Concubine Ling gave a deep salute again, put the bottle containing the Hundred Flowers Brew in front of Gu Ju's table with her own hands, and then turned around to say goodbye to Xu Zhengyuan, and slowly withdrew from the gate of the Qinzheng Palace.

Gu Juan opened the cap of the bottle and took a deep breath, suddenly squinted his eyes quite enjoyably, and then directly poured a big sip on the bottle.

"Sure enough, it's good wine!"

He burped suddenly, seeing that Concubine Ling had already left the palace gate and was about to disappear from his sight, but he suddenly remembered something, and immediately opened his mouth and called her back.

"Just now I was only concerned with tasting wine, but I forgot a very important thing, and I had to bother my mother to come back in the snow again. ”

"Although this matter can be played to His Majesty alone, but Niangniang is the biological mother of His Royal Highness after all, so it is better to let you know after thinking about it. ”

After a pause, Gu Juan looked at Xu Zhengyuan, who had just opened his eyes, and said slowly after thinking, "In my opinion, the feng shui of the Dingwang Mansion is very poor, and it is easy to attract the invasion of demons and evil things, so he can't live in this house, so I can only live in it." ”

Xu Zhengyuan didn't think about it for too long, so he said directly, "Then let Dingbian move out of his current mansion and find another place for him to live." ”

"Besides, does King Zhennan have any other problems that I need to help solve?"

Gu Juan showed a hint of a smile, "No, but Your Majesty summoned the minister late at night this time, wouldn't it just want to say a few words to the minister and have another bar." ”

"I invited Gu Aiqing to come this time, and I really have something to discuss. Xu Zhengyuan took off the hat he had been wearing on his head, and his black hair was already half gray.

"I don't think I'm the king of a dead country, but now when I look at the world, I already show the face of a dead country. ”

He took a sip from his wine glass, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and said, "Although I have never wanted to admit it, I have to be forced to admit that today's imperial court has completely lost control of the entire situation, whether it is the center or the prefectures and counties below, it is just barely maintaining. ”

"And the real situation is even worse than what I have seen and thought, especially since the beginning of winter last year, a heavy snowfall has continued, I don't know how many people have been cut off from living in the coming year, coupled with the increasing number of strange incidents, the smoke in the south and the north, and rebellions everywhere in the inner realm, the entire Great Wei has already been in a dangerous juncture of storms and storms, and the building is about to collapse......

"But there is nothing I can do about all this, but to watch the situation deteriorate day by day, until the whole country is plunged into the darkness of collapse and disintegration. ”

Gu Juan was silent, Xu Zhengyuan said that he had thought about these problems a long time ago, but he also couldn't find an effective way to solve the problem.

If it is just that the wolf clan in the north is going south, and the forces in the southern wilderness are going north, and the Great Wei gathers elite forces and sends troops to deal with all the masters who have gathered it, it does not mean that there is no chance of victory.

However, in the face of this kind of drastic change in heaven and earth, which can be called a natural disaster, not to mention individuals, even if it is a human race composed of all people, there is not much ability to resist.

Xu Zhengyuan drank one glass after another, his face had already begun to redden, but his eyes became brighter and brighter, "Now my will and the official documents of the various ministries of the imperial court have been difficult to convey to other places outside of a few prefectures around the capital, and even if it is close to the capital, there is already an undercurrent, and I don't know when something will happen, the only consolation is that the military town and battalion guarding the capital are still stable and can support it for many days, but as the changes in heaven and earth continue, I don't know how it will develop in the future." ”

Gu Juan sighed and said, "What does Your Majesty need me to do?"

Xu Zhengyuan didn't directly pick it out, but got up and came to the door of the Qinzheng Palace, looked up at the dark night sky, and was silent for a long time before he said, "When I first discovered the clues of the strange incident, I allowed the monks outside the Fang to enter the court, secretly set up the Strange Opinion Division, took refuge under the command of Ti Qi, and began to investigate all kinds of strange incidents that had just sprouted, and compiled a collection of strange stories for future reference. ”

After that, the number of strange incidents increased day by day, and I was deeply disturbed, so I prepared to set up the Tianji Mansion and the Jin Jiewei on the basis of the Strange Stories Division, trying to gather capable people and people from all over the world to fundamentally understand the causes of these strange incidents, find a universal solution, and at the same time began to disclose the contents of the Strange Stories to all the ministries of the imperial court and local government and county officials, hoping to make the people of the world adapt to this change little by little. ”

"It's just that I really didn't expect that the changes of heaven and earth would come so quickly, so quickly, just a winter that was not much different as usual, since the winter thunderstorms, the beginning of the wind and snow, everything was suddenly beyond my control, internal and external troubles followed, and in an instant it was already irreparable......

"Now there are thieves in the Southern Wilderness who claim to be the King of Equality, and they have occupied several prefectures in the southwest of the Great Wei Dynasty, and even Gu Aiqing's original hometown and township Nanfu are located in it, and the border passes in the north are also in an emergency, and many counties and counties close to the grasslands in the north have lost any news, in addition, the mainland is also full of rebellion, and there is smoke everywhere...... Gu Aiqing may not know that I, the emperor of the Great Wei, have already given up control of most of the rivers and mountains now, and only hopes that the several prefectures and counties around the capital will not be chaotic. ”

"Gu Aiqing, if you sit in my seat, what should you do?"

Gu Juan looked up at Xu Zhengyuan, whose hair was already gray, and after thinking for a while, he could only shake his head and sigh, "I can't think about it, at most I can just be alone." ”

"Be ......alone," Xu Zhengyuan repeated in a low voice, and suddenly showed a wry smile, "Gu Aiqing can indeed be alone, because you don't have any more concerns, but you have the strength that makes me envious, I want to be like you, it's impossible." ”

"Your Majesty doesn't need to be too sad and anxious, as the saying goes, there is no endless road, no matter what, we are naturally working in the best direction, towards the worst possible plan, what the final result will be, not to the last moment, in fact, no one will know......"

Gu Juan lost the wine glass, got up directly and picked up the wine jar, and also came to the door of the Qinzheng Palace, and looked at the wind and snow outside and the dark night sky with Xu Zhengyuan, saying words of relief that even he didn't believe very much.

Xu Zhengyuan threw out the wine glass in his hand vigorously, and it fell far to the ground with a crisp sound.

Then he closed his eyes and said in an almost inaudible voice, "Mr. Gu, I invite you here this time mainly for two things. ”

"Your Majesty, please speak. ”

Gu Juan sighed again, from Aiqing to Mr., one word for request, one word for request, one word for words, from the mouth of the man in front of him, who was the Ninety-Five Honor, who once looked down on the world and looked forward to his might, it sounded like a different taste and emotion.

However, Xu Zhengyuan's family has been good to him from beginning to end, this favor, whether he can help or help, there are not too many reasons to refuse.

"First, I hope that Mr. will personally go out and inspect and suppress the strange incidents in the surrounding counties of the capital one by one if he is sure, so as to stabilize the situation. ”

"Yes. ”

Gu Juan didn't think about it for too long, so he agreed directly.

Because it's not hard for him.

It doesn't even take him to run back and forth to do it.

When he went back, he said to Hongyi, and asked her to think about the secret method like a dream, starting from inside and outside the capital, and then touching the area one by one.

really met someone who didn't listen to her and was too strong, so it was in the game of group beating and besieging and fighting one more.

Seeing that Gu Juan directly responded to the first thing, Xu Zhengyuan's mood was obviously a little better than before, but he still had a deep despair and twilight.

"The second thing, if the situation continues to deteriorate, and finally the moment comes to collapse, I beg you to take my children away...... I don't dare to ask for anything to keep the royal bloodline in order to restore the community, but as a father, I simply hope that my children can live. ”

Gu Juan drank the wine in the jar in one gulp, met Xu Zhengyuan's somewhat reddened eyes, and nodded slowly, "I promise you that it is." ”
