Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

The two guards outside were stunned and looked at each other for a moment.

"Lord Wen..." someone said.

"Wen Qingzao has rebellious intentions. We can't keep him here any longer." Su Muying said coldly, "Do as I say immediately!"

The two guards looked strange, but they still lowered their heads and replied, "Yes!"

……

After listening to the report, Wen Qing chuckled softly.

"How did Su Muying fool Mu You and his gang?" Gu Yue, who was sitting opposite him, sighed, "Could it be that you were the one behind the scenes?"

Wen Qing came here to tell Gu Xu about Su Muying's current situation.

This was not Gu Xu's request, but after Wen Qing learned about what happened that year, he felt a sense of empathy for them, so he was happy to share this good news with the two of them.

Unfortunately, Gu Yue was the only one in the Duke Dunxin's mansion at that time.

"He was indeed smart in the past, otherwise he wouldn't have kept me in the dark in my dream." Wen Qing said softly, "This person has never experienced failure. Everything has gone smoothly for him, so a small bump would make him completely helpless, collapse, and even completely lose his mind."

This is not just a minor bump...Gu Yue thought.

He joked, "You want to take revenge on him for what happened in the dream. You are really a petty person."

Wen Qing smiled but said nothing.

Gu Yue then said what he meant: "Could it be that this is not a dream?"

Wen Qing himself was not quite clear about such things.

He touched the back of his hand and thought for a moment, then looked at Gu Yue: "I have a question, I wonder if Sir Gu can answer it?"

Gu Yue was alert and said nothing.

Wen Qing asked to himself, "Sometimes when I think about it carefully, I find that some things are not exactly the same as in my dreams. For example, I vaguely remember that the adoptive father of Young Master Gu seemed to have been brought to the capital and killed later. He was a complete bastard, not as smart as Master Gu."

After saying that, he carefully looked at Gu Yue's expression.

Gu Yue felt guilty: "How can I take a dream seriously?"

"What if it's not a dream?" Wen Qing asked immediately afterwards.

"If it's not a dream, then what is it? Zhou Gong dreamed of a butterfly, and the butterfly dreamed of Zhou Gong." Gu Yue said, "You thought it was a tragic dream, but you don't know if this is also a dream of yours? Maybe after waking up, you are not Wen Qing, nor are you in Bei Qin, but just an ordinary person in the world?"

Wen Qing frowned: "Wherever I am, that is the truth."

"Lord Wen answered without hesitation. He is truly a wise man." Gu Yue smiled. "I was once stuck on this question for a long time and couldn't extricate myself... If I could be as determined as you, perhaps I would have fewer entanglements."

Wen Qing pondered for a moment.

"If what is happening now is real, then it is just like what you said, I am vindictive." Wen Qing smiled, "But to be honest, I still have to thank you."

"What?" Gu Yue raised his eyebrows.

"If you and Gu Xu hadn't revealed your whereabouts and Su Muying hadn't sent that fake guy to intercept you on the road, I'm afraid I would still be in the dark. Not to mention... dreaming about the past."

"Who knows?" Gu Yue smiled.

It was indeed very lucky. If Wen Qing had not left Su Muying's camp, then it would have been difficult to end now. Gu Yue knew very well that his cleverness was just the information gap brought by the original text. When the plot really went beyond the original text, he would definitely not be able to defeat Wen Qing.

"When do you plan to kill Su Muying?" Gu Yue asked.

"It would be too easy for him to die." Wen Qing said calmly, glancing at him, "This man is the blood enemy of your Xiao Xu. Do you want him to die quickly?"

"No." Gu Yue said sincerely, "You said he smashed the jade pendant?"

"Yes, do you have any dirty tricks?" Wen Qing raised his eyebrows.

"Hey, look at what you said, what a dirty trick. Am I that kind of person?" Gu Yue chuckled.

……

It's time to decide the winner.

There were undercurrents in the court. Many officials were ready to make a move, but most of them were still thinking about saving their lives. These officials knew who would succeed them and who they should support as emperor.

The day has finally arrived to move the late emperor's coffin to Mang Mountain.

The eldest princess Qin Zhaohong and the crown prince Qin Zhaoyue carried the coffin together and walked to Mangshan, followed by the other princes and royal family members.

The sunny days in a row made the mountain roads of Mangshan solid and smooth. The funeral procession was extremely large, with the Donglin Guards leading the way and the Imperial Guards escorting on both sides. Paper money flew all the way, and the cries of grief resounded throughout Mangshan.

A huge flock of crows was circling in the sky.

Everyone's nerves were extremely tense.

The emperor's tomb had been completed three days ago, so fortunately nothing was delayed. The coffin was moved into the tomb passage under the eyes of the princes, and then a complicated spirit-calling ceremony was performed, and the last burial objects were placed in it, and the door of the entire tomb was completely sealed.

Qin Zhaohong looked at the closed door of the tomb, feeling neither sad nor happy.

She had no feelings for her father. From the beginning, whether it was her father or her mother, they seemed to have only Qin Zhaoyue in their hearts. She, a princess, was no different from many princesses in the past dynasties, all of whom were hidden in the margins and whose names were not recorded in history books.

Many people don’t even know who was born first between her and Qin Zhaoyue. After all, they only have the emperor’s eldest son in their hearts.

She just didn't want to live a mediocre life and achieve nothing. She also wanted to experience what it was like to be an emperor. She also wanted to stand on the top and see what breathtaking scenery there was. There were women who became emperors in the previous dynasties, so why couldn't she?

Qin Zhaohong thought that he had done his best. Qin Baiting's death was not painful. Wu Yue acted quickly, accurately and ruthlessly, and he died in a short time. As for the queen mother, she would respect her as the future queen mother and let her enjoy everything that Qin Zhaoyue could bring her when she was alive. What's wrong with that?

As for Qin Zhaoyue, she did not take action, but life and death are common in any battle for the throne, and she did not do anything to let him down.

Qin Zhaohong was the same. She was ready to be an emperor, and she was also ready to fail.

Next, he had to rush back to the capital to hold the coronation ceremony.

Qin Baiting died in a hurry, so it was natural that he did not leave behind an imperial edict of succession. However, the crown prince was young and strong, and he was the heir apparent when he ascended the throne, so there was no objection to him succeeding the throne.

Only a princess, Qin Zhaokong, was asked to help carry the coffin... This scene made many ministers suspicious, but after all, she was just a princess, the prince did not say anything questioning, and this matter was not without precedent - the ministers tacitly kept silent.

The team set out and returned to Luoyang city in a mighty manner.

Gu Xu was not among the burial party. He and the Wumen men were lying in ambush in the woods, guarding against possible abnormal situations.

The team slowly walked out of Mangshan.
