The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1880: Chapter 1880: Entering the Palace to Face the Emperor (Part 2)

Gu Sheng composed himself: ”Let’s go.” Then he quickly walked outside, but only he knew how he was trembling all over. When getting on the carriage, he stumbled a little, and if it weren’t for Ali supporting him, he might not have been able to climb up.

Gu Qingheng stood at the gate, watching the carriage go far away, with a cold smile on his lips. Gu Sheng, this is just the beginning. All the ”favors” you bestowed upon my mother and me back then, I will slowly return them one by one. No rush, we’ll take our time.

Upon returning, Gu Sheng’s raging anger led him to smash the entire study into a complete mess, which finally provided him with a bit of comfort.

Of course, Gu Kun quickly received the news of such a big event and immediately called his son over, as the father and son needed to discuss how to minimize the impact.

As for Gu Che... Although Gu Sheng did not believe he wasn’t his own son, a seed of doubt had been planted in his heart.

Furthermore, what made Gu Sheng uneasy was that Gu Ye claimed he had harmed Shu Manzhi. Did he have evidence? If that’s really the case... he must devise a plan. He can’t let all his hard-earned accomplishments slip away.

After sending Gu Sheng away, Lord Jiang brought Gu Qingheng to the Palace.

This matter was investigated by two departments together, so naturally, both had to see the Emperor.

Because weapons were found, this was a major concern, and even though it was late, it couldn’t be delayed.

In the Palace, Emperor Xuanjing had just finished dinner with the Empress Dowager and was chatting when he heard that Lord Jiang came with General Gu. He knew there must be an issue, so he hurriedly had them brought in.

”It’s so late, what’s the matter?” Emperor Xuanjing didn’t avoid the Empress Dowager, as Lord Jiang was her natal family member, so there was no need to hide anything.

After Lord Jiang and Gu Qingheng performed their etiquette, they recounted all the events of the day in detail: ”Emperor, if it were merely a random act, I wouldn’t have disturbed Your Majesty. But in the basement of Xiangshui Nunnery, we found no less than a thousand weapons, all sharpened. This matter, I dare not make a decision.”

Gu Qingheng stood behind Lord Jiang throughout, without saying a word.

”Outrageous!” Before Emperor Xuanjing could speak, the Empress Dowager slapped the table, ”How dare these chaotic people desecrate the Buddha? It’s utterly detestable!”

”Mother!” Emperor Xuanjing immediately stood up, walked behind the Empress Dowager, and gently patted her back, ”Calm down.”

The Empress Dowager exhaled: ”I’m not angry, but those people should not be lightly spared.”

”Rest assured.” Emperor Xuanjing nodded and then signaled to the people around him, ”Support the Empress Dowager to rest.”

Hong Ye quickly stepped forward to escort the Empress Dowager to the back.

”Let’s talk in the Royal Study Room.” Emperor Xuanjing got up and walked out.

As soon as they entered the Royal Study Room, the Emperor slapped the table directly: ”Ridiculous!”

Lord Jiang and Gu Qingheng hurriedly knelt down.

”I’m not referring to you. Why are you kneeling? Stand up!” Emperor Xuanjing exhaled; earlier facing the Empress Dowager, he held his anger, and only now did he finally release it, ”Execute them. Leaving such people is a calamity.”

”Emperor.” Gu Qingheng quickly stepped forward, ”I feel it is inadvisable.”

”Why?” Emperor Xuanjing raised his eyebrows slightly.
