The sedan was much slower than the carriage, so it was better because it was more stable. Although the emperor was in a hurry, Qin Jiyan was not in a hurry at all and swayed slowly all the way. It was already half an hour later when he arrived at the palace.
Qin Jiyan smiled and patted Gu Qiancheng's head: "You are indeed my dear Guaguaicheng, very obedient."
He waited, waited for the emperor's grandson to be deposed, and then brought this place back!
He really didn't want to go into the palace to see the old emperor, he was afraid that he would take action if he couldn't help it!
When Qin Jiyan came to the main palace, the old emperor did not see him. Instead, he sent Eunuch Situ to deliver the order, "Your Highness, the Holy Father has spoken. Your Highness is arrogant and stubborn and will not obey the order. Go and kneel at the palace gate for two hours before coming back."
"You're so thick-skinned." Gu Qiancheng glared at Qin Jiyan angrily and funny. Qin Jiyan raised the corners of his lips and chuckled, "I understand, you can only do things but not say them."
Eunuch Situ's meaning is very clear. Qin Jiyan must follow the old emperor's wishes and kneel at the palace gate for two hours, otherwise he will never see the old emperor!
If Qin Jiyan really wanted a soldier to inspect his carriage and horses, he would have no shame staying in the capital.
When Qin Jiyan heard what Eunuch Situ said, he smiled instead of being angry, "What a commoner. Where is the emperor now? I want to see the emperor first."
He has a family, and he wants the best for his wife and children.
"I believe you." Gu Qiancheng closed his eyes and leaned against Qin Jiyan until he arrived at Prince Qin's palace.
Uh... Gu Qiancheng's head was covered with black lines. He looked left and right to make sure that the guards had not seen them, and then he swatted Qin Jiyan's hand away and said, "Don't touch anyone in front of others." She would be shy.
Seeing this, Gu Qiancheng walked to Qin Jiyan and held his hand, "Your Highness, you and I." The old emperor plotted against him and guarded against him, but she would not.
Ignoring the old emperor's will and forcing his way into the city, Qin Jiyan's move protected his own face and dignity, but it also gave others a handle.
"Your Highness..." Inexplicably, Gu Qiancheng's eyes became sore and tears almost flowed out. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and opened her eyes suddenly, forcing the tears back.
"He won't kill me." Qin Jiyan still had this confidence.
After Qin Jiyan sent Gu Qiancheng to his residence, he immediately returned to the main courtyard, washed and changed clothes, and entered the palace!
"That's enough. I can't stop making trouble any more." Gu Qiancheng looked angry, but looking at her flushed face, it was really not lethal at all.
"It doesn't matter, he won't be proud for a few days." Qin Jiyan said nonchalantly.
"I will definitely sit in that position, so you can rest assured." In the past, he would have been unwilling and disdainful to fight, but not now.
"But he can imprison you or destroy you. If you cannot sit on the throne according to your status, you will only die." If the old emperor wants to kill Qin Jiyan, there is no need to do it himself.
As soon as Qin Jiyan went out, he met the eunuch who announced the decree in the palace, "Your Royal Highness, the Emperor ordered you to enter the palace immediately." Although the eunuch who announced the decree was respectful, he lacked politeness. After finishing speaking, he stared at Qin Jiyan said that if Qin Jiyan didn't enter the palace immediately, he would use violence.
Disobedience!
Gu Qiancheng didn't speak anymore, but held Qin Jiyan's hand tightly and told him silently: No matter what happens, they still have each other!
"The emperor did it on purpose. I'm afraid... there are ministers coming into the palace to scare you now." After entering the city, Gu Qiancheng spoke.
"I know you have been prepared for a long time, but he is still the emperor now, and everything he does is justified. You should be careful." After entering the city, the smile on Gu Qiancheng's face faded a bit.
Of course, Qin Jiyan's smile was a sneer.
"No, it's - I only have you." Qin Jiyan held Gu Qiancheng's backhand and clasped his fingers together, "Qiancheng, I only have you." The entire royal family is related to him by blood, but they are their , he is him, he has never been an irrelevant person.
"It's not safe for the Gu family to stay in Prince Qin's Mansion." The old emperor would not kill him, but he would kill Gu Qiancheng. His relationship with Gu Qiancheng could no longer be hidden.
From ancient times to the present, changing dynasties has not been a simple matter. Qin Jiyan said it easily, but how could Gu Qiancheng not know the dangers involved? It's just...
A big hat was slapped down, Qin Jiyan really deserved a heavy punishment. But from ancient times to the present, which prince or grandson has to be inspected by soldiers when entering or leaving the city
He had originally planned to return to Beijing to take the throne, but the old emperor's move made him more determined to take the throne as soon as possible.
"You're stupid." Qin Jiyan flicked Gu Qiancheng's forehead, "You're crying, you're so stupid."
He knew clearly that the Eternal Life Sect had killed his father, but the old emperor still colluded with the Eternal Life Sect and even made trouble for the Eternal Life Sect. He had the urge to kill just thinking about Qin Jiyan.
"Your Majesty, do you want me to kneel at the entrance of the palace for two hours?" Qin Jiyan repeated in a calm tone, but when the guards outside the palace heard this, they all straightened their backs and tensed up, as if facing a formidable enemy.
The old emperor was very face-saving. He would never face him and be accused of killing his grandson.
There was only so much she could do to help.
"Are you shy? Is that okay, Queen?" Qin Jiyan turned sideways and whispered into Gu Qiancheng's ear.
Qin Jiyan closed his eyes and said firmly: "I will... strike first to gain the upper hand."
"Yes." Eunuch Situ was not affected and bowed slightly to show respect: "The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. The Holy Spirit said that His Highness disobeyed the decree that day and left the city privately. Now he ignores the Holy Will and refuses to accept inspection and forcibly enters the city. The city is full of dandies. If we don’t punish them, how can the people be angry?”
You can't help, and you can't hold back, right
"No trouble, no trouble. I will send you back to rest." Thinking of entering the palace to see the old emperor, the smile on Qin Jiyan's face faded a bit.
Due to Qin Jiyan's special status, naturally there was no need to notify everyone, but...
Qin Jiyan kept walking and walked directly past the eunuch who announced the decree. When the eunuch who announced the decree came to his senses, Qin Jiyan had already boarded the sedan.
When Gu Qiancheng got out of the car, he was dumbfounded when he saw a strange yet familiar scene. He turned to look at Qin Jiyan and asked in confusion: "Your Highness?" Why didn't you send her home? This was not in line with His Highness Qin's behavior!
Gu Qiancheng did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment before saying, "Okay, I'll stay at Prince Qin's Mansion." If staying here can make Qin Jiyan feel at ease, she will cooperate obediently.
"No matter what you do, I'll stand by your side. Even if I'm in trouble, I'm not afraid. There's just one thing..." Gu Qiancheng held Qin Jiyan's arm and nestled in his arms, "Your Highness, don't let me Worry."
"Your Highness will not see His Highness until he has knelt at the palace gate for two full hours." Eunuch Situ was neither humble nor overbearing. He firmly blocked the door and did not allow Qin Jiyan to enter.
The face of the eunuch who announced the decree changed slightly, but he thought that Qin Jiyan was still the grandson of the emperor, so he held it back.
