"Aiqing came to my imperial study on purpose, she must have something to say?" Emperor Qi sat down behind the imperial case and raised his eyes to look at the white-clothed young man who came in behind him.

Everything in the court, Gu Yuancheng has already seen everything in his eyes, what Qingzhi wants to do, he also guessed probably, now only by retreating bravely from the rapids, can he and Qingzhi really have a future.

"Your Majesty," Gu Yuancheng bowed his head and knelt down, "The war with Buda has ended, and the situation above the court is basically stable, so Wei Chen wants to ......"

"Do you want to leave me behind, leave behind the Qi Kingdom, which has only improved a little, and elope with the prime minister of the Qin Kingdom?" Without waiting for Gu Yuancheng to finish speaking, Emperor Qi took the first step to say what he thought in his heart.

It's just that there is no blame in his words, not even shock or anger.

As the emperor of the Qi Kingdom, how could he not see what his most trusted courtier was thinking?

Gu Yuancheng's body stiffened.

"I beg your Majesty to grant me." He touched his head to the ground and bowed down.

"Yuancheng, ......," Emperor Qi suddenly sighed.

He stood up from behind the royal case and walked to the window.

The light from the windows was soft, and the wind was not as cold as it had been when it had snowed.

"Do you remember the promise you made to me once, on Qishan?"

Gu Yuancheng's face turned pale, but he still strengthened his determination.

"I know that it was Wechen who broke his promise back then...... If Your Majesty is angry, then give Weichen to death. ”

Emperor Qi's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he turned around to look at the young prime minister who was prostrate on the ground, and the fist in his sleeve tightened and tightened.

"Would you rather die for her sake?"

Without the slightest hesitation, he said, "Yes." ”

Emperor Qi's face quickly darkened, he looked at Gu Yuancheng fixedly, and at the end, he walked back to the imperial case, picked up a fold book placed on the top, bent down and handed it to him.

"Look at it."

Gu Yuancheng didn't move.

When Emperor Qi saw him like this, he suddenly shook his head and laughed.

"I originally wanted to promise Huizhong to you, first, to break her thoughts, and secondly, to break your thoughts, you are my prime minister of Daqi, she is my favorite sister, you are together, isn't it a match made in heaven?"

"It's a pity......" Emperor Qi lowered his eyes slightly and sighed heavily.

"Once this person has a thought, it is not easy to change."

"You and Huizhong are like this, and so am I......" Emperor Qi laughed in a low voice, as if mocking.

Back then, if he hadn't been so selfish, knowing that he couldn't accompany her for the rest of his life, he still married her into the palace, how could she have been scared for so many years?

After all, he couldn't live up to her infatuation.

Gu Yuancheng's heart moved, and as soon as he looked up to look at Emperor Qi, he saw that he suddenly trembled, and then fell to the ground with a bang.

"Li Dai!"

Gu Yuancheng didn't have time to get up, so he rushed to his side half-crawling.

Emperor Qi's face was no longer colorless, his eyes were sloppy, his lips were white, and his whole body was trembling slightly, as if the sharp pain of the Gu poison had overwhelmed him.

But he's still trying to endure it.

"Li Dai, don't die, think about the people of Qi Kingdom, think about the queen mother, think about your children......"

"Someone, someone, Doctor Xuan! Xuan Taiyi! Go to Xuan Taiyi! ”

"Yichen, go and bring Mei Yan over!"

Gu Yuancheng put Emperor Qi's left hand on his shoulder, half-framed and half-supported him to the soft couch behind the screen.

"Yuancheng ......" He suddenly grabbed Gu Yuancheng's arm with all his might, with a hint of pleading in his eyes, "Don't ...... Don't alarm Mu Xin......"

Gu Yuancheng knew what he meant, nodded and said, "Don't worry, the queen mother is there...... I'm not going to let people know. ”

Emperor Qi let go of his hand, closed his eyes with confidence, and continued to endure the pain that had been with him all these years.

Gu Yuancheng looked at him and suddenly remembered what he had asked him.

That was the first time he had collapsed on the bed and couldn't move because of the pain of Gu poison.

He couldn't bear to ask him, "The strength of one person is so little, for the sake of Qi Guo, are you willing to give up everything and endure this endless pain?" ”

Although his face was pale, he said so hard word by word, "I am willing, Yuan Cheng." ”

At that time, he thought, why is there always such a person in this world? Obviously, he has long been in a state of devastation and weakness, but he is willing to carry a burden that is thousands of times heavier than himself, and move forward little by little.

The footsteps are deep, but they refuse to stop.

Uncle Thirteen is like this, and so is he.

The imperial physician quickly rushed to the imperial study, and Gu Yuancheng retreated outside the screen and gave them a seat.

I wanted to go to the window to breathe, but the corner of my eye swept to the fold that Fang was in a hurry and threw on the ground, Gu Yuancheng darkened his eyes, and still stepped forward to pick it up.

But after hesitating, he didn't have the courage to open it up after all.

"Yuancheng, what's wrong with Your Majesty?" Mei Yan hurriedly rushed in and opened his mouth to ask. 67

Gu Yuancheng subconsciously hid the fold in his sleeve.

"Your Majesty is inside, and your mind is quite conscious, so go and take a look."

Gu Yuancheng's movements were unnatural, Mei Yan could see it at a glance, but the matter was urgent, and he didn't have time to ask him what he was hiding now, so he hurriedly entered the screen.

Seeing that Mei Yan didn't ask, Gu Yuancheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He walked over to the table and sat down, reaching out to pour himself a cup of tea.

Time passed little by little like quicksand, and the sun in the sky also fell from the top of the head to the western corner, and the sunset dyed the imperial study red, and the soft glow fluttered in the breeze, as if it would dissipate in the world in the next moment.

Gu Yuancheng finally couldn't sit still, he walked to the door and pushed the door of the imperial study open.

It was not the palace Wanjing that greeted her, but the queen with a calm face.

Gu Yuancheng was shocked.

"Imperial ......"

The queen raised her hand and stopped him.

"The main palace only waits outside, not inside."

Gu Yuancheng saw the appearance of the queen holding back tears, his mood was extremely complicated, and after he bowed to her, he showed the little eunuch who was waiting for him with his eyes, and asked him to follow him.

The little eunuch didn't dare to disobey Gu Yuancheng's intentions, so he could only obediently follow behind.

When he got to a corner, Gu Yuancheng stopped and turned to look at him, "When did the queen mother come?" ”

The little eunuch trembled, bent down and replied, "The queen mother, my lord, you are in a hurry, and the imperial doctor will come soon, okay...... It seems to be for the emperor...... The emperor sent the soup, and then the soup spilled all over the ground, and the mother asked us to clean up quietly, don't ...... Don't alarm inside. ”

Gu Yuancheng was stunned.

It turned out that she had been standing outside for more than three hours......

"Mother, she ......"

The little eunuch knelt down after a plop, he kowtowed desperately, and his words were full of crying, "The slave is just a sweeper outside the imperial study, and he can't stop Niangniang's decree, it was Niangniang who ordered someone to prepare a crane top red for her, and the slave really can't help it, the adult spares his life, the adult spares his life......"

"Crane top red?" Gu Yuancheng was shocked, left the little eunuch who was still kowtowing there, and hurried back.

At this time, Mei Yan happened to come out, and he was talking to the queen there, and the queen's body trembled slightly, and she barely stood up.

Gu Yuancheng's heart hanging in the air finally fell.

The queen mother did not take medicine and committed suicide immediately, and it seems that Her Majesty should be okay for the time being.

"Niangniang, the hour is not early, let the maid help you back to the palace to rest, there is a doctor here to take care of it." Gu Yuancheng stepped forward and said to the queen.

The queen's body was already weak, and now this toss made her even more tired, although she wanted to force herself to go in to see him, but she knew that what he was most worried about was her body, and she didn't want him to worry any more.

Nodding slightly, she was supported by the maid and slowly got on her phoenix chariot.

After watching the queen leave, Gu Yuancheng turned around to look at Mei Yan, "How is the situation of Your Majesty?" ”

Mei Yan calmly shook her head.

was stunned in his heart, Gu Yuancheng panicked for no reason, he wanted to make sure to Mei Yan if he was wrong about what he meant, but when he opened his mouth several times, he couldn't make a sound.

Seeing Gu Yuancheng's gaffe, Mei Yan sighed slightly, and took the initiative to say, "You don't have to worry too much, Your Majesty, he ...... If you can recuperate, you may be able to hold on for a while. ”

His heart sank suddenly, and Gu Yuancheng suddenly felt a little out of breath.

The Qi country he was thinking about had not yet been able to gain a firm foothold in the wind, frost, rain and snow, if it was ...... If...... How could he be willing?

"And ...... How many years? He asked harshly.

Mayan paused and replied, "Two years at most." ”

Gu Yuancheng raised his head and closed his eyes, but the sourness in his heart still stained his eyes red unconsciously.

"Is there really no cure?"

Although Mei Yan wants to say that there is, in the face of reality, no one can do anything.

"Your Majesty will wake up in a while, I'll go boil some medicine, although it can't be cured, it can make him feel better." Mei Yan stepped forward and patted Gu Yuancheng on the shoulder, and left by mistake.

Gu Yuancheng looked up at the majestic palace in front of him, and suddenly laughed in a low voice.

He took the fold out of his sleeve and read it word by word.

In the end, he walked into the imperial study with a blank face.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is Li Dai who knows best where his death hole is, he has obviously made up his mind and is ready to lose everything, but Li Dai can find the most lethal point from his seemingly flawless defense, just a light movement, can defeat him to the ground.

In this life, he can fail everyone, but he can't live up to him.

Because he is a generation of monarchs that Uncle Thirteen has high hopes for, because it was he who gave him a second life.

He is his eldest brother and his only relative.

He is not like Qingzhi, Qingzhi has love in his heart, but he doesn't, all he has is selfishness.

The person he loves is to get it by any means, and the person he values will not hesitate to do anything even if he gives his life.

Qingzhi is like the light in his life, but the light is always ethereal and invisible, and he can't grasp it.
