Chapter Fifty-Eight: Turning Danger into Relief
The night was hazy, the banquet was already half-full.
"Shuoyun has today's peace, and the contribution of King Yun is indispensable. Someone walked up to King Yun and flattered, raising a glass to drink with him.
Gongsun Yi sat there cross-legged, dressed in black almost blending in with the night, he was magnificent, his momentum was extraordinary, and he exuded a cold momentum. Those who dare to go up and invite King Yun to drink are either very bold, or the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. When someone came to talk, Gongsun Yi kept maintaining that posture as if he hadn't heard it, motionless.
"Lord Wang, the lower official toasts you. Seeing that King Yun didn't react, the man didn't give up.
Gongsun Yi raised his head suddenly, his whole body muscles were tense, his eyes were cold, his teeth were clenched, and his handsome face was hideous, like a bloodthirsty beast.
The man took a step back in fright, and the glass in his hand fell to the ground, and he reacted and almost ran away.
After a while, a woman walked over, the woman was delicate, but her steps were steady, full of energy, and she was obviously a person who practiced martial arts.
"The prince is drunk, the slave family will help you go to the side hall to rest. The woman said, and forcibly helped Gongsun Yi up and walked towards the side hall.
Along the way, she was almost terrified, for fear that Gongsun Yi's Gu poison attack would suddenly break her head.
When she helped Gongsun Yi to the side hall, a layer of cold sweat had already appeared on her body, and there was a feeling of turning around the ghost gate.
She didn't dare to stop for a moment, so she went out, and then went out and closed the door. There was already a figure waiting for her behind her.
The woman quickly knelt down in front of the noble figure: "My subordinates meet Your Majesty." β
"Get up, and walk with me. The Emperor said.
The woman got up and followed the emperor in a respectful manner, half a step behind him.
"How?"
"The Gu on Gongsun Yi's body is already on the verge of attack, he is trying his best to suppress the Gu poison, but he can't last long. β
"How's the rest going on?"
"The subordinates have asked people to invite the officials to meet in the side hall in the tone of Gongsun Yi. The woman said.
In the darkness of the night, a mocking and happy smile appeared on the Emperor's face.
Gongsun Yi's rebellion has actually been revealed. He quietly wooed the courtiers. However, Gongsun Yi is so blatant, is he really a fool as an emperor?
The official department is Gongsun Yi's person, and he is going to let the official department die in the hands of Gongsun Yi now.
The official Shangshu died, and Gongsun Yi brutally killed the courtiers with the intention of rebellion...... It's a seamless ploy.
"What happened to the people outside the side hall?" the Emperor continued.
"The subordinates arranged a hundred guards. After Gongsun Yi killed the official Shangshu, his subordinates led people to kill Gongsun Yi!" the woman said.
The Emperor nodded with satisfaction.
In the darkness of the night, a conspiracy capable of killing thousands of people is quietly underway.
Gu Shuiyue was dressed in black, riding a horse, and galloping at the fastest speed.
Faster, faster. If it is slow, then her and Gongsun Yi's lives will come to an end. Moreover, once she thought of the appearance of the man lying in a pool of blood, Gu Shuiyue felt inexplicably flustered.
It would have taken an hour to travel, but Gu Shuiyue ran there in half an hour.
She quickly rolled over and dismounted, handing over the invitation.
This is a royal business, and there are many guards and all of them are masters. If you can't enter with an invitation, it will be a problem for Gu Shuiyue to enter.
The guard looked at the invitation, and Gu Shuiyue's heart couldn't help but rise.
"Your Excellency, please come in. The guard said respectfully, "It's just that it's already midnight, and the banquet is probably over." β
Gu Shuiyue quietly breathed a sigh of relief, arched her hand towards the guard, and lowered her voice, "Thank you for reminding me." β
Gu Shuiyue walked in with her robe.
When she saw the huge royal business, she knew that entering here was only the first step, and it was as difficult as climbing to find Gongsun Yi from here.
Gu Shuiyue walked towards the banquet hall, as the guard said, the people here had dispersed, and only a few drunken adults remained.
"Cloud King...... Belch...... It's terrifying. β
Gu Shuiyue turned her head to look, and saw one person on the other's shoulder, and hiccuped.
Gu Shuiyue quickly walked to the man's side: "Where is King Yun now?"
The man looked at Gu Shuiyue with drunken eyes, and only after a while did he say, "King Yun is drunk...... Belch...... He was helped to the side hall. β
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark shadow flashed, and there was no one in front of him. He couldn't help but rub his eyes, he was dreaming just now?
The number of rooms in the side hall is limited, and most of them are arranged for a few important people, and ordinary people can't enter at all.
In front of Gu Shuiyue was another barrier.
Dressed in black, she hid in a tree and blended in with the night.
There was a murderous aura faintly surrounding the darkness, and Gu Shuiyue was keenly aware of a strange feeling, this feeling ...... It's like being surrounded on the battlefield.
There must be many people hiding under the cover of this dark night, and they are so murderous that they have raised their butcher knives.
Gu Shuiyue's forehead couldn't help but ooze some cold sweat.
No, she couldn't wait any longer.
Just when Gu Shuiyue decided to break in, a strong aroma came to her face.
A eunuch led a group of women from afar, and those women were dressed very brightly and had slender figures.
"Who?"
"Prince Chun called to help the fun. β
Gu Shuiyue jumped down from the tree like a ghost, knocked the woman at the end unconscious and quickly pulled her into the grass, then draped her pale pink robe over herself, and covered her black clothes over her body.
Gu Shuiyue quickly integrated into this group of women, and even the people standing in front of her didn't notice it.
Prince Chun would always do some ridiculous things, and the emperor was very indulgent to him. After making sure that these women were all called by King Chun, the guards did not stop them and let them in.
Gu Shuiyue wanted to take the opportunity to slip away after entering, but when she first stepped into this courtyard, she felt countless pairs of eyes fall on her, observing her every move, and she had nowhere to hide.
The chief eunuch led the group to a door, and the eunuch's gaze suddenly fell on her.
Even if the moonlight is hazy, Gu Shuiyue's appearance is indeed the most outstanding among all the women, and she has a unique temperament, with the elegance of everyone's ladies and the softness of women.
"A few of you go in and serve Prince Chun, you come with me. β
Gu Shuiyue obediently followed behind the eunuch, handed a piece of silver to the eunuch, and asked, "Father-in-law, where are you going to take the slave family?"
"Prince Chun ordered, you go to serve an important person, if you are favored, half a life of glory, half a life of wealth, you are the master of the old slave......" The eunuch said sharply in a sharp voice.
There are about 20 rooms in this side hall, and each of them is inhabited by important people. She was going to quietly find out from it that Gongsun Yi was in that room......
Gu Shuiyue pretended to be casual and said, "Is the big man you are talking about the King of Clouds?"
"Shh......h Don't be anxious, you'll find out later. β
Gu Shuiyue followed behind him, pointed out a room for her, and let her in.
Gu Shuiyue had to hang her head and go in under the observation of many pairs of eyes.
The faint scent of books came to her face, Gu Shuiyue kept hanging her head, and the first thing that caught her eye was a white corner of her clothes.
It's not Gongsun Yi, there is no killing aura from him.
Gu Shuiyue knelt down towards the man, making a frightened appearance and not daring to raise her head, but actually wanted to find a chance to get out.
"Who are you?" the man's voice sounded above her.
"King Chun asked the slave family to serve the son. Gu Shuiyue said softly.
The man was silent for a moment before he said, "Raise your head." β
Gu Shuiyue raised her head.
The man in front of him was dressed in a simple white robe, but he had an indescribable grace and luxury, he had the temperament of a literati, but he was outstanding, and he must have been in the top position for a long time. And his face ...... It is not an exaggeration to describe the unparalleled son of the world.
Gu Shuiyue instantly understood the identity of this man, the head of civil officials - King Jin.
And in the eyes of the man, it is a particularly beautiful scenery. The woman had a delicate and beautiful face, and her skin was like white porcelain. She bit her lip, her lips were almost bright red, and her eyelashes were long, blinking like a brush, very pitiful.
The man's eyes were first amazed, then regretful and disgusted. This woman does fit his aesthetics, but it's a pity......
Gu Shuiyue was inexplicably disgusted by him.
"Go out, this king doesn't need to be served. King Jin said, "Because this king has a habit of cleanliness." β
Gu Shuiyue: "......" so you dislike her for being dirty?
"A pair of jade arms and thousands of pillows, half a red lip for ten thousand people. You have fallen into the dust, maybe it is not what you wanted. But this king is only looking for a lifetime and a couple, and he has no interest in such romantic affairs. King Jin said coldly, with a gesture of sending off guests.
The King of Jin was older than King Chun, but he did not have any wives and concubines in the house. Of course, King Chun has no family because no one dares to marry him, and King Jin is the hot object of young women. Gu Shuiyue felt that she knew a terrible secret, it turned out that King Jin was not close to women not because of special habits, but because he had not found someone who knew him.
Gu Shuiyue was not interested in telling King Jin why she had fallen into the dust, let alone discussing with King Jin about this life and a couple, her attention was focused on the surroundings, trying to find a clue where Gongsun Yi was.
Of course, Gu Shuiyue's face made a heartbroken look, and there were tears rolling in her beautiful eyes. In fact, her attention had long been elsewhere. Finally, Gu Shuiyue caught a familiar voice in the silence.
One two three...... Count to the left to the third room!
Gu Shuiyue went out directly through the window.
In the eyes of King Jin, the woman was heartbroken and leftβjust why did she go through the window?
Gu Shuiyue quickly flashed to the outside of the room, quietly pushed open the window, and flashed in through the window, and suddenly, a smell of blood came to her face.
By the moonlight, when she saw everything in front of her, Gu Shuiyue's heart almost jumped out.
After all, she was a step too late, only to see Gongsun Yi stab the sword into the man's chest, the man's eyes widened, he was already lifeless, and the bright red blood fell to the ground drop by drop, and it was still dazzling red in the moonlight. Gongsun Yi's face was full of madness and violence, and his eyes were completely out of control.
Gongsun Yi's gaze suddenly fell on Gu Shuiyue, with crazy killing intent in his eyes.
Gu Shuiyue took a step back, and at the same time, she heard footsteps outside, as if countless people were coming from all directions, trapping them in it......
The moment of life and death!
Calm down, calm down, the fate of Gongsun Yi, herself, and the entire Yunwang Mansion is in her hands!
"Escort, escort, someone is plotting against you!" a shrill cry suddenly sounded.
The next moment, the door of Gongsun Yi's room was pushed open, and countless people held knives, trying to hack the wrongdoer to death under the knife.
"Uh-huh......"
A soft and bone-chilling sound came, and then looked at the two shadows on the bed, and everyone who was a little bit of a person knew what was going on.
The man who rushed in to capture the thief was stunned.
None of them understood how the scene that they should have seen Gongsun Yi murdering important officials of the court turned into such a charming scene.
Could it be that they went to the wrong room?
But the tall figure on the bed does belong to the Cloud King, and this is indeed the Cloud King's room.
Because of the sentence just now, 'someone is plotting against you', many people came over to see what was happening, and at this moment, in the bed tent, a lotus root arm was exposed.
"Master, there are so many people, and the slave family is afraid. The woman's soft voice came out.
Didn't you say to see the rebels?
How did it become a matter of watching people's rooms?
Shouldn't these guards be guarding the safety of other businesses?
Several important ministers of the court, you look at me, I look at you, and there is some inexplicability in their eyes.
"Get out!" came the Cloud King's loud shout.
Those guards who were all in a daze suddenly came back to their senses, and their faces were pale, but now that the division was unknown, and the majesty of King Yun was still there, no one dared to rush up and cut Gongsun Yi.
So the crowd withdrew.
When she felt that everyone was leaving, Gu Shuiyue was already out of strength, her back was covered with sweat, and her whole person seemed to have been fished out of the water.
Gongsun Yi was lying on her body, and the violence in his eyes had not completely faded, but he was trying his best to suppress it, so that there was a trace of clarity.
"Ah Lan...... ......"He called the name, as if it was the only name that could keep him awake.
"Gongsun Yi, bear with it a little longer, we must leave immediately, otherwise when they react and come up with other conspiracies, we will be powerless to parry. Gu Shuiyue said in a low voice.
