After that, Zhou Ying went to King Rui’s Residence to check on Gu Wanning.
After confirming that Gu Wanning was safe, she also took a look at Gu Chenglin.
She did not expect to encounter him being ridiculed as an orphan.
Gu Chenglin retorted, “When you laugh at me, you should think about yourself first. At least I have my sister, cousin, and cousin-in-law who love us, but do you have anyone who loves you?
“Especially you, Su Anyi. I heard you and your mother were bullied and beaten by the main wife. How dare you laugh at me?
“And you, Sun Zhengyang, you’re just like me back then. Your father doesn’t love you, and your stepmother is spoiling you rotten. What’s there to be proud of?
“I still have a sister who dotes on me, but you don’t even have a biological brother or sister.”
“Gu Chenglin, you… you’re looking for a beating!” Sun Zhengyang raised his hand and was about to punch him.
Su Anyi was aggravated, and now that he had been exposed in public, he also rushed up to beat him up.
When the others saw this, some hid and ran out to seek the discipline teacher, but no one came forward to stop the fight.
Seeing that the three of them were about to fight, Zhou Ying immediately struck down the weakest lightning bolt she could.
The thunder jolted the three kids, especially Gu Chenglin. After all, he had seen people struck down by lightning with his own eyes.
Sun Zhengyang and Su Anyi looked at each other and calmed down.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying retreated with satisfaction. It seemed that the prestige of the Mother God had been deeply rooted in the capital.
She went to the palace and knew the Empress had seen King Hui’s appearance after being struck by lightning. It was obvious since her illness had worsened.
She even arranged for two imperial physicians to wait outside at any time.
Finally, she looked at King Hui’s Residence. At this moment, it was frighteningly quiet, and King Hui was getting briefed in detail about everything that had happened in the capital by a few strategists.
Just as Zhou Ying was about to leave, she suddenly heard King Hui say, “My fourth brother is living too happily. It seems that I was too kind to him in the past.”
“Master, it’s not a good time to make a move on King Kang. Otherwise, the Emperor might completely abandon us.”
“Abandon us? I’m already imprisoned; do you think he will willingly pass the throne to me?” King Hui snorted coldly.
Since Lord Zhao was detained in the capital, he knew that the matter of his replacing government officials was exposed.
Sure enough, it had only been a few months, and Pingyang Province had already been taken down.
It was only a matter of time before the Emperor took back other places, so he had to act quickly.
Once the strategists heard this, they looked at each other and lowered their heads. It was obvious that they agreed with what he said.
“Alright, you all can head back for now. Tomorrow, after I meet my uncle, we’ll decide on a plan.” King Hui waved his hand and chased them out.
Zhou Ying waited for a while more. When she saw that King Hui had started writing a letter to the Marquis of Ding’an, she went forward to look. She was surprised to see him asking for a poisoned bug.
She immediately understood something and quickly retreated.
Gu Chengrui returned after finishing his work and saw her sitting outside the storeroom in a daze. He went forward to rub her hair. “What are you thinking about? If I don’t know better, I would think that you’re in a meditative state.”
Zhou Ying did not hide it from him and told him about King Hui’s decision to rebel.
“He had no other choice. If it weren’t for the fact that the Emperor found out about the sterilization incident and pitied the mother and son, It wouldn’t be as simple as imprisonment.”
“It’s all his own doing. One can’t be without a bottom line.
“I just did not expect that he would really kill his father for the throne’s sake.”
“Are you going to stop it?”
Zhou Ying shook her head and said, “From my memory, I know Mother God will provide disaster relief to save the people. However, she has never participated in the change of dynasties.”
“We helped the Emperor before because we hoped he would punish the evil as soon as possible. We can’t get too involved..”
