Chapter 481: The Remnants of the Net
Chapter 481: Slipping Through the Net
The emperor glanced at those Xianbei nobles angrily, and then looked at Gu Qingcheng who was angry.
coughed lightly, and said in a somewhat vague rambling voice:
"Back then, the county lord of Anping was still a baby who fell to the ground, and her father rebelled, and she was also innocent. This matter is ......"
Before the emperor finished speaking, Gu Tingcheng didn't appreciate it and interrupted the emperor's words:
"Your Majesty dares to swear to the sky, was my father really a rebellion back then?!"
Tuoba swallowed, a little speechless.
At this time, almost all the ministers of the Xianbei tribe knelt down as if they were colluding.
"Your Majesty, look at it, this demon girl is still so arrogant and arrogant, she is really the remnant of the rebellion!"
"Your Majesty must not appease the Feng Xi brothers and sisters!"
"The king of Liaoxi rebelled back then and exterminated the five clans, regardless of men, women and children, none of them were spared, how could he let that remnant escape the law!"
"If Your Majesty tolerates this demon girl, there will be rebels in the future of the Great Wei, and what exterminates the three clans and the five clans will be equivalent to child's play, and the law will not be lawful!"
……
Tuoba Tao was not only annoyed by Gu Chengcheng's ignorance, but also annoyed by the aggressiveness of the ministers.
He couldn't help jumping up and scolding the ministers: "Are you threatening me?!" ”
Among the courtiers, Han officials such as Gao Yun and Lu Li pleaded with Gu Tingcheng and Feng Xi:
"Your Majesty, the events of the year have passed over time, and the county lord of Anping and the hussar generals have made outstanding contributions to the Great Wei Capital, so please pardon them." Gao Yun came out first to intercede.
Lu Li and other Han ministers also pleaded:
"Please remember the loyalty of the county lord of Anping and the hussar general to the Great Wei, and let the net open!"
In this way, there are two factions.
The Xianbei aristocracy strongly objected:
"If the sins of rebellion can be forgiven, will everyone be presumptuous in the future and forget the laws of the Great Wei!"
The two factions are at loggerheads.
Tuoba and Tuoba Yu also knelt down and pleaded:
"Grandpa Huang, the past is gone, don't pursue the past anymore!"
"Father, the brothers and sisters of Allure were still young back then, even if the king of Liaoxi was guilty, he was not as guilty as the weak!"
At this time, Feiyan untied the package she was carrying, and inside was Da Wei's Danshu iron coupon.
Since he knew that the county lord was the princess of Beiyan, Fei Yan was afraid that the county lord would be killed by the emperor, so the Danshu iron coupon was always on his back.
"Your Majesty, our county lord has the Danshu iron coupon given to her by the ancestor, and our county lord and hussar general don't have to die." The flying geese are smart.
The shocked whispers of those Xianbei nobles and ministers:
"Such a valuable Danshu iron coupon can only be passed on to his own juniors, how can it be passed on to an outsider?"
"Xu was Gu Tingcheng treating the old ancestor, and he stole it while the old ancestor was delirious, right?"
"Even if you didn't steal it, or if you gave some medicine to your ancestors, you cheated it?"
"This Danshu iron coupon actually fell into the hands of an outsider, this Gu Qingcheng is a demon!"
"Hugh is talking nonsense!" Tuoba shouted: "When the ancestor gave the Anping County Lord Danshu Iron Coupon, this king was beside them. As for the reason, you don't need to know! ”
Gu Qingcheng also took out the Danshu iron coupon that day to save Tuoba Yuan, but in the end, Tuoba Yuan did not appreciate it and committed suicide by biting the poison.
Later, Tuoba Tao was very sad, so he didn't delve into this Danshu iron coupon, why the ancestor passed it on to her.
Afterwards, the emperor also thought that the old ancestor regarded Allure as a treasure, even if he gave her his life.
What's more, it's a Danshu iron coupon?
"Son, the old ancestor really gave the Danshu Iron Coupon to Allure, and you were there at the time?" Tuoba Tao asked in shock.
"Indeed!" Tuoba nodded.
How important this Danshu iron coupon is, it is generally reserved for one's descendants.
It can be seen that the ancestors really love the city to the point of being like a house, and regard her as their own flesh and blood!
At this time, those Xianbei nobles were aggressive again:
"It turns out that Gu Tingcheng relied on the ancestor's Danshu iron coupon, thinking that he could avoid death, so he was so lawless!"
"No wonder she dared to be so rampant, and she was even blunt and confessed that she was the remnant of Beiyan!"
"Alright, you all shut up!" Tuoba Tao shouted to those Xianbei nobles, "Now that the county lord of Anping has a Danshu iron coupon, the death penalty can naturally be avoided!" ”
When the Xianbei nobles hated Gu Tingcheng so much, Gu Tingcheng didn't know what to do.
She looked at Tuoba Tao awe-inspiringly.
"Your Majesty, when did I say that I was going to beg for mercy with the Danshu Iron Coupon?"
The emperor and his ministers were stunned, and Gu Qingcheng immediately whispered to the flying geese: "Put away the Danshu iron coupon!" ”
“…… Princess! The geese were so anxious that they stamped their feet.
"My father did not rebel at all, and my Fengmen five clans are not guilty at all, why should I take the Danshu iron coupon to beg for mercy!"
Gu Qingcheng's words were loud.
Tuoba was also in a hurry.
He said to Gu Qingcheng in a low voice: "Let's use the Danshu Iron Coupon to pass this level first." ”
Gu Qingcheng looked at Tuoba coldly, and then looked at Tuoba Tao.
Seeing that the flying geese did not wrap the Danshu iron coupons.
But she packed up the Danshu iron coupon by herself.
Then he looked at the emperor without fear.
"Your Majesty, did my father really plot rebellion back then, or did His Majesty have ulterior motives and want to add to the crime.
Now, my father and princess have died unjustly for many years, and I also ask Your Majesty to give them an explanation and clear their grievances! ”
This Gu Qingcheng not only did not beg for mercy, but also questioned that the emperor deliberately wronged her father back then, and even more wanted to avenge their grievances.
The emperor was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Allure, do you really think that I have wronged your father for other purposes?" ”
"What calculations Your Majesty made back then, and what crooked ideas you had in your heart, you know it!
Do you still want to say it in front of so many ministers?! ”
Gu Tingcheng is still unrelenting.
He also said: "Today, we will seek justice for the souls of the dead!" ”
Straight to Tuoba Tao's face turned red and white.
“…… Okay, if you want to ask for the law, go back to the imperial study, and I will give you the explanation, so that you can be convinced! Tuoba Tao said helplessly.
The Xianbei nobles saw that Gu Qingcheng dared to persecute the emperor and asked His Majesty to give justice to their Feng family.
and secretly rejoiced.
One by one, they gave advice to the emperor:
"Your Majesty, look at this Gu Allure City, so arrogant and arrogant, you dare to make an inch!"
"She was originally a fish who slipped through the net for plotting rebellion and was punished, and now her identity is revealed, hurry up and bring her to justice!"
"Your Majesty, back then, the king of Liaoxi conspired against him, and the evidence was conclusive, Gu Qingcheng and Feng Xi were the remnants of Beiyan, and they were also innocent!"
"Your Majesty has a grudge against her to destroy the country and the clan, she has long been a damned person, and if she is left alive, she will only raise tigers for trouble, which is a danger to Your Majesty and Great Wei!"
"Your Majesty, you can no longer shield even if this conspiracy is remnant!"
This Gu Allure is unforgiving, and the humble and noble is aggressive.
Straight Tuoba Tao was so angry that he jumped like thunder.
"I have my own measure in how I do things, do I still need you to teach me?!"
Tuoba Tao was furious and took the case.
When the noble ministers saw that Tuoba Tao was angry, they all knelt down.
"Your Majesty, we are all loyal, dedicated to Your Majesty, for the century-old foundation of the Great Wei!"
"Your Majesty, don't be loyal, this Beiyan remnant is revenge, Your Majesty can't be soft!"
"Your Majesty has always been decisive in killing, why is he indecisive to that demon girl!"
"You keep talking, what Beiyan remnants!" Tuoba couldn't bear it anymore, and pointed at them and shouted, "The northern countries have long been unified by my Great Wei, regardless of Northern Yan and Northern Liang, they are all subjects of my Great Wei!" ”
Immediately, he snorted coldly at those Xianbei nobles:
"Don't think that this king doesn't know, you deliberately can't get along with her because the lord of Anping abolished the slavery at the beginning, lost your interests, and has always held a grudge!"
King Changshan looked at Tuoba coldly.
"Even if the north is unified, there is no Northern Yan remnant, but Gu Qingcheng and Feng Xi are the people of the five clans who are destroyed by the holy decree." King Changshan confronted, "Could it be that Your Majesty's will back then was wrong?" Is it really an ulterior motive to deliberately wronged Feng Lang, the king of Liaoxi? ”
King Changshan deliberately provoked the dignity of the emperor and did not allow anyone to provoke him.
If His Majesty forgives Gu Qingcheng, it is equivalent to the emperor slapping himself in the mouth, indicating that he really intended to frame the king of Liaoxi for rebellion.
This made it difficult for Tuoba Tao to ride a tiger.
Those Xianbei ministers are also able to attack their hearts, knowing His Majesty's holy decree, there is no mistake, even if it is wrong, it can only be wrong to the end.
Their words are right, once the holy decree is made, there is no wrongdoing, otherwise how can his emperor establish his authority again.
Tuoba Tao wondered how he could get Allure to escape.
"Allure, in fact, you are not the princess of Feng Lang, the king of Liaoxi.
You are Gu Zhongnian's daughter Gu Tingcheng, who made it up and framed you by someone who pretended to be you.
And you're still angry with me, aren't you? ”
Tuoba Tao deliberately asked Gu Qingcheng like this, hoping to hide her identity.
Then he said:
"Pseudo-princess Tana framed you to kill people everywhere, and her words cannot be trusted.
The county lord of Anping was wronged, and now, it can be regarded as justice for you.
This matter is over here, don't worry about it! ”
Just now, Gu Qingcheng has already said that she is the daughter of the king of Liaoxi, and she wants to seek justice for her father, queen and mother.
Your Majesty still wants to cover up the past, and it is clearly biased in favor of the remnants of Beiyan!
Just when those Xianbei nobles were unwilling and felt that His Majesty was clearly confused by that demon girl.
The demon girl Gu Qingcheng, but she didn't know what to do.
"No, Your Majesty, I'm not Gu Qingcheng, I'm the daughter of Feng Lang, the king of Liaoxi.
I didn't know my life experience at the beginning, and I always thought that I was Gu Zhongnian's daughter Gu Qingcheng.
Now I finally know my true identity.
Now that I know my true background, it is impossible for me to forget my ancestors and even recognize my parents in order to make a living! ”
This crazy girl is so stubborn, if she uses Danshu iron coupons to save her life, then she has to recognize her biological parents, but it's okay.
But she is high-spirited, she doesn't want to beg for mercy, but also seeks justice for her parents.
The emperor obviously gave her steps, and she would not go down with the trend.
Fang was so shrewd in exonerating himself, but now he has become confused again!
It's really half dead to Tuoba Tao!
"Allure!"
Tuoba Tao drank a sentence, wanting to stop her from continuing, don't suffer the loss in front of her.
Gu Qingcheng didn't appreciate it.
"If a person can give up even her roots, can she still live shamelessly?
Your Majesty asked yourself, if my father was really condemned for rebellion, His Majesty had no other selfish desires, and he really had a clear conscience.
Then, Your Majesty will kill all the brothers and sisters in Allure! ”
Tuoba Tao closed his eyes in pain and distress.
Tuoba looked at his Allure with pity, and he knew that she would be so stubborn and would not abandon her true identity in order to protect herself.
Feng Xi also said frankly:
"My sister is right, she is lighter than a feather and heavier than Mount Tai. If Your Majesty has not wronged my father, and if my father is really guilty, bring our brothers and sisters to justice! ”
Tuoba Tao was furious, looking at Gu Qingcheng for a long time, his eyes were full of tears:
"Allure, do you really not want to be Gu Allure, but the daughter of a rebel?"
Gu Qingcheng said calmly:
"No, the courtiers have survived in the name of Gu Qingcheng.
If I don't care about the city, the courtiers will not meet the ancestors who love me, will not meet my mountain uncle, and will not meet their lovers.
In order to thank Gu Chengcheng, I still Gu Qingcheng.
But the courtier's daughter is a Fengmen girl, and since she knows her roots, she can't forget her roots.
Therefore, I am not only Gu Tingcheng, but also Feng Tingguo, the orphan of Beiyan. ”
“…… What do you mean by this, are there two identities? Tuoba Tao frowned.
"Yes, dual identity." Gu Tingcheng nodded and said, "I want to live for Gu Tingcheng and Feng Tingguo." ”
King Changshan was aggressive again: "Your Majesty, look, she still admits it, she is the princess of Beiyan, Feng Tianguo!" ”
Dugu was also loyal and stern: "The king of Liaoxi plotted rebellion at the beginning, and her children should also be punished for their crimes, how can Your Majesty tolerate the children of the rebellious ministers again!" ”
The other Xianbei old ministers shouted again:
"Regardless of whether she is a person or a dual identity, as long as she admits the identity of Princess Beiyan, she will be the one who has been killed and slipped through the net."
"This woman is a demon, confusing people's hearts, and she must not stay!"
Tuoba roared at them: "What a charm, what a deception, so presumptuous in front of Your Majesty, don't you want to live?!" ”
Tuoba Yu also said coldly to those Xianbei nobles: "Do you want to persecute Your Majesty? ”
Tuoba Pi also scolded them: "You old things, you know that you are aggressive here, you have the ability, you all give the ninth master to the battlefield, open up the territory!" ”
only made those old nobles stare at them angrily.
A Xianbei nobleman pointed at Gu Qingcheng and scolded in a moment's oblivion:
"This girl is really charming! Charming the descendants of the Tuoba clan, not only His Majesty, the King of Gaoyang, the King of Nan'an, but now even the little Nine Princes are also fascinated by the ......"
"Shut up!" Tuoba Tao was furious.
Flicked his sleeves up, and suddenly pulled out the Xuanyuan sword next to his seat.
The sword shadow in the air shook, and Tuoba Tao flew to the person who spoke wildly with the sword in his hand.
The man fell down and died.
The court was in an uproar.
"Whoever dares to say more will punish the nine clans!" Tuoba Tao then said again.
The aggressive nobles led by King Changshan were so frightened that they crawled on the ground and were silent.
The entire Taihua Hall was silent, and the falling needles could be heard.
Long......
Tuoba Tao looked at Gu Qingcheng sadly, with tears in his eyes.
If he didn't kill Feng Tianguo, it would mean that he had wronged Feng Lang, the king of Liaoxi.
The emperor can't admit that he is wrong at any time, even if he is wrong!
This is the supreme imperial power!
Even if he spoiled the girl again, he had to make a difficult announcement:
"Feng Lang, the former king of Liaoxi, conspired against him and sentenced the five clans. His sons and daughters, Feng Xi and Feng Tingguo, escaped, and now come to the law to ...... according to the law."
"Grandpa!"
Tuoba roared, and suddenly drew his sword and crossed his neck.
Everyone's eyes were on the horizontal sword.
Gu Qingcheng also looked at the Chixiao Sword that he was sticking to his flesh in shock.
Blood has been leaked from the sword!
Tears welled up in her eyes:
Her husband said that life and death go hand in hand, and he is afraid that he will die with her.
