Chapter 133 I don’t know in this life

The dim candlelight in the Modu Temple reflected his pale face.

He was panting heavily, taking in more air than out. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that he couldn't last more than a few hours.

The emperor who used to be flattered by everyone in the past was now surrounded by only servants.

His queen is not here, his children are not here, only he is quietly waiting for the last moment.

The person Mo Du took his last breath to wait for was not his Han Cheng, but Wen Yuanzhi.

When Wen Yuanzhi stepped into the tomb hall, the emperor and his ministers looked at each other as before.

To a certain extent, the relationship between the two goes far beyond that of a monarch and a minister, and is more like a confidant. It is the encounter between Boya and Ziqi.

Without Mo Du, Wen Yuanzhi's talents would have nowhere to be implemented; without Wen Yin, Mo Du would not be able to stabilize the country, and Chu and Yan would rule together.

Modu didn't have the strength to speak anymore. Every time the supervisor on the side said something, he nodded with great effort.

"Your Majesty said that the edict to establish the crown prince should be placed behind the plaque in the Qinzheng Hall, and it will only be read to the public after your Majesty's death."

"Yes," Wen Yuanzhi responded, kneeling beside the bed.

The night wind was a little cool, but it couldn't blow away the depression in the crypt.

The oil lamp in the palace was about to burn out, so the maid in charge brought a new one and replaced it.

The somewhat dark hall suddenly became much brighter.

"Wen Xiang...Wen Xiang", a young eunuch ran in in a panic.

The little eunuch was careless and ran to Mo Du's bed while shouting.

Wen Yuanzhi stood up and dragged the young eunuch farther away from the dragon bed. In this last moment, Wen Yuanzhi wanted Mo Du to finish quietly.

"What's the matter? Say."

The little eunuch was out of breath just now, and he still hasn't recovered yet. "Xiang Wen, it's not good, the Qinzheng Palace is in trouble..."

Qinzheng Palace?Wen Yuanzhi's head buzzed.

The edict to establish the crown prince is still in Qinzheng Hall!
Wen Yuanzhi didn't care about Modu anymore, got on the sedan chair and drove him out of the tomb hall.

At the Qinzheng Palace, all the palace officials on duty and off duty got up and went to the moat to get water.

The emperor was seriously ill and everyone in the palace was worried. They were worried whether the new emperor would let him out of the palace after Mo Du died, and whether the good job he had finally obtained would change.

Mo Du was seriously ill and did not come to the Qinzheng Hall for several months. The palace people were so tired that the water in the copper vat with water in the Qinzheng Hall evaporated.

The summer in Liangzhu is dry, and the wooden hall becomes more flammable under the sun.

Looking from a distance, the Qinzheng Palace was filled with flames soaring into the sky. The raging fires were flying everywhere with the wind, devouring everything in their path without restraint.

The closer the sedan came, Wen Yuanzhi, who was sitting in the sedan, could even hear the crackling sound of the beams and columns burning.

By the time Wen Yuanzhi arrived, the fire had been basically put out, and only a frame of the entire Qinzheng Hall was burned.

Waves of heat hit, making those who came close sweat and wet their clothes.

When Wen Yuanzhi walked down, the ground was covered with charcoal, and the wind blew sticky hair everywhere on his body and face.

Burned like this, the edict must have been completely destroyed.

The fire came out of nowhere. The Qinzheng Hall was rebuilt after Modu ascended the throne. It was considered a new hall. The asphalt used for fireproofing was still on the pillars, so the wood would not have rotted.

Several old palaces next to Qinzheng Hall were affected to some extent, but they were not as tragic as Qinzheng Hall.

Logically speaking, the old palace is in disrepair and is easily flammable due to water leakage.

Unable to wait for Wen Yuanzhi to question the palace people present, the Chief Superintendent of the Tomb Palace ran along the palace roads, using his unique high-pitched voice to spread the news of Mo Du's death to every corner of the palace.

"His Majesty is dead!"

"Your Majesty... is dead..."

Everyone present knelt on the spot and kowtowed in the direction of Mo Du.

The original plan was for the new king to take the throne before his death, but the fire at Qinzheng Hall and the destruction of the edict to establish the crown prince undoubtedly cost the new king a lot of knuckles in his lifetime.

Wen Yuanzhi stood on the cold palace road and looked at the palace where Mo Du was. At this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of loneliness and sadness. His hands trembled slightly and he clenched a corner of his clothes with great effort. He knelt down and kowtowed, and stood up immediately. He grabbed the eunuch on the palace road.

Things happened so suddenly, the death of Modu and the fire in Qinzheng Palace happened almost at the same time.

If the edict to establish the crown prince is there and Wen Yuanzhi reads it in public, the new emperor's succession will be justified.

Without the imperial edict, all the princes in the palace must earn money for their own future.

Even if the prince has no intention of taking the throne, the prince's mother's family will not give up this opportunity.

When the news of Mo Du's death spread out of the palace, the prince, the aristocratic family, and the court officials all had their own plans.

As long as the new king is not established, the court will be in turmoil.

Before the new king is established, this news must not be spread out, causing the court to be in turmoil.

The little eunuch who was stopped stopped and listened to Wen Yuanzhi's instructions and went to the toilet hall.

The Qinzheng Hall was not far from the Tomb Hall, and Wen Yuanzhi stopped the young eunuch in time.

At this moment, apart from the people serving in the Modu Temple and the people fighting the fire in the Qinzheng Hall, no one in the palace knew about the death of the emperor for the time being.

But Wen Yuanzhi didn't dare to gamble, he had to make sure nothing went wrong.

In the early morning, Wen Yuanzhi left the palace calmly and calmly.

The guards at the palace gate were on duty all night. In the middle of the night, sleepyheads came up. If they couldn't stand it anymore, they would find a place where no one was around to take a nap.

Wen Yuanzhi saw it with his own eyes and didn't say anything, so he just let them go.

After Modu passed away last night, Wen Yuanzhi took half of Modu's fish charm and merged it with his own, and mobilized the inner court guards to strictly guard all exits of the palace. Even the dog cave was guarded by palace guards.

The guards at the palace gate were specially arranged by Wen Yuanzhi, in order to be tight on the inside and loose on the outside, so that the people guarding the news at the city gate would think that there was nothing serious going on in the palace.

As Wen Yuan expected, as soon as he left Dongbianmen, two people followed him.

A man dressed as an oil seller walking around the streets pretended to be buying breakfast at a breakfast stall.

Wen Yuanzhi smiled, it seemed that the two of them were not in the same boat.

Wen Yuanzhi deliberately ignored them, walked two more streets to a dessert shop and bought a package of peach blossom cakes, and then returned to the house leisurely.

The two of them saw Wen Yuanzhi entering the alley. Perhaps they were afraid that Wen Yuanzhi would find him again, so they walked around the entrance of the alley twice before leaving.

Wen Yuanzhi's carriage entered the house slowly. Different from what the two people outside saw, Wen Yuanzhi's expression in the small house was not so calm.

The sun had just come out, and it was very hot in the summer. Seeing that Wen Yuan had not returned all night, and not knowing the current situation in the palace, he couldn't help but become anxious.

When Wen Yuanzhi came back, Gou Yue was sitting on the steps of the hall waiting for him.

Seeing Wen Yuanzhi return, Gou Yue stood up and said, "A Yuan, how are you?"

Wen Yuanzhi didn't say much to Gou Yue and took out the two-in-one fish charm from his arms.

"Gou Yue, His Majesty passed away."

Gou Yue didn't react for a moment, there was a roar in his ears.

She hated him, but when she heard the news of his death, she couldn't be happy at all.

She thought she would never know the answer to whether he had any regrets when he shot her.

The brother she grew up with was gone after all. His embrace seemed so reliable to her when she was young. She once thought about sleeping on his back forever and racing with him to the end of the world.

The death of the emperor was a big event, but there was no news at all from Liangzhu.After thinking about it again, I came back to my senses. If the emperor passed away without mourning, there must be something big going on.

"Gou Yue, listen to me, we have more important things to do."

"Before his death, His Majesty left an imperial edict to establish the crown prince in the Qinzheng Hall. Last night, the Qinzheng Hall was suddenly flooded, and the imperial edict to establish the crown prince disappeared."

Gou Yue listened carefully with her eyes widened.

"At this point, the new king has not yet been established. If there are disputes among the princes, Liangzhu will be in chaos."

"Okay, what do you need me to do?"

Gou Yue knew that this pass was enough to determine the life and death of Da Chu. When the emperor was in power, it was always a time when a country was in internal trouble.

"Gou Yue, it is inconvenient for me to show up at the camp on the outskirts of Beijing at this time. You have only been in Liangzhu for a short time, and many people don't know you. You take the fish charm to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, where there are defenders who have just been transferred back from outside the customs. "

"General Zhou in the camp was promoted by me personally. If you tell him to put out the candle, he will understand what you mean."

Gou Yue nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell General Zhou that the candle is out."

Wen Yuanzhi nodded in response, "By the way, don't ride a horse. Go ahead. Don't act too anxious. Someone may follow you. Don't let them know the clues."

Gou Yue responded and wanted to go out.

"Wait a minute, do you still remember the city defense of Liangzhu?"

Liangzhu had a city defense map a long time ago, and all the Liangzhu defenders had seen it.

It marked the location, orientation, deployment of troops, height of the city walls, and most importantly, three secret passages into Liangzhu from different directions.

Also because the secret passage could not be known to too many people, Mo Du ordered the city defense map to be burned down.

Not many people have seen the city defense map, including Modu, Wen Yuanzhi, General Han, and several Chaozhong Humerus.

I had also seen Gou Yue when he was a general.

"Remember, there are three of them, one of which has never been used again due to disrepair and collapse."

"Okay, one more thing. After meeting General Zhou, I asked him to select elite soldiers from the army to enter Liangzhu through a secret passage and hide them in the tunnel. I have other plans."

"it is good!"

"Also, let him send someone to the royal court quickly, tell Yuanyi about His Majesty's death, and let him return to Liangzhu quickly."

"Okay, I'll take it down."

After opening the door, Gou Yue, who had been furious just now, suddenly calmed down.

To outsiders, it looked like she was going out to buy roasted pork.

As soon as they came out of the alley, Gou Yue discovered something unusual. It should be the person Wen Yuanzhi just said was following him.

Gou Yue steadied her steps and tried her best to look calm.

Gou Yue could feel that someone was following him, and he definitely had some skills on him.

This is a bit difficult.

If they were just wandering around Liangzhu, Gou Yue would always have a way to fool them.

But if he wants to go to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, letting them see him is always a hidden danger.

Gouyue looked left and right along the streets from the small house to Chaoyangmen.

Sometimes he looked at the seller of silver hairpins, and sometimes he looked at the seller of masks. He also packed two buns for himself and ate them while walking, but Gou Yue never found a chance to get rid of the people behind him.

There is no other way. If we don't reach the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, things may change again. We can only go out of the city gate first to see if we can get rid of them, or kill them directly.

Strangely, after leaving the city gate, several people did not follow, but Gou Yue could faintly feel the murderous aura behind him.

not good!They came here for the fish charms on their bodies.

After Da Chu took control of the Central Plains, the area it ruled was too vast. In order to effectively deploy troops and generals, Modu listened to Wen Yuanzhi's suggestion and created the fish charm.

Half of the fish talisman is in Mo Du's hands, and half is in Wen Yuan's hands.

The fish charm alone cannot be used. Only when the two are combined into one can the troops be dispatched.

The army of Dachu did not recognize its generals, only the fish charm.

In other words, whoever holds this fish charm today can mobilize the soldiers and horses of the camp on the outskirts of Beijing.

Gou Yue walked and watched. In a one-to-many battle, she wanted to find a terrain that was beneficial to her.

"Stop! Hand over the fish charm and spare your life!"

Before Gou Yue could find cover in a plain on the outskirts of Liangzhu Capital, the opponent had already taken action.

For a moment, several figures flashed in front of Gou Yue's eyes.

When they all stood still, Gou Yue counted six people on the other side, two of whom had just followed him in Liangzhu City.

Six people surrounded Gou Yuesheng. Seeing Gou Yuesheng's beauty, the leader actually joked at this moment and asked everyone to be careful not to hurt the little one's flesh.

Gou Yue made a soft noise, and while several people were joking, Chang Ning took out her sheath and wiped the neck of one of the "salesmen".

Blood fuels the battle.

The few remaining people suppressed their laughter and stepped forward together to seek justice for their dead brothers.

Several people were not afraid to gouyue together, and as soon as they raised the knife and dropped it, two more heads fell to the ground.

The remaining three people are no better than the first few. They really have some boxing skills.

Seeing Gou Yue's power, the three people formed the Crane Wing Formation.

Crane Wing Formation, as the name suggests, is like a white crane spreading its wings. The main general is in the middle and the deputy general is on the side. The two wings can be quickly extended to form an encirclement.

Gou Yue has seen the Crane Wing Formation in military books. The attack of this formation is not strong and the power is not concentrated. However, the three people in the formation can quickly find the flaws of the opponent.

Gou Yue couldn't delay any longer. The longer he waited, the greater the chance that the other party would discover the flaw.

It is not a pity to die, but with the Duyu Talisman on his body, he can mobilize the entire army of Chu.

If it falls into the hands of others, I don't know what they will do with the fish charm.

Wen Yuanzhi was sitting uneasily in the house. While he was sitting up, he didn't know whether he was worried about Gou Yue?Is it a fish charm?Or Dachu?

Gou Yue has already set out for two hours, so he should have returned a long time ago.

She had been stationed in the suburbs of Beijing and knew where the camp was.

To put it bluntly, even if she didn't know the location of the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, it was time for her to come back.

Wen Yuanzhi had mixed feelings in his heart. Since he knew that Gou Yue was a girl with small goals, it was undoubtedly the best choice for Gou Yue to go to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing at this moment. However, he still regretted what he had done out of selfish motives.

Although I have blocked the news in time, no one can say for sure about this kind of thing.

Maybe the person present at that time was one of the princes in the court, Xizuo.

They had already followed themselves, and they might also follow Gou Yue. They might have guessed that she was leaving the city just to mobilize troops, and they might even have guessed that Gou Yue was carrying a fish charm.

Wen Yuanzhi didn't dare to think any further. He wanted to take the Liangzhu guards to find Gou Yue, but he couldn't let her put herself in danger.

As soon as he left the study room, he sat back and said, "No, if the Liangzhu guards move, the old thieves in the court will know that something has happened."

When he became an official at a young age, he experienced many big scenes. He faced a battle between Chu and Yan, the Chu army invaded Liangzhu, and the Chu army kicked open his door. As the prime minister of Yan at that time, he was not so confused.
