Lan Shule hugged her and took a letter placed on the edge of the low table.
"Luo Qing just sent a secret report. Do you want to know what is written in it?"
Gu Ruojiao thought for a while: "Is it related to me?"
"Yes." He gave her an appreciative look, opened the letter and read the contents to her.
The letter is written in Dongluo Chinese script.
The content is related to her, and it involves not only the fourth prince, but also the Kingdom of Chu.
It turned out that the fourth brother from Lanshule had other ideas after seeing Xia Lie's assassination attempt failed.
He probably believed those rumors, but he didn't think Lan Shule would really marry Gu Ruojiao as his concubine.
He just wanted to use this to win over the Chu State so that he could secure the throne.
The fourth prince wanted to destroy Lan Shule's plan.
He sent a letter to the emperor of Chu through a spy, saying that Lan Shule's behavior was just to use Gu Ruojiao as a pawn to confuse the Chu state.
In the letter, he listed various cruel acts and patricide in Lanshule. Bayi Chinese website
He also said that he was ambitious. To believe him was to seek the skin of a tiger.
Afterwards, he boasted about Haikou and promised to marry Gu Ruojiao as the Queen of Dongluo Kingdom after he ascended the throne, and also cut off three cities as a betrothal gift.
The Chu State was even more shameless. They pretended that Gu Ruojiao was important, promised to help the fourth prince ascend the throne, and killed Lan Shule.
In fact, they just want to make the murky waters of Dongluo Kingdom even more muddy.
If the fourth prince can ascend the throne and fulfill the promise of three cities as betrothal gifts, Chu will not lose.
It doesn't matter if it fails, dogs bite dogs and consume each other, so that Chu can gather its strength to counterattack.
The letter is not long, but if you think about its meaning carefully, you can find out how heartfelt these people are who are playing tricks.
In the eyes of these people, the struggle for imperial power is like a fight on a chessboard, and the people, even the soldiers, or the people around them are the Othello chess pieces they hold in their hands to win or lose.
But I never thought about the horror of war and the family and friends of these chess pieces.
But what Gu Ruojiao noticed was another point.
"Three cities?"
Previously, Lan Shule asked Chu State to give her three cities in exchange for her.
Chu's reply was to ask Gu Ruojiao to die.
Now the fourth prince took the initiative to offer three cities as a betrothal gift.
The coincidence in this simply makes people have to guess.
Lan Shule also confirmed Gu Ruojiao's idea: "There are people from him in the court."
Anyone who knows that Lan Shule traded Gu Ruojiao for three cities has a high official position.
"Do you know who it is?"
He said "Hmm" casually and curled his fingers into her long hair to play with it.
For some reason, Gu Ruojiao suddenly thought of the ministers who advised him to have a wife and a concubine a few days ago.
I felt the hand playing with my hair pause for a moment.
After a moment, the man looked at her with a smile: "Jiaojiao cares a lot?"
"What?" She hadn't reacted yet.
Lan Shule picked her up and walked to a cabinet in the back room, and took out a thick booklet from it.
The booklet had portraits of girls from each family and their family backgrounds, including fat and thin.
He deliberately spread it out in front of her and asked her who she should choose to be the queen.
When Gu Ruojiao heard this, she felt a little annoyed and said deliberately: "Your Majesty is at the age of a wolf and a tiger. How can I satisfy you with three or two concubines? Wen Zhu thinks it's okay to have them all!"
The words sounded sour when she heard them, but she didn't know it and puffed her cheeks angrily.
Those lips can almost hang an oil can.
Lan Shule, on the other hand, really considered her suggestion seriously.
"The harem is deserted. This is a very good suggestion from the little princess."
When Gu Ruojiao heard this, she was so angry that she stopped hugging him.
