Chapter 145: A Gathering of Stars

"I'm afraid there's chaos in this city." Steward Liu leaned against the wall and sighed.

Ye Ban bit the fruit, "It's already messed up, you don't know if you don't go out, now, it's just adding fuel to the fire."

Steward Liu probed, "Alas, speaking of this, I'm curious, when did this day start to change?"

Ye Chao was just about to speak, but Steward Liu stood up straight and bowed and said, "Lord Wang......"

Gu Changkan was angry, "Why don't you tell me to know?"

Ye Chao glanced at the inner courtyard and sneered: "The prince is drunk and gentle, and specially told us not to disturb, do we dare?"

Steward Liu pulled him down and asked him to say a few words, Gu Changkan's face was so gloomy that he could drip, "It's so good, the wings are hard."

Gu Changkan seemed to have forgotten that he was untidy and was about to go out, but Steward Liu stepped forward to stop him, "Lord Wang, don't worry, the waste prince has already entered the palace." You change your clothes first......

"Already in the palace?" Gu Changkan had a headache.

Steward Liu said cautiously, "Yes, the Queen Mother has summoned."

Gu Changkan gritted his teeth and hated it, not knowing what to say, he shook his hand angrily and walked to the inner courtyard.

Behind him, Steward Liu persuaded Ye Chao bitterly, "What are you so good at? Isn't it an honor that the prince didn't put anyone else around, only you?"

Ye Chao shook off his hand, "Honor? They have already led their troops to fight, but I am sitting here as a little master bookkeeper, what is there to be proud of?"

"Hey, ......" Steward Liu watched Ye Mingyang walk away, knowing that he had long been dissatisfied with Gu Changkan's arrangement, and it was just this season, and his ambitions came out.

Ciying Palace.

Empress Dowager Yang sat on the phoenix throne in full costume, and the Dongzhu in her ears was dazzling with candlelight, "After a long time, is King Jin okay?"

Gu Zhe'an's perfunctory chin bowed, "It's okay, I don't know if the Queen Mother is okay?"

Empress Dowager Yang took a sip of tea, "Naturally. Sit."

Gu Zhe'an sat down and didn't touch the tea.

Empress Dowager Yang sneered, "You are all in the Mourning Palace, tea or something, it's all a decision."

Gu Zhe'an pinched the teacup, "Not necessarily. My soldiers are coming to the city, and Gu Changkan's soldiers and horses have gone to guard the frontier, who can stop me?"

Empress Dowager Yang held the empty teacup in her hand and shook it, "There are 10,000 soldiers defending the city of the Mourning family, 50,000 forbidden troops in the palace, plus patrol battalions and soldiers from various prefectures, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses outside the city, what can it be used for?"

Gu Zhe'an laughed, "10,000 defenders of the city will be like straw, the patrol battalion and the government soldiers are vulnerable, and the forbidden army can only defend this imperial city, out of this palace gate, there are fishing nets."

Empress Dowager Yang lowered her head and admired the dankou on her fingers, "Gu Zhe'an, your Shaozhou has killed three thousand soldiers. Since you have already committed treason, why do you have to say it so high-soundingly, and it is the face that came from you?"

Jiang Ning and the others behind Gu Zhe'an had already tightened their grips on the knife, but Gu Zhe'an didn't panic at all, "I didn't commit treason. The Queen Mother has the face to control the government for several years, why don't I have the face to come to Zi?"

Empress Dowager Yang glanced at him, "How can you compare to the mourning family. The mourning family has worked hard for Chen Guo over the years, who can say that the mourning family is not satisfied?"

"Under your governance, Chen Guo is not thriving, the family is fighting for power, there is no way out, Gu Changkan is always leading the military and political power, isn't this your fault?" Gu Zhe'an threw the teacup out, but his wrist couldn't stop hurting, he slowly withdrew his hand and hid it in his sleeve to rub it.

Empress Dowager Yang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, "Do you think the mourning family doesn't want to promote the Hanmen? Do you think the mourning family is willing to be swayed by the family? Gu Zhe'an, if you sit in the position of the mourning family, you may not be able to do better than the mourning family!"

Gu Zhe'an stood up, "It took Zhou Guo forty years to balance the family and the Han family, what about Chen Guo's forty years?"

Empress Dowager Yang filmed the case, "Zhou has Xie Heng, who is in the mourning family?"

Gu Zhe'an: "Xie Heng is a military general, what does the battle between the poor family have to do with him?"

Empress Dowager Yang sneered, "It's because you don't have enough knowledge. Xie Heng is just a military general...... Hahaha, this must be the biggest joke the mourners have heard over the years!" Empress Dowager Yang begged at him, "Xie Heng is the most dazzling existence in the generation of the mourning family. What you now call a rising star,

Compared to him, they are all pearls of rice!"

Gu Zhe'an's knowledge of Xie Heng when he was the prince came from his military exploits, and when he heard such a high evaluation of Empress Dowager Yang, he pursed his lips and was silent.

Empress Dowager Yang poured herself a cup of tea, "Gu Zhe'an, you only know that the Jiangzuo family is headed by the Xie family, but you don't know that it's him, on behalf of the family, who took a step back above the court of the Zhou State and let the Han family come out, he recommended Yin Beichen, Zhao Huaijin and a bunch of Han disciples to the Emperor of the Zhou State, this is the first step in Zhou Guoan!"

Jiang Ning's eyes behind the mask have been following Empress Dowager Yang, and he is not shocked in his heart It is fake, Xie Heng has always stood behind the scenes of these things, and how did Empress Dowager Yang, who was far away in Linzi, know so much detail?

Gu Zhe'an sat back slowly, and Empress Dowager Yang asked, "His Royal Highness King Jin, come, you tell me, is the family of the Chen Kingdom willing?" It's not that the mourning family hasn't opened the way for the poor family over the years, it's the family, they suppress the cold family, and try to monopolize the government, if it weren't for the mourning family, what would be the situation of Chen Guo now?"

Gu Zhe'an's throat was dry, and Empress Dowager Yang slowly leaned back, "Zhou has Xie Heng, and Nan has Xiao Zhiyi, what is the mourning family?" There is only one endgame for the mourning family!"

Gu Zhe'an said sarcastically: "The Queen Mother has made a good move, I think I am a qualified prince, but for some reason, the Queen Mother has to abolish me."

Empress Dowager Yang narrowed her eyes and sighed, "In everyone's heart, there are things that are unseemly." z.br>

Gu Zhe'an was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand, pointed to the outside of the hall and said, "Because you see something unsightly in your heart, do my mothers and my relatives deserve to die?" Yang Yunkuo, isn't my mother treating you well enough? She knows that you are ambitious and talented, and she has made you, a concubine, a queen......

"Shut up! What do you know? Gu Zhe'an! This position of queen was earned by the mourning family themselves!" Empress Dowager Yang scolded him sharply, "The mourning family said, everyone has something unsightly in their hearts, the mourning family is, and so is your mother and concubine!"

Gu Zhe'an shook his head sadly, "My mother has always been kind to people and has never been pickled."

Empress Dowager Yang wiped the corners of her eyes and smiled, "Gu Zhe'an, why do you think I know Xie Heng so well, when the mourning family was young, he was not the only talented son. What was the identity of the mourning family back then? It's just your mother's dowry."

Empress Dowager Yang's meaning is already very clear, but Gu Zhe'an's mother is gentle and virtuous, and he does not agree with Empress Dowager Yang's accusations of gaffe, and he still has trust in his mother.

Empress Dowager Yang didn't bother with this matter, her gaze seemed to have passed through many years, "When the generation of the mourning family was wandering, it was a gathering of stars."

"There are talents in the country, and the current young man is not as bad as he was back then." When Gu Zhe'an was in Shaozhou, he heard the deeds of many rising stars.

Empress Dowager Yang sneered, "Xie Heng, Lin Meng, Jiang Yanzhi, Kong Di, Jiang Yu, Xiao Zhiyi, Liang Nanfeng...... These people who I am afraid you have not heard of much have single-handedly created the world now, and the current rising stars are nothing more than Xie Songzhao, Dou Siyuan, Lin Huchen, Jiang Ning, Jiang Xingzhi, do you see how it compares with back then?"

Gu Zhe'an was about to refute, but he couldn't even recognize the ancestors that Empress Dowager Yang said, but Empress Dowager Yang was extremely patient, "Your mother concubine was originally meant to be said to Xie Heng, but Xie Heng fell in love with the apprentice he taught himself, but the identity of this apprentice was not good, and someone in the Xie family objected, so he invited Guan Yueluo to accept her as a righteous daughter and marry as the daughter of the Jiang family.

Empress Dowager Yang's gaze stayed on Jiang Ning's mask, Tao Cheng's back bowed slightly, his hand holding the hilt of the knife, ready to burst out at any time to kill a bloody path.

Gu Zhe'an couldn't bear it and didn't look back, just looked at Empress Dowager Yang lightly, Zhang Nian's eyes narrowed, and he glanced at the corners of the hall.

Jiang Ning calmly arched his hand, "It's ugly below, I'm afraid of dirtying the eyes of the Queen Mother, so I wear a mask, I don't know why you mistook Jiang Shuai for Jiang Shuai."

Empress Dowager Yang pickled her face and laughed, "Born Jiang Qi at night, the horizontal spear can reach a million divisions. Why, I didn't bring a gun, I'm scared?"

Jiang Ning took off his mask and arched his hand, "The Queen Mother said she laughed."

Empress Dowager Yang looked at Gu Zhe'an faintly, "Your mother is a loyal minister of the Chen Kingdom, if she is."

What should she think when she knows you've surrendered?"

Gu Zhe'an sneered, "Queen Mother, when you speak, you have to think carefully about what you said before, if my mother concubine loves Duke Wu Ning, then how can she be a loyal minister of the Chen State?" Shouldn't it be in Cao Ying's heart in Han?"

Empress Dowager Yang didn't answer this question, "Gu Zhe'an, the mourning family said that they were tired, and they said enough."

Gu Zhe'an stared at the door of the hall vigilantly, Jiang Ning and the others were already ready to draw their swords, but Empress Dowager Yang got up, "The iron-beaten family, the emperor of flowing water, the mourning family will solve the family sooner or later, but you, you have given the mourning family a wonderful opportunity."

Jiang Ning flew up to capture the Empress Dowager Yang, but the apse suddenly rushed out and the soldiers released arrows, forcing Jiang Ning back.

Empress Dowager Yang turned around and laughed, "When you get to the territory of the mourning family, do you dare to go wild? Jiang Shuai, you have to be careful, if you are all folded in the hands of the mourning family, then the prince of Zhou should be sad."

Nian Yi was slightly blessed, "Don't be impatient, our mother's hospitality has always been very good, please move to Bangyuewu." You don't have to try to force the palace or anything like that, because the soldiers you brought with you are all guests, and you can't miss it."

The four words of happiness, no matter what tone they say, are slowly ironic.

Now the situation is very clear, Empress Dowager Yang blockaded Linzi, the imperial city was under martial law, and they were placed under house arrest. Empress Dowager Yang was not afraid of their soldiers.

"Yang Yunkuo! What are you mad about?" Gu Changkan finally rushed to the palace angrily.

Regent's Palace, Lanyue Xuan.

"Master Hou, Jiang Shuai has already entered the palace." Gui Hong turned the charcoal fire to make the house warmer.

Xie Song held the big and sighed into the palm of his hand, "Very good, let's clean up and prepare to enter the palace."

Gui Hong turned around, "Aren't we under house arrest now? How do you get into the palace?"

Xie Songzhao covered his ears, "Of course our good neighbor took us in."

Gui Hong glanced at the courtyard next to him, his face was dark, his ears were good, and he had been tortured by the voice on the other side of the wall in the past few days, "She?"

Xie Songzhao stretched out his hand to bake the fire, "Yes, what can be done outside has been done, and the last thing we have to borrow from others, it doesn't matter inside or outside the palace." The Ming Dynasty has been in the palace for so long, and the layout is almost complete, so let's rely on him to protect us when we enter."

Gui Hong tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Master Hou, you said it lightly, how can Wen Gujiang help us?"

Xie Songzhao laughed, "She wants revenge, she can't do it on her own, I help her, she will definitely not refuse."

It was raining in Chen Guo, and the sound of rain outside the window knocked on the window lattice, Xie Song got up, "Let's go, don't make them wait for a long time."
