Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

Zhao Fan folded his arms and looked at Gu Yunji, who was dressed in eunuch uniform, with a half-smile: "Your Majesty is seriously ill. Mr. Gu is not waiting in the palace, so what are you doing here?"

Gu Yunji's heart moved slightly when he heard this, and he noticed something was wrong.

Cheng Yan couldn't lie to him. Since Bai Xingjia said that Feiyuwei had fallen to King Wu, he was now his enemy.

But if Zhao Fan and others participated in the rebellion, there is no reason why he would not know the situation of Emperor Jingfeng, let alone know that the palace was surrounded by King Wu's people. In this case, why would he ask this?

Gu Yunji suddenly had an idea - the rebellion was a personal act of Qin Quan, the commander of the Feiyu Guards. The lower-level Feiyu Guards had no idea what was going on. They were just following orders and had no subjective intention to rebel.

However, Zhao Fan belongs to the middle level in Feiyu Guard, neither above nor below. It is impossible for him to know everything at his level, but he probably doesn't know very clearly, otherwise he wouldn't ask Gu Yunji like this.

In any case, the matter has come to this, and if you want to get out of the palace smoothly, you can only take a gamble.

Thinking like this, Gu Yunji simply took a few steps forward and lowered his voice to Zhao Fan: "Master Zhao, I don't want you to beat around the bush anymore. If you let me go today, the court will definitely remember your contribution in the future. Otherwise, you won't have anything if you help the villain. Good ending."

As expected, Zhao Fan narrowed his eyes dangerously and said in a cold voice: "Mr. Gu, please speak clearly. I am only following orders. How have I ever helped others to do evil? I am not a big or small official, and I cannot interfere with the decisions of the superior officials. Today, However, who wins or loses from above has nothing to do with me.”

Gu Yunji chuckled a few times, his eyes showing sarcasm: "Master Zhao, as a Feiyu Guard, has been in the prison for so many years. He has never seen anything. I didn't expect to be so naive in the end."

"Zhao Fan, this is the heinous crime of treason against the nine tribes. Do you dare to look me in the eyes and say, do you really know nothing? The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. When the rebels are wiped out and the blame comes down from above, do you think you Can you escape intact?"

Zhao Fan was suddenly startled, subconsciously pulled out half of the long sword, and said with a serious expression: "You, what on earth do you want to say!"

How could he really know nothing? Just a few words could not change anything, so he had to deceive himself and tell others that he was just following orders and praying that King Wu would win.Otherwise, for him, even Lingchi's execution would be considered light.

Gu Yunji's expression was calm and he stared at him with stern eyes: "Master Zhao, I know you are a person who understands current affairs. King Wu is looking at the powerful one this time, but everyone in the court knows that he has been coveting it for a long time. We will Nothing prepared?"

"King Wu is bound to fail. It's just a matter of whether the process goes smoothly or not. I understand that you can't help yourself. If you let me go today, pretend you haven't seen anything. I will report your achievements to His Majesty in the future."

Zhao Fan's eyes flickered, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't speak for a while.

Gu Yunji seemed calm, but in fact he was extremely nervous. His life and death depended on Zhao Fan's thoughts at this moment.

He suddenly felt a little lucky that it was Zhao Fan he met today. The two of them had some friendship in the past, so they were able to give him time to talk so much nonsense. If it had been another Feiyu Guard, he would have been killed on the spot.

Zhao Fan was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "...If the person above me wins, what should I do if I am held responsible for letting you go in the future?"

When Gu Yunji heard that there was something going on, he hurriedly said: "I will never betray you, Mr. Zhao! If...if unfortunately, we really lose, then I can only accept my fate and will not bite you. But if we win, wait What’s interesting to you is that you will be promoted to a higher position, and you will become rich and powerful.”

Zhao Fan fell silent again, seeming to be really thinking about his choice.

Gu Yunji looked at his hand still on the scabbard, swallowing his saliva nervously and not daring to move a step.Suddenly, Zhao Fan raised his head and approached him quickly, and Gu Yunji's heart suddenly rose to his throat.Just when Gu Yunji thought he was going to do something to him, the next moment, he saw Zhao Fan scream, hold his stomach and take a few steps back, falling to the ground in pain: "You damn eunuch, how dare you sneak attack on me?" …”

Gu Yunji was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly understood. He whispered a thank you to him, then quickly turned around and got out from the damaged part of the palace wall.

"Father, Father..."

In the palace, Emperor Jingfeng slowly woke up after taking the elixir. When he opened his eyes, he saw Li Jinche's face that looked anxious but contained greed.

"Rebel!"

Emperor Jingfeng suddenly came to his senses and slapped Li Jinche in the face, his chest heaving up and down with anger: "Ahem, cough, cough! Get out! Get out of here..."

Li Jinche was stunned by the beating and reflexively wanted to get angry. When he looked up, he saw the sickly angry face of Emperor Jingfeng. Thinking that he needed to sign the edict to establish the throne, he instantly lost his temper and shamelessly approached him. : "Father, don't be angry. You are not in good health. What will you do if you get angry again?"

"You see, my request is not too much. I just ask you to make me the crown prince, and I don't ask you to abdicate immediately. Anyway, you have long disliked Li Jinze. Didn't you say that he wanted to murder you? A How can a prince who intends to murder his father and usurp the throne be qualified to inherit the throne? He should be deposed sooner or later."

Emperor Jingfeng sneered: "That's right. How can a prince who intends to murder his father and usurp the throne be qualified to inherit the throne? Treason, how can you have the face to ask me to make you the prince?"

Li Jinche choked, then quickly returned to normal, and laughed unscrupulously: "Father, whatever you say, since I chose to take this step, I am prepared to bear the infamy of the ages, and you will be the same." A curse."

"You'd better recognize the current situation, see whose hands you fall into now, and sign the imperial edict obediently. I can also provide you with medicine in the name of the prince, so that you can feel more at ease during the last journey. Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I can just depose Li Jinze as a commoner and still save his life."

"Otherwise, it will make me angry and everyone will have a hard time."

Emperor Jingfeng looked at him steadily, with deep and unclear eyes, and suddenly said: "Do you really think so? As long as I make you the crown prince, you will give me medicine for my illness? I... know that I won't live long. Damn it, I just want to live a more comfortable life in these last days."

Hearing this, Li Jinche hurriedly said: "Of course! As long as you sign the imperial decree appointing me as your prince, I will serve you in an orderly manner by your bedside, fulfill my duty as a son of man, and bid you farewell."

Emperor Jingfeng's eyes flashed and he said, "Okay, then bring the imperial edict over and I will sign it."

Li Jinche did not doubt that he was there, and happily brought the forged imperial edict to Emperor Jingfeng. He could not hide the joy on his face: "Father, look, the text has been drafted for you. All you need to do is... Just sign at the end..."

Emperor Jingfeng's attention was not on the imperial edict. Instead, he turned his head and stared at Li Jinche's side face. Suddenly, his expression became serious, he took out the sweat towel in his arms and strangled Li Jinche violently. neck, and said ferociously:
"Sir, I will die for you right now!"
