Chapter 330: Wake Him Up For His Own Good

Gu Zhicheng sighed, saying, “Your Majesty, please calm your anger. This old servant is powerless and can’t control this unfilial daughter. Everything is at Your Majesty’s discretion.”

This implied that he wouldn’t interfere with Gu Qingluan’s fate.

Without Royal Prince Lan supporting Gu Qingluan, Emperor Xuanzong would have easily pa.s.sed judgment, but now he was uncertain about how to proceed. He furrowed his brows and turned to inquire about the Crown Prince’s opinion.

The Crown Prince had been responsible for hosting Royal Prince Lan initially, so he should understand him best.

Qi Tianyou couldn’t help but bitterly smile inwardly.

If he could discipline Miss Gu, he wouldn’t have needed to cover up the truth about the Fifth Prince’s death for her.

Unfortunately, secrets don’t stay hidden forever.

The commotion at the Fifth Prince’s residence had attracted too much attention. If Duke Dingbei’s household investigated even a little, they would uncover the true culprit.

Qi Tianyou glanced at Gu Qingluan and then fixed his gaze on Duke Dingbei and his son. He began, “Duke Dingbei, there’s something you may not know. On the day, that person whom my fifth brother has taken…”

Before he could finish, Gu Qingluan interrupted, “On the day my son was taken by Qi Tianyu, he stumbled upon a secret chamber. Do you know what Qi Tianyue did in that chamber?”

She had a hunch about what the Crown Prince was about to reveal.

He likely intended to use Yuan Xi and his father’s ident.i.ties to intimidate these people.

However, she didn’t want that.

Yuan Xi and his father had concealed their ident.i.ties when they arrived in Chengyuan, and they must have had their reasons. She didn’t want them to be forced to reveal their true selves because of her.

Moreover, considering yesterday’s ambush on Feng Tianlan in the black market, she could only imagine how many powerful forces were after him.

She didn’t know if they were targeting him because he was Royal Prince Lan, but if they were, revealing Feng Tianlan’s ident.i.ty would put him and Yuan Xi in grave danger.

Qi Tianyou glanced at Gu Qingluan and chose not to continue.

“No matter what he did, it’s not a reason for you to kill him!” Li Miao Wu angrily declared.

Gu Qingluan smiled.

“Is that so?”

Her beautiful eyes glimmered with a deeper meaning as she fixed her gaze on Duke Dingbei’s face. “They say Duke Dingbei has earned great merits for Chengyuan, being a great hero of this country. But if news were to spread that your grandson forcibly imprisoned dozens of innocent women, would your reputation still stand?”

“Nonsense!” Li Miao Wu exclaimed loudly, his eyes glaring fiercely at Gu Qingluan. “You’ve already killed the Fifth Prince, and now you’re trying to slander him further. How can you be so heartless!”

Duke Dingbei’s expression darkened, and he stared intensely at her.

Gu Qingluan smiled serenely. “General Li, stay calm. Your intense reaction makes me wonder if you knew something all along.”

“The Fifth Prince is my nephew; how can 1 remain indifferent when he’s falsely accused by this murderer?” Li Miao Wu’s gaze flickered for a moment, and he spoke with righteousness.

Gu Qingluan chuckled. “Oh, well, a prince holds a high and influential position. Even if he keeps a few women, it’s nothing extraordinary. General Li, 1 suspect your agitation isn’t really about that. Instead, it’s…” She let her eyes spin playfully as her words hung in the air, relishing the tension in his expression.

“Shut up, you venomous woman! Today, 1 will seek justice for the Fifth Prince!”

Li Miao Wu feared that Gu Qingluan would reveal the unspeakable secret and rushed to cover her mouth.

Not far off, Gu Zhicheng promptly stepped aside, wearing a sly smile on his face.

What a fool. Didn’t he know Gu Qingluan’s level of cultivation? He dared to charge at her, practically seeking his own death.

Gu Qingluan tsked and looked at the charging Li Miao Wu. She casually raised her hand and gave a light wave.

Smack!

With a mere palm strike through the air, Li Miao Wu was sent flying.

On the rooftop, Gu Xiaonan’s eyes sparkled as he exclaimed, “Mother is formidable!”

Feng Yuanxi nodded in agreement.

Mother was truly incredible.

Duke Dingbei couldn’t contain himself and stood up in anger.

Qi Tianyou’s brow twitched.

This…

Did General Li lack common sense? He actually a.s.saulted a Saint in this place.

Emperor Xuanzong’s throat tightened, and he grabbed the armrest of his dragon throne. “Outrageous! You should know what place this is! How dare you resort to violence here!”

Gu Qingluan lowered her hand, turned to face Emperor Xuanzong, and innocently said, “Your Majesty, please calm down. General Li seems to have been overwhelmed by grief and temporarily lost his composure in front of the royal presence. To help him realize the gravity of the situation, 1 had no choice but to wake him up.”
