Chapter 306: Waiting for Cao Rou's decision
Such a brisk pace and speed is like the movement of a ghost. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Now the Emperor Taishang still looks very tough, and the medicinal effect of the Life Continuation Pill does not seem to be over, and his face is also full of anger. He didn't glance at Ye Cheng, his eyes were always on the body of the Emperor of the Heavenly Ancient Kingdom, as if he could eat him.
Seeing Ye Cheng standing a little stupidly, Zhu Ziye hurriedly came over to help him, and said, "Eighth brother, what does the Emperor want to do?" ”
The long whip was taken away, and Ye Cheng gradually calmed down, realizing that it would be better to let the Emperor Taishang punish the Emperor of the Tiangu Kingdom. He looked at the broad back of the Emperor Taishang and replied to Zhu Ziye's question, "The three palace maids are dead, and the Emperor Taishang may also want to whip that bastard."
When Zhu Ziye heard such an explanation, he also calmed down and looked at the back of the Emperor Taishang with Ye Cheng.
"Great General" Emperor Taishang suddenly shouted, and at this time he had already entered the big bed, only one step away from the Emperor of the Heavenly Ancient Kingdom.
When Emperor Taishang was in power, he called Xiao Gu like this.
Xiao Gu heard the shout and immediately stepped forward, looked respectfully at the back of the Emperor Taishang next to Ye Cheng and asked, "What does the Emperor have to order?" ”
Emperor Taishang turned his back to Xiao Gu and said in a heavy tone, "General, I am about to die, I want you to promise me one thing"
Xiao Gu probably knew the importance of the matter, he knelt on one knee, folded his hands in front of him, and said respectfully, "Please ask the emperor to order, and the ministers will do their best to complete it"
The Emperor Taishang paused at this time and did not speak.
The Emperor's words made everyone fall silent, and they all wanted to know what that incident was?
But at this time, he stopped and didn't speak, making Ye Cheng feel that this matter was not very serious, and he needed to think twice before making a decision.
He looked at the back of the Emperor Taishang seriously.
But soon, the Emperor Taishang threw away the long whip in his hand, and said righteously, "I want to take advantage of this time to regain the status of the orthodox royal family and drive these unorthodox royal guys out of the imperial court, I want to ask the general to help me"
This was a great surprise to everyone!
Ye Cheng's pupils suddenly dilated, he didn't expect such a thing.
Now is indeed a favorable time to regain the imperial court, they have gone deep into the palace of the emperor of the Tiangu Kingdom through the secret passage, and they also hold the lifeblood of the emperor, it is not so difficult to regain the imperial court.
But think about it carefully, now there are people from the unorthodox royal family outside, and then look at these people now, there are more than 100 people in the Xiao family, and there are only 200 to 300 people in the white-clothed army plus Ye Cheng, if you count the white-clothed army led by the other two brothers in Baifang who are far away on the border.
The total number of people is only a few thousand.
But the white-clothed army on the border could not rush to join the battle for a while, and they could only use these three or four hundred people to fight against the enemy army outside who did not know how many people there were.
I don't know what the odds of winning are with such a huge disparity in combat power?
Xiao Gu, who was entrusted, didn't know if he thought of this, but his face showed a happy smile, as if he had been waiting for this order, he looked down at the ground, and shouted respectfully, "The Emperor Taishang wants to regain the imperial power, and the minister is willing to take the Xiao family's population of one or two hundred to smear the liver and brain of the royal family."
The thirty men of the Xiao family standing near the big bed knelt down one after another at this time, respectfully facing the emperor in the big bed. Because they were worried that they would make noise to the people outside, they didn't dare to answer loudly, and only used their bodies to show their support for the Emperor.
At this time, Cao Rou ran to the side of the Emperor Taishang and asked worriedly, "Grandpa, why did you think of regaining the imperial power now?" It's not the same as what we've been talking about before. ”
Emperor Taishang looked sideways at Cao Rou and said lightly, "Little granddaughter, I knew that our previous communication was to let the imperial power flow away from the orthodox royal family, but when I saw the three dead palace maids, my grandfather still felt that he couldn't do it." Grandpa can't let that group of unorthodox royal guys make the Tiangu Kingdom into a miasma"
The Emperor spoke in a righteous and favorable tone at first, but soon became weak like a deflated ball.
Cao Rou hurriedly opened her hand to support it, and asked in a panic, "Grandpa, are you okay?"
At this time, everyone else also gathered around and stood behind Ye Cheng to fill the big bed. Everyone looked flustered, frowning, and seemed to be very worried about the current situation of the emperor.
The Emperor Taishang's Life Continuation Pill was well known, and the powerful side effects were only known to the people of the Heavenly Gu Kingdom, so they must be worried that the powerful side effects were starting to attack on the Emperor Taishang.
Emperor Taishang's face had begun to turn pale, and his body was slightly unstable under Cao Rou's support. Just now, his physical condition was like that of a strong man, but now he has changed back to an old man, and the situation is still getting worse.
"If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it's not good" Ye Cheng said secretly in his heart, he looked at the Emperor Taishang nervously.
At this time, Cao Rou slowly helped the Emperor Taishang to sit on the big bed, and as the Emperor became weaker and weaker, she became more and more panicked.
And Xiao Gu also got up and walked onto the big bed, squatting in front of the emperor, just about to speak.
Emperor Taishang slowly raised his right hand and said weakly, "General, the side effects of the Life Continuation Pill have flinched, and I am about to pass away." You must help the princess regain the imperial power, and you must not let the unorthodox royal family use their power to harm the people of the Tiangu Kingdom."
Then he turned his hand and grabbed Cao Rou and continued: "Little granddaughter, didn't you ask me how I could lift the emperor's decree on taxation? I had been hesitant before, just because I didn't want you to get involved in the struggle for imperial power, but now that I think about it, as a descendant of the royal family, you must return to the royal court for the sake of the people and continue to be a member of the orthodox royal family."
"Grandpa......" Cao Rou hesitated, she saw the weak Emperor Taishang, and couldn't give an answer for a while.
At this time, Bai Fang also ran to Cao Rou and said respectfully, "Princess, the Emperor is right, now is the best time to regain imperial power, if you miss today, I don't know when there will be such an opportunity." Now that the lives of the people of the Tiangu Kingdom are in dire straits, there must be an orthodox royal family who loves the people to come out and ask for the people's lives."
Bai Fang knelt in front of Cao Rou, clasped his hands, and said respectfully, "Please princess come back to inherit the throne for the people of Tiangu Kingdom"
When the thirty white-clothed soldiers outside the big bed heard this, they all knelt down one after another, and said respectfully, "Please come back and inherit the throne."
The thirty white-clothed soldiers are also filial to the orthodox royal family, and they all want Cao Rou, the only orthodox royal princess, to come back.
They shouted respectfully, in a subtle voice that would not expose everyone in the room.
At this time, Cao Rou was still hesitating, she looked outside the big bed, looking at the kneeling white-clothed soldiers and the Xiao family.
Ye Cheng knew that Cao Rou must be struggling now, but he couldn't do anything, he couldn't interfere with Cao Rou's thoughts, and this important decision could only be made by herself.
