Chapter 77 Disposition
The next day, early in the morning.
Erzhu Ying'e cut off a slice of beef and fed it to Gao Cheng's mouth.
Protecting the cattle is indeed important, but growing bones and building a strong body is even more important for Gao Cheng, who has long been tired of looking at people with his head up.
At this time, a slave came in to communicate, and Yuan Zhonghua asked to see him outside the mansion.
Gao Cheng patiently chewed the beef, swallowed it, and then said slowly:
"Send her back to Qinghe Palace."
Gao Cheng knew very well that Yuan Zhonghua's intention when he saw him was nothing more than to intercede for his father, so he simply closed the door and did not see him.
After that, he looked at Er Zhu Ying'e again and said:
"After eating, you and I will go to the palace."
When I returned to Luoyang yesterday, it was too late, and after a night's rest, it was time to deal with the rebellion.
Erzhu Ying'e nodded, looking at her little man, her face full of happiness.
She picked up another slice of beef and handed it to Gao Cheng's mouth.
Qinghe Palace.
Princess Hu Zhi of Qinghe saw Yuan Zhonghua returning in tears, and her heart was half cold, but she still asked:
"Did Gao Cheng agree?"
The eyes of the family were focused on Yuan Zhonghua, and Yuan Zhonghua lowered his head and choked up:
"He doesn't want to see me."
Hu Zhi's spirit and spirit are visibly decaying with the naked eye.
Luoyang Palace City is majestic, although Gao Cheng is an official and has the power to face the saint at any time, he rarely goes in and out of it.
He Jin's story is a little far away, and the example of Er Zhurong is close at hand.
It was precisely because Miyagi made Gao Cheng insecure that he deliberately arranged for Er Zhu Ying'e to accompany him in addition to Hu Luguang.
The soldiers of the forbidden army met along the way knelt down to Er Zhu Ying'e and thanked her, thanking her for saving her family.
The more he walked, the more gloomy Gao Cheng's face became.
He was worried about the future for no reason, if Erzhu Ying'e's son set off a palace change, would there be anyone in the forbidden army who would be grateful.
Moreover, Er Zhu Ying'e has formed a good relationship with Gao Qian, Li Yuanzhong, Gao Longzhi and others, and has the connections left by Er Zhurong, so I am afraid that after the palace change, the situation can be quickly stabilized.
It was decided that the forbidden army would be transferred from his own lineage, and this group of people would have to be replaced in the future.
Walking outside the Mingguang Palace, Gao Cheng suddenly laughed, thinking that he was even suspicious of his unborn son, he finally understood Gao Huan's defense of himself.
At the beginning, Er Zhurong died in the east wing of the Mingguang Palace, worried that Er Zhu Ying'e would be injured in the scene, Gao Cheng still left her outside the hall, and only brought Hu Luguang to see her.
Xiang Yuanshan saw that he had done the courtesy of a courtier, and Gao Cheng got up and looked at the ten-year-old boy Tianzi.
Although he was imprisoned for a day by Gao Longzhi in the name of a guard, he was a little frightened, but his complexion today was not bad.
"Gao Qing is working hard, why don't you rest for two more days."
Yuan Shanjian said with concern.
"Your Majesty is worried, but the state affairs are important, the minister does not dare to shirk, Qinghe Wang Yuangan and his henchmen conspired against him, His Majesty has issued an edict to reprimand his crimes, and the ministers have come to ask His Majesty for punishment."
"How do you want to punish the crime?"
Gao Cheng took a deep look at Yuan Shanjian:
"Your Majesty, please punish King Qinghe and his henchmen for capital crimes."
Yuan Shanjian's face turned pale, he was silent for a long time, and said:
"Can you keep the life of King Qinghe, and the rest of the party can kill him."
"King Qinghe's rebellion is a clear crime, and the world has seen it, if Your Majesty wants to cover it, I am afraid that it will be criticized by the world."
Gao Cheng refused to back down, since ancient times, he has only punished the first evil, forgave the party followers, and never killed the party henchmen but let go of the first evil.
Yuan Shanjian gritted his teeth and said:
"If I don't agree, will Gao Shizhong want to learn from Gao Long's strength to grab the seal?"
"If the first evil is not eliminated, people's hearts are difficult to decide, and the minister asks His Majesty to punish him with death."
Gao Cheng insisted.
Finally, Yuan Shan's expression was gloomy, and he waved his hand to signal the palace people to hand over the seal to Gao Cheng.
Gao Cheng took out the edict that Chen Yuankang had drafted last night and stamped the seal.
He really couldn't do anything to let Yuan Shanjian personally draft the edict and seal it and give his father to death.
Just as he was about to retire, Yuan Zen saw that he endured his grief and said:
"Please also ask the high-ranking servants not to harm their families, and then leave King Qinghe a decent look."
"Obey."
Out of the Mingguang Palace, without waiting for Gao Cheng to look for it, Lou Zhao had already rushed over.
"Why doesn't Ah Hui wait for King Gao to deal with it?"
Gao Cheng explains:
"How can you bother your father with such an evil deed as forcing your son to kill your father?"
Only then did Lou Zhao react, Gao Huan was indeed a person who cherished his reputation, and he said with annoyance:
"I shouldn't have left a living mouth that day, Ah Hui, you give me the edict of the Son of Heaven and let me dispose of it."
Knowing that Lou Zhao was thinking about him and planning to take over this matter, but since Gao Cheng entered Luoyang, no matter who started it, others would say that it was from Gao Cheng's instructions, so why involve Lou Zhao again, he smiled:
"Killing people is a powerful thing, uncle doesn't have to worry."
Led by Lou Zhao's cronies, Gao Cheng came to the side room where Yuan Yan was detained.
As soon as they met, Yuan Cheng regretted again and again, hoping that Gao Cheng could intercede with Gao Huan.
Gao Cheng was unmoved, he shouted and asked:
"I heard that the king wants to order someone to attack and kill me and my uncle when he welcomes me, but is there such a thing?"
Yuan Yan was speechless, but in order to save his life, he still stubbornly said:
"I was bewitched by Hu Sichun, and I will be at his mercy if I lose my mind."
"When Uncle Yue is planning, you should think of the consequences of failure, you can rest assured, Qinghe Palace, the crime will stop at you alone."
Hearing this, Yuan Yan's legs were weak and he collapsed on the Hu bed.
Gao Cheng took Er Zhu Ying'e out of the side room, leaving Hu Luguang to suffocate Yuan Yan to death with a quilt.
Listening to the movement of the struggle in the room, Gao Cheng's hand holding Erzhu Ying'e became tighter and tighter.
After a while, Hu Luguang walked out and nodded to Gao Cheng.
I don't know since when, Hu Luguang has become his black glove, specializing in dirty work.
Gao Cheng patted Hu Luguang's shoulder and said:
"After the Gyeonggi garrison was formed, Myeongyue went to serve in the army."
Hu Luguang had nothing to do, he knew that Gao Cheng urgently needed to send his cronies to lead the army.
Gao Cheng instructed Lou Zhao's cronies who accompanied him outside:
"King Qinghe died violently, you find someone to send the body to the Qinghe Palace."
After that, he explained uneasily:
"After notifying the family, leave, don't have a dispute."
Yuan Shanjian said that he wanted to leave a decent place, which meant that he should not let Yuan Yan be punished for the crime of treason.
So Gao Cheng gave this dignity, and after Yuan Shansaw it, he successively smothered the three abolished emperors of Yuan Gong, Yuan Ye, and Yuen Long with quilts.
Gao Cheng left the palace city, accompanied by guards, so he also let Erzhu Ying'e go home, and he went straight to Shangshu Province.
Yuan Yan served as Shangshuling, the regent of Shangshu Province, and many important positions of cronies, and now the henchmen who remained in Luoyang have been imprisoned, and the usually busy Shangshu Province is now depressed.
Chen Yuankang was called over by Gao Cheng.
"Who are the Yuan Yan henchmen who have been arrested now?"
"Guangping Wang Yuanzan, Imperial Lieutenant Yuan Zhongjing, Imperial Lieutenant Yuan Xuan, former Jizhou Assassin Shi Yuanfu, Left Guard General Yuan Shun..."
Gao Cheng interrupted:
"Who are the courtiers?"
"Taifu Changsun Zhi, Wang Meng..."
"Is there a mistake?"
"According to the investigation of the Listening and Hope Division, although Yuan Zigong, the founding prince of Linru County, had a lot of dealings with Yuan Yan, he did not participate in it."
"All the people with conclusive evidence were taken to the outside of the gate to be beheaded, confiscated their family property, and their families and children were reduced to civilians and sent to Jinyang for resettlement."
After that, Gao Cheng continued to command:
"The resulting manor was used to house the families of the Gyeonggi soldiers."
