After Chang Gui came out of the queen, he explained a few words to Xiao Lizi and returned to Zhengyang Palace. The emperor was still lying there alone, and Lotus didn't know where she had gone. Chang Gui knelt down and thought about what had happened before filling the brazier. Now that it has been figured out that General Yanlan has discovered Gong Zhu's traces before being charged by the queen, and ordered them to be killed quickly, the queen's additional order is behind, I don't know if Gong Zhu and they are still safe now.

Thinking like this, Chang Gui threw all the paper money in his hand into the brazier, looked at the emperor who was lying quietly, and said to himself,

"Your Majesty, you must bless the little prince and godfather for their safe arrival."

The sky in the Northern Qi Palace always seemed to be darker, and there were always clouds covering it to block the sunlight. Even from the foot of the palace gate, it looks lifeless, and from a distance, it looks like it is buried in the fog. The people of the Northern Qi Kingdom did not have much affection for the death of the emperor, and a few familiar neighbors and friends gathered around to discuss who would succeed to the throne. Originally, everyone thought that it would be Lord Yanlan who would succeed to the throne, but the inexplicable queen issued such a decree.

The much-talked-about prince is still on his way.

Beiqi's hand held the hand of the seventh girl tightly, and looked at the seventh girl who was unconscious in a high fever in distress, as if she was about to cry. Gong Zhu patted Beiqi on the shoulder and took him into his arms.

"Okay, Beiqi, don't be sad anymore, your mother will be fine, grandpa promised you, it will be."

Beiqi sniffed, but he was no longer crying.

"But grandma, she."

When it came to this matter, Gong Zhu began to be sad again.

Because of the urgency of time, Chunfu Granny was not properly placed, but the body of Chunfu Granny was buried near the official road. Gong Zhu felt sorry for Chunfu Granny in his heart, for so many years, Chunfu Granny has always been so dedicated to him and everyone. And he never brought anything good to Chunfu's mother-in-law, broke her original plan, and didn't even have a place to be buried in the end.

"Okay, Beiqi, didn't grandpa sue you, there will definitely be sacrifices. As long as you can ascend to the throne in Northern Qi, these are worth it. ”

Bei Qi seriously thought about what Gong Zhu said to him while pretending to be asleep. Since he was a child, he has had many guests, and he is no stranger to the Northern Qi Kingdom and the emperor, and there are many adults who have told many bizarre stories. He also once thought that his background must be unusual, otherwise he would not even be chased and killed, and he would have to flee for his life. But he didn't expect that he was the prince of the Northern Qi Kingdom, the only son of the 'childless emperor'.

"Grandpa, do I have to inherit the throne? Isn't it good to continue living like before? With you, with grandma, with mother, and Uncle Flowerface. We stayed in the little inn and listened to all sorts of things from the guests. We also know the prince of Yongchang, we can go and play with Princess Qixin, isn't that good? Then grandma wouldn't have died, and my mother wouldn't be what she is now. ”

Beiqi was about to shed tears as he spoke, and Gong Zhu smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"Silly boy, how can you do whatever you want in this world. Everyone has their own destiny, and it has been predetermined since you were born. You think very well, let's just live such a dull life, grandpa wants to too. However, because you were born as a prince, you are destined not to live like that. If you don't do anything, you'll be killed, and everyone around you will be hurt. ”

"Then I don't want to be a prince!"

Beiqi shouted loudly. Miyatake smiled again,

"As I said, everyone has their own destiny, they can't be chosen, they are all predestined. Northern Qi, you are the prince is already something that cannot be changed, what you have to do is to ascend to the throne and return the people to a peaceful and prosperous world. It's your responsibility. ”

After Gong Zhu finished speaking, the atmosphere in the car became heavy. Beiqi lowered his head and stopped talking, looking at the seven girls quietly. Gong Zhu was also very distressed when he saw the appearance of Northern Qi, touched Northern Qi's head, and said,

"Northern Qi, you'll understand when you're older."

Flower Face drove the car that was hard to find outside, walking slowly and leisurely. This is also Gong Zhu's order, hoping to wait for the rescue sent by the prince of Yongchang, but he has not waited. A few days later, they arrived under the walls of the Northern Qi Palace, and no one came to contact them.

As soon as they entered the city, the men who had been guarding them were replaced by new ones. There were also some disputes at the time of the handover. The people sent by the queen insisted on taking people away, and the people who had been following them insisted on handing them over to General Yanlan. In the end, it was the queen who came prepared, and called out more people to dispose of them. They were able to enter the city and know that they had reached the Northern Qi Palace.

During this process, Gong Zhu did not speak, and he was not clear about the situation now. And even if he knew who was in his favor, no one would listen to him. However, after the dispute, Gong Zhu has been hugging Beiqi tightly and hugging Beiqi as much as possible with his body.

Hua Mian was also vigilantly observing the things around him, and he didn't dare to let his guard down. The seventh girl, who had been in a coma with a high fever, also became more manic at this time, I don't know what kind of dream she had, she just frowned and refused to let go of her fists.

When the palace gate was opened, they were greeted not by Chang Gui, the grand duke of the Northern Qi Palace, but by the little plum sent by the queen.

"Welcome the prince back to the palace."

Xiao Lizi took a group of people behind him and knelt on the ground respectfully to salute after seeing the carriage, and Gong Zhu told Beiqi not to make a sound. The people didn't know what to do, so they spoke in a loud voice. But there was still no response.

Xiao Lizi no longer knelt down, and first stood up and said to the people behind.

"The prince must be tired when he comes back from a long journey. Now the little one will take the prince to Zhengyang Palace to meet the emperor, and the queen said. Today, you can casually live in Zhengyang Palace, serve the emperor well, and do your filial piety. Wait for tomorrow, before the emperor's funeral, the queen will pass you over. Now, the little one will take you to Zhengyang Palace first. ”

As soon as Xiao Lizi waved his hand, everyone stood up and followed behind the carriage. The palace gate opened, and the places where the carriages passed seemed to be sprinkled with some sunlight because of the wide open palace gate. The prince of the Northern Qi Kingdom finally returned to the Northern Qi Palace, and the prince who had been wandering outside for nine years returned to his home. Although the family is still clouded, it is full of hope because of his return.
