Chapter 622: Hostage

The emperor lay expressionlessly on the dragon couch, looking at the bed curtain above his head without saying a word. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The second prince stood beside the bed with an evil smile on his face, "Father, the county lord of Jiaoyang will enter the palace in a while, let the county lord of Jiaoyang show you what kind of illness you have, why did it happen so suddenly." ”

His eyes moved, but he still didn't speak.

Since the second prince surrounded the palace, the emperor has not spoken again, and there is no expression on his face.

Years of imperial habits, no matter what is in the heart, can not be expressed.

This is a must for an emperor, but now it is used on his own son, how sad!

Zi Beat knew the intentions of the second prince, and he didn't even bother to call a rebel.

The second prince's movements were so fast that he was defenseless!

The only way he could think of was to declare Gu Yan Qi to enter the palace, hoping that Gu Yi would be able to discover the abnormalities in the palace.

Coincidentally, he had just told the imperial doctor who came to check his pulse his opinion, and the second prince happily agreed.

This made him a little uneasy.

The second prince is so arrogant, could it be that Gu Yi is supporting him in the back?

The emperor couldn't believe this situation, if it was really the case, then he was finished.

"Father, you will live a hundred years. The second prince smiled strangely, "Don't you understand? When you are seriously ill, only I am by your side, and only I am a filial son!"

The emperor's eyelids didn't even droop, he knew that the second prince wanted him to be a puppet emperor.

As long as he doesn't die, as long as he supports the second prince, then the throne of the second prince will be stable, but if he doesn't obey, what awaits him in the end is death, and the second prince will forge the will.

He is an emperor and has his own dignity, he will not be a puppet, but he can't let such a beast who kills the king and his father succeed!

Seeing that the emperor still didn't speak, the second prince was not in a hurry to persecute, he was waiting, waiting for Gu Yanqi's arrival.

The father and son confronted each other silently in the empty Qianqing Palace, although there was no gunpowder smoke in the air, but both of them were nervous.

Until Gu Yanqi's arrival.

Gu Yanqi was directly led to the Qianqing Palace, she glanced at the eunuch who was dressed in the chief eunuch service, frowned and asked, "What about Father-in-law Quanfu?"

When the chief eunuch heard this, he was a little displeased, but he was much more discerning than the little eunuch who passed the decree, and he smiled and said sharply, "Father-in-law Quanfu embezzled the money of the Internal Affairs Office, and he has been killed with a rod." ”

Gu Yanqi's body was stunned, and the father-in-law of Quanfu had an accident, and it seemed that the emperor's situation was not very good.

She took a breath, and then said, "Please inform the county lord of the county." ”

The chief eunuch nodded and said politely, "Wait a minute, our family will go and report." ”

After a while, the chief eunuch came out, "Xuanjiao County Lord is here!"

Gu Yanqi entered the Qianqing Palace, and at a glance he saw the burly figure in the center of the main hall.

"The courtiers have seen the emperor and the second prince. Gu Yan saluted.

The second prince looked at Gu Yanqi with interest, and had no intention of letting her be flattened at all, and in the end, the emperor said with difficulty in a dumb voice.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. After Gu Yanqi thanked him, he got up and walked to the bed.

I haven't seen him for a few days, the emperor has lost a lot of weight, his face is as pale as paper, and he doesn't need to check his pulse, Gu Yanqi knows that the emperor's life will not be long.

When the emperor saw Gu Yanqi, he smiled at her, and then asked, "Xiao Qi, I ...... Give me a pulse. ”

Gu Yanqi nodded, and then checked the emperor's pulse, which was worse than she imagined.

"Your Majesty. Gu Yanqi looked at the emperor with pity, what about the most noble man in the world?

As soon as he saw Gu Yanqi's expression, the emperor knew that he was about to die.

A hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, but after he was really sure, he still couldn't be as calm as water.

"Little Seven......" the emperor said with difficulty, "I'm sorry." ”

Gu Yanqi's eyes flashed, and after thinking about it, he understood the emperor's deep meaning, presumably the second prince also understood! But he still obeyed the emperor's will and summoned her to the palace.

If there is no greater intention, I don't believe her!

"Your Majesty, your health is so bad, what about the other Royal Highnesses, why is it that only His Royal Highnesses the Second Prince are doing his filial piety for you?" Gu Yanqi asked deliberately.

A hint of appreciation flashed in the emperor's eyes, "Second prince, what about the other princes?"

This is the first time that the emperor has spoken to the second prince since the second prince forced the palace, and he still entrusted Gu Yanqi's blessing.

A hint of gloom flashed in the eyes of the second prince, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be on the surface.

"I don't know where the other princes have gone. The second prince shrugged, "But speaking of which, these princes are really unfilial, their fathers are terminally ill, and none of them have come to see them." ”

At the end, a hint of mockery appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The emperor's eyes were a little dim, although he didn't know why the rest of the princes didn't come, but he was really lost.

When people are dying, they want to see their children and grandchildren.

When Gu Yanqi heard this, his eyes flashed, "Aren't they in the palace?"

The second prince sneered, "No." ”

Gu Yanqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and no longer in the palace...... Brother Yue, Xu is fine.

She really cares about it, the second prince is too far behind Brother Yue, how can he have the ability to trap Brother Yue?

As soon as he thought of this, Gu Yanqi's heart also became lighter, as long as Brother Yue was fine.

"You're in a good state of mind. The second prince praised it.

Gu Yanqi remembered that in her previous life, she fought bloodily from the enemy, and when she triumphed, the second prince said, "You have a good mentality." ”

At that time, I felt that there was such a sentence, and it was worth it no matter how hard she worked.

Unexpectedly, now she just asked a mentally handicapped question, and she was praised and a little unaccustomed.

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.

"However, no amount of good attitude can change your current status as a hostage. After saying that, the second prince turned around and left.

A woman, an old man, and the two of them can't make waves.

Gu Yanqi knew that from this moment on, she was becoming a hostage, in fact, she had thought about this possibility as early as when she decided to enter the palace.

It's just that there was a glimmer of hope at the time, and now, it has been determined.

She looked at the emperor, sighed, and said, "Your Majesty, do you know that your body is poisoned rather than sick?"

The corners of the emperor's mouth twitched, how could he not know?

"Yes. ”

"I know you're still eating, I'm not afraid of eating myself to death!" Gu Yanqi glared.

The emperor was silent for a moment and said, "Now we are all prisoners under the ranks, a prisoner under the ranks, what qualifications do you have?"
