Chapter 264 Bad news

The pouring rain poured down from the sky, and lightning appeared in the distant sky, which completely woke up Gao Changle who was lying on the bed.

The rumbling thunder was earth-shattering.

Gao Changle only felt that his heart was very stuffy, as if it was blocked by something, and he couldn't sleep.

Simply, Gao Changle got up slowly, and went to the hollow carved window tallow, watching the splashing rainwater falling from the eaves, hitting the marble steps and bursting into flowers.

Pei Yuan's figure quietly appeared in Gao Changle's line of sight, "Princess, Qianyuan Palace suddenly sent someone to say that the emperor called you over."

"Father?"

"Father called me over at this time?" Hearing Pei Yuan's words, Gao Changle was slightly taken aback, and Liu Mei frowned slightly.

She had only met Emperor Jiayuan not long ago, so it was important for Emperor Jiayuan to find her at this time.

But since Qianyuan Palace sent someone to deliver the letter, Gao Changle naturally did not dare to slack off.

Crested Ibis and Zhu Cui were also called out, "Princess, let the servants help you wash and change your clothes."

"it is good."

Gao Changle nodded.

The palace lanterns were lit again in the silent imperial city, and the light from the candles illuminated the entire night. As the ministers outside Yanjing City were invited into the Qianyuan Palace one after another, the hearts of everyone in the harem became more and more uneasy. up.

Accompanied by Zhucui and Peiyuan, Gao Changle watched from afar the figures entering the Qianyuan Palace successively, and felt a thump in his heart, very uneasy.

"what happened?"

"Why did the emperor call those ministers into the palace overnight?"

During the day, Emperor Jiayuan's health gradually improved.

Even when Gao Changle said goodbye to Emperor Jiayuan, he also looked at Emperor Jiayuan's strong body.

Gao Changle couldn't have imagined that it took only a few hours to make Emperor Jiayuan's physical condition worse, and it was even more unexpected that Emperor Jiayuan gathered everyone in front of him in such a hurry. In order to avoid future disputes over the imperial power, Gao Changle will be in a difficult position.

"Hurry up."

Although he couldn't guess what Emperor Jiayuan was going to do, Gao Changle still subconsciously urged the two people behind him, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

The rain soaked the embroidered shoes embroidered with golden thread begonias, but now Gao Changle can't care so much.

In the main hall, Emperor Jiayuan still seemed to be in good spirits. When the officials entered the palace overnight and came before Emperor Jiayuan, they could still see that Emperor Jiayuan had a slight smile on his face, and he was still the emperor who planned strategies.

Emperor Jiayuan had no choice but to hold on.

If he was crouching on the bed in a critically ill state, not to mention that he wanted to announce the decree, the strength of his speech would be greatly reduced, and it would even give those people with ulterior motives a chance to explode.

He Qing stood aside, with a sad face but did not dare to show it.

Cao Jingkun was even more worried.

After about an hour, Qianyuan Palace gathered a lot of people. Those ministers entered the palace in the rain, and they were really embarrassed, but looking at Emperor Jiayuan's face, it was beginning to be difficult to understand what was in Emperor Jiayuan's heart. planned.

I only heard a little eunuch in the crowd shouting in a shrill voice that the princess is coming, and then everyone's eyes were on Gao Changle behind him, and they even unconsciously made a way out for Gao Changle come out.

"Father."

Gao Changle was puzzled, looked at Emperor Jiayuan with a frown, and slowly came to the front of Jiayuan under the watchful eyes of many ministers.

Emperor Jiayuan breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand.

He Qing held the imperial decree that Emperor Jiayuan had made in advance and slowly cleared his throat in front of many ministers.

"By God's fortune, the emperor's personal edict, Prince Yin Mingzhe of the Jiang Kingdom has a good way to treat acne, and offered a good strategy. He specially bestowed the fourth princess Gao Changhuan to marry the Prince of Jiang Kingdom far away, and became the princess of the East Palace Prince. He also reduced the three-year court service of Jiang Kingdom to show the mighty grace of the emperor. "

Gao Changle's eyes flickered slightly, and he was not surprised by this imperial decree.

This was something that was discussed in advance.

It's just that her father originally said that he would wait until tomorrow to make an announcement. I don't know why he rushed to make an announcement on this rainy night. As for the other courtiers...

Emperor Jiayuan's decision was unexpected and reasonable.

Right now, everyone in the Great Wei Dynasty is praising Prince Jiang for his kindness in the court and down to the common people. He has helped the Great Wei overcome difficulties. Emperor Jiayuan rewarded Prince Jiang and reduced or exempted him from court services. This is what should be done. , can be betrothed to the princess and kiss...

At that time, Prince Jiang's red mouth and white teeth said that he wanted to marry the eldest princess, but now he has changed to the fourth princess. I'm afraid that Prince Jiang would not be willing!

They have done Jiang Guo such a big favor, and want to ask to marry one of your princesses to show Jiang Guo's friendship to Wei, it's okay if Wei doesn't want to, and he also stuffed another princess for the prince of Jiang Guo, Isn't this an obvious bully, and an excuse for the people of the world?

Knowing the worries in the minds of many ministers, He Qing told the courtiers who had prepared remarks, "Masters may not know, this is a misunderstanding. It turns out that what Prince Yin saw before was the fourth princess. The person she is enamored of and wants to marry is also the fourth princess, and by accident, she recognized the eldest princess, which caused the previous misunderstanding."

"In the afternoon, the emperor had summoned the fourth princess and Prince Yin to Qianyuan Palace, and asked the two of them what they wanted. Both Prince Yin and the fourth princess were willing to have this marriage. The emperor wanted the beauty of adults at that time. The two people agreed, and now that the imperial decree has been issued, it is to show the way in front of the ministers. In addition, the Taiwei Lu Mingyuan is selected as the marriage envoy to escort the fourth princess to Jiang Guo, waiting for the end of the marriage. Let's go back to Beijing again!"

Since it was a matter of Yin Mingzhe and Gao Changhuan's sympathy, no one in the court had any objections when the marriage was bestowed.

Everyone nodded and bowed their hands towards Emperor Jiayuan, "Your Majesty is wise!"

"The emperor's grace is mighty."

Lu Mingyuan, who was named, stepped forward slowly, and knelt down in front of Emperor Jiayuan, "I accept the order, thank you for the emperor's kindness, I will fulfill my mission, and I will definitely escort the fourth princess to Jianguo. "

He Qing looked at Emperor Jiayuan's gesture and nodded, stepped forward and delivered the memorial to Lu Mingyuan, then turned around and picked up the second imperial edict.

"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor said that it is an eventful autumn and the country is in turmoil. I am concerned about the safety of the people in the world. I am worried and worried. The country cannot be without a king for a day, let alone a prince. After many considerations and investigations, I am determined to canonize..."

A word that He Qing didn't say was so urgent to the ears of all the ministers present, and it made the hearts of these ministers tense, and they swallowed nervously.

No wonder all these ministers were summoned into the palace overnight, even in the heavy rain, they couldn't stop Emperor Jiayuan's intentions. It turned out that it was for the appointment of the crown prince!
Just say it!
If it was purely for the prince of a subordinate small country to give a marriage, Emperor Jiayuan would never have to mobilize the crowd like this. Now, the complaints of these ministers who were summoned in the rain in the middle of the night disappeared in no time. The establishment of a prince is a major event, which is related to who will be the master of the Great Wei Dynasty in the future, and it is even more related to the future prosperity and wealth of these ministers present.

However, before He Qing finished speaking, a figure staggered in from outside the Qianyuan Palace. Yuanhao's blood was mixed with rain, and the situation in Yuanhao's eyes was even more sad, "Your Majesty... "

"The governor was assassinated outside the imperial city and was besieged and killed!"

So many knives fell on Li Shao's body, and there were so many arrows, Yuan Hao just watched Li Shao's miserable death, but he was so weak that he couldn't help him.

That kind of annoyance and remorse deeply filled Yuan Hao's heart, which made Yuan Hao fall into extremely self-blame.

Yuan Hao's eyes were scarlet, "I also ask the emperor to issue an order to send people to kill those assassins immediately and avenge Governor Li!!"

Such a large number of people should not have time to evacuate. They killed the Governor so cruelly, even if they died, they would drag them down to hell together.

Yuan Hao stumbled into the door, and after reporting the news, he realized that the Qianyuan Palace was extraordinary. Those ministers, even Emperor Jiayuan and Gao Changle, were shocked when they heard Yuan Hao's words.

Gao Changle stood on the spot, only feeling his head buzzing, after a while he realized that his face was almost pale and he rushed to Yuan Hao's side, holding Yuan Hao's arm tightly.

"What did you say?"

"What did you say about Li Shao?"

Yuan Hao looked at Gao Changle with guilty eyes, and lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Gao Changle, "I'm sorry princess!"

"It's because the subordinates are useless and failed to protect the governor, the governor... was assassinated..."

A flash of lightning suddenly came from outside the dormitory, instantly brightening the sight, and the heavy rain outside the door seemed to be even heavier!

Gao Changle got up suddenly, as if he had lost his reason and reaction, just relying on the movements of his body, he ran out of the dormitory with a pale face.

Emperor Jiayuan's face changed drastically, and he sat up from the bed quickly, "Quick, stop the eldest princess!"

Oops.

Li Shao's murder was something that no one expected. Seeing Gao Changle's agitated appearance, Emperor Jiayuan couldn't help but thump in his heart, fearing that this feeling could not be concealed!
As a father, Gao Changle's personality is very clear.

Since she was a child, she has valued feelings more than power and favor, so because of Xie Xianyin's death, she has a grudge against Emperor Jiayuan, so that the relationship between father and daughter has been alienated for so many years, and now Emperor Jiayuan is in a coma He overheard Gao Changle pouring out his heart by accident, and learned that his daughter actually cared about Li Shao.

Emperor Jiayuan, who had experienced life and death hanging by a thread, didn't have the thought of wanting to fulfill Gao Changle in his heart.

After living this life, what could be happier than staying with the one you love for the rest of your life?

It's a pity that the country is in turmoil and troubled times. Their Gao family has gone through several dynasties and generations, but they have no sons who can support the great Wei's country when they come to him. Only such a daughter is full of heroism and courage.

Emperor Jiayuan could only be cruel once.

original.

He wanted to use the presence of many ministers to check and balance Gao Changle's agreement to his request, and to do it in accordance with the imperial decree. In this way, even if Gao Changle was in a dilemma, he still had to care about the relationship between father and daughter, and the imperial decree would be The wood is in the boat, and there is no discernment.

But now, before the imperial decree can be read out, there is the sad news of Li Shao. Even if Gao Changle will inherit his own imperial decree in the future, the princess of the great Wei Dynasty may go crazy because of the death of a Dongchang eunuch This handle of hers will become evidence that everyone in the court will oppose her in the future.

Everything that Emperor Jiayuan did for Gao Changle, all the roads he paved, were all in vain!
Hearing the words, the palace servants in the bedroom immediately stepped forward to stop Gao Changle's footsteps, Pei Yuan and Zhucui felt uneasy seeing this, and rushed forward to persuade Gao Changle.

Gao Changle's mood is broken now.

This goes far beyond the attitude and relationship a princess should have with her ministers.

Yes.

Everyone in the world knows that Li Shao came from Gao Changle's Changle Palace. The two were masters and servants earlier. Even if the relationship between Gao Changle and Li Shao is a little closer than others, no one would think about it, let alone hold on to it. I don't let go of this point, but now... Gao Changle's face is pale, but he is biting his lip, and there is no cry, but tears fall from the eye sockets like broken beads, more like hair Crazy, regardless of the pouring rain outside, rushed towards the outside...

This is a big anomaly!
In the blink of an eye, the ministers who witnessed Gao Changle's gaffe seemed to have noticed the tricks between Li Shao and Gao Changle, and even smelled something unusual.

Could it be...

Could it be that the Eldest Princess and the powerful Governor of the East Factory are not just a simple relationship as a close friend, but...there is a deformed love between the two people that cannot be tolerated by the world...

"Princess, princess."

"You can't do that."

"You can't do this, there are so many ministers watching you!"

"Your Majesty is also very sad about Governor Li's death, but please calm down. Your Majesty will take revenge on Governor Li. You can't do anything now, and you can't do anything!" Zhu Cui lowered her voice in Gao Changle The hasty opening in his ear almost directly woke up Gao Changle and told Gao Changle not to lose his composure any longer!

At this moment, Gao Changle's emotions seemed to erupt completely, and there was a cry in his voice, "Let me go!"

"You let me go!"

"Let me go find him!"

"I can't believe he died like this!"

"I do not believe!"

Obviously there is still a person talking and laughing during the day, but at night they say that there is no one, they were assassinated, where is the East Factory, and what is the status of the Governor of the East Factory!
How could it be possible to die! ?

How could it be so simple to die.

Gao Changle didn't believe it.

If she hadn't seen Li Shao's body with her own eyes, she would never have believed it!
Li Shao must still be alive, he must still be alive and hiding somewhere waiting for Gao Changle to rescue him!
