"Gu Xichao! I treat you well, why do you do such a thing? The crown prince is young, he respects you so much, yet you use him to rebel in his name, what is your intention!"

Gu Xichao's hands were tied behind his back, and he knelt on the Wende Hall.

A porcelain cup was ruthlessly thrown onto Gu Xichao's head, and a trace of blood was instantly stained on his forehead.

"The humble minister was wronged."

Gu Xichao closed her eyes and said lightly.

"You are wronged? What face do you have to say that you are wronged!"

"Your Majesty, do you know that you have been poisoned?"

Gu Xichao lowered her eyebrows, and the muscles at the corners of her mouth twitched, revealing a slightly mocking smile.

But with a bit of sadness, as if accusing the person in front of him of being ignorant of people, or lamenting that he was not good at meeting people.

The emperor felt a bit harsh in his eyes, but Gu Xichao's words made his heart tense, and he hurriedly asked, "What poison?"

"I don't know, but I just felt that there was something wrong with the maid who brought you food the day before yesterday, so I slipped out to investigate."

"Empty words are useless!"

The emperor scolded him angrily, he felt that he was played by Gu Xichao, but after thinking about it, after all, this matter was related to his own life, so he couldn't help asking: "Then why didn't you tell me yesterday?"

"Of course I'm afraid that the villain will turn black and white."

Gu Xichao looked at Liu Jie.

"Stop talking nonsense, little thief!"

Liu Jie immediately stood up, blushing, as if he had really been wronged.

"If the emperor can't do it, then just wait, someone will come to prove my innocence later."

It seemed that he was infected by Gu Xichao's calmness, and even the emperor was a little suspicious.

"Who?"

"Shenhou Mansion."

Gu Xichao faintly uttered three words. In fact, he didn't know whether the news had been delivered to Wu Qing, and he just said it for a gamble, but as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Liu Jie's face change.

Gu Xichao was taken aback for a moment, and a stone that was hanging high in his heart fell to the ground in an instant.

From fake calm to real calm.

But Liu Jie's expression on the side became more and more ugly. He lowered his head and stared at a small piece of ground in front of him, his eyes full of struggle.

Gu Xi narrowed her eyes, feeling that the situation might be better than she imagined, and seeing Liu Jie's expression, he obviously couldn't control the development of the situation.

In other words, ruthless they are coming.

In fact, Wuqing and the others have already arrived at the gate of the palace, and they will be able to see Gu Xichao in a quarter of an hour.

Relying on the cover of Wuqing and the others, Chasing Life originally wanted to go straight to the palace, but was yelled back by Wuqing.

Obediently turned to find Chu Liuxiang.

After all, all they got was the word "Jun Wei", and they didn't know what exactly happened to Gu Xichao in the palace. If they wanted to tell the emperor about the whole story, they would have to bring Chu Liuxiang with them.

But in addition to this, there is another consideration for ruthlessness.

The series of things that have happened in Beijing recently are full of weirdness, as if to deliberately attract their attention, but Wuqing feels strange, but he can't think of the reason for doing so.

It wasn't until the news that Gu Xichao worked so hard to convey that he suddenly realized that these seemingly trivial things were actually inextricably linked to Liu Jie's rebellion.

Since the incident of Ye Gucheng and Cai Jin, the number of patrol guards in the palace has increased a lot, and a set of investigation mechanism has been established, so that people from the Six Doors and Shenhou Mansion will regularly take turns to check whether there are any people in the palace. Suspicious quack.

It's just that because of the frequent occurrence of strange things in the capital recently, the Six Doors and the Shenhou Mansion couldn't take care of them, so they asked their subordinates to handle this matter.

Now that I think about it, this series of petty thefts might just be to make them inexperienced, so that they could take the opportunity to let assassins get in.

It is not impossible to let Chu Liuxiang enter the palace alone to face the saint, but the emperor does not know Chu Liuxiang, in order to prevent him from being labeled as an assassin, Zhui Ming must take him with him.

It’s just that Liu Jie will only set up an ambush in the Shenhou Mansion. After all, there are accidents. If you want to prevent them from entering the palace, setting up an ambush near the palace is the best place. First, this is their destination. The Queen of the Palace must have experienced a fierce battle, and they may not be able to fight back in the face of the second round of attacks.

It's just that, if Zhui Ming brings Chu Liuxiang into the palace, it will undoubtedly disperse his combat power. After thinking about it ruthlessly, he thinks it's better to fight together with Chu Liuxiang one by one.

But what they didn't expect was that when those masked men saw Chu Liuxiang, the movements in their hands slowed down, and finally they stopped and gathered together. With a trace of hesitation.

"I wonder if there is anything you need our help with?"

Wuqing felt that things had turned around, so he asked.

"Chu Liuxiang, let me ask you," at this moment, a tall man said, "That day your mistress said that the worm on us has a solution, but is it true?"

mistress? ? ?

Except for Jiang Fu, everyone turned their heads to look at Chu Liuxiang, with question marks and exclamation marks on their heads.

This group of Jianghu people is the group that attacked Yu Ze the night before. Yu Ze provoked them that day and planted a seed in their hearts. Although Yu Ze is nowhere to be seen now, they know Chu Liuxiang. With the momentum of one man guarding the gate and ten thousand men not opening, he directly rescued the person.

Tsk tsk tsk, that face is cold.

Those who are not familiar with it will think Ximen Chuuxue at first glance.

The person who made the sound felt that he had seen the truth, but the next moment he was knocked on the head.

"What nonsense, that's obviously brother Xiangshuai!"

After finishing speaking, the man turned his face to look at Chu Liuxiang again, his tone full of apology.

"I'm sorry Xiangshuai, it's all right for this person to have his sleeve broken, but everyone looks like a broken sleeve."

The wind is calm and the trees are still.

For a moment, Chu Liuxiang, who was saluted by countless eyes, touched his nose, showing embarrassment.

But there was no rebuttal.

No... refute...

So everyone's heads turned into exclamation marks.

If it weren't for the urgent situation now, Zhui Ming would have wanted to grab Chu Liuxiang and question him for three days and three nights.

Under the name Yu Ze, even gender doesn't matter.

That's Yu Ze.

That painting, which must be rough but exquisite with others, is still placed in the heartless room.

Zhuiming felt that even if he dreamed that these two people would not get together.

This feeling is like seeing Zhuge Xiaohua and Cai Jin chatting happily one day.

Zhui Ming was frightened by his own imagination and shivered.

After the embarrassment of that side, Chu Liuxiang accepted everyone's shocked, dazed and suspicious gazes extremely calmly.

He smiled slightly, and pulled Jiang Fu over behind him.

"I can't help it, but this girl can."

So it was Jiang Fu who received the attention and ceremony.

"she?"

The leader asked suspiciously.

"Yes, it's just me."

Jiang Fu's complexion turned ugly in an instant, because she was short, didn't know martial arts, and was a girl, so she often heard this questionable word when she went down the mountain to practice.

Hearing that she was all irritable.

But since there is no time to break up with them at this time.

So Jiang Fu just picked out her ears, and said lazily: "I can indeed save you, hey, don't rush to do it, I didn't lie to you."

She raised her eyebrows and made a blocking gesture.

"But you should think clearly before you do it. Do you know what the person inside is doing?"

She waved her right hand and pointed at the imperial city.

"He wants to rebel, and you have to follow him to be the traitor. Let me tell you, there is an official, a scholar who has no power to restrain a chicken, but he would rather die than give us news, everyone. They are all well-known heroes, so the blood is not inferior to him, right?"

Jiang Fu mocked.

"Now, we have all the evidence about the treason. As long as they enter the palace and present it to the emperor, the rebels and their accomplices will not be able to make any waves."

At this moment, Ruthless spoke.

His expression was calm, as if everything was under control.

How many people in the world have heard of the name of Shenhou Mansion.

The men in black were silent at the moment, you look at me, I look at you.

Although they are forced, but if you really look into it carefully, they can also be regarded as the same party.

But they are not the kind who really follow others to rebel.

So what the result will be depends on what Ruthless said.

"You...can you really deal with that bug?"

The leader asked tentatively again.

"can!"

The man struggled on his face, took a deep breath, and got out of the way.

"and many more!"

Just when Chu Liuxiang and the others were about to rush over, he stopped them again.

"What's the matter?"

"Can we go together? He seems to have set up killers near the palace, and we can take you around."

Will it be a crime?

Ruthless suddenly thought about it, so he said with a smile: "There are too many people, five or six are enough."

So when Liu Jie, after a lot of inner struggle, planned to take control of the situation before Ruthless and the others came, he just kept on stuffing the last medicine to the emperor.

Ruthless has arrived.

With a group of people, mighty and mighty.

Chu Liuxiang threw a stone in his hand and hit his wrist, Wuqing took a step back in the wheelchair, but when he saw this, his wrist moved, and the hidden weapon shot from the wheelchair hit his calf.

"what!!!"

Liu Jie's feet softened, and he immediately knelt down.

The hidden guards who hadn't dared to act because they were concerned about the emperor's life suddenly surged up and pressed him to the ground fiercely.

The emperor's bright yellow shoes happened to be in front of him, Liu Jie closed his eyes, his face full of unwillingness.

Seeing this, the emperor's legs softened, and he sat down on the stool behind him.

"Fortunately, you came in time..."

He leaned back in the chair and wiped the sweat off his brow with his hands.

Then his complexion changed, he gave Liu Jie a disgusted look, and raised his voice, "Come on! Put this person down!"

"Your Majesty, you can think clearly!"

Liu Jie knelt on the ground, looked up at the emperor, and tried his best, but the three hidden guards couldn't pull him up no matter what.

"I am the only one in the court who can take action on the battlefield now! If you kill me, you will wait for the iron hooves of the barbarians to break through the capital, and ask your old Zhao family to serve those barbarians as cattle and horses, as slaves and handmaidens Bar!"

"you……!"

The emperor pointed at Liu Jie's hand trembling uncontrollably. He glanced at Gu Xichao who was kneeling beside him, and suddenly thought of something in his mind, so he immediately said as if grabbing a life-saving straw:

"I heard that Gu Aiqing wrote "Seven Strategies" back then, and Zhuge Zheng and I praised it many times. Do you really think that the frontier can't do without you? I will now make Gu Aiqing the general of Zhenyuan! Talented people come forth in large numbers, you are nothing more than dust under my feet, and you dare to speak nonsense here!"

Liu Jie was taken aback when he heard this, his chest heaved violently a few times, and a mouthful of blood spewed out, and his face suddenly showed a bit of ashes.

"Get out of here!"

The emperor waved his hand, and the hidden guards at the side immediately pushed him to go out.

Liu Jie's foot was injured and he couldn't walk fast, a few strands of hair fell down between pushing and shoving, and against his ashen complexion, he looked extraordinarily desolate, but even so, he still didn't forget to look back at the emperor's heart. Draw a knife.

"Your Majesty," there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and there was a hint of sternness in his eyes, "The poison will take five days to take effect. Although you are still short of the last time, but relying on the previous few times, you can't live for three years! I Waiting for you underground!"

Liu Jie burst out laughing suddenly, a few strands of hair were hanging in front of his eyes, showing a bit of madness.

"You are indecisive, indulge in pleasure, and make the people miserable. If the heavens had eyes, they would have let you go down to meet Emperor Taizong! Fortunately, there are still three years! Only three years! Zhao Zhe, I am waiting for you underground!"

"You-don't be late for General Ben! Hahaha!"

"Bastard! Bastard!"

The emperor swept away the utensils on the table with a wave of his hand.

There was a clatter.

Things fell to the ground immediately.

"Go! Call me the imperial physician!"

The rest of the hidden guards retreated immediately, and the Wende Hall suddenly became empty, and needles could be heard.

The emperor looked up at the golden dragon depicted on the beam, as if all his strength had been taken away, he sat down on the grand master's chair behind him.

Seeing this, Chu Liuxiang and the others withdrew without saying a word.

Only Gu Xichao, who had not been untied, was kneeling in the hall, with blood all over his face.
