My Funny Consort

Chapter 236: Self-knowledge

Views:

Upon hearing the news, Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu looked at each other. If they remembered correctly, the person coming out of Mingyue Island this time was Gu Xiangning!

And Gu Xiangning seems to be in their Xiaowang Mansion now, okay? But what is the situation now? The emperor looked at the two people with a confused look on his face.

He began to explain himself: "In fact, the things about Mingyue Island are just prophecies circulating among the royal families of our various countries."

"Legend has it that with the help of Mingyue Island, it would be easy to conquer the world. But I didn't expect that Mingyue Island would really appear this time."

"It is said that they are a mother and daughter. Now the woman has become the consort of the second prince of Ningguo. The crown prince of Ningguo has been deposed, and the second prince Qin Zheng has become the crown prince."

"The first thing he did after becoming the crown prince was to go to war with the Great Zhou without caring about anything else. How pitiful are the people in the surrounding cities of the Great Zhou..."

Having said that, the emperor could not continue. However, Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao thought of Chen Da’s words. They were afraid that wherever the Ningguo soldiers passed, there would be a mess.

As for the mother and daughter, Qian Jiujiu instantly understood who they were, but she did not expect that Zhang Qiqi and Gu Yun, mother and daughter, were so capable.

In a short period of time, he helped Qin Zheng become the crown prince and also launched a war. Thinking of this, Qian Jiujiu frowned and looked at Mu Yexiao.

Mu Yexiao also looked at Qian Jiujiu. It was obvious that he had the same idea as Qian Jiujiu. The only question was how to deal with the mother and daughter? Mu Yexiao looked at the emperor.

"Father, do you have detailed information about the mother and daughter? And what did they do?"

The emperor nodded; "Of course I know about such people. I have their information. I have prepared the files. You can go and check them out."

Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu looked at each other and said, "Then I will take Jiujiu to have a look now. As for Nannanbeibei, he will stay here. Father and mother, please help take care of him."

The intelligence of the Great Zhou was also very powerful. Mu Yexiao brought Qian Jiujiu to the hall where the files were placed. Looking at so many files, fortunately there was a young eunuch to lead the way for the two of them.

He came directly to the file containing Zhang Qiqi and Gu Yun's information: "Prince Xiao, Princess Xiao, this is what you are looking for."

Mu Yexiao nodded and asked the eunuch to leave first. Then he looked at the file in front of him, picked it up and started reading. Qian Jiujiu was not polite either and took Gu Yun's file and started reading it.

He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It seemed that Gu Yun was also a master at playing power games. Perhaps it was because he was born with the genes of the Gu family and was excellent at everything he did.

Unexpectedly, she was rescued by the second prince Qin Zheng by chance, and then she attracted Qin Zheng's attention. He directly investigated her background and revealed that she was from Mingyue Island.

In this way, as long as they are members of the royal family and know that they are from Mingyue Island, they will definitely not let them go. Gu Yun's move is very clever, as it completely makes Qin Zheng come to him on his own.

To please her, but it only wrote that the prince was deposed for molesting a commoner girl, which was a bit surprising.

Unless the emperor particularly dislikes a prince, he would not depose a prince because of such a small matter, Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao.

"Mu Yexiao, does the Emperor of Ning Kingdom really dislike the Crown Prince? He was actually deposed for molesting a commoner girl. I'm afraid this Crown Prince is the most aggrieved person."

Mu Yexiao glanced at Qian Jiujiu and said, "Not necessarily. Sometimes it depends on the identity of the commoner woman. If she is from Mingyue Island, then it is possible that the Emperor of Ningguo will punish the prince."

"After all, as long as the people of Mingyue Island can be kept in Ningguo, the emperor will definitely do anything. It's just that the prince is too short-sighted."

Qian Jiujiu thought about it and this was the only explanation. Of course, this was indeed the case. The Second Prince had found out at that time that Gu Yun was from Mingyue Island.

Of course it was so easy to find out because Zhang Qiqi was behind the scenes fanning the flames. After the second prince knew about it, the crown prince naturally knew about it too.

The Crown Prince knew that Gu Yun had already had contact with the Second Prince, and he knew how attractive the Second Prince Qin Zheng was to those young girls.

That's why the prince was a little anxious. Of course, he was not such a reckless person at the beginning, but he was thinking about winning the heart of the beautiful woman.

So the prince also planned a heroic rescue, and then successfully met Gu Yun. That day, Gu Yun was discussing with Zhang Qiqi what to do next.

While walking on the street, a thief actually stole Gu Yun's purse. Gu Yun frowned, and a man nearby came out and chased after the thief.

This person was none other than the Crown Prince of Ningguo. After the Crown Prince caught the thief, he returned the purse to Gu Yun.

"This girl, your purse."

Gu Yun looked at his purse, then at the prince, and finally smiled: "Thank you, sir."

After saying this, Gu Yun was actually ready to leave, but the prince frowned. It was the first time he found that it was quite difficult to approach a woman. Thinking of this, his face turned a little bad.

But he saw the second prince Qin Zheng appear in front of him. When Qin Zheng saw Gu Yun, his eyes suddenly lit up and he walked straight up.

"Girl, do you still remember me?"

Gu Yun's eyes flickered as he looked at Qin Zheng without saying anything. Qin Zheng had already introduced himself: "I am the second prince, my name is Qin Zheng. I'm sorry for what happened last time. I scared you."

Listening to Qin Zheng's words, Gu Yun smiled and said, "Second Prince, you are too polite. It's all over. Besides, I'm not injured. I'm sorry that you've been thinking about me for so many days."

The conversation between the two people was seen by the prince who was standing far away, and his face became very ugly. Emperor Ningguo only wanted two sons, the eldest prince and the second prince.

Logically speaking, the eldest prince has been named the crown prince since he was young and his status is stable, but the second prince Qin Zheng is too outstanding and always surpasses the eldest prince.

This made the prince very dissatisfied, and now Qin Zheng actually dared to snatch the people from Mingyue Island from him, so don't blame him for being ruthless.

He walked quickly towards Qin Zheng and looked at him; "Second brother, what a coincidence, you also know this girl?"

After he finished speaking, the prince looked at Gu Yun again with great courtesy: "I don't know the name of this lady yet. Are you a friend of my second brother?"

Gu Yun looked at the prince, then at Qin Zheng. Qin Zheng had finally come to him, but the prince just wanted to disrupt the situation. There was some unhappiness in Gu Yun's eyes.

Zhang Qiqi figured it out. She had been in the capital of Ningguo for so many days, so naturally she had found out everything about the Ningguo royal family. The man in front of her turned out to be the prince.

As long as Gu Yun became the Crown Princess, it would be a natural thing for the Crown Prince to persuade the royal family to send troops to attack Da Zhou. So Zhang Qiqi's eyes lit up when she looked at the Crown Prince.

Qin Zheng saw the expressions of the two people. Seeing that the old woman obviously had more affection for the prince, he became upset and looked at the prince.

"Brother, what a coincidence that you are here too. I just see this girl occasionally. I offended her last time. As an apology, please give me a chance. How about that?"

Gu Yun's eyelashes trembled, and he looked up at Qin Zheng and smiled at him: "Second Prince, you are too polite. If we meet again next time, I will give you a chance."

After finishing speaking, Gu Yun turned to look at Zhang Qiqi: "Mom, let's go."

Naturally, she also noticed the change in her mother. Zhang Qiqi followed Gu Yun away. Not long after they left, Zhang Qiqi started asking questions.

"Xiao Yun, choose the prince, you can ascend to heaven in one step."

Gu Yun glanced at Zhang Qiqi and said, "Mom, you think too simply. The prince is a coward. Even if we choose him, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing."

"The prince's ambition is not as great as Qin Zheng's. We will only be implicated by him when the time comes."

Zhang Qiqi thought about it and it seemed to be true. Looking at Gu Yun, she still remembered that Gu Yun was unwilling to act under the banner of Mingyue Island at the beginning.

After meeting Qin Zheng, he was even more positive than her. It seemed that he really liked Qin Zheng. Thinking of this, Zhang Qiqi fell into deep thought.

As the prince watched the mother and daughter leave, his face looked unhappy because he was the one being ignored from beginning to end. He looked at Qin Zheng and said, "Second brother."

"It is important to know yourself. Some positions are not yours, so you'd better not covet them."

Qin Zheng's eyes flickered. When he heard this, he looked at the prince and said, "Brother, this is what I want to say to you. It is important to know yourself."

"Whether some positions can be defended or not still depends on the end."

The prince's face turned red with anger. It was simply unreasonable. He looked at Qin Zheng and said, "Oh, you went to the Great Zhou Kingdom, and after coming back, your tone has become harder."

"How did you get help from the Great Zhou Kingdom? Or did you get a promise?"

Qin Zheng just smiled and said, "Although I don't know what you misunderstood, I still have something to say. What's yours should be yours."

"If it's not yours, you can't take it away even if you try to steal it."

After saying this, Qin Zheng laughed and went into the palace. Now he knew that Gu Yun's identity must have been exposed. As for the people of Mingyue Island.

Of course, it's not just the Ning Kingdom that is interested. The people of the Great Zhou must be equally interested, as well as the grassland people and the Great Xia Kingdom who are eyeing them covetously.

So the most important thing now is to go to the palace to find the emperor. Qin Zheng quickly went to the palace to discuss this matter with the emperor. No matter what he did, he had to keep Gu Yun and her daughter in Ningguo.

Emperor Ningguo obviously agreed with this matter. He looked at Qin Zheng and said, "I'll leave this matter to you. If anything goes wrong, don't blame father for being ruthless."

Qin Zheng knelt on the ground: "I will never let this happen."
