Chapter 198 New Clues
Ye Ying opened her eyes wide in surprise: "How is this possible? The general never participates in the factional disputes between the DPRK and China. Besides, he has never been hypocritical with the deposed prince. How could..."

Gu Changgeng's eyes were gloomy, and he said: "Maybe Dad knows something, some people don't want him to tell what he knows, or they don't want him to take it back to the capital city!"

It took Yeying a while to realize the meaning of Gu Changgeng's words, and hurriedly asked: "Did the general's letter say where Sun Jiayu is now?"

"No, but based on the traces left at that time, Uncle Duan infers that Sun Jiayu may have been murdered."

Yeying looked disappointed, clenched his fists and thumped the table in resentment, gritted his teeth and said, "It's hard to find another clue, but there is no trace!"

Gu Changgeng said: "That's not the case, this is a new clue, we can start to investigate from the prince's dismissal, maybe we can find some clues."

Ye Ying frowned, "After the crown prince was deposed, he was given a glass of poisoned wine, and the whole house was executed. Later, the emperor decreed that it should not be mentioned again, and all the files in the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple were destroyed. There is no way to solve this matter." checked."

Gu Changgeng thought for a moment, "Do you still remember why the crown prince was deposed?"

Ye Ying replied: "As we all know, the prince colluded with the king of Xining to plot a rebellion, but was informed by a guard next to the prince, the most powerful assistant at the time, that the guard stole the letters between the prince and the king of Xining at the risk of death, and was seriously injured. Stop the emperor's carriage leaving the palace, and report the matter to the emperor."

Gu Changgeng asked: "Where is this guard now?"

"The guard was seriously injured and almost died. After waking up, the emperor thought of his loyalty and let him serve as the deputy capital commander of the Imperial Forest Army. Now, after a few years, he has become the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Jiang Yunting."

"The crown prince was deposed, Jiang Yunting, Sun Jiayu...the only one we can attack now is this Jiang Yunting."

Gu Changgeng's eyes drooped slightly, his face was cloudy and cloudy, and Ye Ying couldn't guess his thoughts.

"Little General, do you want to..."

Gu Changgeng didn't answer, but took out the blank letterhead and wrote a letter with a pen.

After about half a cup of tea, Gu Changgeng stopped writing, dried the ink on the letter, folded it and put it in the envelope.

Gu Changgeng handed the letter to Ye Ying and said, "Please send this letter to Uncle Duan."

"Yes, your subordinates obey!"

After Ye Ying received the letter and put it away, she hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking: "Little General, what do you want to do next?"

Gu Changgeng remained silent for a long time, and said, "I don't plan to go to the frontier for the time being, I want to stay in the capital and see if I can find any clues from Jiang Yunting."

Ye Ying wanted to ask Gu Changgeng again, but he said: "You go first, the prime minister's residence is heavily guarded, if you stay for a long time, be careful not to be discovered."

Ye Ying nodded, bowed her hands and bowed, "This subordinate will leave."

Ye Ying's figure disappeared into the darkness, and Gu Changgeng stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back all night.

……

Early the next morning.

Lin Langtian's bedroom.

"Master Xiang, are you up?"

Lin Lang just got up and replied: "Get up, what's the matter?"

Outside the door Fu Guanjia said: "It was Gu Changgeng who came to ask for an interview, and said that he only needs to delay the Prime Minister for a while, so that the Prime Minister must definitely see him."

Lin Langtian thought for a while, and said, "Let Chang Geng come in."

"Yes, Mr. Xiang."

After a while, Steward Fu opened the door and made a gesture of invitation to Gu Changgeng, "Master Xiang invites you in."

When Gu Changgeng walked into the house, Lin Langtian had just changed into his court clothes. When he saw him coming in, he smiled warmly, waved to him, and said, "Chang Geng is here, please sit down. If we have something to do, let's sit down and talk about it."

Gu Changgeng nodded and sat down. Lin Langtian spoke first, "Chang Geng, I'm sorry, Uncle Lin is too busy these days. I heard from Butler Fu that you have come to see me several times, but you have never been able to find time to see me. you."

"Uncle Lin is busy with affairs, Chang Geng understands."

Lin Langtian said: "Then you came here today because you want to tell Uncle Lin about your going to the frontier to join the army? Uncle Lin thinks that you need to think carefully before making a decision. After all, the frontier is poor. If you go... "

Gu Changgeng interrupted Lin Langtian's words: "Uncle Lin, Chang Geng has thought about it, I listen to you, stay in the capital city for the time being, and go to the Imperial Forest Army to practice first."

Lin Langtian was startled.

Gu Changgeng's words were unexpected. He thought that it would take a lot of talking to make Gu Changgeng change his decision, but now he easily agreed not to go to the border.

After a while, Lin Lang came back to his senses. He patted Gu Changgeng's shoulder in relief, and said, "It's best for you to figure it out. You stay in the capital, and Uncle Lin can continue to take care of you. He is also very happy."

"Thank you, Uncle Lin."

"Well, since you are going to train in the Royal Forest Army, it's not good for Uncle Lin to say hello before letting you go. You go to the recruiting office to sign up. If you are too hard in the army and you can't bear it, then tell Uncle Lin , I will find another easy official position for you."

Gu Changgeng nodded, "To waste Uncle Lin's time, nothing else, Chang Geng stepped back first."

"I wanted to keep you for breakfast, but Uncle Lin is still in a hurry to enter the palace. Let's have dinner with you another day. You go back first. If you need anything, remember to find Uncle Lin."

"it is good."

Looking at Gu Changgeng's back, Lin Langtian was puzzled.

Gu Changgeng's temperament is the same as Gu Yun's, and he will never waver in his decision easily. What made him change his mind and stay?
After thinking about it, Lin Langtian couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

A little brat can't ruin his big business.

……

Hedge garden.

"Master, Miss San is here, waiting for you in your study."

Gu Changgeng nodded: "Understood."

Gu Changgeng walked straight to the study room, opened the door, Lin Qingqian sat on the soft bed thoughtfully, when she heard the movement, she immediately turned her head to look over, saw that it was Gu Changgeng, smiled and said: "Brother Changgeng, you go Did you see your father back?"

Gu Changgeng closed the door to cut off the cold wind blowing in, and replied unhurriedly: "Yes."

Lin Qingqian poured a cup of hot tea for Gu Changgeng, "Brother Changgeng, drink a cup of hot tea to warm up first."

After Gu Changgeng took the teacup and took a sip, Lin Qingqian asked tentatively: "Brother Changgeng is here, have you seen your father?"

"seen."

"What did father say? Did he agree with you to go to the frontier?"

Gu Changgeng put down his teacup, and said in a low voice, "I will stay in the capital for the time being, and not go to the border."

"Don't go to the frontier? Stay in the capital city? But because your father doesn't agree?"

"No, I changed my mind."

"You changed your mind yourself?!"

Lin Qingqian's eyes widened in shock, she was stunned for a moment, and then asked anxiously: "Brother Chang Geng, why did you suddenly decide not to go to the border?"

Gu Changgeng stared at Lin Qingqian for a while, narrowed his deep eyes, and asked without answering, "You don't want me to stay in the capital city?"
