In the Eastern Palace.
Gu Changsheng carried his treasured sword and Tang Yuxian followed behind him. He swaggered back to his residence.
However, the Zhan Shi Manor's official had been waiting in the Eastern Palace for a long time.
Seeing Gu Changsheng come back, Secretary Zhan bowed respectfully and said,""Your Highness the Crown Prince, His Majesty has been waiting for a long time. Please move to Xingqing Palace.”
Hearing that, Gu Changsheng was also stunned.
Xingqing Palace?
Isn't that Noble Consort Zhang's palace?
Why did she ask him to go to Xingqing Palace for no reason?
Noble Consort Zhang was the birth mother of the Third Prince, Gu Changming.
This mother and son pair were extremely ambitious.
The big ones were thinking about the position of the empress, while the small ones were thinking about the position of the crown prince.
It was just that this mother and son pair had always hidden themselves very well, and the Emperor did not notice it at all, so the mother and son pair were also very doted on.
"Got it. Lead the way."
Therefore, after Gu Changsheng returned to the Eastern Palace, he went straight to Xingqing Palace.
Xingqing Palace.
"Wow, it's quite lively!"
Upon arriving at Xingqing Palace, Gu Changsheng found that it was quite lively.
Not only was Noble Consort Zhang and her son there, but the old thing, the Grand Fuguo General, was also there.
Even Gu Qingge was there.
"Your son greets Imperial Father!"
Gu Changsheng bowed to Gu Tianqi as usual.
Then, he glared at Gu Qingge.
"No need for formalities."
Gu Tianqi nodded in satisfaction and continued,"This time, the Third Prince has toured the seven continents in the northwest. The people live and work in peace and contentment.”
After saying that, Gu Tianqi revealed a smile on his face, and there was a hint of praise in his words.
"Imperial Father is too kind. It is your son's duty to share Imperial Father's worries.”
The Third Prince, Gu Changming, who was standing at the side, was instantly overwhelmed by the favor. He said extremely humbly, as if he was a filial son and grandson.
Then, he glanced at Gu Changsheng. There was a hint of pride in the depths of his eyes.
This inspection tour of the seven northwestern provinces was meticulously planned by him to please the emperor and let the emperor witness his ability.
And he would be one step closer to the position of Crown Prince!
Naturally, Gu Changsheng could not hide this from him.
However, Gu Changsheng just shrugged his shoulders casually and did not put his stupid brother in his eyes.
"That's right, Your Majesty. You're praising that kid to the heavens.”
Noble Consort Zhang also pursed her lips and chuckled.
This made Gu Tianqi even happier. Then, he looked at Gu Changsheng and Gu Qingge and handed them a memorial. He slowly said,""This is the memorial that the Third Prince compiled after touring the seven continents in the northwest. Take a look and then tell me your opinions.”
However, Gu Changsheng waved his hand and rejected him on the spot.
"Imperial Father, don't. I don't want to govern the country. Gu Qingge, you do it!”
After saying that, Gu Changsheng did not take the memorial from Gu Tianqi's hands. Instead, he pushed the memorial in Gu Tianqi's hands to Gu Qingge with a righteous look.
"What? Are you still asleep? You're the crown prince.”
Gu Qingge was unhappy on the spot. Why should Gu Changsheng, the Crown Prince, idle around every day?
She was just a free princess. Why did she have to do hard work for him every day?!
Although she was determined to ascend the throne and regain her throne, why was she always working for you for free?
Even if you're my younger brother!
Hence, Gu Qingge pushed Gu Tianqi's memorial to Gu Changsheng.
Hence, the two of them directly quarreled in front of everyone in Xingqing Palace.
Gu Tianqi's hand was pushed back and forth in the air, and it was very awkward for a moment.
"What Crown Prince? That's all fake. I still think highly of you.”
"Is this human language? You, the crown prince, seek pleasure every day and don't work?”
"Then you work, the Crown Prince will give it to you!”
"Gu Changsheng, are you asking for a beating?”
"Come on! Let's fight, who's afraid of who!"
As they quarreled, the two of them rolled up their sleeves and prepared to fight.
Gu Changming's face turned green.
That was the Crown Prince!
The Crown Prince!
He was conscientious and conscientious, he had been thinking about it, he had worked hard, and he had carefully planned to obtain the position of Crown Prince.
You're pushing me around!
You guys are disrespecting me!
Don't give it to me!
The two of them were clearly trying to disgust him!
"Alright, what's with all the noise?”
Helplessly, Gu Tianqi retracted his hand again. He was really at his wit's end against the siblings.
"Qing Ge, how is the mess in the Imperial City that you handled going?”
Gu Tianqi put the memorial in his hand aside and asked Gu Qingge.
As soon as these words were said, the expressions of Noble Consort Zhang, Gu Changming, and the assisting general at the side seemed to be a little ugly.
Those martial artists had infiltrated Taiqian City under their orders to stir up trouble and disrupt the security of the Imperial City.
Once the Imperial City was in chaos and the Imperial Army Marshal was held accountable, they could take the opportunity to remove the position of Imperial Army Marshal and push the position of Vice Marshal.
The Imperial Army held great weight. With the Imperial Army in his hands, he controlled almost half of the capital.
Thus, as long as Gu Changming took the Imperial Army under his command, then he would have more confidence in his fight for the position of Crown Prince.
In the end, the martial arts experts that they had gathered were all wiped out by the people of Wushuang Sword Pavilion overnight.
It had directly disrupted their plans.
At this moment, Gu Changsheng and Gu Qingge had yet to fight.
"Imperial Father, after your son's investigation, the martial artists who infiltrated the Imperial City and used their martial arts to break the rules have all colluded with the Vice Marshal of the Imperial Army.”
With that, Gu Qingge looked at the Defending General and continued meaningfully,""If I remember correctly, Vice Commander Guo Kai of the Imperial Army seems to be the Great General's disciple, right?”
At this moment, Gu Changsheng looked at his stupid brother and said slowly,""There's also the Northwest Xuzhou Guotai Mingan? But I heard that a large number of corrupt officials appeared there, causing the people to live in poverty and even causing riots?”
As soon as these words were said, the expressions of Gu Changming and General Fu Guo changed drastically.
Noble Consort Zhang was also shocked, but she still pretended to be calm.
