The next day, Jin Yan woke up and didn't see his brother.
One day passed, and Gu Jinhe still didn't come back.
However, news came from the palace that the third prince said something that angered Emperor Jianping and was punished by kneeling for a day. The imperial concubine went to plead for mercy, and finally the imperial concubine was punished as well.
Immediately afterwards, in the morning of the next day, several people from the Xia family, the imperial concubine's mother's family, who were officials in the court were dismissed from their official positions, and two of them even had their homes confiscated.
On the third day, several civil servants known as nobles and celebrities also had their hats removed from their heads.
Nobility and celebrities no longer exist.
Some are just numbers stained with blood that are bigger than others on the ledger.
The situation in the capital is indeed changing rapidly.
Suddenly, everyone is in danger.
Gu Yong was so busy that he never even returned home, and Jin Yan could not see his face from time to time.
In a flash, another month passed.
Just after resting, he heard a servant shouting "The eldest young master is back". Jin Yan hurriedly put on his clothes and ran to the outer courtyard, but still could not see Gu Jinhe.
"Princess, the eldest son entered the palace overnight." The steward said.
Jin Yan nodded, "What about dad, is he back yet?"
Just as he was talking, Gu Yong came back.
He took a look at Jin Yan's clothes and glared at the maids coldly, "If you dare to let her run out wearing so little, what are you doing for food?"
Chunting and Xia Chan had already come out with thick cloaks.
"Dad, I know I was wrong. Don't blame them. I just wanted to see you and my brother as soon as possible. Did you meet your brother on the road just now?" Jin Yan asked.
Gu Yong and Jin Yan returned to the main courtyard, and the eldest princess got up not long after resting.
Gu Yong glanced at his wife and said, "Jinhe and I will not have any leisure time. You and Yanyan go to stay with your mother-in-law for a few days."
The eldest princess agreed without asking anything.
Jin Yan was confused when he heard this, "What happened? Isn't it because you want to force the palace? The prince or the third prince?"
After the third prince was punished, the prince was released again.
In the past month, the prince's actions have been quite big. Even in the streets and alleys, people are discussing what the prince is virtuous and gentle after eating and drinking. The momentum is not small.
Knowing that the prince was secretly making weapons, he released the prince. What did Emperor Jianping want to do?
"You will know in a few days. Tomorrow morning, you and your mother will go to Princess Da Chang. The Dingguo Guild will send troops to guard your safety. When the matter is over, dad will pick you up personally." Gu Yong said.
Jin Yan was a little worried, "What about you and your brother? Are you in danger?"
If there is a mutiny, the city will not be safe.
Even the Prime Minister's Palace faces the risk of being breached.
After all, no matter which side wins, if they want to hold Prime Minister Gu Yong hostage, she is the most suitable hostage.
Gu Yong chuckled and comforted her in a gentle voice, "We will naturally be safe and sound. You see, your mother is not worried at all, and the hidden guards at home will always protect us."
Although Jin Yan was still worried, staying there wouldn't be of much help, so he had no choice but to obey the orders and go to the eldest princess's mansion.
On the first day when he arrived at the eldest princess's mansion, Jin Yan locked himself in the house and didn't go anywhere. He even had to eat in a hurry and spent the rest of his time designing self-defense weapons.
The current situation is not conducive to her lying down.
In order to achieve the goal of "winning by lying down", we must first make our father and brother omnipotent.
A loser like the prince can have the "golden finger" of the heroine, how can her father and brother not have helpers?
Anyway, no one stipulates that villains must fight alone!
