The prince is five and a half years old, and he is reclaiming land and becoming a group favorite.

Jiang Kangming and his entourage arrived in Beijing in mid-September. Gu Yuchen did not even attend the morning court, but directly let Qi Guogong and others enter the imperial study.

Jiang Kangming stood quietly in the corner, his eyes slightly lowered, his face numb, but his ears were perked, listening carefully to the conversation between Qi Guogong and the emperor.

Zhao Xi took the box from Qi Guogong, stood a few steps away from Gu Yuchen, and slowly opened it.

In the box, Gu Yufan's head gradually appeared. His entire face was gray-white, his eyes were closed tightly, and his cheeks were sunken. It was obvious that Gu Yufan had not lived a good life during that last period.

Looking at this face that had been arrogant and domineering since childhood, but now completely lifeless, Gu Yufan couldn't help but tighten his hands on the armrest of the dragon chair.

Gu Yufan always wanted to die, and so did he.

But when he actually saw Gu Yufan's head, he actually felt a little sad.

It seems that when they were very young, the two of them had a good relationship.

Gu Yuchen stared at the head for a long time, then weakly waved his hand: "Close it. The edict has been issued, and Gu Yufan can no longer enter the imperial mausoleum."

But after all, he is a prince, and he cannot be thrown into a mass grave.

He did not hide anything, and told the whole story of the calculations made by Princess Chu and Gu Yufan's staff: "If Xie Changshi hadn't been extra careful and not let His Highness reveal his traces, His Highness would definitely have been killed by the people of Jiangnan. Drown in a spittle!"

So the emperor showed hesitation, as if he wanted to bury Gu Yufan properly, and he immediately talked about it.

Gu Yuchen was about to find a place to bury him when Qi Guogong spoke: "Your Highness, I heard that His Highness was tricked by Princess Chu after he settled in Jiangzhou."

Gu Yuchen's expression changed slightly and he stared at the wolf brush on the table. His mind suddenly drifted back to the first time he received a letter from Gu Yuzhi.

"At that time, the King of Chu had not yet been defeated, but the Princess of Chu led everyone in the Chu Palace to commit suicide. This is obviously to increase the conflict between the King of Chu and you."

"It was the Mid-Autumn Festival gift you sent to His Highness that helped His Highness get through the difficult times, but His Highness did not dare to write to you every time asking for money. He took the lead in saving money and finding ways to do business and be self-sufficient."

The letter was written by Xie Changshi. The condensed content was just one word, poor, and two words, need money!
Gu Yuchen was disgusted at the time. Gu Yuzhi was still a prince no matter what. Although Concubine Taixian did not have a strong maternal family, she had lived in the palace for so many years. How could she be so poor.

If he was defeated and died on the battlefield, Gu Yufan took the Jiangnan Navy back to Jiangzhou, only to find out that His Highness had cruelly forced his wife to death. Firstly, His Highness would not be left alive, and secondly, Gu Yufan would be accelerated. He wanted to take revenge on the emperor.

A person like Gu Yufan should be thrown into a mass grave and eaten by wild dogs. His soul should be trapped in a mass grave and be barred from reincarnation for eternity!
He took out a thick account book from his arms and handed it over respectfully: "His Royal Highness took Xie Changshi and others to search these from Gu Yufan and Gu Yufan's staff..."

Gu Yufan plotted against himself, plotted against his eldest son, and initially plotted to kill his youngest son.

There was a sneer on Qi Guogong's face: "Your Majesty, you don't know that when Xie Changshi handed this account book to me, He Chen said that when His Highness came to Mobei in the first year, he had very little money, let alone Jian Qin. Even Xie Changshi and his friends can’t send out their money, and they are dreaming about me wanting to make money in the middle of the night.”

Gu Yuchen had no feelings for the youngest brother in the palace.

After all, ever since he became sensible, he has been busy studying, busy quietly winning over people's hearts, busy thinking of ways to consolidate his position as the prince, so how could he have any extra time to look at Xiaoliu?
If it weren't for the master's words, he would have almost forgotten that there was such a transparent little prince in the palace.

For the sake of Jiangshan Sheji, let alone Gu Yuzhi, a child of just over five years old, even if he was a baby, he would be sent to Mobei. So when he saw the letter asking for money, Gu Yuzhi's first reaction was that despite his young age, this kid was actually cunning at heart.

But his decision to send Gu Yuzhi to Mobei against all opinions had already dissatisfied the important ministers in the court. If there were less Mid-Autumn Festival gifts, he would definitely have to be nagged by those annoying censors.

But after that, Gu Yuzhi became much more verbose when he wrote letters again. He would share some interesting things about Mobei with him, and his mentality gradually changed.

But he really didn't expect that what Gu Yuzhi said in the letter was true. He really couldn't move at that time.

Gu Yuchen's throat tightened, and he slowly exhaled a breath before saying: "You continue."

Only then did Duke Qi continue: "But Your Majesty, from the account books that Xie Changshi compiled for me, we can see that even the most incompetent staff around Gu Yufan are wealthy."

His tone was sarcastic, and his meaning was obvious. A small staff member around Gu Yufan was richer than Gu Yuzhi two years ago. Why should Gu Yufan be buried properly?

Gu Yuchen tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the dragon chair, silent as he didn't know what to think.

And Jiang Kangming, who had been silent since he came in, finally took two steps forward, knelt on the ground, and respectfully handed over the bamboo slip: "Your Majesty, this is what Your Highness asked me to bring to you when we parted."

He understood that the emperor asked Duke Qi to bury Gu Yufan because he definitely did not want the censor to cause trouble, but Jiang Kangming also believed that Gu Yufan was not worthy of burial.

He had a hunch that this gift from His Highness would make the Emperor completely determined!

Gu Yuchen's eyes slowly moved over and did not fall on the bamboo slips. Instead, they fell on Jiang Kangming.

He didn't know why, but he felt that Jiang Kangming stood up at this time because of Gu Yuzhi.

This feeling was so subtle that Gu Yuchen couldn't help but squint his eyes with some scrutiny.

Gu Yu knew that this boy was quite interesting. Even someone like Jiang Kangming could stand up for him.

But Jiang Kangming's face was expressionless and his eyes were always calm, as if he was just doing business, which made Gu Yuchen doubt his own judgment.

He was silent for a moment, raised his chin slightly, and asked Zhao Xi to take the bamboo slips over.

When Zhao Xi slowly opened the bamboo slip and revealed the content on it, Gu Yuchen's face, which had always been emotionless and emotionless, finally showed a bit of surprise.

He stretched out his hand and Zhao Xi handed the bamboo slip over.

Gu Yuchen read it several times before he was really sure that Gu Yuzhi went to Jiangnan this time and silently gave him such a big gift!

Even if Jiang Kangming was thinking about Gu Yuzhi, now he was thinking about Gu Yuzhi!
The master is right, Gu Yuzhi is indeed his lucky star!

As long as Gu Yuzhi is not greedy like Gu Yufan, he can keep Gu Yuzhi safe and wealthy in this life! (End of chapter)
