Chapter 169 Revenge?
Finally, at sunset and dusk, after a long silence, Tai and the palace finally spoke again.
Gu Ye pushed the door open and stepped out, holding the golden decree in his hand. At the same time, he came out with the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince.
The Third Prince was as gloomy as ever, while the Fourth Prince remained calm and composed. It looked like they didn't know the content in the hands of Saint Gu Ye.
"His Highness has collapsed," he shouted, causing everyone to cry and kowtow to the ground.
"The emperor has an order," Gu Ye shouted again. This time, apart from the relatives of the palace, the surrounding generals and guards also knelt, including Qi Hai.
Qi Hai pressed down on Ji Wujin's neck. Ji Wujin suffered pain and had to bend her feet, while Qi Hai was about to kneel.
No one would suspect that an accident would happen at this time when the decree was read.
So when the wind blew over his head, Qi Hai didn't even look up to see who it was and his neck was cut off.
His stunned expression froze forever. As her head fell to the ground, Ji Wujin lowered her head and saw Qi Hai's pair of turn in one's grave eyes staring straight at her.
Under hundreds of pairs of silent eyes, Lin Yun slowly raised the sword in his hand and gently wiped the body of Qi Hai. He wiped away the warm blood still flowing on the sword. He stood motionlessly next to Ji Wujin, expressionless and speechless, like a cold-faced warlord without life.
"Ah!" The timid palace maid and eunuch screamed.
"Daring, Lin Yun, you..." Nobel Consort Liu, who was closest to him, trembled but pretended to be calm. She pointed at him angrily, "Men, take him down."
"Palace Guards listens," Gu Ye's cold voice suddenly rang out in front of Tai Wei and the hall. In an instant, everyone looked at him with anticipation, panic, helplessness, and countless gazes focused on Gu Ye. They longed for Gu Ye to oversee the overall situation, and were afraid that he was the source of the demon and the commander of the slaughter.
Fate was on Gu Ye at that moment.
Gu Ye raised his hand, along with the decree in his hand. Then, under the watchful gazes of countless people, everyone saw the breaking of the decree from his hand. Everyone heard that the crack tore open like a piercing through the sky, making a terrifying destructive sound.
"He tore the imperial edict, Gu Ye tore it up!" Someone in the crowd screamed as if they were dying. Everyone who had been in the palace for a long time knew what was happening today.
"You want to go against me?" The Third Prince uttered coldly. The frost on his face could no longer be seen from before.
At this moment, the Fourth Prince's hands were tightly clenched. No one was more passive than him. Without Ji Wujin's bargaining chip, Qi Hai was dead and things were going crazy beyond his expectations.
"Gu Ye, you're crazy," the Third Prince's face was almost ferocious, and his entire face trembled.
Gu Ye's turn a deaf ear to threw away the torn decree. He raised his hand and Palace Guards of from all sides put his hand on the handle of the knife at his waist. Only at this time did everyone really see that Palace Guards at the four gates of Taihe Palace had their own generals. Among them were the familiar faces Ji Wujin had seen before: Big Beard You Long and his apprentice Wang Xiao!
Just seeing these two people, Ji Wujin was completely stunned. She had always known that Gu Ye was in the court, but she didn't know that his power was so big!
Needless to say, You Long and Wang Xiao were old generals of Jinyun Dynasty for many years, while Lin Yun, the new general promoted by the Emperor, was Gu Ye's confidant. These three warrior generals directly grabbed almost all the troops in the Jinyun Dynasty. This was why the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince had to recruit Gu Ye. And the three people from play a decisive role actually worked with Gu Ye. In front of the imperial power, they obeyed Gu Ye without hesitation!
No one expected that Gu Ye, who the Emperor trusted the most, would actually tear up his decree in public. The Emperor once said that whoever would turn back on Ye would not do anything, but today, it seemed like he was just a word!
"Your Highness, you saw the wrong person!" Nobel Consort Liu's face turned pale and she suddenly fell to the ground. As she cried out, the rest of the concubines lost their backbone. All of a sudden, their faces turned pale and they cried.
"Gu Ye, think about it clearly. If you really take this step, you will definitely become the a traitor through the ages of the doomed eternally!" The Fourth Prince clenched his fists tightly. Even though his teeth were fighting, he still spoke in gnashing teeth.
Gu Ye's raised hand paused, then his lips curved into a mocking arc. He opened his mouth and said in an icy voice like an explanation, "Who told you to use my woman?"
The Fourth Prince's face was completely pale, while the Third Prince looked gloomily at Ji Wujin, who Lin Yun was protecting. The corners of his eyes trembled violently. Finally, he remembered Ji Wujin in a corner of his memory-the burning girl he once teased in Gu's residence.
Without waiting for the Third Prince to say anything more, Gu Ye's hand had already dropped by the put one's foot down.
"Kill!"
With a cold order, 30,000 Palace Guards moved neatly. It wasn't until a knight in silver armor came to everyone with a knife that everyone reacted dreamlike: Gu Ye was not a vegetarian. He had been in the middle of the court for more than ten years, and a group of loyal followers had followed him for many years. They had all occupied various posts in the imperial palace, and the with twisted roots and gnarled branches was already ingrained.
Three thousand Palace Guards in the forbidden ground of the imperial palace in March. On the day of the Emperor's drive, Tai and the palace were covered in blood.
After the massacre, the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince were captured in a sea of blood. Although they had experienced bloody battles, they still compromised in front of Palace Guards's strength. Both of them had tie one's hands behind his back on their bodies, and their attendants were also slaughtered. The only living person was probably the emperor's wife and some frightened palace ladies.
"Gu Ye, do you know what you're doing?" The world will only have the surname of Jin, and it is impossible to surname Gu. Could it be that you really dare to violate the world and dare to usurp the throne? Nobel Consort Liu was also forced to kneel in front of Tai and the palace by several swords. Apart from the sharp aura, she could not see the appearance of the former Enchantress.
You Long and Wang Xiao put away their knives and stood quietly in front of the kidnapped Third Prince and Fourth Prince.
"You Long!" In vain, you were two court officials. I didn't expect that your be a wolf with a savage heart would actually collude with Gu Ye! Do you want to keep your reputation and make the world curse? In vain, my royal father valued you for many years, and you, Wang Xiao. Do you know what you're doing right now?
No one dared to believe that Gu Ye would really rebel, and he had joined three generals in the imperial court. If they wanted to rebel, no one could shake such a lineup. However, what made people fantastic still felt that no matter how powerful Gu Ye was, when did he recruit You Long and Wang Xiao, who were always stubborn?
When the fierce battle started, Ji Wujin had already been protected by Gu Ye. Her eyes were gently covered by Gu Ye, and she refused to let go until now.
Ji Wujin's legs were soft right now. Even though Gu Ye covered her eyes, she still listened to the pain that had happened around her. Suddenly, she was scared too. Although Gu Ye from be close by was warm around her, at this moment, she felt a chill through her heart.
"What's wrong?" Gu Ye sensed what she was doing and his hand tightened slightly.
Ji Wujin suddenly felt like she couldn't breathe. She pushed Gu Ye hard, but she didn't push it away.
"You killed so many people, why? Was it really just as you said, that they used me to threaten you? Or are you really going to usurp the throne?
When she asked the last sentence, Ji Wujin suddenly felt that she no longer had the courage to listen to Gu Ye's answer. Now that things had settled, there was no room for change.
"Huh, this lady is a righteous person," the big-bearded You Long suddenly laughed loudly.
However, You Long's usual righteous laughter made Ji Wujin feel equally uncomfortable at this time. She always thought that You Long was a loyal minister despite his bad temper. But today, not only did he help Gu Ye wash the palace in blood, but now he still has the heart to tease, and it is not too much of a sin!
"You really have to go against me," Ji Wujin said with an indescribable sense of loss in her heart.
"You don't like this?" Gu Ye's hand still gently covered her eyes. His voice was heard above her head, very calm.
Ji Wujin shook her head honestly.
"Why?"
"For no reason, you're Gu Ye, the greedy official of the empire, the Prime Minister of Jinyun Dynasty. You are you, you are not someone else, and you are not someone who will be a dragon chair. Ji Wujin said sullenly. The inexplicable sense of justice grew in her heart, and she thought that Gu Ye was like this. She never thought that he would take another step forward. She never thought about it, nor did she think about it.
After Ji Wujin finished speaking, there was no sound around.
Just as Ji Wujin couldn't help but want to pull Gu Ye's hand away, a crisp applause slowly rang out.
"What a virtuous woman," the voice of a deja vu came into Ji Wujin's ears. Ji Wujin frowned and thought about where she had heard this voice before.
"Haha, First Prince, you can count it out. If you don't come out again, it doesn't matter if I carry a black pot for a while. Gu Prime Minister will be wronged by this girl to death," You Long joked loudly.
The First Prince was actually the First Prince who had been stupid for so many years in the Imperial unknown to the public. Isn't he a fool? How could You Long say such things to him, and he doesn't sound like he has a problem at all!
