Chapter 513: Fake Death
Lin Qingqing and the three of them waited for half a pillar of incense at the door of the demand, and only a few people came out inside, and the father-in-law next to the emperor sent the adults of the imperial platform out.
Lin Qingqing hurriedly greeted him and hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, we have something very important to report to Your Majesty, please help us report it." ”
Xiao Quanzi glanced at her, his eyes fell on Lu Zhe and Sheng Suqin behind her, and quickly said with a smile: "Everyone, please wait a moment, I will go in and report immediately." ”
He didn't want to offend these people, so he quickly went in and reported.
Gu Zhao was still thinking about what he had just said to the adults of Yushitai, and pinched his eyebrows with his forehand supporting his head with a headache, and when he heard Xiao Quanzi's report, he subconsciously didn't want to deal with it, waved his hand and said, "If there is anything to talk about tomorrow, I still have a lot of government affairs today." ”
Xiao Quanzi weighed it, quietly glanced at Gu Zhao, and said softly: "Your Majesty, maybe it's really urgent, I see that Miss Lin is about to cry, and Lord Lu and Miss Sheng are also here, don't delay anything." ”
When Gu Zhao heard that Lu Zhe and Sheng Suqin were also coming, he inevitably became concerned, and felt that maybe it was really a big deal.
Although his eyes were tired, he waved his hand after thinking for a moment and said directly, "That's it, let them in." ”
Xiao Quanzi quickly went to bring people in.
As soon as Lin Qingqing entered the imperial study, Xiao Quanzi had just closed the door and left, she knelt on the ground, and said in fear: "Your Majesty, you can save Ah Mian quickly, she is in danger now, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have concealed this matter and brought disaster to Ah Mian." ”
Gu Zhao was completely stunned for a moment, his eyes looked at Lin Qingqing who was kneeling in front of him almost in confusion, and he frowned and said, "What are you doing, if you make it clear, how can the master be in danger." ”
Lin Qingqing didn't dare to raise his head, he only felt that his heart was about to be suppressed and he couldn't breathe, his heart hurt, and his tone was very low: "Your Majesty, Liu Ce's rebellion was planned by someone with him, and that person is the crown prince of Nanzhou Kingdom, I overheard their conversation before, and I originally wanted to tell this matter." ”
At the end of her speech, her voice was slightly trilled: "But the prince of Nanzhou Kingdom threatened me with my family and the glory of the family, I didn't dare to take risks, so they were dangerously spying on Ah Mian, they wanted to know Ah Mian's every move, in order to break the relationship between Ah Mian and His Majesty, the prince of Nanzhou Kingdom was very interested in Ah Mian, and after the plan failed, he said that he would bring Ah Mian back to Nanzhou." ”
Sheng Suqin reacted as quickly as possible, pointed at Lin Qingqing and asked, "After the plan failed, why didn't you tell this matter earlier, you are really ......?"
Lin Qingqing also blamed himself, and his voice was already crying: "Do you think I don't want to?" But at that time, the prince of Nanzhou and Gong Qianxue were still in the capital, and they were monitoring me all the time, even if I went to the palace, I had to tell them in every detail, where did I get my freedom? Moreover, I thought that as long as Ah Mian stayed in the palace and stayed in the capital, he would not care about what happened. ”
Gu Zhao also reacted that this matter was mostly true, he frowned, and his tone was a little more aggressive: "The prince of Nanzhou Kingdom is lurking in the capital, and no one in the whole capital is aware of it. ”
In the end, Gong Yu Ming is too good at disguise, or his people are too useless.
Lu Zhe immediately asked for his life: "Your Majesty, the top priority now is to send troops out of the city to rescue the princess, maybe they have time to act, and at least there is a forbidden army around Niangniang, it should not be to the point of no relief." ”
Gu Zhao nodded approvingly, quickly took out the name tag beside him, and solemnly handed it to Lu Zhe: "Yes, Lu Zhe, I order you to immediately take the elite troops out of the city to protect the princess." ”
"Yes, the minister will definitely bring the princess back safely." Lu Zhe knelt on the ground and took the token, turned around and left quickly.
Lin Qingqing was still kneeling on the ground, already crying into a tearful person.
Sheng Suqin frowned slightly, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I'll go back first and see if I can find a way to help." ”
Gu Zhao didn't have the time to deal with her now, so he nodded perfunctorily, his gaze always stayed on Lin Qingqing, and after looking at it for a while, he said helplessly: "Don't cry, tell me everything you overheard before." ”
He suspected that many people were in league with Liu Ce, but he never thought that Liu Ce would dare to collude with the prince of Nanzhou to plot rebellion, he was really too bold, he had been struggling to find evidence before, and now Lin Qingqing has become the most critical witness, but Gong Yuming can't catch it, and Liu Ce is very likely not to admit his guilt.
Lin Qingqing stretched out his hand and wiped his tears, slowly recalled the events of that day, and talked to Gu Zhao from beginning to end.
In Songyan County, the news of Liu Ce's arrest came, and the people outside Songyan County who were originally sent by Liu Ce to monitor this group of people instantly lost their backbone and were in chaos.
Qinglan and Qingyun didn't dare to delay, they discussed with Song Yi right away, they wanted to return to the city quickly, their most important task now was to transport Gu Zhixing's body back to the capital.
Song Yi said: "Not yet, we should clean up the remnants here, now that the imperial city is in chaos, Your Majesty can't take care of this side, if we withdraw now, just let go of these traitors here, wouldn't it be a return to the mountain, but give them a chance to cultivate and recuperate, and it will be a big disaster sooner or later."

Qinglan and Qingyun naturally knew that what Song Yi said was very reasonable, but at this moment, they were more concerned about Gu Zhixing's situation.
So after a moment of silence, Qinglan said directly: "Lord Song, we know that what you said is very reasonable, but our prince ...... And the princess is still waiting in Beijing for our Song prince to go back, if this time is long, there will be too many delays. ”
Although the weather is cold now, Gu Zhixing's body has also been stored in the cold cellar intact by them, but the way back is long, and he still has to leave as soon as possible.
Song Yi's eyes changed, but he still didn't know whether he should tell these people about the plan, if he didn't say it, Qinglan and Qingyun both insisted on sending the so-called Gu Zhixing's body back to the capital to each other, then the matter here would be delayed.
Now that Liu Ce has been arrested, even if he tells the truth, the impact should not be great.
So Song Yi quickly asked all the others in the room to go out, leaving Qinglan and Qingyun behind.
Before the two of them realized what was wrong, Qingyun frowned and asked, "Does Lord Song have anything else to explain?" ”
Song Yi's face was calm, and he said calmly: "There is one thing, I think it's time to tell you the truth, the prince is not dead, and the corpse that is now in the cellar is not the prince at all, the prince is now resisting the Nanzhou people who took the opportunity to sneak attack after the border and the border army, and he is very safe now." ”
Qinglan and Qingyun were stunned, neither of them reacted much, and their eyes were confused and empty with fright.
Song Yi continued: "I can't lie to you now, I have been hiding it from you before, mainly because the prince is worried that if he knows too many people about this matter, it will affect the big plan and will be revealed in advance, so he has been hiding it, and even letting Shen Ningjie go to the capital to tell the princess this fake news is also part of the plan." ”
Qinglan finally reacted, so excited that he couldn't speak, his eyes were full of excitement, and he said in surprise: "So, the prince is fake death?" ”
Qingyun's reaction was similar to him, and his eyes were full of surprise.
Song Yi nodded and said softly: "Yes, Liu Ce has been arrested, and the big plan has been achieved, so the most important task for us now is to clear the rebels here, and then join the prince and return to Beijing together." ”
Qingyun and Qinglan were very excited at the moment, Song Yi was whatever he said, and he was also very combative, and said in unison: "So that these rebels can be eradicated, and we can go home." ”
They originally thought that they could go home for the New Year, but they were delayed here for so long, but now they know that Gu Zhixing is safe and sound, and they are naturally full of fighting spirit.
In the territory of Xisheng, the carriage was moving fast, Su Mian Huo in the car was drowsy, and he still didn't wake up, Gong Yuming was sitting next to him, and the green smoke rising from the fireplace on Brother Wang's carriage, this amount, before he reached the border of Nanzhou, Su Mian couldn't wake up.
The speed of the car slowed down, and Nan Xing turned around and whispered, "Your Highness, there is a battle report from the Songyan border. ”
Gong Yuming glanced at Su Mian sideways, didn't get out of the carriage, and only whispered, "Read." ”
Nan Xing's voice sank a little: "The border has suffered heavy losses, our people have been thighed for twenty kilometers, and if we retreat, we will probably lose a city." ”
"What?" Gong Yuming's face sank, and he couldn't sit still at all, turned over and got out of the carriage, and asked sharply, "What's the matter, isn't everything already arranged?" Songyan's army is basically Liu Ce's people, who will really resist us, why would they suffer heavy losses. ”
Originally, it was a foolproof thing, so Gong Yuming never thought that it would fail.
He firmly thought that after this time, Songyan would completely become the territory of Nanzhou, but he didn't expect to be repulsed instead.
Nan Xing was also at a loss, and could only report the news he received as soon as possible: "The battle report from Gu Lai said that a general who thought he was extremely influential suddenly appeared in Songyan's border army, and he was very good at marching and fighting, and his strategy of using troops was even more superb, and our people were defenseless and were directly caught off guard." ”
"Suddenly appeared......" Gong Yuming narrowed his eyes slightly, suddenly thought of something, his eyes suddenly became clear, and his eyes were fierce, "Homogeneity is in Songyan." ”
Before Nan Xing could react, he wondered, "Isn't he already dead?" ”
"Heh, how could he be so tolerant of death, we were all deceived by him." Gong Yuming had already reacted, his eyes were full of annoyance and anger at the moment, he was a bad move, how could he believe Liu Ce's words in the first place, thinking that Gu Zhixing was really dead.
Now it's okay, Liu Ce has been arrested, and he can't count on it at all, he has been planning in Beijing for so long, and now he is just getting out safely, and he hasn't reaped any benefits......
It's not right, Gong Yuming looked back at the carriage, at least the person Gu Zhixing cared about the most was here.
