Chapter 100 (II): A Thousand Rounds of Life and Death

It was close at hand, and he was not afraid, he only said: "Lord Xiangguo, rest assured, Your Majesty is safe and sound, and he has already gone to accompany his aunt." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

His voice was slightly lower, revealing a cruel fact to Lu Yuanzhi: "But, Lord Xiangguo, haven't you understood it yet? Do you really think that it was all the eldest princess's idea to send troops into the city to punish your Lu family? Heh, in the name of the eldest princess forcing the monarch to destroy the prime minister, it is just to appease your court party members, after all, you can't kill them all, right? Behind this...... Haven't you seen who exactly wants you to die?"

Lu Yuanzhi's eyes suddenly widened, staring at the Mingtang Golden Hall in front of him, in disbelief, and said in shock: "You mean Your Majesty? How can it be Your Majesty! Impossible! I, Lu Yuanzhi, have worked hard for 20 years, and single-handedly put him on the throne! Why did he treat my Lu family like this! What did I, Lu Yuanzhi, do to be sorry for Your Majesty?"

Gu Qingxuan's crazy eyes at him, the indifference and calmness revealed seemed to be able to freeze people's hearts and make all the hysteria disappear.

He said: "Do you think this is a judgment of right or wrong? No, be sober, Lu Yuanzhi, this is a political game of your life and death! You have done nothing wrong, but you have already threatened Your Majesty's imperial power." Lord Xiangguo, once there is a new policy, your old exploits are no longer convincing, and now that the people's livelihood is withering, His Majesty no longer needs a helper to form a party and seek power, what he needs is a courtier who has the ability to help him clean up this mess. So ......"

It seemed that because the serious injury was not all healed, and it was a little difficult to speak for a long time, Gu Qingxuan paused and said with a smile: "Lord Xiangguo, you are very good, but at this time, it is useless." ”

Gu Qingxuan tore open this bloody wound like this, and brutally exposed it in front of him, Lu Yuanzhi finally felt like an initiation, he looked up to the sky and laughed, crazy to the extreme, reached out and pulled out the sword on his waist, thinking about Gu Qingxuan's life.

However, before the long sword could be unsheathed, a short knife had pierced his heart with unmistakable accuracy, and blood was pouring in.

This was the last blow Gu Qingxuan gave him, Lu Yuanzhi screamed miserably, he was unable to draw his sword, his eyes widened, and he leaned forward, facing Gu Qingxuan.

Gu Qingxuan did not shy away from his devil-like desperate and crazy eyes, looked directly at him, and gave it to him with another force, "This is a knife you owe me." ”

Lu Yuanzhi used his last strength to shout his name through gritted teeth: "Gu Qingxuan......"

It is as if to remember these three words even in death, which is the brand of hatred engraved into the soul.

He finally lost his breath, Gu Qingxuan also let go, and he fell to the ground in despair.

When they saw that Lu Yuanzhi was dead, they were all panicked, and some of them still wanted to die and struggle, slashing and fighting frantically, the two armies clashed, and the sergeants of the patrol battalion who were in chaos were all wiped out by the army led by the Marquis of Anyi, and in front of the Golden Palace of Mingtang, blood flowed like a river.

This is not the first time, nor will it be the last.

Chen Jingxing was escorted by the Imperial Forest Army and rushed to the Tianyi Altar, and the soldiers of the patrol battalion surrounding the Tianyi Altar saw him before they understood that things were in chaos, and hurriedly bowed their heads and bowed down to greet him.

He repelled them and asked the Imperial Guards to surround the Tianyi Altar, and he went to the inner hall of the altar in person, with only a few attendants behind him.

Chen Jingxing entered the inner hall and walked forward alone, finally seeing the two people waiting for him there.

Around the temple, sixteen bronze finch and golden branch lamps were all lit, and the ground on both sides of the passage was decorated with small lamps and candles like sparks, and in this vast sea of lights, two women were sitting.

Gu Qingning sat on the main seat of worship, but did not face the gods, but faced the gate of the temple, and the eldest princess of Jinyi leaned on her arms and closed her eyes.

She hugged the eldest princess with both hands, her chin was attached to her forehead, and she was silent for a long time.

Until she saw Chen Jingxing appear in front of her, she didn't move to salute, but turned her eyes, still looking at him silently, tears appeared in her eyes.

Chen Jingxing stepped forward, stared at the eldest princess, knelt in front of them, took the eldest princess's cold hand, and called out with tears: "Auntie......"

At that moment, Gu Qingning was willing to believe that he was really sad.

Blockading the palace, holding the power to transfer troops, and exterminating the Lu clan, she did not ignore that the emperor would suspect her and hate her, but she was ready to help her young nephew sit on the throne with her own death.

How could a person as powerful as her not know what kind of threat she was to the king?

Back then, this was true for the first emperor, and now, even more so for the new emperor.

Back then, she could choose to retreat, but now, she doesn't want to retreat anymore, after all, there is still hatred in her heart, so it's better to end it like this.

Chen Jingxing raised his sad eyes, looked at Gu Qingning, and asked, "Are you the one who accompanied her to the end...... What do you have to say to her?"

Gu Qingning looked at him, hugged the person in his arms tighter, blinked his eyes, shed tears, and said, "The eldest princess said that she has ...... Don't blame Your Majesty......"

At that moment, tears flashed in Chen Jingxing's eyes, which seemed to poke the deepest string in his heart, allowing him to release the thoughts that he had deposited for many years.

The party struggle for succession was provoked by Lu Yuanzhi for power, but the root cause was him, he won the throne in the most cruel way, how could there be no trace of apology in his heart?

As her nephew, but he killed so many of her nephews, how could he not be afraid that she would hate him?

However, in the end, she forgave him, because she knew that he would be a Ming Jun and would keep the Chen family.

Chen Jingxing leaned on her palm and whispered, "Thank you, aunt......"

Out of the temple, he is still a calm and majestic ninety-five supreme, announcing in front of everyone that the eldest princess of Jinyi has passed away, and she has made meritorious contributions to quelling the chaos.

Deeper, the turmoil subsided, and the smell of bloody killing wafted over the palace, and the wind blew and dispersed.

They gathered at the foot of the Tianyi Altar, bowed their heads, and pious shouted: "Loyal to my emperor, God bless the Great Qi!"

……

Gu Qinghuan and Gu Qingfeng were released, the Gu family reunited, and together they cleaned up the White Flower Spiritual Hall in the mansion overnight.

The East is white, and it is about to come to the time of the last dynasty.

Gu Qingxuan stood in the main hall, looking at his name written on the spirit tablet standing on the high desk.

It is indeed rare, how many people in this world can hold a funeral for themselves?

He stroked the empty coffin in front of him and smiled.

Anyway, at this time, it wasn't him who was lying in Nanmu's coffin......

……

The Lu family was beheaded all over the house, and the grand prime minister's mansion a few days ago disappeared and completely disappeared in Chang'an City. Above the court, in terms of meritorious deeds, among the living people, Yin Jiheng was regarded as the first meritorious service, and more rewards were given, and he was the only one left among the three dukes, and the power was so endless.

Then there is the Marquis of Anyi, who has made meritorious contributions in mobilizing troops to quell the chaos, Chen Jingxing gave him a seal of food, but he refused, and only wanted to stay in Chang'an forever, be a man, and guard the tomb for the eldest princess of Jinyi buried in the imperial mausoleum, Chen Jingxing played on the spot.

followed by Gu Qingxuan, it's not that Chen Jingxing doesn't know what kind of credit he has behind this, but he doesn't fight and pushes all kinds of great achievements to Yin Jiheng.

Chen Jingxing wanted to restore his second-rank official position, but he politely resigned, and was willing to supervise the imperial history from the fourth-grade level, and still served in the imperial history platform.

Gu Qingning took the initiative to write a letter to ask for the construction of the eldest princess's mausoleum, and Chen Jing was right, so she stayed up countless days and nights to design a gorgeous cemetery for the eldest princess of Jinyi.

She finally fulfilled her childhood promise to build the most beautiful "house" for the most beautiful person in her mind......

After the end of the national funeral, it was late April, and the court was stable, and there was finally no wind and waves for a while. Gu Qingxuan was summoned to the palace and met in the imperial garden.

Chen Jingxing was independent in the pavilion of the Imperial Garden, and when he saw him coming, he directly asked him to avoid the big gift, and when he stepped forward, he was leisurely, pointed to the chessboard on the table, and said with a smile: "There is nothing to do today, I came to chess, and I thought that Gu Qing was the best, so I summoned Qing to come, Gu Qing, how about playing a few games with me?"

He bowed and said, "It is a blessing for a minister to obey the order." ”

Chen Jingxing played with the jade in the chessboard and said with a smile: "Back then, when I first heard that Gu Qing was good, I gave Gu Qing the pair of Bai Yao Xuanyu chess pieces in my hand, after so many years, does Gu Qing still keep it?"

Gu Qingxuan replied: "The treasure given by His Majesty is a treasure of the world, and Weichen has collected and enshrined it as a treasure in the town government for so many years. ”
