Chapter 382 The woman next to the Regent...looks so familiar.
Gu Wenzhe didn't want Gu Sichen to make enemies in the court, so he said, "My son is still young, what can he understand? My lords, there is no need to argue with a young boy."
"..."
"..."
Seeing that the atmosphere had cooled, Gu Wenzhe began to change the subject: "Eh!? Why didn't the Grand Tutor appear at the morning court today?"
Meng Xingde looked around and said, "I don't see the Grand Master."
Duke of the Protectorate: "It seems... His Royal Highness Prince Lin is not here either."
He looked around and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in the palace either."
……
Gu Sichen remained silent. It had been so long, the emperor... should come back.
Her return meant that the other person was back too.
Before Gu Sichen’s eyes, the scene of that day in the bamboo forest... the image of Shen Jingli walking towards him in a red dress flashed across his mind again.
He regretted his decision and could only comfort himself.
In fact, being able to see the emperor from afar seems to be enough, as long as she is happy and healthy.
……
At this moment, Huo Hongxuan walked into the hall with a dignified manner. He completely ignored the gazes of the ministers and walked straight towards the dragon throne.
After sitting down, he shouted: "Go to court!"
Ministers: (￣⊿￣)?
The ministers had only one thought in their minds: The imperial concubine had a miscarriage, and the Grand Tutor had gone mad! !
immediately……
There was chaos below. The ministers stared with wide eyes and looked at each other, bewildered by the confusing behavior of the Grand Tutor sitting on the dragon throne.
Discussions broke out.
"this?……"
"he…!?"
"Grand Master?!"
"We...were we going the wrong way?"
"?!!"
The ministers spoke one after another, hemming and hawing, without finishing any sentences. Was the Grand Tutor possessed by evil spirits, or was he having a seizure? ?
He was sitting on the dragon throne!!
The Emperor of Dayuan had sat on the throne, the Regent had sat on it, why did the Grand Master come to join in the fun? Without some strength, who would dare to sit there! ?
a long time…
Finally someone came to his senses and couldn't help but ask, "Grand Master, how can you sit on the throne without permission? Are you trying to usurp the throne?!"
Huo Hongxuan looked over when the first one to come out appeared and said with a smile, "It turned out to be... Zeng Wenlin from the Dushuijian... Mr. Zeng."
Huo Hongxuan gave a look to the guard beside him, who nodded and retreated. Soon, the guard escorted a middle-aged woman into the hall.
The woman was panicked and looked to her husband for help, crying, "Master, the Grand Tutor's men suddenly came and arrested me and Su'er without saying a word."
"Ah?!" Zeng Wenlin was shocked and angry, his face turned green. He looked at Huo Hongxuan in disbelief.
The other ministers were also worried, especially Gu Wenzhe, who was sweating profusely and was about to speak when he was stopped by Gu Sichen.
Gu Sichen shook his head at Gu Wenzhe, signaling him not to panic, and said in a low voice: "Mother is fine, don't worry."
Hearing this, Gu Wenzhe felt relieved.
……
Everyone present did not dare to act rashly, because they did not know...whether the family members in the mansion were in the hands of the Grand Tutor! ?
Huo Hongxuan leaned on the dragon chair and said, "Everyone, please don't panic. I ascend the throne today and cordially invite the families of all the adults to come to the palace for a visit."
"If my ascension to the throne goes smoothly, and everyone lives in peace, if something unexpected happens, then... whoever disobeys will have no descendants."
"..."
The people in the audience were all angry but dared not speak. The despicable Taishi actually used the safety of the elderly, the weak, women and children to threaten others! !
If such a despicable traitor is allowed to be the emperor, there will definitely be no peace in the future. But now, the old and young in the family have been held hostage, and no matter how much opinion he has, he dare not speak out easily.
At this moment, they actually missed Shen Jingli a little bit. At least the puppet emperor would not do such a despicable thing.
When the young emperor was still alive, almost no one cared about his face. He was frequently ignored, but he just laughed it off and did not hold a grudge.
……
Seeing that no one dared to speak, the Grand Master thought he had won the battle: "His Highness Prince Lin caught a cold, and several imperial doctors came to treat him but to no avail. When his life was in danger, the Crown Prince's filial piety was so touching that he devoted himself to taking care of him day and night in Prince Lin's mansion."
"So today, none of them attended court."
He raised his hand, and the guard beside him immediately handed him a memorial. Huo Hongxuan took it, casually threw it to the audience, and smiled evilly with pride.
"This is Prince Lin's request for leave. I have approved it."
"..."
The ministers gasped and looked at the memorials on the ground, suddenly feeling dry mouth, chest tightness and shortness of breath.
It seems...Prince Lin has also been threatened by the Grand Tutor.
Huo Hongxuan cleared his throat and said, "Since no one has any objections, let's go to court."
Just as he finished speaking, a familiar voice was heard from outside the hall.
"Huo Hongxuan, who gave you the guts? Get off the throne now!"
This cold voice... the people in the palace are so familiar with it. The long-missing Regent King has actually returned! ?
They moved to the side tacitly, consciously making way for Qin Yejue.
In fact, at the moment Huo Hongxuan rebelled, the ministers all assumed that the Regent was dead. Otherwise, how could the Grand Tutor have the courage to usurp the throne.
The ministers cast disdainful looks at Huo Hongxuan one after another. He was finished...completely finished.
Qin Yejue is not even dead yet, yet the Grand Tutor dares to rebel, what a fool, it is a waste of food if he lives! !
……
From the moment Gu Sichen saw Shen Jingli, his eyes never left her.
After not seeing her for a while, her complexion has become much rosier and she looks more charming. I guess she is getting along very well with Qin Yejue.
When she was sure that Shen Jingli was doing well, Gu Sichen curled her lips in relief. It didn't matter who he was with, as long as she was happy at the moment.
……
Qin Yejue's eyes were cold and a sharp aura emanated from his body. He held Shen Jingli's hand and slowly walked towards a higher place.
At this time, many ministers noticed that there was a beautiful young woman next to the Regent.
The more they looked, the more something seemed wrong. The more something seemed wrong, the more they looked! !
?! What happened…? ?
This woman looks very familiar, and is 80% similar to the late little emperor.
How could there be two people in this world who are so similar?!
Or are they the same person?
……
When he saw Qin Yejue, Huo Hongxuan was already frightened out of his wits, and he stood up reflexively.
His whole body was shaking, and the fear in his heart grew deeper as Qin Yejue got closer to him.
Huo Hongxuan trembled and said, "You...you...someone, come and kill him, quickly! Kill him!!"
The guards standing by didn't dare to take any action. If they went forward rashly, they would only end in death.
Shen Jingli: "If you don't want to die, don't come here."
A clear and melodious voice resounded throughout the Golden Palace, and the ministers came back to their senses. This woman was not Shen Jingli. Her voice was crisp and pleasant, very different from that of the late little emperor.
In other words, the regent went on a long journey and brought back a substitute for the little emperor! ?
