Chapter 241 Their target is you
The setting sun shone in front of the palace. Gu Changfeng had already changed his clothes and got on a carriage to enter the palace.
Today is a family dinner, but it is also the first time that Gu Changfeng has met his younger brother in private since returning from the frontier after five years.
During the conversation just now, Wen Heng mentioned Doctor Jiang to him. Although he didn't want to cause trouble for himself, it was a task assigned by another protagonist after all, so he still had to meet him.
Before the palace gate was locked, Gu Changfeng's carriage entered. Li Xue had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing him coming, he still put on a smile: "Oh my prince, why did you come only now? I have kept you waiting for so long!"
Li Xue asked a few eunuchs to bring Gu Changfeng a ladder to get down from the carriage, and said politely, "It's been five years since we last met, and the emperor has always been concerned about you. He even asked the astronomical expert to calculate your death!"
Gu Changfeng followed him down and dismounted. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. I have been worried about you during these years away from Beijing. Isn't it too late to prepare something for Your Majesty?" He glanced and let Li Xue see the treasure box in Zhao Si's hand.
Li Xue was a man who knew how to handle things. Seeing this, he laughed and said, "Your Majesty, why didn't you tell me earlier? Such a precious thing needs more people to protect it!"
Zhao Si was unhappy. He didn't care about the rules and started to retort: "I can protect her well. Your Excellency's words sound like people in the palace don't know the rules."
Gu Changfeng's eyelids jumped, and he wondered how Zhao Si could be so reckless as to even fight with the chief eunuch.
The next moment, Li Xue cried out in pain, "How dare I! Prince, please come this way. The Emperor will be here soon."
Sure enough, Li Xue took his men away and left behind a young eunuch to show them the way.
Zhao Si didn't think anything of it, and continued, "Why is he still like this? When I saw him..."
Gu Changfeng stretched out his hand and gestured, and Zhao Si then noticed that there was still one person among them. If he went back, he would probably talk nonsense.
Zhao Si shut up now.
When the three of them arrived outside the Yangxin Palace, the young eunuch went back. Gu Changfeng quickly told Zhao Si to keep his mouth shut and talk less, and then someone came over.
When this person saw Gu Changfeng, he came over and bowed.
"Your Highness, good luck! I am Jiang Shu from the Imperial Hospital. I heard from the Minister of Rites that you are ill. After the banquet is over, I hope Your Highness can..." He said this and saw that there was no one behind him, so he continued, "Things are different now. The Imperial Tutor is colluding with the Minister of Rites, together with the eunuch Li Xue. Please be careful, Your Highness!"
Gu Changfeng was shocked. The Imperial Tutor and the Minister of Rites were the mothers of the Emperor's only two concubines. If Li Xue was included, wouldn't the Emperor be in danger?
Doctor Jiang seemed to see the concerns in Gu Changfeng's heart, and then said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the emperor is fine." Just when Gu Changfeng was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Doctor Jiang said again: "Because their target is you."
Right here, the emperor also arrived.
"What are you two talking about? I'm late. What good thing did I miss?"
Gu Changfeng turned his head. The person in front of him was no longer the young boy he used to be. After five years, he had grown up.
"Greetings to the Emperor."
Gu Changli nodded: "Doctor Jiang, there is nothing for you to do here, you should go back early."
Although Doctor Jiang didn't finish his words, the information revealed in this sentence was enough to alert Gu Changfeng. He did not stay any longer and left immediately.
"You all should get out too."
Gu Changli waved his hand, and everyone around him retreated.
"Brother, welcome home." Gu Changli hugged him, and his warm tears accidentally flowed into Gu Changfeng's neck.
