I was Idle and Cool Chapter 205: Zhaoyang Temple
Gu Juefei is crazy.
Or maybe he was dreaming.
At the moment of witnessing this scene, Fang Shaoxing had two such thoughts in his mind. Because even if he was as daring as him, he still couldn't believe what he saw just now, and he couldn't believe what he heard.
All the guards outside the Taiji Hall were even more terrified.
They saw Gu Juefei lift the sword, and they did see the quarrel between him and the emperor, but the person in front of them was none other than Gu Juefei, a great scholar in the dynasty!
For the country and the people, it can be said that he is the most unlikely person in the world to rebel!
But now, even under the watchful eyes of all the people, this most unlikely person actually raised a butcher's knife to the emperor!
It's such a short moment!
The emperor is gone, the country has no monarch, and the people have no ruler!
All the changes happened too fast, too unexpected, and even people couldn't react at all...
Gu Juefei was the only one who was calm from beginning to end.
He straightened his back indifferently, held the sword, moved his feet, walked down the high steps, and handed the blood-stained sword to Fang Shaoxing.
Then, he bent down and picked up the imperial decree that fell to the ground and wiped his hands.
The imperial edict of Ming Huang.
Slim fingers.
The blood that splattered on his fingers was wiped clean by him, bit by bit, gracefully and calmly, but this imperial edict was dyed a dazzling red.
"Go to invite Ji Heng to write an obituary to the world, and say that the emperor died of a sudden illness. Immediately block the palace gate, forbid people from entering and leaving. If anyone dares to violate the order, they will kill first and then play." Gu Juefei raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Shaoxing. , "As for the strength of the troops in the capital, their movements will be closely monitored, and anyone who enters the capital or knocks on the city gate in the name of 'King of Qin' will be killed."
I'm afraid Xiao Che didn't understand until he died, why things took a turn for the worse.
He even just squeezed the imperial edict into his palm, and before he could be proud for a moment, his head was chopped off with a sword, without the slightest respect and dignity of being an emperor.
Because the emperor is high above, but without the civil and military officials who support him behind him, he is just a lonely man who is helpless and slaughtered by others.
In the end-
A mortal body, flesh and blood, An dare to call himself the "Son of Heaven"?
When he said this, he just stopped in his footsteps, stood beside Xiao Che's head that rolled on the golden bricks of the Golden Palace, glanced at it, smiled, and said indifferently: "Put this head Pick it up, send it to Zhuozhou, and give it to Xue Kuang."
“…”
Fang Shaoxing has taken the cyan steel sword in his hand, the blood hanging on the blade flows down the sword's edge, and a few bright red spots are lit on the icy ground. He stares at Gu Juefei, and it seems that he finally treats him like this. Personally feel curious.
After all, it's amazing to say that you change your face.
For a moment, such a thought suddenly crossed his mind: he said that he wanted to rebel in a high-sounding manner, but he killed Xiao Che, whether it was a more well-planned rebellion, or a hatred that was hard to calm down. Does the old lady take revenge more?
Fang Shaoxing was silent for a moment, then glanced at the head on the ground, and then said: "Not long after you entered the palace, the concubine Xianxian also brought Lu Jinxi into the palace, and now it should be in the Zhaoyang Palace." /
*
"Madam doesn't seem to like me, nor does I like the fact that I am forcibly invited you to the palace."
In Zhaoyang Hall, Wei Yi stood beside the incense burner and fiddled gently.
Her voice no longer had the trembling and hurriedness she had when arguing with Xiao Che in the Qianqing Palace yesterday.
Lu Jinxi just stood behind her, watching her fiddling with the incense ash little by little, but in her heart, she had already guessed the plan of this virtuous concubine who suddenly forced her to come to the palace. Eight.
As soon as Gu Juefei left today, someone came to the palace.
At first, she thought that something big had happened, but she didn't expect that it was someone sent by Wei Yi.
The other party's attitude is quite tough, and even pressured by the emperor's order. Lu Jinxi didn't want to go, but after thinking about it, Gu Juefei was in the palace, and there was another Fang Shaoxing who was guarding the capital, so there was nothing wrong, so he came.
This is her first visit to Wei Yi's bedroom.
Zhaoyang Hall, the closest hall in the entire harem to the Qianqing Palace, where the emperor lived, can be said to be a symbol of status and favor. Even the Queen's Kunning Palace pales in comparison to it.
In the time of the late emperor, this was the palace of the late queen Wei Qiang.
Carved fences and painted screens are full of wealth.
The decoration of this palace is worthy of Weiyi's current favor and status.
Hearing Wei Yi's words at this moment, Lu Jinxi didn't show any clues on his face, or it could be said that his heart was so calm that it was hard to make waves, and there was only a random table on the other side of the table. Glancing at the dagger with its jewel-encrusted handle, he narrowed his gaze veiledly, and said with a faint smile: "The noble concubine is a woman of gold, and she has a dragon heir, so it's easy to see the courtier's wife. You have your life. , the courtiers and wives would not dare to resign.”
"You also said it was 'don't dare'."
Wei Yi's fingers fiddling with the incense ash stopped for a while, and the incense stick lightly leaned against the Zijin Boshan stove with a crisp sound, and then laughed again.
"But you don't have to worry. Although this palace doesn't like you, it's just that you are in the palace today, but it's just a lack of words, so I'll ask you to relieve my boredom, and I won't do anything to you."
For no reason, who would call him a thorn in his side?
Lu Jinxi didn't believe her words.
It's just that since everyone has said so, she won't slap it ignorantly, she just nodded with a smile: "You worry too much, it's an honor to be able to talk to you, as long as you don't dislike me or not. Just talk at the conference."
Can't speak?
Isn't this very talkative?
Wei Yi sneered in her heart, and just wanted to turn around and say something to Lu Jinxi. Unexpectedly, when I looked up, I saw the palace maid outside the door hurriedly running in!
"Niangniang, Niangniang, it's not good!" The palace maid was so frightened that she ran into the palace all the way, knelt on the ground, pointed to the outside of the palace gate and said, "The guards in the palace are all surrounded! There are changes, no one can enter at will!"
"What?"
As soon as Wei Yi's face changed, she realized almost instantly that something must have happened. She is never someone who sits and waits for death. She just threw the incense stick in her hand, raised the corner of her luxurious skirt, and walked out!
The palace maids didn't know what she was going to do, and they all panicked and tried to stop her.
Unexpectedly, Wei Yi's footsteps were so fast that he couldn't catch up.
It didn't take a while, he had already walked to the gate of the palace, took a step outside, and saw two columns of guards standing side by side outside the gate of the palace, holding swords and halberds, with a solemn expression!
As soon as they saw her coming out, the two closest people directly crossed their swords in the front block, with no expression on their ferocious faces, only said solemnly: "Master Fang has an order, the palace is forbidden to speak, no one can Don't move around at will. Niangniang, swords have no eyes, please return to the palace, don't let the villains and others embarrass them."
"Master Fang, Shaoxing Fang? What is he!"
Wei Yi never thought that he would be blocked, let alone hear Fang Shaoxing's name from these people, his face was extremely ugly.
"What qualifications does he have to give orders? Ben Gong wants to meet the emperor, please get out of here!"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to see you again."
A quiet voice suddenly sounded from the palace road on the side, the warmth of the past has been covered with an unfamiliar frost, and it fell in Wei Yi's ears, with an unprecedented coldness!
Gu Juefei brought people over from the other side. The blood on his filial attire was not dry yet. While walking, the cool breeze and the cold mist lifted the hem of his clothes, which was shocking!
The moment she saw him, Wei Yi was shocked.
There is no need for him to say more, she has already constructed the whole picture of the matter in her mind, and she only felt a shiver in the top of her heart.
The sudden fear caused her to step back when Gu Juefei approached.
She thought about how Gu Chengqian's death would bring about changes in the court situation and what changes would happen to Gu Juefei. But she never thought that it would be so decisive, so tragic, so crazy and desperate!
"No, no..."
Wei Yi's footsteps are already full of mess, as if she can't believe what she guessed, and she can't believe that the person who forced me to the front of her palace today was the elegant and noble son of the old days!
She retreated into Zhaoyang Hall as if she was about to grab the life-saving straw.
"Retire for this palace! Don't come here!"
At the moment of retreating, Lu Jinxi's figure was already reflected in his eyes, and Wei Yi's eyes flashed ruthlessly, almost as soon as Lu Jinxi looked at her, she had already caught her!
At the same time, reach out and grab the case behind the back——
But she never imagined that this catch would be empty!
The case where a dagger was originally placed, I don't know when, is already empty, and there is nothing.
Wei Yi's expression was momentary.
But then, that strange and ominous premonition rose from the depths of her heart, causing her to let go, back away, and look at Lu Jinxi.
Lu Jinxi stood on the spot, neither panic nor confusion on her face, but with a somewhat complicated smile on her face, revealing the dagger she had hidden in her sleeve while Wei Yi had just left the palace gate in a state of confusion When he came out, he sighed softly, "Miss, are you looking for it?"
“…”
The gemstones inlaid on the dagger were all tributes from Fanbang, and the workmanship was also exquisite, but at this moment in Lu Jinxi's hands, it made her feel so desperate.
Wei Yi took three steps back, and there was no trace of blood on his face.
The guards blocked the gate of the palace, and the maids burst into tears before being forcibly pulled out. In the blink of an eye, the Zhaoyang Hall, which used to be full of laughter and laughter, was desolate and silent.
Gu Juefei's footsteps became softer.
He walked in from the door with his hands behind his back, and only took Lu Jinxi's hand and let her stand behind him, and then slowly said: "The emperor died of a sudden illness this morning, and the noble concubine is his favorite. People. Today, Wei Chen personally went to Zhaoyang Hall to invite the empress to be the emperor—to be buried!"
