Oh my god, can you play like this?

Chapter 125 It seems that many things have changed since Gu Lanzhi came back

When Gu Shurui heard Gu Lanzhi's question, he lowered his head, "Brother, I'm not smart, but I'm not stupid either, okay?

The Fifth Prince has broken off his engagement with you, so he has lost your support and is now at a disadvantage in the fight for the throne.

I am your younger brother. Although I do not have your position in the court, my advantage is that I can influence your choice privately!

If the Fifth Prince married me and became your brother-in-law, you would definitely be more inclined towards him, and you wouldn't stand against him in the fight for the throne!"

Gu Lanzhi raised his eyebrows. "Oh? You've made progress. You know how to use your brain now."

Gu Shurui glared at Gu Lanzhi, grabbed Gu Lanzhi's arm, and said anxiously: "None of this is important now, help me think of a way to avoid going out with the Fifth Prince."

Gu Lanzhi said disapprovingly: "What's there to worry about? When the Fifth Prince comes, you can go out and tell him to deal with all the women who have relationships with him first before looking for you. Isn't that enough?

"Hey? By the way, Miss Lan challenged you in front of so many people yesterday. Did you know about the incident between the Fifth Prince and Miss Lan?"

"I heard some rumors, but the information was vague, so I didn't pay much attention to it."

Gu Lanzhi rolled his eyes at Gu Shurui and said, "Miss Lan is a girl, how could she be able to travel with the Fifth Prince as often as you do?

So you have to remember that whenever there is this kind of vague news about a man and a woman’s relationship, it means that there is a high probability that these two people have an unknown connection.”

After saying that, Gu Lanzhi looked at Gu Shurui's expression and said, "You don't mind at all that the Fifth Prince has an affair with someone else?"

Hearing Gu Lanzhi's question, Gu Shurui looked at Gu Lanzhi lying on the rocking chair blankly.

"Is there anything to mind? If the Fifth Prince really likes her, he can bring her into the palace as a concubine."

"Uh..." Gu Lanzhi was speechless.

He still couldn't quite accept the ancient idea of ​​having three wives and four concubines.

What seemed normal to Gu Shurui was unacceptable to Gu Lanzhi.

But people are so strange. If Gu Lanzhi were to look at it from the husband's perspective, he would be very willing to have more partners.

But because of the strange structure of this body, Gu Lanzhi was destined to stand in the position of the wife, and Gu Lanzhi could not accept that her husband had other people to accompany him.

Everyone is selfish, and Gu Lanzhi does not deny at all that he is selfish.

Originally, when he was thinking about recruiting a son-in-law, he wanted to recruit more people, but now it seems that it is just his dream after all.

When talking about Miss Lan, Gu Lanzhi looked at Mo Er who was standing aside, "Any news about Miss Lan?"

Gu Lanzhi slapped Miss Lan in the face in front of so many people yesterday, and also exposed the affair between Miss Lan and the Fifth Prince. I guess Miss Lan will not end up well.

"I heard that the cabinet scholar has issued an order in the palace, asking Miss Lan to pack her luggage and return to her hometown as soon as possible. Miss Lan is not allowed to return to the capital in the future."

Gu Lanzhi nodded, understanding the cabinet scholar's approach.

Miss Lan has lost her reputation because of what happened in the palace. If she stays in Kyoto, except for the Fifth Prince who is willing to give her a position as a concubine, no other family would be willing to let Miss Lan in.

But yesterday in the palace, the fifth prince didn't say a word for Miss Lan. I guess the cabinet scholar also knows this.

Besides, Miss Lan is the legitimate daughter of the family after all. Although the Fifth Prince is a prince, a concubine is still a concubine.

It would be better to leave Kyoto and find a wife from a small family.

This will also save the face of the Cabinet Academy, and letting Miss Lan leave is the best option.

"Ah? Gone?" Gu Shurui looked at Mo Er in surprise.

Gu Lanzhi touched his forehead speechlessly. His brother's brain was intermittent. When it worked well, he reacted quickly, but when it didn't work well, it was really a waste of time.

"Brother, you need to use your brain more, otherwise it will get rusty easily."

Gu Shurui saw that his brother was insulting him again. He puffed his cheeks and said unhappily, "Why don't you just say that I'm stupid?"

Gu Lanzhi smiled and said, "I'm not that stupid, I just need to use my brain more so that I can develop my wisdom better."

"I'm at home now. I don't want to use my brain when you're here."

Although Gu Lanzhi enjoyed Gu Shurui's dependence on him, in order for him to be able to stand on his own in the future, Gu Lanzhi still had to talk to Gu Shurui.

In the next five minutes, Gu Lanzhi explained to Gu Shurui the consequences if he was not in the house and Gu Shurui did not think more.

At first, Gu Shurui resisted and refused to accept Gu Lanzhi's words about leaving home, but when he heard Gu Lanzhi say that he would get married sooner or later, Gu Shurui fell silent.

That's right, no matter how much he doesn't want his brother to leave, he has to get married given his situation.

The two brothers kept chatting until a servant came to report that the fifth prince was waiting at the gate of the mansion. Only then did Gu Shurui reluctantly go to the gate.

Mo Yi replaced Gu Lanzhi's cup of hot tea and said with a smile, "The Fourth Young Master has always been kept in the mansion and has never faced anything outside the mansion, so he habitually relies on you."

"Yes! But that won't work, they have to be able to stand on their own.

Although Kyoto didn't have to face the bloodshed on the battlefield, the invisible undercurrents killed people invisibly. Shu Rui's brain, which sometimes worked well and sometimes didn't, would have been played to death."

"You are here, just keep an eye on him."

Gu Lanzhi knew that Mo Yi was comforting him, but he just smiled and didn't say anything.

There is about to be a big storm in Kyoto City. No one can be sure who will be swept up by the storm. Gu Lanzhi always feels a little uneasy in his heart.

Although no one knew what Gu Shurui said to the Fifth Prince, the Fifth Prince left anyway. Before leaving, he looked at Gu Shurui hesitantly several times.

Gu Shurui also changed his previous attitude of clinging to the Fifth Prince, and his attitude towards the Fifth Prince became much stiffer.

After the Fifth Prince lowered the curtain, his hesitant expression immediately turned into a sinister one, and he clenched his fists tightly.

After he was some distance away from the Marquis's Mansion, he pounded the small table in front of him heavily.

Just as his adviser said, Gu Shurui might be difficult to control.

Judging from Gu Shurui's reaction when Gu Lanzhi broke off the engagement yesterday and what he said to the emperor, the Fifth Prince felt that things might be getting worse.

Don’t let it end up like what his father said, where he doesn’t get either of them.

Thinking of this, the Fifth Prince rubbed his temples with a headache, as if many things had changed since Gu Lanzhi came back.
