Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 261 The Assassination of Gu Changyan

Gu Changyan seemed to be speaking to Han Zhan, but in fact he was speaking to Chu Zhi.

The implication is that he has done everything he can, and it is Han Zhan who insists on going his own way and has nothing to do with him, so Chu Zhi should not wrong others.

It's a pity that Chu Zhi has already seen through Gu Changyan, knowing what kind of person he is, so naturally he won't believe his lies.

"Be careful when talking to Gu Changyan in the future." Han Zhan said, "He is not as gentle and easy-talking as he appears on the surface. Don't be fooled by his skin and appearance."

Chu Zhi was slightly surprised: "Do you know something?"

Han Zhan didn't want to say more about some things, he didn't want to involve Chu Zhi, he just said, "Don't worry, I understand everything in my heart."

Seeing what he said, Chu Zhi didn't feel comfortable asking any more, so he nodded and said: "In that case, you should be careful, and ask Qingyi to let me know if there is anything."

"Speaking of Qingyi, I haven't thanked you very much yet. If you hadn't sent Li Zhi to help me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get a single useful word out of Li Hongchang's mouth."

Chu Zhi smiled and said: "As long as I can help you, as for how to thank me, we will talk about it after your matter is over."

Han Zhan said: "Compared to me, you should be more careful about Gu Changyan. You are afraid that you will offend Li Zhi. Although Gu Changyan can't do anything, I am worried that the fourth prince will not let it go."

Chu Zhi sent Li Zhi to secretly interrogate Li Hongchang, which was known by Gu Changyan and the fourth prince, and it was too late when Gu Changyan sent someone to stop him. Li Hongchang had already signed and pledged himself, admitting that he was having an affair with a traitor, and the charges were true.

Fortunately, Gu Changyan was alert and came one step earlier, otherwise Li Zhi would definitely get the words that the fourth prince is the mastermind from Li Hongchang's mouth.

It's a pity, it's just one step away.

Chu Zhi felt a little regretful.

"You don't have to worry about this, I have my own plan." Chu Zhi thought for a while, took a step forward, and whispered in Han Zhan's ear, "I don't want to ask you why you suddenly left the city, I want to tell you Yes, what happened to you at Yulong Pass was plotted by His Majesty. His purpose was to suppress the Chen family and seize your father's military power. In order to save you, Lord Hou has already handed over the military power. I also participated in this matter. I am the one who advises you Father, you have the right to send troops. Otherwise, not only you, but the entire Hou Mansion will have an accident."

Han Zhan does not play tricks, but he is not stupid. He figured out the key points in an instant and understood everything.

Han Zhan knew that His Majesty was deep in thought, and pampering and pampering him on weekdays was just to see that he would tell the truth and not deceive His Majesty, and Han Zhan also knew His Majesty's purpose, so he cooperated earnestly.

Never expected that His Majesty would not let him go.

Seeing that Han Zhan was silent and Chu Zhi wanted to say something, the messenger who escorted Han Zhan back to Beijing had already urged him again.

Chu Zhi could only say: "Take care, I'll wait for you in the capital."

Chu Zhi rushed to meet Han Zhan before he returned to Beijing. One was to remind Han Zhan and tell him His Majesty's purpose, so that Han Zhan could make plans early; Whether Zhan was injured or not, the last point is to remind Han Zhan to be careful of Gu Changyan. After all, the Jade Dragon City incident has nothing to do with Gu Changyan.

Fortunately, Han Zhan was not that stupid. From what he said, it seemed that he already knew that Gu Changyan's purpose was impure, so Chu Zhi felt relieved.

Chu Zhi went to see Han Zhan, and he didn't hide it from others at all.

After returning home, he was called to the study by his father.

"Go to see the young master?"

"Ah."

"He's going to Beijing tomorrow, can't he even wait for one night?"

"After returning to Beijing, the young master was directly escorted to the palace. Han Zhan will not be released until this matter is decided. If I don't remind him a few words, tell him to be careful and treat His Majesty with respect." Fortification, there may be some troubles at that time, Zhongyong Hou paid such a high price, it can't be in vain."

"You care about the young master, what if you have the eyeliner of His Majesty?"

"If you know it, you will know it." Chu Zhi smiled lightly, "My daughter said that since His Majesty wanted me as a pawn, he naturally hoped that I would be as smart as possible. If he was too stupid, His Majesty would not have chosen me."

As for her reminder to Han Zhan to be careful of His Majesty, only the two of them could hear it, so even if there was eyeliner, Chu Zhi was not afraid.

Chu Zhang couldn't help laughing: "You have to be careful, just don't get yourself caught in the fire."

Chu Zhi smiled lightly, "Father, don't worry, my daughter knows what to do. By the way," she changed her voice, "Young Master reminded me to be careful about Gu Shizi. It seems that our previous guess was correct. What the family and the four princes did, coupled with His Majesty's behind-the-scenes fueling, has led to this situation.

"The fourth prince knows how to do things, but it makes sense, but His Majesty..." Chu Zhang sighed, "It seems that Your Majesty is really..."

Although he hadn't finished speaking, Chu Zhi already understood what he meant.

What she didn't say was that right now is just the beginning, and His Majesty will become more and more stupid as the time goes on.

It's just that he didn't expect that Gu Changyan was assassinated and his whereabouts were unknown early the next morning.

Chu Zhi frowned, instinctively thinking that this was a conspiracy by Gu Changyan and the fourth prince.

The purpose is to sing a bitter trick and divert His Majesty's speculation.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?Today when everyone returned to Beijing, Gu Changyan was assassinated.

Thinking of Gu Changyan being assassinated, Chu Zhi suddenly thought that in his previous life, Gu Changyan was assassinated on his way back from the northwest, and then he met Chu Xi in Hongfa Temple, and the two made a wish of "the grace of saving life, we should promise each other with our bodies" .

Thinking of this, Chu Zhi remembered that he hadn't seen Chu Xi for the past two days, so he hurriedly asked Dong'er to inquire.

Not long after, Dong'er brought news: "Miss Hui, the servants said that Miss Six had gone to Hongfa Temple to pray for the old lady the day before yesterday, and she is not in the mansion now."

Chu Zhi thought to himself: Sure enough!
She lowered her eyes slightly. In order to get rid of the suspicion, Gu Changyan directed and acted out a bitter trick by himself, and went to the temple to make a private appointment with Chu Xi for life.

In fact, in her previous life, she wanted to know that she and Chu Xi were so different, how could Gu Changyan not recognize who was who?After all, he is his own savior, if he is not blind, how can he admit his mistake?

What's more, she didn't believe that Chu Xi would wear her veil all the time, and the two of them had never met each other!
Thinking about it now, there are too many loopholes in those things in the previous life, if it is really what she thinks...

Chu Zhi pursed her lips tightly, explaining that from the beginning, all of these were calculated by Gu Changyan alone, and she was also in Gu Changyan's plan from the very beginning...

It is unknown whether the previous life was a conspiracy by Gu Changyan, but Chu Zhi really guessed wrong about Gu Changyan's injury.

This is really not Gu Changyan's bitter plan.

Here's the thing.

However, when Chu Zhi went to see Han Zhan, Qing Yi overheard her conversation with Han Zhan and Gu Changyan, and knew that Gu Changyan had plotted against her master, and Qing Yi, who would not allow anyone to hurt Han Zhan, went to the same place at night. Gu Changyan fought together.

The two of them fought fiercely with swords and swords.
