Gu Luo being taken away seemed to be just an inconspicuous episode.

In the banquet hall, the emperor has not yet arrived. Under the leadership of the prince, all the concubines, royal heirs, courtiers, and family members are having a great time together.

"Why don't you see Princess Anbo?" The prince searched around the crowd for two or three times but couldn't find Gu Luo. He frowned and turned his head to ask the second prince next to him.

Today he wants to force the palace to seize the throne, and he also wants to have a taste of Gu Luo.

Ever since Gu Luo came to Kyoto, he had been coveting Gu Luo's appearance. Before, he was unable to do it because he wanted to save Gu Hua's face from Anping's residence. Later, he was afraid of Yu Yan and couldn't do it. Later, Yu Yan was not here, but the affairs of the court were complicated.

No chance to start.

When he succeeded in seizing the throne, the first thing he did was to drag Gu Luo onto the dragon cave and enjoy it to his heart's content.

The second prince looked at the lust in the prince's eyes and said expressionlessly: "I heard that she was just taken away by the royal grandmother's people, saying that she interfered with the destiny of the country or something."

After a pause, the second prince snorted coldly.

"Yu Yan didn't show up for a long time. I think my father was afraid, so he used the name of the emperor's grandmother to arrest Gu Luo directly, hoping to force Yu Yan to show up."

When the prince heard this, he almost laughed out loud.

Is there such a good thing in the world?

He was going to use his long years to assassinate the emperor and force the palace to seize the throne. The Queen Mother just happened to arrest Gu Luo? Doesn't this mean that it gave Prince Anbo an excuse to rebel?

The prince's heart was filled with excitement. He grabbed the wine bottle in front of him and poured himself a drink, then raised his head and drank.

The turbulent light in his eyes could not be concealed.

The second prince did not lie. The ones who arrested Gu Luo were the Queen Mother and Xinrou in name, but in fact they were the Emperor.

When King Duankang was arrested before, someone whispered in front of the emperor that the commander of the imperial army was colluding with Prince Yu. In addition, there was no news from Yu Yan for so long, and the emperor became suspicious.

He caught Gu Luo and wanted to force him out of Yu Yan.

Royal study room.

The emperor was wearing a birthday robe sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs early in the morning, with a purple and gold auspicious dragon climbing up his body, and a gold-edged stand-up collar poking at the bottom of his flabby neck. The luxurious clothes could not hide the morbidity and age on the emperor's face.

In just one year, he seemed to have aged more than ten years.

The already baggy eyelids drooped even more.

The head chamberlain tied the waist protector for the emperor. The emperor spread his hands slightly to both sides, with a sinister smile in his eyes, "Have you been arrested?"

The head chamberlain responded from behind the emperor, "He's caught. Princess Xinrou caught her personally. Now the Linglong Pavilion, which is locked outside the Queen Mother's palace, has released the news. The people in Prince Anbo's palace must have gotten the news now."

The emperor snorted, "Keep an eye on Anbo Prince's Mansion. If someone goes out to deliver a letter or a flying pigeon delivers a message, keep an eye on me."

After experiencing the rebellion caused by King Duankang, coupled with his recent frequent physical discomforts, the considerateness shown by the chamberlain made the emperor feel more and more at ease with this person.

There was a little distrust in the past, but with the sincere concern shown by the chamberlain and chamberlain who vomited blood several times, the emperor's distrust gradually disappeared.

"Have all the things sent from various places been registered?"

After the waist guard was buttoned, the chamberlain arranged the sleeves of the emperor's clothes. The emperor looked at him with lowered eyes and asked.

The chamberlain had served the emperor for many years and knew what this meant, "The things sent by Guangdong and Guangxi are the most valuable. Qianzhou may be in the northwest area. The famine is severe. They only sent a picture of Longevity, which is similar to the one sent last year. On the other hand, in Yuhang, due to His Majesty's resolute and iron-blooded tactics, a large number of former Yuhang officials were replaced. The newly appointed officials were grateful to Your Majesty and sent many novel things, which are placed in the Imperial Garden. Your Majesty can take a look at them later. .”

On the emperor's birthday, heavy gifts will be sent from all over the world.

The king of a country would not be able to open the gifts one by one in front of the guests, so what would it be like? But he always wanted to show that the country was peaceful and the people were safe, and he also had to display the majesty of the emperor in front of the courtiers. Therefore, every birthday, the emperor would show it in public. Some congratulatory gifts.

With the presence of the chief chamberlain, the emperor almost had a plan in mind. Everything was packed and he was about to leave.

"Your Majesty, first drink a bowl of pear soup to moisten your throat, spleen and lungs. I'm afraid you'll have to drink when you get there later." The chamberlain said hurriedly, stopped the emperor, turned around and took out a bowl from the food box on the table. I poured a bowl of thick pear soup out of the insulated soup kettle.

This thoughtfulness made the emperor feel very happy, "I am lucky to have you in front of me, otherwise I would not be able to bear those people being so angry, no matter how good my body is!"

The emperor took the bowl of pear soup and drank it with satisfaction.

The head chamberlain's eyes were smiling. Seeing that the emperor drank every drop, his smile became even stronger. "If you drink, I will feel relieved."

"ah!"

"who!"

"Help!"

Just as he was talking, there was suddenly a loud noise outside.

First came the frightened screams of the little chamberlain, and then the roars of the guards. Before the roars could stop, the clang of swords clashing and the screams of people turning on their backs could be heard harshly.

The bowl of pear soup in the emperor's hand suddenly trembled with his hand and fell to the ground, smashing into pieces.

The head chamberlain was horrified and ran towards the door of the imperial study room to see what was going on outside. Before he could reach the door, the door of the imperial study room was suddenly kicked open by someone.

The head chamberlain was so frightened that he stumbled backwards. Before the sound in his throat could come out, he grunted and was kicked away from his face.

Bang.

The chamberlain flew up in the air, fell heavily, and landed directly in front of the emperor's feet.

He vomited a mouthful of blood from his mouth and struggled to crawl twice, trying to get up to protect the emperor, but he pressed his fingers several times and couldn't move.

How can the emperor have the mind to care about the chamberlain at this time? The chief chamberlain couldn't move. Eight or nine men in black suddenly burst into the royal study. They were all holding sharp swords and long swords, and the blades were dripping with blood. , the leader rushed towards him as soon as he came in.

The emperor was so frightened that he turned around and ran away.

The moment he turned around after just putting on his birthday robe, he was stabbed with a long sword from behind and opened a large gash.

How can the golden thread of cloud brocade rival that murderous sword?

The sword only cut through the clothes, but the emperor was so frightened that his scalp was numb and his whole body was numb. The majestic king of a country screamed for help like a chicken barking or a dog barking, and he ran forward desperately.

The people behind were killing people like crazy, how could they not catch him, but they didn't try their best to chase him, just like an old cat teasing a mouse, stabbing left and right, constantly teasing the emperor, causing him to cause more embarrassment

and panic.

It wasn't until the emperor rushed to the inner room of the royal study to close the door that the leader of the men in black grabbed the emperor's neck like a chicken, and pulled the man who was wearing a dragon robe but shivering like chaff.
