Chapter 1115: Scarlet Twilight (3)
Guo Xu was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that even if he didn't want to make trouble today, his grandfather would actually force himself to do it. My grandfather had already arranged everything, but it was all up to me. I have been hesitating and refusing to face this matter. But now, there is no way back.
"Okay, after coming, I will invite him to come to the Yanhe Hall immediately." Guo Xu shouted.
"Yes!" Zhao Yuankang shouted loudly and shouted loudly, and suddenly a large group of palace guards gathered here. Zhao Yuankang quickly gave an order, and the generals took orders and flew away.
"You...... You're going to rebel? Do you want to ...... Usurper? Hello big ...... Courage! Guo Mian, who was choked by the throat, struggled to say a few words with difficulty.
"Usurpation? That should have been my place. If you take it, I will take it back. If you want to fight me, you are asking for your own death. If I were you, I should have given up that position a long time ago, just drink and write poems every day, but if you are unwilling to do this, then you will cause a big disaster. Guo Xu sneered.
"You bastard...... You are rebellious, you dare to ...... Don't you dare...... How? You're not going to end well. Guo Mian blushed and said hoarsely.
"Hahaha, take care of yourself first. The Great Prince...... No, no...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... Hahaha, do you know your fate? Your destiny is not to become the lord of the Great Zhou, but to ...... Die here. ”
Guo Xu spoke, his hands straining. Guo Mian, who was already in a semi-comatose state, slammed his head against the stone pillars of the corridor. The back of Guo Mian's head hit the stone pillar vigorously, making a sound of something shattering, bursting out with a blood flower, and the whole person suddenly became weak, and his hands and feet immediately began to twitch. But Guo Xu didn't stop, he stuck Guo Mian's neck one by one, and hit the back of his head towards the stone pillar. Bang bang bang! Puff puff! The sound was terrifying, and with the violent impact, the back of Guo Mian's head was already in tatters, and with each blow, brains and blood splashed out, spraying snow mist in all directions.
Under the setting sun, the golden sunlight shone on the rising blood mist, which was magnificent and weird, and it was extremely gorgeous. Under the stone pillars, the petals of several pots of blooming pink flowers were soaked in blood mist, turning a blood-red color, which was indeed extremely gorgeous and beautiful.
"Your Highness, the crown prince is dead." Zhao Yuankang couldn't help but remind.
Guo Xu hit it a few more times like crazy, and then let go. The body of Guo Mian, whose head had been shattered and deformed, fell at Guo Xu's feet like a tattered bag, in fact, after the third impact, he had already died of anger.
Guo Xu's entire head and face were covered with blood, and every impact made him as terrible as the devil. At this moment, his face was covered with blood, his hands were trembling slightly, and he was panting violently.
"Your Highness!" Zhao Yuankang shouted in a low voice.
Guo Xu sighed and said in a deep voice: "Follow me, we'll ...... Go see the emperor. ”
Guo Xu returned to the emperor's bedroom, Guo Chong had just closed his eyes on the soft couch and was about to take a nap for a while, when he heard Guo Xu shouting loudly, "Father, father", and rushed into the palace.
"Why did you come back again? Chandlu, Chandlu, go see what's going on? Guo Chong shouted angrily.
But there was no answer for a long time, and Qian Delu did not know where he went. Instead, a small chamberlain walked in quickly and said in a panic: "The emperor ...... Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Huai...... He's back, he's ...... He ......"
"He's it
Is it? Tell him to go, but I don't see him, so I blast him out. Guo Chong said angrily.
Before the little chamberlain could speak, the curtains were hula, and Guo Chong had already lifted several curtains and appeared in the inner room. He shouted: "Father, do you not want to see your sons like this? The sons and ministers are leaving, and they can't see their father and the emperor in the end? Or are you going to blast me out? Father, your heart is so ruthless. ”
Guo Chong sat up with difficulty, he saw Guo Xu covered in blood, with a presumptuous smile on his face, and said in astonishment: "You...... You are bold, what is this in you? ”
"Father, this is blood, you see, the sons are covered in blood. Father, guess whose blood it is? Erchen just killed a man outside, and this blood is his blood. Guess whose blood is it? Guo Xu showed a row of teeth and smiled strangely and proudly.
"Who? Who did you kill? Are you crazy? Guo Xu, are you crazy? Guo Chong was shocked and reprimanded.
"Erchen is not crazy, my father can't guess it, Erchen will tell you, it is Guo Mian's blood. The prince you set up has been killed by me, and his head has been smashed flat, which is really miserable. Father, your crown prince is gone. Hahaha. Your crown prince is gone, what can I do? Guo Xu bared his teeth and smiled.
"Zhao Yuankang, Zhao Yuankang. Take down Guo Xu. Someone is coming, but not coming. Guo Chong roared loudly, pounding the bed of the soft couch and banging it.
However, no one came in. Guo Chong was stunned, and suddenly the people around him seemed to be gone, which made him feel a deep fear.
"Father, shhh...... Be quiet, don't be so noisy, okay? Is my father going to call Zhao Yuankang? Just call for you. Zhao Yuankang! If you don't come in yet, the emperor will call you. Guo Xu stared at the panicked Guo Chong and smiled, and said.
Zhao Yuankang's figure slowly appeared behind the curtain and bowed to Guo Chong.
"The minister has seen the emperor and His Royal Highness."
"Zhao Yuankang, the emperor wants you to take me, I killed the prince, the emperor wants you to kill me, what do you say?" Guo Xu said with a smile.
Zhao Yuankang said in a deep voice: "The prince is innocent of death, and it is a righteous move for His Royal Highness King Huai to kill him." His Royal Highness King Huai is the lord of the Great Zhou. ”
"What?" Guo Chong was shocked and had goosebumps all over his body, and in an instant, he understood everything. He understood everything. The most terrible thing happened to him, Guo Xu rebelled, he wanted to seize the throne, he killed Guo Mian. The one thing I feared and hated the most happened. Zhao Yuankang was actually a traitor beside him, and he didn't find out about it.
"Guo Xu, are you going to usurp the throne and rebel? You are so bold, do you know what you are doing? Hurry up and stop the horse, are you crazy? Guo Chong shouted angrily.
"Father, what is rebellion? Obviously, my father took the initiative to abdicate and passed on to me, and it is too ugly to say that he usurped the throne and rebelled. It's obviously ...... The crown prince fell to his death in the palace, and his father was sad and sad, and he had no mental politics, so it was passed on to me. Father, what do you think of this story? Guo Xu said with a smile,
"Rebel, you rebel, I won't pass on the throne to you, don't you think. If you have the courage to kill your father and kill the king, I want you to keep a crime of killing the king and killing your father, so that you will be infamous through the ages. Guo Chong shouted angrily.
"Father, don't you really force me to do this? If you really force me, I can do anything. The royal brothers have all been killed by me, do I still care about killing others? I'm reading my father's father
Treat me well on weekdays, and there is still a trace of licking for me, so I refuse to do something, but you don't want to force me. I'm going to kill people, I'm going to kill a lot of people. What Concubine Rong, what queen mother, and the queen mother, and the queen mother, and ...... Your recently acquired daughter, Princess Green Dance. The child will not be able to stop killing it. Father, in fact, it is the same whether you pass on the throne or not, and now that matter, do you still have a choice? Guo Xu said with a sneer.
Guo Chong almost fainted, he tried his best to calm down, turned his head to look at Zhao Yuankang and said: "Zhao Yuankang, I treat you well, you have been by my side for many years, why would you participate in the rebellion?" Kill this rebel for me. I am not to blame for the past, but I will make you a privy envoy and make you a duke. ”
Zhao Yuankang knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry, the minister has never been the emperor's person, the minister is Lu Xiang's person." Today's matter is irreparable, the emperor should know the current affairs, and give way to His Royal Highness King Huai. ”
Guo Chong exclaimed in astonishment: "You are ...... Lu Zhongtian's people? How come I don't know? Lu Zhongtian wants you to do this? Lu Zhongtian also participated in the rebellion? ”
"Father, everything was arranged by my grandfather, in fact, it was time to do it a few days ago, but the child has been hesitating. Of course, my grandfather was involved, because he had no choice. He persuaded you to make me the crown prince, and you want to listen to that Lin Jue, then it can only be like this. Father, you forced all this, and we can't be blamed. Guo Xu said in a deep voice.
Guo Chong scolded sharply: "It's all a group of chaotic ministers and thieves, I'm blind, and I don't even know your wolf ambitions." Zhao Yuankang, I put my heart into you, and that's how you repay me. It's good, it's good. ”
Zhao Yuankang sighed and said: "Your Majesty, you really have nothing to say to the minister, the minister has been promoted step by step from a lieutenant colonel to today's position, all of which are supported by the emperor." But...... Lu Xiang saved the minister's life and treated the minister as a son, and the minister couldn't help but repay his kindness. When the minister was young, his family changed, his parents were killed, and it was difficult for the minister to live. At that time, it was Lu Xiang who took in the minister, avenged the revenge of his parents, and sent the minister to the forbidden army as a soldier. The ministers can have today, and the roots are all given by Lu Xiang. Therefore, although the emperor is very good to the minister, the minister only has this loyalty, so he can only serve one person. How the minister wished that there was no such thing as today, but this was beyond the minister's control. If the emperor had made His Royal Highness King Huai the crown prince, wouldn't there be all these disputes? So far, what else can the minister say? Your Majesty, please forgive your ministers for the crime of disloyalty. ”
Zhao Yuankang was originally an orphan in the Jingcheng well, and his parents died when he was a teenager and he lived on the streets. Lu Zhongtian acted in a difficult way, took precautions, and searched for such a teenager to take him in in many ways. Avenge them, teach them martial arts, and train them to be their own diehards. There are more than 30 people in a similar situation to Zhao Yuankang, and most of these people are now scattered in various important positions in the military and government. There are more than a dozen generals in the forbidden army alone.
Zhao Yuankang was the luckiest one among them, he joined the forbidden army as a soldier, and he had excellent luck all the way, and became a captain in a few years. Guo Chong, who was still the crown prince that year, traveled and mobilized the forbidden army to escort him, and Zhao Yuankang led the staff of the headquarters to take on this responsibility. Afterwards, Guo Chong asked Zhao Yuankang to come to his side and became the deputy head of the palace's personal guards. After Guo Chong ascended the throne, Zhao Yuankang soon became the commander of the palace to protect Guo Chong. became one of Guo Chong's most trusted people.
