After coming out of the palace and sitting in the sedan chair, Gu Changfeng still felt empty in his heart during the inevitable swaying. If the little emperor found out about what happened today in the future, what would he think of him?

It turns out that the Crown Prince had been colluding with people from the Ministry of Rites so long ago?

The two of them colluded with each other and put the money from the national treasury into their own pockets?

Is it just to make money, or to recruit soldiers?

First it was the Ministry of Rites, and then which of the six ministries? Was he trying to seize power and assassinate the emperor?

The more Gu Changfeng thought about it, the more frightened he became. He couldn't help but ask Xiao Wo, why did he have to help Zhou Chaoyang? Wasn't this really asking for trouble?

Xiao Wo didn't say anything for a long time, then he let out a strange laugh, "Do you really think of yourself as a prince? Yes, that's a good thing." He spoke the last few words very softly, and Gu Changfeng couldn't hear clearly.

He frowned and asked, "What are you talking about? Am I not the prince?" Why is this system acting weird today?

Xiao Wo silently moved the progress bar behind "Plot Immersion" on the control panel to 10% and explained:

"Nothing. This is just a prelude to bring down Zhou Ling in the future. You are not in cahoots with him. How will this birthday party turn out? How much profit can Zhou Ling make from it? It is still up to you, the prince, to decide. Anyway, Zhou Ling will come to see you in person soon."

"But I remember that I was not good at getting along with these censors. It was precisely because I was not close to any of the six ministries that the young emperor had no grudge against me. Now, what if he misunderstands that I have rebellious intentions? Although I have never thought of replacing him, if I reach out to the court now, and five years later I have made military achievements, my achievements will surpass my master, and I will get entangled with officials from the six ministries..."

On the way back to the palace, it started to rain heavily again. Gu Changfeng had no expression on his face. A thunderbolt made his face pale. He said coldly, "If I were the emperor, I would not let Gu Changfeng stay in five years. You said I have the luck to be the protagonist and I will not die, but I still have to think about five years later. I have to hand over the military power and return to my own fiefdom. I can't return to Beijing for the rest of my life to ensure my safety."

"Getting married right after returning from the war is really too ostentatious, and Wen Heng will not be willing to return to the fiefdom with me."

Xiao Wo smiled and said, "That's something we need to ask the 'author'. With such an irreconcilable ending, it's no wonder he gave up writing."

Gu Changfeng didn't take these sarcastic words to heart. As an employee of the bad-ending article recycling system, it was normal for him to have resentment towards the author of such bad-ending articles. He shrugged and said, "This is really difficult for me. If I were writing this article, I would have no choice but to force the emperor to abdicate."

He thought about his adopted brother, "I don't want to do anything to Chang Li, but if I don't do this, I will either stay in the capital with Wen Heng, and then be plotted against by the suspicious emperor when he grows up, stripped of power and forced to confess, or simply killed, so that both of us die and we are happy. Or I will forcibly take Wen Heng back to his fiefdom, but what about Wen Heng's ambition? He still has to avenge his brother and revive the Wen family. This will end badly."

Gu Changfeng scratched his head, "What a hassle."

"You can only choose one between your brother and your wife."

His eyes involuntarily looked at his waist. The original jade pendant was given away, leaving only a small sachet. "What about Shen Mingjue? He must have been promoted after returning from the battlefield, and he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life... He, he..." Gu Changfeng remembered the hallucination he had when he went to listen to the music some time ago. He was a little nervous. He asked Xiao Wo: "Did Shen Mingjue get injured on the battlefield?"

Xiao Snail: "Yes, swords have no eyes on the battlefield. It is impossible not to get hurt."

If that hallucination was true, Shen Mingjue had his tongue cut off, and he could only be an idle general when he returned. He would never be able to make any military achievements again, and could only live out his retirement in the capital. If he married Wen Heng at this time, would it mean that Shen Mingjue had given up on him? What should he do then?

I can't say anything anymore. I will be alone for the rest of my life and be accompanied by those rumors. It's miserable no matter how I think about it.

Gu Changfeng felt a headache, but he couldn't even figure out the affairs of Wen Heng and Gu Changli, let alone Shen Mingjue.

"Forget it. I don't want to think about it anymore. There are still five years left. There's no need to rush."

Little Snail: “…”

Gu Changfeng did not return to Suixia Academy. Since it was already late, he went to Wenlexian. Xiaowo had told him that there was a hidden plot here. Since he had finally come out, he might as well stay a little longer.

Just during this period of time, he heard a shocking secret.
