The two pavilion elders were anxious and silent, and the atmosphere in the room became more and more solemn.

The commander of the forbidden army kneeling on the ground had completely lost confidence in Dong Ge Lao, and turned to Gu Ge Lao and said, "Ge Lao, you have to hurry up and get an idea, the time limit given by the rebels is almost up, and Your Majesty's safety is at stake." ”

Just half an hour ago, the leader of the so-called "rebels" gave them an ultimatum that they must hand over the emperor and the queen before the hour, otherwise they would storm Yunni Villa.

At this time, the hour has passed, and there is not much time left before the time of Mao, so it is no wonder that the commander of the forbidden army is so anxious that his tone has changed a little.

Probably infected by his emotions, Dong Bi became more and more anxious, walked two steps to Gu Ge Lao's side, and directly grabbed Gu Ge Lao's sleeve completely regardless of his image.

The tone was almost pleading: "You should make a decision quickly!"

Gu Ge Lao secretly sneered, since he became the father-in-law of the second prince, Dong Bi regarded himself as the successor of the first assistant.

If it weren't for the accident of the second prince a few months ago, he Gu Yunnian would probably have been squeezed so much that he couldn't stay in the cabinet.

Regardless of whether a person is a person or an important minister, his daily life and work may be able to see whether he is talented or not, but only when the crisis comes, can we see whether he can take on heavy responsibilities.

On the surface, Dong Bi seems to be the kind of person who is talented but not responsible.

However, in Gu Gelao's opinion, there is another possibility that is even greater.

That is Dong Bi's anxiety is not because of His Majesty's safety, but because of the second prince.

The country cannot be without a king for a day, once His Majesty has three longs and two shorts, which prince should be supported to take the throne?

Because of Gu Xi, the world thought that he Gu Yunnian must support the second prince, but in fact, he never thought about this problem.

He is nearly twenty years older than His Majesty the Emperor, and to be honest, how many years will he live? When His Majesty returns to the West, His Majesty will still be sitting on the dragon chair, so there is no need to be bored with himself.

What's more, the first assistant of the cabinet is already the head of the hundred officials, what is there to dissatisfaction with this old man?

On the contrary, it is Dong Bi, although His Majesty made him the teacher of the King of Thailand, he will definitely only stand on the side of his son-in-law at the critical moment.

The reason why he was in a hurry to leave Yunni Villa was that he felt that the second prince was too young to control the situation, and wanted to return to Beijing to preside over the overall situation.

It's just that this guy is really treacherous, in a hurry, but his brain is very clear, and he would rather make people feel that he is difficult to take on a big responsibility, rather than be a bird.

And......

Gu Ge Lao's wise and shrewd eyes flashed slightly, he even suspected that the rebels under the mountain were accomplices with Dong Bi, no wonder His Majesty didn't want to believe him at all.

Thinking about this clearly, Gu Ge Lao gently pulled his sleeve out of Dong Bi's hand, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, Your Majesty must not fall into the hands of the rebels. ”

His voice was slightly muffled, but it did a good job of stabilizing people's hearts.

The commander was also a smart man, and he quickly understood what Gu Ge Lao meant.

That is, no matter whether His Majesty can wake up or not, he will never agree to the rebels' conditions, and he will never hand over His Majesty.

Emperor Yongtai is suspicious by nature, and the three thousand forbidden troops who were able to drive to Yunni Mountain Villa this time are all loyal and loyal to His Majesty the Emperor.

But with their status, they are not qualified to make decisions on such an important matter, so the most worrying thing is that these people in power will ignore His Majesty, who does not know life and death, for their own safety.

At this moment, seeing Gu Ge Lao's attitude so resolute, his heart finally fell back to the ground.

He hugged his fist at Gu Ge Lao: "Everything under the command of Gu Ge Lao." ”

Gu Ge Lao said: "Commander Huang, you immediately go and arrange to divide the three thousand forbidden troops into three parts, of which 1,000 people are guarding Yunni Mountain Villa, and the remaining 2,000 people are divided into four squads, waiting for the next order of this official." ”

Commander Huang knew that Gu Ge Lao must be planning to break through, but it was difficult to inquire in detail, so he hugged his fists again: "My subordinates will arrange it." ”

After Commander Huang left, there were only two pavilion elders left in the house.

Dong Ge Lao couldn't hold back any longer, and glared at Gu Ge Lao angrily and said, "Gu Yunnian, do you want to take people's lives?"

Gu Ge Lao became more and more sure of his previous guess, Dong Bi really had a problem!

He asked in a cold voice, "Dong Bi, do you want to take the life of His Majesty?"

Dong Bi's tone softened: "Elder Gu Ge, you have been in the officialdom for decades, and Your Majesty's thoughts will not be unclear." ”

The corners of Gu Ge Lao's mouth hooked: "What does Your Majesty think?"

Dong Bi choked, this dead old man, when is he still pretending!

He was a little excited and said: "You are the pillar of my Great Zhou Dynasty, without you being in charge of the court, how could Your Majesty stabilize the situation so quickly!"

He secretly glanced at Gu Ge Lao as he spoke, but unfortunately the other party's old face was still as calm as water, and he was neither excited nor planned to say a few modest words politely.

Dong Bi lucked his luck and said: "But what did Your Majesty do to you? Obviously, you are healthy and mentally strong, and you can do more for the Great Zhou Dynasty, but he has been constantly excluding you, and I can't ...... you."

Gu Yunqing interrupted him with a smile and said: "Elder Dong Ge, you don't like to listen to what the official says, even if Your Majesty wants to squeeze out the official, to a large extent, he is making room for you, you have a great future, don't you?"

The implication is that Dong Bi doesn't have to act anymore, and the old man himself can give way earlier, so that he can remove the word "quasi" from the quasi-first assistant as soon as possible, so why bother acting here.

Dong Bi was anxious, this old man Gu was too hateful, and the sour taste in his words could be smoked out for three miles!

Since His Majesty has completely disgusted His Second Highness, and his father-in-law, the Second Highness, has also been disgusted, whether he can continue to stay in the cabinet is a matter of two words, what else do you dare to think of?

Otherwise, why would he take the risk and force himself into this position?

If it weren't for the fact that this old man was still useful, he would have taken his life now, and let him completely vacate his position!

He endured his anger and said: "Why do you want to ask Gu Ge Elder knowingly, the lower official has already been disgusted by His Majesty, maybe you will only have to take the initiative to resign if you don't wait for your lower official, and there is still a future for the official." ”

Gu Ge Lao smiled lightly: "Dong Ge Lao is too pessimistic, looking at the entire court, whether it is seniority or connections, there are a few people who can be comparable to you, Your Majesty is a Ming Jun, and he has never done anything to anger others, not to mention that His Second Highness is his only concubine after all." ”

Dong Bi waved his hand: "Pavilion Lao Mo wants to comfort the lower officials, who doesn't know that your son-in-law Yuan Zongzhi has the most emperor's heart, and when it comes to qualifications and talents, the lower officials are far behind, the lower officials are really envious of the pavilion elders, and you have a successor." ”

These words are indeed in his heart, he is also a son-in-law, how can his son-in-law be so far behind the son-in-law of the old man?

In addition to Kaiyuan Zongzhi, Marquis Wu Ning is not bad, coupled with a high-ranking grandson-in-law like Huo Xiaowangye, this old man's power in the court and his connections are so extensive that he can't catch up.
