The guards at the palace gate have been replaced by the Nine Kings.
Gu She gave a wink, and the head of the guards of the General's Mansion stepped forward.
"Gu Shelai, the grandson of General Lian, voted for the Nine Kings."
The guard looked puzzled and went in to report for a long time.
Gu She was riding on the horse, thinking in his heart: What has Wu Wen been thinking for a long time? I don't know how tormented
But thinking of Lao Tao protecting Tao Mo, he felt relieved.
After waiting for a long time, someone came out and only let Gu She go in.
Gu shot down Ma Shi and went forward, as if going to a poetry banquet for talented scholars.
As expected, the Nine Kings were in the hall. Seeing Gu She stepping in calmly, he seemed a little anxious.
"Aren't you Gu Xianzhi? When did you become Gu She?"
"After my brother died."
"Are you really here to vote for me?"
"The Nine Kings should know how my brother died."
"How do I know your sincerity?"
"On the way back to Beijing, I saw a big inner guard arresting Shi Qianshan, saying that Zhu Qi ordered him to arrest him, and he wanted to live. I just made friends with a few people in the world, so I asked them to follow them. It turned out that Zhu Qi and Shi Qianshan Meet Qianshan. Zhu Qi said, killing Shi Qianshan is your intention, he himself does not want to kill him at all, and he will assign important tasks to Shi Qianshan in the future."
Jiu Wang's hands trembled, but he didn't speak.
Gu She continued: "My people discovered that Zhu Qi brought Shi Qianshan into the imperial city and hid in this palace."
Nine Kings stood up in a huff: "Really?"
Gu She flicked his lapel: "Gu She is a literati who has no strength to restrain a chicken and came alone. The Nine Kings can imprison Gu She here and then take people to go. If Gu She dares to deceive the Nine Kings, the Nine Kings just don't care. It’s a crime to ask Gu She.”
Jiu Wang took a few steps on the spot: "Come here!"
Gu She led the Nine Kings to the door of the emperor's bedroom and stopped.
"With so many people going in, I'm afraid they will startle the snake."
The Nine Kings were skeptical: "This place has long been surrounded by my people. I have searched several times, but there is no sign of Zhu Qi."
Gu She didn't speak, just waited quietly.
After a long time, the Nine Kings waved his hand, stopped the crowd, ordered a few personal guards with high martial arts skills, and followed Gu She into it.
In the past, there were many eunuchs and maids in the palace, but now it is terribly deserted.
The dragon bed, which is usually placed in a square shape, has been split open, and the surrounding area has been searched, obviously looking for the mechanism of the secret passage.
Gu She said calmly: "If the Nine Kings still use this palace in the future, it's better to leave only one confidant to open the mechanism."
Nine Kings frowned and looked at him for a long time, then waved his hands: "Everyone back down."
The head of the guard hesitated: "This..."
The Nine Kings sneered: "Gu Xian's hands are weak, so why are you afraid of him?"
The head of the guards retreated to the door, but they all stood guard at the door.
Gu She stood still and looked up at the roof: "The Nine Kings might as well go up to the roof beam and have a look."
The Nine Kings leaped up to the roof beam, only to see a dragon tattooed on the back of the beam, but there was no other abnormality.
"Where is the agency?"
"It's up to the Nine Kings to find it by themselves. Gu She has never gone up, so he only knows that he wants to go up and open it."
The Nine Kings hesitated for a while, but seeing that the longan was very smooth, he pressed it down.
Hearing only a slight sound of the mechanism, Gu She disappeared instantly, revealing a hole in the ground!
The Nine Kings jumped down from the beam and entered the cave, but there was no darkness in front of them. Gu She stood in the gleam of the night pearl, waiting for him fixedly.
"He treats you really well. He is willing to tell you about such life-threatening matters."
Jiu Wang spoke with a half-smile.
Gu She looked back coldly: "What do you mean, don't the Nine Kings not understand?"
"I only know that he was very infatuated with your brother back then."
Gu She stopped abruptly: "So infatuated that you have to kill my brother?"
The tone of the Nine Kings also turned cold: "If it were me, I would kill your brother too. After all, no matter how important your brother is, how can your own throne be so important? - Do you still want to rely on me?"
Gu She caressed a portrait on the wall: "After all, you haven't done this yet."
The Nine Kings looked at the wall, and the painting turned out to be Lianjian. He was riding Liankuai, carrying a quiver, and had the same exquisite facial features as Gu She, but he looked indescribably heroic.
The Nine Kings didn't look too much, but urged: "Where is Zhu Qi?"
Gu She wanted to take off Lian Jian's portrait and take it away, but the sword of the Nine Kings rested on his neck: "Stop delaying! Let's go!"
Gu She said calmly, "What's the hurry?"
As if responding to Gu She's words, there was a rush of footsteps. Nine Kings grabbed Gu She and hid at the bend of the narrow corridor.
The person who came was a young eunuch. He ran to the hiding place of Jiu Wang and Gu She, suddenly turned his head to look at Jiu Wang, said "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Gritting his teeth, Jiu Wang pushed Gu She away and chased after him.
Gu She stood firm, patted the soil on his body, and took off the portrait of Lianjian, revealing a Buddhist altar. He spread his five fingers, pinched the incense burner and turned it lightly, there was a slight sound of mechanism behind him, and the entrance of the secret passage was suddenly closed.
He calmly rolled up the portrait of Lian Jian, took a few steps forward, and leaned against a certain place on the wall. There was a crack in the wall, just enough for him to slip in.
The cracks on the wall were slowly closed again. If they hadn't known in advance, who would have thought that there was a dark room right at the entrance of the dark passage
Not long after he went in, the Nine Kings turned back and saw that the entrance to the secret passage had been closed, and slapped the entrance to call for the guards. However, the secret passage is so tightly sealed that it cannot be heard from outside.
"Gu Xianzhi!"
Almost crushed a steel tooth. But—alone in this secret tunnel with unknown circumstances, he had no time to regret.
Lifting the sword, he walked towards the exit step by step.
"Ah Xu!"
A familiar voice came, and he had heard this call countless times in his 23 years of life.
"Zhu Qi."
He didn't call his brother, but called the man's name.
Going forward, he actually entered a spacious reception room. Tables and chairs made of rosewood, bright candlelight, and an eagerly waiting host.
"You are free!"
The emperor laughed at himself: "A generation of emperors, hiding in the ground like a mouse, where did they come from?"
He sat down opposite the emperor: "I have worked hard to control the capital and the imperial city, but I have never caught you. So you built such a good place!"
"I didn't fix it." The emperor said sadly, "It was built by the previous emperor, but I didn't expect it to be used by me."
"Unexpectedly, after you killed Lianjian, Gu Xianzhi would still be willing to use it for you!"
"He is not for my use. He said that if you fight for the throne, many innocent people will die. So he lured you here, whoever gets out alive, he will let him sit on the dragon chair, and the dust will settle as soon as possible, so as not to harm the innocent."
"You lied to me? When did Gu Xianzhi become such a person?!"
The emperor smiled wryly: "I also don't think he is such a person, but he did say so."
The Nine Kings immediately pressed the hilt of the sword: "Are you going to compete with me here?"
"No." The emperor shook his head, "I don't want to kill you."
"You think you can kill me?!" Jiu Wang sneered, "Aren't you afraid of being killed by me?"
"Do you believe Xianzhi's words?"
Nine Kings was stunned: "Believe it or not, since I rebelled, I will never allow you to live."
The emperor shook his head: "Why does he care about this matter? He and Gu Xiang have already broken up, and this matter does not involve General Lian. Whoever sits on the dragon chair has nothing to do with him. If you have to say who is biased... I will kill Lian." Arrow, you have a grudge against him, but you have no grudges against him, why didn't he directly join you? Why did you give me this opportunity?"
Nine Kings mocked: "Don't you think he has feelings for you?"
The emperor was dejected: "He had no intentions for me in the past, it is impossible not to see him for three years, but he changed his mind instead."
Before the Nine Kings could speak, a voice came: "He really doesn't mean anything to you."
The emperor and the nine kings said in unison: "Sister Jing!"
Princess Jing stepped out slowly: "I can guess why Gu Xianzhi wants to take care of this matter. But I want to know first, are you two really planning to compete?"
Jiu Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Not bad!"
Princess Jing looked at the emperor again, and the emperor said calmly, "I don't want to kill him, but I will never give up the throne!"
"You don't want to kill him?" Princess Jing sneered, "Why did you give him so much power, almost taking Gu Xiang and Shi Taiwei out of the picture? Isn't this flattery? Didn't you give him the ability and opportunity to rebel because of a His mother and compatriots can't do it, and lure him to seek his own death?"
The emperor blushed, but he returned to normal in an instant: "He has always looked down on me. I have adopted him as his son, but I still can't get his forgiveness! He hates me for breaking my sleeves, but if I didn't break my sleeves, how could I adopt him? son?!"
"You fart!" Jiu Wang swears uncharacteristically, "Since you have adopted my son, why do you want Sister Jing to look for Brother Chang's posthumous son? Isn't it because you are dissatisfied with my son? Want to find another one? I miss you I have the same father and the same mother as my dear brother, and I have worked hard to help you for many years, but you gave me medicinal wine when I invited Shi Qianshan to drink, deliberately humiliating me! If I don’t kill you, I won’t die with peace in my eyes!”
Princess Jing frowned and said: "Zong'er has been sick all the time, and the emperor is also afraid that something will happen to him... Although the surname is Zhu in this world, it is not the emperor's, nor yours. It is always good to have more than one candidate."
Jiu Wang said coldly: "There is no need to talk nonsense. The matter has come to this point, and it will be up to you!"
"That's right!" An old and loud voice came, and General Lian came out, "Let's do it early! Whoever survives, I will serve as the master."
Princess Jing scolded: "Lian Qifeng! How dare you despise the owner!"
General Lian laughed loudly: "Princess Jing, the Emperor and the Nine Kings are here, do you know what's going on outside? If the Emperor and the Nine Kings don't decide the winner immediately, Shi Taiwei will announce that the Emperor and the Nine Kings are both here." It has passed away, and then I will enshrine the prince of Zong as the young master. The minister is for the sake of Zhu's country and the people of the world, and I ask the emperor and the nine kings to decide the winner immediately."
The Nine Kings didn't believe it: "Impossible! Now both the imperial city and the capital are my confidantes! Shi Data is also loyal to me!"
Princess Jing's face was livid: "If it wasn't for the meritorious deeds of following you to rebel, how could those people take such a risk? You led the crowd to rebel for your own self-interest, where are the Zhu family and the ancestors now? ! "
The Nine Kings gritted their teeth and said to the emperor: "You disgusting broken sleeve, come and die!"
He stepped on the table, jumped up, and rushed towards the emperor!
The author has something to say:
(The surname of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but not the first name of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I am also very good at making it up.
But it's really not easy to attach any real historical figure, let's respect history! A joke is a joke. )
