Dressed as the Cannon Fodder Ex-Wife of the Regent

Gu Linchao, who was far away in the capital, suddenly palpitated.

Xiao Yan noticed it and stretched out his hand to help him, "What's the matter with you?"

Gu Linchao put his hand on his heart. Just now, there was a sudden pain here. It was fast and urgent. The pain was unbearable, but it quickly disappeared.

He frowned and whispered, "It's okay."

When Xiao Yan heard the words, he let go.

The gates of the capital are now wide open, and the people and the court officials are lined up on both sides, waiting to welcome them into the city.

Gu Linchao only brought some people into the city, and the other soldiers were all guarded outside the city.

When he entered the palace, Gu Heng had long since disappeared. As early as when the army was under the siege of the capital, he fled, and now he does not know where to go.

But even if he ran away, Gu Linchao still had his guilt read out.

He persecuted heroic officials, deliberately provoked war, destroyed the stability he had won with great cause, acquitted the criminals who treasoned the country and colluded with the enemy, and reused them. During his reign, he never made useful political achievements for the country and the people. King Xiang, who made great achievements in his great career, also forcibly recruited men to join the army, and the people complained about this...

There was silence in the hall, only Xiao Yan's voice read out Gu Heng's guilt.

The courtiers bowed their heads and listened quietly.

After Xiao Yan read out Gu Heng's guilt, he suddenly took out an imperial decree and handed it to Lord Wang, Minister of Rites, "This is the last decree of the late emperor, and Lord Wang is also asked to read it out on his behalf."

The last decree of the late emperor shocked everyone present on the spot.

Lord Wang was also really taken aback. He unfolded the will and looked at it. When he saw the contents above, he calmed down.

He cleared his throat and began to read aloud.

"The emperor's edict said: During Gu Heng's reign, if he does anything that is detrimental to the great cause of the country and persecutes my son's coming to the court, he will immediately abolish the throne, be demoted to a commoner, and my son's court will take over the throne..."

Almost as soon as Lord Wang’s voice landed, the courtiers reacted, knelt down immediately, and respectfully said: “Respectfully invite the new emperor to ascend the throne!”

...

At this time, King Xiang's mansion was full of manuscripts, and the atmosphere was solemn. In front of the mourning hall, Wen Nongrong, dressed in filial piety, knelt there and handed paper money into the brazier.

Her eyes were already red and swollen from crying, and A Tuo Jiang Hua and others were silent and stayed by her side.

At this moment, Steward Wang led a person and hurried in.

"Princess, the lord is back." Butler Wang said softly when he approached.

Everyone looked back and saw Gu Linchao behind him.

Wen Nong Nong, who was still kneeling in front of the mourning hall, suddenly got up and ran towards him.

"My lord." She threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

Gu Linchao stretched out his arms to embrace her. After a while, he walked towards the mourning hall with a sad face, then lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down.

"My son is late, I hope my mother rests in peace." He bowed deeply.

Seeing that he didn't want to get up for a long time, Wen Nong, who was kneeling beside him, had to wipe her tears and gently persuaded: "The mother was very peaceful when she left, don't be too sad, the mother would not want to see you like this... "

Only then did Gu Linchao straighten up, and after a long time, he asked, "Have you chosen a date?"

His voice was unusually hoarse, which was very different from the previous one, but Wen Nong Nong only thought that he was rushing back all the way and was exhausted, so he didn't think much about it.

"I chose, considering that this place is far from the capital, I was afraid of delays on the road, so I chose to leave tomorrow."

After the Empress Dowager passed away, she was going to be buried in the imperial mausoleum. She was afraid that the journey would be long and she would delay on the road for a long time. The body of the Empress Dowager would be damaged, so she decided to personally send the Empress Dowager back to Beijing for burial tomorrow.

Although the Empress Dowager said not to tell Gu Linchao and didn't want him to be distracted, how could she not tell Gu Linchao about such a big thing?

And he didn't even see the last face of the Queen Mother, how much remorse should he feel in his heart?

So after the death of the Empress Dowager that day, she sent Wang Houde to the capital to deliver the letter.

I just didn't expect that Gu Linchao just came back.

"By the way, did you meet the prince on your way back? I asked him to deliver a letter to you, and it's been two days since I left."

Gu Linchao paused and shook his head, "No, he may have taken a path."

Wen Nong Nong heard the words, but still didn't think much about it. He held his hand and said, "It's fine if you come back. Tomorrow, you will personally support the coffin and send the Empress Dowager back to Beijing for burial."

She didn't know that he would come back so soon, so she planned to send the Empress Dowager back to Beijing in person tomorrow, but since he came back, considering that there were still two children who needed her milk, she decided to stay.

Gu Linchao didn't seem to have expected her to have such an arrangement, so he looked stunned, and immediately nodded, "Okay."

Wen Nong Nong hasn't closed her eyes for two nights since the death of the Empress Dowager. When he saw him back, he wanted to go back and feed the children, so he stood up and said, "You stay here first. , I'll go back and come to accompany you later."

Gu Linchao blinked in his slightly narrowed eyes and nodded, "Okay."

For a while, everyone in the mourning hall dispersed, wanting to leave the space for Gu Linchao.

Wen Nong Nong returned to the main hospital and fed the two children one after another.

When it was time to feed Gu Huaijin, because she hadn't closed her eyes for two days, she was so sleepy that she fell asleep unknowingly.

Until a figure walked in, she seemed to see Gu Linchao in a daze.

Just as she was about to open her eyes, the next moment, her whole body suddenly fell softly.

The person came to support her in time to prevent her from falling to the ground.

Seeing Gu Huaijin in her arms, he pursed his lips and watched for a while, then carried the child to the couch.

Then he picked up a blanket, wrapped Wen Nong Nong whole, picked it up horizontally, and walked out.

When the servants in the yard saw him come out with Wen Nong in his arms, they didn't think much about it, and still went about their own business.

Tomorrow, the body of the Empress Dowager will be sent back to the capital, and there are still many things for them to prepare.

The visitor hugged Wen Nong Nong and left the main courtyard unimpeded, passed through the garden, and came to the front courtyard.

Seeing that he was about to walk out of the house holding Wen Nong Nong, Lv Qiao hurried up from behind.

"My lord, where are you taking the princess?"

The visitor looked back at her and said, "The princess is tired, I'll take her out for a walk."

Lv Qiao thought it was strange that the body of the Empress Dowager was still in the mourning hall. Even if the prince wanted to take the princess out for a walk, it shouldn't be at this time, right?

But what the lord is going to do, how can she guess? Then he said politely, "My lord, since the princess is tired, why don't you let her rest in the room."

"It's okay, this king will bring her back in a while." The person said casually.

Lv Qiao frowned, this time, her doubts became heavier.

"But……"

The visitor frowned, already impatient, and said solemnly: "Go down."

Seeing this, Lv Qiao didn't dare to say anything more, and was about to retreat when a nimble figure jumped over her head and grabbed the face of the person who came.

Seeing that it was Bai Li, Lv Qiao was taken aback and quickly shouted, "Bai Li, stop!" That's the prince, is this girl crazy?

Bai Li didn't stop, "Lv Qiao, this person is not a prince at all, go and call Wen Shizi."
