Chapter 84 Send Your Majesty to the Funeral Day (11)

Shi Yu smiled lightly, as if he didn't listen to his words at all.

The full moon was in the sky, and the bright light shone on her face, adding a bit of holiness and softness to her, but these charming fox eyes were full of worldly calculations.

"The king of Zhanbei, the fourteenth younger brother of the first emperor, had a deep affection for the princess of Zhanbei. After the princess passed away due to illness, she was heartbroken and coughed up blood. She lost her body. Because of the pain, she couldn't calmly indulge herself, and often went to the place of fireworks to fool around."

"It's been rumored by everyone that love has become a libertine."

Gu Zhan's eyes darkened a little, and the smile on the corner of his mouth raised a cold arc, "It seems that you are really not afraid of death."

"King Zhanbei, a wise man speaks wise words. You clearly know who I am. What you did just now was intentional. You need me to escape danger."

Gu Zhan sneered, "I need you? Do you know what I'm talking about?"

Shi Yu leaned closer to Gu Zhan, lowered his head and sniffed lightly on Gu Zhan's arm, "My lord, you are injured. You must have gone somewhere you shouldn't have gone, and you need a witness to remove the suspicion."

The smile on the corner of Gu Zhan's mouth cooled down a little bit, and then he raised the same smile as before.

"This test is really good, but the king is not injured."

"But the lord seems to have indeed gone to a place he shouldn't have gone, otherwise there wouldn't be what happened just now."

Gu Zhan looked at her with dark eyes, the thin white neck looked like it would break if pinched, it's a pity that such a smart person will not live long.

"My lord, let's cooperate."

Seeing the gloomy look in his eyes, Shi Yu directly pointed out the intention of cooperation.

"Cooperation? What does this king want to cooperate with you?" Gu Zhan stared firmly into Shi Yu's eyes.

"Naturally ascend to the highest position."

There was flickering light in Gu Zhan's eyes, but he didn't respond, he just smiled and said, "I'm used to being free and easy, but I don't want to be a ninety-five supreme being at all."

"What's more, my good nephew was also supported by you alone. When I saw him today, he is indeed not a mortal."

Shi Yu sneered, she looked at the lake not far away, the moonlight in her eyes was cold and cold.

"I had a condition in exchange for helping him, but he didn't do it. If so, I would naturally have to defect. My lord, you may not be able to see the great ambitions in your heart, but I know it clearly."

Shi Yu looked at him seriously and earnestly, "My lord, don't lie to me and deceive myself."

A layer of waves surged in Gu Zhan's heart.

For so many years, everyone thought that his loss of his beloved wife was ridiculous, treated him like a useless person, and coaxed him like a dog.

Those ministers, round after round of temptations, were finally deceived by him.

After so many years, his heart has really been worn down a lot.

Being exposed at this moment, whether she was deceiving him on purpose or really reminding him, Gu Zhan felt unspeakable emotions in his heart.

"Shi Yu." He called out her name accurately.

Shi Yu smiled knowingly.

Sure enough, he recognized her from the very beginning.

"Since you know what I want, what do you want? Or what is your cooperation with my good nephew?"

Shi Yu leaned against the rockery, and a cold feeling came over her, and her eyes were as cold as ice.

"Take down the prime minister."

Gu Zhan was a little surprised.

"My lord, please collect the prime minister's criminal evidence."

Gu Zhan pondered for a while, "The prime minister is a veteran of the three dynasties and has many disciples. There is no way to completely bring him down just by accumulating money and corruption. The prime minister's house is deeply rooted, why do you insist on it?"

Shi Yu met Gu Zhan's gaze earnestly, "It seems that the prince has already investigated him, so I will accuse him of a crime that will make him irreparable."

"How about collaborating with the enemy and treason?"

Hearing the words "collaborating with the enemy and treason", Gu Zhan's expression immediately became serious, and he frowned, "Are you sure?"

Shi Yu sighed in his heart, after all, Gu Zhan is more suitable to be emperor than Gu Beiting.

Gu Beiting was clearly aware of the prime minister's evil deeds and still wanted to rely on his prestige in the court to stabilize his position, without thinking about what would happen to the country.

A selfish person like Gu Beiting really doesn't deserve it.

"My lord, follow this route to investigate carefully, starting from the slandered Shangshufu family, I believe there will be gains."

Gu Zhan looked at the calm Shi Yu and asked, "Who are you...?"

"When the prince finds out the key, he will naturally know."

The wind at night enveloped the two of them with a coolness. During the brief silence, Gu Zhan never left Shi Yu's eyes. He felt a little strange in his heart.

It's as if...she knows everything.

Her eyes are very calm, but this layer of calm is like an illusion, what will happen if it is torn apart, he wants to see!

"I know what you mean, so how do you plan to help me when you say help me?"

Shi Yu smiled faintly, "Don't worry, my lord, as long as the prime minister is overthrown, the emperor dies suddenly without heirs, is the throne still in the hands of the lord?"

Gu Zhan chuckled, "I don't want to be questioned as a traitor."

"Don't worry, my lord, everything will be fine with an imperial decree."

Shi Yu smiled lightly, she said it was as simple as eating and sleeping, which was obviously a big deal, she was very confident.

"Okay, I will trust you just once, don't let me down, just live longer in this palace."

Shi Yu said word by word: "Naturally."

This night, calm and not calm.

Shi Yu had a faint smile on his face when he returned to his palace.

Originally, I thought it would take a few more days to find an alliance, but I didn't expect to meet him suddenly today, which is also a coincidence.

I hope he can really find out some criminal evidence against the prime minister.

On the second day, Gu Beiting woke up early. He glanced at Zhuang Xianyou who had been flustered for half the night and fell asleep very late last night, and left lightly without waking her up.

After packing up and going out, Eunuch Li whispered to him, "Your Majesty, last night a guard saw King Zhanbei in the palace with the maid..."

Even if he didn't say what happened next, Gu Beiting knew it.

He sneered contemptuously, "My uncle, that's all he likes. As long as you don't go too far, let him go."

"Yes."

Gu Beiting recalled that period of time, he was full of resentment and only wanted to be in power, his brothers all died one by one, and his sisters all married off and got married after he came to power, and they never thought of coming back in this life.

He just wants to eradicate everyone who threatens him.

The succession of the throne, his uncle is also very likely. He wanted Shi Yu to do it, but she said don't worry about it. His [-]th uncle can't affect him. One more thing is worse than one thing less. Let it go.

Facts have proved that this is indeed the case, his indulging in wine and sex can't cause any trouble.

Let him make a fuss.

As for Shi Yu...

Thinking of what she said to him in Qinzheng Palace, his heart softened again.

"Let's go to enjoy the Yu Palace in the morning."
