The rain was pouring down, but it was still pouring down.

The dark clouds overwhelmed, making the entire Shuntian Mansion dim.

It's like a post-apocalyptic scene.

For the emperor, this is indeed an end of the world.

Not only is it the end of heaven and earth, but it is also the end of Great Xia and the end of imperial power!

Looking at the emperor who fell into the muddy water without the majesty of the royal family, many eunuchs and palace maids present actually felt a sense of sadness at this moment.

The dignified Emperor of Great Xia has now fallen to this fate......

It's embarrassing and impressive.

Of course, this mood is only for a moment, and they are more worried about their fate.

This Jinyi guard commander launched the palace rebellion with such fanfare, and killed so many people, especially the East and West Second Factory, which was almost wiped out by him.

This...... Will it affect them?

Everyone was uneasy.

Just when everyone was thinking about it, Gu Fengqing slowly walked in front of the emperor at this time.

Bending down, he grabbed the emperor's arm and helped him up.

Then he helped the emperor and walked towards the imperial study.

"Master Gu......"

Seeing this scene, Zhu Yongchang's eyes flashed, as if he had just come back to his senses and wanted to speak.

However, as soon as he spoke, he heard Gu Fengqing say, "Lord Wang, don't worry......"

"The agreement between you and me, Gu will abide by it as usual!"

"When this happens, Gu will send someone to inform the prince of the specific whereabouts of that thing!"

These words reached Zhu Yongchang's ears, and he immediately stopped.

He watched the emperor walk towards the imperial study with Gu Fengqing's support, his eyes kept flickering, but after all, he ......

He took a step back anyway.

"Lord ......"

The four spies stepped forward, each with a look of anxiety on their faces, as if they wanted to say something.

They didn't finish their words, but Zhu Yongchang understood their reasoning.

With a wave of his hand, he stopped what they were about to say, and stared closely at the closed door of the imperial study, and after a long time, he looked away as if he was relieved.

It's just that there is a twinkle in his eyes: "Don't worry!"

"Although Jinyiwei has won a big victory today, after all, he is not covering the sky with one hand, and he dares to risk the world's disapproval, not to mention ...... The first floor of my world is still alive, and they will never dare to be unfavorable to the emperor!"

"Then this Lord Gu ......" Li Jiansheng still wanted to say something.

"At this moment, they are spying, it should be this Lord Gu who wants to eliminate the estrangement in His Majesty's heart!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Yongchang suddenly smiled and said: "Don't worry, this Lord Gu seems to be arrogant, but after all, he still has a fear of imperial power in his heart!"

"If not, how could he be so polite to Your Majesty today?

"To put it bluntly, his unscrupulous and arrogant arrogance is just a pretense!"

Hearing this, the four spies glanced at each other.

Regarding Zhu Yongchang's words, they are a little skeptical.

No matter who can see it, this Jinyi Guard commander makes Master Gu clearly have no fear of the imperial power, and no matter how you look at it, he will never be a person who will succumb to the imperial power.

But the prince ......

Why do you say that?

It stands to reason that he should be able to see it.

The four of them thought so, but they didn't dare to continue thinking about it.

None of them saw that the sloppy man standing behind Zhu Yongchang raised his head after hearing this, and glanced at Zhu Yongchang with his eyes.

In that cloudy gaze, there was a touch of brilliance at this moment.

If someone sees his eyes at this moment, they will find that this brilliance in his eyes is clearly -

Disdain!

Inside the Imperial Study.

Gu Fengqing helped the emperor to the throne and let him sit down peacefully.

This move made the emperor even more uneasy in his heart, he looked at Gu Fengqing, his face was bloodless, and he stammered: "Gu, Gu Aiqing...... What are you?"

After speaking, he didn't wait for Gu Fengqing to speak, and hurriedly said: "Gu Aiqing, I, I am not thin on you, I called you from Ying Tianfu at the beginning, personally promoted you, and promoted you to the commander of the Jinyi Guard, you ......"

"Do you, do you really want to ...... Do you want to rebel?"

His teeth chattered, and he said in trepidation.

The word rebellion, he has said many times today.

It can be imagined that at this moment, he was terrified and uneasy.

He really wanted to know what Gu Fengqing wanted to do!

Is he going to rebel or not!

"Your Majesty, rest assured, Jinyiwei has no intention of rebelling!"

Facing the emperor who was worried in his heart, Gu Fengqing's eyes were calm, and he looked directly at him: "This time the Jinyi guard entered the palace because of your majesty's will, so that in addition to the eunuch party and the Qing monarch, everything he did was also based on the society of the Great Xia River, and there was absolutely no selfishness!"

"But the emperor is so suspicious of Jinyiwei and Weichen, isn't he afraid of chilling the hearts of loyal ministers such as us?"

Loyalists?

Listening to Gu Fengqing's words, the emperor was so angry for a moment that he almost didn't spit out a mouthful of blood.

You killed the prime minister of the court and my personal eunuch in front of me, and now you say that you are loyal to me?

Is there such a loyal servant in the world?

How can there be such a single-minded public service in the world?

Everything he did showed this person's wolf ambition, but at this time, this person could still say such things with a calm face.

By this time, the emperor had already seen it!

This commander of the brocade guard who he personally raised with his own hands clearly did not have the slightest awe for the imperial power of Great Xia and for him, the Son of Heaven!

Previously, he had learned from Wei Zhongxian and others that Gu Fengqing had a nickname on the rivers and lakes, called the Sword Demon.

It is said that this person is unscrupulous, arrogant, and empty-sighted, and relies on the prestige of Jinyiwei and personal force to indiscriminately kill innocents and slaughter the Central Plains.

In the past, the emperor thought that this was slandered by Wei Zhongxian, and even exaggerated.

But when he saw Gu Fengqing's methods at this moment, he finally understood!

Wei Zhongxian's evaluation of Gu Fengqing did not have the slightest mistake or omission!

even underestimated Gu Fengqing-

Where is this person unscrupulous, arrogant and domineering, he is clearly free of taboos, and he does not take the world in his eyes!

In this person's opinion, as long as a knife is in hand, there is no one in the world who cannot be killed!

Including him, the emperor!

This thought came out of his life, and it immediately made the emperor's heart skip a beat.

However, Gu Fengqing's words also made the emperor's heart settle down a little - Jin Yiwei really had no intention of rebelling!

As long as he doesn't rebel, then there is still something to talk about!

Even if you kill so many people in front of him right now, it doesn't matter!

As long as Jin Yiwei doesn't rebel, then he still has a chance!

It's just that compared to the previous four major forces, the situation has become nothing more than a big force!

The environment is still the same as before.

He, the emperor, is still the emperor.

It's not better than it used to be, but it's not worse either.

He's still ...... Or the king of a country!

Even if it's just a mascot, a mascot on the surface, but that's enough!

Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no wood to burn!

At the beginning, he was able to support Jinyiwei under the control of the four major forces, although the supported Jinyiwei wolf ambition, but this also shows that he still has the opportunity to hold power!

It's nothing more than waiting for the opportunity in the future and continuing to support it!

The east factory is gone, the west factory is gone, then he will support an expert factory!

There are so many eunuchs and so many courtiers loyal to the emperor, he always has a chance!

With this in mind, the emperor finally calmed down.

He looked at Gu Fengqing, his eyes flickered for a moment, and then he said, "What Gu Aiqing said is very pertinent!"

"It's just that at this time, do you think I can still believe you? Do I still dare to believe you? You said that you are loyal to Great Xia and me, but what I see and what the people of the world see is just your wolf ambition!"

The emperor's words were just to force Jinyiwei to bow down to the emperor.

As long as we ensure that Jinyiwei does not rebel, then we will still be the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and we will still be the courtiers of Great Xia!

As a courtier, even if you Gu Fengqing are just pretending, you must kneel down for the emperor to show your loyalty!

There is no doubt that the emperor, having secured his own safety, began to manipulate power again.

It's just this means......

"It's obvious!"

Although the emperor learned to manipulate power and maneuver people's hearts at such a young age under the pressure of the forces of the Quartet, he ...... after all Still too young!

The corners of Gu Fengqing's mouth hooked up a touch of arc, and the sneer was undisguised.

I saw him say softly: "Did the emperor ever know that now Daxia has reached a situation of internal and external troubles?"

"The emperor should still remember the previous rebellion case of King Xin and King Yu, right? The reason why these two princes want to rebel is that they are all supported by the people of the rivers and lakes!"

"Their subordinates all have a large number of people in the rivers and lakes, and even King Yu has colluded with the largest sword school in Dongying!"

"The strength of the rivers and lakes obtained by these two is only medium!"

"Does the emperor know how far the rivers and lakes have developed now?"

Without waiting for the emperor to reply, Gu Fengqing said to himself: "Shaolin and Wudang, the two major martial arts holy places, have tens of thousands of disciples, masters like clouds, and many believers, and their power is deeply rooted in the local area, and even the officials of the imperial court have to rely on their snorts to survive!"

"This kind of action, although it is only a Jianghu sect, is no less than the princes of one side!"

"Even the princes are inferior to them! If the princes rebel, the people will not dare to obey them at all! But these Jianghu sects are both sects and beliefs, and they have a very high prestige in the local area! Disciples are all over the world, and the emperor ...... think about it."

"If these people want to rebel, what should the Great Xia Dynasty do?

As soon as these words came out, the emperor's face suddenly changed greatly.

However, before he could speak, Gu Fengqing said again: "The forces of the rivers and lakes have reached the point where they must be suppressed, so Weichen is killing the rivers and lakes on a large scale, in order to suppress the forces of the rivers and lakes, so that they will not be big in the future!"

"And this is just an internal worry!"

"Compared with internal worries, my external troubles in Daxia can be said to be more than equal!"

"Dongying Martial Artist Weichen has seen many times, this time Lingwu Mountain also appeared Dongying Martial Artist, Lingwu Mountain is at the foot of the capital, what does this mean? Dongying's tentacles have touched my Great Xia's capital! Even in this capital, it has been deeply rooted!"

"The ambition of the wolf son in the east, Liaodong is even more eyeing, the northwest grassland has also knocked on the customs many times, and the land of Baiyue in the south has been in a situation of erosion over the years......"

As Gu Fengqing analyzed, the emperor's face became more and more ugly.

His fear began to fade away, replaced by endless anger.

In addition to the anger, he felt a chill surging up from the soles of his feet, which made his back chill and his hairs stand on end...... It wasn't until this moment that he understood.

It turns out that the situation in Great Xia has collapsed to this point!

Far more complicated than he thought!

originally thought that he only needed to break through the layers of restrictions on the second factory of the east and west, the cabinet and the first floor of the world, and gather the power, so that he could rest easy!

But now it seems......

"Does the emperor really think that his country is eternal, and his throne is also very stable?"

Gu Fengqing chuckled and said: "To tell the truth, although Wei Zhongxian and the others are eunuchs, they deceive their superiors and subordinates and do all kinds of evil, and almost all of them are their minions!

"If it weren't for them, the emperor would have been in ruins at this moment!"

"Of course ......"

Speaking of this, Gu Fengqing suddenly changed his words: "There are so many of them, they all have their own selfishness!"

Either they use this matter to exclude dissidents and install henchmen, or they take money to fill their own pockets. ”

"Not to mention anything else, standing outside the hall at this moment, is the King of Wuwei really loyal to Your Majesty?"

As soon as these words came out, the emperor's eyes suddenly widened.

Behind it, a trace of cold sweat also quietly overflowed.

He understood the meaning of Gu Fengqing's words, and he also understood the meaning of Gu Fengqing's words—in fact, Gu Fengqing's words were not concealed at all.

It even seems obvious-

In today's situation, there is no Jinyi Guard...... How stable is your Great Xia?

How can your position as emperor be secured?

Now, now, from today onwards...... The only thing you can rely on is Jinyiwei!

Only the Son of Heaven pro-army brocade guard!

You have no other choice!

There is no doubt that this is a heart-wrenching statement!

And it was an obvious reprimand, but the emperor believed it.

He had to believe it!

Because of the current situation, it is indeed as Gu Fengqing said, he has no other choice!

Gu Fengqing's words can be said to have uncovered the last fig leaf of his big summer son.

Look at it as a sentence that pierces the heart, and the knife sees blood!

After saying this, Gu Fengqing didn't even salute, so he turned around and left.

Seeing Gu Fengqing leave so freely, the emperor was stunned for a while.

Seeing that Gu Fengqing was about to leave the imperial study, the emperor finally came back to his senses, and he couldn't help but say: "These people are all eyeing my throne, and they are all salivating over this Great Xia, and you ......."

"Don't you have the slightest idea?"

When these words came, Gu Fengqing, who was about to open the door of the imperial study, paused.

"Although the world is big and the throne is good, it is ...... for Gu"

"But after all, it's not as good as the knife in your hand!"

When the words fell, Gu Fengqing opened the door with both hands and walked out.

In the same place, only the emperor was left standing there alone.

Gu Fengqing's words echoed in his ears, and he looked at Gu Fengqing's departing back in disbelief-

He couldn't imagine that the throne that the world was rushing to,

In the presence of this man,

Not even a knife in his hand?

And listening to the meaning of his words, he even disdains this throne.

Could it be that the position of the Son of Heaven in this Great Xia,

And then in his heart,

Is it really that unmentionable?

......

......
