Chapter 240 Why is it you



Pei Changying suddenly pinched Gu Qingrou's chin, tightened his fingers, and forced her to look up and look at him.

His hands were gradually gaining strength, as if he wanted to crush Gu Qingrou's chin.

Pei Changying looked at the woman in front of him fiercely, without a trace of love in his eyes: "Gu Qingrou! Why is it you? Where is Gu Sang?"

"Why are you here? Why are you wearing her clothes?!"

"What on earth is going on?"

Gu Qingrou's tears suddenly flowed down.

When she saw her beloved being so cruel to her, no matter how much she tried to escape, she was brought back to reality.

It turns out that reality is so cold and cruel.

"Your Majesty, I have swapped places with her. I love you and cannot bear to watch her snatch you from me."

"She doesn't want to be the queen at all. Only I will stay with you forever. By now, Gu Sang would have already escaped from the palace!"

After saying that, Gu Qingrou closed her eyes.

Prepare to face Pei Changying's next anger.

It’s better this way. Without Pei Changying’s love, she will die at Pei Changying’s hands.

At least, being killed by his own hands can be considered a kind of happiness.

The expected suffocation did not come. Gu Qingrou was slapped hard on the face, and then pushed away by Pei Changying: "Bitch!"

Gu Qingrou was already having difficulty moving because of her heavy wedding dress, and after being pushed hard by Pei Changying, she rolled down the stairs.

In front of all the civil and military officials in the court, she, a queen, was as embarrassed as a dog.

Gu Qingrou was dizzy from the fall and she tried hard to get up.

Warm blood flowed from his forehead.

She heard Pei Changying start giving orders.

"Go and bring Grandma Gu Sang to me!"

Pei Changying has always been worried that Gu Sang is cheating, and even he knows in his heart that Gu Sang will not just sit there and wait for death before marrying him.

So even on the wedding day, Pei Changying ordered the secret guards to watch Grandma Gu Sang.

Upon seeing this, the Prime Minister immediately volunteered to lead the guards to capture Grandma Gu Sang.

The fake grandmother was imprisoned in a palace not far from here. The prime minister led the guards over and said, "The emperor has ordered me to take this old lady to the front."

"You don't need to watch over me. Now hand over your true identity."

When the prime minister took out the dragon pendant that symbolized imperial power, the secret guard carefully compared it before handing the person over to the prime minister.

The prime minister took the old man away from the former court and entrusted him to the protection of his confidants.

"Old man, something might happen up ahead. Please wait here for a while."

"These are my trusted aides. I will send someone to pick you up after the previous matter is over."

It was the first time for the old lady pretending to be Grandma Gu to see such a high-ranking official.

Oh, no, she also met the emperor.

I heard that the Prime Minister was actually worried about her personal safety and sent someone to protect her.

The old man was so moved that his eyes welled up with tears: "Sir, this is an emergency. You don't need to send anyone to protect me."

"My life is not worth dying for. I have you, my lord, the eldest princess, and the goddess, who care about the world. It is a blessing for all of us. Being able to use me is a blessing I cannot even ask for."

The prime minister nodded and said nothing more, but he did not call his confidant away either.

When the prime minister returned to the front hall, he saw Pei Changying's face looking at him with accusation.

The emperor sat high above in the main seat, his face stern, obviously suppressing the anger and anxiety in his heart.

The Prime Minister stepped forward and saluted, then explained in a pretentious manner, "Your Majesty, when I went to fetch the old man, I found that no one was there."

"I have already sent my men to search the palace."

Pei Changying was startled and stood up suddenly from his seat: "No one? How could there be no one! Could it be that the rebels sneaked into the palace and took away Grandma Gu Sang?"

"Who is it? Who is helping them secretly?"

Pei Changying slammed the table hard.

His face was full of anger. He suspected everyone, but he trusted the prime minister very much and did not doubt the prime minister's loyalty at all.

After hearing that Grandma Gu was taken away, my first reaction was that Grandma Gu was rescued by the traitors.

Pei Changying's expression suddenly changed, and he thought to himself that the person would not be taken away so easily, he must still be in the palace.

Pei Changying immediately called the Imperial Guards and ordered:

"Search the entire palace, even if you have to turn the whole palace upside down, to find the man for me."

The guards began searching the palaces.

As time passed, the prime minister became increasingly anxious, wondering why Gu Sang and the eldest princess had not yet arrived at the palace?

Didn’t we agree to take action today?

The Imperial Guards have been dispatched. No matter how well he hides the old man, as long as he doesn't leave the palace, he will be found within an hour.

The prime minister racked his brains to think of a reason to delay the search by the guards.

Just at this moment, something strange happened.

"Bang--"

A deafening noise rang out from outside, and a guard covered in blood ran over, shouting as he ran: "Oh no, Your Majesty!"

"The rebels have invaded the imperial city!"

“Whoosh!”

A sharp arrow with the force of lightning hit him right in the middle of his eyebrows.

Under the gaze of all the officials in the court, the guard was killed right before their eyes!

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

All the officials who were standing there staring in confusion suddenly reacted.

The rebels are coming!

How dare the princess and the others do that?

Before they could panic and shout to protect the emperor, and before the generals could react, they heard cold footsteps not far away.

“Dongdongdong——”

Tens of thousands of feet stepped on the floor in unison, and the vibrations were heard from far away.

Looking up from afar, one could see lines of enemy soldiers rushing into the palace. This scene made all the ministers present turn pale as paper.

"It's a traitor! Protect the emperor."

"Quick, protect the emperor."

"The Princess is coming!"

The ministers rushed to Pei Changying in panic. The guards arrived and blocked the way in front, protecting the civil and military officials and the emperor behind them.

Here it comes.

Tens of thousands of soldiers rushed into the palace, and corpses fell to the ground one after another.

The air was filled with the smell of blood.

Pei Changying was protected by the ministers at the back. He opened his eyes wide and stared at the eldest princess who was walking in the front. His face suddenly became very ugly.

He shifted his gaze slightly and saw Gu Sang walking beside the eldest princess.

Gu Sang, who was supposed to be imprisoned in the palace and was dependent on him, now inexplicably came in with the eldest princess to kill him. This must make Pei Changying furious!

“Gu Sang!!!”

Pei Changying's eyes were red as he shouted at the woman opposite him, "How dare you! How dare you treat me so cruelly, Gu Sang, how have I ever wronged you?!"

Gu Sang on the opposite side raised the sword in his hand and pointed it directly at Pei Changying's eyebrows.

This scene.

It hurt Pei Changying deeply.

He couldn't believe it!

The woman he loved deeply, the woman he held in his heart, actually didn't love him at all and even wanted to kill him?
