Chapter 132: Despicable and Shameless Villain

Because he was called into the palace and reprimanded, Prince Yu was in a bad mood. He happened to meet Prime Minister Gu when he left the palace.

It was like enemies meeting, and their eyes were particularly red.

The two did not have the warmth and courtesy that relatives should have. Instead, their expressions were sarcastic and their eyes were full of hostility.

"Prime Minister, are you going to the palace to complain?" Prince Yu smiled coldly, "The emperor already knows about this matter and scolded me severely. The Prime Minister can save his saliva."

Prime Minister Gu looked angry: "My daughter married Mu Wenxuan to compromise. I thought the prince and the princess would treat her well, but I didn't expect-"

"To compromise?" Prince Yu sneered, "The good daughter raised by the Prime Minister's Mansion had a secret meeting with a man in broad daylight. It was really unfair for her to marry my son."

The Prime Minister's face gradually turned pale: "You-"

"Wenxuan is a royal descendant after all, but he was forced to marry an unruly woman. I don't know who is the one who compromised."

After saying this, Prince Yu flicked his sleeves and left.

Prime Minister Gu stood in the distance, his face gloomy, his eyes staring at Prince Yu's back fiercely.

Prince Yu's Mansion was so ungrateful that they married An Xian but didn't know how to cherish her.

He must teach Prince Yu's Mansion a hard lesson!

"By the way." Prince Yu suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Prime Minister Gu, his eyes sarcastically, "Your daughter has married my son. If our two families really become enemies, it shouldn't be good for the Prime Minister's Mansion, right?"

Prime Minister Gu was furious and was about to say something.

But Prince Yu shook his sleeves again and left, heading out of the palace gate without looking back.

What a despicable and shameless villain!

Prime Minister Gu took a deep breath, his heart boiling with anger.

"Uncle." Mu Xiuyu, wearing a royal blue brocade robe, walked over from afar, with a concerned look on his face, "How is Heyu?"

Prime Minister Gu turned around and saw the Fourth Prince. He had to suppress his anger temporarily and saluted Mu Xiuyu: "Meet His Royal Highness Prince Yu."

"Uncle, no need to be polite." Mu Xiuyu quickly supported his arm.

Prime Minister Gu's face was solemn: "Heyu's condition has not improved."

Mu Xiuyu heard this and a guilty look appeared on his face: "It's my incompetence--"

"Don't blame His Royal Highness Prince Yu." Prime Minister Gu's voice was gloomy, "If I find the person who poisoned him, I will cut him into pieces."

Mu Xiuyu's eyes flashed, and he thought of the man who was with Yan Li.

He sent people to search for half a day, but found no clues.

I don't know who the other party is. The poison he casually poisoned was so helpless that even the imperial physician was helpless.

"Uncle." Mu Xiuyu suddenly frowned and glanced at the direction where Prince Yu had just left. "Prince Yu entered the palace just now because of my cousin's maid Xiang'er?"

When Prince Yu was mentioned, Prime Minister Gu's expression became ugly again.

"Yeah." He nodded with a gloomy face. "Originally, I wanted to go to the palace to impeach Prince Yu's Mansion for misappropriating the bride's dowry privately, and to accuse them of bullying An Xian. I didn't expect that the emperor had received the news in advance and called Prince Yu into the palace to reprimand him."

Mu Xiuyu thought for a while: "Today, the guards of Prince Yu's Mansion chased Xiang'er in the street, causing quite a commotion."

And Xiang'er met the wife of Censor Shen on the road and told her the truth. It's not surprising that the emperor knew about it in advance.

Prime Minister Gu looked around and said in a low voice: "The prince has been very quiet recently?"

Mu Xiuyu nodded.

"We can't let him stay quiet." Prime Minister Gu's voice was a little deeper, and his eyes were as cold as a snake. "The fourth prince can take the initiative to find something for him to do."

If you don't do anything, how can you find a handle on him?

Although they can start from what they did in the past, it will inevitably make the emperor feel that they are adding insult to injury.

So the prince should be allowed to make mistakes on his own initiative, and they must be mistakes that can make the emperor furious.

Whether the emperor deposes him or punishes him at that time, it is all his own fault and has nothing to do with others.

"Uncle, you don't know. I am not worried about the prince at all now." Mu Xiuyu turned around and walked out of the palace gate with Prime Minister Gu. "The marriage between Prince Jing and Ling Ning, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Huguo, is the most disturbing."

Prime Minister Gu understood what he meant: "Although Prince Jing wants to marry the legitimate daughter of the Ling family, the emperor has not yet granted them a marriage. There is still room for maneuver in this matter."

Mu Xiuyu's eyebrows moved: "Uncle means..."

"Your Highness can also try to capture the heart of the legitimate daughter of the Ling family." Prime Minister Gu said lightly, "A gentleman loves a beautiful lady."

Before being named and without status, everyone has the right to pursue their love.

If the emperor acquiesces to King Jing's request to marry the daughter of the Ling family, then King Yu's request to marry her is the same, and the emperor should not object.

Mu Xiuyu frowned, "I really don't like the cold and indifferent temperament of the daughter of the Ling family."

"It doesn't matter whether you like her or not, what's important is the family power behind her." Prime Minister Gu said, "The Ninth Prince is like an insurmountable copper wall and iron wall. There is no hope of winning him over. We can only change our course."

No matter how cold Ling Ning is, she is still a woman after all.

Women are always soft-hearted.

As long as you find the right method, you don't have to worry about not winning her heart.

Mu Xiuyu thought silently, he understood what his uncle meant.

It doesn't matter whether you like Ling Ning or not, what's important is that if you marry her, you can get the support of the Huguogong Mansion behind her.

As long as you successfully ascend the throne as emperor, what if you make Ling Ning the queen after the three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines?

As long as you sit firmly on the throne and cultivate your own loyal generals, the Huguogong Mansion can be eliminated at any time, and the queen can be replaced at any time.

Mu Xiuyu nodded slowly, as if he had suddenly figured it out, "Thank you, uncle, for your advice."

Ling Ning was indeed not likable.

But she is a woman, once she gets married, she must learn to be docile.

It is common for royal relatives to have three wives and four concubines.

As a dignified and generous wife, it is her duty to manage the inner house for her husband and arrange concubines for him.

If she can be obedient, dignified and virtuous, she may be able to sit on the throne for a longer time, otherwise she will become an abandoned child in the cold palace sooner or later.

Mu Xiuyu imagined the scene of himself ascending to the throne in his mind, as if he had seen the scenery of the people bowing their heads and the ministers in the court paying homage in the future.

Surrounded by three thousand beauties in the harem, he enjoyed endless beauties.

As for Ling Ning... it didn't seem to matter whether she liked it or not.
