Reborn Bastard Supreme

The girl realized that something might be very important. Gu Zhisu was still evaluating whether she was worthy of being brought into the palace. She was not unintelligent, but most of the time she didn't want to think too much. Seeing Gu Zhisu's expression at this moment, she couldn't help With a bit of stubbornness, he slightly raised his chin and said, "I'll do what you say, anyway, as long as you bring me into the palace, I can help you with anything related to Gu poison!", "Okay. Gu Zhisu looked at her for a while, then finally nodded and said, "Since you are so confident, I will tell you later what you should do. You are not allowed to ask me anything else, can you do it?" "

The girl quickly nodded yes, walked up to Gu Zhisu, turned her head to listen to him, rolled her eyes, and replied with a smile: "It's nothing difficult, when the time comes, I'll just do what you say."

Gu Zhisu raised his eyebrows, looked at her with a smile and said, "Then, it's a deal?"

"A word is settled!"

Hearing the girl thumping downstairs, Murong Yi sat down beside him, took a sip of warm tea with his head down, and was just about to make fun of Gu Zhisu and the girl with a smile on his face. Seeing that Gu Zhisu put down the teacup in his hand, he raised an eyebrow at him with interest, and motioned him to look behind him.

Murong Yi followed his gaze and turned around, just in time to see the secret door behind it that had just been closed, and suddenly turned slowly again, the person who came out of it this time was a man in blue long clothes and white light armor, with a firm and handsome face Xiao Ye.

The moment he saw Xiao Ye, Murong Yi suddenly turned around and looked at him with burning eyes: "Did you ask him to come?"

"Not bad." The teacup in Gu Zhisu's hand stopped, and the lid of the cup clicked lightly, and it fell on the table. There was a smile on the corners of his brows and lips, and his eyes circled between the two of them, very nervous. He quickly lowered his eyes and stopped looking, "His Majesty's moon banquet is coming soon, the three of us will meet each other—seeing your appearance, you are not surprised at all, I must have met you, Brother Xiao, probably, right? "

Before his words fell, Xiao Ye had already walked to the two of them, hesitating for a moment, and then simply said bluntly: "When I came back from the border, I specially met Murong."

Gu Zhisu could see that Murong Yi's cheeks were slightly flushed after he mentioned the meeting, and his eyes became a little evasive. Thinking of Xin Yuan'an, who hadn't seen him for a long time, his fingers unconsciously clenched the teacup more and more, and it took a long time to recover. Smiling, he looked at the two people beside him and said, "About the matter of the moon banquet, is Brother Xiao ready?"

"The private army has already entered the city in disguise. A few thousand people should be enough. You should be careful." Mentioning the moon banquet that was already raging under the tide before it even started, Xiao Ye's eyes suddenly darkened, and his fingers unconsciously Gripping the hilt of the sword tightly, looking at Murong Yi in front of him, he said, "I will be outside the city at that time, waiting for your news."

After the words fell, he took out a sapphire letter talisman and handed it to Gu Zhisu: "This is the letter talisman to control the private army."

Gu Zhisu knew that this private army was not only brought back by Xiao Ye, but also by Xin Yuan'an who stayed in Mingdu. The combination of the two parties would be safe, so he slid his fingertips over the writing on the letter, but handed it over to Looking at Murong Yi, he whispered with a smile in his eyes: "The person commanding this private army should be Brother Murong."

Murong Yi didn't expect that he would hand it to him, and was a little dazed for a moment, looked up to see that Gu Zhisu didn't intend to take it back, and then hesitantly took it after a long time: "You can lead troops to fight, I don't understand these things—"" A lot of people are staring at me, it's safer for brother Murong to hold the soldier talisman." Gu Zhisu shook his head, watched him take the soldier talisman, his eyes darkened a bit, looked at Xiao Ye with a smile, and added He said, "What's more, Brother Murong is not the only one who uses this military talisman, so don't worry too much."

When Xiao Ye noticed his gaze sweeping over, he couldn't help lowering his head and coughing for a while, and looked away from Murong Yi to look at his eyes, then lowered his head and said softly: "That's right, my deputy will be by your side when the time comes, and help you order Generals."

Murong Yi clenched the letter talisman in his hand, and glanced at the person sitting beside him, who seemed to be a little embarrassed, his gaze became a little more smiling, but quickly turned into the usual peace: "Since you said so, I I had no choice but to accept it.”

Seeing that he had put away the things, Xiao Ye straightened up with a serious face, took out something from his sleeve, did not pass it to the two of them, but placed it on the table, let them see it clearly: " As for the garrison outside the city, I have informed my father and brought this thing over."

Gu Zhisu fixedly looked at the things he put on the table, and thought of the many schemes passed to him by Xin Linhua by that man in Baojun Wangfu a few days ago, including the one of forging military symbols to deceive the army, the smile on the corners of his lips became more profound. .

"In that case, we will only wait for that day."

Several people finalized the matter in low voices, Xiao Ye got up to say goodbye, and left through the secret passage again, Murong thought for a moment, and felt that there was nothing missing, just about to walk to the railing to see how the girl was playing, when he saw Gu Zhisu stood up, walked slowly to the carved window, and raised the eaves of the window slightly with his fingers. Outside the theater was the alley of Mingdu, and the sound of hawking could be heard faintly. People, as if they didn't see anything.

The light outside the window illuminated half of his face, and the corners of his lips that were originally raised did not know when to let go. His plain face was like a statue. After the light was illuminated, he appeared abnormally silent, as if he was a little lonely, or could not be separated from others. Speaking of fear.

Seeking to usurp the throne.

Even if the former emperor is still alive, that supreme seat will never fall on the head of the person who wants to fall.

So you can only grab, only snatch.

Murong Yi turned her head to look at him for a while, and finally walked up slowly behind him, raised her hand to hold his shoulder, opened her mouth but didn't make a sound, Gu Zhisu was suddenly touched by him, but turned back instantly Suddenly, he let go of his hand lightly, let the window frame close again, turned around and said in a low voice.

"Chang'an still has a dark son in the court, but he is in southern Xinjiang. I don't know if he will be able to come back on the day of the moon banquet. I will be grateful, if one is not good, if the emperor finds out his thoughts, our situation will be dangerous, not to mention that there is a queen mother behind him, it will be even more thankless."

As the most important person for such a big event, Xin Yuan'an was not in Mingdu. No matter how safe they were, it would be nothing but empty talk in the end if there was no successor to the throne.

Murong Yi could understand his state of mind, and after thinking about it, she felt something was wrong: "After such a long time, we'll just let it go, you haven't heard from His Highness?"

"I have received it." In the dark room, his eyes also dimmed, and he answered in a low voice after a long time, "But it is also a report of safety. Southern Xinjiang is far away from Ming Dynasty, and it takes a long time to go back and forth. I can't be sure how long the letter was in my hands, at first there was a letter declaring safety, but then it disappeared for some reason, and to this day I don't know where he is now, and what happened to him."

Murong Yi quickly understood what he meant, that he was saying that Xin Yuan'an hadn't written for a long time, maybe something happened on the way back, so he couldn't help frowning slightly.

King Baojun's plan for this moon banquet is to seize the throne and eliminate dissidents. The plan is very careful. Even if Xin Yuan'an is far away in southern Xinjiang, he may send people to plot against him. If he is unprepared, will Xin Yuan'an have an accident? It's hard to tell.

He turned his mind around a few times, sighed very lightly, and lowered his voice to comfort him: "Don't worry, with His Highness's skill and mind, no matter what happens, he will be safe and sound."

Gu Zhisu also knew that it was useless to worry at this time, and he had sent Qionghua to the southern border to inquire about that person a few days ago, and he twirled his fingers unconsciously in his sleeve: "I hope so."

At the grand court meeting on the day of the new emperor's ascension to the throne, the eunuch Xuanzhi read out the emperor's will to hold a night banquet in accordance with the usual practice. Officials of the fifth rank and above in Mingdu, as well as all clan royal families and family members, came together in the evening of the same day to meet the new emperor. As well as the empress dowager, the new emperor's throne can be considered secure.

In the evening, the carriages of the officials in Mingdu headed towards the palace in order. Many dignitaries and dignitaries of Mingdu, led by the eunuchs who had been waiting in front of the palace early, and the maids who specially picked up their families, went to the palace. Walking to the place where the new emperor had his first big banquet, it didn't take a moment to see the Taiye Hall behind the Yizheng Hall, where tables, chairs, drinks and drinks were already set up, waiting for many ministers and relatives to attend.

It was getting late, and a group of lantern-carrying maids filed in from the hall, lit fireworks on the oil lamps held in their mouths on the copper bird's beak behind the table, and then bowed and retreated quickly.

Gu Zhisu is already a member of the Hanlin Academy, and he has been pretending to be sick in the mansion, so when he came here today, no one in the Gu family informed him that he was going to attend the banquet today. , didn't remind him anything, as if he wanted to see him miss the banquet, and then the emperor sentenced him to a crime of disrespect after hearing the news.

Unfortunately, he didn't do what they wanted.

Entering the hall together with Murong Yi, Gu Zhisu still pretended to be in the mansion, with a pale and sickly appearance, his eyes swept across the hall without a trace, and he saw Xin Linhua sitting at the head, lowering his head and talking to the people around him, opposite him It was Wing King Gu Wenmian, looking down at the teacup in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.

Murong Yi quickly found his place, and Gu Zhisu didn't want to follow Gu Wenmian, so he simply sat down beside him, the two of them said a few words in a low voice, and then they heard the purple-robed eunuch on the steps flick the tip of his whisk shouted.

"The emperor is here! The queen mother is here!"
