"Father, Mother! I must return to the palace immediately now, the hour is almost there. Mother, don't panic when you enter the palace tomorrow, your son will handle everything!"
Gu Chengyu smiled at Mrs. Lv and then left the room.
He took a deep breath, "Let's go!"
When he returned to the Dali Temple, it was already three quarters past 9 p.m. Gu Chengyu intended to take a short break but just as he blew out the candle, footsteps came from outside the door.
He immediately sat up, threw on his mourning clothes, and grasped the sword in his hand.
"Mr. Gu, the Crown Prince urgently summons you to the Eastern Palace for an important discussion!" Wang Zui knocked on the door and shouted towards the inside.
Gu Chengyu relaxed, immediately placing the sword back into its space. After dressing neatly, he opened the door and saw Wang Zui waiting outside.
