Chapter 55: Yan Xiaoran left

The sunlight in front of me was a little dazzling, and I felt as if I was standing at the foot of the steps of the Golden Luang Palace. I was still wondering how I had come here in such a good way, when suddenly a group of people came from a distance. The procession stopped in front of me, and I saw Yan Xiaoran walking down from the royal court.

The Yan Xiaoran in front of him is very different from what I usually see, he is wearing a dark dragon robe embroidered with gold dragon patterns, which is domineering, and there is a natural fierceness between his eyebrows. In the dark pupils, there is a ripple and brilliance, like a bright and dazzling star in the dark night.

"Yan ......" I went to greet him, but who knew that he was very disgusted and put my hand away. He looked at me with no more emotion in his eyes, as if he were looking at a stranger.

"Gu Shu, you don't have any use value anymore." He looked at me mockingly, like an ant, and I was so small in front of him that he was toying with it.

I looked at Yan Xiaoran, who was so unfamiliar in front of me, in a daze, he sneered, and his cold gaze swept over me, like a sharp blade, through the bones. He stretched out his hand and pushed me to the ground: "Someone, take this emperor of the previous dynasty down." ”

"Ah......h The feeling in my dream was as if it were real, and it made me uncomfortable and couldn't breathe.

"What's wrong, nightmares?" Yan Xiaoran also sat up and hugged my shoulder from behind: "It's okay, dreams are all the opposite." ”

I jerked away from his arm and looked at him in horror for a long time before I came back to my senses. "I ......" I opened my mouth, only to find that my throat was very dry.

"What are you dreaming about?" Yan Xiaoran raised her hand to wipe the cold sweat off my forehead.

I leaned gently into his arms, and the sound of his powerful heartbeat was in my ears, and then I really felt that he was still beside me, and the scene just now was really just a dream. I climbed on his neck and crusaded him aggrievedly: "I dreamed that you didn't want me anymore. "At this moment, I don't even dare to recall that dream.

It is said that there are thoughts during the day and dreams at night, is it because he is leaving tomorrow, so I will have such dreams?

"Shu'er...... If you're really scared, I'm not leaving. He gently stroked my back and comforted, "If my departure makes you so uneasy, then I won't leave." ”

I bit my lip and shook my head: "The team has been arranged, and it has come to this point, if you don't go, won't you make the world laugh?" I'm fine, maybe it's because I'm pregnant, so I'm just unstable. "Since I announced Yan Xiaoran's identity to the world, the royalists on Dayan's side have already sent people to Nanling to contact Yan Xiaoran, and they welcome Yan Xiaoran back to Dayan.

If I don't let Yan Xiaoran go at this time, I'm afraid that those courtiers of Dayan will each have to spit to cover me. Shen Qing has already divided part of his troops, and Yan Xiaoran will set off tomorrow.

Lying down again, I curled up in his arms, but I was completely sleepy.

The next day, before dawn, Yan Xiaoran beside him had already got up gently, and I knew that he was leaving. I didn't open my eyes and pretended to be still sleeping. In the dark, the senses are so obvious. I could hear him clearly as he dressed and walked gently.

Yan Xiaoran leaned over, dropped a kiss on my cheek, and whispered in my ear: "I know you're awake, don't open your eyes and continue to sleep, otherwise I will be reluctant to leave." Wait for me. ”

I closed my eyes until there was no movement in the whole room, and then I opened my eyes, and looked stupidly at the empty room, tears falling uncontrollably. Bastard, don't you even give people a chance to say goodbye?

"Shh......h ”

I turned my head sharply and looked at him dumbfounded: "You...... Aren't you gone? ”

He tricked over: "Because I know someone is going to cry nose, so I deliberately hid and laughed at someone." ”

I jumped over and hooked him by the neck, rolled over and pressed him underneath, biting his neck: "Who cried nose?" I just didn't wake up. ”

"Tear ...... You are so cruel that you want to drink my blood? ”

"I'm leaving a mark for you, so that you will always be mine." There were two rows of tooth marks on his neck, and I gently licked them to soothe him.

"What to do...... I was reluctant to leave. He gently gnawed my ear: "I...... I miss you...... "He hasn't touched me for a long time since I got pregnant.

Looking at his lustful tone, I sneered, and the sadness of parting suddenly disappeared. "Let's go...... Do you want to leave you alone? ”

Even if Yan Xiaoran didn't want to leave, she had to go. Before he left, he said to me very solemnly, "Shu'er, believe me." ”

I don't really understand why he keeps insisting that I believe him, but as long as he says it, I will believe it. If it weren't for trust, we wouldn't be where we are today.

On the first day Yan Xiaoran left, I missed him. I was bored by myself in the imperial study to review the day's recitals, and then went back to the dormitory at night and lay alone in bed.

The day after Yan Xiaoran left, I still missed him. Sometimes, I feel that habit is really a very nerve-wracking thing, when it has never appeared in my life, I am also a person, but I never feel lonely. Now I'm used to his existence, and when I'm alone again, I feel very lonely out of thin air.

On the tenth day of Yan Xiaoran's departure, the adjutant of the Shen family army came with news that they had successfully opened the gate of the Great Yan Border Guancheng. Yan Xiaoran officially went north to crusade against the Empress Dowager of Great Yan and fight for power in the name of the Qing monarch's side.

On the twentieth day after Yan Xiaoran left, Gu Chen raised his troops to the south, and the target went straight to the capital. At this time, I was more than four months pregnant.

I was panicked, but I was calm. Half of Shen Qing's army was lent to Yan Xiaoran, and half remained in the capital. But this half of the people and horses are not equal to all of Gu Chen's people at all. This also made me have to reconsider a question that Shen Qing told me before.

If I lend the soldiers and horses to Yan Xiaoran, then once Gu Chen has a different heart, what should I do? Before, I thought that Gu Chen would not come over to rebel so coincidentally, but it really came. After Shen Qing distributed the rest of the people extremely quickly, I also posted the emperor's list and warned the people in the capital not to go out these days, in case of a fight and killing innocent people, the state will not compensate.

For a while, the entire imperial city was panicked, and the gate of the capital was tightly closed to meet the coming storm. I have to be glad that I didn't lend Shen Qing out together.

When Gu Chen's army arrived outside the capital, he had no intention of attacking the city gate, after all, they were all a family, and they still had to be repaired if they were broken. At this time, it was not convenient for me to go out and confront Gu Chen, so I asked Shen Qing to ask me what Gu Chen wanted to do.

Who knows that Gu Chen is a guy, he has to tell me, otherwise he will stay outside the city and not leave, and we won't want to go out. After a long time, the people will definitely not be able to stand it.

All the ministers were waiting for my decision, I looked down at my slightly bulging lower abdomen, it was not that I was cowardly and didn't dare to go out, but how could I go out like this? Finally, under the protest of a minister, I gritted my teeth and put on a loose regular robe, and stood on the castle tower.

"Gu Chen, are you here to give me a gift?" Gu Chen was riding on a horse, with a majestic appearance, I couldn't help but tease the atmosphere a little.

When Gu Chen saw that I finally came out, he laughed: "I thought my dear imperial brother didn't dare to come to see me." ”

"What do you want to do with such a big formation?" I clenched my fists slightly, a little nervous. In fact, everyone knows what he is going to do, but I still have to ask as usual...... But what kind of practice is this?

"Brother Huang, if someone has a blood feud with you, do you think this revenge should be avenged?" Gu Chen rode on his horse and looked up at me. In the distance, I could only see a chill in his eyes, and a hint of excitement.

"Of course I have to repay ......" After speaking, I don't think it's right, the one who has a blood feud with him is the Shen family, my mother.

"Hahaha...... Well said. Gu Chen raised his head and laughed: "Since the imperial brother said that he must take revenge, how can the younger brother let the murderer of his mother be at ease in front of his younger brother and live a high life?" ”

I held my lips and didn't want to talk to him.

"Gu Shu, as long as you hand over Shen Jingxiao to me, I will lead the troops back to the fiefdom and be my king of Nanling with peace of mind. Otherwise, don't blame me for not caring about the brotherhood we grew up with. ”

Want me to hand over my queen mother? How is that possible? I won't give my queen mother to him, okay! Yu Qing, this is my biological mother, even if she has done something wrong, that is my mother. Yu Li, she is the queen mother of a country, if I can't even protect my own mother, then what qualifications do I have to be the emperor?

"You want to avenge your mother's concubine with the life of your mourning family?" The queen mother didn't know when she was standing by my side, she was dressed in a phoenix robe, even if her sideburns were a little white, but she was still domineering: "A concubine is a concubine, and she will never be on the stage, the mourning family gave her death, let her serve the emperor as soon as possible, maybe she should be grateful to the mourning family." ”

Me: "......" I don't know why, after so many years, the queen mother's feelings for her father have faded, but her resentment towards Yang Shufei has not diminished at all, is this a woman's careful eye?

"Shen Jingxiao!" Gu Chen glared at the queen mother viciously: "You are not allowed to say that about my mother's concubine." ”

"At the beginning, it was really a moment of soft-heartedness and did not execute you together, otherwise there would be no today."

Gu Chen was probably mad by my mother, he laughed: "Haha, Shen Jingxiao, you have backbone, but your brother is not like you, he is crying and begging me to let him go!" ”

My mother and I both changed our faces, it turned out that my uncle was really arrested by him!

Gu Chen said in a deep voice: "Since you don't have the slightest intention of repenting, then don't blame me for being rude." Shen Jingxiao, do you think that for so many years, what you two brothers and sisters have done behind your father's back, others don't know? Gu Chen looked at me: "Gu Shu...... Do you want your little secret to be exposed to the sun? His gaze slowly moved from my face to my stomach, his eyes sharp.

I subconsciously protected my stomach and took a sharp step back.

Chapter 56: Forcing the Palace

Gu Chen said, give me a day to think about it, either hand over my mother, or make the secrets I have hidden for many years public.

What else is there to think about, I don't have a choice at all.

Gu Chen had long known that I was a woman, and according to his previous words, even his father knew it, but they didn't say it. The queen mother is smarter than me, and she has thought of everything I can think of. So since she came back from the city gate, the queen mother's face has been ugly, and even a little sad.

She was sad that her husband, whom she had loved for so many years, had used herself to the point of being completely incorporeal.

"It's better to hand over the mourning family to Gu Chen." The queen mother looked at me: "The mourning family doesn't believe that he dares to touch the mourning family." ”

I rubbed my head: "Queen Mother, are you stupid?" He dared to raise troops to besiege the city, is there anything else he doesn't dare? Whether I hand you over or not, he will usurp the throne. After all, this is the throne left to him by his father. ”

The queen mother looked at me guiltily: "I'm sorry, the emperor, it's the queen mother who is sorry for you." The mourning family didn't expect him to be so ruthless...... It turned out to be ......"

I waved my hand: "Don't say it, I don't have much affection for him anyway." "I'm just having a headache about what to do now, if only Yan Xiaoran was here.

In the dark, the whole palace was brightly lit, but I didn't feel sleepy at all. The Queen Mother was by my side, holding my hand tightly. I have prepared for the worst, if Gu Chen really wants this throne, give it to him.

"Oh no!" Shen Qing suddenly rushed in: "Your Majesty, I don't know who secretly opened the city gate, the army of the King of Nanling is now entering the city." ”

The queen mother was shocked, but I was not surprised at all. There are Gu Chen's people in the court, and sooner or later this city gate will be self-defeating.

"General Shen, I want to ask you for something."

Shen Qing was a little stunned, but immediately said: "Your Majesty has something to say, as long as the minister can do it, he will definitely die." ”

I laughed and said, "Of course I don't want you to die, who will protect my queen mother when you die?" I want you to take my mother and queen to go first, and leave immediately, you can go north to find Yan Xiaoran. ”

Shen Qing's face turned red again, he nodded and asked again, "Won't Your Majesty come with us?" ”

The queen mother also looked at me: "Emperor." ”

I shook my head: "Don't worry, I can walk away alone, I just want to see Gu Chen for the last time." You must go, and you must not let Gu Chen catch it. ”

Shen Qing clenched his fists: "After the minister sends the Queen Mother to a safe place, he will come to pick you up." ”

I waved my hand: "No need, I have lived in this palace for so many years, I am familiar with every corner, it is too easy to get out, you can take my mother and go first." ”

Shen Qing was no longer entangled, he looked at the queen mother with a red face: "Queen Mother, please go with the ministers." ”

The queen mother still looked at me worriedly, and I pushed her: "Go quickly, I'll go to you soon." ”

After the queen mother and Shen Qing left, I also returned to the dormitory and prepared to pack my things. When I go out, of course, I have to bring some more silver taels, if I can, I will take the entire treasury away, so that it will not be cheap Gu Chen. But now it's a flight, not a tour, and I have to take all the silver tickets I've saved over the years.

I was going to change into a simple and easy to run clothes, and then put on a dragon robe to meet Gu Chen. It's just that I'm a little irritable to do this alone, if only a little maid helped.

"Your Majesty, do I need me to help you?" Suddenly a voice sounded behind me, and I turned my head to look.

It turned out to be a little pink.

"Why didn't you go with Shen Qing?" I was surprised.

"The general asked me to stay." Xiao Taohong stepped forward and said with red eyes: "The slave doesn't want to see His Majesty fighting alone." ”

My head hurts, and I don't want to ink with her at this time, so I waved my hand directly: "Then come here." ”

I took off the regular clothes on my body, and deliberately took off the dirty clothes as well, so that little peach could see my breasts. Xiao Taohong looked at it blankly, dazed and overwhelmed: "Your Majesty, you ...... You ......"

I nodded, "You read that right, I'm a woman." "I changed my clothes, and little Peach was still stunned.

"If you can't accept it, leave now." I said, "If you can accept it, quickly help me put on the dragon robe, and we will meet an important guest later." ”

Little Peach snapped back to her senses: "Oh oh......" She took the dragon robe hanging on the side and helped me put it on.

I put on all my clothes and asked Pink to help me pack a few clothes. After packing up all the qiē, I took a deep breath.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good, all the ministers and the King of Nanling have broken into the palace." The little eunuch outside shouted anxiously.

"I know, I'll be right away."

One last glance around, where I've been living, I suddenly remembered something. I ran back to my room, and the jar of copper coins under the bed was still there. I took out the copper money jar, grabbed a handful and put it on my body, and then handed the rest to Little Pink: "You take it, you should use it." ”

Xiao Taohong was still a little uncomfortable, but nodded obediently: "En, the slave knows." ”

"You go to the back of the Jinluan Hall and wait for me, and when I see Gu Chen, we will meet over there."

"Okay." Xiao Taohong nodded solemnly: "The slave will go now." ”

I'm afraid that the eunuchs and maids in the palace all know that my position as the emperor can't be kept, but for the sake of me who is usually good to them, none of them have fallen into the ground, and there are even a few little eunuchs who are willing to drive the palace for me for the last time.

I entered from the back of the Golden Luang Hall and appeared in front of everyone in a high-profile manner. Below was a brightly lit field, with Gu Chen standing at the front and the ministers on the other side.

"I thought the royal brother was going to be a turtle with a shrunken head."

I laughed, "If I were a turtle with a shrunken head, wouldn't you be the tortoise's brother?" ”

Gu Chen: "......" He choked for a while, and then said viciously: "Gu Shu, at this time, you don't feel the slightest bit afraid?" He glanced at the ministers: "Do you know that the emperor you have worshiped all these years is actually a woman?" ”

As soon as his words fell, the ministers looked at me in shock, and then they talked about it.

I was unmoved, I had already planned to break the jar. "What's wrong with the woman?" I raised my voice: "After □□ died, his queen ruled for many years, and it was not until after the death of the queen □□ that the imperial power returned to the hands of the royal descendants. Regardless of men and women, the one who can rule the world is a good emperor. ”

"So...... Gu Shu, do you think you can cure the world? Gu Chen looked at me with a sneer.

I shrugged: "I can't, so you forced the palace, didn't I." ”

Gu Chen gritted his teeth: "I'm not forcing the palace, I'm just here to get back a piece of qi that belongs to me." He took out a clear holy decree from his bosom: "This is the edict of my father." Gu Chen took out the holy decree: "It's better for Zhao Zhongshu to read it for everyone." ”

Zhao Zhongshu trembled and took the holy decree, unfolded it, looked up at me, and then read it word by word. I didn't listen to it, but it was to the effect. I was a girl, but at that time, I was forced by the high position of my uncle, and I had to be made the crown prince. If one day in the future, Gu Chen can have the opportunity to take power, he can inherit the unification and ascend the throne as the emperor.

"Gu Shu, my father has long known that you are a girl." Gu Chen looked at me: "He already knew about the conspiracy of the Shen family brothers and sisters, and then he just planned it." ”

I sneered, Father, Father, I really paved all the roads for Gu Chen. Once, I wondered more than once that if my father knew that I was a girl, he would love me as much as my uncle loved Bao Jia, but now it seems that this qiē is just my wishful thinking.

The father of the year knew that I was a girl, but he didn't expose it, because he knew that his power was inferior to his uncle. So I can only swallow my anger and admit the identity of my prince, and then work hard to teach Gu Chen in secret, teach him strategy and the way to be the emperor, hoping that one day his beloved son can ascend to the throne of the emperor.

I smiled: "So, are you here today to regain your belongings?" "I looked at him, at his arrogant and conceited look.

"Yes, today I not only want to avenge my mother's concubine, but also to regain a piece that belongs to me." Gu Chen replied passionately: "I want to get back everything I lost." ”

"So you robbed your uncle halfway, and now you are still threatening me to hand over my mother?" I looked at him with pity, Gu Chen had already been blinded by the hatred of many years ago: "What about Bao Jia? What are you doing to your uncle, what should Bao Jia do? Don't you care how she feels? ”

"Shen Baojia?" Gu Chen laughed three times: "She is the Shen family, you don't really think I'm in love with her, right?" She's just a pawn for my revenge, and now she's dispensable to me. ”

I slowly took a step back and sighed slowly: "Gu Chen, it's really wrong for my queen mother to kill your mother, but she was forced to do so." The first emperor favored Concubine Yang Shu, and the queen mother had to face her husband's ruthlessness on the one hand, and also faced the complaints of other concubines in the palace. The first emperor loved you and loved you, and I put in so much effort to get his little attention, but it was useless. No mother wants to see her children ignored by her husband like this. The first emperor is dead, and she can only vent her resentment on your mother. ”

"You think it's the Shen family's high position and cholera dynasty, but you don't know that if it weren't for Shen Jinzhong, the current Nanling would have long since ceased to exist." I glanced at the ministers under the stairs: "Back then, the emperor favored Yang Shufei, who was absurd and unreasonable, and guided the court, but fortunately, Shen Jinzhong controlled it in time." "It is precisely because of this little power that my uncle's power is getting bigger and bigger, and he is becoming more and more greedy, so far it is out of control.

"Do you think that the current throne is yours, and this qiē is all yours?" I laughed at him fiercely: "Nanling can have today, it is my grandfather's southern and northern expeditions, and my uncle has been worried day and night to stabilize it." I raised my hand and pointed to the glittering Jinluan Hall behind me: "All the qiē here are maintained by your enemy, the Shen family, and have nothing to do with you. ”

I don't know if Gu Chen listened to what I said, whether he could listen to it or not, I had to leave. I waved my hand at him: "If you want it, then give it back to you, I'm tired of it anyway." With that, I disappeared in front of everyone's eyes at a breakneck speed.

Vaguely, I also heard Gu Chen's unwilling roar: "Gu Shu, you can't escape." ”
