What he has even more headache is the Nine Masters Party, and this election was originally held by himself in order to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger! It is true that although Emperor Wu is a little ruthless in doing this, it is also a test for him to Yun Zizhong, what is the master? It's about being thorough. If you are happy, you will be virtuous, and if you are angry, you will be powerful. Therefore, the words of the Lord are blocked and incomprehensible, and they are not seen. Therefore, those who get ten with one go down to the road, and those who get one with ten go to the road.

Emperor Wu is the ruler of a feudal dynasty, of course, he can't see the power falling, it is true that Yun Zizhong is quite virtuous in the court, known as the virtuous king, but Emperor Wu knows that this is all supported by officials and officials, just like Yan Song and Hai Rui in the Ming Dynasty, in terms of reputation, Yan Song must be the most popular 'virtuous man' in the Manchu Dynasty, but history tells us that Yan Song is a traitor, although he is 'traitorous for the emperor and ignores his family'

Although his loyalty to Jiajing can be learned, but in the end, it is inevitable that he will be dismissed by Jiajing to calm the anger of the Qingliu people, just like today's imperial study, Emperor Wu knows that it is time for them to know who this country is, and whose world is the world!

Emperor Wu glanced at Du Zhenghao at this time, and said coldly: "Du Zhenghao, what else do you have to say?!" ”

At this time, Du Zhenghao seemed to have aged for decades in an instant, and his previous vitality was not there, but like an octogenarian who was on the verge of dying, it seemed that he had worked hard all his life, and he had survived his political opponents, but now he was defeated in the hands of his son, and he couldn't help but feel a little desolate......

I've worked all my life, what is it all about?!

Twilight Zhenghao had a voice in his heart that kept asking himself, at that moment it seemed that the people who were responsible for him were blaming himself, Twilight, Twilight Linglong, Twilight Rushuang, and his childhood sweetheart, a fisherman's girl......

"Enough!"

As the saying goes, 'Falling red is not a ruthless thing, turning into spring mud is more protective of flowers.' 'Emperor Wu asked himself what he had to say, and of course he had something to say! In any case, you can't let the entire Chang'an Dusk clan bear the disaster!

He made up his mind and glared at Emperor Wu and said: "The minister has nothing to say, everything is just the minister doing things according to His Majesty's will, and now His Majesty says that the minister is wrong, then the minister is wrong!" Twilight Zhenghao turned his heart sideways, and Yan Ran looked like he was begging for death, but Emperor Wu said quietly: "What? It's been a long time, you mean I'm wrong!? ”

"Weichen doesn't dare!"

Twilight Zhenghao turned his head away from looking at him, but Emperor Wu snorted coldly and said: "Instigating hundreds of officials to cause chaos in the dynasty, as a prime minister, but forming a party for personal gain, what else do you dare not dare?!" Emperor Wu said that he listed the crimes of Du Zhenghao, and several other ministers who were good friends with Du Zhenghao did not dare to speak one by one, Guo Shouqian bowed his head all the way, as if there was a spring palace map on the ground, so that he could linger, but at this time, Qu Changning on the side said: "Du Zhenghao! Don't you want to emulate Bigan Wei Zheng and provoke Your Majesty so that Your Majesty will be charged with killing a meritorious hero!? You're so ill-intentioned!! ”

These words seem to be abusing Du Zhenghao, but in fact, Qu Changning wants to save his life, the old ministers of the year are now left with the two of them, although they have fought for a lifetime, but it is inevitable that they will sympathize with each other, here I have to say that although Qu Changning is mercenary, but at the critical moment, he does not forget the love of following the first emperor together, which is also commendable!

But at this time, even stupid people heard the meaning of Emperor Yunwu wanting to take Twilight Zhenghao, and this time Twilight Ke was in a hurry, Emperor Wu didn't say that last night, and immediately knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, my father is also confused for a while, and he shouldn't secretly figure out the Sacred Heart, so he did such a stupid thing that doesn't know the general situation, but my father really doesn't have two hearts for the emperor, and he is also so dedicated to the future of the Great Cloud Empire!" ”

"Thinking of my father's achievements in the Huan District, it can be said that he is a supreme minister, one person is above ten thousand people, but as long as he thinks about everything and greets the emperor in everything, he can guarantee a lifetime of glory and wealth, but if I want to say that my father's only selfishness, it is all for the descendants of my twilight family, if the way of being a minister is to learn from my father, it is 'descendants have their own blessings, don't be a criminal minister for future generations!' ”

After saying this, Du Ke slammed his head on the ground, and Emperor Wu saw that his goal was achieved, so he put away his angry look, and said calmly: "Du Zhenghao, you heard everything, right?" Your son, a little Admiral of the Nine Gates, understands these truths better than you, but you are deeply immersed in it and don't know it, thinking that you have worked hard for the country for half your life, I will not kill you, from now on you will not have to participate in the affairs of the cabinet, you will be demoted three levels in a row, but you will still retain the title of first-class duke, ranking behind Liu Bo'an......"

This Liu Bo'an is the champion of the new department, ranked in the fourth grade, and served in the Qin Tianjian, it can be described as an idle errand, and now putting Du Zhenghao there can be said to be a complete cut off of his political career, thinking that he has been fighting all his life, the power of the world, and the generals are both civil and military, but now it is such an end, I don't know if it is fortunate or unfortunate?

Twilight Zhenghao slowly took out the seal that symbolized authority from his arms, placed it on the wooden plate held by the eunuch on the side, and glanced at Twilight Ke with complicated eyes, and Twilight Ke saw that his father's life was saved at this time, and the tears in his eyes had not dissipated, the two looked at each other for a long time, and Twilight Zhenghao said indifferently: "Your Majesty, forget it, the old minister is tired, and suddenly Gu Lao once said a sentence, he said: 'A generation only does the business of a generation' Maybe I should have resigned and returned to my hometown to retire...... I don't know if the snow in Chang'an is still as varied as I remember......"

The old man had mixed feelings at this time, and he actually stood up and turned around despite the emperor's order, and slowly began to untie his court clothes while walking towards the long corridor outside the imperial study......

At this time, Emperor Yunwu also sighed, looked at Du Ke who was kneeling on the side, and pointed to Du Zhenghao, who was gradually moving away, and said: "Your official position is retained, you are the only one who is the commander of the Nine Gates, get up, go and send your father, he has worked all his life, and he loves face so much, don't let him fall in front of the ministers outside......"

"Wechen...... Command! ”

Twilight Ke bowed solemnly to Emperor Yunwu, then stood up and quickly stepped forward with a flick of his robe, wanting to support Twilight Zhenghao, but Twilight Zhenghao pulled his arms, put his hands behind his back, and died looking up to the sky by himself, and couldn't help but think of a poem, but the author couldn't remember it for a long time, only remembered a few sentences in it

"Last year, the snow was full of Chang'an trees. Look at the starry road. This year, I saw the snow in Luoyang. People in the depths of Penglai, if worried.

Now I don't hate Yi Xiangyi. Self-hatred comes from twilight. Hirayama Hall under the old frolic. There is only dancing spring willows, like a romantic flow. ”

Laughing wildly, sighing, happy, sad, in the end it was just empty, and now Du Zhenghao understands that what election of the prince and what people's righteousness are bullshit, talking about democracy in the feudal dynasty? How naïve are you?

At this time, the ministers and princes who were waiting outside saw the door of the imperial study open, and they all focused their attention, only to see an old man in white walking out of the house, this road is actually not long at all, but for Du Zhenghao and Du Ke, this road is dark and does not see the light......

Twilight Zhenghao sighed at this time: "I really didn't expect that the one who stabbed me in the back turned out to be my own son!" ”

Du Ke: "Famous ministers choose their own vision, and the establishment of the prince is a trap for His Majesty to remove dissidents, even if there is no me Du Ke, there will be Wang Ke and Li Ke...... Father, fight with Your Majesty, you can't fight him! How are you compared to Wei Ran, who was in charge of the Luoyang Army back then? Didn't he also end up in defeat and die? I don't want you to repeat his mistakes......"

"Hahahaha, it's a good fight!"

Twilight Zhenghao clenched his fists and subconsciously touched the talisman on his waist, but found that it was empty, and then said with a smile indifferently: "Success or failure turns empty, but Qingshan is still the same, you are much thicker and darker than me, so ...... The Twilight family is up to you! ”
