After being forced to marry the prince

There is no special reason for the palace banquet. It is said that it was suggested by the prince, saying that the emperor's health is safe, so it should be a family banquet to celebrate.The emperor has always liked extravagant singing and dancing, so naturally there is no disagreement.

Although it was a family banquet, apart from a few favored princes, other nobles such as Gu Baiji were also invited.

In the past, Gu Baiji would just find a reason and refuse to go, but this time he was uncharacteristically even a little impatient, after all, it is very likely that he will see Chu Wu at the banquet.

In fact, I did see it, but the seats between Chu Wu and Gu Baiji were far away, and Gu Baiji always felt that the few people between them were like a chasm.

Chu Wu looked a little thinner, and his complexion was a little more haggard than before. The person who didn't like to talk, now sat silently beside the emperor, like a moving puppet.

The more Gu Baiji looked at it, the more distressed he became, wishing he could just stride forward and hug him in his arms to cherish him.

His gaze was so scorching, it was hard for Chu Wu not to feel it, almost with the greatest effort, Chu Wucai barely resisted the urge to look back.

With the sound of silk and bamboo, singing and dancing will also begin.A group of dancers moved gracefully into the hall.At first, a woman was covered with a veil and dressed in a purple gauze, her graceful figure could hardly be concealed.

As the veil slowly fell, the emperor, who had been in a waning mood, finally became interested.

Seeing this, Chu Jun immediately gave the woman a look. The woman seemed to be stunned for a moment, but then shyly stepped forward to bow.

Just when everyone was almost bewitched by the woman's stunning appearance, the woman suddenly moved. The silk in her arms unexpectedly concealed a soft sword as thin as a cicada's wing. In front of the emperor.

"Escort!"

"There are assassins, help!"

……

There was a panicked noise in the hall. Among the crowd, Chu Wufei quickly stood in front of the emperor. Gu Bai was so anxious that he leaped up even faster. When the soft sword pierced Chu Wu's chest, he could slap the assassin fly out.

Chu Jun frowned, although it was expected, he was still somewhat disappointed.

He turned his eyebrows and eyes, and while the emperor was in a panic, he rushed forward with the crowd, barely standing beside Chu Wu, and still made a gesture of blocking the sword for the emperor.

The assassin missed the first blow and wanted to strike again, the other guards except Gu Baiji hurried over and quickly took him down.

The emperor's assassination was originally a major event, and the twists and turns in it must be kept alive for a closer inspection. However, the assassin obviously had a plan already, and he didn't rush after being restrained. He fixed his eyes on Gu Baiji and looked behind him. Chu Wu, with sad and helpless eyes, just when everyone was feeling at a loss, the woman suddenly smiled apologetically, and said desolately and tragically:

"His Royal Highness Ke, concubine..."

Before he finished speaking, he gritted his silver teeth, swallowed the poison between the teeth, and died instantly.

After another burst of panic, all of a sudden, everyone looked at Chu Wu with suspicion and disbelief.

Although the sound of "Ke Ke" is not loud, it can still be heard clearly.

Chu Jun reacted very quickly, and before everyone could react, he ordered the left and right: "Take King Ke down!"

Chu Jungui was the heir apparent, and when he gave an order, someone responded, and soon a guard came forward, trying to restrain Chu Wu.

"Ah Jiu?" The emperor came back to his senses and was furious, "What's going on?"

Chu Wu pursed his lips. He knew that Chu Jun had finally made a move. He knew that Chu Jun was well prepared, and there would only be more evidence pointing to him in the future, but Chu Wu was still inexplicably relieved.

Sure enough, it was aimed at myself from beginning to end, and had nothing to do with others.

He finally raised his head and glanced at Gu Baiji. Seeing the man subconsciously standing in front of him and making protective movements, Chu Wu sighed softly, withdrew his nostalgic gaze, walked up to the emperor and knelt down:

"Father has learned from the lesson, my son and minister have been wronged, and I will never hurt my father's heart in the slightest!"

"Injustice?" Chu Jun sneered, "Chu Wu, as the Ninth Prince of Dazhao, you have enjoyed all the glory and wealth, why on earth do you still have such hatred in your heart? So much so that you committed this heinous crime of regicide?"

The emperor's assassination was a major event, so Chu Wu called out his injustice, saying that he didn't know the assassin at all, but many people who attended the banquet saw it with their own eyes, and it was a fact that the assassin knew him, and even had a close relationship.

The emperor was already in a rage, and Chu Jun's words almost immediately revealed the motive of Chu Wu's assassination, which made the emperor think of his unworthy biological mother very quickly.

Chu Wu was sent to prison soon.

Gu Baiji was so anxious that he knelt down and said that Chu had not been wronged, and begged for a thorough investigation.

However, the emperor ignored him in anger, only looked at him meaningfully, and said coldly: "It's time for Gu Qing and Chu Wuhe to leave."

The implication is that if it is not for reconciliation, then there is still a chance for you, General Gu, to kneel here and beg for mercy.

Gu Baiji's heart was cold, and when he turned his head, he happened to see Chu Wu, who was taken to the prison by the guards, turned his head.

When Chu Wu saw him, the pretentious indifference on his face faded away. He looked at Gu Baiji quietly, and when he was about to leave the hospital, he said silently:

"General, take care!"

In an instant, General Gu, who had passed through the rain of swords, guns and swords without changing his expression, finally broke his defense because of this sentence.

Chu Wu's words made him feel as if his heart was piercing, and the pain was so painful that he was heart-piercing.

It was also at this moment that Chu Wumian's relieved expression made Gu Baiji completely understand the purpose of his previous troubles in reconciling with himself.

It has been two days since the assassination, but Chu Wu has not been convicted for a long time in prison. One is that the emperor has not expressed his position, and the other is that Chu Wu himself has been silent and has never confessed his guilt.

Gu Baiji went to the palace to ask to see him several times, but he was not allowed to see him.

"Now there are many rumors outside that are not good for the prince." Ze An Yu said this, his expression was very ugly.

Gu Baiji lowered his head, tearing off a weed very skillfully, with a calm expression, "What are you passing on?"

Ze An Yu squatted down next to him, then tore off a weed indiscriminately, and said: "It is said that the Ninth Prince has a heart of disobedience, otherwise, how can such a stunning and beautiful person marry the general?" Are you a wife? It’s not that you want to get the general’s support in this way.”

As Ze An Yu said, he looked at Gu Baiji's bloodshot eyes with some worry, "General, do you want to take a rest first, how long have you not slept?"

"What are you sleeping at noon? Hiss~" Gu Baiji said, and suddenly patted Ze An Yu with the small shovel in his hand, "Don't move!"

"Ah?" Ze An Yu withdrew his hand in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Go away." Gu Bai said in disgust, carefully inspecting the herb that almost made Ze An Yu's poisonous hand, "Ah, these herbs are so rare, if you break one, you can't find it all over the Dazhao Here comes the second."

"Ah? So rare?" Ze An Yu hurriedly withdrew his hand, and obediently squatted aside to watch Gu Baiji's busy work, watching him carefully and skillfully serve King Ke's precious herbs. General, did your lord insist on reconciling with you because he knew he was going to be tricked by Chu Jun?"
