Chapter 426 The storm is coming
Gu Jingzhi returned home full of anger. He ignored other people's greetings along the way and went straight back to his residence.
"Erhu, call Feiyan over here!"
Before entering the door, Gu Jingzhi gave an order.
Chen Yu, who was in the room, heard her husband's voice and felt the anger that was being suppressed, and she couldn't help but walk out.
"what happened?"
Chen Yu stared at her husband in amazement. "Isn't today the coronation ceremony? What happened that made you so angry?"
She and Gu Jingzhi have been married for seven years, but this is the first time she has seen Gu Jingzhi so generous.
Even with all the calculations before, he had never acted so strongly. She knew very well that her husband could tolerate things in his heart. She had never seen such undisguised anger.
I've never seen my husband lose his composure.
Perhaps because he was in front of his wife, Gu Jingzhi calmed down a little, but he was still nervous and couldn't speak for a while.
Seeing this, Chen Yu hurried forward to help Gu Jingzhi calm down and said, "Husband, what happened?"
"..."
Gu Jingzhi felt suffocated and after a while, he cursed angrily: "Mad..."
Chen Yu: "..."
"Alright, alright! No matter how big the problem is, you have to take care of yourself first. If you get yourself hurt by anger like this, others won't feel sorry for you!"
"..."
Gu Jingzhi opened his mouth, and seeing his wife comforting him while calming him down, all he could say ended in a sigh: "Alas..."
Seeing him like this, his wife could only pour him a cup of tea and then accompany him silently.
Although she didn't know what had happened, based on her understanding of Gu Jingzhi and what he said at the door, she knew that something big was about to happen again.
When Qu Feiyan was summoned by Gu Jingzhi, she did not dare to stay for a moment. She appeared in front of Gu Jingzhi in an instant!
"Clap!"
Gu Jingzhi put down his teacup and said, "Whatever news there is in Hengzhou these days, no matter how big or small, tell me everything!"
Chen Yu was sitting nearby and was shocked when she heard her husband's words.
Hengzhou.
That venomous third brother!
Could it be that he was the one who made her husband become like this?
Upon hearing the order, Qu Feiyan quickly said, "Master, we haven't found any useful information in Hengzhou. Prince Heng usually stays at home and rarely goes out. Our brothers lurking in Prince Heng's mansion haven't found anything unusual!"
No exception?
"I am very disappointed with the ability of the secret guards!"
Almost instantly, Gu Jingzhi uttered these words coldly. He looked at Qu Feiyan deeply and said, "Everyone is slapping me in the face with their abacus beads, and you tell me there's nothing unusual in Prince Heng's Mansion?"
Throughout the game between Gu Jingzhi and Lao San, Lao San never showed any flaws. Even if Gu Jingzhi guessed and confirmed some things... there was no evidence of Lao San's direct involvement.
But what about this time?
The third brother confessed directly in front of him. Doesn’t he know the risks involved?
But he still told the story without hesitation, which means that the third brother already has a comprehensive plan, and even the plan has entered the implementation stage.
But the secret guard had no news at all.
You know, the secret guard is Gu Jingzhi's eyes.
When Qu Feiyan heard Gu Jingzhi's cold words, the blood drained from her face. She knelt on one knee and said, "Sir, I am incompetent!"
"..."
Gu Jingzhi narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Fei Yan, you disappoint me so much!"
"Today, Prince Heng told me in person, right in front of me, that he had been plotting against the former Crown Prince, now His Majesty, four years ago!"
"Do you know what this means?"
Gu Jingzhi's words were without any emotion, and when the other two heard them, their faces changed drastically!
Prince Heng is plotting against the current emperor?
Or was it four years ago?
This……
Almost instantly, an idea popped into their minds.
"Husband!"
Chen Yu stood up, her face extremely grim as she said, "I am also responsible for this matter. I..."
Looking at the difficult expression on his wife's face, Gu Jingzhi felt like he couldn't breathe. He held his breath for a long time, then waved his hand and said, "Sit down!"
talking.
He looked at Qu Feiyan and said, "You get up too!"
"Sir, I dare not! The secret guards' rebellion is due to my failure to discipline my subordinates. I beg you to punish me!"
"Get up when I tell you to!"
Gu Jingzhi said coldly: "Instead of begging me to punish you, you might as well think about how to make amends for your crimes!"
"This……"
Qu Feiyan frowned slightly, and finally she stood up helplessly.
Gu Jingzhi glanced at the two of them and sighed helplessly, "Prince Heng has always been cautious. The reason he dared to reveal everything to me today is probably because his plan has already begun to be implemented. There is no need to investigate the affairs of Prince Heng's Mansion anymore. The focus is to thoroughly investigate the traitor!"
"Fei Yan, you will personally go to Hengzhou to handle the affairs. Remember, no matter what happens in Prince Heng's Mansion, you don't need to worry about it. You just need to eliminate the traitors in Hengzhou!"
Since the third Viper has started playing with his cards openly, it means that what he wants to do has already begun!
Otherwise he wouldn't have revealed it at this time.
In this case, even if the secret guards found out some information, it would probably be of no use. It would be better to focus on thoroughly investigating the traitor.
He created the secret guards himself, and Chen Yu and Qu Feiyan were in charge of them. There had never been any problems. Even the internal guards had never found out who was in charge of the secret guards.
But by chance, the third brother discovered it and even instigated a rebellion...
Recalling that the problems that occurred repeatedly in the Inner Guard House were either caused by Jin Lehuang or the third brother, this shows that the third brother has capable people under his command, and they are capable people who specialize in dealing with intelligence agencies.
Thinking of this, he said, "After finding those traitors, find a way to find out who is in charge of the intelligence work of Prince Heng's Mansion. If possible, do your best to arrest them!"
Qu Feiyan stood aside and whispered, "Don't worry, sir. I will do my best to track them down!"
"Ok!"
Gu Jingzhi waved his hand, letting Qu Feiyan retreat, then looked at Chen Yu: "It's not just Hengzhou that's in trouble, it's also our mansion. Pay close attention these days and get rid of all the spies in the mansion, no matter who sent them!"
When Chen Yu heard this, he was shocked and asked, "Our house?"
"Ugh!"
Gu Jingzhi sighed, "Zhenzhen has already been discovered. What do you think?"
"King Heng?"
Chen Yu asked subconsciously.
"Not bad!"
"Many people have come to our mansion over the years. I originally thought that after the secret guards' screening, there should be no spies from other families sneaking into the mansion. I didn't expect that I would be wrong this time!"
Gu Jingzhi sighed softly.
At the beginning, he knew that there were people from the Inner Guard Bureau, and he had locked on the candidate early on.
They thought that if they sent him away directly, they might find a way to send someone else from the Inner Guard, which might even make the old emperor unhappy. So the spy from the Inner Guard was kept there. As long as they were careful and vigilant, nothing would go wrong.
Unexpectedly, the Inner Guards were able to defend themselves this time, but were discovered by the third brother's men!
This third venomous snake is quite capable.
Chen Yu heard this, thought for a moment, and said, "Should we also get rid of the spies in the Inner Guard?"
