Chapter 418 Chen Yu said, the Queen's lover = concubine
Chapter 418 Chen Yu said, the Queen's lover = concubine
Cong Juren's promotion speed seemed normal. After all, his daughter had entered the Eastern Palace and climbed into the bed of the current crown prince.
From this perspective, the prince slept with someone else's daughter, and the other person got a promotion...there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that.
But the more this happened, the more Gu Jingzhi felt something was wrong.
The appearance of Cong Juren and Qingxuan, and even the fact that the prince was misled by the doctor, none of these things were a problem individually, but when they were all brought together in the East Palace, Gu Jingzhi had to investigate.
In fact, when he combined the two things and thought about what happened to Jin Lehuang, Gu Jingzhi felt more and more that there was something wrong.
There is no need to think about it, the prince was taught the wrong way and is definitely abnormal. Gu Jing subconsciously felt that this was most likely related to Prince Heng.
This guy cheated the second brother four years ago, causing the second brother's title of King of Wu to be demoted to Marquis of Wu!
Then after Emperor Wen ascended the throne, he went to Hengzhou to be his fief.
Gu Jingzhi didn't think that he would give up the throne easily. He even didn't know how many cards Prince Heng had in his hand... Even after so much time had passed, Gu Jingzhi's secret guards had not dug them all out.
Even the Internal Security Bureau did not find any more information.
However, Gu Jingzhi vaguely felt that the third brother was very likely to have taken over Jin Lehuang's inheritance. After all, back in Ningzhou, Gu Jingzhi only destroyed Jin Lehuang and her core intelligence organization.
However, he could not fully understand how deep Jin Lehuang's infiltration was.
Qu Feiyan once said that Jin Lehuang had a personal maid whose status was higher than hers, but she later disappeared without a trace.
Such a person who is deeply trusted by Jin Lehuang is definitely not an ordinary person, and he will never disappear for no reason.
Perhaps it was Jin Lehuang's failure that caused these people to lie dormant, and these people were the ones who knew the deal between Jin Lehuang and King Heng best.
and so……
Will these people be controlled by King Heng?
No matter what others think, Gu Jingzhi feels that it is very likely. Although Jin Lehuang and King Heng have hatred for humiliation, that woman is extremely proud. She would not tell everyone that she is almost being trained like a bitch, right?
The thing a dog without an owner fears most is... having old scores dug up and being settled with one by one.
But if King Heng takes over these resources, there will be no such worries.
After all, it doesn't make much difference who you follow, it's all for that position anyway. It's even easier to rebel with Prince Heng than with Jin Lehuang. At least Prince Heng is of Zhou family blood, and sometimes, the righteous cause is still useful!
The imperial court has repeatedly issued orders, and the new policy has been in place for many years. It can be said that even the most stubborn factions are now doing things in accordance with the tone of the new policy.
But the heir of Daxia...
But he was taught the wrong way!
If Zhou Quan came to power, unless he was willing to be a useless decoration, the conflict of ideas would one day lead to disputes between him and the ministers in the court!
As for who to compete with?
Naturally, they were the core ministers who launched the New Deal reforms, and Gu Jingzhi was one of them.
Is Zhou Quan willing to be a decoration?
Obviously, they are unwilling to do so. Even if they are ordinary people, few people are willing to be a puppet, let alone the king of a country?
The deep worry was not resolved. Seeing that her husband was unwilling to say more, Chen Yu did not ask any more questions.
This is a tacit understanding between the couple. When it comes to matters other than household matters, they will speak up when the time comes. If they don't speak up, it means that the time has not come yet.
It’s not about trust, it’s about rules!
Chen Yu took her husband's hand and whispered, "It's late, you should get some rest! If you can't figure these things out, why not find a chance to tell your beloved? Our son is hers, so she can't just not worry about anything, right?"
"..."
The corner of Gu Jingzhi's mouth twitched.
His wife has always had a grudge against Qiao Shuwan. What makes Chen Yu most unhappy is that the stinky woman always calls Chen Yu "sister, sister" every time she sees him.
You have to know that she, Chen Yu, is the legal wife, and that stinky woman is just a concubine, okay?
That's right!
In Chen Yu's heart, Qiao Shuwan was just a concubine. Even though she was the queen, she had no right to call her, the legitimate wife, her sister.
Gu Jingzhi looked at his wife's jealous expression and couldn't help but pinch her upturned nose.
"Jealous again!"
Although they are an old couple, they are only in their twenties after all, and they still maintain these intimate little gestures in private.
Chen Yu wrinkled his nose and said angrily, "You still say it's all your fault! I just didn't notice for a moment, and my house was robbed!"
The longer she was married to Gu Jingzhi, the more she spoke like Gu Jingzhi!
Gu Jingzhi just smiled slightly, then picked up his wife in a princess hug: "Okay, okay! It's all your fault. To make amends for my wife, I promise that no one will be able to cheat on her in the future..."
Feeling her feet lighten, and then she was picked up, Chen Yu hooked her hands around her husband's neck, but she was no longer shy. Instead, she hummed confidently, "It's originally mine. If anyone dares to steal it next time, I'll break her legs!"
"..."
"No, no! Don't worry, Madam!"
Gu Jingzhi was a little amused and helpless.
"Humph!"
Chen Yu curled her lips, then said coquettishly: "I don't care, you carry me back to my room today!"
"hehe!"
Gu Jingzhi did not object. He kicked the chair away and carried his wife out of the study.
The maids and servants guarding outside the door saw this and smiled, as they were already used to this.
In this marquis's mansion, etiquette and laws have no effect on these two masters at all. But when the master and mistress get along like this, the servants feel more relaxed!
……
The next day.
Gu Jingzhi was called up and a court meeting was to be held today.
After a simple breakfast, he took a carriage to the palace. However, when he arrived at the door of the hall and waited, he saw Huang An whispering with several ministers from the cabinet and the Grand Council!
Gu Jingzhi frowned slightly. He pulled someone beside him and asked, "When did this Eunuch Huang come?"
As a eunuch who served two emperors, Huang An was still deeply trusted by the royal family. At this time, he was not with the emperor, but with important officials in the court. It was estimated that something big had happened!
Noticing Gu Jingzhi's arrival, Huang An quickly called out, "The Marquis is here!"
"Ok!"
Gu Jingzhi called out and was about to ask something when he saw Huang An straighten up. "Your Majesty has ordered that court be adjourned today! All ministers of the cabinet, the Grand Council, and the Minister of War shall move to the Yangju Palace. The rest of you may disperse..."
