Chapter 62 Chen He stood in the courtyard of the East Factory with one hand behind his back, leading the people from the West Factory.
The East Factory and West Factory have been at odds for many years, and this is not the first time that the two parties have faced off like this.
In order to prevent one side from becoming too powerful and causing eunuchs to take power, the two sides continued to fight, just as the emperor wished.
Dou Hongyan said in a gloomy voice: "Chen He, why did you bring the people from the West Factory to our East Factory with such force?"
"Why do you, Governor Dou, ask questions knowingly?"
Chen He smiled elegantly and said slowly: "Your Dongchang people hurt my men.
Although I don't want to start a dispute, as their governor, I naturally have to do it for my subordinates."
Only by asking for justice can you live up to your position as governor."
Chen He delayed doing Tai Chi until someone came to report the fire in Yongli Palace.
Dou Hongyan was shocked.
Although both Dongchang and Xichang had the responsibility of guarding the palace, Dongchang was mainly responsible for the safety of the palace.
The two secret guards around Emperor Chang were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat.
Regardless of whether Chen He and the people from the West Factory were still here, Dou Hongyan and the people from the East Factory hurried to Yongli Palace.
Chen He also looked surprised, lagging a little behind the people in Dongchang, and rushed to Yongli Palace.
On the way, a little eunuch ran out from the corner and approached Chen He.
Chen He looked ahead without looking at him, and asked: "Here's the news?"
"My subordinates are incompetent.
They failed to see the master of Xuanjing Sect return and was injured."
Chen He looked at him in surprise.
He immediately lowered his voice and explained: "The guard of Master Ji is very powerful.
He guards the courtyard gate and does not let his subordinates in.
When his subordinates said that they had something urgent to report, he was not accommodating.
He kept saying that his wife had told the Fifth Master No one is allowed to enter the hospital until he wakes up.
It doesn’t make sense, so my subordinates have no choice but to force their way in.
Unfortunately, they don’t have the ability to defeat him.
How come Xuanjingmen is so skilled as a gatekeeper?”
Chen He remembered Gu Jianli's indifferent look when he said, "I have killed someone before."
He raised his head slightly and narrowed his eyes to look in the direction of Yongli Palace.
Before she even entered the palace, she had already arranged so many things He suddenly felt that maybe this little girl could really succeed.
That would be interesting.
Chen He rushed to Yongli Palace and saw Gu Jianli at a glance.
She was supported by someone and stood in front of the sea of fire.
Her purple dress was blown up by the night wind, and her black hair fell softly on her shoulders, making her palm-sized face even more fair and attractive.
Her bright eyes looked at the fire in front of her with fear.
She kept trembling and said: "Quick, put out the fire and save your majesty."
No one could doubt her concern.
Even looking at her like this, I started to feel distressed.
The attic is entirely made of wood, and the flames are fierce and powerful.
When Dou Hongyan saw the intensity of the fire, his heart immediately dropped.
He rushed to Gu Jianli and asked: "What happened, how is your majesty?"
Gu Jianli trembled his eyelashes as if in shock, and took a step back with fear.
Chen He walked over and said slowly: "Director Dou, you scared her.
Tell me slowly why the fire broke out and how is your majesty?"
"I, I didn't know that a fire suddenly started while I was sleeping soundly.
I ran to my mother-in-law and yelled for help with my mother-in-law, but there was no one and the fire was getting bigger and bigger.

We were so scared.
There were people at the door.
There was a fire and we couldn't get out.
We decided to jump out of the window.
Your Majesty is so powerful that you couldn't jump out of danger, so only my wife and I jumped down to find someone to put out the fire."
Dou Hongyan asked anxiously: "How is your majesty?"
"Your Majesty was fine when my wife and I jumped down.
We just need to put out the fire quickly."
Dou Hongyan said in a bad tone: "How could you leave His Majesty alone in the attic?"
Gu Jianli whispered aggrievedly: "Your Majesty is unable and unwilling to jump down with us, and ordered us to jump down to find someone."
Chen He said slowly from the side: "Yes, I don't know how the secret guards around His Majesty can leave Your Majesty alone."
Concubine Li, who was supporting Gu Jianli, showed off her concubine's momentum and said angrily: "It's important to put out the fire right now.
If your Majesty really has a problem, no one can afford it."
Dou Hongyan hurriedly responded to Concubine Li's words, and without further words, he led his people to put out the fire.
Not long after Dou Hongyan and Chen He arrived, the matter reached the ears of the third and fourth princes.
As the only two princes left in the palace, how dare they delay such a critical moment.
Distraught, he put out the fire himself to show his filial piety.
The fire was not extinguished until dawn, and civil and military officials from both the DPRK and China were alerted and rushed to the palace.
The situation was urgent, and the palace guards guarded the palace gate.
Most of the courtiers could only kneel and wait outside the palace gate, wailing and planning secretly in their hearts.
Emperor Chang's unrecognizable body was brought out, and the two princes performed the heartbreaking grief in a touching way.
The play was almost done, and they hurried to Emperor Chang's palace.
For the edict in the treasure box.
It’s a race against time, and every moment counts.
Dou Hongyan personally removed the sandalwood treasure box above the dragon bed and took out the edict inside.
Ji Lan and Ji Song became nervous.
Dou Hongyan slowly unfolded the edict and stared at it with several pairs of eyes.
When the name of the second prince Ji Yan was revealed, Ji Lan's eyes tightened, but Ji Song's eyes relaxed.
Ji Song and Ji Yan were born from the same mother.
Ji Song is not very old, he is only thirteen now.
"My father passed away suddenly, and the country cannot be left without a king for a day.
I will send people to bring the second brother back.
Will the third brother have any objections?"
"Of course."
Ji Lan smiled elegantly.
Ji Song was so happy that he grabbed the edict in Dou Hongyan's hand, turned around and ran out, happily chasing his second brother back to the capital.
However, before he could run far, a sharp arrow shot from the back of his heart and burst out of his body. .
The edict in his hand fell to the ground.
He used his last strength to turn around and looked at the third brother holding a bow and arrow in disbelief.
Ji Lan's face was expressionless.
Being born into an emperor's family, there is no sense of brotherhood.
There was chaos in the palace and everyone was in danger.
Concubine Li choked with sobs and helped Gu Jianli to rest temporarily in the most remote side hall of Yongli Palace that was not affected by the fire.
The sun gradually sets in the west, and the soft sunset light fills the courtyard.
The door was open, and Gu Jianli kept looking through the door to the courtyard gate in the distance.

Concubine Li held Gu Jianli's hand tremblingly.
She was in shock and said worriedly: "No conspiracy in this world is foolproof.
What should I do?
Will it be found out?
Even if it is not found out, it is still guilty of failing to protect him."
Gu Jianli turned his head with a slight smile on his face.
There was no panic in her gentle eyebrows, which made Concubine Li's heart calm down quietly.
"Don't worry, aunt, if Emperor Chang is still alive, our chances of survival are slim.
Now that he is dead, the door to life is wide open.
As an emperor and a courtier, the most important thing now is how the new emperor can sit firmly on the throne, and It’s not the death of the old emperor.”
"You mean we can all survive?"
Concubine Li still didn't believe it.
"It depends on whether the new emperor is the one I wish for."
She turned to look in the direction of the door, her tone slowed down, and she said with a bit of expectation, "If it is him, not only can we leave alive, but our father can be reborn.
Power.
My aunt can also leave the palace incognito."
"What?"
Concubine Li was shocked.
Before she could ask, the courtyard door was pushed open.
Gu Jianli tightened his cuffs, feeling suddenly nervous.
The eunuchs filed in one after another until Ji Lan's figure finally came into view, and Gu Jianli smiled.
She struggled to support Concubine Li's hand and stood up when Ji Lan crossed the threshold.
She knelt down on the ground and congratulated respectfully: "On behalf of my father, the daughter of the Gu family congratulates your majesty, long live your majesty."
Ji Lan stood at the door, looking deeply at Gu Jianli who was lying on the ground.
After a long time, he waved his hand for everyone to leave.
The door slowly closed, and the light in the room dimmed.
He walked in slowly and sat down on the chair above.
He didn't let Gu Jianli get up and asked, "How did Gu Er know?"
Gu Jianli raised his head and said: "Your Majesty's civil and military strategies are outstanding among the princes, and he has won the support of all the powerful officials in the court, so his succession to the throne is a matter of course."
Gain the support of all the powerful officials in the DPRK Ji Lan chuckled lightly.
Unlike the other princes whose mothers had powerful families, Ji Lan's mother-in-law was just a palace maid.
So even if he is outstanding, he is still the one with the least power.
He was unwilling to miss any opportunity to win over the courtiers, even Gu Jingyuan, who had lost power, and paid secret visits several times.
The support he needs needs to be solicited by himself.
It doesn't matter what crime Gu Jingyuan committed, as long as Gu Jingyuan has the ability to help him.
"Get back on your feet."
Ji Lan raised her hand, "Gu Er seems to be injured.
Let the doctor take a look later."
Concubine Li immediately helped Gu Jianli up distressedly.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
Gu Jianli lowered his eyebrows.
Ji Lan came here with the intention of using Gu Jianli to make Gu Jingyuan surrender.
Now that Gu Jianli had such an attitude, he felt a little relieved.
His name was not on the edict, and Ji Yan was still a threat while alive.
There were too many things for him to deal with right now.

As soon as Ji Lan stood up, the eunuch anxiously reported outside the door: "Your Majesty, General Liu entered the palace through the west gate."
Ji Lan frowned.
General Liu is a member of Ji Yan's party and is the person who needs to be solved most when he succeeds to the throne.
Gu Jianli suddenly spoke: "General Liu was at odds with King Wuxian and bribed Concubine Li to frame King Wuxian for adultery.
When the late emperor passed away, Concubine Li was distraught and told the truth before she was buried.
General Liu should be killed for his evil deeds."
Ji Lan suddenly turned back to look at Gu Jianli.
Gu Jianli still looked so calm and docile, and spoke in a gentle voice.
She was just a harmless little girl.
Concubine Li was also shocked and looked at Gu Jianli in disbelief.
Ji Lan stared at Gu Jianli for a long time, the light in her eyes darkened and darkened, and the coldness in her eyes gradually melted like ice in early spring.
He strode away and ordered General Liu to be shot with random arrows.
After Ji Lan left, Gu Jianli's body suddenly softened, and the excruciating pain in her leg made the corners of her eyes turn red.
"Jian Li" Concubine Li burst into tears and supported her, but found that her face was pale, the clothes on her back were soaked with cold sweat, and her whole body was trembling.
There was chaos in the palace, and a red shadow flew past.
"Who is it?"
the guard stopped him.
"Get lost."
Ji Wujing's voice was hoarse, and his eyes were getting scarier.
The blood wings flew by, regarding the guards as nothing.
When Ji Wujing appeared in front of Gu Jianli, Gu Jianli was stunned.
She endured the pain, tried to raise the corners of her mouth, and said weakly: "You're awake."
Ji Wujing stared at Gu Jianli's face.
The scarlet red in his eyes faded, but the shadow did not disappear, making it eerie and terrifying.
He pinched Gu Jianli's wrist and turned around angrily.
Gu Jianli hurriedly grabbed him.
Ji Wujing turned back.
She put her other hand on the lapel of Ji Wujing's clothes, and her hand and body slid down softly, saying with a trembling voice: "It hurts" gd1806102:
