Chapter 3: The Old Man (1)

The capital of the Dawu Dynasty, inside the palace city, in the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the Han family has been acting more and more recklessly over the years, and now they are openly committing murder, lawlessness, if they are not severely punished this time, I am afraid that other families in the capital will also ......"

"That's enough." Sitting on the dragon chair was Zhao Tiannan, the son of the Dawu Dynasty wearing a dragon robe, and when he heard Chen Yushi's impassioned admonition from Chen Yushi, who was kneeling on the ground, he said lightly.

Chen Yushi was stunned for a moment, he had long known that His Majesty was particularly indulgent to the Han family, but now that a young master of a side branch of the Han family had committed a murder in broad daylight and injured the young master of the Su family, the queen's mother, and the nephew of the queen's mother's family. Although the injured person was only a concubine of the queen's brother, after all, it also represented the face of the Su family. Could it be that the Han family's position in His Majesty's heart is so important that even the queen's mother family has to make way for it?

The emperor and queen have always been harmonious, how can they ...... now?

Thinking of this, Chen Yushi said again: "Your Majesty, the Han family dares to despise even a side branch disciple, if you don't ...... it."

"I've said enough!" Zhao Tiannan was originally a little careless, but he turned his head suddenly, and two sharp eyes fell on Chen Yushi, making him swallow the next words raw.

Zhao Tiannan has long sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome and extraordinary, if he is a literati, he must be a gentle and elegant gentleman. But Zhao Tiannan was born in martial arts, and he killed countless enemies when he fought in the world, and after these twenty years of imperial career, he has long faded away from his original youthfulness and has been replaced by majesty and solemnity. So when he sank his face, the power of the emperor made the imperial history, who had always been proud of the death of the court, dare not say a word more.

Gonggong Lin, who was standing on the side and waiting, shook his eyebrows slightly.

The Dawu Dynasty has only been established for 20 years, and whether it is a courtier, a palace concubine, a palace maid, or a eunuch in the harem, they have all been gradually added in the past 20 years. This huge palace has been serving His Majesty since 20 years ago, and it does not exceed the number of five fingers.

Lin Gonggong is one of them.

Chinese Few people know why His Majesty favored the Han family so much, even if the Han family had contributed to supporting His Majesty in establishing the Great Wu Dynasty, they should not have such honor.

Yes, today's Majesty Xià Zhao Tiannan attaches great importance to the Han family.

The Han family is a prestigious family that has lasted for 400 years, and it has experienced several dynastic changes in the past 400 years, but the Han family has always been standing. Twenty years ago, the reason why Zhao Tiannan was able to stand out and establish the Great Wu Dynasty and firmly grasp the world in his hands is that the Han family can be said to have contributed a lot.

To this day, the Han family has also reaped far more than expected returns because of their original efforts.

Han Zhen, the contemporary head of the Han family, is a scholar of the palace, the first assistant of the cabinet, and the secretary of the ministry, plus the young master and the prince and the prince, just look at this long list of official names, you can know the respect of his status. Han Zhen's eldest son, Han Ling, was in charge of the military department, and the official was the secretary of the military department. The second son, Han Ye, was exiled to Guangdong, and was appointed as the political envoy of Guangdong Chengxuan, and he was also a feudal official.

The honor of the Han family can be seen from this, not to mention that there are many children of the Han family who are officials in the court.

The civil and military officials were envious of the comrades of the Han family, and they couldn't help but wonder about it.

The so-called side of the couch does not allow others to sleep soundly.

When today's son can fight a bloody way out of the troubled times twenty years ago and establish the current Dawu Dynasty, he naturally can't be a faint monarch who doesn't understand anything, so it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a wise and martial artist. That being the case, why can he tolerate that the Han family not only occupies the head of the civilian officials, but also is in charge of the military department, which is the most important of the six ministries.

To put it mildly, the Han family is already quite prestigious in the army, with the current status of the Han family, if they have a heart of disobedience, even if the Dawu Dynasty does not overturn, I am afraid it will hurt the muscles and bones.

Zhao Tiannan is the emperor, but he is not a good man who is willing to make wedding clothes for others, and he naturally has reasons why he cannot be praised by outsiders.

And Gonggong Lin is one of the insiders. After serving by Zhao Tiannan's side for 20 years and winning Zhao Tiannan's trust, Lin Gonggong knows too many unspeakable secrets.

It's just because Zhao Tiannan doesn't want to, but he doesn't dare, he doesn't dare to move the Han family. The Han family can stand for hundreds of years without falling, and it has already grown into a towering tree with intertwined roots, and the heritage of the hundred-year-old wang clan is not the foundation of the Dawu Dynasty, which has not yet had a solid foundation for 20 years.

Not to mention......

Thinking of the woman who could be called peerless, Gonggong Lin's eyes darkened, and he swallowed a sigh in his throat without mentioning it.

"I heard that Huzhou ...... Now all the lotus is blooming, auspicious? During the time when Gonggong Lin recalled the past, Zhao Tiannan had already waved Chen Yushi away, and his eyes touched the folds stacked on the dragon case, and he said suddenly as if he was inadvertent.

Hearing this, Gonggong Lin stood behind Zhao Tiannan with his eyes closed, and looked back respectfully and said: "Back to Your Majesty, there is indeed this matter, the local people all say that this is God's recognition of His Majesty's efforts in the past 20 years, and the auspicious omen is specially sent to announce the sainthood of His Majesty in the world, and Qin Tianjian also said that this matter is conclusive." ”

Although Majesty said it casually, with what Gonggong Lin knew about him over the years, he could know that Majesty was quite concerned about things.

Zhao Tiannan didn't ask any more.

Gonggong Lin lowered his eyes, and from his point of view, he could see that Zhao Tiannan's thick hands were clenched into fists at this time, and he was still trembling faintly, as if he was trying his best to suppress something.

He still remembers that twenty years ago, on the lakeside of Huzhou City, the girl in Tsing Yi cut her eyebrows in his surprise and threw the blood-stained lotus seed into the rippling lake. The lotus seed entered the water with a "ding dong" sound, and then sank away, only a faint touch of crimson on the surface of the lake.

"Someone once told me that this lotus seed can give me a new life, do you believe it?" Here's what she said when asked why.

At that time, it was dusk, she stood in the backlight, the afterglow of the setting sun plated a thin layer of gold on her body, in the rippling blue waves of the lake, her green silk flew with the wind, the blood between her eyebrows poured out a cinnabar, and her clothes revealed a different kind of elegance and charm.

Although 20 years have passed, her appearance seems to be engraved in her heart, and she has never forgotten it no matter what.

After a long time, Zhao Tiannan seemed to be muttering to himself and asking: "You say, at the beginning, did I do something wrong?" ”

Gonggong Lin didn't speak, because he knew that His Majesty didn't need his response at this time, he just bowed his head more respectfully.

Xu is because he thinks of the old people he hasn't thought of for a long time, or because he stands behind His Majesty so that he doesn't have too much scruples about being seen through, Gonggong Lin has always been Gu Jing Bubo's eyes flashed with a sudden cold light, and the corners of his mouth were gently pulled, revealing a faint mockery.

It's been twenty years......
