Chapter XVIII: Brothers
"You have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death!"
Shang Yunying said categorically, there is no doubt. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Years of hatred, all the time, heart and mind, have been carved into the bones, which can be dissolved once you hear that the enemy is dead.
Although she is not so bad that even if the enemy dies, she will break the coffin and whip the corpse, but it is her attitude to determine whether the enemy is really dead, to see people in life and corpses in death.
Seeing that Shang Yunying was so resolute, Gu Shaohua no longer persuaded him, but he was not without achievements, and finally made her give up the idea of forcibly breaking into the palace, and prepared to investigate from the periphery to determine the life and death of the Emperor of Qi first.
Although Shang Yunying is cold and difficult to get close to, she retains a naivety in her character, she doesn't know whether she is grateful, or she really trusts the eldest prince, or thinks that he is not a threat to herself, she answers many things that Gu Shaohua asks.
Therefore, Gu Shaohua knew that she was practicing in Shuiyue Nunnery, and her exercises were biased towards the ice attribute, and her cultivation had reached the condensation realm, and she was a real cultivator.
The cultivator of the Condensate Realm is the strongest person that Gu Shaohua currently knows, no wonder she dared to break into Kyoto single-handedly, and she also had to enter the palace, it turned out that she was not blinded by hatred, she was stupid, but she was confident.
Following Shang Yunying, Gu Shaohua was really eye-opening, the cultivator is worthy of being a fairy in the eyes of mortals, with all kinds of incredible magical powers, passing through the wall in a distance, resisting the water into waves, and flying into the sky incognito, all of which are trivial.
Kyoto has indeed undergone great changes, and it can be seen from the atmosphere in the city, a tense atmosphere has quietly opened, not only the guards in important places, but also the number of officers patrolling the streets.
The palace, the official office and the residences of important ministers have a lot more guards than before, and many important ministers go to the court to work, and there are guards to follow.
In some lively streets, such as snack streets, commercial streets, and vegetable markets, the density and frequency of official patrols are more than before, and the thugs and petty thieves on the streets have been swept away.
Even, Shang Yunying also infiltrated the forbidden army barracks, and saw that there was a tense atmosphere in the barracks, and the army's drills became more frequent, looking like the future scene of the war.
――――――――――
The palace is in the palace, the main hall of the emperor, the place where the emperor works, should be solemn, but now, there is a coffin in the hall.
The coffin is made, the grand atmosphere, the color is dark purple, the dragon is carved and the phoenix is carved on it, and it is extremely noble and delicate.
In front of the coffin, a man bowed his body, kneeling on the ground, babbling in his mouth, crying twice from time to time, but it was a dry howl, thunder and no rain, and there was no sad expression on his face.
"Old fellow, people say that you liked me the most when you were alive and didn't like the boss, and you left me in Kyoto and put the boss on the frontier, which seems to confirm this. ”
"The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty all thought that after you returned to heaven, they would pass the throne to me, and even once, I thought so. However, the edict of succession has shattered all my illusions, and you want to pass on the throne to the boss, why?
"Your love for me, all your kindness to me, is fake, all fake, maybe the prime minister is right, you just use me, use me to contain the boss. ”
"The boss is good, he can be civil and martial, he has both a good name and military exploits, you want him to inherit the throne, I understand. But why did you suppress him again, give me hope, and in the end, cruelly make me despair. ”
"I know that you have taken a fancy to the boss, but you are afraid that he will threaten your position, so you raised me to fight with him, and used me to contain him, you simply treat me as a complete pawn. ”
"I'm incompetent, I'm not capable, I'm not as good as the boss, you can pinch me at will, you want to rub the round, you want to smash the flat, you are too confident. ”
"What do you mean by leaving an edict and passing on the throne to the boss, do you really expect me to accept the edict, no, this is absolutely impossible. ”
"Old fellow, I want you to watch, the throne will eventually fall into my hands, and in a few days, I will be able to ascend the throne as emperor. As for the boss you value, I won't let him go, if he doesn't come back, I'll make him look good. ”
......
The second prince is alone to guard the spirit, maybe to vent, maybe he is extremely bored, or the villain is ambitious, muttering some words in his mouth, if it is spread, it will definitely cause an uproar in the government and the opposition.
After venting, the second prince stopped his mouth and fell into a dazed stupor, kneeling there motionless, as if asleep.
A gentle sound of footsteps came, but in the quiet hall, it was extremely clear, waking up the second prince who was wandering in the world, and a touch of anger appeared on his face.
The second prince reprimanded: "Zhao enough, what are you doing, didn't I say it, during my wake-up for my father, if there is nothing important, don't come to disturb me." ”
It was a young eunuch who came in, and when he saw that the second prince was angry, he only leaned down slightly, showing respect, but there was not much fear.
The old eunuch Zhao Enough said without changing his face: "Your Highness, something big has indeed happened, this afternoon, the eldest prince has entered the city." ”
"What? The Boss is in town!"
The second prince was startled and stood up instantly.
The eldest prince and the second prince are half-brothers, the two are competitors to each other, and they have always been at odds with each other.
Compared with the open-mindedness of the eldest prince, the second prince is more narrow-minded, and regards the eldest prince as a mortal enemy, especially at this critical moment, he pays more attention to the news of the eldest prince.
"What's going on, didn't I tell him not to come back, and gave you the power to act as you please, how can you still let him enter the city. ”
The second prince roared.
"Are you all eating dry?"
If it was said that the second prince was only a little unhappy when he was disturbed and alarmed at the beginning, when he heard that the eldest prince had successfully returned to Kyoto, he was simply furious, and his head was about to explode.
In the furious storm of the second prince, Zhao Enough became a reef-like mainstay, no matter how violent the wind and waves were, I remained unmoved.
Zhao Gou has followed the second prince for many years, is his confidant, has the trust of the second prince, and knows his temperament very well, so he can be calm and calm under anger.
He explained reasonably: "Your Highness, it is true that we have not done a good job in this matter. However, in order to return safely, the eldest prince also made all preparations. First of all, he found a stand-in, the person sent out by the old slave, and the first person to kill was that stand-in. And the real eldest prince, under the escort of Guan Yiji, went straight to Wangjing Town, only to be intercepted by Shi Zhongchu. With the ability of Chu in the stone, he couldn't help but get a plan, but let him drag it out, and the eldest prince took this opportunity to rush to the gate of Kyoto. ”
"The old slave also has arrangements at the gate of the city, he has already stopped the eldest prince, and injured him, killing him only in an instant, I don't want to, someone will come to the rescue, let him escape again. According to the old slave's estimate, at this time, the eldest prince should have sneaked into the city, waiting for an opportunity. ”
