Chapter 132: Husband and wife
Emperor Yuanchang has indeed never given up the idea of completely uprooting several major clans, if he changes to the usual, he will definitely take advantage of the Gu Jinchun incident that Zhang Ge Lao bit out to make a big move, to see if it is possible to implicate the Gu family and other major clans.

But this time, in a fit of rage, Emperor Yuanchang didn't take these things into account.
Since he ascended the throne, he has also boasted of being a Ming monarch, and the Great Zhou Dynasty has flourished under his rule, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the court is politically clear.
This is the proudest thing that Emperor Yuanchang has always been most proud of.
But in this proudest thing, he was slapped by Zhang Gelao, who was picked up by himself.
Zhang Ge Lao has been in the cabinet for less than three years, and he has already corrupted hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and such a huge corrupt official, there is only one Chen Yushi who has just entered the officialdom in the Manchu Dynasty who dares to participate, he has always thought that political clarity is not a big joke?
Therefore, those who were bitten out by Zhang Ge Lao, Emperor Yuanchang ordered that they should be severely punished, and all those who paid bribes of more than 1,000 taels were sentenced to be executed.
Among them, there is Gu Jinchun.
Under the thunderous wrath of Emperor Yuanchang, the first huge corruption case after the Great Zhou Dynasty was almost concluded at a speed that no one could react to.
After the people of the Gu family got the news, they rushed to the capital, but before they could enter the capital, Gu Jinchun's blood had already been sprinkled on the land of the West Fourth Archway.
The sixth master of the Gu family was beheaded because of the involvement of a corrupt official, and the Gu family naturally refused to give up.
In addition, in a very short period of time, Shanxi, Shandong, Fujian and other ministers announced that the political envoys had been exposed to major crimes such as accepting bribes, committing murder, and colluding with Japanese bandits.
It took two full years for the turmoil to subside slightly.
Ren knew that this was revenge under the anger of several great clans.
But no matter how much he retaliated, Gu Jinchun couldn't come back.
Since Gu Jinchun was beheaded, the relationship between Ning Zhiyuan and Gu Qingwei has dropped to a freezing point.
Ning Zhiyuan had not explained his previous arrangement to Gu Qingwei, but every time he saw Gu Qingwei's cold eyes, he was discouraged and guilty.
Zhang Ge Lao's case was personally tried by him, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and he saw Zhang Ge Lao's confession even earlier than Emperor Yuan Chang, as early as when he saw Zhang Ge veteran Gu Jinchun bite it out, Ning Zhiyuan had some bad premonitions.
can spend tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy Zhang Ge's good words for Gu Jinchun, looking at the entire capital, there is no one else who can do this except Gu Qingwei.
Ning Zhiyuan admitted that he was selfish, so after seeing this confession, he first delayed the time to send this confession to the palace, and then immediately set someone to wipe out the traces of Gu Qing's non-existence in this matter.
It's just that he didn't expect that Emperor Yuanchang would make such a big move in this matter.
He thought that even if he was afraid that Gu Jinchun was born in the Gu family, Emperor Yuanchang should not make up his mind so quickly, and he would have enough time to think again.
But I didn't expect it......
So in the face of Gu Qingwei's indifference, Ning Zhiyuan was actually a little weak-hearted.
If he hadn't been lucky at that time, but had done more for Gu Jinchun, perhaps, maybe Gu Qingwei's respected sixth uncle would not have had such a tragic ending.
They used to be the closest husband and wife, but after this incident, it was as if there was an insurmountable barrier between them.
From near to far east and west,
To the deep to shallow clear stream,
As high as the sun and the moon,
Closest relatives to distant couples.
When Ning Zhiyuan read this "Eight Solstice Poems" when he was young, he always couldn't understand its meaning, but after that, he suddenly understood.
Husband and wife are strangers who are not related by blood, and when they go to one place because of marriage, they can be as good as a person when they are in love, but when they are in love, they can also be like strangers.
Separated by a Gu Sixth Uncle, how can he and Gu Qingwei go back to the past?
In his previous life, Ning Zhiyuan didn't do it until the day he died.
Thinking back now, after Uncle Gu's incident, he felt more guilty, but he was not angry in his heart.
If Huan Yan can give him more trust, he will not deliberately hide all his arrangements;
If Qin Ming hadn't intervened, there would have been no subsequent changes in this matter......
But there was no if.
So from that day on, he never saw the unreserved smile on Gu Qingwei's face again.
The intimacy between them has only been for a few years, but they have been cold for decades.
But, after this, his joy was actually not without a chance.
After Uncle Gu Liu's incident, although Gu Qingwei never said a word to him again, she never resisted him from entering her yard until she became pregnant.
Hearing the news, Ning Zhiyuan was so happy that he was almost incoherent.
He is naturally looking forward to his and Huan Yan's children, but he is even happier that with a child, even if it is just for the sake of the child's face, will Huan Yan forgive him a little bit or two?
During that time, Gu Qingwei was indeed much softer than before, and even occasionally gave him a shallow smile when he talked about children.
Every time, looking at Gu Qingwei's slightly bulging lower abdomen, Ning Zhiyuan would feel satisfied.
He knew that he owed Gu Qing nothing in the matter of the sixth uncle, but he swore that as long as Gu Qing was unwilling to forgive him, he would spend his life to be good to her and their children.
He was looking forward to the arrival of their child like that, but he didn't expect that what happened that day would make it impossible for the relationship between him and Gu Qingwei to ease.
Thinking of these past events, Ning Zhiyuan's expression became cold.
For Qin Ming, Ning Zhiyuan has always only had resentment but no hatred, although he did have good intentions, but his good intentions could be used as a guide, but he led to such a disaster.
If you want to say hate......
Another figure appeared in front of Ning Zhiyuan's eyes.
Fortunately, that person has not appeared by Gu Qingwei's side now, and he will never let such a person with evil intentions appear next to her again.
The rebirth of him and Huan Yan was what he had paid for, and from the day he opened his eyes, he had made up his mind that he would marry her again in this life, and he wanted them to have no misunderstandings, no resentment, and no one else, so hand in hand for a lifetime.
He also knew that Huan Yan and he also had the memories of his previous life, and it must be extremely difficult for him to embrace her again.
But even the rebirth of the human being has done something that anyone who hears it and thinks is ridiculous, what else can't be done? )
