Old General Qi’s interest was piqued when he heard this. He looked at Gu
Qingxue and said, “You mean that the empress’ memories were erased by the Gu master in the crown prince’s hands, so she can’t remember anything clearly. In order to protect his only son, she could only obediently obey and accept the entire matter… If your guess is correct, then this crown prince is really not simple. He is actually able to anticipate so many things.”
“As a mother, her love for her son is naturally not simple. It’s just that Rong Jinghua even wanted to make use of her mother’s feelings. She’s really shameless to the point of shocking people.” Gu Qingxue lowered her eyes as she spoke, hiding the emotions that flashed past her eyes.
“Such a person, if he really becomes the new ruler in the future, it will make people shudder. If only there was a way to stop him from inheriting the throne.” Old General Qi snorted and said.
Gu Qingxue looked at Old General Qi and blinked helplessly. “Granduncle, you can only say this in the prince regent’s residence. You can’t mention it outside.”
Her granduncle’s words were not something that ordinary people would dare to say. If word got out, her granduncle would be in danger.
Old General Qi waved his hand indifferently and said, “So what if he knows? I’m not afraid of anything. Qingxue, even I would dare to say this in front of the crown prince. Moreover, the crown prince would not dare to do anything disrespectful to this old man in front of him.”
Gu Qingxue nodded and said with a smile, “Of course I believe Granduncle’s words. However, the Crown Prince might not do anything in public, but it was hard to say in private.”
Old General Qi didn’t deny it. He just frowned and snorted. “This old man really doesn’t like people like the Crown Prince. It’s not good to have too many tricks up your sleeve.”
Gu Qingxue laughed out loud when she saw the serious look on Old General Qi’s face. Then, she winked at Qin Yun.
Musical Note understood what Gu Qingxue meant. She walked forward and poured a cup of tea for the old man.”Old General Qi, don’t be angry. Please have some tea.”
Old General Qi reached out and took the teacup. Then, he drank the tea in one gulp, and his expression relaxed. “Qingxue, the poison in my eldest sister and my body has already been cured for some time. I wonder how much time we will have to spend next?”
“It should take another half a month. Granduncle, why are you suddenly asking this?” Gu Qingxue had a feeling that the old general had something to explain when he suddenly mentioned this matter.
“Don’t you know that your cousins are here?” Old General Qi said this, but there was no longing in his eyes. His eyes were still very calm.
Gu Qingxue nodded. “I knew about it before. Speaking of which, I’m still curious. Why did they not show up even though we received the news so early?”
When Old General Qi heard this, he raised his eyebrows proudly and said with a smile, “Is there a need to ask? Naturally, it’s because I’m suppressing them and forbidding them from entering the capital.”
“Did you suppress them?” Gu Qingxue’s eyes widened in surprise. She did not expect Old General Qi to be so willful.
In contrast, Old General Qi said matter-of-factly, “Yeah, isn’t that what we should do? According to their personalities, as long as they enter Jing City, who knows how many tricks they will cause. Instead of letting them act recklessly, it would be better for them to obediently stay in the relay station in the suburbs from the beginning..”
