Chapter 602: 289 The Deceptive Dowager Empress (First Update)_2

"But, it’s not the whole truth.

Tang Yueshan also said that he was drugged before he attacked Tang Ming, and advised him to see a doctor promptly.

At the time, he was completely confused and didn’t understand why Tang Yueshan said that.

Tang Yueshan further mentioned that Tang Ming didn’t do it knowingly, as he was also drugged, expressing hope that neither of them would be used as a pawn by the schemer behind the scenes and end up becoming enemies.

He clearly understood what kind of person Tang Ming was; Ming certainly wasn’t drugged.

It was not until his return journey that he gradually understood that his sister must have tricked Tang Yueshan in some way.

About the assassin, Gu Jiao came to find Gu Changqing. She asked him to set fire to the punishment room and create the illusion of escape, luring the assassin to make a move and frame him.

This morning, Tang Yueshan told him that the assassin had been dealt with. Gu Changqing then thought that Tang Yueshan had captured the real assassin.

Regarding the part that Gu Jiao was involved in, Gu Changqing did not mention it to the old Marquis.

The old Marquis had not crossed swords with the assassin, thus unaware of how cunning the assassin was. Thinking of Tang Yueshan’s capabilities, he didn’t consider it surprising that such a person was captured, and therefore didn’t suspect anything.

Despite the old Marquis being eager to find out what kind of irreconcilable differences Gu Changqing had with Tang Ming, since Changqing didn’t speak about it, there was nothing the Marquis could do.

The old Marquis exhorted him to rest well and said that there was no need to go to the Military Camp for a few days. Then he got up and left.

Such a great commotion had been caused, and not only did Tang Yueshan want to find out who was behind all this, but he also wanted to understand who was stabbing him in the back.

Not long after the old Marquis left, Gu Chengfeng arrived.

After stewing for a while, he remembered some important matters and came over to find Gu Changqing for clarification.

"Big brother, did you know that our sister is acquainted with the Queen Mother?" he asked.

Gu Changqing, who was polishing his longsword, looked at him, left his gaze on him for a moment, and continued to clean his sword, saying, "Hmm, she knows her."

Is that all?

Couldn’t he give a more sincere answer?

Could I be the one thinking of spreading around his sister’s secrets?

"I saw it!" Gu Chengfeng pouted.

Gu Changqing paused for a moment and said, "Some things you don’t need to know too much about. Whether she knows the Queen Mother or not, it has no relation to the situation in Capital City."

Gu Chengfeng grunted, "You say it as if I would go complaining to grandfather. Also, who cares about that girl’s secrets?"

I obviously know more than you!

Do you know that girl messed with Tang Ming?

She looked at herself wearing it in the mirror.

Um, it looks good!

"Thank you, great aunt," Gu Jiao expressed her gratitude.

The Queen Mother snorted.

Eunuch Qin personally sent Gu Jiao to Bishui Alley before returning to the palace.

Last night, Eunuch Qin had passed on the word to her family that Gu Jiao was staying with the Queen Mother. Everyone at home knew this, so they weren’t worried. It was just that little Jingkong didn’t see Gu Jiao when he woke up and pouted all morning, so much so that it was big enough to hang two oil cans.

Gu Jiao decided to go and pick up little Jingkong from school to surprise him.

However, after waiting outside Guozijian for a long time, Gu Jiao didn’t see Jingkong. What Gu Jiao didn’t know was that Jingkong had been called into the principal’s office yet again.

The parent called in was Xiao Liulang.

Ever since Xiao Liulang joined the Hanlin Academy, the number of times he was called in by his superiors was far less than the number of times he was called in to be a parent.

"Wha, what’s the reason this time?" When Liu Quan came to notify Xiao Liulang, Liulang squeezed his hands into fists and asked Liu Quan.

Liu Quan forced out a laugh uglier than a cry. "Well, it’s better if you see it for yourself."

Xiao Liulang clenched his teeth and said, "What can’t you say? He even managed to make the teacher cry. Can there be something more serious than this?"
