Shocked! The salty concubine was spoiled by the cold prince

Chapter 194 The Prince is Dead

The rebellion suddenly appeared like a thunderclap.

Pei Yunqing teamed up with the favorite concubine to hold the emperor hostage, and the prince who had left had no choice but to turn back.

The prince knew that once he left and his father issued the abdication decree, he would never be able to come back.

His throne must be seized in this crisis.

The prince summoned his subordinates and started fighting with Pei Yunqing.

Pei Xu naturally also got the news, and he was about to return from Jinzhou City.

Gu Jiaorong and the child could not withstand the long journey, but he was worried about leaving them behind.

"Your Highness, please go ahead. The children and I will walk slowly."

Gu Jiaorong said this, but the war had already started and chaos would break out everywhere. How could Pei Xu be at ease?

But this is the best choice. He must go back in time, otherwise he will be making things difficult for others.

Pei Xu had no choice but to go back, so he had to leave the guards behind and take Fu'an back to the capital to clean up this farce.

At the beginning, he didn't think that Pei Yunqing would act so quickly.

He just thought that if Pei Yunqing's deeds were exposed, he would continue to attract people's attention, and Pei Yunqing would not have time to attack Gu Jiaorong.

Although until now, he still couldn't understand why Pei Yunqing had to kill Gu Jiaorong.

After Gu Jiaorong sent Pei Xu away, she looked at the two sleeping children in the cradle and sighed quietly.

Before she knew it, she had reached this point.

“I really hope everything goes smoothly from now on.”

Gu Jiaorong touched the well-behaved children and thought so.

To bring the two children back to the capital, they naturally need to be extra careful and not make any mistakes.

Newborn babies are very fragile and cannot withstand long journeys. If any accident happens again, the child will suffer even if Chu Fenghua is with him.

"Auntie, the servants have packed their luggage, shall we set off?"

Shaoyao asked cautiously. From her perspective, they should set off as early as possible to avoid any complications, but she was not sure whether the concubines and the young masters could bear it.

Gu Jiaorong also knew that there was no need to drag it out, so she nodded.

"lets go."

She couldn't hold both children, so she held her daughter and gave her son to Shaoyaobao.

Gu Jiaorong knew that if any problems really arose, Shaoyao would definitely protect the young master well, after all, he was the eldest son.

But it’s different for her daughter. With a boy in front of her, perhaps no one will care so much about her daughter.

Gu Jiaorong was not confident in leaving her daughter to anyone else, so she wanted to take care of her herself.

Everyone can understand her feelings.

People have natural biases and it is impossible to treat everyone equally. Moreover, the young master has certain inheritance rights, and the daughter will be married off after she grows up.

Of course, Gu Jiaorong also loves her son, but she knows that her son will be loved by more people, and her daughter needs her more.

They brought a lot of things when they came to Jinzhou City, and naturally loaded several carriages when they left. The only difference was that Pei Xu was no longer by Gu Jiaorong's side.

Although the carriage was bumpy on the road, it was much more comfortable than Pei Xu's galloping horse. Gu Jiaorong did not feel any obvious discomfort.

However, she would occasionally spare some time to worry about Pei Xu.

Gu Jiaorong didn’t know how many days she had been gone. Although the two children were well-behaved and sensible, babies required a lot of energy to take care of.

"Auntie, the prince is dead. We must hurry back as soon as possible."

After receiving the news, Shaoyao immediately told Gu Jiaorong. Even she understood that this was definitely not a simple matter.

The death of the prince was a great surprise to Gu Jiaorong. In the original book, the prince did not die so soon.

"Tell me in detail, how did the prince die?"

Gu Jiaorong frowned, she found that the world had become completely different.

The one who caused all this might be another time traveler, Pei Yunqing.

Gu Jiaorong knew that his methods were strange, and the prince died suddenly, but the news was leaked so quickly, it must be because he could not keep it secret.

"The messenger said that the Crown Prince suddenly combusted during a confrontation with the Fifth Prince. Now the people of the capital are saying that the Crown Prince's spontaneous combustion was a punishment from heaven, and that the Fifth Prince is the one destined by heaven."

Gu Jiaorong didn't believe in destiny. Regarding the prince's spontaneous combustion, she could only think of one possibility, which was that Pei Yunqing had used some means to achieve the wick effect.

This so-called destiny is nothing but public opinion spread by him deliberately.

If we really have to say that destiny is the right person, that person should be Pei Xu, after all, Pei Xu is the male protagonist in the book.

"The capital is in chaos right now, and I'm afraid other places will soon be in chaos too. We must return to reunite with the prince as soon as possible."

Shaoyao sighed. They were already traveling very fast. If they increased their pace even more, she didn't know whether the concubines and the young masters would be able to bear it.

"Then let's go back as soon as possible. The prince can't be at ease with us outside."

Gu Jiaorong spoke in a firm tone, and she was also worried that Pei Yunqing would send people to capture them and threaten Pei Xu.

If that's the case, the results won't be very good.

"Okay, I know this."

After hearing what Gu Jiaorong said, Shaoyao immediately went to communicate with the others.

Everyone knew that the situation was urgent and did not dare to delay on the road. After all, if something happened to their masters, even if the prince did not blame them, they would not be able to face the prince.

But they really didn't need to worry. After Pei Xu returned to the capital, he sent someone to pick them up.

Now that the situation has come to this, how could Pei Xu possibly feel at ease about the mother and son?

If Pei Yunqing had not suddenly killed the prince, Pei Xu would not have been so busy.

Pei Yunqing was already very proud at this time. The prince was dead, so who else could compete with him for the throne?

He never thought that Pei Xu would covet that position.

Therefore, he went to see the emperor with great pride, and no longer had to be humble as before.

"Father, have you ever regretted it?"

Pei Yunqing had a smile on his face. When he was imprisoned by his father, he made up his mind that if this day came, he would show off in front of his father and let his father know that he was the most suitable heir.

The emperor's body had long been hollowed out. Now, after hearing his words, although he was very angry, he could do nothing.

Pei Yunqing repaid him in his own way. He was trapped in the palace by this rebellious son and Hu Dequan.

And his most beloved concubine was actually Pei Yunqing's woman.

"I only hate myself for being so blind that I didn't see your evil ambition. You even dared to kill your own brothers."

When Pei Yunqing heard his father's words, he felt like he was hearing a joke.
