"It seems that the news is true!"

"what news?"

Gu Ze looked at Xie Ju'an and asked curiously.

"A few days ago, I received news from Jinling

"It is said that the news of Gongyi Cheng’s death spread back to Jinling."

"King Pingnan sent his prince Shen Jie to Beijing"

"I just thought this was fake news"

"After all, King Pingnan only has one son."

"How could he be willing to let his son come to this dragon's den in the capital?"

"But now it seems"

"This news should be true!"

Xie Ju'an said, his face a little ugly.

Because, he knew very well.

If it is really Shen Jie, it means that the person he placed in the palace must have been used in this matter.

"Prince Pingnan? I see!"

Gu Ze nodded lightly.

He really didn't know about this matter.

Although he dispatched a lot of royal guards to Jinling, the time was still too short after all.

Even if there were people who had sneaked into the palace, they would not be able to contact him. Not much important information

"Also, give me the list of people you have installed in the palace! You can't even protect these people! Just keep a few people in high positions!"

"You know, if I really want to check, you might not even be able to keep those few!"

Gu Ze looked at Xie Ju'an and said softly.

When Xie Ju'an heard Gu Ze's words, his expression turned even uglier.

But he also knew that what Gu Ze said was true.

If you don't check carefully about many things, no one will find out..

But if you really look into it carefully, there are many things that cannot be hidden.

"Okay, just wait for a moment and I'll write you a list!"

As he said that, Xie Ju'an stood up and walked towards the door.

Soon, Xie Ju'an walked in with a list.

"This list is all the people I have in the palace! I only left out a few of the most important ones!"

After Xie Ju'an said this, his whole body became a little depressed.

The people on this list were all those he had put so much effort into placing in the palace.

As a result, now because of this incident, All ruined

"By the way, what are the characteristics of that Shen Jie?"

After Gu Ze put away the list, he asked Xie Ju'an again

"Shen Jie has no characteristics! He's just a young man in his twenties! However, he has an entourage named Sun Xing who will follow him wherever he goes!"

"This Sun Xing has a scar on his face, from his forehead to his chin! If he wasn't disguised, he would be easily recognized!"

Xie Ju'an thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.

"okay, I get it! If there is any news about Shen Jie, please notify me!"

Gu Ze said, stood up

"It's getting late, so I'll leave first! If you have anything to do in the future, you can come to see me directly at the Duke Wei Wei’s Mansion!"

Then, he turned around and walked outside.

Xie Ju'an looked at Gu Ze's leaving figure and didn't get up to see him off. He just sat on the chair with a gloomy face and didn't know what he was thinking.

After leaving Xie's Mansion, Gu Ze After getting on the carriage, the carriage drove towards the inner city.

Gu Ze took out the list from his sleeve and looked at it.

He found that there were quite a few people on the list.

No wonder Xie Ju'an looked so ugly just now.

In addition , On the other hand, after Gu Ze left,

Dao Qin and Jian Shu also came to the living room.

"Sir, is that the person we finally placed in the palace, and we just handed it over to him like this?"

Jian Shu looked at his husband with some reluctance and asked.

"What can I do if I don’t pay? Your Majesty will definitely be furious about what happened this time! The Imperial City Department will definitely conduct a thorough investigation of the entire palace!"

"Rather than not being able to protect any of them, it’s better to protect a few useful ones!"

Xie Ju'an said with an ugly face.

Then he raised his head and looked at the sword book and said in a deep voice

"Jianshu, let everyone in the capital get away! If that prince really comes to Beijing! Will definitely be in town!" He knows the only son of King Pingnan very well. He is so arrogant and extravagant that if you want him to stay in the wilderness, he will definitely not be able to stay.

"Yes, sir!"

Jian Shu said, turned around and left the living room.

And Xie Ju'an looked at Dao Qin again.

"Daoqin, are you really no match for the person next to him?"

"Yes, sir! As soon as he entered the yard, his energy locked onto me! I feel like if I make the slightest move, he will definitely crush me to death in an instant!"

Dao Qin's face was also a little ugly.

The Zhao Yun just now was definitely the most powerful person he had ever met.

Hearing this, Xie Ju'an nodded lightly.

Then, his face became calm, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

When Gu Ze returned to Duke Wei's Mansion, Uncle Fu had not rested yet.

Seeing Gu Ze coming back, Uncle Fu hurriedly asked his servants to bring the prepared midnight snacks.

After Gu Ze had some midnight snacks, he returned Arriving at his room. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Ren Xin sitting at the table

"Ruyi, you haven't rested yet?"

Gu Ze looked at Ren Xin and laughed softly.

"Await your return! The emperor summoned you to the palace late at night. Is there something going on?"

Ren Xin stood up and walked to Gu Ze. While helping Gu Ze take off his clothes, he asked softly. There is some trouble in the palace.

No, the emperor has no one he can trust.

He can only blame me. Come on!

Gu Ze took off his coat, turned around, hugged Ren Xin and said with a smile.

Then, without hiding anything, he told Ren Xin roughly what happened in the palace.

"Ruyi, tomorrow you ask Jin Yiwei's people to secretly search for a man with a scar on his face in the capital!"

"After discovering it, don’t act rashly yet!"

Gu Ze hugged Ren Xin and said softly

"good!"

Ren Xin nodded lightly and agreed with a smile.

After the two of them finished talking about the matter, Gu Ze took Ren Xin's hand and walked into the bedroom.

There was no words all night.

The next morning, Gu Ze He got up early.

But there was no trace of Ren Xin around him.

When Gu Ze saw this, he didn't care.

After getting up and washing up, he took Zhao Yun and left the Duke's Mansion after breakfast.

The palace, Gu Qianfan was already waiting at the palace gate.

Seeing Gu Ze get off the carriage, Gu Qianfan hurriedly greeted him

"Lord!"

After Gu Qianfan saluted, he softly shouted

"Qianfan, you came very early!"

Gu Ze looked at Gu Qianfan and said with a smile.

"My lord, it’s too late! Your Majesty was furious again this morning! If our Imperial City Department doesn't show some attitude, we will really suffer!"

Gu Qianfan explained with a wry smile.

The Imperial City Secretary is His Majesty's personal guard.

But now a night has passed, and nothing has been found except a corpse.

Naturally, Shen Lang's mood is not much better.

And Gu Ze listened. He didn't care what Gu Qianfan said.

He led Gu Qianfan towards the palace.
