Chapter 1123 How could I wrong you?
Later, whenever he had the chance to buy food, he would buy it, and his granaries were filled to the brim.
The warehouse can be without anything else except food.
It also saved my current self and I can help others here.
Xiao Zhen always thought that Gu Yao was a little girl who didn't understand the world.
He had indeed eaten a lot of different kinds of food in the Duke's Mansion before.
But compared with the food here at Gu Yao's place, although the variety is less, the taste is not diminished at all.
On the contrary, it tasted better than any other food he had ever eaten before, even the rice was sweeter.
After Xiao Zhen finished talking to Gu Yao, he left and disappeared in the County Lord's Mansion to arrange people to do other things.
As long as the young lady was in the mansion, she didn't have to worry about her safety.

"Mother, can you discuss these things with me? Now is an important and critical moment. You helped your uncle to deal with a small county lady, which was nothing in the past. But now I have to compete for that position. Everything you do will be recorded by the censor. Do you think everything you did was perfect? So many people saw it that day. Anyone who knows a little bit about the palace knows what kind of kung fu they used. Mother, aren't you harming your son?"
The third prince looked at his mother with a headache.
He has always been dependent on his mother's family. The biggest help in his fight for the throne was the large amount of money he sent.
This allows him to have good connections with officials and reward them.
"Third Prince, what are you talking about? You are my son, how can I harm you? The Marquis' Mansion is your grandfather's home. In the future, the Marquis' Mansion will be your greatest support. If they get into trouble, of course, I will help them. Your grandmother has come to me for help, so I will definitely show some support. If I refuse, how can they help you in the future? Even if they can help you, I don't know if they will be willing to do so."
The imperial concubine knew it best, but everything her family did was for the entire Zhao family and for the future wealth of their sons and grandchildren.
He is also a member of the Zhao family, so naturally there is no way he would refuse.
The third prince rubbed his brows with a headache.
"Then you should discuss this with your son. Why did you send people out so easily? Many people outside know about this matter, and maybe the emperor knows it too. You sent people to kill people, but you lost so many soldiers and generals. Those people are all recorded in the book. Think about how you are going to explain this to the emperor? Your son really has no other choice."
Although the third prince is not the smartest one, his father has been the emperor for so many years and is definitely not stupid.
"Don't worry. Even if I am found out, I will explain to your father. You should leave immediately and return to your own residence. You are at a critical moment now. As a prince, you should not get involved in this matter. Leave immediately."
The imperial concubine's voice suddenly became serious.
"Okay, okay, son will leave right away. Mother, don't be angry and have a good rest." The third prince was eager to leave quickly. He bowed to the imperial concubine and left.
The third prince had just left the imperial concubine's bedroom.
At noon, the emperor came to the concubine's bedroom to eat.
"Your Majesty, you finally remembered me. It's time for lunch, so please stay here and have lunch together." When the imperial concubine saw the emperor coming, she became gentle and charming.
"Okay then, I'll stay for dinner today." The emperor's expression was still the same as usual, showing no emotion.
"I heard that the third brother came here just now?" The emperor said lightly while picking up the food with chopsticks.
The imperial concubine was stunned: "Yes, Your Majesty. He just came here to pay his respects and left after a while. This child is really something. He can't be seen until the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month."
The imperial concubine's mouth was full of accusations, but in her heart she felt so sorry for her son.
"Was it your idea or the third brother's idea to assassinate County Lady Gu Yao? He was just a small doctor. Why could you be so hard on him? If he died right under my nose in the capital, how would you let the world poke at my spine?"
When the emperor said this, his whole face became gloomy.
He had almost finished eating when he said this.
He only quarreled with the imperial concubine after he had eaten his fill.
The imperial concubine was sitting on a chair, but she suddenly slid off the chair and fell to her knees on the ground with a thud.
"Your Majesty, it's unfair. The Third Prince would never do such a thing. He is your son, how could he do such a thing? Who is slandering the Third Prince?" The imperial concubine did not mention herself.
"If it's not the Third Prince, then it must be you, the Imperial Concubine?" The Emperor's face turned dark.
I used to think that the imperial concubine was a well-educated and well-mannered woman.
I didn't expect that he could assassinate the county lord in such a crowded place.
If it was an ordinary person, it would be fine, he would just turn a blind eye.
This county lord was only recently canonized, and he saved the people of a city. It is said that many people in southern Xinjiang have enshrined Gu Yao's longevity tablets in their homes.
It has to be said that this made him, as an emperor, envious and jealous.
Many people in remote areas do not know him as the emperor and do not recognize him as the emperor.
Whoever gives them milk is their mother.
Since the county lady stayed in the capital, the emperor would naturally protect her safety. The county lady lived in the East City, where so many dignitaries were.
There are many people patrolling here, so generally no major mistakes will occur.
This time, the county princess encountered an assassination attempt outside the city, during such an important temple fair.
Many wives and daughters of high-ranking officials and scholars came here to play.
Even though they were looking for a remote place, they were still seen by someone with ulterior motives.
Naturally, many people outside knew that the tricks of those men in black came from the palace.
The emperor is so embarrassed now.
He was impeached by the censor at the court meeting early in the morning.
The emperor slammed his chopsticks directly onto the table, scaring the imperial concubine who was sitting on the ground so much that she trembled all over.
He had never seen the emperor so angry.
"Your Majesty, I am innocent." The imperial concubine said with her neck stiff.
"Unfair? Why would I wrong you? Or do you think I am a foolish and incompetent emperor?" The emperor never expected that the imperial concubine would still argue in front of him.
If he hadn't had the real intelligence, he wouldn't have believed that the imperial concubine, who had always been honest, would do such a thing. It really opened his eyes, and he also lost some masters in his palace.
The emperor only now realized that the little county princess actually had such a capable person in her hands, who was able to defeat the secret guards in the palace and easily escape.
While he was shocked, he also had a different opinion of the imperial concubine.
I really can't tell the priorities of things at all.
