Chapter 23: Change
The study was discussing Duan Ming's matter, and suddenly a person who looked like an attendant hurriedly walked in, handed a letter in his hand to the old lady, and the attendant whispered: "Master, there is news from Kyoto." ”
The old lady carefully opened the letter, Liu Yingxue watched from the side, and couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, could it be that he just came here to talk about Duan Ming, could it be that he had an accident in the army?
The atmosphere suddenly became condensed, she didn't dare to say anything, silently watched the old lady's face become cloudy, and her right hand trembled slightly when she picked up the letter, and she didn't know what kind of content the letter was, which made the old lady excited like this.
Suddenly, the old lady Fu spit out a mouthful of blood, and the letter paper in his hand fell to the ground lightly, Gao Mingxuan rushed forward with an arrow step, and supported the swaying Taifu.
"Go get a doctor." Gao Mingxuan gave an urgent order to the attendant and helped the old lady to sit back on the mahogany chair.
Liu Yingxue picked up the letter on the ground, and inadvertently swept it to the middle, with the words His Majesty being captured, she didn't dare to look at it anymore, and carefully put the letter on the desk.
Her head exploded with a buzz, those few words were terrible, far more terrible than Duan Ming's death on the battlefield, His Majesty's capture meant that there was almost no hope for the Beili Kingdom, where should they go in the future, what should they do with the remaining nobles?
Gao Mingxuan handed the old lady a cup of tea, and after drinking half a cup of tea, the old lady finally eased up, and said with a long sigh: "If Your Majesty listens to me as soon as possible, how can there be today's disaster, and the future days will be even more unpeaceful. ”
"Elder Duan, what happened? Could it be that there are other bad pools? Gao Mingxuan asked in an anxious tone, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
The old lady's face turned pale, stroked her chest, and said breathlessly; "Your Majesty was taken away by the rebels, and now life and death are uncertain, the only consolation is that the prince fled to the east, it should be safe at present, all the heavy responsibilities are placed on the prince, the prince has a pure temperament, but now Beili is full of holes, I don't know if he can hold it."
This matter is like a thunderbolt from the sky, the people who escaped from Kyoto always think that as long as Your Majesty is still there, they can always recover Kyoto, and now that Your Majesty has fallen into the hands of the rebels, I am afraid that it will be very difficult to recover Kyoto, and Your Majesty will become a bargaining chip between the rebels and the prince, and the situation is very unfavorable.
When Liu Yingxue heard this scene, her little face turned pale, as long as she thought of the rebels who killed her father and brother, she was so arrogant to live, her heart was like a needle prick, if she was a man, she would fight to the death with the rebels.
Gao Mingxuan's face was silent, and he said after half a sound: "Elder Duan, it's time for me to make a choice, it's not a way to stay in Lingyang City all the time, maybe this place will fall." ”
She gently tugged at the corner of Gao Mingxuan's clothes, afraid that he would say something shocking.
The old lady Fu glanced at him quietly, as if she knew what he was going to say, and nodded understandingly: "Just do what you want, you can't all be shrinking turtles, if I were younger, I would make the same choice as Duan Ming." ”
As he spoke, he took out a waist card from the cabinet and solemnly instructed: "This is my previous waist card, show it to the prince, he will trust you." ”
Gao Mingxuan took the waist card with both hands, held it in his hand like a baby, and said with a solemn face: "I will not live up to Old Duan's expectations." ”
