Xuanyuan Fengle laughed loudly, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Gu Chan became playful.

Originally he thought that Gu Chan knew about this, but looking at the current situation, he realized that Gu Chan was really crossing the river by feeling the stones, not caring whether there were thorns in the river!

While laughing, he even said jokingly, "You have to think carefully. The King of Qin has always been protective of his children, especially the Fourteenth Sister and the Fifteenth Brother. They are like his sweethearts. You helped the Sixteenth Brother beat them up like that this time, and he will definitely come to trouble you later."

"Third Prince, stop laughing! Help me think of a solution." Gu Chan said bitterly.

"What can I think of to help you? You are now one of the four kings of Kyoto, and your status is equal to that of the King of Qin. I dare not meddle in your affairs." Xuanyuan Feng said with a smirk.

"You bastard, I'm helping your brother and you're still here talking nonsense about me. Don't let me get the chance, or I'll beat you up too." Gu Chan glared at Xuanyuan Feng and cursed him angrily.

"Hahaha……"

Xuanyuan Feng was not angry at all. Instead, he couldn't stop laughing because of Gu Chan's teasing.

Gu Chan got up and left angrily, not bothering to talk nonsense with him anymore.

Xuanyuan Feng didn't care about her and walked over there on his own. Together with the guards, he taught Xuanyuan Ming advanced physical skills.

After coming out of Wanhuang Garden, Gu Chan was just about to get on the carriage when she saw a guard in black running over and stopping her, saying, "Prince Chan, please stay."

"Who are you?" Gu Chan asked angrily.

"I am a guard at the Prince of Qin's mansion. My Prince Qin said he wanted to meet you, so he asked me to invite you to his mansion for a chat." The guard said respectfully.

Gu Chan's eyes widened when she heard this.

Oh shit!

Xuanyuan Feng was right! The King of Qin was really protective of his son.

She had just helped Xuanyuan Ming beat up Xuanyuan Xiang and Xuanyuan Lin in the villa, and now the King of Qin's guards had come. Wasn't it obvious that they wanted her to come over and call them to account?

"Damn! What should I do? Go or not?"

Staring at the guard, Gu Chan muttered to herself.

The guard urged, "Please come in, Lord Chan! The carriage of the Prince Qin's mansion is ready, please come with me."

"Um... well, I still have some things to do at the Ministry of War, so I can't go now. So, you go back and tell your Prince Qin that I will go there after I finish my business at the Ministry of War." Gu Chan said cunningly.

After saying that, she quickly got into the carriage and ran away.

The guard stood there, watching the departing carriage, a sneer on his face.

Half an hour later, Gu Chan arrived at the Ministry of War in a carriage.

Yan Kuan immediately led all the people from the Ministry of War out to greet them.

Gu Chan got off the carriage, looked up, and couldn't help but wonder, "Are these all the people in your Ministry of War?"

"Yes, Prince Chan." Yan Kuan said respectfully.

"That's not right! Why is the Minister of War not here?" Gu Chan asked.

The last time she came to the Ministry of War in Kyoto, she did not see the Minister of War. Now more than a year has passed, and the highest-ranking official in the Ministry of War seems to have disappeared. This must make her confused!

Yan Kuan said slyly, "Prince Chan, the Ministry of War is very busy right now, why don't you go in and take care of some business first!"

"What? Can't this be mentioned?" Gu Chan asked doubtfully.

Yan Kuan and others said nothing and kept silent about it, but enthusiastically invited Gu Chan into the Ministry of War.

After that, Gu Chan could only start reviewing various reports in the Ministry of War, which was extremely boring.

When Shen Yang was the only one left in the room, Gu Chan put her mouth close to his ear and whispered, "What happened to them? Why didn't they talk to the Minister of War? Is it possible that this person cannot be mentioned?"

"Uncle, you don't know, but our Lord Yu offended the Crown Prince, so he was thrown into prison in anger. That's why the position of Minister of War is still vacant and no one dares to mention him," Shen Yang explained.

"Interesting, how did he offend the prince?" Gu Chan asked with a grin.

Nowadays in Kyoto, there are very few people who dare to offend the prince!

This Minister of War, Lord Yu, actually dared to go against the Crown Prince. This was enough to prove that he was absolutely good at his job. It was a pity that his backing was not strong enough, otherwise he would not have been thrown into prison by the Crown Prince.

Shen Yang sighed and said, "The Crown Prince wanted to take over the six ministries in one fell swoop, and Lord Yu was the first to stand up and sing a different tune. He was also the first person to recommend the Ninth Prince to take over the management of the Ministry of War. The Crown Prince naturally did not tolerate him. Moreover, he has been incorruptible over the years and does not play the game of Kyoto officialdom. Everyone excluded him, so naturally no one was willing to stand up and speak for him."

"Oh! What a pity! He is such a talented person! If I could come here earlier, I would definitely protect him. It would be great if I could meet him now." Gu Chan said with emotion.

Shen Yang said in surprise, "Second Uncle, haven't you met Lord Yu a long time ago? The day before yesterday, when I was ordered to go to Tianlao to see Lord Yu, he mentioned you to me!"

"Ah? When have I met him? You're talking nonsense! I don't even know who he is." Gu Chan said with her hands spread out.

She swore that she really didn't remember meeting the Minister of War, Lord Yu.

Shen Yang scratched his head and said, "Then why did Lord Yu tell me that you maliciously framed him last time in the prison and said that he had accomplices outside who wanted to assassinate the prince?"

"Oh! I remember now, you mean the fat guy imprisoned in the Sky Prison?" Gu Chan was stunned at first, then she suddenly realized and said.

Now she really remembered.

The last time she took Su Yao to the prison to see the Ninth Prince Xuanyuan Qing, in order to cover up her tracks, she just grabbed the fat guy in the prison and told him a bunch of nonsense.

How could she know that the ugly-looking fat guy was actually the former Minister of War, Lord Yu?

"Ha ha……"

Thinking of this, Gu Chan couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Shen Yang looked confused and said, "Second Uncle, what are you laughing at again?"

"I was just talking nonsense last time. I never thought he was such a great official! If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have joked with him then." Gu Chan said with a wry smile.

"Oh, second uncle! You have really done a terrible harm to Lord Yu. After you left last time, he was beaten with fifty boards. His buttocks were torn and bleeding. If you don't explain this matter clearly, I'm afraid he will be tortured to death in the Sky Prison in a few days." Shen Yang said anxiously.

Gu Chan put away the smile on her face and said seriously, "Such a great official really can't die. It seems that I really need to think of a way to get him out of the prison first."

"This may not be easy. In my opinion, we should first find a way to reduce his physical pain." Shen Yang sighed.

Gu Chan nodded without comment.

Then the two began to discuss countermeasures.
