If he doesn't take action, Donggong will do it himself.
Out of consideration for his deceased wife, Xiao Changqing hoped to preserve the last trace of Gu's bloodline and was quite tolerant towards Gu Qingshu. However, that did not mean that he would tolerate Gu Qingshu leaking the affairs of Prince Xin's Mansion.
Xiao Changqing did not go looking for Gu Qingshu immediately, nor did he send anyone to call Gu Qingshu. He returned to the study, and his deep and cold gaze fell on a painting hanging in the study. On the cliff, a red plum blossom was blooming alone, and the snow was as white as goose feathers, chilling him to the bone.
The signature is Gu Qingzhi's nickname. This is one of the few surviving paintings of Gu Qingzhi. She had an arrogant personality and was full of talent, but she rarely showed it. It was only after her father-in-law asked for this painting that he got it.
Xiao Changqing stared for a long time before he looked away, sharpened his brush and picked up his pen.
Gu Qingshu must be punished to satisfy the Eastern Palace, and at the same time, no effort should be made to alert the enemy and let Prince Zhao's Mansion find out, otherwise Xiao Changgeng would be exposed.
After sorting out his thoughts, Xiao Changqing slowly wrote two letters and sent them out of Prince Xin's Palace.
One of the letters was delivered to Xiao Huayong, with only two words on it: Known.
Xiao Huayong spread out his bony fingertips and threw it to Tian Yuan: "Keep an eye on it."
Tian Yuan bowed and took it, then asked, "Your Highness, are you paying attention to what's going on around you?"
Your Majesty really mobilized the Brave Army this time. They had already discovered something strange and had always been curious about how such a huge army could hide without leaving any trace. After this incident, they discovered that Your Majesty's Brave Army was broken up into small units and dispersed to various places.
King Xun Xiao Changfeng, who holds the power of command of the Divine Army, has secretly left the capital. With just a single order from him, he can mobilize all directions.
Are they going to find out where these people are hiding
"This may not be a bait your majesty has laid." Xiao Huayong shook his head slightly, rejecting the proposal. "To lure us into the game is a small matter, but to divide our forces is a big matter."
After the two incidents of Prince Kang privately manufacturing weapons and the former Minister of Revenue embezzling the national treasury, Your Majesty must have suspected that someone knew that he privately raised elite soldiers. When the Shenyong Army suffered a setback in the palace, Your Majesty was even more convinced and was therefore extremely cautious afterwards.
However, neither King Kang nor the former Minister of Revenue could avoid Shen Xihe. King Kang was sent to the guillotine by Shen Xihe. Although the former Minister of Revenue was the one who fanned the flames behind the scenes, he did not avoid Shen Xihe openly.
Therefore, Your Majesty is most suspicious of the Shen family.
He believed that the person who knew about the Divine Army and had always wanted to find out about it was Shen Yueshan.
In this situation, regardless of whether His Majesty suspects that there are others behind it, the Shen family is the biggest hidden danger. Since Shen Yueshan wants to know about the Divine Brave Army, it is better to show it to Shen Yueshan instead of hiding it.
As long as Your Majesty has such an intention, he will definitely make some noise and use this noise to achieve some purpose, either to catch a turtle in a jar or to create confusion.
Tian Yuan's heart sank. After all, he could not have imagined that His Highness was so deep: "Your Highness, Prince Bu..."
Xiao Huayong's deep pupils, as deep as midnight, were covered by his long drooping eyelashes. Only his cold voice revealed his ruthlessness: "She can choose whether to live or die."
Tian Yuan responded respectfully and retreated.
In fact, the matter has not been out of His Highness's control until this point, including the fact that His Highness Prince Lie is very likely to take risks to help Prince Bu for His Highness the Crown Princess. If this really happens, what will make His Highness Prince Lie come back obediently? His Highness the Crown Prince has already drawn the line.
