Chapter 1004 He?
"Another coup in Jiankang?"
Gu Qingcheng was slightly surprised when she received the news.
She quickly asked, "Where's Chen Duan?"
He just ascended the throne and hasn’t even gotten comfortable yet.
Moreover, he has led troops for many years and has tens of thousands of elite soldiers under his command.
Moreover, there is the miracle created for him by Gu Qingcheng. As a "Son of Heaven" who descended from the sky and was appointed by heaven, he has an aura of royal majesty.
Even those court officials who "do not talk about strange and supernatural things" may not believe it, but they certainly will not offend it easily.
This is no longer a simple regicide, but blasphemy.
"Chen, Chen was killed!"
Zhou Shao's voice was low and a little melancholy.
As a counselor under Chen Duan, Zhou Shao once assisted his lord with all his strength.
People all have feelings.
After spending a few years together, Chen Duan is considered a kind person.
At least he treated counselors like Zhou Shao and Yang Wei with great respect, which was quite the behavior of a wise ruler who respected the wise and humble.
If Chen Duan had not made a stupid move before and if Queen Gu Qing had not been so outstanding, Zhou Shao and others would not have turned to another wise leader.
Although Zhou Shao and his men gave up on Chen Duan, it did not mean that they really regarded their old master as an enemy.
They only had different positions towards Chen Duan, but no personal grudges against him.
So, when he first heard the bad news, Zhou Shao himself couldn't describe how he felt.
There was astonishment, sadness, and a sense of inexplicable loss.
"Chen Duan is dead?"
Gu Qingcheng was also shocked.
How long has Chen Duan been sitting on the throne?
At most it will not exceed three months.
"Your Majesty, perhaps this is fate!"
The evildoer hiding in the sea of consciousness couldn't help but jump out to make his presence felt.
In fact, with its God's perspective, it knew about the palace coup as early as when it happened in Jiankang.
However, His Majesty has issued an order not to spoil the plot.
Although I don't quite understand why His Majesty, who always likes to do whatever it takes, refuses to cheat or take shortcuts in real life.
However, Huoshui has been with His Majesty for many years and has long respected and feared her.
Huoshui never dared to disobey Gu Qingcheng's words.
Not to mention, now that Gu Qingcheng has been upgraded, she is no longer an ordinary executor, but has become the main god.
As long as she wants, she can easily format the disaster!
I can't afford to offend him! I dare not offend him! So, after returning to this world, Huoshui quietly hid in the sea of consciousness.
Even if he knew everything that happened in this world, he would not dare to reveal it to Gu Qingcheng easily.
At this moment, Gu Qingcheng had already heard about the "Jiankang Palace Incident" from other people, and Huoshui felt that it would not be against the rules if he jumped out to discuss it.
It said with emotion, "In the previous life, Chen Duan was defeated and killed during the Tangquan Palace Incident."
"In this life, he had the opportunity to change his fate!"
Huoshui did not say this casually, but had reasons and evidence to support his statement.
"He climbed up to your high position and got the chance to sit on that chair because of his luck as an emperor."
Gu Qingcheng raised her eyebrows and communicated with Huoshui through her consciousness: "Huoshui, what you mean is that whether it's Yuwen Heng in the previous life or Chen Duan in this life, they don't have the fate of being an emperor."
"It's me. I was born with the destiny of a phoenix. Whoever marries me can become the emperor?"
What a fatalism.
It sounds like it makes sense.
"Yes, yes! You are born to be a phoenix!"
When Huoshui heard Gu Qingcheng's words, he nodded repeatedly.
Your Majesty is really good at summarizing. All I said was not as vivid as her one word.
Gu Qing was born with a phoenix destiny. Whoever she marries will become the emperor.
This is how Yuwen Heng is, and this is how Chen Duan should be too.
Unfortunately, in this life, Gu Qing gave up on Yuwen Heng first, so Yuwen Heng was defeated.
Even Jiangling could not be taken.
He was in a dilemma and had nowhere to go, just like a dog that had lost its home.
Gu Qing chose Chen Duan. Chen Duan did not die in the Tangquan Palace coup. Instead, he became the winner and ascended the throne.
But this guy felt so good about himself that he brought his own death upon himself, causing Gu Qing to give up on him again.
So, Chen Duan also died!
"Yes, this is all destiny!"
"Your Majesty, you are the lucky girl of this world..."
The more Huoshui spoke, the more excited he became, and he even felt a sense of pride and honor.
Alas, my Majesty is so awesome! Gu Qingcheng: ...
Gu Qingcheng curled the corners of his lips, still looking indifferent.
It seemed that being born with a phoenix fate was just a fact to her, not a myth worth bragging about.
"Who did it?"
Gu Qingcheng was doing two things at once. While chatting with Huoshui with her consciousness, she did not ignore Zhou Shao who was below her.
After asking the question, before Zhou Shao could answer, Gu Qingcheng said in a low voice: "Let me guess, is he from the Wang family?"
Gu Qingcheng has not forgotten that Chen Duan broke his engagement with her because General Wang wanted to marry him.
Marriage is a double-edged sword.
Of course it can help Chen Duan connect forces and stabilize the capital.
However, it is also easy to set a trap and let Chen Duan fall into it due to carelessness.
Chen Duan is not an ordinary person. Although Jiankang is the territory of the Wang family, Chen Duan has soldiers under his command.
If there was no opportunity for Chen Duan to let down his guard, even if there was such a thing as "God's will", Chen Duan would not be killed so easily.
"A wedding ceremony! Even a ceremony to crown the queen!"
Gu Qingcheng looked in the direction of Jiankang and spoke in a relaxed tone.
Zhou Shao: ...You are worthy of being my lord, you are indeed wise.
With such intelligence, even these grown men have to admire her.
"My lord, your guess is correct."
"Wang was suspicious and ambushed people during the ceremony of the Queen's coronation. She broke into the imperial city and beheaded Chen in public."
Gu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment: "In public?"
This is too crazy.
Even Chen Duan came to power through treason.
But he has "miracles".
He is the king chosen by heaven.
Moreover, since ancient times, even traitors who wanted to kill the king and seize the throne mostly did it in secret.
There was probably only one family that acted without concealment and in public: the Sima family.
This family set a very bad precedent. Not only did they get a bad reputation, but they also suffered retribution themselves.
"Yes! He killed her in public."
Even Zhou Shao felt a little psychologically uncomfortable.
Although counselors like them don't believe in the idea of being appointed by heaven.
Many auspicious signs and miracles in history were the result of the hands of counselors.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
But, the emperor is the emperor after all.
Since ancient times, there have been distinctions between rulers and subjects, fathers and sons, and between high and low status.
This is etiquette and ethical principles.
Once there is chaos, the whole world will also be in chaos.
Therefore, in order to maintain peace in the world and to gather and stabilize people's hearts, we must also maintain the necessary rules.
Wang, however, broke the rules.
Killing the king in public, how insane! "General Wang is not such a rebellious person."
Gu Qingcheng frowned slightly.
Gu Qingcheng knew the head of the Wang family and the current general.
Whether in the previous life or this life, this person is no ordinary person.
Although he was born into a noble family and lived in the south of the Yangtze River, he did not develop the incompetent character of "calling a horse a tiger".
He is a man of both military and literary talents, and he has great ambitions.
He was one of the few capable ministers and generals in the Southern Dynasties.
With his brains and shrewdness, he would never do such a stupid thing that would "give others a handle".
"This was not done by General Wang, but by his eldest son Wang Qi!"
Wang Qi?
Abandon? Or other homophones.
Gu Qingcheng was slightly surprised.
Although the saying “a name suits a person” is not always true, most parents have certain expectations when naming their children.
People who are in poor health will give themselves names like "Qubing" and "Guinian".
I hope my children will be healthy and live long without any illness or disaster.
What does it mean to name it "Abandoned"?
Could it be that the parents really hate this child?
But if you disliked him, why did you let him be born into this world?
Although Gu Qingcheng is an ancient native, her thoughts are not old-fashioned or decadent at all.
She never thought that having and raising children was a "favor."
Never think of children as appendages of their parents.
Gu Qingcheng did not agree with the ancient grace of giving birth and raising children, nor did she agree with the behavior of not treating children as independent individuals, and she even felt a little disgusted.
If you don't like children, don't have them.
Once you give birth to a child, you must take good care of it.
Not only did they fail to fulfill their parental duties, but even their names were given such vicious names.
If one's mind is not so strong, it may become distorted or even become an antisocial villain.
etc!
Could it be that because of his family, Wang Qi had such a miserable life that he became so crazy? Killing the king in public! Wait a minute——
Wang Qi!
In my previous life... uh... it seems there was such a person too.
Perhaps influenced by Gu Youyi, Gu Qingcheng sometimes thought about her past life recently.
The trajectory of Gu Qingcheng's own destiny changed.
Many major events are also different from those in the previous life.
However, some important people still have their own lives.
Their trajectory was not affected much.
For example, Wang Qi.
In my previous life, I was also a crazy person.
He was born into the Wang family of Langya, but was a bastard with a flawed status.
He was neglected by his family and suffered abuse since childhood.
His bad childhood made him develop a paranoid and crazy personality.
He looks weak, but he is actually very brave.
He was supposed to inherit his father's career and become the number one war god of the Southern Dynasty.
But, he has character flaws.
He was so tyrannical that he lost the support of the people. In the end, even his lieutenant wanted to kill him secretly.
Wang Qi did not die on the battlefield, but was strangled to death by his attendants while he was drunk.
A crazy and brave general who died in a very miserable way.
In this life, Yuwen Heng did not achieve success, and Chen Duan became the emperor of the Southern Dynasty.
He also married into the Wang family and appointed Wang's eldest daughter as queen.
Wang Qi was the half-brother of that girl from the Wang family.
Although they are half-relatives, considering Wang Qi's situation, Gu Qingcheng can guess that Wang Qi and the Wang girl must have no feelings for each other.
Otherwise, he would not have beheaded Wang's husband at her wedding.
What's more, Gu Qingcheng had reason to suspect that the palace coup was not done by the Wang family, but by Wang Qi.
"Your Majesty, speaking of which, you and this Wang Qi have some history."
The source of trouble is deep in the sea of consciousness, actively making its presence felt.
"I?"
Gu Qingcheng was a little dazed.
I have completed too many missions and experienced hundreds or thousands of years.
Even though she had an extremely high IQ and a superb memory, she had forgotten some things in this world, especially the people and details that had nothing to do with her...
