The emperor laughed when he saw him, "You stubborn ass, didn't I say you would handle it?"
The Second Prince's eyes couldn't help but flicker. Such intimacy, such trust, who in the Gu family is this person under the mask
Gu Yanxi knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Constellation has discovered traces of the Chaoli tribe in the capital."
The emperor's smile froze on his face. He stood up and spoke in a dignified manner, "Are you sure it's the Chaoli tribe?"
"Yes, I'm sure." Gu Yanxi had been looking at Tong Yi, still with a coquettish look of incomprehension of the world, but when he said the three words "Chao Li tribe", her body clearly stiffened for a moment.
"Good, that's really good. All the people in the five camps of the capital are dead? All the city defense troops are dead? And you, the Qisusi, were discovered right under our noses. What the hell are you doing!" The emperor's face twitched, and he felt that his face was being pressed to the ground and stepped on hard by the Chaoli tribe.
Everyone in the room knelt down in unison. The emperor snorted coldly and strode out.
Like everyone else, Gu Yanxi waited until the emperor had left the hall before standing up, and the palace servants hurried to help their masters.
The time is now!
Gu Yanxi suddenly attacked, and with lightning speed, he whipped Tong Yi up and dragged her in front of him. Tong Yi only had time to scream before he grabbed her neck and chopped her unconscious with a knife!
"How dare you! She is the emperor's favorite concubine, what do you want to do!" Concubine Hui was supported by her son and shouted loudly. No matter how jealous she was of Tong Yi, she was still a family member, and they shared honor and disgrace. She would never be able to get anything good from Tong Yi!
Gu Cheng'an felt something was wrong and tried to infer what crime Tong Yi had committed based on his understanding of her. But after thinking it over, he couldn't figure out what else she could do in the palace besides vying for favor.
"What happened!" The emperor came back protected by Chen Qing after hearing the noise. He frowned when he saw his beautiful concubine, whom he loved so much just now, being held in Yan Xi's hands without mercy.
Throwing the man to his subordinates, Gu Yanxi swept his eyes over the frightened crowd, "Laifu, count the number of people. Anyone who deceives or disobeys will be treated as a spy."
“Your Majesty…” Concubine Hui’s face changed drastically, and she looked at the emperor with a sad voice, hoping to get a moment of mercy from the emperor. Otherwise, even if she and her son were innocent, she would never be able to turn things around after what happened today.
The emperor looked at Gu Yanxi.
Gu Yanxi said nothing, walked forward and helped him to the window of the side hall bedroom, and removed some horizontal and vertical wood from the window frame. Soon, a wolf with horns on its head and howling with its head held high appeared vividly, occupying the entire two windows. Its pointed horns seemed to have seen blood and revealed a fierce look.
The emperor took a step back and pointed at the window with a trembling hand. "The totem of the Chaoli tribe! They are so arrogant! Check! Find out who built this window. I will kill all ten of his clans!"
"I have sent someone to investigate."
The emperor leaned on the table and gasped. He couldn't explain the emotions piling up in his heart. He just felt uncomfortable, so uncomfortable that he wanted to make everyone suffer!
"When was it discovered?"
"Just now." Gu Yanxi helped him to sit aside, "Tong Guiren is a new face in the palace. According to convention, people who come to your side need to be carefully investigated. I was anxious to report to you what the second prince did. He has not yet taken care of the matter since returning from Yinshan Pass, and I have not had the opportunity to report to you."
The emperor felt even more deceived when he thought about the preferential treatment he had given to the second son today. If Tong Yi had problems, how could Hui Fei, the daughter of the Tong family, not have problems? Yes, with the second son's stupid head, if no one was giving him advice behind the scenes, could he have plotted against Wu Yongdu? How could he have sent so many generals to the same place without him noticing in two years
"After I met Concubine Tong in Lanzhi Palace, I heard my subordinates report about her. At first, I did not doubt her. The Tong family is a big family in the capital. The daughter is the imperial concubine and the grandson is the prince. There is no reason for the Tong family to do anything that is not conducive to the Daqing Dynasty."
"What made you doubt her?"
"My subordinates told me that she lived in Yuzhou before she was ten years old. Because of Yuan Shifang's incident, I am now very sensitive to Yuzhou. After asking about Tong Yi's situation in detail, I really became suspicious." Gu Yanxi looked at the wooden wolf that seemed to be silently mocking him from above. "Tong Yi is a distant relative of the Tong family. When she was ten years old, her mother passed away and her father treated her badly. She came to the Tong family for help from Madam Tong and was registered as the second son of the Tong family. At that time, I thought of the methods used by the Chaoli tribe now, and it made perfect sense to apply them to Tong Yi."
"So you asked Lai Fu to keep me here while you look for evidence?"
"yes."
Eunuch Lai Fu knelt on the ground and said, "I have deceived the emperor and deserve death."
"If you are guilty of a crime worthy of death, is there anyone left alive in this palace?" The emperor's eyes turned bloodshot, and he suddenly threw the teapot and teacups on the table at the window, "Tong Yi! Tong family! Someone come here!"
Fu Gang came in immediately.
"Tong Zhensheng is guilty of treason. Capture him immediately. I will skin him alive. Skin him alive!" The emperor turned around with a ferocious look on his face. "Throw all the members of the Tong family into the prison and interrogate them strictly!"
"Your Majesty, I obey your order." Fu Gang bowed and retreated. The Tong family was finished. Concubine Hui, who had been the most powerful concubine during this period, was finished.
"Bring the second brother here. I want to ask him if he can't wait for me to die, and if he wants to send me off!"
How ridiculous! Gu Yanxi really laughed behind the mask. He didn't care that the border guard almost died, that the Hua family almost died out and the world was in turmoil, that Zeng Xian died unjustly, or whether the second brother was colluding with people outside the border. All his anger now was because someone threatened his own life and someone was eyeing the dragon throne he was sitting on.
Let the silence spread. Gu Yanxi looked at the mess and felt that no matter how much he did, it was meaningless. His efforts to find and fill in the gaps everywhere could not match the efforts of the father and son. It would be better to just destroy the country and let everyone end up with a clean slate.
They were close, and Gu Cheng'an was pushed in in a moment. Chen Qing knew what he had done and was not polite to him at all.
Gu Cheng'an knew that things were not going well when he saw this. He knelt down without waiting for the emperor to say anything. "Father, I really don't know anything about this matter. I don't even know what crime Concubine Tong has committed. Please investigate."
“That was a clean push this time.” The emperor walked up to him and kicked him to the ground. He also staggered back a step due to the recoil. Gu Yanxi helped him in time and prevented him from retreating further.
"We sent people to kill the Hua family. Do you know about this?"
"As a prince, you are collaborating with the enemy. Do you know about this?"
"Do you know about the poisoning of the last male member of the Wu family who has guarded Yinshan Pass for generations?"
"Your son, your son was deceived and made a serious mistake..."
Gu Yanxi suddenly interrupted him, "Who deceived you?"
