Empress, you don't want to be thrown into limbo by your father, do you?

In the imperial palace, Emperor Ganming originally rushed to attack the table angrily, but now he looked at the figure who was waiting respectfully in the palace.

In addition to the angry look on his face, there was more thoughtfulness, and he asked in a deep voice: "Gu Qing, you want me to order the crown prince to wipe out the immortal sect?"

"Forgive me to speak frankly, the crown prince is now deeply rooted in the ruling and opposition parties, and the court is assisted by the prime minister and others. Now after the investigation by the Imperial City Secretary, it is found that he has too close contact with those green forests and grasses in the rivers and lakes. In the long run, I am worried..."

What was he worried about, Gu Fan didn't continue, he deliberately paused before speaking.

Who is Emperor Qianming?

He was also suppressed by the first emperor back then, and in the life-and-death situation where other princes fought each other, he finally had the last laugh.

So it is very clear that if the prince continues to be allowed to develop, not to mention that the dragon chair under his buttocks will not be stable, even his old life will not be saved.

"I know you are loyal, forgive you for your innocence!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Gu Fan's expression remained unchanged. He actually didn't really want to participate in the quagmire of the battle for the throne. However, compared to himself, it is the principle of life to repay what you do well.

So even if he didn't want him, he still had his own selfishness. Compared with the prince, he naturally wanted Li Changshou to ascend the throne.

Emperor Gan Ming didn't get angry, nor did he reprimand him on the spot.

On the contrary, at this moment, he was pacing back and forth in the Imperial Palace Shang's study, looking as if he was hesitating and contemplating.

Gu Fan didn't dare to urge to interrupt, but just waited aside.

I don't know how long it took, but Emperor Qianming finally seemed to have considered the stakes clearly, sat back and took out the imperial decree, dipped his pen in the ink but didn't write immediately.

"I ask you, what if the crown prince is unwilling?"

Emperor Qianming was not a kind and benevolent person. Although he has been stupid these years, he has now recovered a bit of his former style, with an unpredictable cold light shining in his eyes.

Xianmen!

When he thought of the woman in white that he met twice, he felt shuddering, and at the same time, he was full of anger and had nowhere to vent.

As the Son of Heaven, he was threatened by a mere commoner with a sword in his throat. Fortunately, no one saw him, otherwise Emperor Qianming would never have allowed the people who saw that scene to live in this world.

It's about his emperor's face and self-esteem!
"Return to Your Majesty, the prince dare not resist the order, otherwise he will be disloyal, righteous and filial!"

What Gu Fan said was rather subtle, but Emperor Qianming knew in his heart that no one would dare to resist the imperial decree, not even the crown prince!

He is still the master of this world, and the emperor of the Daqian dynasty!

No matter how powerful the prince is, no matter how many ministers in the court are inclined to the prince, unless they directly rebel, they cannot defy the imperial decree in terms of righteousness.

especially!
As a scholar in the world who is extremely obsessed with righteousness and fame, Emperor Qianming sneered, "That's right, I want to see how the prime minister treats the prince!"

The reason why the Qingliu is a Qingliu is that it claims to emerge from the mud without being stained, and it is a Qingliu in the government and the public.

Maybe they are also greedy for power and wealth, but those people value fame more!
"Your Majesty is wise!"

There are some things that cannot be discussed further.

Gu Fan quickly bowed, he had said enough tonight, and the next step is to see how Emperor Qianming makes his own choice.

After waiting for a while, it turned out that Emperor Qianming had already drawn up the imperial edict, and he had drawn up two imperial edicts in succession!
"Gu Qing!"

"Wei Chen is here!"

Emperor Qianming directly took out an imperial decree, and Gu Fan immediately stepped forward to take it respectfully with both hands, "Do it right away, there must be no mistakes!"

"Sir, obey the order!"

After receiving the imperial decree, Gu Fan withdrew directly, and tonight Emperor Ganming drew up two imperial decrees.

One of them was in his hands, and after exiting the imperial palace, Gu Fan opened the imperial decree and took a look, showing such an expression as expected.

The content of the imperial decree is very simple, want to arrest the fairy gate!

Correct!
Emperor Qianming directly decreed that Xianmen is a traitor. As long as this imperial decree is spread, it means that the official sentence will be pronounced.

The reason why Emperor Qianming never made this decision before was also because he didn't dare to take risks.

A Jianghu sect full of masters is too dangerous for the current imperial palace. Most of the masters of the royal family have died, and even the emperor is afraid of being assassinated.

But tonight, Emperor Qianming made up his mind!

He has no way to retreat!

"Sure enough, as His Majesty said, His Majesty is almost unable to accommodate the Crown Prince."

Gu Fan's entry into the palace tonight was actually arranged by Li Changshou in advance.

Including rhetoric and proposals, they were all tips left behind by Li Changshou's secret order, and judging from the results, the effect was even better than expected.

"Master Gu."

Just after reading the imperial decree, someone appeared in front of Gu Fan.

Looking up and seeing a smiling old face, Gu Fan hurriedly cupped his hands in salute, "I pay my respects to Eunuch Cao."

"Hey, you and I are officials in the same dynasty, and we are not in the court now, so there is no need to be so polite."

Eunuch Cao now replaces the deceased Eunuch Liu in charge of the Internal Servant Department. He is a fourth-rank official, which is indeed higher than that of the imperial city envoy.

However, Eunuch Cao was very enthusiastic, "Master Gu just met His Majesty?"

"Yes, I have something important to meet with His Majesty."

"I see."

Eunuch Cao originally wanted to get closer and be more polite, but he also saw that Gu Fan was not that smooth and his attitude was rather distant.

It's not good to put a hot face on a cold hip, so I can only smile and nod and say nothing more.

"Then the official will not disturb the father-in-law. The Imperial City Secretary still has official duties, so leave!"

"Master Gu, go slowly."

……

"Miss."

In the palace, a soft sedan chair appeared for an unknown amount of time. Eunuch Cao stepped forward quickly and then bent over to get in front of the sedan chair.

"it's him?"

A gentle and charming voice sounded, and one could not help thinking about it just by hearing the voice without seeing the person.

And to be able to walk around at will in such a late night in the palace, there is no other choice except the imperial concubine.

"My lady, it is this person, His Highness regards him very highly, and he does not hesitate to personally ask His Majesty to appoint him as the imperial envoy."

The noble concubine lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and Eunuch Cao hurriedly stepped forward to help him, but saw the noble concubine wave her hand, and then got off the sedan chair and looked at the back of the faraway figure.

Just now, she was looking at him here, so she could see Gu Fan's face clearly.

"Shou'er has always been prudent in handling affairs. I didn't think much about it before. Now it seems that there are other reasons behind it."

A sneer made Eunuch Cao and the surrounding court ladies and eunuchs tremble.

They are all from the magic sect, so they understand the concubine's methods better than anyone else, if they are really angry, whoever will be in trouble.

Fortunately, Eunuch Cao has followed the noble concubine for many years, so he understands her temperament to some extent. Hearing this, he immediately stepped forward and bowed and said, "This old slave was negligent. I didn't expect Mrs. Gu to have a problem with her background..."

Sometimes no matter how smart a person is, there will be omissions.

The so-called wise man is bound to make a mistake if he thinks about it. This is true for the noble concubine, and so is Eunuch Cao.

It's really hard to think about it in the dark under the lights.

"Your Majesty, do you want this old slave..."

Eunuch Cao showed a sinister expression, and made a murderous gesture.

"Hmph! Now that he has been moved, how will I explain to Shou'er in the future?"

When the noble concubine heard the words, she grunted and scolded softly, and Eunuch Cao bowed her head in fright, "It's the old slave who didn't think carefully, so please calm down."

"Don't touch him for the time being. No matter how you look at it now, this person is sincerely doing things for Shou'er, and his ability is not bad. Keeping him will be useful to the great cause of our sect and Shou'er!!"

Eunuch Cao immediately smiled obsequiously and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Send someone to keep an eye on it, and there is no news from Jiangnan?!"

"My lady, there is no news yet."

The imperial concubine was very dissatisfied with this result. She arranged for Elder Wang to go to Jiangnan with her, just to arrange an eyeliner. It has been almost a month now, and there is not even a response.

Frost's pretty face involuntarily revealed a terrifying aura, which made Eunuch Cao so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe.

In the past, he relied on being a little master and could bear the aura of a noble concubine.

But now that the imperial concubine's martial arts has returned to its peak, or even improved, let alone a slight chill from her hands is unbearable.

"A bunch of trash!"

The imperial concubine glanced coldly at Eunuch Cao and the others, but withdrew her gaze.

At the same time, she frowned slightly as if there was something she couldn't let go of. Eunuch Cao boldly asked after finding out from the side, "Is your empress worried about Your Highness?"

"Shou'er is guarded by Xi'er and Elder Wang, but that bitch..."

Who is her deadly enemy, what will she do, and what methods will she use to keep her from sleeping and eating, and now she realizes that the envoy of the imperial city, Li Changshou's confidant Gu Fan, is actually the son of that woman?
"Who was it back then?"

It was not the first time that the imperial concubine saw Gu Fan, and she didn't think much about him without knowing his background.

After learning about it now, she always feels like a stick in her throat, and there is one more thing that makes her very concerned, "Eunuch Cao, do you think Gu Fan's face looks familiar?"

I didn't find out about Gu Fan's background before, and the reason is very simple. Although Gu Fan's appearance is good, he doesn't quite resemble his mother.

So the imperial concubine didn't realize whose son he was.

Even now, the imperial concubine was observing in secret, but she found that Gu Fan's appearance made her feel a little familiar, but she didn't know when she saw it for a while.

"Your Majesty, this old servant also feels a little familiar."

Eunuch Cao thought he was the only one, but now even the imperial concubine thinks so, and immediately realized something was wrong.

But then he smiled wryly and shook his head, "But the old slave has ordered people to investigate for many years. The identity of that person has always been a mystery. All suspicious people have been investigated, but there is no clue at all."

What happened back then was very complicated!

The Demon Sect first arranged for Gu Xiaoya to enter the palace as a pawn to control Emperor Qianming, but the latter was very rebellious and did not hesitate to betray the Demon Sect to marry early. Originally, he married Xiao Pang as his wife, but who would have thought that in the bridal chamber? Xiao Pang was beaten unconscious on the night of the flower candle, and finally a mysterious man picked the peaches.

For so many years, not only Gu Xiaoya couldn't let go of what happened back then, but even the Demon Sect actually wanted to find out who it was!

After all, daring to destroy the Demon Sect is a good thing!
……

In the East China Sea, the endless sea is calm and calm.

It is far away from the land, and even experienced fishermen will not come to this sea area. The distance of more than 1000 nautical miles often hides unpredictable dangers.

And in this sea area, there is an island.

Different from other isolated islands in the sea, this island covers an area of ​​more than [-] square kilometers, surrounded by large and small islands.

The island is full of birds and flowers, green mountains and green waters. One of the peaks stands in the center of the island and has not erupted for hundreds of years.

However, on this island that seems to be more than 1000 nautical miles away from the mainland, there are still people.

The palaces and houses are well arranged, faintly like a paradise.

Accompanied by the sound of piercing through the air, a beautiful figure in fluttering white clothes came back from the outside, and went directly towards the biggest palace after landing.

From time to time, you can see women of different ages in the same dress, the young ones look no more than seven or eight years old, and the older ones look like fifteen or sixteen years old.

Seeing people coming, they all stopped to salute.

"The disciple has met the elder!"

"The elder is back!"

Although these women in white are of different ages, they are all very similar in one thing.

There is no one who is not Zhong Ling and delicate, with exquisite features and good looks, even a young woman can tell that she is a beauty.

"Keep practicing."

The woman in white who came back showed a smile and signaled to the little girls to continue practicing. Her appearance was equally beautiful and her temperament was refined. Unlike the female disciples who saluted, this woman looked more mature and stable even though she was only in her 20s. .

"Yes, elder!"

The woman in white came directly to the main hall, where several other figures had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing her come back, they raised their heads and looked at her.

"There is an urgent report from the Central Plains."

The woman in white sighed softly, and the women in the hall were all dressed in white and looked like immortals, and one or two of them were beautiful women who were one of a kind in a hundred. They all showed surprise expressions when they heard the words.
