Died In Infancy! My Wife Is Actually A Villain

Chapter 245 Let My Cousin Go!

Prince Zhuang's Mansion.

A guard ran in quickly, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Yun wants to see you!"

Gu Chen narrowed his eyes, with a trace of confusion in his eyes.

Why is this woman here again? !

Although he was confused as to why Nangong Yue came, Gu Chen still looked at the guard and ordered: "Let her in."

"yes."

Not long after the doorman left, Nangong Yue appeared at the door and walked towards the house.

After the other party entered the room, Gu Chen turned to look at her and said bluntly: "Tell me, what are you doing at Prince Zhuang's Mansion?"

Nangong Yue understood Gu Chen's character and his attitude toward outsiders, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

Immediately, she raised her head and stared at Gu Chen above, and said with a smile: "I have some news to tell the prince."

"what news?"

Nangong Yue said: "My lord, do you still remember that Prince Qi came to visit Prince Zhuang's Mansion a few days ago?"

"Um."

Gu Chen nodded.

Nangong Yue smiled slightly and asked again: "Does the prince know why King Qi had to ask Princess Qi to bring the slaves in?!"

Gu Chen frowned and then said: "I am not in the mood to guess riddles here, you can just tell me."

Nangong Yue said: "Okay. But if I tell the prince this news, I hope the prince can let my cousin go."

Although Nangong Qin was sent to the Ministry of Punishments to be detained for so long, Nangong Yue knew that the other party did not execute him, but only detained him.

Gu Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me first."

Seeing that Gu Chen did not agree directly, Nangong Yue hesitated for a moment and said softly: "My cousin Nangong Zhu did not live a good life in Prince Qi's Mansion. She has been tortured by Prince Gu Jiang of Qi. If she disobeys even a little bit, she may be punished. He beat and scolded me. The last time the King of Qi brought my cousin to visit Prince Zhuang’s Mansion, it was because the King of Qi was afraid that the prince would give birth to a baby boy and wanted to kill him completely. In fact, all the slaves behind my cousin were sent by the King of Qi. Give her the killer. Once they enter the inner courtyard, they will find ways to assassinate the prince's newborn baby boy. Even if they are caught in the end, King Qi will completely ignore the responsibility and blame it all on those slaves. On the body."

Gu Chen smiled and couldn't help but ask: "Are you trying to sow discord between me and Prince Qi's house? These remarks are a bit vulgar."

Gu Chen believed what Nangong Yue said.

But as the princess of Prince Yun's Mansion, she was inciting a relationship between him and Prince Qi at this time, which made Gu Chen have to be more suspicious.

Nangong Yue said: "If Prince Zhuang thinks I'm lying, you don't have to believe it. I came here today just to remind the prince, hoping that the prince can be wary of King Qi. As for my cousin... If the prince is willing to let go, My siblings will naturally be happy if he comes out, but if they don’t want to, they won’t dare to force him.”

Gu Chen looked at Nangong Yue seriously for a few seconds. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

Nangong Yue said: "No more."

Gu Chen said: "I know this matter, and I have plans in my mind as to what to do. If there is nothing else, Princess Yun can go back."

Nangong Yue immediately replied: "I also want to see Princess Zhuang in the inner courtyard, and I would like to ask the prince for permission."

Gu Chen said: "Let's wait for another day! My princess has gone to bed just now, so it may not be convenient to entertain Princess Yun."

Nangong Yue was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Okay, then my brothers and sisters won't disturb me too much here."

She really couldn't deduce whether Princess Zhuang slept or not.

But the other party rejected her so decisively just now, obviously unwilling to let her in.

King Gu Zhuang is wary of himself!

Thinking of this, Nangong Yue felt a little angry, feeling that Gu Chen was too wary of her.

And just now, the reason why I wanted to go in and take a look at Prince Zhuang's Mansion was just to see the children and had no other ideas.

And what I just reported to the other party, my starting point was completely good.

Although he hoped that the other party would let his cousin go, he also reminded Gu Chen to be careful about King Qi.

As a result, the other party actually suspected that she had bad intentions and was deliberately trying to sow discord between the two families.

After all, they were also people who had contact with each other in Huzhou. When had I ever had such careful thoughts?

The look in Gu Chen's eyes just now was as if he was guarding her against a thief.

After Nangong Yue left, Gu Chen sat on the chair, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

He was wary of Gu Jiang, but he never thought of taking action against him.

Because Gu Chen doesn't like him at all. And killing him would be very troublesome.

After all, no matter how little attention the other party takes, his identity is still a prince and he is the bloodline of his father.

Therefore, if Gu Chen knew that the other party had bad intentions, he still did not take action against him.

But sometimes this is the case. If you don't show some strength to the other party, the other party will think that he is a soft persimmon who can be manipulated at will.

The current King of Qi, Gu Jiang, is like this.

Maybe the other person, as the royal brother, was being overshadowed by his younger brother, which seemed very uncomfortable, so he couldn't help but have other thoughts.

But the other party actually had this idea, and Gu Chen had to contain it to avoid harming his relatives.

....

In the afternoon, Gu Chen drove to the Criminal Department.

The light in the prison cell of the Criminal Department was very dim, the ground was quite damp, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood and putrefaction, which was a bit pungent.

Under the leadership of the jailer, Gu Chen came to the door of a cell.

The floor in the cell was covered with dry straw, and a man with messy long hair sat against the corner of the wall. He was wearing a gray prison uniform, and his hands and feet were bound by long chains. His whole body seemed to be numb, without any movement.

The man was none other than Nangong Qian's son, Nangong Qin.

The jailer stopped and bowed respectfully, "Sir, the person you are looking for is right here."

Gu Chen said: "Open the door for me."

"yes."

The jailer immediately found the key to the cell, and with a slight click, he unlocked the iron lock on the door.

Gu Chen stepped into the cell and glanced at the man in the cell calmly.

Nangong Qin also noticed Gu Chen. He raised his eyelids and then pulled them back without any change in expression on his face.

Seeing that the other party didn't respond, Gu Chen stopped and asked, "How are you living in this cell?"

Nangong Qin looked at Gu Chen calmly and said coldly: "It's not bad. Your Highness, Prince Zhuang, why do you have time to come here to see me, a prisoner, today?"

Gu Chen said: "I want to talk to you."

Nangong Qin's eyes were a little surprised, but he quickly calmed down and said in confusion: "The prince and I probably have nothing to talk about. If you want to put me to death, the prince can just do it."
