After meeting her face-to-face, I discovered that Lu Wu was very similar to my sister Rong Fei when she was young. Even the way she walked was very similar," Mei Fei said.

Guo Chong frowned and said, "Didn't you say that you have met her before? Why didn't you notice that she looked like a child?"

Concubine Mei hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, it was at the banquet that time. I took a quick glance, where did I take a closer look? When I was in Rongxiu Palace that day, Lu Wu happened to be wearing the same clothes that Concubine Rong's sister had worn before.

It's the emerald green piping brocade jacket with a red velvet flower embroidered on the chest. You should remember that it was often worn in the Prince's Mansion. At first glance, I thought it was Concubine Rong's sister, but later I realized it was the green one.

Wu's appearance and body shape were 90% similar. I also knew that I shouldn't think too much about this matter, but I couldn't hide my curiosity, so I made some inquiries. Only then did I know that sister Rong Fei was interested in this green girl.

She is an excellent dancer. She has been summoned to the palace many times and given many gifts. She is also very tolerant and kind to her. Your Majesty, I am not a meddlesome person, but I feel that something is a little fishy. If the Emperor does not trust me,

You can find a chance to see the green dance, and then you will know that what I said is true."

Guo Chong's face was extremely gloomy. He didn't really believe what Concubine Mei said, but as a man, he couldn't ignore it all. Concubine Mei's implication was that Lu Wu might be Concubine Rong's daughter, then

That is to say, Concubine Rong may have been unfaithful to him. If Concubine Rong had not had a love affair with Lu Feiming before marrying him, Guo Chong would feel better. However, Guo Chong knew that she had been married to Lu Feiming before.

This matter has always been a stalker in his mind. If Concubine Rong and himself were not in perfect condition when they got married, Guo Chong would definitely punish her severely. Concubine Rong and himself were indeed in perfect condition on the night of their wedding, so Guo Chong slowly took his time

After so many years, Guo Chong no longer felt any discomfort in his heart. But this incident suddenly appeared at this moment, but it reminded Guo Chong again.

Hit the block in the heart.

Concubine Mei and Guo Xu anxiously lowered their heads and knelt on the ground, peeking at Guo Chong from time to time. Seeing the gloomy and uncertain look on Guo Chong's face, mother and son were also in a state of anxiety. Concubine Rong was not an ordinary person, and she kept secrets behind her back.

It is extremely inappropriate to talk about Concubine Rong here, not to mention that this matter involves Guo Chong. If Guo Chong is blamed, the crime will be serious. Concubine Mei has made up her mind. If Guo Chong is blamed, she will take all the blame.

If the emperor takes over, it must not affect Guo Xu. If the emperor has a bad opinion of Guo Xu because of this, it is absolutely unacceptable.

"You..." Guo Chong spoke slowly: "You... didn't report this matter to me, but you talked about it behind your back and secretly tried to investigate this matter? What's your intention?"

"Your Majesty... I don't have any ulterior motive. I'm really just curious. If I have to have any ulterior motives, I'm thinking about the Emperor and my sister Rong Fei. Except for me and Xu, this matter

Apart from my son, I didn’t tell anyone. But if Lu Wu went in and out of the Rongxiu Palace, there was no guarantee that someone would notice something strange in the future. If rumors spread, wouldn’t it be detrimental to the reputation of the royal family. So I want to know the truth about this matter.

, one is for the sake of the emperor’s reputation, and the other is to clear my sister’s innocence and clear her name. Other than that, I don’t have any other intentions, please understand clearly.”

Concubine Mei's words were flawless. She obviously wanted to find out something detrimental to Concubine Rong. After she said this, she was full of protective intentions.

Guo Chong breathed a sigh of relief and pondered for a long time: "This matter... Although I don't believe what you said, but as you said, in order to avoid rumors, maybe we should investigate it."

Concubine Mei was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Yes, my concubine said she wanted to check it out."

Guo Chong shouted coldly: "The investigation is necessary, but you are discussing this matter behind my back. This kind of behavior is absolutely unacceptable. And hiding it from me and not reporting it to me is even more intolerable. Concubine Mei, you followed me

In all these years, I have never seen you talking about people behind their backs, do you want to be that talkative woman and do secretive things behind your back?"

Concubine Mei hurriedly kowtowed and shouted: "Your Majesty, please calm down. This matter is my fault and I deserve to die."

Guo Xu also kowtowed and said: "Father, please calm down. This matter is my fault. When my mother mentioned this, I should have reported it to my father. But I felt that it was related to the harem, so I backed down."

. It was caused by my son's lack of decisiveness. I shouldn't have discussed this matter with my mother today. My father heard it today. If someone else heard it and spread it, without finding out, wouldn't it be possible?

My son and my mother are spreading rumors. My son is very ashamed."

Guo Chong waved his hand and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, and you don't have to force it on me. I understand your intention to protect your mother. Concubine Mei, look, Xu'er understands it better than you. It's unwarranted.

Suspicion is the worst thing. Don't you think I'm not upset enough? It's rare to have a few quiet days, and then I hear you guys talking nonsense here."

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I have truly realized my mistake. From now on, I will keep silent about this matter and will not say another word." Concubine Mei kowtowed.

"If you don't say it, it doesn't mean that you have given up. I don't believe the nonsense you are saying. I still trust Concubine Rong. But... in order to get rid of these thoughts in your heart, so that you will not get along with Concubine Rong in the future.

It's not harmonious. We also want to avoid the birth of other rumors. I decided that this matter... I'd better investigate it thoroughly, clear my name, and shut your mouth." Guo Chong shouted in a deep voice.

Concubine Mei opened her eyes wide in surprise. It was really hard to guess the emperor's thoughts, and it was also hard to figure out the emperor's mood and anger. His way of speaking was all about kicking here and there, and he didn't know his purpose.

But Guo Xu was already in a state of admiration. His father was his father. He really had a profound city without revealing anything. He obviously wanted to know the result, but he came up with such a crowning reason. This may be the way of an emperor.

Well, what you say is different from what you think in your heart, but you will achieve what you want. You have a lot to learn.

"Xu'er, there is no need to rely on others to do this. If one more person knows about this, there will be more trouble. I leave this matter to you," Guo Chong said in a deep voice.

Guo Xu was so surprised that he hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely find out the truth about my child."

Guo Chong frowned and said: "I believe you can find out the truth, but you need to pay attention. Firstly, you must not go to war to cause trouble in the city, otherwise I will not agree. If Concubine Rong finds out, you will not be able to escape the blame. Secondly, regardless of the investigation

Whatever you learn, you must keep it a secret. You are not allowed to tell anyone except me, including your mother, and...your grandfather. Do you understand?"

"Father, don't worry, I understand." Guo Xu said in a deep voice.

"Besides, I want to meet that Lu Wu and see what she looks like. You can arrange it. Don't arouse any suspicion." Guo Chong said calmly.

"I will obey my orders, and I will make arrangements." Guo Xu promised.

Guo Chong nodded, stood up and walked out. Concubine Mei called out: "Your Majesty, won't you sit down for a while? I, my concubine, will talk to your Majesty."

Guo Chong sneered and said: "You'd better reflect on it carefully. I'll go shopping elsewhere so as not to disturb you behind closed doors and think about your mistakes."

Concubine Mei looked sad and kowtowed: "I know, I will send you to the Emperor respectfully."

Guo Chong's words actually issued a punishment order, which was to make Concubine Mei shut up and reflect on her past mistakes. How could Concubine Mei not understand?
