The sorrow after the great joy is the most hurtful sorrow. Obviously, it hasn't really arrived yet, but Yu Zhao just feels what it feels like to be heartbroken.

endured the discomfort, but did not dare to show the slightest emotion, Sheng Sheng suppressed the tears and cries, and waited for the moment when the car stopped, which was the time when the verdict came.

If you don't want to face it, you will come after all, and you can't hide from it. The car stopped slowly, Chu Zikai helped Yu Zhao out of the car, sent him to the palace, and instructed him before leaving. "I'm going to have to wait until I get back......"

Yu Zhao nodded in agreement, but this time he didn't listen to him again, and as soon as Chu Zikai left on his front foot, he walked towards the palace of Emperor Yuan.

Emperor Yuan had been waiting in the palace for a long time, and his body became weaker and weaker when he hurried overnight, and he couldn't stop coughing violently, and there was no blood on his face.

Chu Ziyi sensibly handed over the tea on the side, and when he saw that Yu Zhao was back, he hurriedly stepped forward to speak, but was taken down by Zhuo Yao.

When Emperor Yuan stopped coughing, Yu Zhao asked directly: "Your Majesty, what Fang Cai Feng said is true." ”

Weakened by the pain, Emperor Yuan could no longer pretend to be energetic, nodded weakly, and informed: "So the plan should be advanced, I have already ordered someone to imitate your handwriting and deliver a letter to Yu Cheng. I just said that you were indeed ordered by me to enter the palace in order to protect your son in the early years. Now he wants to take away the Great Chu Jiangshan, and the reason why he conceals it is just because he is afraid that he will pursue Yu Yao's death. ”

"Does Your Majesty think he will believe it?" Yu Zhao knows Yu Cheng's temperament very well, the more he hides it, the more cautious he is, and it may be difficult to deceive him with just words on paper.

Emperor Yuan was also like a mirror, and replied: "I am very uncertain, so it depends on whether you can make him believe it." As he spoke, he walked to the bed and pulled the tent, and a corpse wearing a dragon robe with the same face as Emperor Yuan suddenly appeared.

Knowing that the corpse was fake, he suddenly saw that it was extremely realistic, and Yu Zhao was still shocked to take a step back. I heard Emperor Yuan say again: "Wen Yuan has handed me a secret letter, Yu Cheng is quietly rushing to Luoyuan, the order of the Son of Heaven is in your hands, I am hiding, and the drama books of everyone in the palace are all written by you." Remember to let him look at Ziyi throughout the whole process, so that he can have some confidence, so that his doubts can be dispelled. ”

This move is dangerous, Yu Zhao is nervous, but he doesn't treat people from time to time, and the slightest mistake will fall short. He could only calmly reply, "Yes." ”

Raising his eyes and looking at Yu Zhao again, Emperor Yuan's eyes darkened, and he couldn't help but sigh, turned around and walked towards the secret room inside, and said without looking back: "When the matter is completed, please abide by the agreement and erase the prince's thoughts about you." For him, for his son, for your mother......"

The coolness of early autumn mixed with water vapor, and the wind penetrated into the house, Yu Zhao stood motionless in Emperor Yuan, thinking about Emperor Yuan's words, the coolness was from the outside to the inside, at this time, it was not a cold day, but Yu Zhao felt that he was about to be frozen into an icicle.

In the end, he chose to move, Yu Zhao covered the unknown corpse on the bed with the quilt, and put down the curtain again. Outside, Chu Ziyi had been noisy, clamoring to come in, Yu Zhao walked out in a daze, squatted down to look at him at eye level, and told in a flat tone: "Father is asleep, Ziyi should be obedient and listen to me." ”

When everyone heard that Emperor Yuan was resting, they didn't dare to disturb, slowed down and retreated, and the entire palace was dead silent.

The muddy road was slippery, and if you didn't pay attention, you would slip and fall, but a group of people galloped on horseback, and the mud splashed stained the gorgeous official robes. But Yu Cheng couldn't take care of it, he was too slow to ride, his heart was driven by greed, and he didn't want to delay for a moment.

Halfway through the journey, a maid came to pick him up, showed the Zhaohui Palace token and informed: "Your Majesty is seriously ill, please invite the Lord Guozhang to enter the palace to discuss matters, and the rest of the adults have already gone to inform." ”

When Yu Cheng heard this, he immediately ordered his subordinates to follow, raised his whip, accelerated his speed, and went straight into the palace.

When he arrived, he was startled, only to see that the palace was surrounded by the Imperial Forest Army, and the commander of the guards saw Yu Cheng and hurriedly bowed: "I have been waiting for the lord for a long time, Your Majesty is seriously ill, and Concubine Chen Niangniang invites your lord to enter the palace immediately." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Yu Cheng pinched the dagger in his hand and stepped in.

In the main hall, Yu Zhao sat on it, holding a book to teach Chu Ziyi to read poems, and when he heard the movement outside, he immediately put down the book and waited.

Yu Cheng came in and saw Yu Zhao sitting on Emperor Yuan's seat, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then saw Chu Ziyi next to him, and breathed a sigh of relief. Saluted and said: "The minister sees Concubine Chen, Fifth Highness." ”

Yu Zhao said goodbye to him, and then coaxed Chu Ziyi in a light tone: "Is it okay for Ziyi to go out to play?" I have important matters to discuss with Kokujo-sama. ”

Chu Ziyi shook his head and did not move. "Aunt Zhuo Yao is not here, and no one is playing with me with stones."

Yu Cheng rolled his eyes, and immediately said: "If the Fifth Highness doesn't come with the minister, there are also subordinates who can play with stones." ”

Chu Ziyi looked at Yu Zhao, as if asking for consent.

Gritting his teeth, Yu Zhaoguang's hand full of cold sweat under his sleeves suddenly clenched, but his face was as usual, he touched Chu Ziyi's head, and instructed: "That Ziyi is fun, you have to be obedient, do you know?" ”

Chu Ziyi nodded again and again, Yu Zhao suppressed the worry in his heart, watched the palace maid lead him down, tried to calm down, and looked at Yu Cheng again: "Father, can the people in Jingzhou be controlled?" ”

Seeing that Chu Ziyi was completely in his hands at the moment, Yu Cheng's hanging heart was put down, and he replied: "Everything is going well, please rest assured." Then he asked: "I just heard from the people who answered and the military generals guarding outside the palace that Your Majesty is seriously ill, can you let the ministers meet?" ”

Yu Zhao got up, his face was indifferent, he walked to the inner hall, and waved his hand to signal Yu Cheng to follow. "Let's go, Your Majesty has been afraid of quarrels lately, so my father will go with the palace to have a look."

Sensing something strange, Yu Cheng followed Yu Zhao to the inner hall with doubts.

After bypassing the screen, she saw Yu Zhao stopping, Yu Cheng looked in the direction where her line of sight was, the bed was covered by a veil, and there were two red pills at the head of the bed that had time to be taken in the future, and one was sprinkled on the ground. The breeze blowing in from the window rolls slowly.

As soon as he saw this scene, Yu Cheng guessed seven or eight points. Be wary of approaching and lift the curtain.

Emperor Yuan's face was pale, his eyes were wide, but he was not angry at all, and he didn't blink a blind eye......

This terrifying scene frightened Yu Cheng to kneel on the ground, then calmed down, tentatively reached out to probe the breath of the person on the bed, looked at the indifferent woman behind him, and asked tremblingly: "Is this ...... Empress...... When did His Majesty die? ”

Yu Zhao's eyes did not have the slightest wave, and his voice was like three feet of ice in winter, he took out the order of the Son of Heaven and stroked it, and replied casually: "Tonight, when the prince raised troops to besiege the city, he died in a hurry!"

The cold voice echoed in the empty dormitory, and Yu Cheng was frightened and sweating profusely. I hadn't thought about this scene before, but I was panicked for a moment before I calmed down. And the governor has reached this point, and there is no way back. You have to break the kettle and fight to the death. Then he got up slowly and asked: "The minister asks Niangniang to pass the decree on behalf of Your Majesty, and lead the army to capture the thief Chu Zikai." ”
