As Gu Qingyan expected, Prince Good had indeed prepared the poisoned wine, waiting for Chu Chen to give him a ride when he was done.

He originally thought that as long as this secret was not revealed, he would be able to wait peacefully to see his grandson marry a wife and have children, and watch his granddaughter marry, but he also knew that there would be no eternal secrets, as long as you did it, you would not be able to escape, and one day it would be dug up, especially the pattern of the capital had long deviated from the trajectory of Zhang Zaifu's plan back then.

His hopes have become extravagant hopes.

Now, he has only one death.

Only when he dies can he save Prince Shan's mansion and his grandson.

Chu Chen blew in from the outside with a gust of wind, and when he arrived at the door, it was difficult to take a step forward, and he stood in the cold wind at the door for a while before shaking his hand and pushing the door open.

Prince Shan, knowing that he had been standing at the door of the house since he returned, and also knew that he was difficult to accept, so he did not urge him, but now when he saw him come in, he smiled kindly at him, "Are you back?" ”

Chu Chen nodded.

He now knows everything, but he can no longer say anything to question his grandfather or ask him to stop his grandfather from dying, Zhang Zaifu calculated him back then, and he didn't give him a way back, and now, he has no way back, the only way is to die and apologize.

He looked at the glass of wine on the table, his eyes were red for a moment, and he looked away and stopped looking.

"After I die, this palace will be handed over to you, grandpa's life is a lesson, you are smarter than grandpa, be careful in everything, sometimes, if you are on the road, it will be a lifetime." Prince Shan Dundun taught, as before, but what he said was a parting word, "You are not young, after I die, it is good to keep filial piety for one year, there is no need to keep it for three years, delay the marriage, and your sister, too." ”

Chu Chen was silent.

"Do you hear that? These were Grandpa's only last words. Prince Shan, "Don't say anything else, you understand." ”

Chu Chen pursed his lips stiffly, and finally nodded.

Prince Shanshan smiled, "Don't think about me, I will go down and reunite with your father." ”

He looked at Chu Chen, his eyes showed reluctance, regret, sorrow, and getting rid of it, and he picked up his wine glass.

Chu Chen took a step forward and stretched out his hand, as if to stop him.

Prince Shan waved his hand at him, did not let him come forward, and drank the wine neatly.

Chu Chen finally stepped forward, hugged him after his wine glass fell off, and cried.

Prince Shan also shed tears, reached out to touch Chu Chen's face, and coaxed him like when he was a child, "Be good, don't cry." ”

As soon as he said a word, he slowly closed his eyes and died of poison.

He chose the strongest medicine, which was highly poisonous, and he didn't want his relatives to watch him uncomfortable being tortured by the poison, and he didn't want to torture himself, so he ended happily.

In the hall, Chu Siyan cried out loudly, she was called by Prince Good to say goodbye one step earlier, she had already cried once, and now she cried even more earth-shatteringly.

The people of Prince Shan's Mansion also cried in unison.

Prince Shan, in this life, if you say he is bad, he is not so bad, he has never asked to fight for that position, he has always known how to protect himself, cherish the feathers of Prince Shan's mansion, but unfortunately, the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet twenty years ago, careless, was calculated, so that in these twenty years, although standing in the light, but living in the dark.

Everyone in Prince Shan's Mansion mourned his death.

After Chu Chen cried for a while, he calmly ordered, "Install the coffin, build the mourning hall, and choose a day for mourning." ”

The housekeeper nodded with tears in his eyes and took the order.

Prince Good walked during the day, and at night, the Emperor Taishang didn't hold it up and died. As the bell that symbolized the death of the Emperor Taishang rang, the former generation of emperors also ended up with the fate he deserved.

Chu Xian was unconscious, Gu Qingyan sat in the Great Prince's Mansion and dispatched people to arrange the funeral of the Emperor Taishang.

On the second day, the eldest prince woke up from a coma, learned everything, was silent for a long time, and said to Gu Qingyan, "Huai'an, thank you for your hard work." ”

Gu Qingyan was busy for two days without closing his eyes, rubbing his eyebrows, "Your Highness takes care of your injuries." ”

"Did you send a letter to the seventh brother?" Chu Xian asked.

Gu Qingyan nodded, "Go." reported that the Emperor Taishang had died, and His Royal Highness was slightly injured. He also informed about the death of Jang Jae-fu, Concubine Xian, and Prince Shan. ”

Chu Xian nodded, thinking of Chu Chen, he also sighed, "Chu Chen is okay?" ”

"It's not good at the moment." Gu Qingyan said, "But if you lose Prince Shan, you will cheer up." ”

Chu Xian nodded, looked at Gu Qingyan's eyes and turned red, and said to him, "Huai'an, you go and rest!" Leave the matter to your subordinates first, if you burn your body, Lord An Xiaojun should ask me for guilt. ”

Gu Qingyan smiled, nodded, and stood up, "Since His Highness has woken up, I can rest for half a day." ”

The Great Prince's Mansion had his guest house, but he still returned to Gu's house.

Old Man Gu was tired when he saw him coming back, "Your Highness is awake?" ”

"Wake up." Gu Qingyan nodded.

Old Man Gu sighed, even if it was him, he didn't know that there was anything about Prince Shan, and he didn't expect that Zhang Zaifu really dared to give birth to a third prince with Concubine Xian, he patted his grandson on the shoulder, "Go and rest!" ”

Gu Qingyan bowed, went back to the room, and fell asleep.

The capital is relatively close to Mobei, so Chu Yan received a letter from the capital first.

When he had read it, he clutched the letter and stood in front of the window for an hour.

When Su Han came to find it, he noticed that something was wrong with Chu Yan and asked him, "Your Highness, what's wrong?" A letter from the capital? But what's going on? ”

"The Emperor has died." Chu Yan said.

Su Han was stunned for a moment, "The Emperor is ...... Isn't it very tough?"

After all, so many big things have happened, and the world has scolded him, and it hasn't made him sick, and when he left the capital, he looked very fine, and that look, even if he struggled to live for two or three years, it wouldn't be a problem.

Chu Yan said, "Chu Yun set fire to the Taishang Emperor's bedroom, he inhaled a lot of smoke, and he was sick, so he didn't survive. ”

Su Han: "......"

He thought about it for a long time before he remembered that the third prince, Chu Yun.

Chu Yan didn't say anything more, and threw Gu Qingyan's letter to him.

Su Han stretched out his hand to take it, Gu Qingyan's letter was concise and clear, but the content was tantamount to the rumble of siege artillery.

After Su Han saw it, he really didn't know what to say, and handed the letter back to Chu Yan, "The Emperor has died, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going back to the capital for the funeral, right?" ”

Chu Yan casually threw the letter into the furnace, and his tone was a little hoarse, "The war is tight, and the state affairs are important." ”

Su Han shut up.

Indeed, in the past few days, An Huajin and Wang Anzhi have made no progress, the battle ahead is deadlocked, and after Nanliang and Nanqi quickly blocked the soldiers and horses of Great Chu, the Qiliang army surrounded in Mobei launched a new round of offensive, which was as fierce as at the beginning, His Royal Highness the Prince really could not leave, he stayed in Mobei, which was the military heart of Mobei.

Half a month later, Chu Xian recovered from his injuries, beheaded Concubine Xian's mother, and kicked Concubine Xian out of the royal family.

Prince Good apologized for his crime with death, and read Chu Chen's meritorious work in tracking down the three princes, and did not hold the rest of Prince Shan's mansion responsible.

Emperor Taishang died, even if he suffered the world's infamy, but there should be funeral rules after death, so he stopped for 7749 days and sent the funeral to the imperial mausoleum.

In a flash, two months passed in a hurry.

In the past two months, the capital has been shrouded in black and oppressive clouds, and the dead silence is breathless.

It wasn't until two months later that news came from the front that Anhua Jin had broken the fourth city of Southern Liang, and Wang Anzhi had broken the fourth city of Southern Qi, Fuxiang, and the news came to the capital, and the capital suddenly broke the black oppressive clouds and jumped up again with joy.

At this time, it has also reached the end of the year, and it is the Spring Festival of another year.

Due to the death of the emperor, too many things have happened in the capital, and there is a war ahead, so even if the New Year is approaching, there is not much joyful and festive atmosphere in the capital.

Gu Qingyan came to the palace again in the palace on this day under the snow, and said to Chu Xian, "Your Highness, I found the news of Chu Yun at the border, and I plan to take someone to chase it personally." ”

Chu Xian was stunned, "You want to take someone to chase after you personally?" Going to the border? ”

"Hmm." Gu Qingyan was very sure, "Jingzhong is almost stable, with His Royal Highness here, Chu Chen here, Jiang Yunzhi and others are talented and able to do practical things, even if I go out of Beijing, it shouldn't be a big problem." ”

Chu Xian looked him up and down, and finally stared at him, "If you want to chase Chu Yun, there is really no need for you to go in person." Do you want to meet Lord Ann? ”

Gu Qingyan smiled, "Well, I miss her." ”

Chu Xian's teeth were sour for a while, and he asked, "How long will it take to come back?" ”

"Two months?"

"No, it's been too long." Chu Xian felt that he couldn't do without Gu Qingyan, don't look at him in the capital, he could do many things easily, but when it came to someone else, it might not be easy, and it would delay time and delay things. The families were temporarily suppressed by them, but the century-old families are intertwined, how can they be so easy to purge.

"That's a month and a half." Gu Qingyan took a step back.

Chu Xian gritted his teeth, "One month." ”

Gu Qingyan raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Yan, and smiled slowly, "Okay." ”

Chu Xian: "......"

He was going to go for a month, right? I'm afraid that he won't agree, so he said it for two months?

Fooled!
