Chapter 328: Warning
"I do find this a bit puzzling. I don't recall doing anything wrong, so why is Your Highness warning me? I was just doing my job dutifully, so why is Your Highness warning me here?"
Prime Minister Xu was naturally questioning Gan Luo, and Gan Luo, overhearing this, readily told him everything. "Whether you've done it or not, you know in your heart. I don't need to ask you here. I have something else to tell you: Heaven is watching. If Prime Minister Xu goes too far, Heaven will definitely be looking for him in the next couple of days..."
Before he could finish speaking, Prime Minister Xu directly told Gan Luo, "Your Highness, there's no need for you to say anything here. I only want to tell you one thing: I have not done anything immoral or unethical. Please do not wrong me here."
At that moment, Gan Luo felt as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. He never expected her to say such a thing now. If it weren't for his mind-reading ability, which allowed him to perceive what she was thinking...
Gan Luo thought about it carefully again. If Gan Luo told Prime Minister Xu that she had the ability to read minds, what would the person in front of her do?
For some reason, Gan Luo felt for a moment that this person must be feeling a little panicked.
"I don't want to tell you anything else. I only want to tell you these things now, and I hope you can understand my intentions."
In fact, Gan Luo didn't want to deal with Prime Minister Xu, but unfortunately, Prime Minister Xu went too far.
Since this person has gone too far, then don't blame Gan Luo for being impolite, after all, Gan Luo's patience has its limits.
Finally, Gan Luo left the Prime Minister's residence, and at this moment, Prime Minister Xu must have been drenched in sweat, slumped on the ground, as if Gan Luo really knew something.
"Father, why did you suddenly collapse and sit on the ground? What happened? If so, Father, why don't you just tell your daughter and see if there's anything I can do to help you?"
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Xu told her, "What are you thinking about here? Nothing has happened, so you don't need to worry too much. Your father is here for you. All I want to tell you now is that you must listen to your father from now on, okay? You can't disobey your father."
Gan Luo left where Prime Minister Xu was and returned to the Princess's residence. At this moment, Lin Fengmian saw Gan Luo return alone and felt a little puzzled. Lin Ruohua also saw Gan Luo coming alone and went directly to Gan Luo.
"Your Highness, why did you come back alone? Didn't Green Bamboo come back with you? It's really puzzling to me. Did something happen to Green Bamboo?"
Gan Luo smiled faintly and told them without hesitation that he had left Green Bamboo in the palace to take care of Xu Jiu.
"Could it be that Xu Jiu was framed? But I find it quite puzzling. Who would dare to frame Xu Jiu here? Xu Jiu has a certain status in the palace, and more importantly, she was the first to become the emperor's concubine."
"There will always be someone who is foolish enough to try to frame her here, won't there? As long as I find out who it is, I will skin them alive and make them see how ruthless I am. I'll show them all and see if they dare to do it again."
Gan Luo's eyes held a hint of ruthlessness. Everyone who saw this was startled by Gan Luo. They couldn't help but swallow hard, thankful that they hadn't provoked Gan Luo in the past.
If they manage to recruit Gan Luo, he'll probably be in deep trouble next.
However, Gan Luo was unharmed. At this moment, Gan Luo turned her attention to them again. "By the way, there is something else I want to tell you. If you have any free time in the next few days, take a walk around the Prime Minister's residence and see if anyone has been there."
They all surely understood what Gan Luo meant.
"However, I have another question for Your Highness. Are you truly certain that you intend to..."
As Lin Ruohua was speaking, she suddenly found herself unsure of what to do next.
"You can tell me whatever you want to say directly. There's no need to hide anything here. After all, I believe that anything can be said directly."
"Now I just want to ask Your Highness, are you really not planning to go to Jiangnan anymore? If Your Highness can win the hearts of the people, it will be of great help to Your Highness. I wonder what Your Highness thinks now."
Upon hearing their words, Gan Luo pondered for a moment and indicated that he had not had such thoughts recently.
For Gan Luo, he now only wants to take things one step at a time and see what happens.
Such matters require careful consideration. Gan Luo decided to observe which official in the court wanted to go to Jiangnan and then secretly encourage that official to go. This would allow the official to become his confidant and gain popular support.
Gan Luo turned his gaze to Lin Fengmian. "I've noticed that you've been acting strangely these past few days. Has something happened? If so, you must tell me immediately. You can't hide it from me, you know?"
Lin Fengmian didn't know how to answer Yu Ganluo's question.
"Recently, a lot of things have happened in the Shadow Hall, and I don't know how to deal with them. No one is willing to listen to my orders, and I'm having a bit of a headache."
Lin Fengmian occasionally wondered if there was something wrong with him, after all...
But he always felt that he hadn't done anything wrong at all. He was doing everything for the good of Shadow Hall, but no one wanted to listen to him.
