After an extremely long and tossing night, the last awake person in Fengyuan fell into a deep sleep.
The crescent moon climbed out of the clouds and echoed the stars. The hot summer was gradually coming to an end, and even the noisy cicadas were much weaker.
This time, everyone slept deeply.
The next day, a little bit of fish maw white appeared in the east, and Shengdu, who was sleeping, woke up in the morning light.
The people of Fengyuan started a busy day.
The first to wake up was the small headroom.
He has been kept by his bad brother-in-law as a sidekick for a while now, and he can't move in with Gu Jiao openly. Therefore, he will contribute a wave of his own waking up every morning to express his strong dissatisfaction.
But this morning, when he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on a strange little bed.
Huh
He got up, jumped out of bed, and pushed the room away.
Whoa whoa whoa!
It is the yard of the imperial government!
He slept in the Guogong Mansion last night!
He is with Jiaojiao!
"Jiao—uh—"
The little guy rushed over to look for Gu Jiao, but before he broke into Gu Jiao's house, he was snatched away by a tall figure.
On the other hand, the monarch also slowly woke up, and there was still a little medicinal effect of cartilage powder in his body, which caused the whole person to be still a little weak and weak.
I don't know if it was his illusion, except for the soreness and softness, he felt a little pain all over his body.
The monarch frowned, sat up with great difficulty, held his forehead with one hand and dizzy for a while, suddenly felt something was wrong, he touched his head, and again, it was gone!
His wig is gone!
Since the monarch was cut into a bald scoop by Han Ye, he couldn't afford to lose this person. He would wear a wig when he travels, and only take it off when he sleeps.
When he went to see Han in the cold palace, he was suddenly knocked unconscious by Han, and then he woke up in the cellar with his "hair" still there.
cellar-
By the way, he was locked in the cellar by the Han family—
How can there be such a strong light in the cellar
This is not a cellar!
What the hell is Han Shi doing again!
crunch —
The door was pushed open, and Zhang Dequan walked in with a pot of cool tea.
The monarch raised his sore arm and opened the curtain, and saw Zhang Dequan who was putting tea on the table.
He frowned: "Why are you here? Did you even betray me!"
Zhang Dequan was taken aback by the monarch's sudden swearing. If it weren't for his many years of experience as a father-in-law, he would have been frightened by the teapot in his hand.
He settled down, came to the bed and bowed to the king, and said happily, "Your Majesty, are you awake?"
"Where's the poisonous woman from the Han family!" The king asked coldly.
"Huh?" Zhang Dequan was stunned, thinking that the monarch was asking about Han's whereabouts and fate, he quickly replied, "Han is in the cold palace."
"Isn't it cold here..." The monarch was halfway through speaking, when he suddenly realized what Zhang Dequan was saying, and he frowned, "Where is this?"
Zhang Dequan replied, "Your Majesty, this is the Duke's Mansion."
Seeing the monarch looking bewildered, Zhang Dequan escaped from the palace and reported to the monarch that he had come to the Duke's Mansion to seek help from Mr. Xiao: "...Thanks to His Highness the eldest grandson and Mr. Xiao this time, it was them. I wanted to rescue His Majesty from the cold palace."
The king was really shocked.
He didn't expect that the people who saved him from the tiger's mouth were the weakest grandson and Xiao Liulang, who was the most disliked in daily life.
It seems that it really should be the sentence - people can't look at their faces.
The king asked, "Where are they?"
Zhang Dequan replied, "I live in this yard as well. I struggled too late yesterday. I think I'm exhausted. I haven't woken up yet. Do you want the servants to call them?"
The king waved his hand: "Forget it, let them sleep."
Zhang Dequan smiled: "Yes."
"Help me up and wait for me to change."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Zhang Dequan helped the monarch out of bed, and the monarch covered his dragon crotch and frowned strangely.
Why does his dragon's butt hurt so much, has he been kicked
After thinking about it, it was impossible. He is the king of a country, and he is the current sage. Who would dare to kick his ass
"His-"
It hurts.
The monarch's "hair" was lost when he fled last night. As for whether it was lost when he was going through the dog's hole or when he was carried back to the National Teacher's Hall by Gu Chengfeng, no one can remember.
He did have spares, but unfortunately it was all in the palace, so Zhang Dequan had to find a bamboo hat.
As soon as the monarch put on the hat, Duke An Guo came over in a wheelchair.
Zhang Dequan glanced at the courtyard and said, "Your Majesty, it's Duke Ang."
"Come to greet me so early, okay, let him come in." Although the monarch has always been against Duke Ang, but for the sake of Duke Ang's loyalty this time, he should give him a chance to make a contribution. .
Unexpectedly, Zhang Dequan opened the door with a smile, but An Guogong's wheelchair passed directly through the door.
King: "..."
Zhang Dequan: "..."
An Guogong came to accompany Gu Jiao for breakfast, but found that Gu Jiao was not awake, so he asked the servant to push the wheelchair back, and he would come back later.
Zhang Dequan saw that Duke Ang's wheelchair turned back, and said to the monarch, "Come on! Just now, Duke Ang must have found the wrong house!"
The king straightened his expression, trying not to let the hat affect his imperial aura.
Then he watched An Guogong's wheelchair hit him again and passed by...
The monarch looked at Zhang Dequan angrily.
Zhang De smiled sheepishly.
It would be fine if it was just Duke Ang, but then people in the yard woke up one after another, and no one came over to greet the monarch!
The king's face became very ugly.
Zhang Dequan sneered and said: "You are traveling in a micro-clothing. They don't know about your stay, and they don't even know you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Empress Dowager Zhuang, who was sitting under the begonia tree and eating melon seeds, glanced at the monarch in the room and asked the little maid beside her, "Hey, does your monarch of Dayan have no hair? Why is he still wearing it while sitting in the room? A hat?"
The king clenched his fists.
Zhang Dequan, I want to kill you!
-
The aunt and his party learned about what happened last night from Gu Chengfeng's mouth when they were having dinner in the main room this morning.
Everyone is calm.
Empress Dowager Zhuang: Men are big hooves.
Old sacrifice wine: about the same age, not as much hair as me.
Nan Shi Niang: I just invented a poison, and I want to find someone to test it.
Master Lu: The emperor does not have a good thing.
…
Gu Jiao didn't have to go to the military camp today, she could have slept until the sun rose, but she was awakened by the movement in the yard just after the hour.
It wasn't Long Yi and Xiao Jingkong, or Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun, but Steward Zheng hurried in and shouted, "Your Highness is not good! Something big has happened!"
It turned out that after the monarch was taken away last night, Han was worried that they would fight back, so he came up with a countermeasure overnight, and at great risk, read out the imperial edict to restore the throne of Shangguan Qi in the early morning today.
Not only that, he also ordered the arrest of the third princess, Shangguan Yan, and ordered the Imperial Commander's Mansion and the Imperial Forest Army to block the Palace of the Imperial Master.
The reason is that the third princess, Shangguan Yan, was bewitched by the National Teacher Hall, and she acted unfaithful and unfilial to the monarch, and put the blame on the former prince. Temple's conspiracy.
The assassin's accomplices have been arrested and confessed to their crimes, and also said that the National Teacher Hall has been thinking about Shangguan Qing's treatment for all these years, and secretly communicated with Shangguan Yan.
The reason why Shangguan Yan can return to Shengdu is also a one-step plan for both parties.
The assassins in the Prince's Mansion were disguised by the dead men of the National Teacher's Hall, and the imperial mausoleum was also damaged by the people of the National Teacher's Hall.
After Shangguan Yan returned to Shengdu, he was injured again and again, all of which were bitter tactics, in order to win the monarch's pity and sympathy.
If it wasn't for the fact that the monarch did not see Shangguan Yan yesterday due to his busy business, Shangguan Yan became suspicious and ordered his men to enter the palace to secretly inquire about the monarch's movements, the monarch might not have discovered this secret.
And the most important thing is, according to the account of the dead man, Shangguan Yan still has a hole card in his hand that no one knows.
This trump card is Shangguan Yan's biggest secret, and even he, a close dead man, has no way of knowing it.
But what is certain is that Shangguan Yan came prepared this time, and she will do whatever she can to regain what she lost.
When Gu Jiao heard this, she couldn't help but slapped Concubine Han.
The story was well-founded, and she almost believed it.
This woman really needs to be ambitious and have the guts.
Instead of waiting for the real king to enter the palace to expose her, it is better for her to do it better.
In this way, even if the real monarch returns to the palace, she can say - "Shangguanyan, is this your trump card? For the sake of the throne, you actually found someone to pretend to be the monarch?"
The smartest step in the whole plan is not to "expose" Shangguan Yan's ambitions, but to make the National Teacher Hall no longer clean.
Originally, the National Teacher Hall was the most respected existence by the monarch, and the National Teacher was the most qualified person to identify the true and false monarchs, but now the National Teacher has become Shangguan Yan's "partner" conspiring to rebel, and his words are still How much credibility is left
The family went to Fengyuan's study.
Except for children.
-Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun are listed as children.
With a dark face, Gu Yan returned to his room with Gu Xiaoshun.
As soon as Steward Zheng left, they both lay on the wall together.
In the study, my aunt and Lao Jijiu sat on the main seat, Nan Shi Niang and Lu Shifu sat on the left side of the aunt, and An Guogong, Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng sat on the right side of the aunt.
Gu Chengfeng didn't sit down, he frowned, pacing up and down the room holding his chin.
He wondered: "I just don't understand. Since the Han family has even regained her crown, why didn't she clear her own grievances and make a queen? Anyway, the monarch is in hand, and I have the imperial decree!"
Gu Jiao thought for a while and said, "Han shi thought that Concubine Wang Xian did the trick of loathing victory. If she wanted to clear her grievance, she would have to take Concubine Wang Xian, and if she wanted to be sealed, she would be the enemy of the entire harem. She doesn't have the energy for now. ."
Xiao Heng nodded in agreement: "Besides, the monarch in her hands is fake after all, no matter how desperate she is, she will always be a little guilty. Resetting the prince is a dangerous move, she needs to observe the reaction of the court, no one Doubt, she will boldly take the next step."
Gu Chengfeng asked, "Are there any doubts in the courtroom?"
Xiao Heng shook his head: "It happened so suddenly, everyone should not have reacted to it yet. When you go back and close the door and think about it, maybe someone will notice something is wrong. It's just that the monarch is always moody, and he makes any absurd decision. , no one dares to object.”
Gu Chengfeng felt that his brain was not enough: "Since this is the case, why is the Han family so careful? Let the fake king kill us all!"
Xiao Heng said: "Because we have a real monarch in our hands, this is always a threat to the Han family. What she is doing today is not only testing the courtiers, but also testing us. She wants to see what we will do. ."
Gu Chengfeng snorted, seemingly understanding but not understanding: "Then what are we going to do?"
Master Lu compared his hand with a knife: "Rush into the palace! Kill the fake monarch!"
Xiao Heng shook his head again: "I can't kill it."
Up to now, it is impossible for the Han family not to take precautions. The Imperial Forest Army and the Commander's Mansion must have been on guard for a long time. Even if they have a master like Long Yi, it is impossible to destroy an entire army.
The Han family was just waiting for them to throw themselves into the net.
Master Lu scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks: "You can't even kill them, do you want to confront them in court? But who would believe that the monarch in our hands is real? I'm not saying, the third princess's reputation is really not good, the crown prince is so cunning and secretive. Acting wickedly and pretending to be a human being, she is highly respected among the people... On the other hand, the third princess is a habitual offender of treason, so the monarch she brought is more like a fake..."
This move by Han's is really too direct to the point, and there is almost no place to start.
Gu Chengfeng said angrily: "If the Xuanyuan family is still there, why would there be so much trouble? He directly led Xuanyuan's army into the palace, captured the fake monarch, and beheaded him! After all, the monarch himself is to blame! There is no need for the Xuanyuan family, they have to support the Han family, the Nangong family, this family and that family! In the end, something goes wrong, I want to see which one of the eleventh great family will stand up to help him! Which one trusts him again!"
Under the corridor, near the door, the monarch's face turned blue and red.
Zhang Dequan didn't dare to let go.
He didn't expect to hear such outrageous words.
Although they are all facts, it is precisely because of this that they poke at the center of the nest.
If the Xuanyuan family was still standing in the capital, where would these evil spirits be born
Xuanyuan dares to do what others dare not do.
The Xuanyuan family dared to bear the crime that others dared not bear.
Xuanyuan Li would never mistake him, as long as he said a word, Xuanyuan Li would believe him.
After all, he destroyed his most solid shield.
"Your Majesty..."
Zhang Dequan opened his mouth and let out a low voice, but he didn't know how to comfort His Majesty.
The king didn't say a word, turned around slowly, and silently returned to his room.
Zhang Dequan looked at the back of the monarch. When he was betrayed by his own flesh and blood and the people next to him, His Majesty had never been so decadent, but just remembering the moment of Xuanyuan's family, His Majesty seemed to have experienced a lot of vicissitudes.
The only Xuanyuan family who could protect you was killed by you.
Your Majesty, do you regret it
study.
Gu Chengfeng is still impassionedly scolding Dayan Guojun for being blind-eyed and self-rewarding.
Auntie nibbled a melon seed and said lightly: "Okay, everyone is gone, don't talk, it's noisy."
"Let's go?" Gu Chengfeng sat down on the stool and took a long breath, "After talking so much, I'm exhausted!"
The last day of the month, don't waste your monthly pass
