The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 598

Chapter 598: Empress Dowager Takes Action (Part 3) - Double Update

Gu Changqing only had to hide behind a few passages to ensure that no one could find him!

Cunning, too cunning!

However, Tang Yueshan couldn’t figure out why Gu Changqing did this.

If he had escaped to kill Tang Ming, it would have made sense, but strangely enough, he didn’t, and instead, other assassins went.

So, what was he hiding inside for? To play hide and seek?

Gu Changqing calmly replied, "I was afraid that the fire would be too big and burn me to death, so I hid in a safe place."

Tang Yueshan: "..."

No matter how weak Tang Yueshan thought this reason was, it did not change the fact that Gu Changqing did not escape from the Military Camp.

Tang Yueshan was seething with rage, but had nowhere to vent.

He gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Hmph! Even if you didn’t escape this time, what difference does it make? In three days, you will still be executed!"

In Gu Jiao’s dream, Tang Yueshan spared Gu Changqing because Gu Chengfeng took the blame.

But now, without Gu Chengfeng taking the blame, Gu Changqing still faced execution in three days.

Originally, Gu Chengfeng and Gu Jiao thought that by catching the real murderer of Tang Ming, they could find out who impersonated Feishuang and reveal the truth about Gu Changqing’s jailbreak.

Who would have thought that the other party would be so cunning, not showing up in person but having Lord Tang do the dirty work.

They even wanted to warn Tang Yueshan, hey, your big brother is not only planning to kill that bastard, but he is also conspiring with others to harm you.

But on what grounds should they say it?

As Gu Changqing’s siblings, or as the assassins that have already been "punished" by the Empress Dowager?

Neither would be convincing to Tang Yueshan.

This matter must be relayed by someone Tang Yueshan fully trusts.

And Tang Yueshan was quite suspicious. The fact that he even suspected Lady Tang of killing Tang Ming was enough to prove this.

The next day, Eunuch Qin came to the Marshal Residence.

"The Empress Dowager summons Lord Tang, please accompany me to the palace immediately," he said.
