This voice made Gu Nian seem to have entered the ice cellar in an instant, not only the hairs on his body stood up, but even the blood in his whole body was frozen.

It is the fourth prince, and his voice is very soft, very gentle, and even with a different kind of gentleness.

It was because it was so gentle that Gu Nian's whole body was cold, and without any hesitation, he quickly closed the door of the wardrobe, entered the secret passage, and held Xu'er's hand.

This should be said to be a moment of life and death.

The moment the closet door closed, the door to the inner room was pushed open. The person who pushed the door moved very lightly, as if he was afraid of alarming the people in the room.

The fourth prince's action of pushing the door was very gentle, and like his voice, he seemed to be chatting casually and intimately with people.

"I didn't bother you when I came so late."

The gentle voice, accompanied by the sound of light footsteps, if not the wrong occasion, is as if lovers are playing peek-a-boo.

Obviously, the door of the cabinet has been closed, and the door of the secret passage has also been closed, Gu Nian also knows very well that it is impossible for the four princes to find the secret passage, and hearing the sound of the four princes talking outside still makes her whole body cold.

It's as if the cold air sticks out of the bones, bringing out the fear from the depths of the heart.

Xu Er hugged Gu Nian tightly.

Gu Nian suppressed the feeling of fear in his heart, held the stone door with one hand, and sat down slowly, the steps in winter were a little cold, but Gu Nian couldn't manage so much.

She took Xu'er in her arms and comforted him.

The little person circled her waist with his backhand and leaned on her arms, knowing that the one outside must be the bad guy, so he didn't say a word, just stared at Gu Nian with purring eyes.

Gu Nian smiled at him, the secret passage was safe, they were not in a hurry to leave, and besides, she also wanted to know how the fourth prince got in and what to do next.

Outside the secret passage, the four princes stood in the middle of the room, the room was very open, with an unobstructed view, the curtain was lowered, the clothes were on the shelves, but there was no one on the bed.

This shows that Gu Nian was in the house before he came in, so did he hear his voice and hide?

"Someone." The fourth prince greeted softly, and two men in black instantly appeared beside him.

In addition to the man in black, there was also a subordinate who was wearing the clothes of a servant of the Jin Palace, looking at the empty room, he swallowed his saliva nervously, and said,

"Princess...... No, Miss Gu was still in the house just now. ”

The people waiting in the house had just gone out, and even Yang Shun's father-in-law, who was waiting for Xiao Shizi, had just returned to the room, and the princess and Xiao Shizi should have just fallen asleep for a long time, how could they not see anyone?

The fourth prince paced two steps lightly, squinted his eyes slightly, and said softly, "Search." ”

The two men in black took action, and Gu Nian in the secret passage heard the sound of flipping, but his brain was running at high speed.

She was unfamiliar with the voice of the person who called her 'Miss Gu', and she wasn't sure where she was waiting.

Listening to his voice, his voice is sharper than that of ordinary men, similar to Yang Shun next to Xu'er, but not Yang Shun.

According to Xiao Yue's favor, there should have been eunuchs waiting, but Xiao Yue didn't like it, and she didn't like it either, even if it was a eunuch, it was a man.

She looked at Xu'er, after Xu'er entered the palace, in addition to Yang Shun, the emperor gave two little eunuchs, so, is there something wrong here?

The two little eunuchs served very well, and Xu'er also liked these two little eunuchs very much.

"Move gently." The fourth prince suddenly spoke, his voice was not as gentle and soft as just now, but cold.

It was as if the louder voices of these people would frighten Gu Nian, and he didn't want to frighten her.

After the fourth prince scolded, the next two people's movements became lighter and lighter, and twice the door of the wardrobe was opened, and Gu Nian in the secret passage was still nervous for no reason.

But the secret passage is indeed very secret, and besides, the hairpin that opens the secret passage is stuck in her head.

"Lord, no one in the house ......," someone whispered.

The waiter who was the inner attendant suddenly broke down in a cold sweat, knelt down, and his voice trembled, "Miss Gu...... Miss Gu ......"

He whispered, trying to summon Gu Nian out.

However, he only screamed two or three times, and then Gu Nian in the secret passage heard a rapid scream, and there was no sound again.

She subconsciously covered Xu'er's ears with her hands, afraid of scaring Xu'er, and even her body couldn't help but shiver.

When the person who did the internal response was killed, she would not have any sympathy, but she was furious at the thought that if she hadn't entered the secret passage just now, she might have ended up like this.

She didn't listen any more, but took Xu'er's hand, got up from the steps, and continued to walk forward, and within a few steps, she arrived at a room.

There were several sets of civilian clothes and shoes in the room, and there was water and food on the table, which were changed regularly.

It's not dawn yet, but she's walked through the secret passage, it's long, it's long, even if she can walk fast, Xu'er's body can't stand it.

No one expected that Xu Er showed unprecedented strength, after Gu Nian helped him change his clothes, after walking for a while, Gu Nian bent down and asked Xu Er, "Can you still go?" ”

They had to walk to the exit before dawn and rest for a while, before the gates opened, and she had to try to get out and settle the mother and son, and then inquire about her grandmother and mother.

The fourth prince will choose this time to come to her, and it is also a rare opportunity.

If Xiao Yue is distracted, he will definitely not be able to take care of the palace.

If he didn't care about their mother and son, he could take him away.

But where were the four princes hiding before?

"Mother, the child can do it." Xu Er raised her head and replied to Gu Nian without breathing.

Gu Nian touched his head, didn't say anything more, took his hand and continued to walk forward.

After a long time, Gu Nian felt that her sleeves were being pulled, she turned her head and saw Xu'er's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, this child has always said something to her, and rarely looks so entangled.

"What's wrong?" Gu Nian simply stopped and asked him softly.

Xu Er pursed her lips and said slowly, "The person outside just now is the person waiting next to me, right?" He's the one who brought the bad guys in, isn't he? ”

Gu Nian didn't hide it, and nodded, "Yes, he brought outsiders in, and now Aoba and they don't know what to do, maybe they have been killed." ”

Xu Er was angry and entangled, "Why did he do this?" He is by my side, I am very good to him, mother, you said, the next person is also a human being, and you can't treat it casually. ”

Gu Nian said to him, "He was originally bought by the bad guys, placed by your side, and stayed by your side just to come in handy at this moment." ”

Looking at Xu'er's dazed and sad face, Gu Nian thought about it and continued,

"Xu'er, when you grow up, you may meet a lot of people like that eunuch.

They approach you for some purpose, lurking around you.

They may be better to you than anyone else is to you, making you feel that they can be trusted and relied on, and that they are your indispensable subordinates, companions, friends, and even family members.

But when you let your guard down on him, they'll give you the fatal blow. ”

Xu Er listened to Gu Nian's words, thought of what Uncle Huang had taught him, and asked, "Mother, will there be many such people?" ”

Gu Nian said, "There are a lot of bustling in the world, all for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit."

The higher you stand, the more people there will be, so don't let your guard down and don't trust others easily. ”

Xu Er fell silent, looking a little confused.

Gu Nian didn't have much, and continued to walk forward with him.

After a while, Xu'er pulled her sleeve again, saw her turn her head, and said softly, "Mother, I thought about your words carefully, and I think what you said is not quite right. ”

Gu Nian smiled, "Then Xu'er thinks what's wrong with her mother?" can say it, my mother is wrong, and my mother will review it well. ”

Xu'er said, "If you tell you that you have to be vigilant about everyone who is close to you and good to you, then how could my mother be with my father in the first place?"

Xiaoshunzi I trust him very much, treat him as a relative, and the imperial uncle, he is very good to me, and Sister Astragalus, she was so seriously injured in order to save her mother, until now, she is still lying in bed and has not recovered.

Also, the emperor's uncle and his father both said that there was no trust between the Son of Heaven and the ministers, but before the emperor's uncle fell into a coma, he trusted his father the most, and entrusted everything to his father......"

As smart as Gu Nian, looking at Xu'er's eyes shining in the light of the night pearl, he just pursed his lips and smiled, without words.

Xu Er blushed and continued to say seriously, "Maybe I will meet a lot of bad people who deliberately approach me in the future, but if I am always suspicious of the people around me, I will also miss a lot of good people who are true to me." ”

Gu Nian looked at Xu'er, and said in his heart that it was impossible not to be pleased.

She has always hoped that Xu'er will be a kind, warm, and upright person in the future, and she has always taught her like this.

Later, the emperor kept taking Xu'er to the palace, and she couldn't help but worry. After all, since ancient times, the ruthless emperor family, she is very afraid that what the emperor taught Xu'er is the ruthlessness and ruthlessness that she doesn't want Xu'er to have.

Now it seems that she is thinking too much.

Xu Er has not become like that, he is smart, can think, can distinguish between good and bad, and always maintains goodness, warmth, and light in his heart.

What she said just now was not that she wanted to test it, but she didn't expect that what she gained was these.

She was silent for a while, and then spoke again, "Xu'er is right, it's my mother who thinks too narrowly. ”

Xu Er nodded, blushing, pursing her lips, and shyly smiled at Gu Nian.

Next, the mother and son walked unusually fast, and there were a few times when Xu'er was tired, Gu Nian wanted to help him, hug him, or carry him, but Xu'er refused.

"My mother and Xu'er have walked as much, and my mother is also very tired, but Xu'er can do it." Xu'er looked stubborn.

Gu Nian rested three times along the way, and said softly to Xu'er, "I've worked hard for you, but your father is even harder." ”

Finally, at the end of the secret passage, I opened the exit of the secret passage, and when I came out of the exit, there was already light outside, and the morning light was accompanied by a fresh breeze.

Gu Nian looked up at the sky, the rain had faded, and today's weather seemed to be exceptionally good.

They were now in an old house, with a street outside, and when they got out of the street, they were not long steps away from the city gate.

These were all conceived by Xiao Yue at the beginning.

Whenever you want to escape, it's easy to get out of the city.

Out of the old house, I went to the back street, although it was early in the morning, but there were already a lot of vendors out to set up stalls, especially early, there were a lot of them on the roadside.

Xu Er looked at those who couldn't take their eyes off earlier, Gu Nian touched his stomach, and walked all night, his stomach was indeed a little hungry, although dry food was prepared in the secret passage, but where was the dry food fresh and delicious?

Gu Nian looked at what the mother and son were wearing, a very ordinary little daughter-in-law with a child, this is a place where ordinary people gather, there are many little daughters-in-law and children walking like them on the road, and the two of them don't look conspicuous.

She took Xu'er to drink a bowl of bean curd, bought another cake, and after eating it slowly, she paid the money and went to the city gate.

When I arrived at the city gate, the city gate had been opened, the capital was under martial law, and everyone who passed by had to be carefully checked.

Although carefully inspected, all the guards were very amiable and not vicious.

Looking at it this way, Gu Nian put his mind at ease again, these people should not be the people of the Four Princes.

The capital is Xiao Yue's land, if the fourth prince has the ability to control the city gates in his hands, then he can directly lead the capital without having to lie dormant in the dark for such a long time.

She straightened her chest and was about to go out with the crowd.

"Here, follow me."

Suddenly, a sentence sounded behind Gu Nian's mother and son.

The familiar male voice is not Xiao Yue, nor the fourth prince, nor the close person in her mind.

Gu Nian's heart instantly became nervous, and the seven souls and six spirits were about to go out of the body, and the hand holding Xu'er involuntarily tightened.

She turned her head, but she was really stunned.

The person who spoke turned out to be Zhou Yuyan's ex-husband, Fang Zhongwen, who had not seen him for a long time.

I saw that he was wearing armor, and he looked like the leader of the city gate.

"You ......" Gu Nian was surprised.

Why is Fang Zhongwen here? She knew that he had stayed in the capital for a while and wanted to be with Zhou Yuyan, but was rejected by Zhou Yuyan.

Later, because Zhou Yuyan was reluctant to mention it, she didn't like Fang Zhongwen either, so she passed by this person.

Is he the gate guard today? It's a bit condescending, isn't it? Is this a coincidence? When pigs fly.

It was so coincidental that he appeared at this time and in this place, and he said so to her, which was definitely not an accident or coincidence.

Thinking about it, Xiao Yue's personality is impossible to throw their mother and son outside.

Since she must go back to the house and wait for him, she has started the layout very early.

Fang Zhongwen nodded towards Gu Nian, "I'll send you out of the city." ”

Gu Nian looked at Fang Zhongwen's expression a little complicated, but he still nodded, "I'm sorry for you." ”

She didn't like Fang Zhongwen very much, but if she wanted to say that Fang Zhongwen would harm her, she definitely didn't believe it.

Whether it is from Zhou Yuyan or from her father Gu Shi'an, it is impossible for Fang Zhongwen to harm her.

On the contrary, Fang Zhongwen fought for their lives, and she didn't doubt it at all.

The Fang family was implicated because of King Lao Su back then, and they settled in Jiangnan.

This may be the arrangement of Xiao Yue and his father, if he arranged for his own people to respond, the four princes would definitely send someone to target them.

arranged Fang Zhongwen, and there was a lot of stiffness between him and Zhou Yuyan, but this person was still trustworthy, and besides, no matter which enemy it was, it was impossible to think of it.

Seeing that Gu Nian was very polite, Fang Zhongwen shook his head and said, "Needless to say, I feel honored to do all this for you for Yan'er and make up for my own mistakes." ”

When Xiao Yue came to him, although he couldn't say it clearly, he didn't ask, he had to work hard to atone for the sins he was carrying, and he didn't care about his life, everything.

Even if Yan'er still can't accept him in the future, it doesn't matter.

Gu Nian was silent, leading Xu'er to follow him.

The exit went smoothly, Fang Zhongwen was the leader, even if there were people from the four princes in the city guards guarding the door, they didn't feel anything strange at all.

Not long after leaving the city gate, Fang Zhongwen said, "Grandmother and Yan'er have already settled down in the city, there are many farmers there, they are waiting for you there, I will send you over." ”

Gu Nian was originally worried about the eldest princess of the protectorate and the lord of Jingning, but when he heard that the eldest princess and her cousin had gone out, she was relieved, but he was talking about his grandmother and cousin, what about his mother?

She frowned and asked Fang Zhongwen, "Is there no news from my mother?" ”

Fang Zhongwen Yaotou, "No, you came here in batches, maybe she is still behind." I'll send you back first, and I'll go back to the city to wait for her later, your respective positions are different. ”

Gu Nian heard this, followed him into the carriage, although he still couldn't let go of his mother in his heart, he still followed Fang Zhongwen to the place where the eldest princess of the protectorate was.

……

The words are divided into two ends, in the dark night, Xiao Yue sat on the steps in front of the emperor's bedroom, everything was prepared, the horn of midnight sounded, and the signal to start the war had been opened, just waiting for the other party to appear.

He was sure but not sure when the Fourth Prince would arrive.

The white handkerchief in his hand kept wiping in front of the blade of the long sword, and the long sword emitted a faint light, which became more and more dazzling in the dark night, and the light shone on Xiao Yue's face, like a messenger from hell.

He will definitely be able to defeat the Four Princes today.

After the fourth watch, Xiao Yue calmly put down the handkerchief in his hand, stood up, and tapped his long sword, "Give me the antidote." ”

The fourth prince in a gray robe chuckled, looking at Xiao Yue's expression, not gloomy and ruthless, but extraordinarily gentle, "You can try it." ”

"Are you worth it?" The Fourth Prince continued to ask.

"It's none of your business."

"You have killed his son, and you are not afraid that he will turn back and punish him?"

"I am for the country and the society, what is the crime?" Xiao Yue stared at the darkness in the distance,

"I thought you could lie dormant until now, you should have some brains, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that...... Perverted. He pursed his lips and looked at the four princes mockingly.

The fourth prince smiled, disappreciated, drew his long sword, and threw away the scabbard.

Two men, one on the stairs and the other on the ground, stand opposite each other.

This battle is inevitable.

When the first rays of sunlight rose in the east in the morning, the battle was nearing its end, and countless corpses and blood were piled up in front of the emperor's bedchamber.

The rainy weather finally cleared, the sky was cloudless, and the sky was red and glowing.

The morning light and the breeze, the bloody scene, also have the same beauty.

There are not many people left in the four princes, but there are people in the Mo family.

All the people in Mo Dashao's hands were given to the four princes.

That's why there are so many corpses.

Dark panted and stood beside Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue was still standing on the steps, the long sword in his hand was dripping blood, he had won, and at this moment, the four princes were kneeling under the steps.

He won, and the fourth prince gradually straightened his chest, raised his head, looked at the man on the steps, and suddenly let out a burst of laughter, which grew louder and louder, until he laughed wildly and burst into tears.

"There is no antidote, you can only watch your emperor's eldest brother die."

"It feels bad to lose, I've felt it for so many years, and you should taste it too."

"You took away my thoughts, helped the emperor take away my throne, at this moment, are you ready to come and take my life?

You scumbag.

Why did you snatch my thoughts? Do you know? She was my woman in the first eight lives, and she had children with me, and she bloomed the most beautiful moment under me, originally, in this life, we should be together.

I will give her the best of everything, I will make her the most noble woman in the world, and let everyone in the world prostrate under her feet......

It's you, it's you, that ruins it all.

Today, I lost, but you can never erase it, I have been with Niannian, and we have been together for longer and longer than you......

You poor wretch...... It's just this time, and you're complacent.

Now, you just watch your big brother die as the emperor's eldest brother dies......

Haha......"

Xiao Yue clenched his hands into fists, only to feel that his whole body was about to explode.

Without an antidote, he can't save his eldest brother, he can't save his eldest brother......

Moreover, he even uttered wild words and insulted Nian Nian......

Xiao Yue stepped forward, accompanied by a green light as fast as lightning, and in an instant, the long sword was already against the throat of the fourth prince.

The aura of death came to the face in an instant.

The figure of the fourth prince froze suddenly, his eyes widened, staring at Xiao Yue deadly, his cool eyes were close at hand.

"If you have the ability, you will kill me."

The four princes' foreheads were bruised, they gritted their teeth, and they were authentic word by word.

Xiao Yue stared at him for a moment, without saying a word, and with a force, the blade of the sword left a blood mark on the neck of the fourth prince, and then pressed against the surging artery on his side.

The hand holding the hilt of the sword was also bruised and bruised without a trace of trembling, as long as he exerted force, the head in front of him would fall to the ground, and blood would spurt out.

For a long time, the hand holding the hilt of the sword, slowly, let go of the long sword in his hand and discarded it to the ground, how could he let him die so happily?

He will be tortured in ways unimaginable to ordinary people, just like the Marquis of Pingyang, and repent of the wrongs they have done.

"Escort him down ......"

Xiao Yue commanded coldly.

It's just that his whole body is still stiff, he caught the enemy, but he still can't save his eldest brother......

What's the point of all this?

He was suddenly dazed, bleeding from the wounds on his body, but he didn't feel the slightest pain.

At this moment, the door of the emperor's bedroom was opened, and a eunuch who served the emperor with the queen mother rushed out of it, shouting loudly, "The emperor is awake, the emperor is awake" (......)
