I have a mall space system, raise the baby first and then fight

"Thank you, uncle!" the child thanked him timidly.

Zhang Meng was extremely happy!!

Scratching his head, "No need to thank me! The world is in chaos now, go back to the house, listen to your mother, and don't run around! !"

Leng Ning put the child down and signaled the woman to take him home.

The woman hurriedly took the child back to the room and even forgot to say thank you.

As soon as the door closed, I heard a woman crying from inside, "I scared you to death, I told you not to run around, I told you not to run around!! " And then there were two big slaps on the butt! !

"It's all thanks to the Zhenbei Army that we met! If it were someone else, we would have lost our lives!" an old lady's voice was heard.

Leng Ning and Zhang Meng looked at each other, followed the army and headed towards the palace.

The palace was guarded layer by layer inside and outside. The Imperial Guards, the Imperial Palace Secret Guards and the remnants of the Yangyang Army were tightly guarding the last line of defense.

Gu Dingbei watched everything coldly. Once the sword was unsheathed, there was no reason to give up halfway! !

“Attack!” Gu Dingbei looked up at the sky. The stars were twinkling, the crape myrtle was dimming, a new force was emerging, a new star was arriving! !

The sky has changed!!

An hour later, Gu Dingbei led his army to stand in the middle of the hall. The old emperor was wearing a dragon robe and sitting upright, with no fear on his face! !

"Your father and I have known each other since childhood. We have always been brothers with different surnames!! We have supported each other and are loyal to each other!! I once blocked a knife for him during the rebellion of the vassal king!! He was grateful to me for this, and since then, he has been loyal to me and saved me from trouble many times!! He helped me climb this road to heaven!!"

Gu Dingbei narrowed his eyes slightly, but even so, what?

You are suspicious of him and want to get rid of him as soon as possible.

"When the six of us fought for the throne, I was the only one without any roots or power, and was the least favored one!! It was your father who stood up among thousands of people and blazed a trail for me to become an emperor!!"

Gu Dingbei didn't know what he was going to say, so he just stared at him.

The old emperor sighed, "Though those years were difficult, they were the most enjoyable, free-spirited, and happiest time of my life!! We brothers were united and had the power to swallow up the world!"

The old emperor stood up from the dragon throne and walked down slowly. "When I ascended the throne, your father went to the battlefield to conquer the world for me! Suppress the rebels and pacify the barbarians! However, your father's military exploits were so great, but I couldn't reward him enough! His prestige in the army was so high that I could only reluctantly make him a king of a different surname!!"

The old emperor's eyes changed, "I tried to ask him to hand over his military power, but he refused. He said that the Hu Meng tribe was brutal and he didn't trust others to guard the border, so he volunteered to guard the northern border and would not come to the capital without an imperial edict!! But he didn't know that the emperor's bed would not allow others to sleep peacefully? If you are more powerful than the emperor, you will die if you don't obey the imperial edict!!"

Gu Dingbei was furious. "My father never thought of betraying the court. It was you who was mean-spirited, suspicious, and repeatedly forced him. Now it has come to this. You have brought this upon yourself!!"

The old emperor nodded, "Maybe!! But I don't regret it!! Perhaps the moment I sit on the throne, my thoughts and methods will not be comparable to those of ordinary people. If you sit in my position one day, I believe you will understand. The emperor will never allow the slightest threat to exist."

Gu Dingbei sneered, "I am different from you. Even if I am the emperor, I will never doubt my good brother who has been through thick and thin with me, and force him into a dead end!!"

The old emperor nodded and stopped worrying about this issue.

"Chaoyang is my most beloved daughter. I married her to you. I know that although you have never loved her, you also respect her and have never treated her harshly. You have also not let her suffer any injustice in the General's Mansion!!"

When Princess Chaoyang was suddenly mentioned, Gu Dingbei felt a dull pain in his heart. That unruly princess who had always loved him silently had unknowingly sacrificed too much for him, even her own life.

"Chaoyang died for you!! For the sake of this friendship, I beg you to spare Chaoyang's sisters after I ascend to heaven. I have 19 princesses, all of them are young, and they were all Chaoyang's siblings. The princesses only enjoy honors, but will not achieve great things. They will not pose a threat to you in the future, so please, King Dingbei, spare them!"

Gu Dingbei never expected that the old emperor's last wish was to exchange Princess Chaoyang's kindness for the safety of his princesses.

The old emperor then added, "After I die, I will issue an order to bury all the concubines in the harem with me! At that time, my princes will be at the disposal of King Dingbei."

When he said this, there was no change in the old emperor's expression.

The heart of the emperor is indeed ruthless, but also tender! ! No new emperor will allow the princes of the previous dynasty to live, because their existence is the biggest hidden danger.

Unfortunately, he misjudged Gu Dingbei. Even if he didn't use Chaoyang's kindness, Gu Dingbei would not have slaughtered these princesses. He hadn't figured out how to deal with these princes. He wasn't even ready to be the emperor himself! !

He cares about the Gu family. At least Gu Nancheng and Gu Dingbei don't have the desire to be emperor.

The old emperor knew this clearly, but power was blinding. While he believed in Gu Nancheng's loyalty, he was constantly on guard against him.

He also knew that Gu Dingbei might not kill his princess at all, but he had to be on guard.

"Okay! I promise you! You can go now!!"

Gu Dingbei threw his saber to the ground, but the old emperor walked towards his sword, which was made of fine steel and was extremely sharp! !

The dragon pattern on it is lifelike. This sword has accompanied him in countless battles and has also accompanied him in the six sons' fight for the throne! ! It is like his old friend, just like him and Gu Nancheng! ! Now he is going to die, he only wants to die under this sword! !

The old emperor did not hesitate, drew his sword, and slashed his own neck! !

“Your Majesty!!” the old eunuch beside him cried out in grief!!!

"Your Majesty! Please walk slowly. Please wait for me, your old servant!" The old eunuch took out a dagger from his sleeve, stabbed it into his chest, and died with the old emperor on the spot.

The rest of the eunuchs and palace maids in the hall knelt on the ground, not daring to look up or speak.

Gu Dingbei waved his hand, "Bury him according to the imperial rites! Bury this old eunuch with the other people who were buried alive with him! This will also fulfill the bond between master and servant!!"

"Yes!" Leng Ning took the order and led people to make arrangements.

The palace was in chaos, all the concubines were gathered together, and the palace maids and eunuchs tried to escape with their valuables! !

The Zhenbei Army guarded every palace gate, no one dared to move! !

"Stop!! The Zhenbei Army is an army that loves its people like its own children and cannot bear to hurt them!! They have always resisted foreign enemies and will not kill innocent people!! You must keep order and wait for arrangements!! We will not hurt your lives, otherwise, you will die!!" Zhang Meng roared with his eyes wide open!! No one heard the previous words clearly, only the word "death" was deafening!!

All of a sudden, the palace maids and eunuchs who were running around all calmed down! They stood still and dared not move!
