The continuous fighting lasted for a while before the palace guards slowly regained the upper hand, and other nobles living in the Emperor's City also led their guards to protect the palace. After that, the palace guards finally relaxed.
He breathed a sigh of relief. The Goudian Guards were also injured during this fight, but because Goudian equipped the members of the Guards with armor, only a few of the Guards soldiers who actually died were not injured.
The backbone. Other nobles also came to gather with Gou Dian. After the number of soldiers from the Guards Regiment was roughly enough, Gou Dian and other nobles walked into the palace under the leadership of Gongsun Ying. As for
Other Guards soldiers continued to assist in the defense of the palace.
"Your Highness, Second Prince, it's really great that you are fine." While walking inside the palace, a blue-haired nobleman nodded and bowed to Gongsun Ying, asking questions, his expression full of flattery.
Gongsun Ying nodded casually and said: "I'm fine. I'm protected by Viscount Goudian and his bodyguards. That number of enemies can't cause harm to me." After saying that, Gongsun Ying also looked at the man standing behind him.
The top of wolfberry.
Gou Dian shook his head and chuckled, saying: "It's nothing. His Royal Highness the Second Prince happened to be beside Gou at that time, and Gou just tried his best."
"Yes, yes, if His Highness the Second Prince had been with us at that time, then we would have done the same thing." The other nobles nodded in agreement, as if they were afraid that others would not know their contribution.
Goudian didn't care about this. In his opinion, Prince Ying seemed to have no interest in government affairs and was only focusing on refining medicine. These nobles were probably just wasting their efforts here. Even if they please Prince Ying, they might not get much benefit.
Gongsun Ying only nodded slightly in response to the agreement of the nobles on the scene, and continued to lead the way without saying anything. At this moment, what he was most worried about was the safety of his father, Emperor Great Britain. Some of the guards at the entrance of the palace were wearing double arms.
Their legs were weak. Under such circumstances, it was hard to guarantee that they had made some omissions and allowed some thieves to enter the palace. If those rebel thieves were allowed to enter the palace, then their first target would naturally be Emperor Great Britain. Of course, if they wanted to take down Great Britain
The royal families of the great empires have wiped out the eldest prince Gongsun Cheng, his Gongsun Ying, the third prince Gongsun Ni, the ninth prince Gongsun Ming, etc. will all be the second targets of the rebels, but those are another matter. The most important thing now is
The safety of Emperor Great Britain. If Emperor Great Britain was assassinated, the Great Britain Empire would be turbulent in a short time. This turmoil might allow other surrounding empires to take advantage of the situation. Gongsun Ying needed to try his best to avoid this.
.I am afraid that the inner thoughts of other nobles are the same, otherwise they would not have rushed over with their bodyguards to support them. Of course, whether there are spies among these nobles who have other ideas is another matter.
There are a total of five nobles following the second prince Gongsun Ying. Among them are a viscount, a first-class viscount, an earl, two marquises, and one. As for the other nobles living in the Emperor's City, they may have led their bodyguards to arrive.
All parties in the Emperor's City provided support. Gongsun Ying and others turned a few corners and entered the main hall of the palace. When Gongsun Ying and others saw that the eldest prince Gongsun Cheng was safe and sound, Gou Dian and others relaxed a little.
One breath.
"Brother, is your father okay?" Gongsun Ying walked directly to Gongsun Cheng and asked sincerely. He could see some blood stains on Gongsun Cheng's clothes. I'm afraid it was true that he had been in the palace before.
There was also a fierce fight.
Gongsun Cheng smiled slightly and nodded, saying: "My father is fine, second brother, you can rest assured. However, the battle just now gave my father a false alarm, so now my father is recuperating in the dormitory. The imperial doctor has also been
We were called in to conduct a consultation for our father, and there are soul emperor-level guards guarding the surroundings of our father's bedroom, so you don't have to worry too much." As he spoke, Gongsun Cheng also glanced at the nobles on the field from left to right.
Gou Dian and others were obviously relieved when they heard this, as long as the Great Emperor was fine. Even so, the Great Emperor only needed to rest because of a false alarm, which made Gou Dian and others understand even more now.
It is true that the Great Emperor was weak. Thinking about this, the matter of establishing a prince suddenly became very important, because no one knew when the Great Emperor would suddenly die with a long cry. A country cannot live without a king for a day.
Everyone on the field knows this.
Just when everyone was making many guesses, Gongsun Ying nodded to Gongsun Cheng and asked again: "Brother, what is going on? What kind of forces are these rebels? Now it's clear
?”
"We already have some clues." Gongsun Cheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Now, the four gates in the southeast and northwest of the Emperor's City have been attacked by the enemy, and there are still enemy henchmen walking around in the city. This may be the biggest problem in the past hundred years.
The emperor's biggest riot. More details have not yet been identified, but one thing is certain, that is the 'right shadow', the Gou family of the Xiaerjia Principality, the Zhu family of the Wowuyuan Principality, and the Tu family of the Xiaerjia Principality
There is no doubt that the five factions of the family and the Liu family of Ba Fu Te Principality were involved in this rebellion."
"Xiaerjia Principality's Gou family!?" Gou Dian was stunned when he heard this! He himself was originally a member of the Gou family. If it hadn't been for some reasons that caused him to break away from the Gou family, I'm afraid he would also be the same now.
He was a member of the rebellion, and he was shocked again just thinking about it. It is very simple for a family to incite rebellion among its members. Every member of the family will have a great dependence on their family. As long as
The words of the family elders, especially the patriarch, and the words "for the family" mean that people in the family will go through fire and water without hesitation. Members of a family are brainwashed like this. If they are young people, they are even more likely to be incited by the family elders.
There is no doubt that if things are true as Gongsun Cheng said, then the young people of the Gou family who are familiar with Gou Dian now may have also participated in the rebellion.
The moment they heard the words "Xiaerjia Principality's Gou family", the nobles on the scene couldn't help but cast their eyes on Gou Dian. Since Gou Dian's surname is Gou, he must be related to the Gou family. People
It's natural to think that way.
Gou Dian could not deny this. He shook his head and smiled bitterly and could only say: "I have now left the Gou family and am no longer a member of the Gou family. At least this rebellion has nothing to do with me. I am not a traitor. If
If you don’t believe it, it doesn’t matter if you lock me up. If you have the ability, it doesn’t matter if you even kill the leader of the Gou family, Gou Saidong, in front of me, but please don’t point the finger at my sister.”
"If my sister is injured in any way, I don't know what I will do!" As he said that, a strange coldness appeared in the corner of Gou Dian's mouth, and this coldness made the whole audience feel cold.
! Goudian is indeed just a small first-grade soul commander, but such a first-grade soul commander can actually exert pressure that even the powerful Soul Emperor is afraid of. This alone is enough to make people look at him with suspicion.
A cold moment, a sudden cold moment! The frozen atmosphere slowly dissipated as a faint smile bloomed again on the face of Gou Dian. The other nobles looked at each other, hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehealsoalsoagreeed: Oops, Gou Dian-level Viscount made a strong statement.
, Everyone knows that Viscount Gou Dian broke away from the Gou family years ago, and no one will directly suspect Viscount Gou Dian just because his surname is Gou!"
"Yes, yes, that's it."
"If anyone tries to get in trouble with Viscount Goudian indiscriminately, I will be the first one not to let him go!"
The nobles on the field nodded in agreement, so that the atmosphere on the field was slightly relieved. The eldest prince Gongsun Cheng nodded and said: "Indeed, at least the top Viscount Gou is still here and his relatives are still here.
The fact that the guards also helped guard the palace proved that he had nothing to do with the Gou family of Xiaerjia Principality who wanted to rebel. Look, apart from Brother Gou, there are other nobles on the field who are Gou, Zhu, Tu and Liu.
Are they from the four ancient beast soul families?"
As soon as this statement came out, the echoes on the court became even louder. Of course, there were still many people on the court who still had reservations about Gou Dian, who was originally a member of the Gou family, but they would not do so in this situation.
Dare to take down Gou Dian directly, because they have no evidence to prove that Gou Dian is the traitor.
Facing the scene on the court, Gou Dian just shook his head and chuckled. The hypocritical faces of everyone on the court really made him unhappy, but he couldn't ignore it. This was the disgusting side of officialdom. He was just a
The junior viscounts all have to face this, and what the earls, marquis and even dukes above have to face is even more unbearable.
"However, in addition to the four ancient beast soul families of Gou, Zhu, Tu, and Liu, there are also earls, marquises and even dukes who seem to have participated in this rebellion, right? In this case, all the nobles except the royal family here
They are all suspected of being traitors. Can everyone here be trusted under such circumstances?" Suddenly remembering Xiao Chengfeng's words before, Gou Dian narrowed his eyes slightly and said without redness and breathlessness. Then he followed Gou Dian's words.
As soon as he said these words, the atmosphere in the whole place changed from hypocritical to a world of ice and snow and extremely cold.
Gongsun Cheng was obviously at a loss for this atmosphere. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay, now is not the time to doubt each other. Even if there is a traitor here, we can't care about it now. I hope everyone can trust each other for the time being.
The Imperial City will be defended today, let’s talk about what happens next.”
As everyone on the court said yes, the atmosphere slowly relaxed again. However, what Gou Dian just said has filled the hearts of everyone on the court with grudges. I am afraid that they will not be able to unite again for a while.
