Gu Linqiao's words were like a stone, hitting Feng Chengxuan's heart and causing thousands of waves.

"Feng Zhiqi was maliciously manipulated. You should know it very well. Besides, Feng Yunsu, the emperor pampered him a lot before. What's the result?"

Gu Linqiao said, "Even you can see that he is a knife in the emperor's hand, helping him solve things that cannot be brought to light. Now I feel that his power is too powerful, and I want him to die at the border."

Hearing this, Feng Chengxuan looked at Gu Linqiao. Seeing that he was about to open his mouth, Gu Linqiao interrupted him directly, "You don't have to defend the emperor. This time Feng Yunsu went on an expedition and the tricks done by the household department, Feng Yunsu and I Yun Su knows everything."

"The emperor is cruel and ruthless. Seeing peace in the world, he wants to eradicate all the beings he considers to be threats."

Feng Chengxuan couldn't help but said, "Peace in the world? How could it be? There are disasters everywhere on the border now. If you are not careful, the border will be opened, and the situation is critical."

Gu Linqiao sneered, "What if all the disasters are under his control?"

When Feng Chengxuan heard this, he sat upright and asked, "Sister-in-law Fourth, what do you mean by this?"

Gu Linqiao did not explain. He looked at Feng Chengxuan and said, "You may not believe what I say. Go and investigate on your own. I believe the truth will be revealed soon."

Feng Chengxuan sat still, his eyes blank.

"What? Do you doubt what I said?" Gu Linqiao asked again.

Feng Chengxuan nodded, "Every word the fourth sister-in-law said seemed to be trying to sow discord."

He is quite honest and can say anything.

Seeing his stupid look, Gu Linqiao suddenly smiled, "I'm not begging you to believe me, nor am I threatening you to do anything for me. If you don't believe me, forget it, Zuo In one ear, out the right ear, it’s that simple.”

Feng Chengxuan looked at Gu Linqiao, looking aggrieved.

Gu Linqiao was speechless and choked, "What's wrong? I didn't make you suffer."

"I think what you said is true, but what my father said to me, I also think is true. For a moment, I really don't know who to believe."

Feng Chengxuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Fourth brother has always been towards me, and I also want to protect fourth brother. Fourth sister-in-law has saved my life and the life of my mother and concubine, so I have to repay you. But since I was little, my father has really doted on me in private, and he has been very kind to my mother and concubine. I have always kept his sincere teachings in mind..."

"I'm not hiding it from my fourth sister-in-law. My father is indeed suspicious of my fourth brother, but I don't think my fourth brother is that kind of person. I think..."

Gu Linqiao interrupted him, "What you think is not important to your father. He only cares about what he sees and doesn't care about anything else."

“There is no such thing as having both, let alone having both.”

"Sister-in-law Fourth is right!"

Feng Chengxuan smiled bitterly. Compared with Feng Yunsu, his situation was really good.

If you want to keep your fourth brother, you have to disobey your father's will. If you want to follow your father, you have to let your fourth brother go.

He wanted to keep them all, but he had to work hard?

This problem is difficult to solve at the moment. Just take it one step at a time. Anyway, there will be a way to reach the mountain.

After figuring this problem out, Feng Chengxuan became more open-minded.

He stared at Gu Linqiao and said in a deep voice, "I will not turn a deaf ear to what the fourth sister-in-law said. I will verify it to the end. But please rest assured, the fourth sister-in-law, if the fourth brother is in trouble, I will not stand by and watch."

"I believe you on this."

In order to save her, even explosives from the court were obtained, and the risk of Feng Chengxuan's betrayal was not small.

"Let's go back."

Hearing Gu Linqiao's words, Feng Chengxuan raised his eyes and looked at her in surprise. Gu Linqiao said calmly, "I still have something to do, so I won't keep you here."

Feng Chengxuan nodded and stood up to leave. Gu Linqiao watched him leave, then turned and went to the backyard.

Feng Chengxuan slowly walked out of Gu's house. His carriage was waiting at the door. Before he got on, he heard his confidant whisper, "Master, Zhao Liquan has entered the palace."

Hearing this, Feng Chengxuan's eyes sharpened, "Did he summon him? Or did he go by himself?"

"There is an oracle!"

Feng Chengxuan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "Enter the palace."

He wanted to see what Zhao Liquan would say in front of his father?
  The carriage turned around and took another route, heading towards the palace.

Gu Linqiao naturally knew what happened at her door, but she didn't say much.

……

Feng Chengxuan handed the sign to the palace and went straight to the imperial study, but at this time Eunuch Fu was guarding outside the door.

Seeing him coming, Eunuch Fu quickly stepped forward and said, "I'm going to pay my respects to the Seventh Prince."

"Eunuch Fu, there's no need to be polite."

Feng Chengxuan spared his courtesy and then walked towards the door. Eunuch Fu stopped him again, "Seventh Prince, why did you suddenly enter the palace?"

"I have something to do with my father, so I came here."

When Feng Chengxuan saw Eunuch Fu looking like he wanted to stop him, he said, "Excuse me, please let me know. I see that my father is really in trouble."

Hearing this, Eunuch Fu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Okay, I will go and pass the message right now. The Seventh Prince will wait a moment."

Feng Chengxuan nodded. Unexpectedly, Eunuch Fu just opened the door, and Feng Chengxuan followed closely and went in directly.

"Seventh Prince, you can't go in. The Emperor has important matters to discuss. Please wait outside..."

Eunuch Fu did not stop him, Feng Chengxuan walked all the way to Feng Mingye, and Zhao Liquan was standing next to him.

As soon as Feng Chengxuan entered the palace, his eyes were on him. After Zhao Liquan noticed his gaze, he raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes calm and unflustered.

But in Feng Chengxuan's view, this calmness was more like provocation.

Before Feng Chengxuan could speak to Zhao Liquan, Feng Mingye asked first, "What did you do here? You can't even say a word of communication?"

Hearing this, Feng Chengxuan saluted respectfully, "Father, I heard that Mr. Zhao had entered the palace, so I came after him. I was a little worried about Mr. Zhao, but now I see that Mr. Zhao is fine. I'm really lucky."

When Feng Mingye heard this, his expression was very stern.

Zhao Liquan, on the other hand, thanked Feng Chengxuan with a smile, "I would like to thank the Seventh Prince for your concern. Although I am a little older, my body is still strong and I will be fine for the time being."

Feng Chengxuan said 'oh' and asked again, "What about Princess Qi? Is she okay?"

Zhao Liquan said calmly, "Has Princess Qi already looked back home?"

Hearing this, Feng Chengxuan became angry immediately, pointed at Zhao Liquan's nose and asked, "You kidnapped Princess Qi, what on earth do you want to do?"

After the words fell, the first person to speak was not Zhao Liquan, but Feng Mingye. He asked angrily, "Feng Chengxuan, what are you doing?"

Feng Chengxuan said immediately, "Father, when the fourth sister-in-law disappeared, I suspected that Zhao Liquan took the fourth sister-in-law away. Now he has admitted that he has evil intentions."

"The Seventh Prince misunderstood. It was not that the old minister took away Princess Qi, but that Princess Qi and the old minister had important matters to discuss. It was just that the incident happened suddenly and there was no time to tell the Gu family."

Zhao Liquan looked at Feng Chengxuan and said with a smile, "If the seventh prince doesn't believe it, he can ask Princess Qi to come into the palace to confront the old minister, and the truth will naturally come out."
