The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 599

Chapter 599: Empress Dowager Takes Action (Part 4) - Double Update

Empress Dowager Zhuang’s eyebrows arched in cold beauty, "Is a mere fire enough to drive him into an Array? In my opinion, it’s clear that someone wants to drive him out."

"Then why didn’t he capture that person?" Tang Yueshan asked.

He had his reasons for the doubt.

If Gu Changqing could beat that person, then he wouldn’t need to hide.

But if Gu Changqing could not beat that person, then if he could break through the Array, so could the other person, and they could still force him out.

Empress Dowager Zhuang stated calmly, "If the other person turned the tables and said that they came to save him, and that they were on his side, what would he do? Would you believe him or the assassin?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang sighed slowly, "I know, you very much want to kill General Gu."

Tang Yueshan’s aura dimmed a bit, but he remained unconvinced, "What does Your Majesty mean by this?"

"Bring him in!"

As soon as Empress Dowager Zhuang finished her sentence, two burly eunuchs escorted a ragged young man into the room.

It took Tang Yueshan a good while to recognize him, "You... aren’t you Mingming’s Changsui? The one... called Deng Ge?"

Deng Ge knelt down with a thud, "Your Majesty, spare my life -- Master, spare my life --"

Tang Yueshan asked sternly, "Where have you been these days? I’ve been looking everywhere for you!"

Deng Ge cried in fear, "I... I... After I heard that Young Master’s arm was cut off by General Gu... I ran away..."
