Chapter 470
The emperor subconsciously turned the jade ring finger on his thumb again and again.
Gu Zezhi sat straddling a white horse right next to the carriage, also looking in the direction of Tai’an Palace. Smiling faintly, he said, meaningfully. “Let’s ask for interest first.”
The emperor nodded slightly his eyes sharp under the moonlight.
Indeed, Imperial Consort Fang was just an interest.
Resentment would be rewarded.
The emperor whispered to himself, “I wonder what Gu Xi will do when he realizes that he killed his grandmother with his own hands…”
Gu Zezhi turned the horse’s head, and looked toward the west, “I guess he should know by now.”
The night was as dark as ink, and the wind became increasingly colder. On winter nights, everything seemed to have entered a state of dormancy, and the outskirts outside Jiuqi Garden and even dozens of miles around it was extremely quiet, with only the sound of the cold wind whistling incessantly.
Gu Xi stood outside the main tent in the center, looking in the direction of the Jiuqi Garden, his heart slightly uneasy. Clenching his fists tightly he whispered to himself, “Counting the time, they should be back soon.”
They deliberately walked very slowly today and camped 20 miles away from the capital, which was even closer to the Jiuqi Garden on the outskirts of the capital, only 10 miles away.
“Third Brother!” Under the moonlight, County Princess Duan Rou looked cozy as she walked quickly towards him, a bright smile spreading across her face “Gra…”
Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by the head guard, “Third Master, they are back!”
Gu Xi’s face showed joy as he hurriedly said, “Quickly lead the people here!”
County Princess Duan Rou’s eyes also lit up and she completely forgot what she was going to say.
Soon, two guards dressed in black came quickly with the head of the guard, and in unison, they gave Gu Xi a salute, one of them gave a general account of the arson in Jiuqi Garden just now, and finally reported, “Third Prince don’t worry, the fire was already uncontrollable by the time this subordinate and two of them left, the Tai’an Palace was almost all burned up, and it was humanly impossible to extinguish the fire unless there’s a torrential downpour at this time of the year. “
“The emperor will not find out that it is an impostor inside.”
Gu Xi raised his eyes and looked at the bright silver moon in the sky. There were few stars tonight and the weather was good; even if he did not know how to observe the sky at night, he could still tell that it would not rain tonight. fr eewebn ovel.com
This matter has finally been accomplished!
“Great! “Princess Duan Rou proudly clapped her hands and laughed, saying happily, “The emperor is indeed stupid, weak and useless!”
They had done so many things under his nose, and yet the emperor did not even notice anything amiss or doubt; she was afraid he would not even dare to touch them even if he found out, with the emperor’s cowardice, how could he dare to go against his father who was sitting on a 300,000-strong army!
The headguard and the two guards laughed and echoed County Princess Duan Rou’s two sentences, causing her to become more and more spirited.
