After the court session, Gu Chengrui greeted everyone goodbye and then ran away happily.

King An looked at him, shook his head, and laughed. “This kid is already of age, but he still has the temperament of a child.”

“It’s rare for someone to not care about fame and fortune.” King Xian nodded.

Honestly, he did not have any memorable impressions of Gu Chengrui. But, Gu Chengrui’s words today made him admire him a little more.

He was clear-headed, not arrogant, and quite smart.

After Gu Chengrui returned home, he told Zhou Ying about how Prime Minister Su had made things difficult for him in court and the outcome. “Babe, I’m finally free!”

Zhou Ying was surprised when she heard this, as she knew the Emperor had ordered them to stay in the capital to use them.

She didn’t expect that he would protect them. Although his protection wasn’t out of pure intention, it saved them a lot of trouble for the time being.

Gu Chengrui added, “Let’s go to the manor. After we’re done here, we’ll go back to our hometown and reopen our restaurant there.”

“Sure.

“Oh, right, we also have to plant chili and cumin here, especially cumin. Otherwise, there would not be enough for when our restaurants open.”

“No problem; we will clear a piece of land and plant those.”

The two of them continued discussing their plans, and it was determined that Gu Chengrui would be in charge of running back and forth while Zhou Ying dealt with the issues at the residence as quickly as possible. They would only go to the manor together when they finished.

Conversely, Prime Minister Su’s expression did not look so good. He never thought that Gu Chengrui, who was usually inconspicuous and had no sense of existence, would be so great at scheming.

Gu Chengrui’s two steps forward and one step backward had placed him in a position where he could not advance or retreat.

He had vastly underestimated Gu Chengrui.

Right, how could a person whom King Rui took a fancy to and protected be an ordinary person?

“Father, what’s wrong? Did things not go well today?” Seventh Su walked in and asked.

“Yes, we underestimated the enemy. Gu Chengrui is much more cunning than we thought.” Prime Minister Su replied.

“Oh, what happened?” Seventh Su asked in confusion.

Gu Chengrui had some talent and skills, but in terms of politics, he couldn’t compete with his father, who had spent half his life at the imperial court.

Prime Minister Su didn’t hide anything from him and told him what had happened in the imperial court.

Seventh Su replied thoughtfully, “I feel that the Emperor didn’t completely believe the Empress’s result. Or rather, he did not believe it at all. Otherwise, he would not have let Gu Chengrui off so calmly.”

Prime Minister Su nodded and said solemnly, “The Emperor is not a simple man, and he naturally won’t believe everything. As long as he can’t get hold of any material evidence, we’re fine.

“So, we have to speed up. Otherwise, I’m afraid…”

King Hui was in a dire state, as much of his dirty laundry had been exposed recently. The Emperor had probably given him up.

Unless they forced him to abdicate, it was impossible for King Hui to ascend the throne.

As for the sterilization incident, the Emperor was definitely holding a grudge inwardly. King Kang wasn’t so safe either.

On the other hand, King Rui’s military achievements over the years were plentiful. Promoting sweet potatoes to the masses was also a merit worth praising for a thousand years or more.

The key was that there was no negative news surrounding him.

As for the Seventh Prince, to be honest, he was still too inexperienced. Without five or six years, he couldn’t achieve anything.

Therefore, their biggest enemy was King Rui. This was also the reason why he suddenly attacked Gu Chengrui in court.

However…

“Father, are you saying that the Emperor is likely to be biased toward King Rui?” Seventh Su asked in disbelief.

However, he shook his head and said, “There’s no way. Back then, in order to suppress the Zhou Family, the Emperor framed them many times.. How can King Rui not hate him?”
