"You all go out and wait, and no one is allowed to enter the courtyard without my command."

Emperor Yongping made a decree with a gloomy face.

"Yes!"

All the palace maids responded in unison and hurriedly walked out, for fear that they would be left behind if they walked slowly.

Although they didn't know what was happening, they could guess it...... Harem, I'm afraid something big has happened.

After everyone left, Gu Ming pointed at Xin Jiuniang and said, "Your Majesty, she is Xin Jiuniang." ”

Although Emperor Yongping had been mentally prepared, his mood was still very complicated when he saw the "Princess Qing" who had completely changed her appearance.

"Your Majesty, this goblin has been controlled by the slave family, please send it to the emperor."

Xin Jiuniang saluted Emperor Yongping.

"That...... Can you wake her up first? I...... I have something to ask her. ”

After all, a husband and wife are 100 days a day, even if they want to kill, they must make their words clear.

"Well, yes, the emperor."

Xin Jiuniang answered, raised her hand and flicked it, and Ning Ji woke up, but her body still couldn't move.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Please save your concubines......"

"Shut up, until now, do you still dare to pretend in front of me?"

"Concubine ......"

Concubine Ning subconsciously glanced at Gu Ming, and seeing Gu Ming's playful smile, she knew that the general trend had gone, and she started acting immediately.

"Your Majesty, ask the emperor for mercy, the concubines are at fault, and the concubines should not deceive the emperor......

However, the concubines were also forced, and the Dharma Abbot was profound, and he forced the concubines to enter the palace to confuse the emperor, and the concubines couldn't help themselves......"

At this time, Gu Ming couldn't help but say: "Don't quibble, maybe you couldn't help yourself at first, but what you did later, wasn't it for your own sake?" Want to be pampered all in one? ”

"Aiqing, what else did she do?"

Emperor Yongping couldn't help but ask.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember Lord Liu, the envoy of the Imperial Hospital?"

"This ...... It's hard to ......"

At the mention of this, the emperor couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and his heart sank.

"That's right, Lord Liu is wronged, everything is a conspiracy of this goblin......"

"Your Majesty, there are no concubines, there are no concubines, there are no concubines ......"

"Shut up!"

Emperor Yongping felt a little harsh when he heard that this goblin still called himself a concubine.

"Tell me honestly, what the hell is going on? Lord Liu, and my Concubine Xuan, did you kill you? ”

"Concubine...... Slave family, slave family has no ......"

Concubine Ning still wanted to quibble.

"Your Majesty, this goblin won't confess his guilt easily, so why don't you hand it over to the ministers."

Emperor Yongping nodded: "It's okay, if this matter is not clarified, I will be uneasy." ”

As a result, Gu Ming used a little trick to make this goblin tell the truth obediently......

In fact, the cause of the incident is very simple, because this goblin is too suspicious.

Once, she overheard the conversation between two palace maids next to Concubine Xuan, and one of the palace maids said that Concubine Xuan often said that Concubine Ning was a goblin, otherwise how could the emperor be fascinated?

This is a common thing, because most women are like this, and they often like to say that the other party is a goblin.

Concubine Ning entered the palace not long ago, for fear of being discovered, and the emperor favored Concubine Xuan more at that time, so he had a poisonous plan and wanted to get rid of Concubine Xuan and remove the stumbling block.

But she knew that it was not easy to get rid of a concubine, and it had to be a big sin.

After thinking about it, he cleverly used the demon method to make his little belly slowly bulge, and hypothesized that he was pregnant. At that time, even the imperial doctor was deceived by her, thinking that she really had it.

After that, he pretended to have tire gas......

The death of the envoy of Liu Yuan and others is nothing more than a foil, the purpose is to make things bigger.

The most critical evidence is Concubine Xuan's confession, which was indeed written by Concubine Xuan, but she wrote it in an unconscious state.

Because she fell for Concubine Ning's demon law, she didn't know what she wrote.

After writing a confession, he committed suicide by hanging himself......

"Bold and wicked, you ...... You actually killed my beloved concubine and my imperial doctor......"

After hearing the reason, Emperor Yongping was so angry that he wanted to strangle this goblin with his own hands.

"Your Majesty, the dragon body matters."

Gu Ming persuaded, and then said: "This goblin has done a lot of evil, and he can't stay any longer." ”

As soon as she heard this, Concubine Ning hurriedly begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please spare the lives of the slave family......"

"Spare your life? I hate that I can't put you to death! Gu Aiqing, kill this goblin, I will never see her again! ”

……

Soon after.

Gu Ming came to the imperial study.

At this time, Emperor Yongping's demeanor looked strangely tired, and he completely lost the state of the Son of Heaven in the past.

"Gu Aiqing, this time...... I really want to thank you, otherwise the development of events would really be unimaginable. ”

"Your Majesty, this is what a minister should do."

"I'm really ...... I really can't imagine it...... That's it, let's not talk about the past, Aiqing, how should this matter be handled? How should I explain it to my ministers, to the people of the world?

The protector of the country was sealed by me, but it turned out to be a thousand-year-old demon...... Now, I'm afraid that my reputation will be ruined, and even attract the ridicule of people all over the world. ”

"Your Majesty, if you are not a sage, who can be without fault? But it's really not a good thing to make a fuss......"

Emperor Yongping couldn't help but ask: "That...... Is there a way for Aiqing to cover up this matter? ”

"I'm afraid this won't work, after all, it's very wide-ranging. However, Wechen has an idea......"

"Oh?" Emperor Yongping's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "What idea?" ”

"Actually, anything can be split into two, and we can try to make it develop on the good side and shift people's focus appropriately......

For example, this time, the emperor can claim to the outside world that he has long seen through the true face of the Fazhang, but this old demon has secretly abducted the families of many ministers to threaten these ministers to submit to him.

So, the emperor temporarily stabilized this old demon and secretly sent someone to rescue the hostages......"

Hearing this, Emperor Yongping's eyes couldn't help but light up, and at the same time he seemed to be a little embarrassed and said, "But, this ...... It's all Aiqing's work, I ...... I'm afraid it's a little unfair to Aiqing by doing this. ”

This is also Gu Ming, if it were other courtiers, he would not have said such intimate words.

Isn't there a saying that the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die, and even the emperor's life is the emperor's, let alone the credit.

It's just that Gu Ming is not an ordinary courtier, and Emperor Yongping naturally has to treat him differently.

Gu Ming couldn't help but smile: "This is a special situation, at present, the most important thing is to appease people's hearts and maintain the stability of the court......

There is another sentence that Gu Ming didn't say, he still has to maintain the emperor's image, he believes that the emperor knows it in his heart, and there is no need to say it so clearly.

"Hahaha, yes, yes, what Aiqing said is reasonable. But Aiqing rest assured, I know your merits, and when the turmoil subsides, I can promise here that I will never treat Aiqing badly. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, in addition to diverting the focus of this matter, we also need to use other events to divert people's topics and reduce the heat of this matter.

For example, the emperor can choose a time to deal with Ni Chenggui and his party, after all, this is a major rebellion, and it will definitely attract the attention of the people of the world. ”

"Well, that makes sense......"

"There is another thing, this rebellion, including the matter of the abbot, will inevitably have a considerable number of officials to be dealt with.

Although the imperial court has a reserve of officials, I am afraid that it will be difficult to continue in the future, and there will be a gap.

Therefore, the minister suggested that an Enke ...... might as well be added at the beginning of next spring."

"Add Enko?"

Emperor Yongping was stunned.

Under normal circumstances, the imperial court will only hold a township examination and a meeting examination every three years, which is a regular subject.

However, there are also special circumstances, such as the emperor's wedding, the palace ceremony, etc., in order to show the emperor's grace, the imperial court will generally add a imperial examination, which is Enke.

"Yes, in fact, the addition of Enke this time is also famous, after all, the imperial court prevented a turmoil in time that was very likely to endanger the foundation of the Great Yan Dynasty, so that the people of the world could avoid a war, which in itself is a matter worthy of celebration by the whole world."

"Hahaha, what Aiqing said is so right......"

Emperor Yongping's mood finally improved a lot.

He naturally guessed Gu Ming's good intentions, firstly, the current situation does need to increase some official reserves, and secondly, the addition of Enke will inevitably attract the attention of countless people, which means that the focus of people's attention has been shifted.

Taking this opportunity, Gu Ming threw out another topic: "If the emperor is not enough, you might as well take this opportunity to directly announce the cancellation of the ban on martial arts, so as to pave the way for future development in advance." ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Emperor Yongping raised his eyebrows......

In fact, he had already approved Gu Ming's previous proposal to lift the ban on martial arts.

The lifting of the ban on martial arts will actually have little impact on the vast majority of the people, but it will play a crucial role in promoting the delicate relationship between the imperial court and the rivers and lakes.

When the time comes, the imperial court can also set up martial arts academies in various places to train martial arts talents for the special combat units to be created in the future.

"Your Majesty, if you propose to lift the ban on martial arts on weekdays, you will definitely attract the opposition of countless ministers.

But now, the court is in turmoil, the wind is loud, and everyone is in danger, at such a time, how many people dare to stand up and raise objections?

And this time, the emperor has rescued the families of many ministers, aren't these courtiers grateful to the emperor? When the time comes, he will inevitably support the emperor's decision.

Therefore, now is the best time to let the emperor spend a lot less words.

At the same time, once the news of the lifting of the ban on arms is announced to the world, it will inevitably be another major event that will cause a sensation among the people of the world......"

In this way, Gu Ming moved Emperor Yongping step by step, and all of his proposals were adopted.

In the next few days, the capital, including the entire Great Yan Dynasty, was like a change of sky, and the blockbuster news one after another caused an unprecedented sensation.

As expected, although the fact that Pudu Cihang is a thousand-year-old centipede essence has caused a lot of discussions, the popularity of this news has soon dropped......

For a group of readers, Enke is undoubtedly a big deal, which means that they have another chance.

And the number of places that Enke will admit this time is also exciting, even more than Zhengke......

Regarding the rebellion of Ni Chenggui and others, countless people also paid attention to it.

Several first offenders led by Ni Chenggui couldn't run away from the Jiu clan.

The rest of the followers were also punished to varying degrees according to their participation, killing those who killed, those who were closed, and those who were distributed.

As for Prince Qing, because of his special status, Emperor Yongping spared his life.

However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped, and he will be punished by gouging out his eyes and being put in a prison to never see the light of day.

This, in fact, is almost the same as death.

One of his henchmen is naturally unable to escape death.

But nothing is more sensational than the lifting of the ban on arms.

This order has been around for more than a thousand years, and people have long been accustomed to its existence.

This sudden cancellation will naturally arouse great concern, discussion and suspicion among the people of the world, including many people in the rivers and lakes......
