Princess and the General

ing that I should have done.
Moreover, Kun WuShang knows me too well.
He came prepared, while I had no grasp on how to prepare the antidote, so I invited master to come earlier to feel at ease.”

Bringing up Kun WuShang, she suddenly thought of something.

“Right, master brought some news.
He said that for the contribution of dragging down the previous prime minister, Kun WuShang obtained some power in Western Kun.
Now, he is the only prince capable of competing with the crown prince.
Emperor Kun intends to train him to weaken the crown prince, which allowed Kun WuShang to gain quite a great deal.”

Gu HuaiJiang thought for quite a long time, “Kun WuShang is not someone to underestimate.
He pretends to be weak while destroying the strong.
It is very difficult for normal people to see his true self.
If Western Kun ends up under his control, the border between the two countries will become even more unstable…”

Yu Fu also thought of this, “I have already asked second senior disciple to absolutely get revenge on him for me when he returns to Immortals Valley.
Unfortunately, he currently doesn’t dare return to Immortals Valley.
He must know that if he returns, master will definitely deal with him for me.”

“He’s not stupid.
He clearly knows that the Deity of Medicine dotes on you the most.
How could he dare return?”

Gu ShuBai picked up the tongs from the side and used them to pick up the report written by Gu HuaiJiang.
It was the one detailing the truth behind his poisoning.
Lifting the corner, he allowed the fire to burn brighter, only putting the tongs down once all of the paper had been reduced to ash.

“Father, nobody in the palace knows that His Majesty was poisoned and not sick.
As for the person behind the poisoning, I trust that they also believe that the Deity of Medicine won’t expose the truth of the matter.
I figure that there is no longer any need for us to worry about it in the future.”

Gu HuaiJiang nodded, “This matter has already been swept under the rug in the palace, and it’s even more important that it does not leak from Marquis Gu’s Manor.
You must remember to act the same as usual when dealing with the people in the palace and avoid arousing suspicion.
I absolutely will not participate in the fight for the throne.
Regardless of who ascends the throne in the future, I will adhere to His Majesty’s arrangements!”

He had always maintained a neutral stance, devoting himself entirely to the country and never participating in the fight between the eldest prince and the second prince.

Naturally, Gu ShuBai was able to understand his bitterness and quickly said: “Father, don’t worry.
Son understands and will advise my younger brothers.”

Gu HuaiJiang said with difficulty: “This time, it might be he who was muddled.
As long as he does not do it again, this secret will never be spread…”

Yu Fu glanced at him and thought to herself that if the eldest prince did not do it again, what of it?

Marquis Gu’s Manor was at the heart of the struggle in court and truly should not concern itself with this matter.

It suddenly became noisy out in the courtyard, as a group of people surged into the main hall’s courtyard while shouting Yu Fu’s name.

Yu Fu heard this and lifted the curtain just a crack to look outside.
It turned out to be the group of imperial physicians.

Had they not gone to consult master about medicine?

She heard them repeatedly say: “Young miss Yu Fu, where are you? We wish to become your disciples.
Young miss Yu Fu, please accept us!”
