Under the moonlight, the horizontal knife reflected the cold light.

Gao Qi watched in disbelief as the horizontal knife slashed under his neck, just a few short of slashing through his throat.

He stumbled backwards, stumbling back a dozen paces away, and then he barely stood firm.

Gao Qi's eyes widened as he looked at his father, uncle, and cousin who were holding the horizontal knife in front of him.

Under the moonlight, all three of them held horizontal knives.

Looking at him, his eyes were cold.

"Father!" Gao Qi suddenly roared in pain like a wounded beast: "What are you doing, father, I am your son, what are you going to do!" ”

A son, Gao Zhenxing's hand holding the knife couldn't help but be a little relaxed.

A trace of pain, sadness, and helplessness flashed in his eyes.

And the resolute.

"That's right, you're my son." Gao Zhenxing looked at Gao Qi, held the knife, and said with a painful look in his eyes: "But I am still the descendant of the entire Gao family, and there are tens of thousands of children of the entire Bohai Gao family behind me, what do you want me to do, for you alone, ruined the entire family, ruined the family business and future of countless clansmen?" ”

"Father, what are you talking about?" Gao Qi looked confused, and he still didn't know what was going on.

"What am I talking about, don't you know yourself?" Gao Zhenxing slowly moved forward, looked past Gao Qi, crossed the gate, and said self-deprecatingly: "Just now, the right guard has a thousand cavalry into the city, outside our mansion, a team of thousand cow guards has an order to block the door, my good son, what happened, don't you know?" ”

Gao Qi's face changed suddenly, and then he said with a frightened face: "Donggong...... No. ”

Gao Qi left the East Palace normally today, because he had something on his mind, so he didn't notice the abnormality around him.

But he never thought that after he left the palace today, such a big thing would happen.

"Nothing is impossible." Gao Zhenxing turned his head to look in the direction of the palace and said softly: "The crown prince is finished, the East Palace is finished, and everyone involved in the East Palace is finished." ”

For so many years, from Li Jiancheng, to Li Chengqian, to Li Zhong, who is involved with them will have a good end.

The last Shangguan Yi who was beheaded all over the house, his blood has not dried up until now.

"I don't care about the others, but you are my son, and I will save you." Gao Zhenxing suddenly stared at Gao Qi, Gao Qi suddenly raised his head, what did his father say?

Immediately, Gao Zhenxing shook his head lightly and said with great sadness: "Qi'er, you came to tell your father, did your father save you?" ”

Gao Qi was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and fell silent, his face painful.

……

Gao Zhenxing and Gao Xuan calmly watched Gao Zhenxing and Gao Qi talking, holding the knife tightly in their hands.

Seeing that Gao Qi didn't speak for a long time, Gao Zhenxing shook his head and said bitterly: "Many things, you think you do secretly, but you don't know that everything you do is in the eyes of others......"

"Father." Gao Qi looked at Gao Zhenxing in a hoarse voice, and said with red eyes: "Father, what do you know that you have to put your son to death?" ”

"In Chang'an, you liaise with the Turks; In Yizhou, you colluded with King Jiang; In Luoyang, you help the prince transport the armor into the palace. ”

After a slight pause, Gao Zhenxing looked at Gao Qi and directly exposed: "Although you didn't move the guards in the mansion, you used them as a cover to attract the attention of the secret guards, but you went to contact the retired soldiers of the right guard......"

"How did my father know?" Gao Qi suddenly sweated profusely, and subconsciously interrupted Gao Zhenxing.

He didn't expect that the deepest secret he and the prince had hidden would be known to his father.

Gao Zhenxing sneered: "You and the prince used the Turks and the guards at home to attract the attention of the secret guards, but you secretly took the roster of the right guard to recruit those soldiers who served from the right guard, you are really good, this method has also been thought of." ”

"And how did my father know?" Gao Qi stared at Gao Zhenxing.

Gao Zhenxing sneered, shook his head and said: "What do you have that your father doesn't know, the people around you are all arranged for your father, do you think they will hide it from your father?" ”

"So the father knew about his son's recruitment of dead soldiers for the crown prince for a long time?" Gao Qi suddenly became indifferent, looked at his father coldly, and sneered: "When the prince had the opportunity, the father didn't say a word, and now that the prince has failed, the father will cut off the relationship with his son, and even kill his son...... Father, you are a good father to your son. ”

"The prince is defeated, because you, those things of yours, have colluded with the entire Gao family, according to the law, you will be sentenced to the clan." Gao Zhenxing slowly pulled out a piece of white silk from his body, looked at Gao Qi seriously and said: "So, for the sake of the entire Gao family, for the entire Bohai Gao clan tens of thousands of people, Da Lang, you choose for yourself." ”

"Does my son have a choice?" Gao Qi's expression was extremely depressed, and he stepped forward step by step, grabbing the white silk in Gao Zhenxing's left hand.

At the moment when the two were next to each other, Gao Zhenxing slashed with a horizontal knife in his hand, directly slashing at Gao Qi's neck.

Gao Xianxing on his side shot at the same time, and stabbed Gao Qi's heart in an instant.

At the same time, a short knife appeared in Gao Qi's hand, and the short knife swung at his father Gao Zhenxing, but it was directly swung into the air.

But the horizontal knife had already been cut out from under the neck, and the gushing blood sprayed directly on Gao Zhenxing's body.

His own son's blood.

Another horizontal knife also stabbed into Gao Qi's chest at the same time, piercing directly through the back.

The blade was withdrawn, and the corpse fell to the ground.

At this moment, Gao Zhenxing said softly and sadly: "Da Lang, don't worry, the three hundred dead soldiers have been solved for you by my father." ”

Turning around, Gao Zhenxing looked at Gao Xuan, nodded and said, "The rest will be handed over to Guogong for disposal." ”

Gao Zhenxing never looked at his son's corpse.

Gao Xianxing sighed lightly, waved his hand, put away his long knife and walked towards his courtyard, full of depression.

Shen Guogong raised his long knife and looked at Gao Qi's neck.

Blood exploded.

O Prince,

……

Outside the gate of Guangli Fangfang, Zhao Gong stood calmly.

Thousands of black horsemen had already rushed into Guangli Fang and began to hunt down the Turks who had been targeted.

Tengge looked at the killing in front of him in disbelief.

His face was full of sorrow.

He didn't expect that he would stay in Luoyang with his clansmen and end up like this.

Suddenly, Zhao Gong's faint voice came: "Don't be sentimental, today's events have nothing to do with you, these people who were killed were all Turkic dead soldiers left in Luoyang." ”

Tengge was slightly stunned.

At this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded, and three black-clothed guards appeared in front of Zhao Gong, and then a secret letter was handed over.

Zhao Gong opened the secret letter, looked at it, and he was stunned.

At three o'clock, Gao Qi returned home, and within a moment, Gao Qi died.

Gao Zhenxing, the general of the right guard, stabbed his son in the throat with a sword.

Gao Zhenxing's brother, the servant of the household department, and Gao Zhenxing stabbed him in the abdomen again.

Shen Guogong Gao twisted off his head and abandoned it into the road......

Gao Qi is dead?

Zhao Gong frowned.

Gao Qi is the person most involved in the prince's affairs, and the secrets of this matter all depend on him to collude.

When he died, the thread was broken.

"Send a message to the palace immediately, please order to inspect the Shenguo Mansion." Zhao Gong immediately handed back the secret letter, and the three secret guards immediately turned around and galloped towards the palace.

Zhao Gong's eyes narrowed slightly: What a ruthless method.

His father stabbed him in the throat, his uncle stabbed him in the abdomen, and his cousin cut off his head.

Finally he fell into the way.

When did Datang have such a murderous and inhuman family.

The family style inherited by Shen Guogong Gao Shilian is not like this!

Could it be that in Gao Qi's hands, there are still some unknown secrets.

The history of the prince's contacts abroad, the generals, the hidden money, the manpower, the blades, and so on.

Zhao Gong must figure out these things.

Then in addition to Gao Qi, the crown prince must also know these things...... Wait, the Gao family also knows.

Shaking his head, Zhao Gong looked at Guangli Fang in front of him, the fire was burning.

You still have to ask for a holy decree, although Zhao Gong is the commander of the secret guard, but to investigate the general of the right guard, you still need the emperor's holy decree.

Not only Luoyang, but also Huaiyuanfang in Chang'an.

……

Chang'an Kaihuafang, approaching late at night.

The sudden sound of fighting came faintly from the west.

Many people don't realize the mystery here, but many old guards at home clenched the long knife in their hands at the first time.

Liu Jinyu and Ouyang stood in the courtyard.

Liu Jinyu, who was already six months pregnant, directly ordered: "Li Bi, contact with other royal palaces, so that everyone does not move, and at the same time notify Fang Zheng, and send more Fang Ding to guard the door of the fang...... Everyone, except Fang Zheng, should not leave their homes. ”

Fang is the person in the imperial court system, and what they do is within the scope of the imperial court law.

But the actions of the people in the royal mansions at this time will make people vigilant.

"Whoa!" Li Bi handed it over, and then quickly went to the arrangement.

"Mother, go back." Liu Jinyu looked at the Ouyang clan and said softly: "Today is just a small turmoil, and these things can't implicate the palace." ”

"Da Lang has already made arrangements before leaving?" Ouyang immediately understood.

Liu Jinyu nodded and said, "What should be done, everything has been done, don't worry, as for the rest, Ah Weng will take care of it." ”

At the mention of Liu Renliang, Ouyang finally felt relieved, but she still shook her head and said, "It's better for Sanniang to go back to them, and several of you are still pregnant." ”

Liu Jinyu looked at Pei Shitong and Koji Dou'er who came out of the courtyard on both sides, and said: "That's it, tonight Dou'er and Tong'er will sleep with Sanniang, and the mother concubine will also go back, Li Bi is in the front yard, and Mr. Su and Mr. Zhou are waiting in the atrium, and it is easy to mobilize manpower to deal with anything." ”

Looking at Liu Jinyu's determined expression, Ouyang nodded and said, "Okay, so be it." ”

Liu Jinyu beckoned everyone to enter the house, and at the moment of entering the house, she couldn't help but look in the direction of Huaiyuanfang, according to the plan, the people who should move tonight have already moved.

……

"Edict, Zuo Jin Wu Wei Lang will be Qin Ming, and he will be promoted to Zuo Jin Wu Wei Zhong Lang General." Li Zhi calmly looked at Li Jingxuan on the table in front of him.

Li Jingxuan quickly finished writing the holy decree, and then handed it to the left.

Liu Xianli glanced at the table on the left, and after there was no mistake, he immediately used the seal.

The next moment, a Qianniuwei had already quickly received the order, and then rushed to Chang'an.

Empress Wu sat beside the emperor and was silent.

Qin Ming was promoted from Zuo Jin Wu Wei Lang General to Zuo Jin Wu Wei Zhong Lang General.

His father, Qin Sidao, is the general of Zuo Jin Wuwei, which will greatly increase the Qin family's right to speak in Zuo Jin Wuwei.

But this is all temporary, just a temporary use of the Qin family to balance Fang Xianzhong's power in Zuojin Wuwei.

Once the matter is settled, Qin Ming and Qin Sidao will immediately transfer one of them, and this person is most likely Qin Ming.

A rush of footsteps sounded outside the hall, and then a thousand cow guards placed a notebook on top of the imperial case.

Empress Wu glanced at it and frowned.

"What's wrong?" The Emperor asked.

"Gao Zhenxing, Gao Shenxing and Gao Xuan, the three of them made a move and killed Gao Qi." Empress Wu's eyes were extremely solemn.

The emperor was also stunned.

Gao Qi's father, uncle, and cousin directly killed Gao Qi.

"Your Majesty, as soon as Gao Qi died, many things were broken." After a slight pause, Empress Wu shook her head and said, "I'm afraid this matter can't be investigated deeply, this matter is too damaging to Shengwei." ”

"Yes, it's the first time I've seen such a murderous father kill his son in so many years, it's too unethical." Li Zhi raised his head and said in a cold voice: "Spread the decree, depreciate Gao Zhenxing to the history of Chaozhou Thorn, Gao Xianxing to degrade to Yuzhou Thorn History, and Gao Xuan to Guishan County Order." ”

"Whoa!" Li Jingxuan quickly drafted the decree, and Liu Xianli immediately used the seal, and at the moment when Qianniuwei passed the decree, the emperor suddenly spoke: "Wait." ”

"Your Majesty." Empress Wu looked at the emperor in some surprise.

"The Father kills the Son." Li Zhi shook his head, sighed lightly, and said, "Why bother! ”

Looking up, Li Zhi opened his mouth and said: "Spread the decree, summon the king of Han, the king of Teng, the king of Cao, the king of Yue, the king of Jiang, the king of Zheng, and the king of Nanchang to return to Beijing to make a fate." ”

"Whoa!"
