Chapter 460: Assassination
Inside the Xiangwang Mansion.
"Master, they're already in the city!" A secret guard whispered in Gu Ronghe's ear.
"Rubbish! Haven't you already let those people at the door stop you, how can you still let them swagger in? Gu Ronghe's face was ugly, and he hammered the table at hand.
If Gu Xiwu is allowed to enter the city, then how will he proceed with his next two plans?
Whatever happened to Gu Xiwu outside the city could casually fall on her enemies. After all, there are not a few people who have offended Gu Xiwu and Mo Xuanyin over the years, and those who want her to die are even more arrested.
But once she is brought in, things start to take a huge turn.
The capital is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the current capital is controlled by his Xiangwang Mansion. If Gu Xiwu, the regent, made a mistake in the capital, he would be the first to be pushed to the forefront!
So he ordered to go down early in the morning, just to stop people so that they could move on to the next step.
"You can't blame them for this!" The minister is still sitting in the position of Gu Rong and the head at the moment, this person is not liked by Gu Xiwu, Gu Ronghe never interacted with him in person when Gu Xiwu was in power, but now Gu Xiwu is no longer the Gu Xiwu who says everything, so it doesn't matter: "Wuwei will follow those people into the city at this moment, and the guards can not know the county lord, but without this person, no one knows him!" Coupled with Wuwei's temper over the years, it is not surprising that they can't stop it, and His Highness doesn't need to be too annoyed. ”
"But do you want me to see a duck flying that has reached its mouth?" Gu Ronghe's face was unwilling.
What's more, he deceived people in the name of finding a doctor, but where did he find a doctor, everything was just a lie. Once Gu Xiwu comes back, this lie will be self-defeating!
"Who said you can't do it when you get to the capital?"
The courtier smiled treacherously, then stretched out his hand and stroked his beard.
"Oh, what's the solution?" Gu Ronghe seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw.
Weichen also heard about the county lord, and heard that the county lord had stayed in a Yunnan king's palace in the city. Since the county lord never planned to return to the Xiangwang Mansion, even if something happened in the capital, what did it have to do with His Highness? The enemy of the county lord will not stop doing it just because this is the capital of South Vietnam, even if those people from other countries want to think about it, but what about the capital? ”
Qin Zifu squinted, looking treacherous.
"This?" Gu Ronghe hesitated.
"Your Highness, we have no other chance, if we don't get rid of their mother and son this time, I'm afraid it's us who will die in turn! You know, that person is not a fool, she was stopped at the city gate, and she probably knew what was going on! ”
"Kill them, mother and son?"
Although Gu Ronghe had already made up his mind, his plan was to imprison the two of them. After so many years of friendship, he couldn't do it to Gu Xiwu, let alone to such a small child.
"Leave them, how can Mo Xuanyin give up? As long as these two people are alive, there will be a threat to you and me to South Vietnam! If they die, Nanyue is in the hands of His Royal Highness, even if Mo Xuanyin really intends to retaliate, how much wind and waves can he afford? ”
In the end, Yunnan is only a subject country, and compared with South Vietnam, it has inherent shortcomings. Even if Mo Xuanyin is powerful, what can he do, in front of the powerful state machine, he can only admit this matter!
"Kill, them!" Gu Ronghe weighed these two words again, and suddenly found that what Qin Zifu said also made sense, and staying, it was always a scourge: "Come on!" ”
And when he watched Gu Rong and a hesitation in his eyes finally turn into firmness, a triumphant smile flashed on Qin Zifu's face, but it disappeared extremely quickly, and he didn't let the person above notice it at all.
Seongnam Garden.
This is when Mo Xuanyin was still the prince, and his residence in South Vietnam was not secret, but it was enough to deter.
"Tell me, what the hell is going on? How much do you know about the news that I don't know, what happened in South Vietnam, and what happened to Gu Ronghe? ”
After the arrangements had just been made and Mo Junyao was handed over to the trusted grandmother here, Gu Xiwu sat in the front hall and looked at the two men with frowns.
Now, shouldn't I give her an explanation?
"Well, I didn't leave the capital because of a personal grudge. It was Gu Ronghe who deliberately exiled a group of us, and now in the court, in addition to the old ministers left by Gu Ye, there are only those powerful ministers who Gu Ronghe brought up. Wuwei couldn't hold on to it under Gu Xiwu's scrutinizing eyes at first, so he simply turned his heart sideways and said everything.
Anyway, I can't hide it anymore, it's better to let her know what kind of person Gu Ronghe is than if she still has a glimmer of hope.
"I also received the same tip a few days ago, saying that Gu Ronghe had made a big move in the court. Now, except for the few generals who are guarding the border passes, those who followed you to overthrow Gu Ye have all ended up with Wuwei. Mo Xuanyin also shrugged helplessly.
That being said, it's okay to do nothing. At least he is friends with Gu Xiwu, so that he can return to Gu Xiwu, even if he makes other plans in the future, it will not be too miserable, but those old ministers do not have such treatment one by one.
The old age, coupled with the sense of belonging to South Vietnam, made them sad for the rest of the year.
"Gu Ronghe! I really didn't expect that! Gu Xiwu listened to what the two people said, and her heart that was still looking forward to it gradually dimmed, and the handsome young man in white back then also became what she didn't know: "It's me who mistakenly believed people!" ”
"I can't blame you for this, I already knew that he was not a man who was willing to be left behind. It's just that I didn't expect him to have such an attitude towards you. Keeping you out of the city gates, he thought of it! Wuwei looked indignant.
Obviously, the contradiction between him and Gu Ronghe is the one that really can't be reconciled.
"How many people don't rush to the temptation of the pinnacle of power? Gu Ronghe is a layman, it is reasonable to become like this! Mo Xuanyin glanced at him, and then said casually.
"So, you're also the kind of person who will do anything for the sake of power?" Wuwei looked at him suspiciously.
Mo Xuanyin suddenly walked to Gu Xiwu's side, and then her eyebrows were gentle.
"I'm different, I'm not a layman!"
For a moment, Wuwei actually felt that his expression was a little underwhelming.
"You two are okay, no matter what Gu Ronghe wants to do, now our top priority is to find the doctor he said quickly. With Yao'er, once he has any thoughts, every moment is dangerous! ”
Gu Xiwu glanced at the two of them, and then thought of Mo Junyao's eyes that still couldn't see anything, and couldn't help but feel a burst of sorrow in his heart.
"Then we ......"
Without waiting to finish speaking, Mo Xuanyin's face changed, and he pulled Gu Xiwu and rolled aside. And almost at the same time, a fine dart was nailed to the seat where Gu Xiwu was sitting.
If Mo Xuanyin hadn't reacted, I'm afraid that the nail that would have pierced Gu Xiwu's chest would have died now.
"How dare he come!"
Wuwei glanced at the dart in disbelief, and then pricked up his ears, there was not only one person in this courtyard.
"Xiwu, you're hiding here! We'll take care of the rest! Mo Xuanyin gritted his teeth, placed Gu Xiwu in a hidden place, and then glanced at Wuwei, the two of them refreshed their luck, and smashed the door with one palm.
And right outside the door, there were several killers dressed in black and wearing masks.
"Good!" Gu Xiwu just thought about agreeing, but in the next second, a bad premonition suddenly came to her heart: "No, Yao'er!" ”
She suddenly got together, and a man in black saw Gu Xiwu's figure and took advantage of the fact that Mo Xuanyin and the others were fighting, quickly approached, and raised the short crossbow in his hand. The sharp arrow shone with a strange light, and at first glance it looked like it had been extracted with the best poison.
"Sorry!"
By the time Mo Xuanyin realized it, the short sword had already been shot out, shooting straight at Gu Xiwu.
"Don't come here!"
Gu Xiwu knew the power of this arrow, she recognized this short crossbow, it was created by Gu Ye's father in order to slaughter her family, she never thought that she would see this thing again today.
With a flash of the sword, Gu Xiwu dodged the poisonous arrow, and then ran to Mo Xuanyin's side with all his might.
Because she knew the trajectory of this thing, she could accurately avoid this one, but she didn't know if she had such good luck to avoid the second one. But she knew that she couldn't die yet, and Yao'er's illness hadn't recovered yet.
The thing she promised Mo Xuanyin has not been done yet, all the bad things have just ended, and she can't just die like this.
She still had to stand in front of Gu Ronghe and ask him why he did this!
"What are you running around, do you know how dangerous it is?"
Seeing Gu Xiwu, who was already hiding behind him, Mo Xuanyin's face darkened, which was rare in the past few days, and he said something heavy.
"I'm sorry!" Gu Xiwu lowered her head and was protected by Mo Xuanyin and Wuwei in the middle: "But they won't just come at me, Yao'er, Yao'er is still in the backyard!" ”
She knows how dangerous the road ahead is, but she is a mother, and even if she knows it is a dead end, she will pass.
"Why did you forget about it!"
Mo Xuanyin almost patted his head, Mo Junyao is Gu Xiwu's only child, it is impossible for those people to cut the grass without eradicating the roots. Now there are only two guards and a grandmother in the backyard, and if something happens, those two people may really not be able to stop anything.
Thinking of this, Mo Xuanyin gritted his teeth and tightened Gu Xiwu's hand.
"You two go to the backyard, I'll leave it here!"
Wuwei also suddenly realized Mo Junyao's safety, and after reaching out to solve the people behind the three people, he suddenly turned to Mo Xuanyin, and motioned for the two of them to leave quickly.
"Good!"
"Be careful!"
