Chapter 292: Wei Guogong returns to Beijing
By the time Wei Guogong returned to the capital with a team of elite soldiers, General Zhong had already left. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The northern border pass was in an emergency, and General Zhong's face was so dark that he suddenly felt that he was a little worse than Wei Guogong. Wei Guogong is powerful, not only himself, but his generals can command him alone. But his soldiers are accustomed to obeying him in everything, and in the past, he still felt that he was prestigious, but now, the disadvantages are showing.
The matter in Beijing has not yet been settled, but he has to go back to the border pass, and the damned Northern Qi people dare to take advantage of the situation to see that he does not kill him and leave no piece of armor.
It's a pity that it won't be his turn to share the cake in Kyori. Fortunately, the biggest piece has arrived.
The ascension to the throne of the Nine Emperors did not go very well.
What about the jade seal? It's just that there is no holy decree to pass on the throne, you are the only seedling in the horizontal and vertical, who will do it if you don't become the emperor? But the jade seal has to be found. Is it that any orders issued in the future are empty? Who admits it?
But I can't find it.
Let's make another one.
Carving a jade seal is not a carved radish chapter, you can get it in a while, and you can't be perfunctory. I found a few jade carving masters to carry it out, and it would take a few months to get it. Before this, the Nine Emperors could not worship the heavens, and there was no form of "heavenly grant of monarchy", and he was also the acting emperor when he put on a dragon robe.
Wait. While looking for the old, make the new at the same time. I can just do something else.
Busy with what? Clean up the mess!
This one is a bit difficult. It's not that you can't find out who is who's henchman, after all, when there is no chaos, it is already very clear to stand in line, but the officials are all in line and killed? Unrealistic, although there is a group of jinshi waiting to fill the vacancies in each subject, but people with no experience and no qualifications dare to put them in important positions?
The Nine Emperors didn't have any henchmen who stood in line, and a few loyal to the old emperor, as well as adults who didn't participate in the palace change, naturally became his think tank. Everyone sits down, one official after another, kills those who should be killed, and exiles those who should be exiled, and then give another chance to reform themselves, and demote them to see their performance.
This is not something that can be achieved in a moment.
But there are a lot of people to be killed, from the central to the local, there are orders to send them out every day, and every day there are people who kill heads at the entrance of the vegetable market. The Kyosato house was empty. The court hall was also a little empty, but it was more lively than before. The happy ones are the concubine's mother's family, the Lin family.
The Lin family has also been beautiful, before. Now the old man and eldest son of the Lin family are in the Hanlin Courtyard and have not mixed up anything. Fortunately, he sent the girl into the palace and gave birth to the prince, before the Nine Emperors cut the meat, the concubine was only ordinary in the harem. If the Nine Emperors have no chance, the Lin family will be completely lonely, and no one will look down on the unambitious princes, let alone them.
When the old emperor used the matter of filial piety to cut the flesh to pressure the princes, the old man Lin passed a message to his daughter, whether our family is good or bad, it depends on you. As soon as the concubine gritted her teeth, the Nine Emperor Princes had a scar on her chest, but fortunately, the ending was good, and it also bred the ambition of the concubine.
General Zhong was the one the Lin family went to hook up with, and the so-called smell was like-minded, and they hit it off.
Seeing that the Nine Emperor Princes ascended the throne, the Lin family was about to soar. The Lin family celebrated with a crown, thinking that it would be okay to be a marquis at the beginning, don't be too high-profile, and take your time in the future. Old Man Lin also wants to get a Taifu Emperor Pavilion or something.
Butβit's hard to dream.
If the Lin family wants to fly, they have to let the concubine be the queen mother first. The concubine is here, but it is difficult to do.
The sons are all emperors, and the mother is naturally the queen mother.
Hehe, the ministers said, you go out to inquire by yourself, your reputation...
Then, regarding the way the concubine was handled, the civil officials quarreled again.
To accompany the first emperor to the funeral is not done, and the imperial tomb cannot be defiled. When the Queen Mother lowered the curtain and listened to the government, she didn't even think about it, if she was taken turns by others, Ruo Zhenlie should have bitten her tongue and hung the beam and the crane was red. Since he survived, he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and he was still delusional about the government? didn't give three feet of white silk, it was all to see the emperor's face.
As virtuous civil officials, they jointly wrote a letter asking the concubine to leave home to pray for the blessing of the first emperor.
Of course the concubine refused, and the Lin family also jumped out in a panic to refute, the concubine endured the humiliation and secretly lived, isn't it that she can't let go of the new emperor, is she afraid that the young new emperor will be deceived by traitors.
Everyone, you really have a face, who doesn't know that your Lin family is the first traitor.
Lin family: In history, Empress Zhao married several times, and finally became the queen mother, and also instructed the government.
Ministers: It was an unstable situation, and Empress Zhao sacrificed herself to maintain the orthodoxy of her own son, which was to contribute to the royal family. Your concubine lost her innocence because she didn't know how many men had gained, except for discrediting the new emperor and the royal family. Even if you don't do it voluntarily, the royal face is trampled under your feet.
Lin Jia: And Empress Chongzhen, haven't you been given that by the rebels?
Ministers: Say with a face. The rebels also invaded Beijing, and Empress Chongzhen was defiled in order to protect the little prince. How can we listen, when the concubine was there, the Nine Emperor Princes had already been arrested, not Han Shizi, and the Nine Emperor Princes' lives were gone. How do you compare with others? Moreover, Empress Chongzhen took the prince to escape from Beijing, united vertically and horizontally, and personally led the troops back to Beijing to regain power, and moreover, after the prince ascended the throne, Queen Chongzhen refused the position of the queen mother and followed the first emperor, which was unanimously appreciated by everyone, and the word "Chongzhen" was borne. What, shouldn't the concubine wash and go on the road?
The Lin family is short of words, knowing that their concubines really have nothing to compare with those queen mothers who have left their names in history. But--I still have to fight for it, if I am not the queen mother, how can I benefit the Lin family?
This was enough for them to quarrel for a while.
Oh, and the old emperor was buried, how the three rebellious princes were buried, how their families were handled, and several princes who died unjustly, and the harem concubines... Inside and out, there's a lot to do.
Wei Guogong arrived in the capital in October, and the new emperor's enthronement ceremony was set in January of the new year.
Mrs. Wei said: "It's rare to come back, I can stay a few more days this time." Then he asked his grandchildren and daughters-in-law.
invited the old lady into the study to talk secretly, and Wei Guogong reported the recent situation of the two of them, mainly Jing Jingtian.
Mrs. Wei was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "The pool can't hold her." β
Wei Guogong nodded, he had a feeling in his heart that after this difficulty, Wei Jingtian was definitely not the Jin Xi'er of the past, he was reborn.
"Alas, the stall is getting bigger and bigger, but this silver can't keep up." The old lady felt that Wei Jingtian was bound to occupy the island as the king, but the expenses here could not be settled by millions.
"No, I have to check the accounts to see how much money I can move from the family."
Wei Guogong shook his head: "A drop in the bucket." β
The old lady came up in one breath: "You moved?" β
Wei Guogong couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Isn't the family in your hands?" I don't need it. I mean, to take that island, you have to build a city, and I don't know what will happen there. But bricks, wood, stone tiles, grain, cloth, salt, these most basic necessities of life, although cheap, but a large amount of money to buy - our family is really a drop in the bucket. You know, your grandson asked me for 10,000 as soon as he opened his mouth, or 10,000 first. I think it's not a small island. β
The old lady made a difficulty: "You can't watch the children do it in a hurry." β
"So, I discussed with my daughter-in-law, in order not to attract the attention of the imperial court, I found someone to buy these things in the Three Kingdoms, and shipped them to her by sea."
"Then we don't have enough money."
That's a city.
"The daughter-in-law said, money, she will find a way."
The old lady understood: "You give the money in front, and she snatches it back later?" β
Wei Guogong couldn't help but be embarrassed, but thinking about it, he was not a businessman who robbed his country, so it was better not to hear it.
"Hehe, this kid, what kind of personality he has now... Do you know that on the day of the palace change, her one-knife hall ransacked dozens of households. It's crooked, and it can be used for a while. β
Wei Guogong was silent.
