The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1337 Can you act as a father on my behalf?

Chapter 1337 Can you act as a father on my behalf?
Gu Chengyu didn't expect the emperor to ask such a question suddenly, he opened his mouth, originally thinking to comfort the emperor.But as soon as he came into contact with the emperor's firm eyes, those high-sounding words could no longer be uttered.

"If you cooperate with the minister to give acupuncture, maybe you can survive for three months!" Gu Chengyu paused and said the most time limit.

The emperor gasped heavily when he heard the words, "It seems that this poisoning is like the king of Hades urging you to die! Things in this world are likely to be unsatisfactory. Even if you are imperial power and wealth, so what? If the king of Hades wants you to die in the third watch, he will not stay. You arrive at the fifth watch! This is your life! It’s not yours, and you can’t keep it if you force it!”

Gu Chengyu just felt a little uncomfortable when he heard it. After entering the court, he realized that people's desires are endless, and he also realized the darkness and helplessness of the officialdom.

He knew what the emperor meant, the throne was not his, and he won it, but he couldn't keep it.However, who can tell clearly about the things in this world?If the emperor didn't fight or grab it, maybe it would have been a pile of loess long ago.

"Can the eldest prince's eyes still heal?" The emperor's weak voice came up again, interrupting Gu Chengyu's fluttering thoughts.

"It's recovering. Although I can only see some dim double images, it's much better than before." Since he took Gu Chengyu's pills, he naturally had to be concerned.

"Can it be fully recovered?"

"This humble minister can't guarantee it!" Gu Chengyu raised his eyebrows, how could he make such a promise?
"I believe you!" The emperor glanced at Gu Chengyu, and the dead silence in his eyes, which was like a frozen lake, suddenly rippled.

Gu Chengyu suddenly felt like a stick in his throat, perhaps the eldest prince was the last hope for the emperor.

"I don't have many days to live, Gu Aiqing! I can only rely on you to wait for this country in the future. I hand over the eldest prince to you. Can you act as a father on my behalf?" The emperor looked into Gu Chengyu's eyes with tears in his eyes. With pleading.

Gu Chengyu looked at the emperor in shock, "Your Majesty?"

"If you do your best, you can procrastinate for the emperor for a while. It's not hopeless. How can you be discouraged?" Gu Chengyu suddenly became incoherent. He knew that the emperor dismissed the queen mother, perhaps because he wanted to explain the funeral, but he didn't know that the emperor actually Trust him so much.

"My body, I know it myself, is exhausted, why should I lie to myself? Life is just a few dozen years, and now it's just ending early!"

The emperor's desolate smile made Gu Chengyu silent. At this moment, he felt that no amount of comfort would be pale.For a person whose lifespan is about to pass away, I am afraid that he will not be able to listen to his comfort at this moment.

"The empress dowager is old, and I'm afraid she won't be able to take care of the eldest prince for a few years. The death of the father, the rebellion of the son-in-law, my poisoning, and brother Ye's blindness, each and every incident has dealt a great blow to the empress. She Now I can still hold on, it is all because of a belief."

The emperor coughed twice, struggling to sit up.Gu Chengyu hurriedly stepped forward to support the emperor's body, and stuffed the pillow behind the emperor.

"Jinyu! Don't you think I'm very ridiculous? An emperor who has only been in office for three or four months will be recorded in the annals of history as a joke in the future!" The emperor suddenly chuckled, his tone full of self-deprecation.

"It's not the emperor's fault!" Gu Chengyu comforted softly, but he also felt that the emperor was miserable.

Originally sitting on the throne, I thought that good days were coming.Unexpectedly, before he started to enjoy the imperial power and wealth, wars started at the border, and his own brothers were eyeing the throne covetously.

It seems that since the emperor ascended the throne, there has never been an easy day.He is always in fear, worried that his own brother will pull him down from this position.

Therefore, being born in the royal family may not be a good thing.

"Jinyu! It's my honor to have your support, thank you!" The emperor looked at Gu Chengyu and suddenly smiled brightly. In fact, he didn't understand why Gu Jinyu was willing to submit to others despite his talent for managing the world.

In fact, he has many opportunities to replace him. With Gu Chengyu's ability, there is no doubt about it.

Sometimes he feels that Gu Jinyu is very contradictory. He seems to be very concerned about power and eager to climb up.But he is very principled in doing things, if he really has the intention of treason, how can he and the boss resist it?Yet he did not.

So he said that this person is very contradictory. He is obviously a person who is unwilling to be inferior to others, but he can bear to bow and kneel to him every day.It seemed that even though he knelt down, his arrogance was still unyielding, and no one would despise him.

Gu Jinyu was a person he couldn't see through, an elusive person.

"The emperor is serious, this is what a humble minister should do." Gu Chengyu was a little uncomfortable, he was really not used to being so sensational all of a sudden.

"I thank you because you chose me at the beginning. In fact, I don't understand one thing. Prince Gong and Prince Jing are wooing you so much. Why are you indifferent and still choose me? This is what I have always wanted to ask."

The emperor closed his eyes slightly, he was a little tired.

"Because of the emperor's pure kindness, no matter how much the emperor finds excuses to excuse your own kindness and soft-heartedness, you are such a person. Take the matter of Master Wu Wu as an example. At the beginning, you really wanted to gain a good reputation. Did you just let him become a monk? When you were the prince, they all plotted against you. Why did you show mercy many times? Whether you admit it or not, you are always a kind person, but you just don’t want to face your heart. !"

Gu Chengyu smiled slightly, that's why he chose Zhao Dun.Even though Zhao Dun's performance made him a little disappointed when the emperor passed away, he still persevered in the end.

It's not that he never thought of replacing him, but he is actually a very lazy person, and the life of an emperor is not easy.He became an official through the imperial examination, firstly because of his mother, and secondly because of protecting the family, that's all.

"Chun Shan?" The emperor opened his eyes and looked at Gu Chengyu in a daze. After a while, he sighed.

"Father really knows how to choose a name, Zhao Dun, Dun is so generous! Maybe since I was born, Father has no intention of letting me succeed?"

Born in the middle palace, named Dun!However, the eldest son of the concubine was named Xian!It can be seen how much hope is placed on the eldest son of the concubine.

"No matter what the late emperor thinks, you are the one who sits on the throne now!" It seems that the emperor has always been bitter about the fact that the late emperor did not pass on the throne to him, and yes, after all, it was from the middle palace, which is really hard to understand.

"I've been unwell for the past two days, so you can spend more time with brother Ye for me! I heard from Pang Chu that he likes you very much, and I have to rely on you to take care of him in the future."

The emperor's voice became weaker, showing that he was already very tired.

"The minister will." Gu Chengyu responded, he knew that Zhao Guangye was the one the emperor was most worried about.

"I'm tired, you step back first!" The emperor said weakly, and Gu Chengyu quickly knelt down.There is still a pair of messes waiting for him in Dali Temple!The poisoning of the emperor must be investigated as soon as possible.
