was in a panic, and suddenly his feet tightened, and He Ge's whole person was thrown to the ground, and a huge smell of blood came to his face. Ke firmly protected her under him, his voice was low and weak, with irrepressible anger: "What are you doing here?" ”

Suddenly hearing Ke's voice, He Ge actually laughed and cried, without being stunned for a second, she stretched out her hand and hugged the person in front of her tightly. "How are you? You okay? You can't, you can't die. I only have you, only you. ”

The person on the other side was stunned for a moment, although she couldn't see her face, but the cry that she tried to suppress still reached her ears, stirring people's hearts sour, and it hurt a little. While listening to the tiger's movements, he gently patted He Ge's back with his hand, and tried his best to lower his voice to soothe: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." The ancient tree in front of us can block us for a while, and it can't pass for the time being. As he spoke, he accidentally tore the wound on his body, and couldn't help but let out a low breath.

"How are you?" He Ge's voice trembled slightly.

"I'm fine." Endure the pain coming from all over his body, and answer steadily.

As far as the current situation is concerned, although it seems to be in a desperate situation, Ke's mind is still clear.

Three days ago, he received a letter from Fu Zhe, and his mentor, Gu Jingyan, was going to come to see him. About tonight. This Gu Jingyan is his enlightenment teacher, he has been by his side since he was a child, he is academically knowledgeable, he is also good at dancing with long sleeves and long sleeves, and he is even more loyal to him, yes, he is very respected, and he always respects "Mr. Gu". Since the mutiny that year, he has never seen this Mr. Gu again, and it has been more than ten years. Suddenly got the communication of Fu Zhe, and his heart was both surprised and happy for a while, and he came at the right time.

After many years of wind and frost, Gu Jingyan has also had a lot of vicissitudes, ten years ago, he was still a Confucian celebrity, but now he is gray-haired and miserable, and his old age is gradually emerging. The only thing that remains unchanged is his cold eyes that can see through people's hearts at a glance.

"I haven't seen you for many years, how is your husband?" Respectful salute and sincere inquiry.

Gu Jingyan stepped forward to help him up, looked him up and down carefully, and said slowly: "Young master, Da'an, the old minister can be at ease." ”

For a long time, some people called him "Childe", and some people called him "sir", but no one called him that. Gu Jingyan said "Young Master", and Ke was slightly stunned. If there had been no mutiny at the age of fifteen, he would still be the crown prince of Molan in the north, and the future king of Molan.

It's a pity that he lost, and the battle for power that he lost because he was too young, too naïve, and too ignorant of power was often only in an instant. But he was not reconciled at all to lose, and he was not convinced at all. He hibernates in the markets of other countries, always for the day when he will make a comeback. For so many years, although others are not in Mo Lan, everything about Mo Lan can be known, all because of this Gu Jingyan.

Gu Jingyan is powerful, even if everyone says that he is the mentor of the abolished prince and the cronies of the abolished prince, he can still stand tall in the court of Mo Lan. This is not only because he has a heavy army in his own hands, but also because after the mutiny that year, several heterosexual vassal kings of Molan tried their best to protect him, which made the entire government and the opposition look sideways, and also gave the new prince a shock, so that no one dared to touch him easily for many years.

Gu Jingyan came here, but he had important news to tell Ke that the person who deposed him and his mother back then, his father Zhai Hao, the king of Molan, is now terminally ill, and the government of Molan is all controlled by the crown prince Zhai Xuan.

"Young master, the king has not been good since the beginning of autumn last year, and most of the government affairs are handled by the crown prince Xuan. Xuan, you know, his hands are hard and his heart is cold. Now that the king is seriously ill, the government and the opposition are the most sensitive times. Not long ago, he vigorously suppressed the power of Gongzi Shigeru, who was about to move, and forced Gongzi Shigeru to commit suicide. The power is unparalleled for a while. Gu Jingyan paused and said: "Zhai Xuan is now in charge alone, he has his own set of killing decisions, and the sons who are qualified to succeed to the throne have basically been killed, and he knows that you are not dead, so he has been looking for you." ”

"With his character, he will surely remove all obstacles before ascending the throne." Ke knows this younger brother, he has always been like this, he doesn't like flaws, and he doesn't like surprises. When he was young, there was a pillar in the palace where he lived, and there was only one place on it that was not very delicately carved, so he had all the pillars in the palace replaced, and repaired it until he was satisfied, and then moved back to the palace. It's just the minutiae that this is already the case, not to mention the big thing like the throne. "If he ascends the throne, we will not have any more way to live."

Gu Jingyan's eyes tightened like an eagle, "When I sent you away, Madam wanted to exchange her own body for you to stay away from the whirlpool of power struggle, but now it seems that it is impossible."

"How can others sleep peacefully beside the couch, and the art of the emperor should be like this. If it were me, I would also cut the grass and eradicate the roots. Ke is now very calm, "However, he is too anxious, his father is still here, he is so impatient." This is not the same as when I was a child. ”

Mo Lan's crown prince Zhai Xuan, who is now sitting in the court, is Ke's half-brother. There are two older brothers on top of Ke. One is the eldest prince Zhai En, who was also made the crown prince and died after being deposed. The second son is Zhai Mao, who committed suicide by drinking a duck mentioned in Gu Jingyan's mouth. Zhai Mao has always been not very popular with Zhai Hao, so after Zhai En was killed, he made Ke the crown prince. And the mutiny ten years ago was a conspiracy planned by Zhai Xuan and his mother in order to usurp the crown prince.

Back then, with the help of Gu Jingyan and a group of old ministers, Ke escaped from the forbidden place in the name of fake death, but Zhai Xuan somehow learned the news of Ke's death. But because of Lao Wang, he never did it. If the old king Zhai Hao dies, Zhai Xuan will definitely no longer have any scruples. This matter is not trivial, so Gu Jingyan will come in person this time.

"In order to be thorough, the young master should make plans in advance." Gu Jingyan said earnestly. "The old minister will stay in Binzhou for a while now, planning for the young master, the young master has Binzhou's customs clearance token, if there is something, you can come to the old minister at any time. The old minister will also make plans for the young master. ”

"It's Ke'er who is too incompetent, and she still hasn't achieved anything for so many years. Tired of parrying, he still has no power to fight back. Ke smiled sarcastically. He has endured it for so long, planned for so long, and in the end he still has to hide. Also, if you don't have enough chips in your hands, how can you expect to get the support of the wealthy princes who hold real power in Molan?

"Don't be like this, young master. It's also the incompetence of the old ministers. All your strength was completely eradicated back then, and it is not easy for you to be the only one who has struggled to support it until now. At the moment, it is important to preserve the strength. The Song family has a stable power in the Central Plains, and relying on them should be fine. Gu Jingyan has a long-term vision, and arranged for Ke to approach Zhong Hao early, with the protection of the Song family, Xuan will also be afraid of one or two.

When I went back, Ke walked on the quiet mountain road, with only a slight mountain breeze in my ears and the sound of insects, and my memory became extraordinarily clear.

When he heard the news that his father was seriously ill, he didn't know whether he was more sad or happy. As a father and son, naturally I can't be happy. can be used as a monarch and minister, ten years ago, his iron face was ruthless, but he still remembers it vividly. Sealing the palace, deposing, and confining, his orders came one after another, like a knife in his heart, and he didn't even give himself half a chance to defend himself. The pain in my heart is still unforgettable.
