Traveling through time and space
Chapter 283 Other People's Business
"My excuse is that He Sizhe's condition has just improved and he needs absolute rest. I suggest that the delegation rest here for one night. I am also feeling a little unwell and need to rest well after taking the medicine." The crowd didn't waste much time and teleported him to Feng Yan's palace. Everyone stood at the corner of a hall. He Chengxin waved his hand and motioned for them to follow him. Gu Yuanyuan led everyone to follow and soon entered a hall. The hall was very bright. There were a few little eunuchs who were dozing off and followed He Chengxin into the main hall quietly.
"Your Highness," an elderly eunuch guarding the door of the room said in a surprised voice.
"Uncle Yuehai, please keep your voice down here and don't wake anyone up."
"Who is it?" A deep voice came from outside the hall. Gu Yuanyuan was struggling with what to do. The voice also woke up several sleepy eunuchs.
The eunuch who made the Tenth Prince call him Uncle Yuehai pointed to the screen next to him and motioned everyone to hide behind it. When there was no sound of footsteps coming in, he stood up and rubbed his eyes, "Chief Chen, this old servant accidentally dozed off and fell to the ground. Speak softly, everyone, speak softly. The emperor has finally fallen asleep, don't wake him up again." Eunuch Yuehai walked to the door and stopped everyone from coming in.
"Eunuch Hai, you should be careful too. The Crown Prince has repeatedly instructed us to take good care of the Emperor and let him rest well."
"Yes, Chief Chen, I understand. Please rest assured, Your Highness." The old eunuch Haiyue knelt on the ground and saluted, then slowly walked away.
"Eunuch Hai, be careful and don't let us take the blame for you." A young man came over and scolded him.
"Yes, I was getting married in my dream, sorry to bother you, old man."
"Yes, yes, yes, it's my fault. I know I'm wrong." Gu Yuanyuan clearly felt He Chengxin's anger. When everything calmed down, eunuch Yue Hai returned to the door of the room, went into the room himself, and motioned the people behind the screen to go in. Gu Yuanyuan and everyone else followed him in. Yue Hai closed the door, "Your Highness, why are you back?" The old eunuch looked at the group of people next to him and pointed.
"This is my friend, Yue Hai. No one knows that I have returned. I want to get the emperor's handwritten edict today."
"But the Emperor has already fallen asleep. I heard that the Crown Prince has had people searching for the Imperial Seal in the palace every day these past few days, but they haven't found it."
"Uncle Yuehai, don't you know where to put it?"
"I really don't know. Wu Hao is dead. No one knows where he is unless the emperor himself is willing to tell me. But I saw that it was the prince who gave the emperor medicine. The emperor is sometimes lucid and sometimes confused, but no one in the Imperial Hospital can tell me. I want to send a letter to the prince's palace, but I can't."
"You two guard the door," Gu Yuanyuan didn't want them to waste time like this, "Prince, there is no time. You said that the imperial seal can't be found now, and without the imperial seal, the prince can't ascend the throne. And was the old emperor harmed by the prince?" Gu Yuanyuan asked concisely, and the old eunuch nodded, "What is the approximate range?" Gu Yuanyuan asked, and the old eunuch Yuehai looked at Gu Chengxin, who nodded, indicating that he could speak.
"I don't know either. I only know it's in the palace, but the prince has dug up the entire palace several times and still hasn't found it."
Gu Yuanyuan sat on the ground, using the moon in her space to sense the hidden object. After scanning the surroundings, the moon in her space reminded her that it was in a tile on a roof in the northeast corner of the palace.
"Northeast corner?" Yue Hai pondered. "Your Highness, that's the cold palace. But how can I get there?" Gu Chengxin looked at Gu Yuanyuan, whose scalp tingled. How could he possibly find it? Wouldn't that be like going there in a big way, exposing himself? But he couldn't refrain from doing what he had promised, and there were so many benefits involved. He couldn't waste time either.
Gu Yuanyuan said nothing, nodded to Eunuch Yuehai, and disappeared with everyone, but this time they stayed on the roof of the cold palace.
"Overlord, Diaohui, Falcon, you guys are over there in the palace. Circle a few times, call a few more times, and focus your attention over there. We need to find something over here." Gu Yuanyuan released the three eagles from the space to use them to disrupt the line of sight. Soon, a long hissing sound was heard in the sky. "Quick, be careful." Gu Yuanyuan also called out Xiaoyue'er under the moonlight. The place just mentioned was too general, so it would be faster to let her and Bai Ze search for it separately. "You two are on guard, and you two go and look for it too." At this time, Gu Yuanyuan and He Chengxin were standing on the roof. Alua and Ahan were on guard on both sides, while on the other side In an instant, the lights were brilliant, and more than half of the entire palace was lit up. Various sounds were everywhere, but He Chengxin's heart should not be here. I will live up to my promise. The products produced by this space must be fine products. It took less than two quarters of an hour for Bai Ze to bring something. It was very dark here, and Gu Yuanyuan didn't look good, so he handed it to He Chengxin. He touched it carefully and nodded. Just when Gu Yuanyuan was about to go back to the palace he had just been in, the lights here were also on, and the footsteps were gradually getting closer. Gu Yuanyuan had no choice but to hold back and wait until the group of people with torches walked away before returning to the house he had just come from.
"This damn bird is making so much noise that I can't sleep."
"But there's nothing I can do. It's pitch dark and I can't see."
"Be careful, don't sleep anymore, go in and take a look."
"Let's not go. What's there to see?" As soon as Gu Yuanyuan and his group stopped inside, the old eunuch Yue Hai looked at the people who suddenly appeared, opened his mouth in shock, and almost screamed. When he saw that it was He Chengxin and his group, he quickly covered his mouth with his hands and left the room.
"Uncle Gen, why is it so noisy outside?" Yue Hai walked out of the room and asked the people on night watch, leaving the door ajar when he went out.
"I don't know. Just take good care of the old emperor and don't meddle in other people's business." Yue Hai came back soon and closed the door. He Chengxin looked at it himself and handed it to Yue Hai.
"Your Highness, this is it, this is it," Yue Hai was very happy.
"Princess, is there any way to wake the Emperor?" He Chengxin pointed to the bed behind him. Alua and Ahan turned around to guard the door. Gu Yuanyuan went to see the person on the bed. After a closer look, she saw that the person was not only poisoned by a chronic poison, but also so thin that only bones were left. She was really powerless and there was no way to save him. Gu Yuanyuan shook her head. "Princess," He Chengxin saluted, "I am not the crown prince. Only the will can make me the legitimate successor. Otherwise, I am a traitor and everyone can kill me."
"Your Highness, please stand up and speak. This princess will do her best. Please wait here." Looking at the old man on the bed, Gu Yuanyuan had no choice but to feed him spiritual spring water. After waiting for a while, she heard two gurgling sounds, and the person on the bed really opened his eyes slightly.
"Your Majesty, I, your son Chengxin, pay my respects to Your Majesty," He Chengxin knelt down and kowtowed, lowering his voice to greet.
"You are finally back." The emperor on the bed wanted to sit up.
Gu Yuanyuan took a few steps back and handed Ahan a small paper bag. "This is a sleeping pill. It can make the people outside sleep a little longer. Your Highness, let me make it short." Gu Yuanyuan said.
"Father, the prince wants your life. Do you still want to pass this position to the prince?" He Chengxin asked directly.
"Xin'er, he is the legitimate son. Father didn't know his evil ambitions. Father didn't know he was so cruel. Your mother died at his hands." The old man on the bed was crying. "Father knew his time was up, he couldn't go on."
"Father, as compensation to my mother, please write a will and pass the throne to me. I will govern Fengyan well and will definitely be better than you, Father."
"Father, the Emperor doesn't know where the Imperial Seal is. Father, the Emperor doesn't know."
"Where could the Imperial Seal be?" He Chengxin sighed. "In my heart, the person I care about most is probably my brother, the Crown Prince. He was raised by me personally." He Chengxin said this with a certain self-deprecating air. "Is it possible for you to copy a few words?" He Chengxin held out a piece of paper.
"Xin'er, what do you want to do?" The emaciated old emperor on the bed unfolded the paper. "You want to force me to write this decree of succession?"
"Yes, Father, Xin'er has made up her mind. Rather than letting Feng Yan be destroyed in the hands of them, Xin'er has decided to fight for her."
"So you are the traitor." The people on the boat were very angry.
"Father, I am only trying to set things right. If you don't write, I can't do anything about it. But I will definitely get what I want."
"Are you threatening me?"
"No, I simply want Feng Yan's legacy to last for generations. If that were to happen, I wouldn't care about the differences between brothers." He Chengxin's words were resolute. "Father, I came here secretly. I hope your beloved Crown Prince will return safely to the capital." The man on the bed spat out blood. "Father, please write. Time is running out for all of us."
"You're a rebellious son."
"Father, please don't forget how my mother died. How has the Crown Prince treated me all these years? This rebellious son in front of you will help you preserve your kingdom."
"Your Highness, it's been an hour." Gu Yuanyuan couldn't help but remind him, but unexpectedly Yue Hai came forward, moved a small table to the bed, and took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone to set them aside.
"Are you his?"
"Father, Yue Hai is my uncle and mother's cousin." He said this very calmly.
"Your Majesty, you have seen how the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince have acted over the years, and the Crown Prince has been feeding you poison. Aren't you awake yet?" Yue Hai really took out a dagger and put it against the old emperor's neck. The old emperor groaned a few times before picking up the pen.
"The Tenth Prince, He Chengxin, is a man of noble character, and I have greatly favored him. I decree that he shall succeed me as Emperor." When the old emperor finished writing and set down his pen, He Chengxin stepped forward to blow on it. "Father, the grudges between you and Xin'er's mother are over." Gu Yuanyuan saw that something had slipped into the old emperor's mouth as He Chengxin spoke these words. "Uncle, give it three more days. During these three days, do not let him die, no matter what." Suddenly, the old emperor collapsed from the bed.
"Your Highness, what did you give him to eat?" Gu Yuanyuan asked casually.
"The thing the Crown Prince gave my mother back then was a poison. From now on, he will never be able to utter a single word," He Chengxin said with relief. He breathed a sigh of relief, "I am going to avenge my mother."
"Your Highness, time is running out for whatever you want to do. Will this princess take you back?"
"Princess, we are already tied together. Let's go to the East Palace."
"Your Highness has done too many things in front of me today. Aren't you afraid that I might use this to blackmail you one day?"
"I am not afraid. I believe in the princess's character. She is a person of temperament and naturally understands my thoughts. Moreover, all the property in the Prince's Mansion can belong to her."
"Stop, I don't want to hear that nonsense. If I need help one day, Your Highness will have to help me wholeheartedly."
"I always keep my word." Everyone arrived at the rooftop of the East Palace again, but this side was much busier than the other side. "Princess, could you give me some sleeping pills? One hour's supply is enough. In another two hours, it should be dawn." Gu Yuanyuan was not stingy and directly took out ten packets. He had plenty of space for this stuff. Gu Yuanyuan realized that he probably wanted to burn this place. Gu Yuanyuan didn't care about him anymore. She pointed at A Yu and the others, motioning them to follow the prince, and then she disappeared. Gu Yuanyuan asked Yue'er to take her to the storehouse of the prince's mansion. Don't be polite. She collected a lot of gold, silver and treasures. She was not very reassured when she went to Mei'er's house one by one. In short, don't miss it if you pass by. She walked around leisurely. After Gu Yuanyuan finished her work quickly and answered the original question, she found that He Chengxin gave each of A Yu and the others a fire starter. He Chengxin pointed at a few people, and several people flew out at the same time. Gu Yuanyuan opened his mouth wide. It was so cruel. There were fires in many places. First there was the drug, and then there was a fire. This fire should have bankrupted people and money. While they were not paying attention, Gu Yuanyuan put his three eagles into the space. After they were all lit, Gu Yuanyuan took them away.
"My lord, I am leaving. Remember, you owe me something."
"Princess, don't worry. I will be grateful for your help for the rest of my life."
"Please rest assured, Your Highness. This princess and her people will forget anything that needs to be forgotten."
"Sir, we have something to say." A Yan stepped forward and whispered.
Gu Yuanyuan brought them to an open place and said, "Say whatever you want to say. I'm giving you this opportunity now, but it won't come back in the future." Gu Yuanyuan said very seriously.
"Master, we subordinates are willing to be your loyal warriors." A Yan knelt down, followed by A Han, and then A Yu and the other two knelt down.
"Okay, thank you for being willing to stay by my side. Just be the same as before. I'm not afraid of you telling my secrets, because you've seen how powerful I am, and you can't afford the consequences." Gu Yuanyuan gestured for them to stand up.
"Princess, don't worry. We are all your servants."
