Chapter 309 A Grasshopper on a Thread
If Yang Ji didn't give a satisfactory explanation for this, the prince would not be the only one who would be horrified in the East Palace next morning.

So the first thing Yang Ji did when he returned to the palace was to take Concubine Wu to the knife - take ten thousand steps back and say, at this time, even if Yang Ji was reluctant to do it, Concubine An would definitely persuade him to do it.

And how could Yang Ji not do it?As far as he is concerned, after being abducted by Concubine Wu, it is the most sensible way to stop losses in time.

——Of course, how to use this knife is also very particular. It depends on whether Yang Ji intends to do it himself or borrow a knife to kill someone.

In short, the concubine Wu must fall, and Yang Ji in Liaodong will lose at least one Wu Zhang.

Originally, it was just a normal power struggle between Tengxiangwei, but now it has provided the emperor with a great convenience. Her initial request to eliminate Tengxiangwei has also been achieved.

Maybe side concubine Wu did not deserve death in this matter, but political struggles are like this, as long as you dare to move your mind, you have to be prepared to die without a place to die, even if you just reached out, you lose if you lose. What's the point.

"Let's go." Yang Su's voice came from behind.

Chang Ying turned her head and saw him standing gracefully under the cold moon with his hands behind his back, as if he had just entered the palace and had a cup of tea with the emperor just now, as indifferent as before.

Changying turned to look at Shaoqing, Shaoqing gave a gesture of reassurance, and led Cheng Chun and Liu Bing to continue patrolling.

Gao Suming was detained, there was no commander in the guard, and Zhao Jun was dismissed. Starting tomorrow, Tengxiang Right Guard will reshuffle the cards.

The turn of events was unexpectedly handled in a relatively calm manner, but the result was still what people wanted.

Changying and Yang Su strolled out of the palace, the two of them did not speak on the way, the guards of the palace under the Chengtianmen waited there holding their horses, Changying stopped, but Yang Su stretched out his hand, lightly wrapped her shoulders, and continued on foot. Let's go.

There is still unmelted snow on the road paved with bluestone slabs, and there are occasional lighted lanterns under the doors of shops or mansions along the way. The footsteps are very slow and light, but they are clearly distinguishable in this silent dawn.

As Changying walked, she stretched out her hand to hold Yang Su's hand. After walking a few steps, she felt that it was not enough, so she simply took his arm.

In this night, the usual cold and arrogant general turned into an ordinary and charming little woman, holding his lover's arm, it was extremely sweet.

Yang Su didn't interrupt all her movements, but the slightly raised corners of his lips revealed the gentleness that gradually rose from the bottom of his heart.

Although I also pray for the fun of you and me in the boudoir, but right now, surrounded by powerful enemies, it is unrealistic to want to concentrate on creating a warm atmosphere with distraction. Yili moved forward, but felt more at ease.

"Can you often eat with me in the future?" He asked softly.

Changying hummed, looking at the blurred shadow on the ground: "Actually, if you are willing to come to Shen's house to eat the dishes cooked by Wu Ma, I will not object."

Yang Su glanced at her, smiled and pulled her under the cloak.

……

Gu Lian hadn't been able to enter the palace all night, so he changed into court clothes and waited at the gate of the palace early in a sedan chair.The palace gate opened, and he immediately went to the East Palace,

In the hall, Yang Ji sat with his facial features distorted, his eyes still looking at Concubine Wu who was lying in a pool of blood.

Gu Lian was startled, lifted his robe and stepped into the door, stood in front of Concubine Wu's body and held his breath for a moment, then turned to Yang Ji: "You killed her, what about Wu Zhang? You still expect him to work for you? ! And the grandson she left behind, his biological mother died suddenly, and his existence value will be greatly reduced!"

"If she doesn't die, I will have to be horrified by Yang Su when I turn around. The Qianqing Palace has all the evidence of her being an official. Do you think I should put myself in a situation where I am surrounded by enemies for the sake of Wu Zhang?"

Yang Ji stood up as he spoke, staring at him with bloodshot eyes: "Why did she want to be an official? Is it because of Wu Zhang? You know it in your heart, so you know why I killed her? "

He laughed, walked half a circle around him, stopped in front of Concubine Wu, and looked at him sideways: "You actually kept this kind of thing from me, Shen Changying and Yang Su checked it out clearly Clearly, I sent the evidence directly to Qianqing Palace, but I didn't realize it!

"Treat me like a fool, is this the sincerity of your Gu family supporting me?!"

"Wu Zhang made some troubles in Liaodong, and I only found out not long ago! And I haven't figured out why yet.

"Wu side concubine raised money to fill in the leaks for him, I think she handles some irrelevant official positions, so I don't pay attention to them.

"Don't you know that the matter of Wu's vending officer is not fatal enough, and the things you asked Zhao Jun to do, if Shen Changying was not eager to kick Zhao Jun out and let her get the handle, it would really be called the crime of treason What?!"

Gu Lian approached in a deep voice: "You just started to use yourself, always thinking that you can control the overall situation, but in fact you have been aggressive and missed repeatedly! It was the same with Huo Rong in the past, and it was the same with the food supply, and even more so with the school arena!
"Even if you are now forced by the emperor to the point where you have to execute her, you should hand it over to the Clan House of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, let the emperor and Yang Su do it!
"You should show your attitude of affection and righteousness, instead of this meaningless killing of relatives! Only in this way can Wu Zhang divert his hatred!
"But now that he knows, he will only be disappointed with you! Because people died at your hands! He can only hate you! Hating you has cut off his thoughts! His future!
"Look at Yang Su, he clearly stood up for Shen Changying in the school field, but he said he was speaking out for the dignity of the military generals in the court. You haven't even learned the art of controlling subordinates, how can you have the face to accuse our Gu family of being helpless?" Your sincerity?!"

Yang Ji gritted his teeth and sneered: "My cousin is really justified in beating him up. Since you know that Wu Zhang has committed the crime, but I don't, it can be seen that Wu Zhang is already your man.

"Since I belong to you, then I'm just playing tricks to let Mrs. Wu die in Yang Su's hands, and what's the difference between dying in my hands?
"Anyway, he won't be loyal to me. He is only loyal to the Gu family!"

"Shut up!" Gu Lian stared at him, then put his hands behind his back and said slowly: "His Royal Highness, are you going to settle accounts with the Gu family?"

Yang Ji's chest heaved and he couldn't answer.

Gu Lianfu looked at Concubine Wu on the ground, and said: "Your Highness killed Concubine Wu by means of thunder, it seems that it was not out of impulse, but to protest against the Gu family.

"It's true that Wu Zhang has had more contacts with the Gu family in recent years, but don't forget, Your Highness, Donggong and the Gu family have long been grasshoppers on the same thread!

"Whether the Gu family sincerely supports you or not, as long as the Gu family still allows you to stay in the crown prince, even if you are a puppet, you have to be established in this position for me!

"After all, I can buy Wu Zhang, and I can also buy Chen Zhang and Li Zhang. When you competed with me for the position of governor of water transportation and uprooted Fan Xin and the others, you should have thought that I would not be so easy to talk to."

Yang Ji's hands were curled up blue and white, and his red eyes seemed to burst out of his sockets!

"It's getting late, Your Highness should hurry up and change clothes, let's go to court early!"

Gu Lian gave him a deep look, and left through the door.
