Linlang hurriedly lowered her eyes to cover the joy in her eyes, but she felt that something was wrong. She had heard from her father that this Gu Huai was so talented in literature and had one of the best abilities, how could he be reduced to teaching a little eunuch?

Could it be that the second prince's power is too great? It's impossible. No matter how powerful the second prince is, he can't make fun of the pillars of the country. You must know that literati are proud, and asking them to teach an eunuch would be more uncomfortable than killing them.

There is only one possibility, and that is that something happened to Gu Huai, and he was not reused in the court at all, so he was dispensable and reduced to teaching him an eunuch.

"What are you thinking about? I've called you for a long time and you haven't come back to your senses?" The second prince knocked on the table, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Linlang raised his head in horror and said cautiously: "I'm thinking... I'm a eunuch, but I can be taught by adults... Will it bring trouble to the master?"

The second prince shook his head, with a trace of contempt flashing in his eyes, "You kid, you think very deeply, don't worry about these, you just study, you are just an ineffective little official, even if you want to make trouble, no one will pay attention..."

Hearing this, Linlang's heart sank. She didn't expect it to be like this. She remembered that when her father was alive, although Gu Huai didn't pay attention to him, he didn't ignore it, so what happened?

The next day, Linlang packed up her things and went to another courtyard, where she met Gu Huai. If she hadn't been worried about the servants around, she would have gone over to recognize him.

But even so, she was a little frightened when she saw the man in front of her. The handsome young man with high spirits before had now become decadent, with a trace of depression between his eyebrows.

"Gu...Master Gu..." Linlang called softly and nodded to him.

Gu Huai didn't even raise his head, he was extremely cold, "Take out the Thousand-Character Book, I'll teach you how to read today!"

Linlang looked around. Although there was no one here, there were still people walking around. She had no choice but to study with Gu Huai first. After everything went smoothly, Gu Huai asked him to practice calligraphy!

In the process of practicing calligraphy, Linlang wrote down all her experiences on paper. As for Gu Huai, he just sat in front of the window with a book, a little careless.

After Linlang wrote everything down on the paper, she handed it to Gu Huai and said, "Master Gu, it's getting late. The second prince will be back soon. I'll go back to serve the second prince first. As for the words written by the slave,

, you can take it back and see if there are any shortcomings, and you can teach me again tomorrow!"

Gu Huai nodded, closed the book, took the paper, and was attracted by the fonts on it. The characters on it were all in proud willow script, and he was very familiar with it...

Gu Huai quickly looked around and found that no one was watching, so he stuffed the things into his arms. After leaving the palace, he looked carefully and sweat broke out on his head.

"How was your study today?" After the second prince came back, he looked out of shape. He wore comfortable pajamas and lay on the bed.

"Fortunately, Master Gu taught you very carefully!" Linlang lowered his head.

"Careful?" The second prince chewed on these two words and burst into laughter. "If he was really so sensible, he wouldn't be suppressed by others!"

"Ah?" Linlang raised her head, a little confused, "I heard from my servants about Lord Gu, saying that he is a handsome and noble son, and he seemed to be the number one scholar at the beginning... How come..."

The second prince glanced at him, his face half-smiling but not smiling. Finally, he suddenly became expressionless and looked at him coldly, "Sometimes, knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing!"

Linlang lowered his head and went to see Gu Huai the next day, finding that he was no longer decadent and his eyes were bright. If he hadn't been worried about the people around him, he would have come to recognize him long ago.

Sure enough, when no one was around, Gu Huai grabbed Linlang's hand and asked anxiously: "Why did you enter the palace? And what happened to the teachers back then? Why did they all die suddenly..."

Linlang sighed, "I'm not particularly sure. I went to the temple on the mountain with my wet nurse to offer incense, and by chance I escaped, and I didn't find out about it until I got home!"

At first we were planning to report the crime, but we found that there were still people looking for us. There was no other way. My wet nurse and I had no choice but to come to the capital first and use my father’s previous connections to find some clues... I only knew that... those murder weapons were from inside the palace.

It leaked out...and it's related to the third prince..."

Gu Huai lowered his head, his eyes red with anger, "I also investigated the teacher's matter, but... they just used bandits to rob and kill people to close the case. I would like to continue investigating, but... it seems that someone is here

Hiding this matter..."

When Linlang heard this, tears fell, "I can't understand, my father is such an upright and fair man, who did he offend? To make him do such a cruel thing?"

Gu Huai patted Linlang's hand, "Now is not the time to talk about this. How come you, a girl from a family, pretended to be a eunuch and sneaked into the palace? The people in the palace are sinister. If your identity is discovered..."

"Then what can I do? My entire Gu family died unjustly, but no one investigated the matter... I just hate the injustice of heaven, so I can only come to the palace to investigate in person!

It's a pity that I've been here for a year or two and nothing has been investigated..."

"It's okay, I'm responsible for everything! Don't worry, as long as I live for one day, I will definitely investigate the matter and get to the bottom of it!

But regarding your identity, the palace comes to a place of dispute, so you’d better get out as soon as possible!”

Linlang thought for a while and felt that it was true. The palace was indeed a place of right and wrong, and she was not involved with the second prince, so she really had to leave here as soon as possible.

Three months later, the young eunuch beside the second prince lost his footing and fell into the pond. When he was fished out, he had become white and fat, making it difficult to see his face.

When the second prince learned about this, he turned blue with anger and went directly to the emperor.

"Father, you must investigate this matter on my behalf!" the second prince said sincerely.

"Second brother, what are you kidding about? He's just a little eunuch, and the case has been closed. He just slipped and fell into the water... You don't have to blame others. If you want to blame, blame your little eunuch for running away on a rainy day.

Go outside..." the eldest prince said in a strange tone.

When the second prince heard this, he turned around and stared at him coldly, "Nonsense, my little eunuch is aloof by nature and has no familiar people at all, so he can't run out for no reason at night. There must be someone."
