Chapter 986: Sin deserves death
"Mother, please mourn! At present, the most important thing is to take care of the phoenix. Gu Chengyubian and the queen were vain, but they were a little anxious in their hearts.
There was too much chaos in the palace before, and at this moment he suddenly remembered that the Tianji Daoist was recommended by Xia Qing, and he had to remind the prince that Xia Qing had bad intentions and had to take people down immediately.
There was something in his heart, and he naturally had a little impatience with the queen's temptation. But he is the queen, how dare he show his dissatisfaction?
"Gu Shaoqing, you are still young. If you do your best to assist the prince, the prince will not treat you badly in the future. ”
The queen saw that Gu Chengyu didn't answer the phone, and her face was a little impatient.
"Niangniang's words are serious, as a courtier, assisting the emperor is within the responsibility of Weichen!"
The queen snorted coldly, "Gu Shaoqing, let's not talk darkly." This palace asks you, what did the emperor say to you before he died? Or did the emperor give you something important? ”
The queen and the emperor have been married for decades and know the character of the person next to the pillow very well. The emperor is the best at keeping his hands behind, and he often catches people off guard.
Before, because of the Danshu iron coupon, the emperor made his son the crown prince, and this matter was coerced by her. Ke'er is a son-in-law, and she should be the prince.
She doesn't want to know who the emperor's choice for the crown prince is, as long as the final crown prince is a son, it will be enough.
But the emperor summoned Gu Chengyu alone before he died, who knows if Gu Chengyu will have a handle that is not conducive to her and her son?
She couldn't let herself and her son be held in the hands of a courtier, which would keep her awake at night.
The emperor is really confused, he actually takes a fourth-grade official so seriously. The child has a good temperament, but he doesn't please the emperor.
The more the queen thought about it, the more angry she became, and her heart was full of resentment towards the emperor.
The queen's eyes were staring at Gu Chengyu, and the cruel gaze was condensed on him, Gu Chengyu had already felt the pressure.
Before, he thought that the queen and the crown prince would ask, after all, the emperor summoned him alone, and he must have explained something.
It is not easy to find excuses to prevaricate the past. Now that the middle palace and the crown prince are dominant, can he disobey the queen's will?
"! The emperor summoned Weichen alone, but only explained some things in the court, and ordered Weichen to do his best to assist the new emperor. ”
Gu Chengyu's mouth was bitter, but the emperor had found him a big trouble. The box was a hot potato, and he still didn't know what its contents were, so he was troubled by the queen and the crown prince.
What would he do if there was something great that was said? The emperor died, and before the new emperor ascended the throne, it was not his pleasure to be the first bird.
Who knows who will end up on this throne? The vassal king is going to Beijing to mourn, will King Jing and King Gong have no change?
The third prince who has become a monk, although he sent someone to keep an eye on it, so far, there is nothing unusual, but who knows if he is really like a water?
If something happens in the capital, can the prince still sit firmly in Diaoyutai?
No, the time has not yet come, we have to wait.
"Humph!" The queen patted the armrest of the rose chair and hated it in her heart.
"Gu Shaoqing, those who know the times are Junjie! The emperor has passed away, what do you want if you don't surrender to the prince? ”
The queen's face was already a little angry, this Gu Chengyu just didn't know what to do. The crown prince will ascend the throne as the emperor, Gu Chengyu is not sincere, do you still expect the prince to reuse him?
If he doesn't say the emperor's last words today, then let his son find a mistake and demote him to a county in a poor mountain and bad water.
This person also thinks too highly of himself, but don't think that Gu Chengyu would not be able to do it without him in the court.
What if the other party is capable? Wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne and add Enke to take the scholars, but still worry about not being able to find an official without talent?
Gu Chengyu felt the malice that the queen exuded towards him, and it seemed that the queen was already very dissatisfied with him.
"Qi Yu Niangniang, the emperor really has something to tell Weichen to do before he dies!" As soon as Gu Chengyu's mind moved, his face showed a look of embarrassment.
"Oh? What is it? The queen breathed a sigh of relief, and leaned forward, her face showing a little urgency.
She stirred the handkerchief in her hand together, and Gu Chengyu could sense her nervousness.
"The emperor explained to the ...... of the ministers"
Gu Chengyu paused, and when the queen's willow eyebrows were upside down and she was about to scold, she said: "The emperor is afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will have a grudge against the three princes, and he is unwilling to spare the lives of the three princes, so he specially ordered Weichen to save the lives of the three princes." ”
When the queen heard this, her face sank like water, she gritted her teeth and said, "The emperor doesn't believe in the palace and the prince? Knowing that cheap life, what is the use of this palace? A dog, raised and raised, is it worth being the emperor to plan for him again and again? ”
Gu Chengyu was relieved to see that the queen was furious. Successfully provoke the queen's anger and make her lose her mind, which is in his favor.
It's just that after the emperor's death, the queen mother was a lot more rampant than before. This is to see that the crown prince is about to succeed to the throne, and she will also become the queen mother?
That's right, no matter who is the new emperor, she will become the most honorable person in the world. However, whether you live long or not depends on who succeeds to the throne.
After a while, the queen calmed down, and then she turned her suspicious gaze to Gu Chengyu again.
"Before the emperor died, he only explained this matter?"
Gu Chengyu's heart sank, and the queen was not easy to fool.
"Actually, there is one more thing......"
The crown prince was discussing the state funeral with the priest of the Ministry of Rites, when he suddenly heard a cry from behind.
"Your Majesty, the old minister is late!"
When he raised his eyes and saw that it was Xia Qing, his face couldn't help but sink. This old horseman, as the first assistant, has been dead for an hour, and he has not appeared until now.
Xia Qing walked past the hundred officials, and when he arrived in front of the prince, he immediately knelt down.
The prince couldn't help frowning when he saw that his face was pale, his whole body trembled, and he couldn't even support himself when he knelt.
Xia Qing looked up at the prince, and the prince suddenly found that there was a trace of a rope between the other party's neck, and the bruise was very obvious.
"Your Highness, the old minister is guilty! Ashamed of the trust of the emperor and His Royal Highness, he wanted to commit suicide to apologize, but he was helplessly rescued by his family. Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to allow the old ministers to repent to the emperor, and then if they want to kill or chop, they should be handed down by His Royal Highness. ”
The prince raised his eyebrows, and wanted to ask Xia Qing which one he was singing. But he suddenly thought that the head of the Tianji Dao was recommended by this person to his father.
There was a lot of chaos in the palace before, but he forgot about it. Thinking like this, the prince was furious.
The officials below all looked at each other, they had just known the cause of the emperor's death. It is ridiculous that the emperor actually took the poison of the Tianji Daoist for more than ten years.
"You really deserve to die, my father died because he took the poison of the Tianji Dao Chief. Daoist Tianji was recommended by you, you say! Are you in the same league as Daoist Tianji? You have wolf ambitions for Dayan and want to murder my Dayan royal family, is it a fine work sent by Daxing? ”
The prince pointed at Xia Qing, looked excited, and shouted angrily.
