“Where are you going?” Fang Mingfeng’s eyes were burning as he restrained his voice. “Do you have a way?”

Chu You looked down at Fang Mingfeng from high in the air and nodded. His voice was as cold as ice. “Move aside!”

Fang Mingfeng was still holding the reins in Chu You’s hand. Veins popped up on the back of his hand, making the skin on the back of his hand look abnormally pale.

Instead of continuing to ask Chu You, he stood tall like a bamboo and said slowly, “If you can’t do it well, send someone to tell me. I have a way.”

For the sake of Rong Rong, I’m willing to forget about my previous grudges with Chu You for the time being.

He let go of the reins and took a silent step back, as if making a silent promise.

But Chu You didn’t take Fang Mingfeng seriously at all, and he arrogantly pursed his lips. He didn’t think the other party could be of any help. He spurred his horse and rode away without even looking back.

After he left Reed Alley, he returned the way he came and entered the palace again to seek an audience with the Emperor.

The Qianqing Palace at dusk was empty. Xiao Shoufu, Wang Kangyin, and the others had long left. The surroundings were abnormally quiet.

He Lie was sent out of the Qianqing Palace by the Emperor and waited under the corridor outside. The door closed after Chu You entered.

Chu You stayed with the Emperor in Qianqing Palace for a long, long time. No one knew what the brothers talked about.

When the door of Qianqing Palace opened again, night had completely fallen. Chu You came out with a dark expression and immediately met He Lie, who was guarding the door.

Even though he had waited outside alone for more than two hours, He Lie’s figure was still standing like a mountain. His determined eyes didn’t change at all.

Chu You glanced at He Lie deeply and left in big strides.

There were no stars in the night sky tonight. It was drizzling and cold as it landed on his face.

Chu You didn’t hold an umbrella and allowed the fine rain to fall on him. He walked straight towards the palace gate.

As he walked, Fang Mingfeng’s words echoed in his ears. “If you can’t do it well, send someone to tell me. I have a way.”

No!

There was a voice roaring angrily in Chu You’s heart. His face was dark as if it had been dyed with ink.

Ronger is my future princess consort. Even if she’s in trouble, I should be the one to help her.

My princess consort doesn’t need Fang Mingfeng to save her. I don’t want Ronger to think that I’m useless, let alone give Fang Mingfeng a chance.

Chu You walked faster and faster. When he reached the entrance of the palace, his sideburns were already a little damp.

As soon as he walked out of the palace door, his servant hurried towards him. “Your Highness.”

The servanfs expression didn’t look too good either. He reported, “The Embroidered Uniform Guards have already taken the Gu family away from Reed Alley an hour ago. Miss Gu was also taken away and entered the… North Town Bureau’s imperial prison.”

He said the last two words with difficulty.

As soon as Chang Sui received the news, he ran to the palace gate to report to Kang Wang. However, he was stopped by the imperial guards and couldn’t enter the palace. He could only circle around anxiously.

Chu You’s first reaction was to go to the North Town Bureau, but he stopped after taking half a step.

He stood rooted to the ground in a daze. His heart was in a daze, and his emotions were irritable. Anxiety, anger, depression, and so on filled his heart, but he had nowhere to vent.

He knew that even if he went to the North Town Bureau, he would only be ridiculed by the Embroidered Uniform Guards for no reason. It was useless.

The rain kept falling. His clothes were gradually soaked by the rain, and his body was wet. When the night wind blew, his entire body was cold.

There was a terrifying silence at the entrance of the palace..
