Chapter 602 Guo Xiangyan

"Where are the people? Get out of here!"

His temper was getting worse day by day, and he stared at the door with a sinister look. He didn't know who would be the first unlucky person, but it turned out that Guo Silang, who was dressed in military uniform, came in.

When he saw him, the emperor suppressed the anger in his heart.

"I didn't summon you today, what are you doing here?"

Guo Silang was his cousin, but since he was promoted to the deputy commander of the Jingji Division, he became more and more alienated from him. On weekdays, Guo Silang would never enter the palace without the imperial edict, so why is he like this today?

Sitting on the couch, the emperor looked free and easy.

He didn't know that the weather outside had changed a long time ago, and thought that Guo Silang had something to ask him, so he had already set his posture. The arrogant expression made Guo Silang feel really disgusted, so he didn't talk to him any more, and spoke directly.

"I have been the emperor for seven years. I wonder if my cousin feels really satisfied?"

The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at him with displeasure.

"Don't be so arrogant. Don't try to show off in front of me just because of the blood relationship of the Guo family. Do you think I can't bear to do anything to you?"

"Can't bear to do it? How can Your Majesty be reluctant to do it to me, a cousin who has no use for me? My grandfather and aunt can be kicked away by you. Who am I?"

"You are self-aware. It's a pity that my grandfather didn't understand this, so he ended up being abandoned. This is not my fault. The imperial power has never allowed others to sleep soundly."

At this point, Guo Silang had nothing to say.

He took out a family letter from his arms and then read it out.

"My grandfather died of illness in Jinling City half a month ago. My grandmother followed him because she was grateful for the friendship between husband and wife for many years. The Guo family lost their elders, so they wrote a letter asking us to go back to mourn. Cousin, do you know about this?"

The emperor didn't care.

How could the family letters of the Guo family be faster than the news of the royal family? So of course he knew about this a few days ago, but he didn't say anything because he didn't want it to have a big impact.

For him, there was not much difference between his grandfather's death and life. Those who had been involved with the Guo family were almost dealt with by Xing Xiang and Dingping Hou, and the only one left was the thorny Gu Shaoyu.

However, a lot of his military strength has been eroded in the past few years, so the emperor believes that at most five years, all the past glory will become a thing of the past, and he will be the only power in this dynasty.

Therefore, he coughed twice and looked at Guo Silang with a very calm expression.

"My grandparents are old, and their peaceful death is also a happy funeral, so I decided to posthumously confer him the title of the first-class Duke of the Protectorate. This title can be inherited. There are not many people in the Guo family who can support the family. I think you are very good, so Silang should discuss with your uncles and brothers when he goes back this time, who should be pushed out to sit in this position!"

The first-class Duke of the Protectorate has a good reputation.

Unfortunately, Guo Silang could still see through such an obvious plot to alienate people.

It was nothing more than using this high position and generous salary to share the Guo family. If so many Guo family members had their eyes on this position, they would naturally know how to please the emperor. At that time, the Guo family would not need external intervention, and I am afraid that the internal situation would be in chaos.

Thinking of this, Guo Silang had completely lost the bond of affection for this cousin, so he wiped the tears in his eyes, and said the last truth to the ruthless emperor in front of him.

"Your Majesty the Emperor likes to calculate people's hearts so much. You must know that those who do evil will eventually die! My poor aunt has been buried in this palace all her life, otherwise she should not live like this now!"

After saying that, Guo Silang left the bedroom without looking back.

After he left, a few palace servants trembled at the gate of the palace, but they were all young palace servants, but the eunuch Liu who followed the emperor every day was not seen.

"It's really outrageous! Is it his turn to teach me a lesson? The Guo family kid is so rude, I wonder if he was instigated by someone behind the scenes!"

At this point, even if it's not, it must be.

As for the candidate, Gu Shaoyu is naturally the most suitable. Anyway, he is born with pride, so it's not surprising that he has such an idea. Maybe he even plans to win over the Guo family and give him a show of strength!

With a cold snort, the emperor shouted to the outside.

"Go, call Dingping Hou to me."

The palace servant trembled, not knowing how to answer. The emperor became more and more dissatisfied and yelled at him.

"Are you deaf?"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..., the Imperial Guards just surrounded... the bedroom, saying that no one is allowed to enter or leave without permission!"

When the emperor heard this, he was so shocked that he almost thought he was hallucinating.

How could it be possible?

The Imperial Guards have always been his confidants, how could they do this?

Could it be that someone inside was instigated to do something bad to him?

Then how did Guo Silang get in just now!

A series of questions flashed through his mind, and at this moment he was sweating all over and began to panic.

He also fought his way out of the thorny road, but at that time, there was Guo Xiang in the civil service, Gu Shaoyu in the military service, and Mr. Wen was the master of the counselors. Many dangers were resolved one by one by these people before they even came to him.

Therefore, he always thought that the only opponent to the throne of the emperor was his fourth brother and his people, but he didn't know that if it weren't for these people blocking him from front, back, left, and right, his road to the emperor would definitely be ten times or a hundred times more difficult.

"No, no, I have made a lot of arrangements over the years, how could I be trapped by the Imperial Guards so easily? No, come, come and find Eunuch Liu and the Imperial Concubine for me! Find them!"

He was furious, but it was useless.

If they could find them, they would have found them long ago, but now, they don't know where they are, how can they find them?

In the palace, it was quiet in a silent manner.

From the outside, it seems that there is nothing wrong, but only those who are in it know that this is like the process of a giant python swallowing, long and desperate.

Outside the imperial city, Xing family.

When Xing Xiang saw Gu Shaoyu, he was really surprised. He had already had countless ideas in his mind, but he still pretended to be calm and said

"General Gu, if I remember correctly, the court has not issued an order to summon you back to the capital, so why are you here?"

"Hasn't Prime Minister Xing always boasted of being extremely smart? It shouldn't be hard to guess that Shao Yu would be here!"

Prime Minister Xing's hands behind his back were clenched into fists.

His face was slightly pale. If he was standing here, it could only mean one thing, that Sui'an City and even the Imperial City had been controlled.
