Chapter 57
Chapter 57
Su Mo and his party, who are based in Pyongyang, are always paying attention to the news from Kyoto.
After learning that Su Yang was going to announce his death today, Su Mo just smiled faintly, with the corners of his eyes raised, showing an indescribable evil spirit.
"Mo." Gu Shuning sat down next to Su Mo gracefully and called softly.
"Huh?" Su Mo turned his attention to Gu Shuning. Seeing her frowning and worried expression, she knew that she was worried about Gu Ziwen and others who were in the capital.After thinking about it, I still asked, "Ning'er, are you worried about General Gu?"
"Well, I don't know how father and the others are doing now?" Gu Shuning said with a sigh.
"Don't worry, Uncle Huang won't do anything to General Gu and others for the time being. What he wants is to ascend the throne in a legitimate way and let everyone obey him. If he does something to General Gu at this moment, he will lose the hearts of the people. With an excellent reputation, it is impossible for the emperor to take such a risk.
"Su Mo comforted Gu Shuning in a gentle voice. What she said was also the truth. What Su Yang wanted was righteousness and popular support, so at such a moment, it was absolutely impossible for him to do anything to Gu Ziwen.
Hearing what Su Mo said, Gu Shuning felt a little relieved, but still worried.Sitting very close to Su Mo, and feeling so uneasy in his heart, he leaned towards Su Mo and rested his head on Su Mo's chest.
Su Mo was so startled that she jumped up immediately. She didn't wear gold silk armor today, but wrapped it with a bandage, so as long as she touched her, she would know that she was a woman. Now Gu Shuning put her head on her chest, her body The reaction will be so great.
Gu Shuning was taken aback by Su Mo's movement, looked at Su Mo who was at a loss, and remembered the soft feeling just now, as if thinking of something, she opened her mouth and looked at Su Mo.
It can be seen that Su Mo's expression is awkward, and he hesitates to speak, which confirms the conjecture in his heart.For a moment, I only felt that the sky was dim and the earth was dark, and the feeling of dizziness was overwhelming.As if he had lost his soul, he stood up and walked into the house.
She is a woman, she is a woman!This sentence was repeated in his head, buzzing.
Tears, I don't know when they climbed up the face, and when I covered my face with my hands, I was shocked to feel wet.The current emperor is actually a woman, this is really the biggest joke in the world.
No wonder, she always treats herself with a respectful distance and respects each other as a guest.
No wonder she was unmoved even when she offered to sacrifice herself.
No wonder...
But why, why did my heart hurt and feel so uncomfortable after knowing this secret?
Gu Shuning pursed her lips, her face was pale and full of tears, she really felt the pain, the position of her heart was so painful.He tugged at the skirt of his chest with his hands and kept pulling.
Su Mo stood in the middle of the yard, looking at the people leaving, wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.Let her know the truth, Su Mo thought with his head down.
These days, she can see all the changes that Gu Shuning has made towards her.It's good to cut off her thoughts before her love is deeply rooted.Just thinking that the two of them might be strangers from now on, it is also uncomfortable for a while.
"Your Majesty, news has come from Beijing. King Ning announced your death and his enthronement this morning, but he did not expect to be exposed by Prince Qin and General Zhang. Now Beijing is in chaos. "The visitor half-kneeled on the ground and said the news from Beijing.
"Well, I see, get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Su Mo played with the folding fan in his hand, thought for a while and said, "General Zhang, this person is trustworthy." In Su Mo's memory, she and Zhang Yujin didn't have much contact with each other. Almost never met.
"Your Majesty, General Zhang can be trusted. He is the third generation descendant of the royal family, and he personally selected the hidden guards around the Emperor." Standing beside Su Mo, the man said cautiously.
"Huh? To protect the royal family?" Su Mo looked suspicious, waiting for the person in front of him to explain to her.
"That's right, it's the royal family. As the name suggests, the royal family is responsible for protecting the safety of the emperor. All the hidden guards, including the personal bodyguards around the emperor, are selected by them. And Zhang Yujin is the royal family The third generation descendant, why does the emperor think he became a general at such a young age?" The person who spoke was Gao Hao, the newly appointed minister of the Ministry of Rites.
He and Su Mo have known each other since they were young, and they were Su Mo's companions.On the day Su Mo ascended the throne, he also disappeared.He was sent to the border by Yang Ping to hone his training. After a few years, he returned to the capital again and was appointed by Su Mo as the Minister of Trust of the Ministry of Rites.
Speaking of which, Gao Hao knows much more about the royal family than Su Mo.Yang Ping regards her as a confidant, and has been carefully cultivating her. Yang Ping will tell Gao Hao many secrets, but she will not let Su Mo know.
This is the case with wanting to protect the royal family. Both Gao Hao and Yang Ping knew about it, but Su Mo didn't.
Yang Ping didn't deliberately not tell Su Mo about the royal family, but the royal family has always been unknown to the emperor.This has always been a tradition. Even Su Mo's late father, Su Ping, didn't know the existence of the royal family until his death.
"Well, I see."
"Your Majesty, what is our next plan." In fact, even Gao Hao couldn't figure out Su Mo's plan.
Coming back this time, Su Mo really has a big difference from her previous years.Unexpectedly, even he couldn't see through it.No wonder the queen mother told him that Su Mo's temperament had changed drastically, but he was much more suitable to be an emperor than before.
"Watch the fire from the other side." Su Mo said with a smile.
But the people who heard her words felt chills for a while. Hearing Su Mo's tone, it was as if they were watching two dogs fighting, the dog biting the dog, and they were very happy.It is obviously such an important matter, but Su Mo expounded it in such a mischievous and relaxed tone, there is an indescribable sense of disobedience.
"I understand."
After Gao Hao exited the courtyard, Su Mo's face brightened, and he called out, "Miss Chu, come out."
"How do you know I'm here?" Chu Huilian jumped down from the tree and asked.
"The people under your command are all gone today. Why don't you go to see the master?" When I got up early in the morning, I didn't see anyone from Yiquelou. I was wondering if it was Chu Huilian who came, and they all went to greet her. Chu Huilian went.Just now, with the tip of his eyes, he saw a light and beautiful figure disappearing from the tree, so he confirmed the conjecture in his heart.
"Sure enough, you are worthy of being the emperor, with such a meticulous mind." This compliment does not contain any irony, it is Chu Huilian's heartfelt praise.
"Miss Chu was joking, I don't know why Miss Chu appeared in Pyongyang."
"The army from the northwest is rushing towards the capital, and it will arrive in about half a month." Chu Huilian said calmly, as if she was talking about an unimportant matter.
But Su Mo, who heard the news, couldn't be so calm. He squinted his eyes, and a dangerous signal burst out.
"Northwest army, well, they dared to withdraw without my order!" Su Mo said, suppressing the anger in his heart.
Chu Huilian didn't answer, so she knew that Su Mo didn't know about the Northwest Army's withdrawal.
"Can you find out who ordered them to come back?" Su Mo suppressed his anger, calmed down and asked.
"It should be Prince Qin." Chu Huilian thought for a while before saying it.
"Well, I see. I have one more thing to ask Ms. Chu." The matter was far more complicated than Su Mo imagined, and she never imagined that the Northwest Army would listen to Li Xiuwei's transfer.The current situation is completely reversed. Even without Zhang Yujin's help, Li Xiuwei would not have the slightest difficulty in defeating Su Yang.
However, the rest of the army was fighting against the Turks, and she couldn't draw it out. She also had limited troops, so it was absolutely impossible to fight against the Northwest Army.
"You say so."
"I want to ask you to help me go to the border, sneak into the Huns army, meet their general, and give me a word."
"Well, you said."
Su Mo stood up, walked to Chu Huilian's side, confessed softly, and then retreated.
"Well, I understand." Chu Huilian smiled slightly. She was still worried about Su Guo, but now it seems that her worry is unnecessary.No one could have imagined that Su Mo still kept such a trick.But why did she do these things? Could it be that she really has the magical power to predict the future.
Even though her heart was full of doubts and suspicions, Chu Huilian would not ask Su Mo.Seeing Su Mo's posture, she is not going to tell her the cause and effect of all this, she just needs to do what Su Mo told her.
The author has something to say: In this chapter, Gu Shuning knows Su Mo's identity.
However, judging from the current process, it is important to deal with people like Su Yang and Li Xiuwei first.
I won't talk about their emotional drama, but explain a little bit in each chapter.
