow, that's an anti-decree!

My brother has just entered the Habayashi Army, is it because of himself that he will cut off his future?
Gu Mingzhu suddenly tightened her fists.

What exactly does Yun Zhao want to do!
Gu Mingzhu waited until it was dark, but Gu Xiurong never returned to the mansion. The servant he sent came back to report that his brother was reprimanded by the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and now he is thinking about his mistakes.

The family member reported again: "The people of the Habayashi Army also said that thinking about mistakes is just an excuse to the outside world, so that the family does not have to worry."

Gu Mingzhu felt relieved.

It was a disrespectful act for my brother to openly attack in the palace. Ge Baoxue, as the commander of the Habayashi Army, was guilty of dereliction of duty if he was not strict with his subordinates.

Gu Mingzhu couldn't help thinking deeply, if Yun Zhao insisted on asking the imperial decree to marry her, what should she do?

This incident was beyond her expectation.

I haven't thought of a way to deal with it yet. On the second day, someone from the palace came.

At that time, Guan University had just come to the door and was discussing with Gu Mingzhu the details of the Thirteen Gardens. Gu Mingzhu listened to some suggestions from Guan University and made changes.

"Five days at most, the thirteenth garden can be taken care of. I'm already looking for a waiter. When will the lady open?"

Gu Mingzhu tapped the table with her fingers, thought for a while, and said, "The sooner the better, I won't be free these few days, and I'll go take a look after the installation is complete."

"Yes."

While talking, the servant came to report: "Miss, someone is coming from the palace."

Surprised, Gu Mingzhu hurriedly got up and went out of the room. There were two people dressed as eunuchs standing in the courtyard.

One of them said: "This is Eunuch Cui from the palace."

Gu Mingzhu quickly nodded and said, "Hi Eunuch Cui."

The eunuch smiled and brushed his hands, his face was so pale that it was covered with white wax: "Miss Gu, according to the queen's order, Miss Xuan enters the palace."

Gu Mingzhu respectfully said: "Gu Mingzhu obeys the Queen's order."

He gestured to ask Gu Mingzhu to go first, and landed on her left side. Gu Mingzhu kept smiling, and took off a jade bracelet from her hand without a trace: "Eunuch Cui, I don't know why the empress announced me?"

Suet jade exudes a faint luminescence in the dim light.

Cui Er took it as if nothing had happened, and said: "Miss Gu, you don't need to worry, it's just that the Empress heard about what happened yesterday and wants to ask the girl a few words, and the girl can answer truthfully."

It turned out to be about her and Yun Zhao.

So far, one step at a time is one step at a time.

When they arrived at Xuanshen Gate, Cui Er led her up the invisible steps, and then led the way to the harem.

Cui Er's complexion did not change, but he looked at Gu Mingzhu with admiration in his heart.

The imperial palace is majestic and majestic. No matter who enters the palace for the first time, they are all shocked by this majestic palace wall.

But Gu Mingzhu, a weak businesswoman, was neither humble nor overbearing, neither looked nor spoke, as calm as if she had walked countless times.

Cui Er couldn't help but look at her twice.

That's right, how can the woman Yun Zhao likes be a mortal?
When they arrived at Yongshou Palace, Cui Er led Gu Mingzhu into the palace gate, walked through the front yard, and walked up several steps. Cui Er reported, "Empress, Gu Mingzhu will bring you here."

"Xuan."

Gu Mingzhu took a deep breath, stepped inside, and saluted: "Gu Mingzhu, the daughter of the people, see the empress."
