Chapter 61: The Daughter of Su Family Couldn’t Do This
Three of them looked appeared to be more relieved. Old Master Su then asked, “What’s going on just now then?”
Su Yan sneered, “Gu Lingyu wants to seize the military power of the Guang Pingwang. He asked me to help pass on the news of Guang Residence. Certainly, he has to suck up to me.”
Old Master Su’s expression changed, “Yan’er, we can’t do such a thing.”
Looking at their anxious expressions, Su Yan burst into laughter.
“Do I look so gullible?”
Looking at them nodding their heads in unison, Su Yan’s smile froze.
This time, the three of them laughed.
Right then, An Yi was here to pick Su Yan up and bring her back to Guang Residence.
Before leaving, Su Yan reminded Master Su that Gu Lingyu might do something to the Imperial Court. She asked Master Su to be prepared.
She followed An Yi out and boarded the carriage.
They traveled all the way to the Guang Residence.
Su Yan went to see Gu Ruoyun as usual. Seeing that he was still lying on the bed, she sighed.
After returning to her room, Su Yan thought carefully about what Gu Lingyu had done in her previous life.
However, in her previous life, she did not pay much attention to the matters in the Imperial Court. Thus, she was not very clear about it.
As soon as Su Yan left, Gu Ruoyun opened his eyes.
It had been a month since he “fainted”.
“An Yi.”
A black shadow appeared in the room.
“Have you found it?” Gu Ruoyun asked coldly.
An Yi replied, “The other party is hiding very well, he has not made a move yet.”
Gu Ruoyun laughed coldly. He had been hiding very well indeed.
After poisoning Gu Ruoyun five years ago, he disappeared without a trace.
There had been no sign of him in the past five years.
This time, Gu Ruoyun suddenly “fainted” because he wanted to catch the big fish.
“Focus on investigating the people in the Imperial Court, especially the Neutral Faction.”
Gu Ruoyun’s words reminded An Yi. Over so many years, they had
been neglecting the Neutral Faction.
An Yi replied, “Yes.”
“With the news of me fainting suddenly this time, they probably won’t sit still. They will definitely come and pick the fruits they planted personally.”
Gu Ruoyun had just finished speaking when there was a commotion at the door.
This was the inner guard’s special way of greeting.
An Yi only allowed his man to enter after receiving Gu Ruoyun’s approval.
The inner guard bowed to Gu Ruoyun as soon as he entered.
Gu Ruoyun asked, “What did the Princess Consort do today?”
He was the inner guard sent to Su Yan’s side. He had been reporting to Gu Ruoyun every day.
The inner guard reported everything and everyone that Su Yan had met today.
An Yi frowned when he heard Gu Lingyu’s name.
“What did Gu Lingyu and the Princess Consort talk about?”
The inner guard replied, “I didn’t get too close so I couldn’t hear it clearly. However, both of them had a very pleasant conversation. They even spent two hours alone together.”
An Yi’s frown deepened.
Gu Ruoyun opened his mouth, “Gu Lingyu, is he my so-called nephew?”
An Yi nodded, “Your Highness, Gu Lingyu is the most active person in the Imperial Court these days. I believe that he wants to seize the military power in your hands. There’s nothing to be afraid of about Gu Lingyu. But, he has the support of many ministers behind him. They probably want to support Gu Lingyu as a puppet.”
Gu Ruoyun did not care about Gu Lingyu. His focus was somehting else.
“Is Gu Lingyu the little girl’s ex-fiancé?”
An Yi paused for a moment before replying, “Yes.”
Gu Ruoyun laughed softly and sounded a little cold, “Don’t worry about them for now. As soon as I wake up, they will dismiss on their own.”
An Yi agreed. They were acting so brazenly just because the Royal Highness was “unconscious”.
An Yi asked again, “Should we pay attention to the Princess Consort?”
Seeing Gu Ruoyun frown, An Yi added, “It’s not that I suspect the Princess Consort. I’m just worried that she might be deceived.”
Gu Ruoyun waved his hand to interrupt An Yi, “You only need to ensure Princess Consort’s safety. Don’t have to worry about anything else.”
An Yi could only nod and leave.
In the next few days, Su Yan was recuperating in peace.
