Chapter 123: The Violent Martial Emperor

The army of Huiji County pressed the border, although the Minyue royal family had already known about it, but unfortunately there was no strong man in charge, so he could not lead the team to the border to stop it.

So the Minyue royal family had no choice but to send people to Chang'an, ready to ask Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for help.

The envoy was a guest of the Minyue royal family.

He is a master of physical skills, so he is very fast, running all the way, and rarely resting during the period.

On the other side, Chang'an, at this time it has entered November.

Chang'an is located in the north, so it gets cold relatively quickly.

In Tingwei's prison, Zhang Tang has had a bad premonition in his heart recently, and it is getting stronger and stronger. It has been nearly ten months since he entered Tingwei Prison, but the Qin Jin Legalists have not made any moves, as if they want to abandon him.

Zhang Tang's heart became more and more nervous.

In mid-November, Zhao Yu came to prison, the first time Zhao Yu came to Zhang Tang since his arrest.

Seeing Zhao Yu, Zhang Tang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"It's finally here, and I didn't have to wait in vain!" Thinking of this, Zhang Tang looked calm, and he did not embezzle any money. Although Zhang Tang is obsessed with power, he looks at money very lightly.

Zhao Yu looked at Zhang Tang through the fence of the prison door, then sighed and said:

"My lord, the change of events is irreversible, there is news from Gui Mingjian, and you need to make a choice!"

Hearing this, Zhang Tang was stunned, he couldn't believe that what Zhao Yu said was true.

"Why? Over the years, haven't I seen the chief's dedication to Gui Mingjian? Zhang Tang asked.

Zhao Yu shook his head and said:

"The chief will not forget the merits of my lord! But there are a lot of people who have offended adults over the years, and now the hundred officials are basically impeaching adults, Gui Mingjian needs to give these people an explanation, otherwise the Qin and Jin Legalists will not be able to have a far-reaching impact! ”

Zhang Tang suddenly smiled bitterly, he understood everything.

"Huh! Is it? Speaking of this, Zhang Tang looked at Zhao Yu.

"Among them, there is also your boost! Zhao Yu, you were brought out by me, what kind of person are you, don't I know? I expected this day to happen, but I didn't expect it to be so sudden! Speaking of this, Zhang Tang shook his head, then sighed and said:

"That's it! If you want to replace it, it will be done for you! I hope I don't embarrass my family after I'm gone! After speaking, he didn't wait for Zhao Yu's response, and a wry smile appeared on his face.

"The law is as strict as a knife, and all causes and effects are understood!" After finishing speaking, I saw a trace of blood on Zhang Tang's erect neck, and gradually blood continued to gush out.

Zhang Tang died, died in Tingwei Prison.

Zhuang Qingzhai, who was not far away, was shocked when he saw this.

"You~!" It's a pity that I don't know how to say it below.

Zhao Yu looked at Zhuang Qingzhai and said:

"Prime Minister, you will soon go down to meet Zhang Tang, you are not alone, you can continue to fight below! Ha ha! After speaking, Zhao Yu left.

Zhao Yu was not afraid that Zhuang Qingzhai would tell him about it, because Zhuang Qingzhai himself could not be protected. The Qin and Jin Legalists were not without action, and they had prepared everything to rescue Zhang Tang, but Zhao Yu concealed everything and forced Zhang Tang to death.

The news of Zhang Tang's suicide was reported by Zhao Yu to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and at the same time said that Zhang Tang showed his innocence by dying. And recently, after a lot of investigation, it was found that Zhang Tang was very incorruptible, and there were only 500 gold at home, which was personally rewarded by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

And when Zhang Tang's family was dug three feet into the ground, nothing was found.

Originally, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to wait and wait for a good time to release Zhang Tang, but Zhang Tang died.

Emperor Wu of Han suddenly felt an inexplicable anger in his heart, and then pressured people to investigate, and sure enough, something came out of the investigation. All the evidence shows that Zhang Tang was falsely accused of accepting bribes.

Immediately, the mastermind Zhu Maichen, Wang Dynasty, and Bian Tong were arrested, and after a harsh interrogation by Zhao Yu, everything fell into place.

Immediately, the three were beheaded by the order of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Although Zhuang Qingzhai is only considered an accomplice, he is also suspected of fueling the troubles, so Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is not ready to release Zhuang Qingzhai and restore him to the position of prime minister.

During this period, when the envoy of Minyue arrived, he asked Emperor Wu of Han to send troops to help Minyue tide over the difficulties, and also said a lot of stakes, saying that Chu Tianshu was extremely powerful. Emperor Wu of Han was in a particularly bad mood recently, especially when he heard these words, so he directly ordered the envoy to be killed on the spot.

In December, when Zhuang Qingzhai learned about this, he immediately felt bitter.

"Your Majesty has changed, he has become arbitrary, and he no longer listens to persuasion!" Thinking of this, Zhuang Qingzhai also committed suicide, because he was already disappointed in this court.

Subsequently, the position of prime minister was held by Zhao Zhou, during the period when Zhuang Qingzhai was imprisoned, Zhao Zhou was only the acting prime minister, and now it is the real definite status.

At this time, Chu Tianshu's army had already surrounded the royal capital of Minyue.

The Minyue royal family had already known that the envoy had been killed, and they immediately felt very resentful of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in their hearts. Yu Shan, the king of Minyue, was very angry in his heart, and originally wanted to hug the thigh of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so he killed his brother Toucheng back then, but now everything is in vain.

Thinking of this, Yu Shan directly gave up resistance and ordered the surrender of Chu Tianshu.

Outside the Minyue Royal City, Chu Tianshu besieged but did not attack, in fact, he was waiting for Minyue to surrender himself, otherwise, the Minyue Wangcheng would not be able to stop the Yin and Yang family and the Mo family's strong men at all.

After taking over the table, Minyue became Chu Tianshu's territory.

Chang'an, after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty knew this, he didn't care.

"Hmph~! The more people repeat themselves, Chu Tianshu, you are asking for hardship! In another year, I will let you know the gap between you and me! ”

After dealing with the affairs of Minyue, he soon entered the third year of Yuanding.

In this year, Chu Tianshu continued to attack Yuedi, using Minyue as a springboard to take the small countries established by the Yue people such as Dongyue and Nanyue.

Directly relying on the deterrence and crushing of force, Yuedi has become Chu Tianshu's territory, and it has not been used for a year.

Back then, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not want to recover Yuedi, but with the existence of the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could not draw troops, so he let Chu Tianshu pick up a bargain.

However, Emperor Wu of Han didn't care anymore.

As time passed, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty became more and more violent, and the slightest unsatisfactory thing could cause Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to kill him.

Therefore, gradually the civil and military officials were more afraid of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

And Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is not very fortunate for the queen Wei Zifu, because Wei Zifu no longer has the charm of a young woman, although the maintenance is good, but the internal aging, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty knows.

Therefore, in order to alleviate his temper, Emperor Wu of Han began to favor many young concubines in the palace.

Several of the most likable of them gave birth to sons for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the pressure on Wei Zifu suddenly increased dramatically. But thinking about his son, now he is the eldest son, and he is the prince, and he is not a waste, and his strength is very strong.

Every year, Liu Ju will leave Kunming Chi to visit his mother Wei Zifu, Liu Ju also showed his strength, it is very weird, now thirteen-year-old Liu Ju, the same height as an adult, is still very mature.

Whenever Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was fortunate to her, Wei Zifu would only feel at ease if he thought about his son's achievements.

Let's not talk about these things first, after Chu Tianshu defeated Yuedi, he had no intention of managing it, but he directly used the secret method to control some people, so he let it go, and the next thing was to face the confrontation with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

There is still half a year, and the deadline set by the world consciousness is about to arrive, and then it will be the beginning of the dispute between Chu and Han.
