Chosen Son

Chapter 61 Anger

King Jin's actions were very fast. After a while, Gu Fan received a letter from him secretly. All the categories on it were clear, and it must have been accumulated over the years. From this point of view, King Jin treats him very well. It can be regarded as trustworthy enough.Gu Fan sorted out his list, and before he picked the right time to send it up, he got the news that the emperor was about to hold a ceremony to sacrifice to heaven.Gu Fan looked at the names of the proposed people, and just after sighing for the resoluteness of King Jin, he received the news from the palace that he would also accompany him.

It's normal to go, and it's abnormal not to go, but the fact that the world may change this time makes him quite worried.After all, if this blow fails, not only King Jin, but even his own life may be ruined.Fortunately, even though King Jin was in the palace, there was Mr. Lan taking care of him outside the palace, who would exchange information with him from time to time, which seemed reliable.This docking work has always been handed over to Zhisha. He knows a lot, and sometimes he would ask Gu Fan: "Master, aren't you afraid that King Jin will cheat you?"

"I still know the king of Jin." Gu Fan said vaguely, glanced at him, saw the hidden worry in his eyes, his heart softened suddenly, and asked him: "If I really fail, I will be punished by Your Majesty." Execute, where are you going?"

Zhi Sha said without hesitation: "I will go wherever the master goes, and Zhi Sha in the underworld is willing to follow you."

"Confused!" Gu Fan was almost pissed off by his stupidity, pointed at his nose and said, "If you listen to me so much, then I order you now, if I die one day, you give me a good life Alive, do you hear me?"

Zhisha looked at him with some stubbornness: "No."

Gu Fan: "..."

Sure enough, he put away his acting skills recently, the little bastard is itchy.

"Forget it, things are not that bad." He sighed, "It's just that if that day really comes, just remember this sentence for me."

Zhisha looked up at him, and saw a little hesitation in Gu Fan's eyes.

To be honest, I completely believe in King Jin, not to mention that the soul of the original owner would not believe it. Even as himself, he would not be so stupid and sweet, but he still doesn't know what King Jin is thinking, and... ..

In fact, he was vaguely selfish, but nothing happened now, so it was hard to say anything.

The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony is a tradition of this dynasty. In addition to the regular trips once every three years, if the emperor is willing, he can add more times, but every time he holds it, he will spend a lot of manpower and material resources, and generally no one will be idle Holding it once for nothing will not only be questioned by major officials, but it will also be detrimental to the stability of people's hearts.Of course, the current Holy Majesty is obviously not someone who would think about these things, and he went as soon as he said it, very unrestrained.What's more, he has another reason for being aboveboard-this is the first ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven since he succeeded to the throne.

On the day of the trip, the weather was fine.

Gu Fan was urged to get up early in the morning, so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, but he had to stand at the front of the queue, and he couldn't even fish in troubled waters, which caused him to get up full of breath, and his face was black all morning It caused officials from all walks of life to avoid it one after another, for fear that one accidentally touched the mold of this plague god.

The emperor seemed to be in high spirits, wearing a newly-made dragon robe, as if because of the weather that seemed to be an excellent omen, his whole face was filled with joy, and when he saw Gu Fan's complexion was not good, he kindly cared for him. A few words.Gu Fan had no choice but to pull himself together to respond, but he also acted like a harmonious monarch and his subjects.

After the basic procedures were completed, the brigade's troops set off to the outside of the palace.

Gu Fan walked in front, yawning quietly, and secretly glanced at Mr. Lan in the crowd. He looked as usual, and he didn't feel any disobedience among the crowd of curious and watching people. He even made a cooperative gesture. He looked like he was cheering, and he didn't look like he was here to make trouble at all, he could be called the movie king.

Gu Fan secretly applauded for him, and saw him secretly gesture to himself.

This is what it means to be all in place.

He suddenly regained consciousness from his drowsiness, looked at the emperor in front of him, and suddenly felt a little sympathy.

It's pretty miserable to be an emperor and make it like this, and everyone around him will plot against him one by one.There is a brother who is still a child of other people's family. He has been loved by everyone since he was a child.

Of course you are right.

When he sent the list to the emperor a few days ago, the two of them went to that remote bamboo forest again—since he saw the blood there, he once suspected that this faint king had a special preference for killing people in the bamboo forest, so much so that he stepped on the ground. He was a little trembling when he went in, but fortunately the emperor's attention was on the thin piece of paper in his hand, so he didn't pay much attention to him.

The wind blows the forest, and the bamboo shadows rustle.For a moment, only the rustling of bamboo leaves echoed around, and it seemed a little peaceful.When Gu Fan came out, he only wore an unlined shirt, and felt a little cold at the moment, while rubbing his arms calmly while observing the emperor's expression, he found that he was no longer as violent as before, and calmed a little scary.

He understands why.

It was a list of mixed truths and falsehoods. Except for some real Jin royalists who have retired now or went to the frontiers and will not be affected for a while, the rest are people who are quite trusted by the emperor. The list is not long, but Really shocking.

After reading it, the emperor quietly folded the paper, put it in his sleeve, and asked him, "Gu Aiqing, I trust you the most."

Gu Fan bowed his head: "Yes."

The man who seemed to be ten years old glanced at him and turned around: "I believe in you, don't let me down."

Gu Fan bowed his head again: "Yes."

At that time, he suddenly felt a little sad in his heart, not because he calculated the person in front of him, but because he witnessed the loneliness of an emperor with his own eyes.Standing in a high position brings pain and loneliness, especially for a suspicious and sensitive person like the emperor. Maybe in this life, he can't really trust anyone, even his parents and brothers. Even his most trusted minister.

But now, he is about to face the fall of the emperor.

King Jin didn't tell him what the specific action was, and he didn't ask. After all, everyone had a bottom line. After the preparatory work was done, he kept guessing what kind of method he would use. Having achieved his goal, he cleared up his suspicions.

He watched the emperor walk up to the altar step by step, and the surrounding guards surrounded the whole place airtightly, as if...

It's like a execution ground built for itself.

Now, the prisoner wearing invisible shackles has reached the highest place, and he is praying loudly to the gods in the sky, maybe he is praying for the prosperity of his dynasty, maybe he is praying that he can last forever.

Then, he suddenly staggered and fell to the ground.

The accident happened so fast that no one could see clearly what happened. The emperor stretched out his hands in vain, as if trying to grab something, but in vain. In the end, he just dropped to his side, heavily The body fell to the ground and made a heavy sound.The eunuch around him - Gu Fan recognized it, it was the eunuch who stopped him outside the palace the day he invited the emperor, and he was quickly hiding something in his sleeve, and then went to Help the emperor on the ground.

It's a pity that the body wrapped in the dragon robe has lost its breath.

In this way, under the watchful eyes of the public, a generation of emperors who had been worshiped and criticized by thousands ended his short life in such a tortuous and bizarre way.

At the same time, a system voice suddenly sounded in Gu Fan's mind:

"Congratulations. Mission accomplished."
