His eyes retracted from the window and rested on Gu Zixu's frowning face again. He smiled lightly and shook his head, saying: "No, I still have another way to go."
Gu Zixu was stunned at first, his eyes were confused because of Nangong Shuo's sudden expression of relief. Then, as if something suddenly occurred to him, he looked at Nangong Shuo and said in surprise:
"A Shuo, don't be joking."
Nangong Shuo didn't answer, but the smile on his face became even brighter and pleasing to the eye.
He reached out and patted Gu Zixu's shoulder heavily, and left from the imperial study without saying a word, leaving Gu Zixu standing in the hall, looking at Nangong Shuo's back, unable to say a word.
Xianling Hall——
"See the Emperor."
"Well, you go down."
This is the place where the ancestors of the Nangong family are enshrined. Special personnel usually take care of it, but Nangong Shuo rarely comes here after taking office.
Today, he appeared in the Xianling Hall, which surprised the palace guards.
The door of the palace was pushed open, and the ranking of the ancestors of the past generations was in front of them. Each of them looked like a pair of sharp eyes, staring at Nangong Shuo who was gradually approaching them.
The door behind him was closed.
Nangong Shuo stepped forward and knelt down heavily in front of the late emperor's spiritual throne, "Father, my son has protected the Nangong family's kingdom for you, and my mission can be completed."
He kowtowed heavily in front of the spiritual throne, then knelt straight again and continued: "You asked me to protect what you wanted, and I did it. Now, I have to protect what I want to protect, even if she
She is no longer here, but I will devote my whole life to protecting her and protecting her family for her. Please forgive me for being unfilial!"
After that, he kowtowed several times in front of the memorial tablet, and then left the Hall of the Ancient Spirits with a relieved heart.
Two days later, Nangong Shuo's younger brother, Prince Nangong Qi of Pingyang, was ordered to arrive in Beijing, which surprised everyone.
"Brother Imperial, you are in a hurry to summon me back to the capital. Is there anything urgent?"
"Royal brother, I have something to ask of you!"
"What's up?"
"Help me protect this country for my father."
"I??!!!"
This sentence shocked Nangong Qi. Three days later, it also shocked the civil and military officials of the court and the people of the entire Beixuan world.
Their emperor actually gave the throne to Prince Pingyang after pacifying the rebellious officials and stabilizing the country of Beixuan. This is undoubtedly a huge thing.
People who know about it can't help but be speechless and even more incredible.
Many ministers understand what is the main purpose of Nangong Shuo doing this?
When the emperor ascends the throne and the new emperor ascends the throne, he can grant a general amnesty to the whole world. The emperor can pardon Shangguan's family in such a justifiable way.
Sure enough, a few days after the new emperor ascended the throne, he ordered a general amnesty and everyone celebrated. The Shangguancheng family, who were supposed to be executed, were acquitted and demoted to common people.
The former emperor Nangong Shuo became the only prince of the Beixuan Dynasty.
No one thought that such an emperor would be willing to give up his entire country for a woman.
Originally, he could choose any woman in the world, but in the end, he betrayed the common people and gave up his glory for such a strange spirit.
Guarding the Prince's Mansion alone, guarding the promise he never fulfilled.
