As a prince, his only request is to wait a few years before getting married.

The emperor looked at his bright black jewel-like eyes, handsome face, and soft expression. His heart softened and he sighed: "It may be a few years later. It's not a matter of urgency.

The prince's wedding will be held in half a year. At that time, I will divide the fief for you all. It will not be too late for you to go to the fief."

"My son, I thank my father for his kindness."

After Gu Changyuan came out to express his gratitude, Chen Hong followed closely.

"Your Highness, Gaoge Lao has sent a letter saying that he has notified the Ministry of Personnel and recommends Zhang Xinzheng to be the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs."

"I see."

Gu Changyuan's expression remained unchanged and his steps were steady.

He has a close relationship with Takahashi, the chief minister of the cabinet, which is a secret that few people know.

Three years ago, when he was out of the palace on business, he accidentally rescued a child who was kidnapped. Later, he learned that the child was the grandson of Chief Minister Takahashi.

Since then, Gu Changyuan and Gao Shoufu have been in contact.

Of course, all in secret.

Although he has always been very low-key and has no sense of presence, Takahashi admires him very much.

He said, this is called hiding one's strength and biding one's time.

Even if a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it. Don't be the one who stands out before you have enough strength.

Prince Gu Yingxun kept calling Takahashi "Sir" in an attempt to gain his support.

If he knew that Takahashi had secretly supported and supported the powerless sixth brother, and took advantage of his being sidelined to promote Zhang Xinzheng to be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he would probably be angry and pass away on the spot.

As for Zhang Xinzheng, it was a coincidence that five or six years ago, he was the bachelor's student of the Sixth, Seventh and Eighth Princes, and was their serious master.

It's just that the sixth prince behaved too low-key. He usually appeared as a follower of the prince, and rarely interacted with Zhang Xinzheng on the surface. Most people would never associate him with him in that way.

In the endless dark night, a deadly net belonging to Gu Changyuan was weaving quietly.

On the other side, the eunuch Chen Hong thought he understood his master's thoughts, so he went out of the palace from time to time to look for medicinal materials, miracle doctors and the like.

Unexpectedly, every two days, he would come back and say to Gu Changyuan: "Marquis Li sent his daughter away!"

Gu Changyuan was writing an article. Hearing this, his heart moved slightly and he asked: "Where to send it?"

"Said to be sent to Zhuangzi to rest and recuperate."

"oh."

"But don't worry, Your Highness. It shouldn't be far. I'm here to find out for you."

"Chen Hong, are you free?" His Highness the Sixth Prince looked at Grand Eunuch Chen with cold eyes.

Chen Hong hurriedly lowered his head: "I know my mistake."

"A eunuch is asking about the whereabouts of someone's boudoir's daughter all day long, is he ashamed?" Gu Changyuan threw a letter to him, "Take it to Master Zhang."

"I will go when it gets dark."

How could the prince openly make friends with important officials of the court?

Naturally, it must be hidden from the eyes of others.

Chen Hong stuffed the letter into his arms and put it away. He stood with his head bowed for a moment, and then said cautiously: "Your Highness, there is one more thing."

"explain."

"That girl Hong'er... came here once two days ago. Your Highness was not here, so I asked her to go back."

"knew."

"Does His Highness still want her to serve?"

"don't want."

Thinking of the palace maid, Gu Changyuan felt irritated.

Chen Hong asked cautiously: "Since Hong'er is not liked by His Highness, why not...send her away?"

The so-called bedchamber maids are just tools for completing tasks, and most of the princes will not really want them.

Of course, there are exceptions.

Chen Hong felt that Hong'er was ordinary in every aspect, with ordinary looks and an unpleasant temperament. It was normal for His Highness not to like her, so he went to Hong'er privately to ask about her stay.

Unexpectedly, a traitor was caught on the spot.
