"The palace envoy will bring back a letter prepared in advance, and I will replace the person mentioned in that letter with me."
Gu Yilan smiled slightly: "Do you believe I can do it?"
Mu Yunhan stiffened her face and said nothing. She believed it, she believed it very much.
Gu Yilan is really powerful. He basically guessed all the arrangements made by Gu Fenglin.
Although Gu Fenglin didn't tell her in advance, this was probably the purpose of leaving the sunflowers there.
Based on the emperor's attitude towards the Gu family, he might find it a bit strange to let Gu Yilan have full authority to handle this matter, but he might not agree with it.
By then, they will be really passive.
"If I become the person solely responsible for handling this case, you will lose more initiative."
"So why don't you and I cooperate? I only want what I need, and the rest can proceed as normal according to your wishes. I won't interfere."
Gu Yilan looked at Mu Yunhan seriously: "I'm doing this all for your sake. Think about it carefully, is this true?"
Mu Yunhan weighed the pros and cons and said in a deep voice, "Are you cooperating with the Empress Dowager?"
Gu Yilan was noncommittal and said calmly: "I know what I'm doing. I'll give you half a cup of tea to think about it."
He stopped talking and looked at her quietly without blinking.
Mu Yunhan felt very uncomfortable when he saw him, as if there were countless little bugs crawling on his body.
She bravely met his gaze: "How do you plan to interrogate him?"
Gu Yilan said casually: "This is not your concern anymore. You only need to agree or refuse."
Mu Yunhan wanted to scold her, but finally endured it: "But, how can I prevent the subsequent interrogators and the people in the palace from knowing that we asked in advance?"
In fact, this is not a problem, she is just struggling pointlessly.
Gu Yilan looked at her like she was an idiot and moved her thin lips slightly: "It's time."
"I promise you." Mu Yunhan felt as if all his strength had been taken away from him, and he softened listlessly.
"Then I'll trouble you to make arrangements." Gu Yilan bowed deeply to her, her eyes as dark as the abyss.
Mu Yunhan stood up expressionlessly and walked to the dungeon.
She didn't care about Gu Yilan, nor did she look back.
Because she knew that Gu Yilan was following her. Of course, she didn't know whether he was lying on the wall like a gecko, or whether he was in the sky or on the earth.
Late night snacks were delivered to the kitchen.
Mu Yunhan went in with Xiaomi and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, everyone, let's go eat. I have a few words to ask them."
The guards happily left to eat and drink, while Elder Wu sat still.
Mu Yunhan had no intention of letting him out, so he walked over to him and sat down.
Elder Wu was a little surprised: "What's wrong?"
Mu Yunhan shook his head, his face looking tired.
Gu Yilan appeared like a ghost, stood in front of the cage and looked at them quietly: "Please stay away."
Elder Wu's eyes widened in surprise: "He..."
"I'll explain to you later." Mu Yunhan looked at Gu Yilan: "I won't agree to it. What if you kill someone?"
Gu Yilan smiled: "If I want to kill them, it's just a snap of my fingers. Why is there such a need?"
Elder Wu looked at him quietly, showing no intention of getting out of the way.
Gu Yilan pursed her lips slightly and looked at Elder Wu.
Finally, he sighed helplessly: "Mu Yunhan, just go out."
