Chapter 13: Evasion
Outside the Changning Palace, the Flame Emperor held the jade pendant so tightly, and after coming out of the Changning Palace, he didn't say a word, his face was dark and gloomy, until Gonggong Yan ordered someone to bring the dragon chariot, and he did not hesitate to sit on the dragon chariot and leave the Changning Palace.
Just left Gu Lao Wangye, Gu Yanting, and Mo Chengbei in this way, Gu Yanting and Mo Chengbei looked unknown from entering Changning Palace to coming out, so I never thought that when I came to this Changning Palace today, I would experience this, and I don't know why I was named.
The two of them didn't know what to do at all, so they could only look at Old Prince Gu in a daze, Mo Chengbei took the lead in breaking the embarrassment, and called softly: "Old Prince, we are ......", Old Prince Gu looked at the two descendants in front of him, smiled lightly and said: "You two are the emperor's right-hand men, good brothers, you two will go with you to have a look and accompany you."
"Grandfather, what about you?" , "It's good for the old man to go out of the palace by himself, you and Chengbei go and have a look", "Then I'll send you out of the palace first", "No, the old man is not old enough to walk the road, you two go quickly", "Then ......", "Then the prince, be careful on the road, we will go to the emperor first", Gu Yanting wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Mo Chengbei, and pulled Gu Yanting to leave.
"Let's go, let's go......", "Then grandfather, be careful on the road, the child will retire first", Gu Yanting couldn't resist Mo Chengbei's stiff pull, so he could only say goodbye to the old prince Gu temporarily, and the carriage was outside the palace, so there was really no need to worry too much: "Then, prince, you should slow down on the road, Gu Yanting and I will go first."
Mo Chengbei pulled Gu Yanting and walked straight to the imperial study, Emperor Yan would study hard as long as he had a mind since he was a child, and he was a workaholic when he grew up.
Old Lord Gu looked at the distant backs of the two of them, his eyes were full of love and a trace of imperceptible envy and reluctance. He also had the heat of this innocence back then, and the years with Emperor Gaozu were also young and frivolous, chic and wanton.
It's just that the matter of this government has disappeared, and he wants to use the rest of his life to try his best to preserve their originality. But he also understands that born in this palace gate, sooner or later, they will be like their current self, carrying heavy burdens and walking with difficulty, this is their fate that they can't get rid of, he only hopes that the time to protect them can be longer, so that they can face it later.
Old Prince Gu stroked his beard, strode out of the palace gate, and got into the carriage, he was really tired today.
Outside the imperial study, "Father-in-law Yan, how is the emperor?" "Back to the young general, it's not good, I haven't squeaked until now", Mo Chengbei looked at Gu Yanting helplessly, and didn't know what to do.
Gu Yanting had no choice but to speak: "Please also bother Father-in-law Yan to report that we are waiting outside the palace, when does the emperor want to see us, summon it", "This can only be the case, then trouble Father-in-law Yan, Gu Yanting and I are waiting."
"The old slave, let's go in and report it, with you here, the emperor may be better", they nodded to Gonggong Yan and motioned for him to report quickly. "Then let's wait outside here" After Mo Chengbei saw Gonggong Yan enter, he said to Gu Yanting, who nodded.
After a while, Father-in-law Yan came out of the imperial study with a solemn expression, Gu Yanting felt bad at first glance, his brows sank, and Mo Chengbei asked eagerly as soon as he saw Father-in-law Yan come out, "How is Father-in-law Yan?" What did the emperor say? Want to meet us? When will you see you? ”。
"Young General, the emperor said that he doesn't want to see you now, please go back first, and the emperor will summon him in the future", "Father-in-law Yan, did you tell the emperor, said that we can wait, when you want to meet, just see you again", "Yes, you said, can we wait?" ”。
Mo Chengbei and Gu Yanting couldn't believe it, Emperor Yan didn't even want to see them, and the Queen Mother really broke the emperor's heart today. "It's said, it's all said, the emperor said that you don't need to wait here, please go back first, the emperor will summon you in the future, the two of you should go back first, the emperor is here, the old slave will take care of it."
"Does the emperor really not want to see us?" Mo Chengbei still asked with a dead heart. "General Mo, Commander Gu, please go back" Mo Chengbei was still unwilling, and wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Gu Yanting.
"Let's go, let's go back first", after speaking, he nodded his head to Gonggong Yan, and then turned to leave, Mo Chengbei saw that Gu Yanting left him and left, and hurriedly followed, and said in his mouth: "Aren't you worried about the emperor?" Now the emperor doesn't even want to see us, you can rest assured ......", as he spoke, Mo Chengbei didn't notice that Gu Yanting suddenly stopped, and almost bumped into him, but fortunately he was agile.
Gu Yanting turned around, frowned slightly, and said, "Quiet, quiet, okay?" "It's not quiet, even we're gone", Gu Yanting glanced at him angrily, turned around and left without anything to say, "Hey, ......, you wait for you", Mo Chengbei hurriedly chased after him, still muttering in his mouth.
