Concubine Qin let go of Gong Lingyu, got up and came to Gu Qianxue, and stretched out her hand to help Gu Qianxue up, "Son, you have sneaked into Yongxian Palace many times, and now we are face to face, I just want to ask you a question, do you still wish?" Do you accept me?"
"Huh?" For a while, Gu Qianxue still didn't understand.
"Even though you once said that you don't hate me or blame me, I'm afraid you won't accept me in the future." Concubine Qin sighed deeply, "I... can't help you anyway."
Gu Qianxue finally understood, "Concubine Qin, don't say that. When it comes to guilt, I feel extremely guilty towards you. If Ling Feng hadn't gone to save me back then, maybe he would have stayed by your side."
Concubine Qin smiled wryly and shook her head, "My child, you are wrong, thanks to Mi'er not being here, otherwise the former emperor would die, I'm afraid Mi'er would be in danger. Do you know what I was looking forward to day and night in the palace at that time? ?”
"... what?" Gu Qianxue asked. Concubine Qin said, "I just hope that Yu'er won't come back. That child has suffered enough. He has not been protected by his mother since he was a child, but in turn protects me who is useless. Then he is dragged back by me constantly. Enough... really Enough is enough, I just hoped that he could get real freedom to do what he wanted to do,
Go where he wants to go. "
Gu Qianxue understood, "But you should also know that he will not really give up on you. If he could really let go, he would have let go long ago, and can't wait until today." Concubine Qin nodded, "Yes, that's why you sneaked into Yongxian back then. Gong, I’m not surprised.” As he said, he turned to look at Gong Lingyu who was still kneeling on the ground, “On the way to Guandong City, I was surprised when I heard that Prince Zhao was Fian’er. How do you plan? I plan to continue using it
Can Zhao Shizi's identity survive? "
Gong Lingyu sneered, then got up, "Mother, the gate of Guandong City has been closed today."
Concubine Qin was puzzled, "Yeah, what's the matter?"
"Not open tomorrow."
"ah?"
Gu Qianxue continued, "Starting tomorrow, the Guandong City will take two days to rectify, and all the influencers of all parties in the Guandong City will be dug out, and then it will take another two days to recruit troops, and then the battle will begin. "
Concubine Qin and Nanny Shen were taken aback, "Let's... start fighting?"
Gong Lingyao laughed loudly, and then his face was ferocious, "Aside from fighting, is there any other way? Let's not talk about whether I want revenge, but just say, do you think Gong Lingyao will save us? Marshal Zhao?"
Concubine Qin frowned, and slowly shook her head, "No, Mier, Qianxue, I support you, I will live and die with you."
Mother Shen thought of Eunuch Shao who was executed by Ling Chi, and gritted her teeth with hatred, "Those guys with beast faces!"
But at this moment, there was a sound outside the door, followed by an old woman shouting outside, "Qianxue...is it Qianxue? Qianxue..."
Gu Qianxue recognized that it was Zheng's voice.
She immediately turned around and ran out, "Grandma!?"
The person who came was none other than Mrs. Zheng.
Mrs. Zheng froze for a moment when she saw Gu Qianxue, then continued to call into the room, "Qianxue, where are you, Qianxue?"
Gu Qianxue laughed, "Grandmother, I am here. I have taken the disguise medicine, so my appearance has changed. Listen to my voice carefully."
Gu Qingze also stepped forward at this time, staring at Gu Qianxue, and tremblingly said after a long while, "Mother, she... I'm afraid it's Qianxue."
After confirming that it was Gu Qianxue, Zheng burst into tears, "Qianxue, you bad boy, where did you go, why don't you ignore me and your father, you are not filial!"
Afterwards, Gong Lingyan, who was driven out, heard Zheng's accusation, and his eyes were dark.
For such a long time, Gu Qianxue has repeatedly been involved in danger, and his life and death are uncertain. Instead of caring about Gu Qianxue, Mrs. Zheng accused him of being unfilial, which is really selfish and shameless.
Gu Qingze guessed that the man behind Gu Qianxue was Gong Lingyan, and he also saw the murderous look in his eyes, so he quickly pulled Zheng back, "Don't talk about it, mother, Qianxue also has Qianxue's difficulties. If Qianxue is safe, she won't ignore her." us."
Gong Lingyu snorted coldly, "Who cares about you? Do you know..."
Before she could speak, Gu Qianxue turned her head, gave a cold stare, and immediately swallowed back the rest of her words.
Gu Qianxue turned around and comforted Zheng Shi softly, "Grandmother is scared, right? Don't be afraid, there will be more things to scare you later."
Zheng was taken aback, "Huh?"
Gu Qianxue smiled sweeter, "Starting tomorrow, we will rebel."
Zheng's eyes turned white, and he passed out directly.
Gu Qianxue caught her, carried Zheng to the room, and placed her on the bed.
Gu Qingze also had a pale complexion, and his figure was so thin that he almost lost his shape. He shook his head as if he was about to fall, "Qian...Qianxue, you...are you kidding me?"
Gong Lingyu said seriously, "I'm not kidding."
Gu Qingze's eyes also went dark, and he leaned on the chair tremblingly and sat down.
Even though he used to be the second-rank official, in fact he was cowardly and mediocre and did nothing. He was able to climb up because of the recommendation of Marshal Zhao and other military officers, and on the other hand, because the former emperor liked such unambitious and threatening officials.
It took Gu Qingze a long time to digest this "rebellion". He took a deep breath and tried to keep his voice steady so as not to be ashamed, "Okay, rebellion is rebellion. Anyway, advancing or retreating is death, it's better to fight him, but before that... "The voice paused, more embarrassing, "Where's your mother?"
When Gu Qianxue heard that Gu Qingze was still thinking about Mrs. Zhao, she felt much more at ease, "My mother has been treated by my grandmother, and now her condition has improved a lot. I will arrange for you to meet each other later, but during the war, I am afraid that you and my grandmother will be together. House arrest, I hope you understand."
Gu Qingze shook his head, "It's okay, as long as your mother and younger brother are okay, as your father is a civil servant, he doesn't actually have much ability. I'm afraid I can't help you with your great cause. I just want to find a house Just live in peace."
As soon as Gu Qingze looked up, he saw Concubine Qin, and hurriedly stood up and knelt down to salute.
Concubine Qin smiled and said, "Don't be too polite to your father-in-law. From now on, you will not be the Minister of Rites and I will not be a concubine in the harem. Let us be ordinary people and parents."
Gu Qingze nodded, "Since the empress has made such a decision, it's better to be obedient than to be respectful."
Afterwards, the room fell into an eerie silence. Concubine Qin and Gu Qingze looked at Gong Lingyu together, feeling that he had something important to announce.
After a while, Gong Lingyan lifted his robe and knelt in front of Concubine Qin and Gu Qingze, "The situation is urgent now, and I have something to ask my mother and Mrs. Gu. This matter must be settled before the war begins."
Concubine Qin and Gu Qingze saw Gong Lingyu's seriousness, and hurriedly said, "What's the matter? But it's okay to say."
Gong Lingyu raised her head and smiled, "I hope you two can marry Qianxue and me."
"Uh..." Gu Qianxue was suddenly embarrassed, her cheeks flushed, "Ling Yan, stop making trouble, now is not the time for children's affair, war is more important."
Although the two got married once, but the previous time, Gu Qianxue didn't feel this kind of shyness at all.
Gu Qingze said, "No problem, don't worry, my lord."
Concubine Qin also smiled and said, "Before you reconciled, now you really should pay homage again."
Gong Lingyu got up, "From now on, father-in-law don't call me the prince, just call me Zicang. From now on, the name Gong Lingyu will not be used anymore. My name is Zhao Zicang."
Concubine Qin quickly figured out the reason, and nodded, "That's right, let's call him Zhao Zicang."
"The marriage?" Gong Lingyan's eyes lit up.
Concubine Qin laughed and said, "Don't worry, although Qianxue's father is here, Marshal Zhao has to agree, right?"
But at this moment, Marshal Zhao's hearty laughter came from the door, "I agree, I agree, of course I agree, Ling Yan is someone I like."
Gu Qingze has a question, "Wait, what identity do you use to get married? The prince uses the identity of Zhao Shizi, what about you, Qianxue?"
Gu Qianxue raised her eyebrows, "Of course I will use my original identity. Zhao Zicang is my cousin. Isn't it popular these days that cousins and cousins are close relatives?"
"This... seems to be the same reason." Gu Qingze murmured, "But... what about the identity of the prince?"
"Gong Ling is dead," Gong Ling said, turning to Concubine Qin, "The same is true for Concubine Qin, mother, I'm afraid we won't be able to reveal the relationship between mother and child in the future."
Concubine Qin sighed, "After going through such ups and downs, I don't care about the false name. As long as you are safe, I will be satisfied."
Gu Qingze still didn't turn the corner, "Wait, I mean, you disguised yourself to deceive the emperor and the people. Everyone in the world knows the identity of Qianxue and the prince. If you just get married like this, will it attract suspicion?"
"Doubt is doubt," Gong Lingyan said bluntly, "Winners and losers, if we lose, we can be labeled by them even if we are flawless; if we win, what is our identity, does it matter?"
Gu Qingze thought for a while, and the same thing happened, so he kept silent.
Marshal Zhao said with a smile, "When does Zicang want to get married?"
Gong Lingyu's eyes lit up, "Tomorrow."
Gu Qianxue was taken aback, "Are you crazy, in such a hurry?" She wasn't ready yet...
Gong Lingyan frowned and nodded, "You're right, I'm really sorry for being so hasty, so let's prepare for another day, and we will get married in two days."
Seeing that Gu Qianxue wanted to refute again, Gong Lingyan's face was firm, "We can't discuss it any more, tomorrow or the day after, you choose."
"..." Gu Qianxue was speechless, "Then... the day after tomorrow."
So, the marriage was finalized like this.
the second day.
As Gong Lingyan said, the gate of Guandong City was not opened, and all the eyeliners inside and outside the marshal's mansion, and inside and outside the city of Guandong City were arrested and tortured for a whole day.
Outside the Kanto City, they also took a start to search for the eyeliner and secretly arranged, and everything went according to the plan in an orderly manner.
But in fact, these actions are not abrupt, and preparations have been started a long time ago, and the foreshadowing has been laid.
In almost a day, the prison in Guandong City was full of people, and all those who committed serious crimes or committed crimes were directly pulled out and beheaded.
There is a high platform to the west of the prison in Guandong City, which is the place where the public beheading is performed.
While the officials told about the actions of these eyeliners, they denounced the emperor's stupidity and the persecution of Marshal Zhao, including the previous turmoil in the Guandong City and the invasion of the Tianyi Sect, which were also planned by the prince at that time and the emperor now.
The people in Guandong City thought of the destruction of their homes and the persecution of their beloved marshal, and they were angry and cursed the current emperor. The atmosphere in the whole city, let alone Marshal Zhao said to rebel, even the common people shouted to rebel.
