Chapter 363 Palace Change
Chapter 363 Palace Change
Gu Yeran looked through the crowd and exchanged glances with his cousin. A dark fire quietly sprouted between the two brothers: Should they oppose or not?
Pei Mochen: "Prince Regent, the Xuanwu Army has made great contributions in the Northern Desert Campaign. I will order the historian to record your great achievements in the book of merit."
Before Emperor Xiuyan could bow his hands in thanks, Pei Mochen said, "The small island in the middle of the lake next to Huoyun Temple is undisturbed, and is the best place to rest and recuperate, and write military books."
"I admire the Regent's talent. Could you please compile a new military book?"
Di Xiuyan did not comment, and looked at Gu Yeran with his sharp eyes first.
Gu Yeran understood: Counter!
Pei Mochen wanted to use the method of writing a military book to imprison Emperor Xiuyan on the small island next to Huoyun Temple.
His methods were ruthless and his speed was fast. It was estimated that he had already secretly transferred troops stationed outside. As soon as the troops arrived in Beijing, they would immediately take action against Di Xiuyan.
It's either you die or I die, the Regent has no choice but to rebel.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to go back to the palace to get some luggage. I will set out on time tomorrow morning." He must settle Mu Wanyan before leaving, and also instruct Meng Xiao and Chi Yan to accept the battle.
Similarly, if a rebellion breaks out, the number of Xuanwu troops left behind in the capital is far from enough, and he needs to go back and make a careful plan.
However, Pei Mochen is more ruthless than his father and is also faster.
He just smiled and pretended to look at Di Xiuyan: "Don't worry, Regent. I have already made all the arrangements on the island in the middle of the lake. I will also send someone to pick up your bag in person."
He personally stepped down from the dragon throne and patted Di Xiuyan on the shoulder, "Please, King Regent, leave immediately and don't delay the progress of writing the military book."
The ministers looked at each other in bewilderment. The huge Golden Throne Hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to go home and say goodbye to my family." Thinking of Mu Wanyan, the regent who had been rebellious all his life softened his tone for the first time.
Pei Mochen laughed, "Family? Just ask Doctor Gu to take them to the island in the middle of the lake to accompany them."
He looked at Di Xiuyan with an irresistible look, "Please, Regent, leave immediately!"
Emperor Xiuyan's heart tightened, knowing that things were not that simple, but he had the emperor's order and had to obey.
Time was urgent, so Gu Yeran strode forward and held his cousin's hand tightly.
Di Xiuyan said two words in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Yan, Bing."
Only after seeing Gu Yeran nodded to him heavily did he follow the guards out of the Golden Palace.
-
After the court session, Gu Yeran rushed to the Regent's Palace in a hurry, fearing that if he delayed for a second, Pei Mochen would do something abnormal.
He gripped the whip tightly and kept whipping the horse's belly, trying to make his warhorse go faster and faster.
However, when he was still about a mile away from the Regent's Palace, Pei Mochen's men blocked his way.
"Doctor Gu, the emperor remembered that you have excellent medical skills and would like to ask you to compile a medical book." Lai Wang was holding the imperial edict, followed by a large group of neatly dressed officers and soldiers, and even archers.
Gu Yeran: "Okay, I'll write it when I get home."
Lai Wang: "Biyun Village on the outskirts of the city is beautiful with green mountains and clear waters, and is heavily guarded. The emperor wants to ask Doctor Gu to write there."
"Is he going to put me under house arrest?" Gu Yeran drew his sword and pointed it at Lai Wang. For a moment, he wanted to fight them directly.
Lai Wang pointed at the armored soldiers and archers and smiled, "Mr. Gu, please do not be impulsive. The emperor is wise and it is precisely because he cares about Dafeng that he wants you and the regent to write the complete military and medical books as soon as possible."
"He loves the people, so why is he under house arrest?"
Gu Yeran jumped off his horse and followed Lai Wang towards the soldiers, "Pei Mochen is even more despicable than I thought."
"Oh, Master Gu, insulting the emperor is a capital crime. Hey, hey, hey, hey... Master Gu, what are you doing?" Lai Wang screamed in fear. Gu Yeran put the knife on his neck, his eyes full of murderous intent.
His cousin handed Yanyan over to him, and he would feel sorry for his cousin if he failed to transfer her away smoothly.
"Let me go, or I will kill your chief."
"Puff——" A feather arrow shot directly into Lai Wang's chest, and Lai Wang died on the spot.
The leading soldier said to Gu Yeran with a serious face, "Please forgive me, Master Gu. His Majesty has ordered that you must be taken away today. Therefore, these outsiders will not pose any threat to us."
He didn't even look at Wang, and made an invitation gesture to Gu Yeran, "Doctor Gu, please get in the carriage."
-
At the same time, another group of people quickly set out from the palace and headed towards the Regent's Palace.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to soldiers, this team also includes many palace maids, and even the carriages are decorated very luxuriously and built completely according to the specifications of the queen's sedan chair.
Pei Mochen was extremely anxious in the palace. He paced back and forth with an excited smile on his face.
He has waited too long for this day. Now that he has the throne, he still lacks a queen.
-
Prince Yan, Pei Yanxun, was also riding a white horse and galloping towards the Regent's Palace.
He is a love-brained person, and his mind is filled with only romantic thoughts.
Therefore, although he could not see that things were going to change in Dafeng Kingdom, he could predict that Pei Mochen would go to the Regent's Palace to snatch Mu Wanyan.
He would never allow this to happen, and he would go and inform someone.
Mu Wanyan, Qiluo, and himself... were all people who had been badly hurt by unfaithful people. They shared the same pain, and he could not let Pei Mochen's evil plan succeed emotionally.
The white horse rode very fast, and even when he passed in front of the carriage that was going to pick up Mu Wanyan, the guards saw the King of Yan, respectfully made way for him, and knelt down to salute.
-
Prince Yan arrived at the Regent's Palace ahead of time and simply said that Di Xiuyan was sent to write a military book, and Gu Yeran was also taken away to learn medical skills. Mu Wanyan's brows furrowed.
Pei Yanxun: "Miss Mu, based on my understanding of the third brother, he will definitely take you to the palace. You should hurry up and escape, don't let him succeed."
"I feel that Third Brother still has improper thoughts about you."
Mu Wanyan nodded, and when she thanked King Yan, there was still no sign of emotion on her face.
However, as soon as Pei Yanxun left, she quickly wiped the sweat from her forehead and forced back the tears that were about to well up in her eyes.
Her hands were even shaking with nervousness, but she couldn't stop for a moment.
Taking out the badge that Di Xiuyan left for her to protect herself at the critical moment, Mu Wanyan raised her head and said in a deep voice to the guards:
"Seeing the card is like seeing the Regent. Officers above level 5, please gather in the study immediately."
Chi Yan and Meng Xiao realized the seriousness of the matter. They rushed into the study room immediately. It was at this moment that they saw the cold aura on Mu Wanyan.
This usually delicate woman becomes calmer than a man when faced with problems. It is really admirable.
The soldiers changed their name from Miss Mu to "Regent Princess" as a response to her.
Mu Wanyan had completely guessed what Di Xiuyan meant by sending troops to Beijing, and she arranged it accordingly.
It was extremely thrilling. By the time all the tasks were arranged, the people Pei Mochen arranged to "rob" her just arrived outside the palace.
"His Majesty has ordered that Miss Mu move forward and enter the palace to see him."
"His Majesty has ordered that Miss Mu move forward and enter the palace to see him."
The eunuch who was in charge of the communication shouted twice, and watched Mu Wanyan drinking tea calmly, but he did not dare to step forward to urge her.
One guard drew his sword, but was rebuffed by Mu Wanyan's eyes.
Finally, the eunuch realized that his tough approach didn't work, so he softened his voice, cried, and played the emotional card.
Everyone knelt on the ground and begged pitifully, "Miss Mu, if we can't successfully bring you to the palace today, His Majesty will definitely chop off our heads."
"Not only that, our families will also be implicated."
Mu Wanyan raised her eyebrows and looked at him, asking, "Does it have anything to do with me?"
Eunuch: "..."
"The girl is kind-hearted, I'm sure she won't stand by and watch someone die."
Mu Wanyan: "I have always been willful and unruly, just like your emperor's sister, Pei Yuzhu."
Eunuch: "Miss, how can you come back to the palace with us?"
Mu Wanyan: "Let Pei Mochen come in person to invite him and release Di Xiuyan from the island in the middle of the lake."
