Chapter 291 Secret (two more)

"At that time, because the eldest princess flatly denied that she had taken the "Taizu Hand Letters", the late emperor simply ruthless, taking advantage of the day when Emperor Taizu's coffin entered the imperial mausoleum, he caught the eldest princess by surprise and ordered Jin Yiwei to surround the mausoleum and the imperial mausoleum. The Jingshan Palace, intends to temporarily put the eldest princess under house arrest, and search the princess's palace to find the handwritten letter."

"No, the Black Eagle Army has appeared!"

Hearing the name of the Xuanying Army, Chu You's pupils moved, and his thin lips couldn't help pursing into a straight line.

According to legend, the Xuanying Army is a strange army in the hands of Emperor Taizu, and it is also a secret guard. Not only are they the elite of the elite, but they also hold secret weapons, and one person can defeat a hundred people.

Emperor Taizu did not give the Xuanying Army to the late emperor, but eccentrically gave Fengyang a female class? !

Even if Xiao Shoufu hadn't said the follow-up, Chu You could have guessed the outcome of this move by the late emperor.

Xiao Shoufu's shriveled lips once again overflowed with a helpless sigh: "The appearance of the Xuanying Army has reversed the situation. The Jinyiwei and the accompanying forbidden army have been defeated, and the eldest princess led the Xuanying Army to the front of the emperor."

"But the royal family and the four princes are all there, and they have been peacemakers, and let the late emperor make a solemn oath in front of the Mausoleum of the Great Ancestor that he will not be rude to the eldest princess again in this life, and he must respect her, otherwise the sky will be struck by thunder. Willing to... abdicate to be worthy."

The last four words were almost word by word, and even his voice was a little hoarse.

I see! After hearing this story, Chu You finally understood at this moment, no wonder the late emperor always feared, feared and hated Feng Yang.

Xiao Shoufu picked up the tea cup and took two sips of tea slowly, his eyes flickering.

This was a power game within the royal family, but it gave their family a chance to rise again.

Taizu did not like the noble family, promoted the imperial examination, and promoted the children of the poor family. Therefore, during the reign of the Taizu, most of these families were suppressed, and only a few people took the imperial examination to please the Taizu.

After the first emperor officially ascended the throne, in order to suppress Fengyang, and to stabilize the country, he began to support the family, and even married Yuan as his successor to show his sincerity to the family.

Twenty years, it took their family a full twenty years to gain a firm foothold in the new dynasty and regain their former glory.

They will never let the hard work of the past 20 years be ruined!

Chu You lowered his eyes and pondered, recalling the story Xiao Shoufu told him, with a gloomy look on his face.

It was only now that he realized how difficult it was for his father over the years.

The late emperor also wanted to change him to the crown prince, and the support and opposition in the court were divided into five or five. He used to think that the late emperor was not as strong as the Taizu, but now he realized that the real reason was because Fengyang opposed.

After all, many of those old people who witnessed the incident in the imperial tomb 20 years ago are still alive...

In his thoughts, Xiao Shoufu's cold voice penetrated into his ears: "His Royal Highness, the eldest princess of Fengyang, is coming soon."

Chu You looked in Xiao Shoufu's direction again, and almost stood up from the chair without losing his temper.

Fengyang is the emperor's greatest help, the emperor is supported by her, and after the emperor ascends the throne, she is also the assistant to the emperor to consolidate the throne step by step.

Once Fengyang died, the emperor lost a great help.

This will be Chuyou's best chance.

Xiao Shoufu looked at Chu You with deep eyes, and said in a very calm voice: "My lord, don't come again when you can't miss it, you have to think about it carefully."

"The emperor is the direct son, and he succeeds the throne, which is justifiable. When he is completely settled in the country, what chance does the lord think you have?"

"My lord, you and the emperor have long been at odds with each other. Will the emperor let you go in the future?"

Xiao Shoufu stood up from the chair, frowning even tighter.

He seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally said, "Your Highness, aren't you deeply in love with the third girl of the Gu family? Do you want her to suffer with you?"

Xiao Shoufu said these two sentences very hard, and he really didn't understand why King Kang was so obsessed with a woman, but now, he can only try all feasible methods to move King Kang.

"..." Chu You felt as if he had been stabbed, and his heart ached.

Xiao Shoufu no longer persuaded him. After shaking his hand at Chu You, he turned and left.

Chu You stared blankly at the back of Xiao Shoufu's departure, as motionless as a stone sculpture.

The inner servant who was under the eaves saw Xiao Shoufu leave, and stepped into the hall again, looking at Chu You, who was in a state of worry, and called out in a low voice, "Your Highness?"

Chu You remained motionless as if he hadn't heard it.

His heart was aching and painful, but he knew clearly that he had to choose between the throne and Gu Yunchang.

He was reluctant to take the throne.

From the time he was four or five years old as a governor, the late emperor held him on his knees and told him lovingly: "You brother, everything I have will be inherited by you."

Over the years, his belief was rock solid and he never doubted it.

If he wants to choose the throne, then he must give up his son, and he must be separated from him forever...

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he felt empty and uneasy in his heart.

pounding!

Chu You's heart accelerated and contracted violently.

His face couldn't help showing pain, and he raised his hand and grabbed the front of the shirt on his left chest.

pounding!

His heart beat faster and faster, and his heart hurt even more. It seemed that an invisible big palm was pinching his heart in the palm of his hand...

His forehead was full of blue veins, his face was almost hideous, and every drop of cold sweat overflowed his forehead.

"My lord, what's the matter with you?" The servant looked at Chu You worriedly and asked, panicking, "The servant will go to summon the imperial physician..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw that Chu You had fallen from the chair clutching his chest in pain...

"Your Highness!"

The shrill cry of the waiter almost overturned the roof.

Kang Wang Chuyou suddenly fell ill.

For several days, Kang Wangfu not only invited several imperial physicians, but also several doctors from Beijing.

This matter is not a secret either, Gu Yanfei heard about it and didn't care.

Gu Yanfei has been very leisurely these days, so he stayed in Gu's house all day, not only copied the "Ksitigarbha Sutra", but also made some paper money and folded some paper ingots.

In a few days, it will be the death ceremony of his father Gu Ce.

After    people die, if there is no accident, they will enter reincarnation. Their father should have also entered reincarnation and started a new life.

In order to accumulate merit for his next life, Gu Yanfei specially wrote a spell on paper money and paper ingots, and sent people to Boundless View in advance to make an appointment for a day, intending to do a ritual for Gu Ce.

It has been almost nine years, and it will be nine years since his father, Gu Ce, died.

At that time, Gu Ce was accused of "deferring to the enemy and treason", and the court officials impeached him, and the people who did not know the insider scolded him. He became the target of public criticism. Although the late emperor thought that Gu Yuncong saved King Kang and did not win the title, he still punished the Houfu. The hereditary Yongye Tian and Hou Mansion were also abandoned by the capital's various prefectures.

At this time in the last life, Gu Yanfei, like everyone else, thought that his father had defected to the enemy and betrayed the country, and felt ashamed to have such a father.

But later, after the eldest brother Gu Yuan was injured, he had no errands. When he stayed in the house all day, he told her a lot about his father's life, and told her a lot of what his father taught him since he was a child.

In the mouth of the eldest brother, their father, Gu Ce, is a man who stands tall in the sky, bright and beautiful, and Yue Zhiyuan.

Big Brother never believed that his father would go to the enemy.

At that time, Gu Yanfei's original thoughts were also shaken. She believed in the elder brother, so she was willing to believe in the bright father that the elder brother spoke of.

Only later, the eldest brother died, and her sky fell.

For her at the time, it didn't matter what kind of person her father was...

A gust of wind suddenly blew from the window, blowing the paper money that Gu Yanfei had just written the spell on.

"Be careful!"

Gu Yunzhen, who had just entered the room, stepped forward in three and two steps, and pinched the piece of paper money that was almost blown away by the wind.

Gu Yunzhen carefully put the paper money into the box. She didn't know how to write spells, so she could only help Gu Yanfei origami ingots.

"Second sister, I'll go with you tomorrow." Gu Yunzhen said.

Gu Yanfei gave a soft "um" and continued to fold paper ingots.

Gu Yunzhen folded the gold foil paper slowly, every step was so careful and careful, as if this was a matter of no greater importance.

The room was silent for a while, and occasionally there was a cat meowing in the distance.

After a while, Gu Yunzhen's soft voice sounded slowly, breaking the silence in the room: "Uncle is a very gentle person, and he is very friendly to us juniors."

"When I was two years old, my eldest uncle returned to the capital to report his work, and he took me and my eldest brother to play around the capital."

"On the Qixi Festival, he even put lanterns for my elder brother and I, and took us to the Qixi Lantern Festival..."

Although Gu Yunzhen was only two years old at the time, this scene was etched in her heart forever.

She grew up gradually, and she always envied her eldest brother for having a father like the eldest uncle. Her father would not hold his child like the eldest uncle, and her father would not take the child out to play like the eldest uncle. , her father will not enlighten his children by himself like an uncle's father...

But…

Gu Yunzhen stopped the origami movement and turned to look at Gu Yanfei's beautiful profile. The girl's fair skin looked like a fragile flower petal under the warm light, and it would go away with the wind when it blew.

However, her second sister has neither seen the eldest uncle, nor has she ever gotten along with the eldest uncle.

Gu Yun really felt a little unpleasant in his heart, sour and astringent.

Even if Su Niang is punished, the regret in the second sister's heart will never be made up for.
