I've Got this Cannon Fodder's Back

Chapter 145 I'm under the control of this power minister

The third prince was caught off guard and raised his head in astonishment, but the prince had snatched it away in one step: "Gu Ai—you're presumptuous! I knew you had the intention of disobedience, and now your intention of treason is clearly revealed, let's see how you want to justify—" "

"Get out!"

The emperor spoke sharply, cut off the prince's words, and looked at the edict on the table, the light in his eyes fluctuated.

Gu Ai was still calm, and even patiently opened a chair for the little prince, helped him to sit down, and poured him a cup of hot tea to warm his hands.

"Gu Xiang."

The emperor fixedly stared at the closed edict, his voice hoarse: "What is this?"

Gu Ai raised his eyes to look at him, and raised his hand to open the edict, but was held down firmly by the emperor.

Just now, the emperor who was still so fierce that he seemed to be desperate had red eyes, his gaze was fixed on him, his chest heaved unceasingly, but there was already a faint fear in his eyes.

"It's what I originally planned to bring to press the coffin."

Gu Ai lowered his gaze, his tone was so calm that there was no fluctuation at all, he handed the sword in the other hand to Lu Chengru, moved away the emperor's nearly stiff hand, and slowly unfolded the will.

"The emperor looked slowly, there are other things in the minister's hand - if the emperor thinks that he has not seen enough, the minister will naturally take them out, please appreciate the emperor carefully."

As he said that, a white jade plaque in his hand lit up in the palm of his hand.Just as he was about to spread his hands, the emperor's eyes suddenly narrowed, and his voice raised: "No need!"

That white jade tablet has a name on it,

Seventy-two members of the royal family entered the Silver Feather Guards, who appeared and disappeared with unrivaled skills, guarding the peace of the royal family, and only obeyed the orders of the Silver Feather.

All successive emperors would wear this silver feather order close to their bodies in case of emergency.It's fine if you meet someone who steals secretly, the Silver Feather Guards are not so ignorant that they listen to everyone, but this time it is Gu Ai who is holding the Silver Feather Order.

This Silver Feather Token has never been found since the late Emperor passed away. Everyone thought it was accidentally lost, but they never expected that it was always in the hands of the chief minister of the dynasty.

Gu Ai paused, gave the emperor a meaningful look, and retracted his sleeves to put away the jade plaque.

In addition to these, he also has a whole family of elite soldiers in his hands - although he can be easily tied to the ground by the young prince, but if he fights with the Imperial Forest Army, he will not lose any advantage.

The first emperor did give him enough means to save his life when he left.

Originally, these were not brought out because the new law always needs a worshiper.He is an official who compiles new laws. Whether these laws are reasonable, whether he deliberately left loopholes for himself to exploit when he compiled them, and whether he has left a back door with selfish intentions, even if no one dares to speak out, these doubts It will still be entrenched in the hearts of many people.

The reason why Gu Ai didn't care about asking the emperor to drive tigers and wolfs away and use the hands of the aristocratic family to get rid of him was not only because he was worried that the aristocratic family's direct attack on the imperial power might shake the foundation, but also for the final success of the reform.

If all the writers of the new law die because of the new law, the dignity of the law will be unshakable, and his blood will become the most solid foundation for pouring the new law.

Gu Ai originally planned to do this.

The emperor finally began to feel uneasy. Looking at Gu Ai's still calm expression, his throat stagnated for a while, and finally he said in a hoarse voice: "What do you want? You clearly -"

Obviously nothing happened at first.

He took advantage of the power of the family to attack him, but he really didn't say a word.Although the two sides are hostile, they seem to act out a big drama together with a tacit understanding. Each of them will go on as expected by the other side, and they can also predict the development and changes in the future.

After Shoufu was killed in the street, he would take advantage of public anger to get rid of the aristocratic family in one fell swoop, and the reform would be completely accomplished.

Gu Ai should understand and agree with him.

The emperor's face became paler, his eyes fixed on Gu Ai, and then he looked at the little emperor uncle whom he didn't even pay much attention to.

——Ever since these two people met, all the plans that were originally set have come to nothing.Gu Ai has become more rebellious and rebellious, and he is no longer the pure minister who was so square that he could hardly understand the authority. He even took out the imperial edict ordering him to sit in Zen...

Can't move.

Gu Ai's Achilles' heel lies in Lu Chengru.The first time he touched Lu Chengru, he forced the other party to stand by and stop meddling in the affairs of the court.The second time he touched Lu Chengru, he actually forced out this will that no one had ever seen before, a silver feather token that he thought was absent.

If there is a third time, what will he be asked to take out?

The emperor was no longer as angry as before, he closed his eyes in silence, and slowly read the edict, but suddenly some inexplicable thoughts came to his mind, and he suddenly raised his head to look at Gu Ai.

Gu Ai met his gaze, remained silent for a moment, but still didn't speak, just leaned over and put away the imperial edict that was enough to abolish the emperor, and put it back in his sleeve.

Although this new emperor is narrow-minded, he is not stupid or dull.

Originally, the first emperor was not optimistic about this successor son, but he really didn't have any more talents to make - and the reason why the new emperor was able to ascend the throne at that time was more due to Gu Ai's proposition and persuasion that completely ignored the past.The way he was exiled back then, the reason why he was able to return to Beijing safely was all thanks to the secret support of Gu Ai's people.

He never mentioned these things when he was determined to die, and he has already reached this point, it seems that it is really meaningless for the emperor to know about these things.

Gu Ai lowered his gaze, gave him a little bow, and led Lu Chengru out.

"Gu Ai! You dare to be arrogant with an edict that you don't know the authenticity of, who gave you the courage?"

The prince had never seen such a posture before, his eyes widened in astonishment.Seeing that his father was also looking disheartened, he felt even more unbelievable, couldn't help but raised his eyebrows, and yelled angrily.

"I really think you are someone who can't live without...Since ancient times, there has been no reason for a minister to abolish a king! Hurry up and kneel down to plead guilty, and you can still spare your life, otherwise don't blame Gu-"

The prince's voice stopped abruptly, and the sharp sword was already on his neck.

Lu Cheng was dressed in ragged clothes, but his figure was still tall and clear. He held his sword against him, and forced the rest of the scolding back.

"Uncle!"

The emperor's expression changed, knowing that it might not be useful to talk to Lu Chengru, he turned to the side Gu Ai, gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I am Zen, I still need time to deal with it... The crown prince is the prince of the country, please Gu Ai." Raise your hands high..."

"Today's impeachment in court is not a fiction."

Gu Ai spoke softly, with a calm tone, and his eyes fell on the prince's face that changed color instantly.

"On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, the prince sold the fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Rites and got 9000 taels of silver."

"On the ninth day of February, the prince secretly coerced law enforcement officials to secretly replace the death row prisoners. He received 5000 taels of silver, a glass bottle, and twelve paintings and calligraphy."

"On February 21, the crown prince came forward to negotiate with the Ministry of Punishment and exempted 15 people in the government from punishment."

……

The imperial study room was dead silent, only Gu Ai's unhurried voice continued.

He had obviously been a shopkeeper for a while who ignored everything, and everyone thought he was really disheartened, and no one expected him to speak clearly at this time.Even the aristocratic family, who were planning to impeach the prince, failed to understand these secrets so clearly and meticulously.

The prince was stunned on the spot, met the emperor's astonished gaze, felt deep remorse in his heart, gritted his teeth and leaned over to apologize: "Father, my son—"

"shut up."

The emperor's voice was already low and hoarse, he took a deep look at the prince, then turned his gaze back to Ai, his shoulders were completely slumped: "I understand...Please come back, Mr. Gu, and give me three days."

Gu Ai not only has an imperial edict in his hands, but also 72 top-notch Silver Feather Guards, hundreds of elite soldiers who even he doesn't know the number of, have the hearts of the people, and Lu Chengru.

The reason why he was able to take revenge for a time was only because Gu Ai himself didn't want to live.

Making trouble until the palace is forced to remonstrate, and the royal family loses all face, it will not change the final result in any way.

The emperor slowly slid down and sat down, his eyes were already devastated.

Gu Ai stopped talking, raised his hand to stroke Lu Chengru's shoulder, motioned the little prince to put away his sword, and walked out of the imperial study together.

The Silver Feather Guard did not stop him.

The carriage was still waiting in place, and the fine steel arrows were still firmly attached to the carriage.

Although the little prince didn't suffer any injuries, after all, he was beaten for a long time by a group of serious masters, and the clothes on his body were already torn and mottled.Gu Ai took off his robe and put it on for him, let the carriage drive forward, and took people to check his body carefully.

Lu Deng obediently leaned in his arms, looked up at the still calm expression of Yichao Shoufu, couldn't help turning back, helped him by the shoulders and straightened up: "Sir..."

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Gu Ai embraced him, shook his head with a smile, cupped the young prince's delicate cheeks with one hand, and fixed his eyes on him quietly: "Chengru, today's incident happened suddenly, I haven't had time to ask about it. Do you want to—"

"Do not want to."

Before he could ask, the little prince shook his head without hesitation: "The third prince is fine."

When the emperor wanted to turn on the lights in the third watch and the chicken in the fifth watch, he crawled out of the steaming bed early in the morning, and when he got up late, he had to go to the morning court hungry, and he had to approve an unknown number of memorial documents.

Even if it wasn't because the main mission line couldn't be changed, Lu Deng and the system in his mind still shook their heads like rattles together.

Gu Ai slightly opened his eyes wide, seeing the sincere dislike of the young prince, the smile in his eyes grew stronger.The coldness accumulated in the imperial study room was completely dissipated, he wrapped the man in his robe and hugged him, took out a piece of nougat and fed it to him.

"With this edict, I will not be able to stay in the court any longer... A courtier abolishing the emperor, no matter what, is a crime of treason and immorality, and I will be exiled for three thousand miles."

The edict of the abolished emperor has always been a double-edged sword.For the sake of the royal family's face, Gu Ai will not really make the edict public in the end, the emperor can only find an excuse to abdicate.But after such a toss, the chief assistant who personally forced the emperor back became the biggest threat to the new emperor.

Although people who want to be the new emperor probably don't have such thoughts, but they always have to avoid suspicion.After all, imperial power cannot be provoked. Since Gu Ai made a move, he was already prepared to pay the price.

When Lu Deng heard the exile, his heart skipped a beat. He straightened his shoulders and grabbed his arm tightly: "I will accompany you, sir."

"I didn't intend to bombard you."

Gu Ai patted him with a smile, clearly talking about the important event of exile, but still did not appear depressed at all, but smiled and said unhurriedly: "It said it was three thousand miles, but it didn't say how to go."

Lu Deng was slightly startled, and stared at him with wide eyes.

"I have been studying since I was a child, and I have made my home all over the world... Three thousand miles is not enough to travel all the places I have traveled."

Gu Ai was very happy to see his surprised expression, touched the tips of the little prince's ears that were red with excitement, and said patiently: "Chengru, do you want to go out for a walk?"

walk around!

Three thousand miles can't be finished!

The worry was swept away immediately, Lu Deng sat up straight suddenly, and raised his hand to grab his arm.

He has never stayed in such a traditional ancient world. He has stayed in the mansion since he came here. He finally got out of the high walls of the palace, but he can only walk around in the capital. Now every place is so familiar that it has lost its freshness. .Now that I hear that I can go on a long-distance travel, and I can play as long as I want, and go wherever I want, my eyes are full of anticipation.

Meeting his gaze, Gu Ai couldn't help but smile, and tapped his forehead with her fingers.

"When the three thousand miles of exile are over, we will continue our study tour. After all, it is more bitter than in the palace, but there are also many interesting things--the best fried tea in the south, and crab meat steamed buns, hibiscus sugar cakes in the east. Fresh fish, made with orange and crab meat to make new fermented wine. There are more delicious dishes in Hangzhou, not to mention the main dishes, preserved apricot cheese and fruit, steamed with fresh locust buds, and the auxiliary wheat core noodles are the best... "

It doesn't sound like study tour at all.

Lu Deng was fascinated when he heard it, and almost wanted to go out to play immediately, but he grabbed his sleeve and refused to let go.

Gu Ai looked at him with a smile, her heart moved lightly, and put a lock of hair behind him, her voice gradually softened: "Wait a few more years, the little prince will grow up..."

Still thinking about all kinds of delicacies mentioned earlier, Lu Dengxun raised his head, but Gu Ai just smiled at him and closed his robe for him.

"Nothing. If you want to go out and play with peace of mind, there is still something you have to do - the prince is also unbearable now, and the third prince has been hiding his power for many years, and his disposition is not bad, but he is not self-motivated, and he has to find a way to motivate him." .”

When the little prince grows up, he can go to Jiming Temple to worship together, and ask for the red rope of marriage to tie people firmly.

Gu Ai didn't express his thoughts, but just rubbed the little prince's forehead hair with a smile: "In order for us to be exiled for three thousand miles smoothly, we have to convince the third prince as soon as possible and tell him to cheer up as soon as possible."

While speaking, the carriage stopped unconsciously.

Gu Ai led Lu Chengru up and got out of the car, and the servants came up to meet him, but he didn't dare to raise the curtain in a hurry, instead he knocked three times tremblingly outside the car.

Gu Ai raised her eyebrows, not paying attention to the fleeting bewilderment, opened the curtain by herself, and helped Lu Cheng get out of the car.

Seeing the young prince came down in disheveled clothes, everyone in the Xiangfu knew it, and they all bowed their heads and walked quickly, with solemn and expressionless faces.

……

Gu Ai frowned blankly, led the little prince back to the bedroom to change clothes, and locked the door tightly.

Recently, Xiangfu has been getting weirder and weirder.

In the evening of the next day, the Third Prince really came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to report.

The Prime Minister, who had not planned to be a gentleman for a long time, was washing his hands and making soup in the kitchen. The little prince was led to the study by his subordinates, and saw the third prince lying on the table, with two dark circles under his eyes, listlessly sucking in the leftovers from yesterday. Under the peach stuffed.

Lu Deng paused at his feet, and whispered to his subordinates: "Go and warm up a bowl of stuffed dumplings, and serve them with pagoda dishes."

The subordinate officer looked strange, saying that he turned around to find someone to prepare, when Lu Deng entered the door, the third prince happened to drink up the last drop, and looked up at him listlessly.

"It's so hot-what's the matter, will this affect your evaluation?"

Both of them came for the exam, and Lu Deng also vaguely knew that the protagonist's task was to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. Seeing the third prince's expression of ashes, he couldn't help but feel a little worried, so he hurried over and asked in a soft voice.

The third prince shook his head quickly: "I can't do evaluation."

Not only would he not, but he was rewarded with a small red flower by the system because he ascended the throne very quickly, which was much faster than the scheduled progress.

The third prince who was lying down was not happy, he lay on the table and sighed heavily: "My system told me that when you become an emperor, you must pay attention to your image, you can't eat nonsense, you can't be too fat, and you listed it for me." A personal training list, jumping [-] ropes, doing [-] sit-ups every day, in order not to let the guards find out, you have to run around the imperial city three times in the middle of the night..."

Lu Deng: ...

The protagonist's system is really strict.

Everyone's system has a unique personality and self-awareness, and the other party's system obviously has a bad temper.Lu Deng pondered for a while, but let go of the idea of ​​reminding the protagonist that ancient emperors also had many fat people.

Probably the emperor who is gentle, indifferent, carefree and unrestrained cannot live without his image.

After all, the other party is the only hope for the two of them to be exiled. Lu Deng said a few words of comfort, walked to the door and brought back the stuffed dumplings that the servants had warmed up, and put them lightly on the table: "Then you can make more money while you are not enthroned." Eat some……"

"I can only eat half a portion of a meal in the palace now, and I can only hold three chopsticks in a dish!"

The third prince was full of grief and indignation, sobbing and stuffing stuffed dumplings into his mouth, he grabbed him: "Can your family cook an extra meal? I come here when I'm hungry. After all, you are a domineering prince. It's my uncle, if I don't eat you might hit me..."

The third prince became more and more sad as he talked, he pushed away the empty bowl and gave up on himself: "If you don't give me money, I might as well not be the emperor!"

Lu Deng was startled, and stared at him with wide eyes.

The two still want to go out for a study tour.He is not good at lying, so he didn't know whether he should tell such shocking truth, and he was afraid that the other party would be really angry and not follow the plot. When he was in a dilemma, Gu Ai's smiling voice sounded from the door.

"Third Prince, don't worry, as long as Gu Ai stays in Beijing for a day, His Highness can still afford to eat."

"gentlemen!"

Lu Deng's eyes lit up, and he ran over quickly to take the steaming fried noodles with shredded chicken and salt in his hand.

Gu Ai blinked at him with a smile, bowed to the third prince, and said solemnly: "Your Highness, please take the country as the most important thing. The new law has not yet been completed, and the heavy burden is on your shoulders. Now that the foundation of the family is shaken, it is the right time, and you can't let it go to waste for a day... "

"Don't worry, Gu Xiang. Lu Liang guarantees with his life that this matter will never be left alone."

As soon as he talked about the business, the third prince couldn't help but look solemn, he no longer wanted to entangle with Lu Deng, and hurriedly stood up and saluted him: "Lu Liang people are soft-spoken and lack of knowledge, please help me."

Gu Ai smiled and nodded calmly.He winked to signal the little prince to eat quickly, gathered his clothes and sat down, laid out a pen and paper, and explained the details of the new law with the third prince.

The laws of a country are extremely complicated and complicated, and it is impossible to finish it in a while.Gu Ai has been preparing for many days, and originally planned to teach with all his money, and he spoke carefully and with all his heart. Naturally, the third prince did not dare to let him down. He listened intently, bowed his head and took detailed notes.

The third prince listened for the whole night.

The third prince was taken back to the palace by the guards in the palace.

Under the strict supervision of the system, the third prince, who will succeed tomorrow, ran around the imperial city whimpering.

The author has something to say: [-]. Lying down and walking the plot. Emperor. Protagonist. Son: Donkey me!Everyone don't like me!
