Great Chu is one of the three major powers of the Eastern Nations Alliance of the Taichao Divine Continent, and the capital Shangjing is also one of the few super cities on the mainland, with a permanent population of more than one million.

The Murong family sent a large number of people to visit the inn and inn in the city for two or three days, but they found nothing, seeing that the period of the Great Chu Autumn Hunt had arrived, many children of the Murong family had to participate, and they could no longer devote their minds and energy to take care of it, so they had to put the search for Zhao Side on hold for the time being.

In the early morning of this day, the blue sky is like washing, the sky is cloudless, the autumn breeze is cool, and the end is a good weather for traveling to the suburbs.

Outside the noon gate, on the flat and wide square paved by huge bluestones, the elite Longxiang army in the Great Chu Praetorian Guard stood solemnly in four squares, the armor was distinct, the spears were forested, the swords were like the sea, thousands of people and horses were silent, and only the sound of hunting in the strong wind was heard.

In the sound of golden drums, the majestic and heavy main gate of the Great Chu Palace slowly opened, and after the solemn and gorgeous guard of honor, a gold-inlaid jade canopy was like a pavilion, and Luan Yu was pulled by sixteen tall horses with white sideburns without a trace of impurities, rolling out of the red carpet.

"Hooray, hooray, hooray......"

Long Xiangjun suddenly raised his spear, the mountain shouted long live, the deafening sound waves went straight to the sky, and the tide of the sea generally rolled away, enduring, making people's blood churning.

The curtains on the chariots were all made of pearls of comparable size and rolled up, revealing Emperor Xuanwei's not very tall and sturdy body.

On both sides of the square, the princes and ministers with gold and purple bowed down one after another, and shouted in unison Long live our emperor.

Emperor Xuanwei has an excellent complexion today. There is also a layer of red light hidden on the wrinkled face, and the bearing is majestic and solemn. He glanced at the subjects who were respectfully prostrate in front of him, and there were waves in his heart that he hadn't seen for a long time, as if he had returned to the exciting moment when he first ascended to the throne of the world decades ago and accepted the congratulations of hundreds of officials and knelt down nine times and shouted long live. At that time, I was so heroic and full of hesitation. He worked tirelessly to govern government affairs all day long, vowing to be a wise monarch who worked hard to govern the people, but in a blink of an eye, he was already dying of old age like a candle in the wind......

Vaguely, Emperor Xuanwei felt a few hot lines of sight in the crowd, he squinted his eyes slightly, and saw a few familiar faces, which were his sons.

On those faces with different eyebrow contours, Emperor Xuanwei found an exact same desire. It was a strong, fanatical desire for supreme power. This longing was also so familiar to Emperor Xuanwei, and during his years as a prince, this longing burned his body and soul all the time, and lasted until the day he put on the dragon crown and stepped on the throne.

To be a good king, it is not enough to have great ambition, but also to have great strength, iron wrists, stoic and resolute will, and much more. In the not-too-distant future, Great Chu especially needed such a powerful emperor.

My sons. I will give you a fair arena to fight, and if you want to win and finally reach the pinnacle of power, swing your long-standing fists, draw your sharpened swords, and fight with all your might to bring down your brothers. Don't blame me for my ruthlessness, just blame you for being born into the royal family. I am your father, but I am also the monarch of countless people of Great Chu, and for the future of Great Chu, the successor to the throne of Great Chu must be the strongest and most strategic of your brothers. Or, it can also be said to be the most cold-blooded, cunning and cruel one......

recalled a secret conversation with the left and right national teachers not long ago. Emperor Xuanwei's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he finally made up his mind and slowly raised his hand.

Long Yuan stopped in the middle of the square, and the attendant eunuch accompanying him under the car pulled a sharp and long tone: "The emperor has a decree ......"

One of your light clicks warmed my whole codeword life. Log in to yy. to support genuine literature

"What, the emperor wants to come to this year's autumn hunting ceremony in person? Didn't you originally say that it would be co-hosted by the three princes? And the emperor is already old and in poor health, this autumn hunting meeting will be held for several days, can the emperor still withstand this tiring ride?"

After the decree was issued, a swarm of wasps flew on the square, and the civil and military officials, princes and nobles were greatly surprised, and they began to talk about each other. It is a clear fact that Emperor Xuanwei has been in a state of mind for a long time, and today he can appear in such a mental state, which has already made everyone feel very surprised, and now he suddenly issued an edict to participate in the autumn hunt in person, which is even more unexpected to everyone, and secretly speculates about the intention behind it.

The eldest prince, the second prince, and the seventh prince stood at the front of the crowd, and the suspicion in their hearts was even worse, and they all looked to the side, but from the faces of their brothers, they saw the same confusion, and the cold hostility and hatred hidden deep in their eyes, but there was no trace of family affection.

As soon as the eyes of the three princes intertwined slightly, they immediately separated, and secretly sent a signal to their right-hand men.

Since the oracle has been announced in public, there will be no room for change, and preparations have been made, and after arranging the affairs of the government in Beijing, the holy car, which was originally just a send-off, will set off.

The paddock of the autumn hunt is not too far from the capital, and there are only three or four hours of horse journey, and the imperial tomb of Dachu is on the edge of the paddock. Usually, every autumn hunt is also the annual ritual period for the Great Chu royal family to worship their ancestors.

The emperor went out on patrol, accompanied by the honor guard of the brigade and the harem concubine, the pomp was vast, the speed was naturally quite slow, and after walking for a day, Fang arrived at the imperial tomb before sunset. Emperor Xuanwei lived in the palace, and the rest of the people, including the princes, set aside sites of different sizes around the palace to camp and stay.

As soon as the tent was set up, the same news reached the ears of the three princes in almost no particular order.

This news can be called a thunderbolt on the ground, and it shocked the three princes for a long time. The gist of the news is that, according to reliable sources, a few days ago, the two national teachers of Dachu diagnosed that Emperor Xuanwei's condition had completely deteriorated, and his remaining life was only more than a month. Emperor Xuanwei, who proclaimed himself a generation of Ming monarchs, did not want to die of illness on the couch. I have taken Tanabata pill last night. Once taken, no matter what kind of serious illness you are suffering from, or how serious the injury is, or even if you have not been out of breath for a long time, you can also save it, and you can live for another seven days. But. If a person who is extremely healthy eats the Tanabata Pill, his life can only survive for seven days in the world.

Obviously, Emperor Xuanwei folded the few remaining Yangshou to take the Qixi Dan, the purpose of which was to show the last style of his life in front of all beings in the world. Based on the validity period of the Qixi Dan, Emperor Xuanwei will be buried six days later, that is, on the night of the end of the autumn hunt and the martial arts conference.

This means that the ownership of the throne of Great Chu will also be revealed before that moment, and no matter what, Emperor Xuanwei must announce the heir to the imperial power before his death. Otherwise, Da Chu, whose throne has not been decided, will definitely fall into the civil strife of the prince to seize the throne.

The situation happened too suddenly, who will the crown of the next emperor of Great Chu fall on?

For this answer, the three princes with the highest call for succession have no bottom in their hearts. What should I do, wait for that moment to come, or do I take some necessary action? The hands and feet of the three princes were cold, but their chests were hot. The blood was green and could barely breathe.

In the sky, the last trace of dark red and blood-like sunset disappeared, and the night finally fell completely, and a crescent moon was like a knife, sprinkling the cold light from the sky.

At the end of the day. The clouds on the sky gradually became denser, covering the wheel like a knife and bending the moon, and the ground scenery was sometimes bright and sometimes hazy.

Gui Shi'er led a group of forbidden troops on a routine patrol at the edge of the imperial mausoleum, and he is now a deputy lieutenant. Originally, I didn't have to personally lead the team to patrol the night, but tonight the situation was special, and I couldn't slack off.

The night breeze blows, sending a refreshing coolness into the heavy leather armor, which makes people feel refreshed, and it is really an extremely comfortable and comfortable autumn night.

Gui Shi'er's mood was extremely uneasy, like the night sky at the moment, and his heart was full of doubts.

At present, the military deployment of the imperial tomb is quite strange, and the guard duties of the imperial tomb and the palace were originally assumed by the forbidden army guarding the tomb. This kind of dispatch was originally appropriate, and the combat effectiveness of the Longxiang army to protect the emperor's safety was naturally much higher than that of the Tomb Guarding Forbidden Army, but the strange thing was that the above did not issue an order for the Tomb Guarding Forbidden Army to withdraw, but let them be stationed in place, and did not assign generals to command them in a unified manner. In this way, two armies belonging to different armies are equivalent to being stationed in one place, and the defense line seems to be much tighter, but in fact, the disadvantages are far greater than the convenience, and in case of any unexpected incident, it will be quite difficult for the two armies to integrate normally, let alone be able to respond in time.

Even if the commander in charge of the deployment of the autumn hunting army is idiotic and incompetent, it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake of military common sense, and Gui Shi'er really can't understand the reason for this.

Also, this autumn hunting period has always been a grand event in Dachu, and there are countless children of high-ranking officials, nobles and wealthy families who participate, not only to shine in front of the emperor through autumn hunting and martial arts, but also to win a convenient way to promotion. And there are many ladies and ladies of various families in the attendees, and the night during this grand event is a good time to gather and indulge in carnivals. All in all, the sultry and intoxicating autumn breeze at night here is better than the spring breeze.

Therefore, in previous years, the lively and jubilant hunting camp in autumn can be imagined, the bonfire is like stars in the sky, and you can hear singing and laughing everywhere until dawn. But tonight, there were few bonfires, and the occasional half-grown boy and girl chased and frolicked outside, and were soon reprimanded by the adults and returned to their respective camps, and the huge camp was deserted.

As for what kind of changes will happen, after all, he is just a deputy lieutenant with a humble position, and a lot of information is not his turn to contact at all, so he has no way to think about it, only secretly guessing in his stomach.

Seeing Gui Shi'er's uneasy look, Sun Qinggang, who was good friends with him, was the junior colonel of this forbidden army, they were friends who carried guns together and stayed in the kiln together, and they didn't need to scruple much about each other, so they approached and laughed in a low voice: "Lord Captain is in a bad mood, could it be that he got along with a young lady in Beijing a while ago, and now he is suffering from lovesickness?"

"your captain, old grandson, why are you becoming more and more virtuous with that guy Li Chong, and come to chill me if you have nothing to do?" Gui Shi'er glared at him. He raised his chin and nodded in the direction of the autumn hunting camp, and said, "Old Sun, I'm wondering, is the situation over there a little abnormal?"

Sun Qinggang put away his smiling face and waved his hand to the soldiers behind him, asking them to stay away a little. Cai whispered: "I'm also thinking about this, and I want to talk to you when I go back." It's not that this situation is abnormal, but it's fucking weird, last year was not like this, every night, those young masters and young ladies ate and drank enough, that big momentum, if you don't turn this land over, you will never stop, what moment of the night has you been so quiet today?" He is a veteran of the forbidden army guarding the mausoleum. Last year, I was also stationed here, and I felt the difference between before and after.

Cautiously looking around, Sun Qinggang whispered again: "Lao Gui, although we are not born and died in a fateful relationship, we are not much closer, so I have to say some things." Look at this sign right now, maybe something big will happen, and we're just counting on a little minions who can make ends meet. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't bother with what you shouldn't. If something really happens, you can't listen to all the orders from above, no matter what, it's most important to save your life first. ”

His words were unexpected, and he shook his head and said, "Old Sun, you can't say it all. ”

Sun Qinggang's complexion changed slightly. Secretly regretting that he was too straightforward, he smiled and said: "Also, can we still be pawns who disobey our own decisions? ”

Gui Shi'er patted his arm and said with a smile: "Old Sun." What are you talking about, do you think I'm messing with you...... You're right, I mean, in addition to this, we can't just wait and do nothing, at the very least, we have to inquire about the news, lest we have a black eye when the matter comes, and what is the difference between waiting for death? Although our lives are worthless, they are ultimately our own, and we must not be at the mercy of others, even the emperor and the old man. ”

Hearing him openly say such murderous words, Sun Qinggang was startled, staring at him as if he didn't know him, and only after a moment did he say excitedly: "Old Gui, no, return to the boss, I, Sun Qinggang, think that I am not small, I don't want to compare with you, I am nothing at all...... Return to the boss, my Sun Qing just came out of his mother's belly and haven't really served others, so I will follow you with iron heart from now on. ”

Gui Shi'er nodded, and was about to speak, when he suddenly realized something in his heart, Huo Di raised his head, his eyes shot like an arrow to a small hill full of artemisia grass in front of him, and shouted in a deep voice: "Who is it?"

When the soldiers in the rear heard the sound, they all vigilantly raised their spears and rattan shields in their hands, and scattered their patrols to form a battle formation and rushed forward. He was quite satisfied with their reactions, these soldiers were brought out by him in normal times, and they were trained completely according to the formation taught by Di Xiaoshi, and they usually practiced extremely hard, although they were recruits who had never been in battle, they were also a little decent. Of course, the combat effectiveness still needs to be tested in actual combat, after all, even Gui Shier himself has never been on the battlefield once.

In the hazy moonlight, a figure separated the long artemisia grass and walked out. Gui Shi'er stared at it, but saw that the person who came was wearing a black power suit for night action, with a slender figure, and it was actually the Lingji County Lord with a very rude temperament, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and his heart quickly changed his mind, and he waved his hand to retreat the soldiers.

Just as he was about to give a salute, the Lord of Lingji shook his hand at him, and quickly disappeared into the long grass, obviously not wanting to be exposed. Gui Shi'er understood and instructed Sun Qinggang to lead the team to continue the patrol, and he himself walked towards the hills.

The two met behind the hills, and when they looked closely, they saw that the county lord of Lingji had a trace of panic and anxiety on his face, and Gui Shi'er faintly guessed some clues, and said in a low voice: "I have seen His Royal Highness the County Lord in Xia, I don't know what is the important matter for His Royal Highness the County Lord to find him so late?"

Lord Lingji seemed to be really in a hurry, and he didn't say a word of nonsense, so he couldn't wait to say: "Gui Shi'er, the situation is urgent now, and my father needs your help." ”

The battle for the imperial power of Great Chu has reached the last moment? No wonder the county lord of Lingji would come alone at night, and when Gui Shi'er heard this, his heart was bright, but his face did not move at all, and he said: "Why did His Royal Highness the county lord say this? How noble is the status of King Jin's thousand-year-old, how can he need the help of his subordinates, and how can this statement not be broken?"

The county lord of Lingji raised his eyebrows, and said angrily: "The surname is Gui, you don't have to fight with me sloppily, you are loyal to the eldest brother, and you have also received five thousand taels of silver." Do you want to turn your face and deny it now? Believe it or not, the lord of this county will shake it out, and he will make you die without a place to be buried. ”

Gui Shi'er said indifferently: "Your Royal Highness, what you said is not right, when have you been loyal to His Royal Highness the Prince? As for the five thousand taels of silver, it was a kind gift from His Royal Highness the Prince. It was disrespectful under it, and it was accepted, and if His Royal Highness the county lord had any objections, he could take it back. There is no code in Da Chu that prohibits private individuals from accepting gifts, and His Royal Highness the county lord wants to cure his sins in this way, but it makes his subordinates feel inexplicable. ”

The county lord of Lingji was furious, but he couldn't refute it for a while, his chest rose and fell violently, and it took a long time to get out of his breath. Gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Okay, the lord of this county won't say much to you, how can you help my father?"

"I have said it below, but I dare not take it seriously. Gui Shi'er still said lightly: "Don't talk about King Jin's Chitose, it is a matter ordered by His Royal Highness the county lord, as long as it does not violate the law of the country and is within his ability, even if he has his liver and brains, he has to do it, and he will never dare to use the word help." ”

Listening to him, he blocked his words so hard that he didn't let go. The county lord of Lingji was anxious and anxious, and had no choice but to lower his posture and said, "Return to the school captain." I know that what my eldest brother promised you has not been able to do, but this is also because the time has not come, not my eldest brother's fault. The situation is really urgent at the moment, and if you are willing to help, you will be a great contributor to the success of the matter. Hugh said that even if he was promoted to the third level, he would become a general, and then he would be promoted to the marshal of the governor, and his wife and son would enjoy wealth forever. All these opportunities are up to you. ”

This unruly county lord was also a little scheming, and he didn't make too outrageous promises in a hurry. Instead, they first throw out a meat filling that is really possible, and then describe the bright prospects, so that people can believe that their sincerity is certain, so as to reassure themselves. Gui Shi'er thought in his heart, and said in his mouth: "Forgive me for being ignorant, I don't know what His Royal Highness the county lord has to serve below?"

Seeing that he was still pretending to be stupid and unmoved, the Lingji County Lord had nothing to do, so he suddenly sighed faintly and said, "Captain Gui, I understand, do you think I'm lying to you? I just want to take advantage of you first, and when the overall situation is decided, I will try every means to blame you?"

Gui Shi'er was silent, as if he was acquiescing.

The Lingji County Lord took a step closer to him, and said with grievances: "I admit that my attitude towards you is very bad. However, you don't want to think about it, first of all, you treated me like that, so that I couldn't get off the stage in front of many people, not to mention my identity as the county lord, I'm also a girl, of course I can't stand it. ”

"Alas. The Lingji County Lord sighed again, and then moved closer to Gui Shi'er, looked up at him and said: "It seems that you have a deep misunderstanding of me, and now it is useless for me to explain more, if this is the case, I swear to the sky now, I will not pursue the past, you should rest assured, right?"

"How dare you let His Royal Highness the county lord swear. Gui Shi'er's tone sounded a little loose, but he knew a little more about the Lingji County Lord in his heart, and he was able to act at the opportunity, put down his body and take care of the overall situation, and there was really no shortage of people in the royal family.

The Lingji County Lord was overjoyed, and his voice became softer: "Actually, do you know that although I was very angry at the time, but when I think about it later, I feel that you are not so hateful, and the reason is because I am too willful." Later, I really wanted to find a chance to make it clear to you, but as a girl, how can I wipe this face......

The more she spoke to the back, the softer her voice became, as if the whispers of a lover were tactful and resentful, and the two were so close to each other at this time that if someone who didn't know bumped into them, they would have thought that they were a close couple.

There was a strange glint in Gui Shi'er's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness the County Lord, are you serious?

Looking at his eyes, the Lingji County Lord suddenly felt a panic, lowered his head slightly and said, "This is nature, why should I lie to you about this kind of thing?"

A strange light flashed in Gui Shi'er's eyes, and he suddenly reached out and hugged her waist.

The Lingji County Lord was shocked and wanted to cry out, but he immediately came back to his senses and scolded in a low voice: "You don't want to die, let me go quickly." ”

Gui Shi'er hugged her tighter and said, "Your Royal Highness the county lord, I am not rare to be the marshal of everything, as long as you promise me one thing, I will obey your orders." ”

If he was given an iron arm, the county lord of Lingji couldn't break free with all his strength, and he knew that something was wrong, he was shocked, angry and afraid, and he was in a big mess, and said in a trembling voice: "You, what do you want to do? Do you know that indecent county lord is a big crime to be beheaded?" I can't believe that Gui Shi'er's courage is so big.

"Your Royal Highness the County Lord, haven't you read my information, how do you want to behead me all over the house?" Gui Shi'er laughed lowly: "Your Royal Highness the County Lord, my request is very simple, as long as you agree, you will have the opportunity to upgrade the title of the County Lord to a princess, wouldn't it be an extremely cost-effective deal for you?"

The county lord of Lingji trembled with fear, but he didn't dare to call for help, so he opened his mouth in horror and bit Gui Shi'er's shoulder fiercely, and then realized that he was wearing armor, how could he bite it? In an instant, I felt a cold lower body, and the trousers were torn off, and then a big hand touched the soft and plump buttocks through the thin obscene pants, and kneaded them hard.

"Ah......h
