Chapter 231: He Yong's uprising

Gu Tianlan still stayed quietly in the Ganquan Palace, accepting Li Yejin's threats.

Li Yejin came to Ganquan Palace less and less, and when he came, he sat down and left, and never made any excessive moves towards her. Every time she came, Li Yejin's mood became more and more anxious, her brows furrowed more and more tightly, and when she got to the back, she couldn't even maintain her complexion, with a black face, looking at her uncertainly.

Gu Tianlan seemed to be unaware of it, and still lived a leisurely life.

The mouth of the people is more important than the Sichuan. In the month since the stone man appeared, the entire Mochizuki has spread the news of this matter. When autumn came, someone finally took advantage of this incident to make a big article - He Yong of Jingyang launched an uprising on the grounds of 'obeying the heavens', and gathered 5,000 rebel troops in just a few days.

A few years ago, the Gu family fell, and the emperor killed many people who spoke for the Gu family in order to completely eliminate the Gu family's 'residual poison'. Many of them are loyal, proud and good ministers.

When a good minister dies, it is naturally a traitor who is in charge. For the sake of their own selfish interests, the traitors looted the people's fat and ointment, and the people's lives became more and more difficult.

The more the emperor suppressed, the more the people rebelled. The emperor was not allowed to mention the Gu family, and the people thought of how He Qinghai Yan was when General Gu was there.

These people have all experienced the prosperity of the times, and they have long been dissatisfied in their hearts. This dissatisfaction gradually accumulated.

The stone statue was just an opportunity, and what really caused the rebellion was the bursting of the Jing River, flooding most of Jingyang. The victims are all over the wilderness, and the people are struggling to make a living. Li Yejin sent people to deal with the flood, and allocated 200,000 taels of silver, but when it came to the people, there was not even any chaff left. The people he sent forcibly recruited the people to build the river embankment, and the people finally couldn't bear it anymore. He Yong took this opportunity to kill the people sent by the emperor, and the people rushed to echo, and there was this rebel army.

This rebel army began with only 5,000 men, and the emperor did not take it to heart.

However, Li Yejin underestimated the anger and dissatisfaction of the people against him.

In just a few days, this rebel army grew to 20,000 people, rushed into the state capital of Jingyang, killed the assassin of Jingyang, and occupied Jingyang!

The emperor finally had a sense of crisis.

This rebel army could threaten his country.

The emperor immediately sent Wu Liang, the secretary of the military department, to lead an army of 20,000 to suppress the rebels.

When Wu Liang went, the emperor sent him to the gate of Yecheng City, and shouted: "Those who rebel against the sky will die!"

He did this to establish authority before the people and let them know that he was a man of destiny.

In the past, when the army went out to fight, the people cheered and cheered, but now they are blank. The common people are not puppets, and the suppression of the rebel army is not a glorious thing, but it means that the country is crumbling. The people of troubled times are not as good as dogs. There was already a sense of sadness in their hearts.

The emperor only said the words 'Those who rebel against the heavens will perish' on the front foot, and the heavens slapped him the back foot.

Wu Liang is a secretary of the military department, has experience in marching and fighting, and has won battles, but that is because he has a deputy general by his side. Wu Liang was narrow-minded and could not tolerate people, and the reputation of the deputy general gradually overshadowed him, and the soldiers also looked forward to the deputy general, Wu Liang was jealous, so he found an excuse to send him. In this battle, Wu Liang wanted to take the opportunity to establish himself in the war, because he was dealing with a group of rabble, and Wu Liang never thought that he would lose.

However, the leader of the rebel army was a capable man, and in the first battle, He Yong rushed into the army with a double axe and cut off Wu Liang's head.

Wu Liang died, and the 20,000-strong army was leaderless, and it was lost in the hands of He Yong. Only half of the 20,000 soldiers remained, and they returned defeated.

There are even rumors that some of the 10,000 soldiers who were missing did not die, but defected to the rebels.

This was a bolt from the blue for the emperor.

The emperor was furious, and on the one hand, he wanted to block the mouths of the people, and on the other hand, he wanted to send people to suppress it again.

It was only then that the Emperor realized that he was unavailable.

The ancestors of the Gu family followed Emperor Taizu to conquer the world, and they were the founding heroes of the country, and after hundreds of years of development, this family was deeply rooted. The Gu family has been in the military for generations, and the people who can lead the troops in this court are either the Gu family's sons or the Gu family's protΓ©gΓ©s. These people were all slaughtered by the emperor and almost cleaned.

Many of the generals promoted by the emperor later died in the battle between him and Gongsun Yi.

With Wu Liang's defeat, this time he must not be defeated again, otherwise, Mochizuki is in danger.

If he wasn't afraid that he was not in Kyoto, Yecheng would be in chaos, and the emperor would choose to drive in person. It's just that now, he doesn't have the confidence he used to have, and he can't afford to gamble. He didn't want to suppress the rebels, and when he returned, he found that Mochizuki had changed hands.

In the early dynasty, the king had a cold face, and the wind and rain were coming. The ministers of the palace stood tremblingly, and no one dared to speak.

"Isn't it possible that the entire Mochizuki can't find a person who can lead troops to fight?"

After a while, someone stood up: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks of someone." ”

Li Yejin looked at him: "Who?"

"Di Xingyuan. The man said a name.

The emperor's face was even more ugly.

This Di Xingyuan is the person of Gu Xiong's father and daughter. When Gu Tianlan was trapped in Tianqing Town, Di Xingyuan wrote many times to go to the rescue, but the emperor stopped him. Di Xingyuan quietly rushed to Tianqing Town with 20,000 people, but was discovered and intercepted by Li Yejin halfway. The emperor didn't expect someone to be so bold and dare to disobey the emperor's orders. This was originally a capital crime, but because of his rescue work, the emperor did not kill him, but demoted him to a concubine.

Di Xingyuan is the only one who survives in the Gu family.

People who take care of the family, people who care about the family......

If he could, he would never use someone from his family. Back then, he scraped his bones and healed his wounds, completely uprooting the power of the Gu family, and if he used the Gu family's people at this time, he would slap himself hard and admit that he was wrong.

He is an emperor, how can he be wrong?

He is not wrong, if he doesn't get rid of the Gu family, then his Li family's country will fall into the hands of the Gu family.

"This matter will be discussed again. The emperor ended the early dynasty with a word.

After the end of the early dynasty, the emperor went to Ganquan Palace.

Gu Tianlan wore a cyan curved dress today, with wide sleeves and a narrow waist, a green belt tied around the waist, and her hair was coiled up casually, still looking lazy. Her face was unpowdered, her lips were red and her teeth were white, her skin was delicate, her cheeks were crimson, and time seemed to have stopped in her body, like a little girl of fifteen or sixteen.

Li Yejin looked at her infatuatedly, as if he had gone back in time, back to many years ago, when they first met.

He fell in love with her at first sight, but later after knowing her identity, he mixed up many things, and his feelings became no longer pure, and later, he didn't even know what he wanted.

Sooner or later, they will fall into the point of drawing knives against each other, so Li Yejin plucked himself out of this relationship and became a bystander, watching her sink and enjoying her love.

Now, she has been reborn and has come out, and he has become the one caught in it, constantly reminiscing about the past.

Li Yejin's expression froze, put away his nostalgic expression, and sat down beside her with a cold face.

"Jingyang He Yong is the opposite, are you very happy?" Li Yejin asked coldly.

Gu Tianlan sneered, feeling inexplicable: "It's the people who suffer, what do I have to be happy about?"

Li Yejin stared at her face, trying to see through her heart: "My country will be safe and stable, and those who try to move my country in vain, I will make his life worse than death." ”

Gu Tianlan leaned there, a hint of mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he didn't speak again.

After leaving Ganquan Palace, the emperor went to find Di Xingyuan in person.

After Di Xingyuan was demoted to a concubine, he lived in seclusion at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain and became a hunter, he was originally a marching war, archery skills are very good, and hunting is also a strength. He was tall, full of tendons and flesh, and he could hunt, and many girls in the village took a fancy to him. He married one of them and lived an extremely ordinary life, as if he had completely broken with the past.

There is one less general in this world, and one more Orion.

So when Li Yejin suddenly appeared at the door of his cottage, Di Xingyuan didn't react for a while.

"Your Majesty. Di Xingyuan returned to his senses and saluted, "The grass people greet Your Majesty." ”

The emperor condescended to dignity, but he wanted to invite Di Xingyuan out of the mountain.

He mentioned He Yong's rebellion and intended to let him go on the expedition.

"Your Majesty, the grass people are just hunters, and they won't lead troops to war. Di Xing walked afar.

Li Yejin's face changed on the spot, and he said sharply: "Di Xingyuan, aren't you the people of Mochizuki? Under the nest, An has finished having eggs? Can you be a turtle with a shrunken head and watch the people of Mochizuki die in the war?"

Di Xingyuan's expression was faint: "If the general is here, she will definitely not bear it." It's just that she's gone, and the geist doesn't know where to wander. ”

Li Ye knew that Di Xingyuan was still Gu Jiajun in his bones. He had a grudge against him and hated him for killing Gu Tianlan.

O people of the Gu family!

If it weren't for the fact that he had no way out, how could he come to ask the people of the Gu family!

Li Ye held back his mania: "I believe that you are not such a ruthless and unrighteous person, Di Xingyuan, how can you be willing to go out of the mountain?"

Di Xingyuan said: "The grass people heard that His Majesty wanted to burn the Gu family ancestral hall. ”

Guarding Mochizuki so wholeheartedly, he ended up dying and the tablet might have been burned by someone who swore allegiance.

Di Xingyuan was very angry and sad when he heard the news.

This anger finally has time to vent at this time.

After a while, Li Ye promised: "I will not touch the ancestral hall of the Gu family." ”

"Your Majesty, General Gu and the old general are loyal to you, and they will never rebel, they are not thieves. Di Xing walked afar.

"What do you want?" the Emperor was impatient.

Di Xingyuan said: "Your Majesty asks Your Majesty to return the innocence of the general and the old general and restore the reputation of the Gu family." ”

Li Yejin's eyes suddenly turned red, like an angry beast.

Do you want him to restore the reputation of the Gu family?

That's to slap yourself in the face!

It took him a lot of effort to get rid of the Gu family and pull out the Gu family's wings. Kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 yourself. Now, Di Xingyuan actually wants him to say that everything he did is wrong!

He's not wrong! The Gu family should be damned!

"I'm not wrong, the evidence of the Gu family's rebellion is conclusive!Di Xingyuan, do you really think I'm helpless?!"

As soon as Li Yejin's words fell, a guard came in with Di Xingyuan's wife and children.

His son, who was no more than a two-year-old child, stood firmly, cowered in his wife's arms, his young face full of horror.
