MTL - That Person In That River and Lake-Chapter 575 two decrees

  Chapter 575 Two imperial decrees

In the room, Xiao Yi, the chief executive, stood respectfully in front of the door, silently. Gu Qingci peeled oranges for Emperor Xia, cleaned them and fed them to Emperor Xia. Although Emperor Xia can still speak, he barely It can move, but the breath of life is almost gone, and it is completely relying on some precious medicines to continue its life.

Gu Qingci also had a lot of emotions. When he left Chang'an, Emperor Xia was so high-spirited, but now, he has reached the point of dying. He also knows that Emperor Xia is actually not very old, and his martial arts are not bad. No accident, it is possible to continue to be emperor for ten or twenty years.

   Emperor Xia looked at Gu Qingci, smiled slightly, and said: "Why, I am also your uncle after all, you are not happy to let your boy peel a few oranges, you have no filial piety at all."

Looking at Emperor Xia who was still joking, Gu Qingci said with a smile: "Don't tell me, I really don't like it, if you let me know that you are my uncle earlier, that would be great, I will rely on your power to be a uncle in Chang'an." The Second Generation Ancestor is so good, if you want the wind to get the wind and the rain to get the rain, then you need to come and go with the wind and rain every day."

Emperor Xia gave Gu Qingci a blank look, and said: "You really can't blame me for this matter. If you want to blame it, you can blame it on me. I had to block the news of you and your mother so tightly back then. I was really powerless. My aunt has been complaining for many years, but you don't know. Before your father entered the palace, your aunt knew your identity, but she refused to see me for a long time. I am also the king of a country, and I am forced to sleep in the study every day. Should I lose face if it gets out?"

"Didn't you make this yourself?" Gu Qingci said: "Don't say you only knew my identity the year before last. I'm afraid you knew about it when my mother came to the capital. You didn't tell me about it. My aunt doesn't blame you. Who?"

   "Uh..." Xia Huang choked, and said: "Forget it, you boy is right, anyway, I can't beat you now, do you want to vent your anger?"

   "Forget it, I don't want to bear the name of regicide." Gu Qingci said.

After being silent for a while, Emperor Xia slowly said: "Qingci, I know that my royal family has always owed you the Gu family, and I can't say anything to make up for it, and you don't need it. I also know your character, but I, I still want to say thank you."

   Gu Qingci sighed, and said: "There is no need to say these things. Now that the situation is alas, I will do my best."

  Xiahuang and Gu Qingci are the people in this world who are most aware of the situation in the world, and they also know that at this time, it is meaningless to talk too much, and they can only fight for it.

  The two talked for a long time, and Emperor Xia was a little tired. When Gu Qingci was about to say goodbye, Emperor Xia suddenly sat up from the bed, greeted Xiao Yi, and said, "Xiao Yi, go and fetch the imperial edict."

  Xiao Yi went out, and soon came in with two imperial decrees.

  Emperor Xia pointed to the imperial decree and said, "Qingci, these are probably the last two imperial edicts in my life. Take them well and don't lose them. One imperial edict is for you, and the other...is for the crown prince."

  Gu Qingci frowned and said: "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Xia waved his hand and said: "Needless to say, you should be clearer than me about my situation. Mr. Wu Que will leave immediately, and the fate of the country will be weakened by half a point. At that time, it will also be the time when I leave. If you can’t keep it, it’s up to you.” After finishing speaking, Emperor Xia looked at Xiao Yi again and said, “Let’s announce the decree!”

  Xiao Yi nodded, looked at Gu Qingci, and said softly: "Master Hou, accept the order!"

  Gu Qingci was stunned for a moment, then slowly got up and bowed to perform the ceremony.

"The Gu family has a son who created the Xingtian Mansion and protected the people... Today, he was ordered to enter the capital to maintain the stability of the capital. He was appointed as a general of the Imperial Forest Army. He only belonged to the emperor and did not join the Ministry of War. He was appointed immediately. , beheading the faint king at the top, beheading the rebellious ministers at the bottom, the right to beheaded first and then played!"

  Gu Qingci bowed and said: "The minister accepts the decree!"

   After receiving the imperial decree, Gu Qingci looked at Emperor Xia and said, "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Xia smiled and said: "You don't need to read the other imperial decree. You can see it for yourself. If the imperial city is in chaos on the day of my death, you will lead the army to judge, hold Shangfang's sword, protect the new emperor, and kill the emperor. Rebel."

   "I understand."

  Gu Qingci received the imperial decree and opened it slowly. As expected, the imperial decree stated that the new emperor is the seventh prince Tang Moyi. If anyone rebels, let the Xishan Imperial Army obey Gu Qingci's command and enter the imperial city.

   "I'm a little tired, go and see your aunt, she has always wanted to see you."

  ...

  When Gu Qingci came out of the imperial city, it was already late at night, and he went to see his aunt who was the mother of the world. It was the first time that the aunt and nephew met, and the embarrassment was resolved in Queen Gu's crying.

Empress Gu personally cooked a meal for Gu Qingci. After eating, Empress Gu took him to chat again. For the whole afternoon, Empress Gu did not talk to him about any state affairs, but only asked him about his life over the years, crying from time to time. When he got up, it made Gu Qing resigned, but there was nothing he could do.

   To be honest, he had met Empress Gu from a distance before, and he felt quite kind at that time, and even asked someone to inquire about it. When he saw her today, he was sure that kindness was real, it was really kind!

The imperial city is still the same imperial city, but I don’t know why. Compared with the imperial city five years ago, Gu Qingci always feels a little more lonely. It is indeed a bit gloomy now.

   Go back to Qingshi Lane again, back to the courtyard where he lived in the beginning, but this time he is alone. There are still traces of his playing the piano on the bluestone wall, but there is a little less rain.

   The man with the lantern is also missing.

  In the Qingshi Lane, it was empty, with the moon hanging over it, and there was silence everywhere, when suddenly the sound of a zither sounded.

  ...

  Zhuzhou, a small mountain village.

This small mountain village is a very ordinary small mountain village. In the dead of night, when the moon hangs high, a masked man in black came quietly like a ghost. He didn't disturb anyone, and even the barking of the dog didn't change. He walked in the village. , the shadow is stretched very long.

  Finally, the masked man stopped in front of a farmer's door. He lingered in front of the door and knocked gently.

   A rough man's voice sounded in the room: "Who is it, it's so late?"

  The masked man didn't speak, but knocked on the door twice, but the frequency of the transmission was a bit weird. It was clearly in the empty night, but it didn't spread very far.

   At this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared behind him, and said coldly, "Judge Cui, why are you here?"

  The masked man called Judge Cui shuddered, turned around slowly, knelt down on the ground, and said, "Ksitigarbha, something happened to the underworld!"
