Chapter 184

She became agitated, just like when she was arguing with Gu Yuyan that day, Chu Mu's body gradually became stiff because of Chu Li's transformation into a little hedgehog, but he didn't have an attack, he just stroked her He hugged her tightly, and coaxed her with a soft smile: "Prince Qingyi's mansion has also been abolished, it's just that there will be no prince in the future. Pay attention to the baby in your belly, don't get excited, huh?"

"Brother Seven is different from you, Chu Mu! He will have nothing if he loses the throne! There are many people who will climb on top of him to bully him, Queen Fu, Princess Concubine... many, many people! I..." Qiao Ye was really in a hurry, Chu Mu's heart twitched, and he interrupted her: "Then, what do you want?" The voice was gentle and cold, and he was afraid that something would come out of her mouth, so he kept pretending His composure is broken.

"I..." Qiao Ye withdrew from Chu Mu's embrace, and looked up at him: "I want Brother Qi to be the emperor. In this case, I can go and beg him to let Xiangxin and Chu Xiao go, and they will not be in danger. If Seventh Brother can't become the emperor, he will have nothing. Chu Mu, you...help him."

The smile on Chu Mu's lips froze. She seldom begged him. She always said that she could solve things by herself, saying that she didn't want him to worry. Now, she begged him for Chu Li... She said that person could not get the throne There will be nothing, so what about Chu Mu?He had already promised her that he would never be an enemy of Chu Li again, and would not avenge his personal revenge publicly, so what else could he do?Help Chu Li?

Ye'er, do you know the price of helping Chu Li?
"Do you really want him to be the emperor?" Still unable to resist her dark eyes, Chu Mu's amber eyes looked directly into hers and asked softly.

Qiao Ye looked into his eyes without avoiding, and frowned slightly: "I just... just don't want to see him have nothing, I don't want... I don't want to owe him..."

Chu Mu supported her shoulders, pondered for a while, smiled, raised his hand, gently stroked her cheek with his fingertips, and pressed his face very close: "Then, promise me, when he becomes the emperor, don't let him go to bed again." Go see him, huh?" His voice was soft, almost coaxing.

Qiao Ye looked into his eyes, deep amber, like beautiful gems, she bit her lower lip lightly, nodded: "I promise you, I won't see him again."

Chu Mu raised the corners of his lips, unable to tell whether it was relief or sadness, he lowered his head and kissed her lips, and it stopped as soon as he touched it, just like the softest feather brushing by, then he stood up from the bed, turned around and left.

His sleeve was pulled, he turned his head, and Qiao Ye sat on the bed, looking up at him: "Then, will Xiangxin and Yue'er be safe?"

Chu Mu held her hand: "Chu Xiao will protect them. I will not hurt them either."

Qiao Ye smiled: "Will it be difficult? Will you be in danger?"

Chu Mu's eyes flickered slightly, but it was fleeting, and he still smiled brightly: "It's not difficult, don't worry."

"Oh." Qiao Ye nodded. Since she married him, she has worried less and less. She is really like a spoiled child. No matter how difficult the problem is, he can always solve it. Qiao Ye said Said: "Then, can I go with you?"

"No need." Chu Mu turned around and hugged her, and patted her on the head with his big hand: "Now that you have a baby, don't be naughty anymore, you know? Stay at home obediently, I will be back soon, don't run around, Um?"

Hearing that he was full of confidence, Qiao Ye felt relieved, hugged his neck and kissed his face: "Well, I will wait for you to come back with the baby..."

Chu Mu closed his eyes and said softly, "Okay, wait for me to come back with the baby."

Maybe it's because the string in my mind is too tight, when there is a little bit of wind and grass, all the grass and trees will stand up.

The news of Emperor Chu's illness reached Fengzao Palace, and Fu Wanying felt uneasy, but Emperor Chu didn't let anyone go to Zichen Palace to bother her.After hearing the secret report from the eunuch, saying that it was Chu Li who came out of the Zichen Palace and had already left the palace, Fu Wanying became more and more nervous, and ordered people to call Chu Xiao and Gu Yanyan over to discuss what to do It's good to do it.

Gu Yanyan was also very irritable, and Gu's family came to report that Gu Xiang was seriously ill, and now she became even more impatient after hearing Fu Wanying's nagging, because she was restricted everywhere because she married into the East Palace, so she couldn't go out often Gong went to visit Gu Xiang.

"How many private soldiers can the Fu family have? If it is the Emperor Chu's will to allow Chu Li to obtain a clear order, what use are these useless private soldiers?" Gu Yan snorted.

"Then think of a way! Could it be that General Gu's army has been a bubble all his life? You are his granddaughter, so can't you mobilize troops?" Fu Wanying was also angry.

"Three years ago, there were originally, but now that I have not been in the army for a long time, they cannot guarantee that they will have two hearts." Gu Yuyan's phoenix eyes were full of hatred, all of this was caused by Chu Li!
"But mother, please be less noisy. This will only make us die faster. As long as my grandfather is alive, his disciples will not ignore our family. There is no way to buy everyone's hearts so quickly." Gu Yanyan looked at Fu Wanying, her words were quite provocative.

Although Fu Wanying felt resentful in her heart, they were in the same boat at this juncture, and if they did not cooperate, they could only sink. She knew this truth, so she endured it again and again.

Chu Xiao was thinking about Yue'er in his heart. When he just came here, Yue'er seemed to be sick and kept crying. He invited the imperial doctor to see him, but he didn't know what was going on now, and she was so anxious that she shed tears.

Chu Xiao has a very strong mother. From childhood to adulthood, she has controlled almost all of his life, handling everything with one hand, no matter how big or small.Later, he had a very powerful concubine, even more powerful than his mother, and the strength of the two was comparable.In this world, if there is one thing he can grasp, it is Xinxin and Yueer. Therefore, he loves them and cherishes them as much as he loves his own. No one or anything can replace them.

For him, the throne has always been just a subconscious result of sitting on the crown prince's position for too long while his mother talked about it every day.So with the two of them on the business, he didn't have to worry about it.No matter what kind of plans Gu Yuyan has, they are living and dying together now, and he believes that she will not play tricks.

The two women were still in the cold war, Caiyuan suddenly entered the palace door in a panic, and said to Gu Yuyan: "Miss, it's not good, the old man... passed away."

"What did you say?!" Gu Yanyan stood up suddenly, her phoenix eyes were wide open, she couldn't believe it at all.

"This morning, the old man is critically ill and just passed away..." Cai Yuan repeated.

Fu Wanying's heart sank to the bottom of the water: "This time... I really lost, I lost to that snake boy..." She supported her head and closed her eyes weakly.

Gu Yanyan was completely stunned. The grandfather who loved her the most in the world passed away. When she was dying, she must have not forgiven her decision. She was trapped in this East Palace, and she didn't even have the chance to see him for the last time. , with tears in his eyes, the phoenix stayed where he was and didn't move.

Neither of them spoke, Fengzao Palace was very quiet for a while, Chu Xiao said: "Mother's queen..." He wanted to say that maybe Chu Li would not kill them all when he became emperor, but he hadn't spoken yet. Then I saw a group of people walking into Fengzao Palace, headed by the Chief Eunuch, the personal eunuch of Emperor Chu.

Fu Wanying panicked, she sat up from her chair, and stepped back again and again. The eunuch stepped into the threshold and said, "The Empress, Your Highness the Crown Prince, and the Crown Princess, accept the order."

Fu Wanying's legs softened and she knelt down.

Gu Yanyan and Chu Xiao also knelt down.

"Following the fate of the heavens, the Emperor Chu said: Our Great Chu Kingdom has followed the ancestral system since ancient times, and abides by the order of elders and younger generations. Therefore, after my death, the crown prince Chu Xiao was appointed as the successor of the Emperor Chu. And to prevent the disaster of the prince seizing the throne and the danger of the prime minister's exclusive power , after the prince succeeds to the throne, the prince and Xiangguo can be abolished..." The eunuch had already finished reading, but the three of them stayed there without any reaction.

"His Royal Highness, accept the order." The eunuch reminded.

Chu Xiao suddenly raised his head, received the imperial decree, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh: "My son accepts the decree, thank you father and emperor." It is said that the king's heart is unpredictable, and it is true, everyone thinks his prince When his position was lost, an imperial decree told him that his position had never changed, it was really like a prank.Suddenly remembered something, Chu Xiao got up and asked, "Father, he..."

The eunuch bowed and was extremely respectful: "Go back to His Royal Highness, Your Majesty has... passed away."

"When?!" Fu Wanying finally woke up and asked in a trembling voice.

The old eunuch thought for a while and said, "This morning."

Fu Wanying finally breathed a sigh of relief, the throne is still theirs after all, Chu Li has nothing, even the prince can't do it.Now it is the order of the Emperor Chu, abolishing the prince is the best excuse to kill Chu Li!Whether there is Gu Xiang or not is completely unimportant.

Frowning suddenly, Fu Wanying said: "Xiao Er, since this world is yours, go and get the soldier talisman now, with it, the entire Ming army will obey your orders! By the way, there is also the Ming order... ...Regardless of whether it exists or not, go find it... When you have the military power in your hands, call the princes and ministers to welcome the new monarch, and then go to your majesty's funeral. Only in this way can your majesty rest in peace." She is now Having got rid of the fear and had a legitimate will, she no longer needs to be afraid of anything, and she no longer pays attention to Gu Yuyan. Gu Xiang is dead, and Gu Yuyan has lost its use value.

"Yes, Queen Mother." Chu Xiao agreed, and stepped out of Fengzao Palace.

Gu Yuyan was so heartbroken with hatred, their mother and son were happy, but they ruined the Gu family's family.Chu Li, are you sad and desperate now?In the end, it’s not all about nothing!
When Chu Xiao went to Zichen Palace, he also met the mysterious elder of the ancestral hall. The elder gave him the soldier talisman of the right wing of the Ming army.He handed him another piece of jade pendant, which was a piece of suet white jade, the size of the palm of your hand. If you looked carefully, you would find that there were uneven patterns on it, and the word "dark night" could be vaguely seen.
