Meng Qing saw Chu You and Fang Mingfeng at a glance. The two young men in front of him were bruised and swollen. Their faces were filled with scars, and their robes were stained with gray footprints. Even their usually pampered knuckles were bruised.

Previously, the well-dressed young master was as pathetic as those local hooligans.

Meng Qing couldnt help but raise his eyebrows. His fox-like eyes narrowed mockingly, and he said with a faint smile, Kang w.a.n.g, Crown Prince Fang, the two of you are really in a good mood.

Chu You and Fang Mingfeng suppressed the anger in their hearts and didnt argue with Meng Qing. They asked almost at the same time,

Wheres Ronger?

Wheres Rong Rong?

Their voices overlapped as they took a few steps closer to Meng Qing.

Kang w.a.n.g, Crown Prince Fang, this case is confidential. Arent you making things difficult for me? Meng Qing smiled and said perfunctorily. He cupped his hands again. I still have official matters to attend to. Ill take my leave.

Without caring about their reactions, he got on his horse and rode away. The Embroidered Uniform Guards accompanying him also roared away.

Around the alley, only those pa.s.sersby who looked from afar and didnt dare to approach remained, guessing what the owner of the Gu Mansion had done.

Chu You and Fang Mingfeng, who stayed at the entrance of the Gu residence, looked at each other and didnt speak for a long time.

After being interrupted by Meng Qing just now, the twos original anger subsided. Their expressions froze on the spot for a moment.

Fang Mingfeng wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with the back of his hand. After calming down, he became the n.o.ble and elegant heir of the British Monarchy again.

He restrained himself and lowered his voice. Whats going on with the Gu family?

Fang Mingfeng has no job now. He was detained by his father, the British Duke, all day long, and his information was limited. He didnt know what was going on with the Gu family either. He only heard that the second branch of the Gu family was involved in the Yu familys case, so he rushed over. He originally wanted to ask the Embroidered Uniform Guards and see if there was a chance to persuade them to let him in to see Gu Yunrong.

He didnt expect to meet Kang w.a.n.g Chu You as soon as he came here.

Chu You didnt say a word. He slowly turned his gaze to the Gu Mansion, and his brows furrowed.

Because of the fight just now, his hair was a little askew, and his hair was a little loose. When the wind blew, his hair became even more messy, making his expression even darker.

A cold and proud expression flashed across Fang Mingfengs face. He suppressed his dissatisfaction with Chu You and said patiently, Were in a difficult situation now. Lets shake hands and make peace for the time being. Perhaps you and I can work together and find a way.

What do you think?

Fang Mingfengs tone was very calm, but only he knew how difficult it was for him to say this.

He clenched his fists by his sides and tried hard to control himself from swinging his fists at Chu Yous face.

Chu You smiled coldly. He neither agreed nor disagreed.

The dark clouds in the sky were even thicker and heavier. Even the breeze that came toward them was damp.

After a while, Chu You finally spoke. He recounted what he had heard in the palace coldly.

Fang Mingfengs sharp gaze was fixed on Chu Yous face. As Chu You spoke, his pupils gradually constricted, and his face turned ashen.

With that, the two of them fell silent.

At dusk, the surroundings were already dark yellow. The luxuriant branches and leaves above the alley cast a flickering shadow on their bruised faces, making their expressions a little deeper and more complicated.

A way? Chu You tidied his clothes that had been messed up just now and brushed off the dust on his body. He said mockingly, Fang Mingfeng, what other way do you have? If the Gu family is involved in rebellion, according to the law, Ronger will also be implicated

Fang Mingfeng has nothing except the t.i.tle of heir of the British Duke. Without the support of the British Duke, what can he do?!

Moreover, Ronger is my woman. Other men dont have to worry about my woman!

Chu You looked at Fang Mingfeng with hostility. His description exuded the domineering aura of a proud son of heaven. He said impatiently, I dont have time to waste on you. You should mind your own business!

He had to get the Emperor to release Gu Yunrong before the Gu family was convicted. The problem was what he had to pay to persuade the Emperor to make this deal.

Wait a minute!

Chu You thought of something, and his eyes lit up. The answer was obvious.

There was one thing that could definitely move his brother

Li Chu.

Chu You didnt want to waste any more time. He quickly got on his horse and was about to leave when Fang Mingfeng grabbed his reins..
