Chapter five hundred and seventy seventh Gao Zhan's death
"Kill, leave no one behind."
Su Lu slashed his arm downwards, making an offensive gesture.
"Puff puff"
The ballista battalion was the first to take action, and the arm-thick crossbow arrows instantly blocked the palace wall, and the remaining palace guards were instantly shot to pieces.
Then came the bird soldiers. The birds with reloaded arrows flew over the palace wall again. Arrows fell like rain. In just a blink of an eye, the palace walls were filled with arrows. Large swaths of palace guards were captured.
Shoot down.
Su Lu waved his hand, and the Dingbei Army and the Imperial Guards from the patrol camp began to advance into the palace.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has given birth to a princess."
A female guard rushed out and said.
Su Lu was overjoyed when he heard this. He didn't care about fighting anymore and turned around and entered the curtain. Amidst the shouts of several stable women, he entered the Luan Jia.
"Prince"
Li Qing's tired voice came, his sweaty cheeks turned pale, and when he saw Su Lu, his whole body was filled with an invisible weakness.
"Is the war going badly? Don't worry about me, we'll just leave."
Li Qing said weakly.
Su Lu held Li Qing's hand and said, "No problem, with me in charge, is there still an unwinnable battle?"
middle."
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Li Qing's pale cheeks, and he spoke slowly:
"That's good, that's good."
"Your Majesty, I gave birth to a daughter."
Su Lu waved his hand and said nonchalantly:
"Well done to my daughter. From now on, she will be the heir to the empire and the future queen."
The surroundings were quiet. All the female officials and Wen Po looked at Su Lu in surprise. The prince was not biased at all. Not only did he make your majesty the empress, but the future princess would also be made the empress.
A blush appeared on Li Qingqiao's face, she shook her head slowly and said:
"No, by making me emperor, you have already suffered the infamy. I, I will definitely give you a son."
Su Lu patted Li Qing's arm:
"Is it difficult to have a baby?"
Li Qing couldn't help but tremble a little when he thought about the pain just now and the thought of having to endure that pain again.
Changning next to him spoke:
"There is no pain in giving birth. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the princess is here."
The princess has already taken a bath, but because she was just born, her little face is wrinkled and she doesn't look good at all.
Po Wen said against her will:
"Look how beautiful the little princess is. She will be as beautiful as Your Majesty when she grows up."
"As handsome as the prince, the little princess wants to be the queen."
Changning curled his lips and said nothing.
Su Lu hugged the little princess and shook his head:
"I don't know if she will be beautiful in the future. Anyway, she is very ugly now. Look at that wrinkled little face."
Li Qing propped up his pillow, raised his body slightly, and watched Su Lu put the child next to him, with a smile on his face.
"It's a bit ugly. I thought all babies would be fair and white when they were born, but I didn't expect them to be like this."
"Hehe, no matter how ugly you are, you are still my daughter. Your father said that he wants you to be the queen. I am not happy..."
Su Lu looked at Po Wen around him, smiled and ordered:
"You have done a good job in escorting me. Each of you will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver. Go ahead."
After receiving fifty taels of silver at once, several stable women thanked them with smiles, and then happily went out to collect the reward from the manager.
While Su Lu and Li Qing were teasing the little princess, Su Ge came over to report that Gao Zhan was here.
Su Lu frowned. Gao Zhan was Li Qing's eunuch. He hesitated to come in, fearing that he might be injured.
"I gonna go see"
Su Lu put down her daughter, stood up and walked out.
Outside the curtain, a tall man stood with bare hands, a solemn expression, and his clothes were covered with blood.
When Su Lu saw Gao Zhan, he immediately frowned and ordered:
"Come here, send the message to the imperial doctor. All the imperial doctors will send it to me."
With that said, Su Lu supported Gao Zhan.
"Eunuch Gao, it's okay. The imperial doctor will be here right away."
Gao Zhan shook his head, "Your Majesty, please stop comforting me. I am a great master. I know what my body is like. I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this time."
"Originally, I wanted to go see His Majesty and the little princess, but I couldn't hold it any longer. The Queen Mother Xiaogan didn't listen to what I said and wanted to go to the Guanlan Palace. The old slave was incompetent and risked his life, almost unable to protect her.
The Empress Dowager Xiaogan and later General Wang Si were seriously injured and saved the old slave and the Empress Dowager."
"My lord, please don't blame General Wang Si. He has tried his best, but he didn't expect Xie Ruyu to act so decisively."
The imperial physician came over and began to feel Gao Zhan's pulse, but after a moment, Xia Yuanjian shook his head and his face turned gloomy.
"Eunuch Gao has a strong inner breath, but now his meridians are severely damaged and his Dantian is completely destroyed. He can only hold on until now, only to regain his strength."
Judge Xia's expression was ugly, and he was very distressed when he saw that Gao Zhan, who was seriously injured, could not be treated.
Gao Zhan patted Judge Xia on the shoulder.
"Master Xia, there is no need to be sad. I, Gao Zhan, am ninety and two years old this year. I live a long life, and my death can be regarded as the end of my life."
"Today I can see the prince eliminate the internal enemies and kill the great master of the Tang Dynasty. The Han Dynasty will no longer have any constraints. It will be as easy as possible to defeat the Tang Dynasty. All my wishes have been fulfilled."
"Your Majesty has ascended the throne smoothly. In the past ten years since he has been in power, the country has become rich and the people are strong, and the army and horses are strong. Now that I have seen the little princess again, I can go to see the late emperor with peace of mind."
Su Lu patted Gao Zhan's hand:
"Let's not talk about it for now. I'm going to find Xie Ruyu. If he can save you, it doesn't matter if I let him go once."
Gao Zhan shook his head,
"My lord, it's useless. Just ask Mr. Xia. Even if there is a great master, it's useless."
Judge Xia shook his head,
"Eunuch Gao's tendons and veins have been severed, his inner breath has dispersed into his flesh and blood, and he may die at any time."
Su Lu sat down slumped, his expression ugly.
To lure the snake out of the hole, just to be safe, he told Gao Zhan the news, and ordered Gao Zhan to lead the palace guards to guard the palace, and set up two more guards outside as insurance.
Despite all the calculations, Xie Ruyu instigated a rebellion against Li Lin, the palace guards rebelled, and Gao Zhan lost his life due to exhaustion.
"Okay, Eunuch Gao, if you have any unfulfilled wishes, I, Su Lu, can help you."
Gao Zhan shook his head:
"I thank you for your kindness. No need. All my brothers and sisters have passed away. My nephews and nephews are all gone. The ones below are not close to me in the first place and do not need to be taken care of. I believe that under the rule of your majesty and the prince,
They can live a healthy life and no longer have to be like the old slaves who had to purify themselves and become eunuchs just to get a bite of food."
"The old slave is injured, so he won't go to see Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please bring the old slave's thoughts to Your Majesty. The old slave is too bloody and can't hit the princess, so I won't say goodbye to Your Majesty."
With that said, Gao Zhan stood up, knocked down Su Lu's hand that was trying to help him, knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times to Luan Jia, and then stood up.
The sleeves of his robes were fluttering, and he looked high and raised his eyebrows as he said:
"Your Majesty, this old slave has been in the palace for eighty years and has never disobeyed others. Your Majesty is one of you. Mr. Xie, who is still stubbornly resisting in the palace now, counts as half."
"Today I can have Mr. Xie, who is also the Grand Master, on the road together. This old slave has not come to me in vain."
As he said this, Gao Zhan, who had white hair and beard, jumped up, like a phantom, and threw himself on the palace wall. He pulled out phantoms on the palace wall and fell into the palace wall.
The next moment, frightened and angry sounds came from the palace.
"Gao Zhan, you old man doesn't want to live anymore!"
"Hahaha, if a great master dies with me, I have no regrets about Gao Zhan's death."
