Chapter 310: The Emperor's Scepter

In the hall, the music was playing.

People were eating, drinking, dancing, and laughing.

The banquet was accompanied by a dance party, and the atmosphere was warm and cheerful, so that everyone was immersed.

Gu Qingshan poured the wine and pushed it to the young soldier.

Another drink for the two.

"Your Majesty seems to have been very happy lately." Gu Qingshan Road.

The soldier unbuttoned the top button of his collar and said relaxedly: "Yes, before coming to the palace, Your Majesty went into the mountains to hunt as usual and caught a lot of prey. ”

"Since then, His Majesty's mood has improved."

Gu Qingshan smiled: "You all went?" ”

The soldier said uncomfortably: "That hunt, Your Majesty didn't let us follow, saying that it was easy to scare away the prey when there were too many people, and there was no fun." ”

Gu Qingshan said: "Your Majesty never lets people follow you when hunting?" ”

"Not really, it's just the day before yesterday, he didn't let us follow on a whim."

"He's going to have a good time." Gu Qingshan Road.

"yes, come back with a smile on your face."

Gu Qingshan fell into thought.

"Hmph, what do you mean by not gambling with him, but chatting?" A female voice rang out.

The two turned their heads to look, but it was Her Royal Highness the Princess.

The princess glared at the officer angrily, turned and ran away.

"I'm sorry." Said the young soldier.

"It's fine." Gu Qingshan waved his hand generously.

The young soldier hurried to chase the princess.

"Hunting alone......" Gu Qingshan muttered in a low voice.

According to Empress Valona's hints, the emperor has become different from what he used to be.

For this reason, Varona stayed up all night playing cards with others, just to protect herself.

Once the emperor knows what she has seen, the emperor is bound to kill people.

The problem is in the hunting.

Gu Qingshan sat alone in the corner, taking a sip of wine.

When the ladies and ladies came and asked him to dance, he did not refuse.

Some celebrities talked to him, and he followed up with some interesting things.

He was fully integrated into this banquet and into Fuxi's high society.

He waited quietly for the banquet to end.

Late at night.

At the end of the song, the banquet came to an end.

Many people got so drunk that they were sent to their rooms to rest.

Gu Qingshan was arranged to rest in a room.

He stood still in the room, let out his thoughts, and swept the entire palace.

The young aristocrats found a small hall and continued to drink and chat.

The young officer and Princess Fuxi were also present.

They are energetic and have a lot of fun.

Gu Qingshan's divine thoughts crossed, and they didn't notice anything.

The council chamber of the palace is brightly lit.

Although it was late at night, the emperor was still discussing things with several close ministers.

In the chess and card room, the game continues.

The queen played a card: "Five cylinders." ”

A noble lady smiled and said, "Hu, card five cylinders." ”

The queen said: "I didn't expect to lose so much today." ”

At this time, Gu Qingshan's voice came.

The queen pushed the card, stood up and said, "I'm a little hungry, you go and see what snacks you have in the kitchen, pick some over, and everyone will continue to play after supper." ”

"Your Highness." Several ladies stood up and saluted.

This kind of trivial matter is generally instructed by the palace maid.

But the queen asked them to choose their own appetizing supper, which was also a thoughtful move.

Besides, playing cards is playing cards, and they dare not slack off in the slightest of etiquette and rules.

The three noble ladies were led by the maid of the palace and went down.

"Stand down, I'll be quiet for a while." The queen commanded.

The palace maids who were waiting for him retreated.

The chess room fell silent.

Gu Qingshan's voice appeared again.

"Your Highness, please tell me the details now."

The queen stared at the air and said quickly: "The day before yesterday, Your Majesty went hunting alone, and after coming back, the whole person will be different. ”

"I could tell at a glance that he was a little different, but he didn't have any injuries on his body, and his strength as a top powerhouse didn't change at all, so I didn't think it was anything."

"Does he know you're aware?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"I've been acting as usual, and I've never done anything out of the ordinary."

"But then, his words and deeds and ways of doing things became less and less like him, and I knew that something must be wrong with him."

"Even he was happy for me to play cards, because then I wouldn't find out more of his secrets, and I would be at peace with him for a while."

"Nothing to do for the time being? Do you think he's going to kill you? Gu Qingshan asked.

The queen's face showed determination, and she said, "When he is fully ready, he will definitely come and kill me." ”

"Why?"

"I, the pillow person, know a lot of his secrets, and I am his only flaw."

"So you think differently?"

"Yes, I just want to keep the empire stable, he wants more."

The queen continued: "I will be a hindrance to his ambitions. ”

Gu Qingshan suddenly asked, "Do you know where the Fuxi Crown is?" ”

The queen was stunned for a moment and said, "There are three crowns, which one are you talking about?" ”

"There is a gem from the universe in the middle."

"The crown and the emperor's scepter are all packed by me, and I naturally know."

"I want the jewel in the crown, you go and get the crown, and we'll go at once."

"Can you save me?" The queen asked.

Her expression was very calm: "Although I have heard Anna say that you are magical, but if you can't do it, don't try to save me easily." ”

"Otherwise, if you can't deal with it, you'll die too."

"Do you care if I live or die?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"If there is no hope, I hope I am the only one who dies."

The queen was very calm and seemed to have been thinking maturely for a long time.

"Why?"

"If you die, it will have a very serious impact on Anna, and she is now at the most critical moment, and there must be no fault in her mood." Queen's Road.

"She's the last hope for our Medici family."

"So if you're not sure, don't care about my life or death, find a chance to leave, and tell her the truth later."

Gu Qingshan was in awe.

"As long as I want to save you, then no one can stop me." He said.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and someone outside the door whispered a report.

"Come in."

Two palace maids came in and curtsied, "Supper has been arranged, and the three ladies are waiting for you." ”

The queen said: "I'm not hungry suddenly, let them eat, and come back to play cards after eating." ”

"Yes."

The two palace maids glanced at each other and withdrew.

The queen waited for a while, got up, and went out through another door.

She kept walking, eventually entering a room.

"Stand down." Queen's Road.

"Yes, Your Highness." Two palace guards said.

They saluted, cautiously withdrew, and closed the door.

The queen walked over to the wall and opened a dark compartment.

The Fuxi crown, inlaid with the blood of the sun and the moon, lay quietly in the dark grid.

Next to the crown, there is a scepter.

The queen looked at the scepter in surprise, a hint of fear in her eyes.

The scepter of the Emperor of the Fuxi Empire, cast from pure gold, has a human head carved on the head, and the human head makes a staring expression forward.

This human head belonged to the founding emperor of the Fuxi Empire.

When the Founding Emperor died, he demanded that his entire head be incorporated into a scepter, wrapped in gold on the outside, and carved into a scepter to pass on to successive kings of the empire.

This means that although he is gone, he is still watching his children and grandchildren to see if they are qualified as kings.

Now the golden scepter is still there, but the head of the Founding Emperor is missing.

"Do you know about this?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"I don't know." Queen's Road.

"Could it be that the emperor took it without telling you?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"I've been arranging this stuff all along, he-"

The queen controlled her emotions and took the crown out.

She struggled not to look at the scepter.

After all, this thing is too weird.

Why not take the entire scepter, but only the head of the founding emperor?
