Loyal heart travels a long way

The royal heirs were not weak at first, but things in the palace were the dirtiest. In the end, there were only four princes who were close to each other.

Two old princes, two heirs.

The first emperor was the youngest among the brothers, and several old princes are no longer alive, and now the remaining two are kind-hearted and reclusive.The other two heir kings are An Zifeng, the king of Ju, and An Ziqiong, the king of Fengrui.

An Ziqiong was born lame, did not marry a princess, and had no heirs, and An Zi was a good-looking talent, but he was not married either.

Gu Zhiyao looked at the person in front of him, although he hadn't seen him for a few years, he would never admit that this man was his master.

Neither of them confessed their identities to each other at the beginning, but they didn't think that their identities were really embarrassing.

Gu Zhiyao felt better. He didn't think too much about the blood relationship between the other party and himself like Chu Dancheng did. He was just surprised that his master turned out to be the prince of Da Zhou. No wonder he said that he was the son of a criminal minister. He actually did poison to kill his own father.

The turbulent waves in An Zifeng's heart turned upside down, the young apprentice who was recruited on a whim back then was a thorn in his daughter's eyes, this is really embarrassing.

If he can persuade the other party to his own camp, wouldn't it be possible to subdue a large family of generals together?

And those soldiers in Mobei...

Thinking of this, An Zifeng smiled wryly and shook his head, is it possible?The entire Chu family was on An Zimu's side, so they could be considered loyal.What I want to do, let alone let the other party join me, I am afraid that the Chu family will want to slaughter their own Prince Zhu's mansion as soon as they know about it.

And Xiao Wu... If I remember correctly, his brother is actually a love brother. Some time ago, I heard the rumor that the emperor issued an imperial decree to order Chu Dancheng, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, to marry his righteous brother Gu Zhiyao, and he joked with Li Ronghai that The emperor's younger brother became more and more confused when he became the emperor, and even messed up the mandarin ducks.

Where is the messy mandarin duck score?I'm afraid it wasn't that these two people were always in love with Meng Meng, the emperor personally helped Chu Dancheng and Gu Zhiyao find a cover.

The few people present had their own thoughts. Li Ronghai, who was with King Zhu, had also met Gu Zhiyao. He asked Gu Zhiyao with a smile: "Hey, little Chu, do you still remember me?"

Only then did Gu Zhiyao look at the housekeeper intently. He didn't look familiar, but his voice was very familiar. After thinking for a long time, he opened his mouth in confusion, "Xu...Xu Bei?"

"Hey, it's me, it's me." Li Ronghai nodded hastily, "Now that I'm in the capital, I can't change my face anymore. No, I'm showing my original face."

"Where's your beard?" Gu Zhiyao was stupefied, then looked up at the king, "Master, you...you are the king?"

"He's an eunuch with a sticky beard." King Zhu nodded, and looked at Gu Zhiyao again: "I never thought that Xiao Wu is a well-known little General Gu in the government and the public. You said your name is Chu Gu, I should have thought of it earlier."

Gu Zhiyao is not used to seeing An Zifeng like this, Xu Shi has come to the capital, he has restrained his temper a lot, when he was in Mobei, this person has always been flamboyant, and it is not uncommon for him to say some vulgar words that are extremely inconsistent with his face .Seeing such a decent smile on his face now, he panicked.

It was a bit embarrassing for several people to look at each other without saying a word. Chu Dancheng rode his horse and walked into the city after a few polite greetings. He and Gu Zhiyao settled the king and his party in their residence and went back to Fuyuan with Gu Zhiyao .

If his guess is correct, this King An Zifeng should be Gu Zhiyao's biological father, and An Rumeng is considered to be the daughter of Princess Jingming. But Princess Jingming has a child who is still alive. It is impossible for the An family to know nothing about it. If it is said that she has not contacted King Zhu for so many years, Chu Dancheng would not believe it anyway.

An Rumeng has the mentality of wanting to kill Gu Zhiyao and replace him, so what about the king who thinks he is An Rumeng's biological father?Don't you also want to get rid of Gu Zhiyao?

Chu Dancheng turned around in his heart, thinking about the celebration banquet tomorrow...there will be a lot of people at that time, and the king personally poisoned the late emperor, so he will not give up his dream of becoming emperor in the past few years.Since ancient times, such occasions are the most prone to public changes, and the emperor also had the idea that if King Ruo and King Fengrui moved to force the palace, they just happened to catch them all in one go.

Tomorrow may look like a celebration banquet, but in fact, for those who are interested in the throne, it may be a grand banquet.

Gu Zhiyao also understands this truth, not because An Zifeng is his master and he believes that the other party will not rebel, on the contrary, because he is a master and apprentice, he understands An Zifeng's ambition better.

If the other party wanted to be the emperor, even if he knew that the palace would be prepared for such an opportunity, he would definitely give it a try.

"Brother," Gu Zhiyao sighed all afternoon, and said hesitantly: "Tomorrow's banquet my master will probably have to move, one end is master, the other end is uncle, I feel very uncomfortable."

Chu Dancheng hugged Gu Zhiyao in his arms, rubbed the top of his hair: "Then what do you think?"

"I'll help uncle." Gu Zhiyao replied directly without thinking, "When uncle is the emperor, the people in the frontier fortress will live well. If you change your master, you will have to change your blood no matter in the officialdom or in the army, and it will be a waste of time and money. "

Chu Dancheng sighed, he knew that Gu Zhiyao would think so.People who have experienced the battlefield know the suffering of the war better than anyone else, and of course they don't want too many wars.The civil strife in the palace seems to only involve a few people, but if the emperor is really changed, once the new laws and regulations are promulgated, the new officials will kill people, and the cleansing of the former power does not know how many people will die.

This is not a matter of who is close or far, but a matter of right and wrong about the survival of the people in the country.

Gu Zhiyao is indeed capable enough, not only to help him take care of things, but also to make great achievements himself.Sometimes Chu Dancheng would rather that Gu Zhiyao didn't understand anything like he did when he was a child, and just be protected behind his own back.

But I couldn't bear to hide Gu Zhiyao behind my back and not let him learn or do anything.He couldn't take his eyes off Xiao Suanmiao'er's high-spirited appearance on horseback. This child was born to belong to the battlefield, not the high house or deep courtyard.

Gu Zhiyao looked at Chu Dancheng, knew what he was thinking, reached out to hold his hand, "Brother, I know you love me, but I can bear it."

"I just hope," Gu Zhiyao paused, and then said again: "I just hope Master doesn't die. If he really does something tomorrow, I will help my uncle. If he loses, I beg my uncle not to give him the death penalty." At worst, being locked up like An Ziqiong for the rest of his life is better than losing his life."
