Chapter 297: Chapter 194: Crazy, Little Sister You’ve Gone Crazy Too!_2

Gu Changge smiled and said casually,

“So… shall I help ‘Lord Jun’ sober up?”

Wang Yue narrowed his eyes with a smile and said softly, as he could no longer resist reaching out.

Originally, Gu Changge had planned to say that he could sober up using spiritual energy.

But seeing that this was the method of sobering up, he no longer declined.

Right away, he carried the wife who had approached him into the room.

…

The following day, in the early morning,

Gu Changge, with the attentive care of his wife, dressed neatly.

The two then left the grand hall and headed toward the original small courtyard in the inner court.

Upon arriving, they were somewhat surprised to see Wang Cheng already waiting there.

“Ha ha… Just taking a casual stroll with nothing else to do.”

“I just inquired about your original courtyard, brother-in-law.”

“And happened to come over and wait.”

Wang Cheng greeted them with a smile as he saw them.

“We have indeed kept Your Highness waiting; the plan was to have my wife send a message to the Prince after arrival.”

Gu Changge spoke and already pushed the gate open, gesturing for him to enter first.

Wang Cheng, without any pretense, walked into the courtyard, looking around.

The courtyard was rather plain and simple.

Nothing more than a few rooms, a stone table and several stone chairs in the yard, as well as artificial mountains and waters.

There was also a small pavilion and a fruit tree.

He used to live so simply before; why did he suddenly move to that grand hall?

The Gu Family is really odd…

“This courtyard really is not worthy of my brother-in-law’s status,” Wang Cheng remarked.

“Ha ha… This is already quite good.”

“Previously, this Young Master always lived at the foot of the Back Mountain, much smaller than this.”

“After marriage, naturally, I could not stay there, so I moved to the Inner Court.”

Gu Changge spoke as he led him toward the pavilion.

He raised his hand and activated the Isolation Array of the courtyard.

Looking straight at the Prince, he directly asked, “May I know why Your Highness has requested my presence today, is there something you wish to discuss?”

“Ha ha… It’s nothing much.”

“Mostly, I came to visit Little Sister.”

Wang Cheng tried to beat around the bush.

However, hearing his response, Gu Changge stood up, saying, “Then my wife can catch up with the Second Prince.”

Saying this, he intended to walk away immediately.

He didn’t have time to chat idly with anyone now.

If there was some intention, it was better to speak directly, agree if agreeable, and pretend nothing happened otherwise.

“Cough!”

“Don’t be hasty, brother-in-law.”

“Brother-in-law, you really are direct.”

“Since that’s the case, I’ll get straight to the point.”

“Please have a seat and let’s talk in detail.”

This abrupt movement somewhat surprised Wang Cheng, who quickly spoke to keep him there.

Wang Yue chuckled, poured tea for the two of them, and stood aside.

But she chose to stand next to her husband, not her second brother.

Just this detail made Wang Cheng think to himself: “It seems Little Sister already has her own thoughts…”

Gu Changge sipped his tea quietly, not saying a word, just silently observing him.

“Brother-in-law, you must be aware of Prince Wang Yu’s incident.”

Wang Cheng steadied his mood before speaking.

“Of course, I know. As I have already mentioned yesterday, I killed him, with my own hands.” Gu Changge nodded, his face expressionless.

“…”

“That’s not the point.”

“Who killed him doesn’t matter.”

“In any case, Yu had his doom sealed upon his arrival in Qingzhou.”

“The Crown Prince had secretly sent someone, planning to have him die in Qingzhou.”

Wang Cheng’s mouth twitched, finding his brother-in-law too candid!

“So what?” Gu Changge remained indifferent.

“Currently, more than just Wang Yu among the Princes have died.”

“Little Sister’s marriage was hastily decided by the Emperor on a whim.”

“So… I don’t want to be the next one to die inexplicably in the name of the Imperial Family.”

Wang Cheng took a deep breath, staring earnestly into his eyes.

“The Second Prince wants to rebel?”

Gu Changge raised his brows slightly, speaking with a hint of surprise.

“Cough…”

“We can’t talk recklessly about such things.”

“Rebellion is, of course, impossible.”

“The Emperor is in his prime, who would dare to rebel?”

“But… I still wish to compete for the position of the Crown Prince.”

“If I could obtain your support, brother-in-law, I am very confident!”

“In the future, when you control the Gu Family, and I control the Northern Domain Royal Family, if we join forces, wouldn’t the Northern Domain be ours?”

Wang Cheng, startled, coughed twice, and unconsciously looked up,

worried that the word ‘rebellion’ might be overheard and spread.

However, he had also figured out Gu Changge’s temperament; disliking beating around the bush, he simply voiced his own thoughts directly.

He dared not rebel against his father, the Emperor.

But contending for the position of Crown Prince was his rightful qualification!

Wang Yue had long guessed his purpose, but upon hearing this, she still looked towards her husband, curious about how he would decide.

“Not appropriate,” Gu Changge decisively shook his head.

Without a hint of hesitation.

“Does brother-in-law have any concerns?”

“In my view, your current standing in the Gu Family means you really don’t need to fear the Crown Prince.”

“As long as he is overthrown, I could smoothly ascend to the position of Crown Prince.”

“In the future, you and I…”

Wang Cheng frowned and wanted to say more, but Gu Changge interrupted him with a raised hand: “First, I, the Young Master, indeed do not fear the Crown Prince, and if there should be fear, it ought to be him fearing me!”

“Second, even if we overthrow him, His Highness, the second prince, will not be able to sit on the throne of Crown Prince.”

Hearing this, Wang Cheng was startled and asked in confusion, “Why is that?”

“Because for the next heir to the throne of the Northern Domain, I already have a candidate in mind.”

Gu Changge was ever the one to speak shockingly!

He said this with a relaxed face.

“You…”

Wang Cheng’s expression was stunned.

Disbelieving, he stared at him.

For a moment, his mind couldn’t process the enormity of what had just been said!

What do you mean, you have a candidate for the next heir to the throne?

Who are you?

You’re the Young Master Gu, not the current Emperor of the Northern Domain!

And who would you choose as the next heir to the throne?

With these thoughts, Wang Cheng suddenly looked towards the Little Sister beside him.

Little Sister was just smiling and making eye contact with him, and all of a sudden, Wang Cheng’s mind felt like it had exploded!

No way…

It couldn’t be what he was thinking, could it?

Was Gu Changge planning to push Little Sister onto the throne!?

Could that be real?

“No need to hide and hedge.”

“Yue’er is the next Empress of the Northern Domain.”

“I, the Young Master, am saying this.”

“You could tell this to the Crown Prince or the Emperor of the Northern Domain if you wish, it makes no difference.”

“I, the Young Master, do not care.”

“But actually, you and I could make a deal.”

Seeing his shocked expression with mouth agape, Gu Changge continued to speak calmly.

“You say…” Wang Cheng regained his composure, looking at him with a complex gaze, intrigued to hear what kind of deal he proposed.

“If His Highness, the second prince, is willing to exert some effort in this matter.”

“After Yue’er, I wouldn’t mind giving you the Emperor’s position of the Northern Domain.”

“Since she is already my Daoist Couple, it’s natural that she can’t stay in the Northern Domain forever.”

“Central State is where the Young Master truly belongs.”

“The Gu Family will naturally move to Central State in due time. To be honest, I don’t really care for the Northern Domain.”

Gu Changge spoke as if he were discussing an utterly expected trivial matter.

But every word he said buzzed in Wang Cheng’s head.

He was still thinking about how to compete for the Crown Prince and wanted to bring Gu Family on board to help.

Yet, this Young Master of the Gu Family was planning to root the Gu Family in Central State.

He didn’t want the Northern Domain at all.

And… he was going to appoint the next Emperor of the Northern Domain?

For a moment, Wang Cheng felt that the young man before him might be insane.

“His Highness, the second prince, should consider it carefully.”

“I, the Young Master, shall take my leave now.”

“Furthermore, regarding today’s conversation, if you wish, you may also share it with the Emperor of the Northern Domain.”

“It’s of no consequence.”

Seeing his dazed look, Gu Changge smiled, stood up, and left.

This time, Wang Cheng did not speak up to stop him.

Until he had left, Wang Cheng hadn’t snapped back to reality.

“He’s mad…”

“Little Sister, you’ve married a madman.”

Wang Cheng murmured to Wang Yue as she returned to the courtyard.

But Wang Yue simply smiled without a word.

“Do you believe him?”

Wang Cheng opened his mouth wide, incredulous.

“You’re mad too… you’re all mad.”

“I should have never come to the Gu Family…”

He could no longer stay seated, muttering to himself as he left the courtyard.

Today’s conversation, Gu Changge might not care if it got out, but he truly dared not let it out!

If his father, the Emperor, knew about it, he wasn’t sure what he could do to Gu Changge.

But as for himself… he couldn’t withstand it!

Madmen… they’re all madmen, everyone from the Gu Family is abnormal, all abnormal!

Even Little Sister.

How could she possibly believe that guy’s words…
