After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power
Chapter 472: No Dawn Yet
Being attacked from both sides by the Yan army and the Xiang-Chu army, Xiling was in danger and the entire capital was in panic.
At this critical moment, Xiao Linfeng left the court and left the capital.
Even though he lived on an isolated island, Gu Shengsheng was keenly aware of the unusual atmosphere.
After coughing up blood again that day, she asked, "Did something happen outside?"
Lu Wu sighed deeply and said meaningfully, "The peaceful days are over."
She knew what was going on instantly, so when Xiao Linfeng came by boat, she was not surprised at all.
He even laughed and joked with Lu Wu, "If I jump into the lake now, leaving him with only a cold corpse. Will he be sad about my death, or will he be furious because his plan was ruined..."
"Girl...don't do this..."
Fortunately, she was just talking casually. When Xiao Linfeng came ashore, she greeted him with a smile, "Why are you here, Uncle Xiao?"
The girl is lying on the railing with a smile on her face, and the beautiful scenery of the lake makes it a pleasing picture.
As he walked towards her, he knew clearly in his heart that he was about to destroy this beauty himself.
He has indeed done many evil things and should go to hell.
"I'll take you off the island."
It was just a simple sentence, and her smile froze on her face, and she even turned two shades paler.
"Are you unhappy? Haven't you always wanted to leave the island?" He held out his hand to her. "After you leave the island this time, you don't have to come back."
"Okay." She smiled lightly and placed her hand in hers, "I'll go with you."
Just like that rainy night many years ago, she sat there shivering with blood all over her face. He suddenly appeared like a god and killed all those who were chasing them.
He knelt on one knee and held out his hand to her, "Shengsheng, don't be afraid. I'll take you home, okay."
Frightened and uneasy, she placed her little hand in his, and from then on put her fate in his hands.
When she lived here, she wanted to escape every day. She was tired of seeing these scenes year after year, and she was reluctant to leave.
She didn't have much to pack, and soon she was helped onto the boat. She looked at Bi Bo Ting and whispered, "Goodbye."
Well, I probably won't see you again.
Both of them were extremely silent along the way, and the carriage stopped outside the palace gate in the middle of the night.
She looked at the brightly lit palace without asking anything, and quietly let Lu Wu support her and walk in.
She was placed in the palace closest to the imperial study. Not long after she sat down, she was informed that the queen had arrived.
Xiao Linfeng stood up, walked out and ran into Xiao Linglong who was hurrying over.
At such a moment, the girl who was worth his effort to pick up, she subconsciously felt that the other party's identity might be unusual.
She went straight to the palace, but Xiao Linfeng stretched out his hand to stop her, "It's late at night, the Queen should go back to rest."
"Since your majesty has brought the girl into the palace, as the master of the six palaces, I should naturally know who she is."
"There are some things you shouldn't be curious about."
"Could it be that her identity is not to be revealed to the public?"
The two were facing each other when Gu Shengsheng came out and greeted her weakly, "Gu Shengsheng greets the Queen."
"Gu Shengsheng..." She asked with a complicated expression, "Who is Gu Mingyue to you?"
"My aunt..." She tilted her head and said innocently, "My father's name is Gu Mingwang."
Xiao Linglong's body shook, and she almost guessed his true intention in an instant.
At this moment she didn't know whether she was more angry, disappointed, or disheartened.
She raised her hand and slapped him hard, and said in a hoarse voice, "Gu Mingwang joined the army at the age of fifteen and went to the battlefield at the age of sixteen. He has been guarding the border and has experienced life and death in the battles with the Turks!"
She was still young when Gu Mingwang became famous, but she had heard about his deeds since she was a child. Later, when the Gu family was in trouble, he returned without being summoned. He was shot to death on a cliff by the imperial guards with thousands of arrows through his heart.
A famous general, he tried his best to defend the national security, but was labeled a traitor and died tragically.
"Xiao Linfeng, you are not a human being. He fought for Xiling all his life but ended up in such a tragic way. What do you want to do with his daughter!"
Gu Shengsheng, who was standing aside, was as pale as a sheet of paper. He spat out a mouthful of blood with a "puff" and fell to the ground, being supported by Lu Wu.
"Girl!" Lu Wu was frightened.
She was so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe. How could this happen? This was how her father died...
She was young when the Gu family was in trouble. That night was very chaotic, and she only remembered that many people died.
She and her brother fled under the protection of their mother and Gu family guards. Later, her mother died and her brother died...she was the only one left and was saved by Xiao Linfeng in the end.
She had always thought that Gu Mingwang died on the battlefield, but she didn't expect him to die like this...
"It was because of the incident at the Gu family that your father returned without being summoned. Not only was he shot to death, but the entire Gu family was rightfully labeled as traitors." Xiao Linglong said word by word.
She stared at Xiao Linfeng, "You know all this, right?"
Xiao Linfeng watched as more and more blood came out of the corners of her mouth, and turned to Eunuch Zhou and said, "Go call the imperial physician!"
"Do these things have anything to do with you?" She asked the question she had never dared to ask.
Xiao Linfeng just remained silent and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief.
"Please speak!"
"Didn't you guess it already?"
Gu Tangli did tell her that he was closely related to the downfall of the Gu family, but she did not go into detail about Gu Mingwang's death.
She closed her eyes and tears flowed down. The truth was much crueler than she had imagined.
"Your father returned without being summoned because he personally sent a letter to your father." Xiao Linglong said word by word, "At that time, he was a student of Gu Yuan and a close friend of your aunt. Your father believed it."
Therefore, it was he who had plotted to kill her father. Jiang Xue Ning was probably not very clear about this.
Xiao Linglong knows this so well because she is a member of the Xiao family.
"Haha, no wonder my father appears in my dreams every night covered in blood..."
She twitched in Lu Wu's arms and said, "Uncle Xiao, many years ago you plotted to kill my father, so many years later, what kind of trap have you set for me today?"
"I was sincere when I was nice to you. I even thought that one day when I ascended the throne, I would make you the eldest princess." He stroked her cheek gently, "But who made them come back? And your last name is Gu."
"You are really good to me, but you are also really going to use me until the end, right?" She gave him a weak smile, "Then Uncle Xiao, don't be soft-hearted."
She looked up at the dark sky and said, "If I can live to see tomorrow's sun, I will willingly jump into the trap you set, as a way of repaying your many years of protection."
She fainted, and the entire Imperial Hospital was helpless as to what she could do. They said her body had long been deteriorating and no medicine could cure her.
Finally, Lu Wu remembered the three magic medicines that the miracle doctor Yunyou had given her before he left. After taking one of them, her breathing gradually became stable.
Xiao Linfeng sat beside her bed, "Wake up, Shengsheng, didn't you always say you wanted to see the light outside the island..."
