Gu Juefei went crazy.
Or he was dreaming.
At the moment of witnessing this scene, Fang Shaoxing had two such thoughts in his mind. Because even if he was as daring as he was, he couldn't quite believe what he saw just now, let alone what he heard.
All the guards outside the Taiji Hall were even more terrified.
They saw Gu Juefei raise the sword, and they did see the quarrel between him and the emperor, but the person in front of them was none other than Gu Juefei, a great scholar in the dynasty!
For the country and the people, it can be said that he is the most unlikely person in the world to rebel!
But now, even under the watchful eyes of all the people, this most improbable person actually raised a butcher's knife to the emperor!
Just such a short moment!
The emperor is gone, the country has no monarch, and the people have no ruler!
All the changes happened too fast, too unexpected, and even people could not react at all...
From the beginning to the end, only Gu Juefei was calm.
He straightened his back indifferently, held the sword, moved his feet, walked down the high steps, and handed the blood-stained sword to Fang Shaoxing.
Then, he bent down and picked up the imperial decree that fell to the ground and wiped his hands.
Ming Huang's decree.
Slender fingers.
The blood splattered on his fingers was wiped clean by him, bit by bit, gracefully and calmly, but the imperial edict was dyed a dazzling red.
"Go and invite Ji Henglai to write an obituary to the world, and say that the emperor died of a sudden illness. Immediately block the palace gate and prohibit people from entering and leaving. If anyone dares to violate the order, they will kill first and then file." Gu Juefei raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Shaoxing, "As for The troop strength in Beijing will be closely monitored, and anyone who enters the capital or knocks on the city gate in the name of 'King of Qin' will be killed."
I'm afraid that Xiao Che didn't understand until he died, why things took a turn for the worse.
He even just squeezed the imperial decree into the palm of his hand, and before he could be proud for a moment, his head was chopped off with a sword, and he had no respect and dignity as an emperor.
Just because the emperor is aloof, but without the civil and military officials who support him behind him, he is nothing but a loner who is helpless and slaughtered by others.
After all—
A mortal body, flesh and blood, An dare to call himself the "Son of Heaven"
When he said this, he just stopped in his footsteps, stood beside Xiao Che's head that rolled on the golden bricks of the Golden Palace, glanced at it, smiled, and said indifferently: "Pick up this head, Send it to Zhuozhou and give it to Xue Kuang."
"… "
Fang Shaoxing had already taken the cyan steel sword in his hand, the blood hanging on the blade flowed down the sword's edge, and a few patches of bright red were spotted on the icy ground. He stared at Gu Juefei, as if he finally felt something like him. curious.
After all, it's amazing to say that you change your face when you change your face.
For a moment, such a thought suddenly crossed his mind: he said that he wanted to rebel in a high-sounding manner, but he killed Xiao Che, whether it was a more well-planned rebellion, or a hatred that was unquenchable and simply an old master. More revenge
Fang Shaoxing was silent for a moment, then glanced at the head on the ground, and then said: "Not long after you entered the palace, the concubine Xian Gui also brought Lu Jinxi into the palace. Now it should be in the Zhaoyang Palace."
"It seems that Madam doesn't like this palace, nor does it like the fact that this palace has forcibly invited you to the palace."
In Zhaoyang Hall, Wei Yi stood beside the incense burner and fiddled with it gently.
Her voice no longer had the trembling and panic when arguing with Xiao Che in the Qianqing Palace yesterday, she was calm and graceful, as always.
Lu Jinxi just stood behind her, watching her fiddling with the fragrant ash little by little, but in his heart, he had already guessed the plan of this virtuous concubine who suddenly forced her to come to the palace.
Today, as soon as Gu Juefei left, someone came to the palace.
At first, she thought that something big had happened, but she didn't expect that it was someone sent by Wei Yi.
The attitude of the other party is quite tough, and even pressured by the emperor's order. Lu Jinxi didn't want to go, but after thinking about it, Gu Juefei was in the palace, and there was another Fang Shaoxing who was guarding the capital, so nothing happened, so he came.
This is her first time to Wei Yi's bedroom.
Zhaoyang Hall, the closest hall in the entire harem to the Qianqing Palace, where the emperor lived, can be said to be a symbol of status and favor, even the Queen's Kunning Palace is dwarfed by it.
In the time of the late emperor, this was the palace of the late queen Wei Qiang.
Carved fences and painted screens are full of wealth.
The decoration of this palace is worthy of Weiyi's current favor and status.
Hearing Wei Yi's words at this moment, Lu Jinxi didn't show any clues on his face, or that his heart was really calm, and it was hard to make waves. Only on the other side of the table was an inlaid handle that seemed to be placed at random. Glancing at the gem's dagger, he narrowed his gaze veiledly, and said with a light smile: "The noble concubine is a woman of gold, and she is carrying a dragon child, so it is easy to see the minister's wife. You have your life, the minister's wife. dare not quit.”
"You also said, 'Don't dare'."
Wei Yi's fingers fiddling with the incense ash stopped for a while, and the incense stick gently leaned against the Zijin Boshan stove with a crisp sound, and then laughed again.
"But you don't have to worry. Although this palace doesn't like you, it's just a lack of words for you to enter the palace today, so I'm looking for you to relieve my boredom, and I won't do anything to you."
For no reason, who would call their own thorns
Lu Jinxi didn't believe her words.
It's just that since everyone has said so, she won't slap it ignorantly, she just nodded with a smile: "You worry too much, it's an honor to be able to talk to you, as long as you don't dislike me for not speaking well. ."
Can't speak
Isn't that pretty talkative
Wei Yi sneered in her heart, and just wanted to turn around and say something to Lu Jinxi. Unexpectedly, when I looked up, I saw the palace maid outside the door hurriedly running in!
"Niangniang, Niangniang, it's not good!" The palace maid was so frightened that she ran into the palace all the way, knelt on the ground, pointed to the outside of the palace gate and said, "The guards in the palace are all surrounded! It is said that there is a change in the palace. , no one can enter at will!"
"what?"
Wei Yi's face changed, and she realized almost instantly that something must have happened. She is never someone who sits and waits for death. She just threw the incense stick in her hand, raised the corner of her luxurious skirt, and walked out!
The palace maids didn't know what she was going to do, so they panicked and tried to stop her.
Who would have guessed that Wei Yi was so fast that he couldn't catch up.
After a while, he walked to the gate of the palace, took a step outside, and saw two columns of guards standing side by side outside the gate of the palace, holding swords and halberds, with a cold expression!
As soon as they saw her coming out, the two closest people directly crossed their swords in the front block, with no expression on their vicious faces, they only said solemnly: "Master Fang has an order, the palace is forbidden, and no one is allowed to move around at will. . Niangniang, swords have no eyes, please return to the palace, don't let the villains and others embarrass them."
"Master Fang, Shaoxing Fang? What kind of thing is he!"
Wei Yi never thought that he would be blocked, not to mention that he heard Fang Shaoxing's name from these people, and his face was extremely ugly.
"What qualifications does he have to make an order? This palace wants to meet the emperor, you all go away!"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to see you again."
A quiet voice suddenly sounded from the palace road on the side, the warmth of the past has been covered with an unfamiliar frost, falling into Wei Yi's ears, and there is an unprecedented coldness!
Gu Juefei walked over from the other side with someone, the blood on his filial attire was not dry yet, while walking, the cool breeze and the cold mist lifted the hem of the clothes, which was shocking!
The moment he saw him, Wei Yi was shocked.
There was no need for him to say any more, she had already constructed the whole picture in her mind, and she only felt that the apex of her heart trembled for a while.
The spontaneous fear caused her to step back when Gu Juefei approached.
She thought about what kind of changes Gu Chengqian's death would bring to the court and what kind of changes it would bring to Gu Juefei. But she never thought that she would be so decisive, so tragic, so crazy and desperate!
"no no… "
Wei Yi's footsteps were already messy, as if she couldn't believe what she had guessed, and she couldn't believe that the person who forced her to the gate of her palace today was the elegant and noble son who was smiling and smiling!
She retreated into Zhaoyang Hall as if she was about to grab the life-saving straw.
"Retire for this palace! Don't come here!"
At the moment when he retreated, Lu Jinxi's figure was already reflected in his eyes, and Wei Yi's eyes flashed ruthlessly, almost when Lu Jinxi looked at her, she had already caught her!
At the same time, he reached out and grabbed the case behind him—
But she never thought that this capture would be a no-brainer!
The case where a dagger was originally placed, I do not know when, is already empty, there is nothing.
Wei Yi's expression was stunned for a while.
But then, that strange and ominous premonition rose from the depths of her heart, and she let go, backed away, and looked at Lu Jinxi.
Lu Jinxi stood there, his face neither flustered nor confused, but with a somewhat complicated smile on his face, he revealed the dagger he had hidden in his sleeve while Wei Yi had just left the palace gate in a state of confusion. He sighed lightly, "Niangniang, are you looking for it?"
"… "
The gems inlaid on the dagger all came from Fanbang as a tribute, and the workmanship is also exquisite, but at this moment in Lu Jinxi's hands, it made her feel so desperate.
Wei Yi took three steps back, but there was no trace of blood on his face.
The guards blocked the gate of the palace, and the maids cried a lot, and they were all forcibly pulled out.
Gu Juefei's footsteps became softer.
He walked in from the door with his hands behind his back, only took Lu Jinxi's hand and made her stand behind him, and then slowly said: "The emperor died of a sudden illness this morning, and the concubine Xiangui is his favorite person. Wei Chen went to Zhaoyang Hall in person to invite the empress to be the emperor—to be buried!"
