Chapter 360 Blessing
Gu Mingzhen and the little emperor looked at each other and laughed. The little emperor laughed especially happily. He knew that Sister Xia was a real person!
Gu Mingzhen smiled and explained, "Madam Xia, look here - the passes and roads from the capital to this direction and this direction are still controlled by the court, and they are not completely surrounded. Moreover, there are tunnels here, here, and here, and the entrances and exits of the tunnels are also firmly controlled by our people, so you don't have to worry. Prince Xin took this route. He mainly had to escort the two late emperors to Luojing to enjoy the prosperity, and his safety was fully guaranteed."
Xia Daohua nodded. It seemed that the Gu family was really different from ordinary royal families. They were very humane.
Xia Daohua hesitated for a moment, and finally asked: "Since we are not surrounded and killed, why do we still need to issue an imperial edict to ask the princes and generals from all over the country to come to the rescue?"
Gu Mingzhen smiled and said, "Even if we are not surrounded to death, we cannot flee in panic! The Gu royal family must live and die with the capital, so naturally we have to let these pillars of the country with soldiers come to rescue us."
Xia Daohua nodded again. In fact, she didn't understand what he said. She only understood the literal meaning. She had no idea about Gu Mingzhen's deeper purpose.
Gu Mingzhen looked at her slightly confused expression and knew that she did not understand his subtext. He did not remind her, but only told Xia Daohua a few people whom she could contact in an emergency and whom she could trust absolutely.
Xia Daohua took the paper roll from Gu Mingzhen's hand, opened it and took a look. After she remembered clearly, she immediately stuffed the paper into her mouth. As soon as she closed her mouth and thought about it, she had actually smuggled the paper into the space supermarket.
Gu Mingzhen and the little emperor both showed expressions of surprise and admiration on their faces.
Gu Mingzhen smiled and pointed at Lao Wei and said:
"This old man, relying on the fact that he is the late emperor's man, now dares to show off to everyone. He keeps shouting that he wants to leave the palace and spend his old age in peace, and he even shows off proudly everywhere, saying that he is now a relative of yours!
Later, I asked someone to check on Wei Shiqi, and found out that he was a good kid, so I agreed to the old man's request.
I don't have that much free time on weekdays, so please keep an eye on him for me from now on.
What if Wei Shiqi is not a good person and is unfilial to this old man, and makes him angry openly or secretly? You can't hide it from me!"
Gu Mingzhen said these words with a smile, but Old Wei burst into tears after hearing them. He knelt down tremblingly and knocked his head to the ground: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Then he turned to the little emperor and kowtowed again: "I am too old to stay in the palace any longer. It would be bad if I missed my job. Your Majesty, please be well!"
It seems that Lao Wei is really excited, otherwise he would not have said this.
But the little emperor was very humane and personally stepped forward to help him up:
"Eunuch Wei, you must live a good life after leaving the palace. Eat more delicious food, have more fun, and if you are short of anything or encounter any difficulties, just send me a message and I will have someone send it to you."
Old Wei was crying loudly, and the little emperor gave him a thin and soft handkerchief to wipe his tears.
Xia Daohua went up to Lao Wei and held his hand: "Lao Wei, don't cry anymore. If someone didn't know, they would think you were not leaving the palace to retire, but going to the mine to dig coal!"
Old Wei hiccuped, then burst into laughter with tears. After a long while, he finally controlled his expression and reluctantly followed Xia Daohua out of the palace.
The organization in Old Wei's hands has been completely handed over to Gu Mingzhen and the little emperor, and he has completely retired.
From now on, his glory days will be gone, and the days when a bunch of disciples surrounded him and showed him their courtesy will be gone forever, but the risk factor in his life has almost been reduced to the lowest level.
He felt emotional, but knew that he couldn't ask for too much. After all, being able to get ashore safely was already a fluke. Being able to return to a peaceful life and enjoy his old age was a blessing that many people in the palace could not even ask for!
Thanks to my dear book friend "Night Snow Scene" for the reward.
