C359 He was right in front of him

The emperor was not at court today, he was only at the South Study to meet with the ministers, Morong Gan was not in his field of audience, so he could only return to the residence early.

Huangfu Zhuer had just finished breakfast when she saw him at the door. She was not surprised, "Third Brother, why did you all come back so early today?"

Morong Gan laughed bitterly, "The Emperor is not coming today."

"Why?"

Morong Gan shook his head, his eyes filled with worry, "I heard that the Queen is not so well off. I think the Royal Brother is worried.

Huangfu Zhuer snorted, "Isn't he the type to do big things? This kind of girly relationship isn't good, and the Queen isn't bad either. If it wasn't for her helping out for a few years, I think the Emperor would have …"

Morong Gan looked at her, "You're not in the imperial court, you know quite a lot."

Huangfu Zhuer blushed and explained: "I do know a bit about the people of Emperor and Empress. Previously, the Crown Prince Brother also said it was a pity that the Queen was a woman, if not, she could have become an official in the imperial court and helped govern the world."

Morong Gan sighed, "It's good to be a good person, I hope Royal Sister-in-law can endure through this winter."

"The empress became like this most likely because she's working too hard. Whoever stays by the side of the emperor won't have a good ending."

"Pearl."

"Third Brother, actually, you know more about the Emperor's character than I do. He killed the Crown Prince Brother, he killed my Huangfu Clan, his wolf ambition …"

"Pearl!" Morong Gan emphasized his tone, "I already said, you're not allowed to talk about this anymore."

"I have to say this," Huangfu Zhuer knew that he was angry, but so what? She said fearlessly, "Morong Han is a despicable person who smiles like a tiger. What happened that year, was clearly him …"

"Say it again!" Morong Gan suddenly raised his palm and stared straight at her with his ice-cold eyes.

Huangfu Zhuer was so scared that her heart started to tremble, but she could not retreat. She raised her head and said, "Go ahead and hit me, unless you beat me to death, I have to say more."

Morong Gan stared at her fiercely, but he kept his anger to a minimum, and in the end, could not help but sigh, and dropped his hand.

"Zhu'er, I won't let Royal Brother touch a single hair on your head, and I won't let you threaten him. You are all my family, so why do you insist on fighting to the death?"

"Third Brother, wake up a bit. Do you take him as your relative, but does he take you as your relative? "He clearly knows that you have made quite a lot of enemies, yet he still took away your military power. He clearly wants you dead."

"Enough, stop talking!" The anger that Morong Gan had just suppressed rose again, he flung his sleeves and turned to leave.

Huangfu Zhuer watched his back as she turned, and the fist that she had hidden in his sleeves slowly opened. Just now, she was extremely afraid, but she had to force him, and while she was here, the Emperor had to force her. That person said, if the Emperor were to withdraw his troops, he would definitely not let Morong Gan get away with it.

On the second day, when the emperor was not at court, Gao Shenghai called a few ministers over to help him with his South Study, but his name was not among them. This was expected, Morong Gan could only smile bitterly in his heart.

When he was walking towards the afternoon gate, the Prince Jin that he had not seen for a long time suddenly appeared out of nowhere and called him in a low voice, "Third Brother."

Morong Gan turned his head and saw that it was him, and smiled slightly: "I haven't seen you around recently, did you live at the Railed Yard again?"

The normally mischievous Prince Jin had a rare serious look on his face: "Third Brother, I heard that you returned the Tiger Talisman to Royal Brother?"

Morong Gan indifferently replied. He made a sound.

"Third Brother is confused," Prince Jin said anxiously. "How can you hand it over, it's your protective talisman!"

"I owe Pearl my life. Using the Tiger Tally to exchange for her is worth it."

Prince Jin could not help but scold, "What is there to be proud of!? In the past two days when the Royal Brother has not been at court, have you been called to see you at South Study? All the hundred officials of the imperial court are shrewd people, they are naturally aware of the attitude of the Royal Brother towards you. In the past, you have offended many people for the Royal Brother, but now, you have gone down, they are not even able to trample on you, instead, you are using the Imperial Consort Bai as the first place, taking advantage of the fact that you are Bai Rubing.

Morong Gan looked into the distance, "I'm worried about the Royal Sister-in-law, if she can't take it, then things will get complicated."

"I'm also worried," Prince Jin said. "But I'm more worried about you."

"Don't worry, Royal Brother can't care about me right now."

Prince Jin suddenly thought of something, "Last time, Third Brother said he was worried about Huangfu Zhuer, what did he discover?"

"She really does want to take revenge. However, I've already been handed over the military power. Although she forced me to do so, she also knew that it's useless."

"In my memory, she is still the Huangfu Zhuer from before. It's hard to imagine what she's forcing you to look like."

"People change, not to mention that she has suffered from such a huge change, so it is only natural that her temperament would change." That said, a small face and a pair of large, dark eyes suddenly appeared in his mind. If there was anyone in this world whose personality could not change, it would probably be her.

"Third Brother's words are wrong, I knew that there would be someone who would not change his or her intentions no matter what happens."

Morong Gan exclaimed, "Is there such a person?"

Prince Jin looked at him meaningfully, "Of course there is. was the one who told me that. It's really rare to be able to maintain that innocence. "

Of course he knew that Prince Jin was referring to Bai Qianfan, it was just that he had not heard of her for a long time, and suddenly wanted to hear about her. She was far away in the manor, but he wasn't worried at all. He knew that no matter where she was, she would be able to live a life of luxury.

The two brothers slowly walked towards the entrance of the palace. They didn't seem to meet anyone along the way, but he knew that in the dark, there would always be people watching them.

"If you don't have anything important to do during this period of time, don't meet with me."

The Prince Jin disapproved, "Royal Brother knows that my relationship with you has always been good."

"The situation is different, the choices are different. The Royal Brother will see for himself, if he can't protect me, he can at least protect you."

"Third Brother!" Prince Jin frowned.

"Why are you making such a fuss? I was joking with you. When we leave the palace gates, let's go our separate ways. Don't follow me anymore. "

Prince Jin glanced at him, "Who wants to follow you?" He strode forward and entered his palanquin.

Morong Gan then quickly mounted his horse and pulled the reins as he galloped away. Ning Jiu hurried to catch up with them. After running for a while, he realized that Morong Gan was not going back to the Duke Palaces, but rather, to the outskirts of the city. He ran out of the palace and headed west.

Morong Gan galloped his horse up a mountain slope. Below the hill was a plain field, with fields, mountain forests, rivers, and houses shrouded in forest. One could vaguely see the eaves of the roofs.

He sat on the horse and silently gazed out of the eaves.

Jia Tong looked for a long time before recognizing the place. He gave Ning Jiu a meaningful glance, but Ning Jiu completely ignored him, so he could only bite the bullet and go up. "My prince, if you miss my wife, then you should go over and take a look."

Morong Gan seemed to be suddenly awakened and turned to look at him. What kind of gaze was that, it was as sharp as a blade, causing Jia Tong to feel goosebumps all over his body.

Without waiting for him to speak, Morong Gan pulled the reins and turned the horse's head, returning back to the road.

Jia Tong was a little confused, he asked Ning Jiu, "The King, this is …"

Ning Jiu scolded an idiot as he chased after his.

Jia Tong scratched the back of his head, "I can clearly see that the Duke is thinking of my Royal Consort, but why is he still an idiot?" "Xiao Jiu, tell me clearly, how did I become an idiot?"
