In the middle of the night, it snowed again, and the mournful wind blew through the window lattice, whining.

It was still dark. Gao Wei was sleeping in a daze, but was woken up by a pair of small hands: "Your Majesty...... The emperor is up, it's time to go to court......" Gao Wei opened his eyes and saw that Hu Lu Wan'er was already sitting at the head of the bed with clothes, urging him to go to the court.

"It's almost dawn, the ministers are probably already waiting in the Taiji Palace, Your Majesty hurry up......"

Gao Wei got up from the bed in a daze, and let Hu Lu Wan'er wash him and put on his crown dress and jade belt, Gao Wei was in a state of excitement these days, and often stayed up all night in the Zhaoyang Palace to check the administrative files of Gao Yang, Gao Yin, Gao Yan, and Gao Zhan. Gao Yang founded the country, Gao Yan is also a rare Ming monarch, although they have died, but their legacy of political heritage has been passed on, in the process of their governance of the country there is no lack of some capable officials to assist, but many of them were defeated in the struggle with the ministers, were degraded and deposed, Gao Wei is to do it in his heart, and after overthrowing and Shikai, they were recalled one by one.

The cost of cultivating a capable minister is too high, and Cushman & Wakefield doesn't have much time to wait for them to grow. It is better to temporarily use the old ministers left by the ancestors, not only have enough understanding of the state of the country, but also the loyalty can be determined, the most important thing is that they are familiar with the operation of the imperial court, and once they are recalled, they can ensure the normal operation of the department, and the spirit of the province is very good.

Hu Lu Wan'er stood far away to look at her masterpiece, and saw Gao Wei wearing an imperial crown of twelve chapters of Xuanxi, wearing a flat crown, and twelve strings of white jade hanging beads in front of the door, covering half of Gao Wei's face, making people unable to see the joy and anger of the Son of Heaven, and it became more and more deep as the sea. Although Cushman & Wakefield is still young, he is also tall, and his gestures after being taken away have an indescribable calm temperament. In Hu Lu Wan'er's opinion, this husband who used to be ridiculous and foolish seemed to have become a qualified emperor overnight, this change made her feel caught off guard, but it was heartbreaking, and she was afraid that it was just a dream......

Hu Lu Wan'er put away the obsessive look in her beautiful eyes, lowered her head, bowed down, and said, "The concubine respectfully sends Your Majesty ......"

"Flat ......" Gao Wei understands that at this moment, Hu Lu Wan'er is not talking to him as his wife, but trying to become a good queen who can persuade her husband all the time. In this case, Gao Wei always has to look solemn, "I go to the top, the queen must take good care of herself......" At the moment when Hu Lu Wan'er was confused by his words, Gao Wei leaned forward and leaned forward on the side of her crystal earlobe and said: "I will come to you tonight......"

This sentence made Hu Luwan'er's face burn, biting her red and pink lips and giving Gao Wei a coquettish look, and the momentary demeanor amazed Gao Wei's eyes. Gao Wei stayed with her all night in the past few days, although he did not take the last step, he kissed and hugged him, and the relationship between the two has warmed up a lot compared to before.

Seeing that Hu Lu Wan'er didn't hold back the appearance of "virtuous and virtuous, motherly and virtuous in the world" after all, revealing the delicate appearance of her little daughter, Gao Wei laughed, flicked her sleeves, and turned around and went out.

The snow has not yet stopped, and it is fluttering like catkins flying all over the sky. Xiao Luzi hurriedly opened the canopy umbrella, shrouded in the top of Gao Wei's head, and dozens of samurai dressed in blue and red brocade around him pressed their swords and followed closely to the left and right, with wide robes and large sleeves, and the flying fish pattern on the clothes loomed. The costumes in front of the palace established by Gao Wei are naturally not as exquisite and luxurious as in the Ming Dynasty, but if they are solemn and majestic, I am afraid that they are still excessive, and there is a different style.

"Your Majesty......" Liu Taozhi, the commander of the Yiluan Division in front of the palace who took office the day before yesterday had already been waiting in front, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a while, and his shoulders were covered with snow. Liu Taozhi knelt down and bowed, and then stepped forward quickly, leaning in Gao Wei's ear and saying, "Things are all going in the direction controlled by Your Majesty, Your Majesty can rest assured that ......"

After hanging the beads, Gao Wei narrowed a pair of phoenix eyes, but there was no trace of a smile on his face, just "um", and strode towards the Taiji Hall. As a special place for the deliberations of the previous dynasty, the Taiji Hall is large-scale, and each pillar supporting the hall is so simple and huge, like a giant pillar of optimus, connecting heaven and earth. Magnificent.

At the foot of the white jade steps, a group of courtiers in court clothes had already stood solemnly, and occasionally a few people whispered to each other, but most of them stood quietly, closing their eyes, like old monks in meditation.

With a loud "Your Majesty is coming, the ministers will see you". This is a professional talent, Gao Wei is very curious how this old eunuch shouted out the majesty of the emperor in a feminine voice? Cushman turned out of the apse, calmly climbed onto the dragon chair, and sat down. Looking at the ministers below, the ministers bowed down and saluted, saying, "My emperor has no borders!" ”

Cushman & Wakefield only felt a hustle and bustle of heat coming to his face, which was shocking. Cushman raised his hand and motioned to flatten his body.

In this era, ministers did not need to kneel down to see the king, but only had to bow and bow.

After Gao Wei took his seat, the courtiers also took their seats one after another, and they were seated in the order of dignity and humility. But there was still a vacant seat, very high in the line, and some of the courtiers looked at it with disdain and hatred. This is the position of Shangshu's left servant and Shikai.

Gao Wei was not in a hurry to announce the opening of the dynasty, just sat like this, his eyes glanced at the empty seat playfully, his right arm rested on the seat, and his index finger gently buckled the brass dragon head for a while, which was extremely crisp in the quiet hall, and this increasingly bright rhythm beat like a drum beat in the hearts of the ministers, which seemed to be very pleasant, and seemed to have a murderous aura. Some people's faces changed for a moment, and they hesitated to look at Gao Wei who was sitting on top of him, but he was blocked by the bead curtain, and no one could see the expression on the emperor's face clearly.

Some courtiers' faces changed, frowning, and they didn't understand what Your Majesty meant by this, could it be that if the monks couldn't come, they wouldn't go to court?

Just when everyone below had their own thoughts, Gao Wei spoke slowly: "Zhuqing, do you know where the servant went?" ”

As soon as the words fell, a shout came from below, saying, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" The minister has his own music, and the minister wants to impeach the rebellious ministers, thieves and soldiers! A middle-aged official came out of the ranks, knelt on the ground with a very aggrieved look, and put on a posture of impeachment to impeach and Shikai.

A trace of doubt flashed in Gao Wei's eyes, this is not Gao Rui, the king of Zhaojun, this is Gao Wei's uncle and Empress Dowager Hu's brother Hu Changren. It stands to reason that with Empress Dowager Hu here, he should be in the same camp as He Shikai, how could he impeach He Shikai? Later, Gao Wei seemed to remember that Hu Changren was a scoundrel, and he was a good man all the way. The same two kinds of people have half the chance of being sympathetic to each other, while the other half of them are likely to be disgusting with each other. The relationship between him and Heshikai belongs to the latter category. In recent years, Hu Changren has staged a dog-eat-dog show in order to compete for power with Heshikai, Hu Changren is no match for Heshikai, and he is often cut off by Heshikai The henchmen who have been cultivated with great difficulty are cut off, and he hates Heshikai to the core.

The situation was sudden, and the half foot that Gao Rui had originally stepped out moved back without leaving a trace.

"Let's listen to what this cheap uncle has to say......" Gao Wei said in his heart, and said with a very concerned look: "Aiqing has any grievances to tell me." ”

Hu Changren's heart turned, thinking that it was better to be a nephew, towards himself! So he hurriedly lowered his head, wiped his eyes with the ginger hidden in his sleeve, looked even more sad, and said: "Your Majesty, you want to be the master of the minister, and the monk opened him, he deceived people too much!" ”

He wiped a handful of tears again, and then said: "The minister fell in love with a house a few days ago, and he had already paid the gold and silver to buy it, and he was about to move in, but the younger brother of He Shikai forcibly snatched the minister's house from the seller's hand, and injured the minister's family...... Oh, as the uncle of the country, he has never suffered such a great shame! Yes...... What a shame! ”

After saying that, he actually cried bitterly, beat his chest and howled, and those who heard it were sad and those who saw him cry, which made people unbearable to look at directly. The corners of Gao Wei's mouth twitched, thinking that this uncle would really open his eyes and tell nonsense. When did he spend money to buy something, didn't it all happen by ingenuity? I'm afraid that the monk opened the house to rob him was fake, and the house he fancied was taken by the monk to take the lead is true, right?

Seeing that he was sitting in the main hall without an image and crying, Gao Wei pretended to be angry and asked, "Oh, is this really the case?" ”

Hu Changren was overjoyed, and he almost couldn't hold back his laughter, but he restrained himself, and his face turned purple and black, and he really looked like he gritted his teeth with hatred......

"Uncle Guo's words are wrong...... at the end of the court, and another person stood up and said to Gao Wei: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Uncle Guo's words are too child's play, Uncle Guo and Lord Shizhong are both the humerus of the country, why should they turn against each other for a house?" Harmony should be valued above the court, and the virtue of serving with peace should not be done in such a trivial matter, maybe it will be a misunderstanding......"

Hu Changren's eyes were as red as rabbits, staring at the man viciously, and angrily reprimanded: "Misunderstanding a fart!" He was the one who put the knife on my neck! Gao Anahong, if you are willing to be a monk and a dog, you must also distinguish the occasion, what are you, do you have a point to speak here?! ”

Gao Ananhong's face suddenly turned pale, and he pointed at Hu Changren who was speechless for a long time, and finally flicked his sleeves angrily, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Hu Changren is full of nonsense, and he makes nonsense in this court, which insults the dignity of the court, and the minister proposes to expel Hu Changren from Yecheng!" ”

These two people exchanged words and words, and ridiculed each other, and for a while, the hall of political discussion was like a vegetable market. A group of old ministers glared at these two people in disgust, if it weren't for Gao Wei's face, it is estimated that people would have dragged these two of them down long ago. Gao Wei's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and Gao Ananhong ...... Another traitor!

"Your Majesty, the minister has a play, the minister, impeach Shizhong, Shangshu Zuo Servant and Shikai!" Another courtier stood up in the procession. Gao Wei recognized him, and the official department Shangshu and Shangshu's right servant shot Feng Zicong, which also has something to do with Gao Wei, because Feng Zicong is Gao Wei's uncle. He is one of the few people in the relatives of the Empress Dowager Hu that Gao Wei admires, he is shrewd and upright, in the past, in order to protect himself, he had to open up with the monks and wronged the snake, and suffered a lot of humiliation in order to survive until now. It seems that now he can't bear it anymore, and wants to get rid of the national thief Heshikai in one fell swoop!

"The minister impeached and opened the seven deadly sins! First, flattery and deception! Second, cultivate a large number of party henchmen and cause chaos to the dynasty! Third, he acted dissolutely, talked a lot after drinking, and was disrespectful to the first emperor! Fourth, accept bribes and sell official positions! Fifth, encroaching on people's land and causing the people of Yecheng to live in poverty! Sixth, privately cultivate dead soldiers, captive guests, and want to do wrong! Seventh, the harem was filthy, and he privately brought the people of the first emperor's palace into the palace to sleep! He deserves to be punished! Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to split the monks and destroy the three clans to set an example! ”

"Shhh The hall was full of the sound of inhaling cold air, and everyone looked at Feng Zicong, shocked in their hearts, this one is really too ruthless, and you were polite to the monk before? Just wait for this day to hold back the magnifying moves!

Gao Anahong and the henchmen of Heshikai couldn't sit still, others didn't know what Heshikai did, but they knew it very well in their hearts, that's all, or say less! There are far more evil things that monks have done, but ...... That's deadly enough!

If Heshikai falls, then what good will happen to those who are dependent on Heshikai? So Gao Yi was so anxious, and subconsciously looked at Gao Wei, hoping that Gao Wei would reprimand these impeachment and Shikai as usual. But he was destined to be disappointed, Gao Wei sat on the dragon chair, just quietly watching them arguing, not saying anything, not doing anything.

Gao Nahong suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, but he had already stood in line just now, and he couldn't turn back. So he stepped forward to question Feng Zicong and Hu Changren, and sneered: "The one on the left wants to impeach Lord Shizhong, and the other on the right also impeaches Lord Shizhong, I don't know if you have any evidence?" It is a capital crime to slander the important ministers of the court out of thin air! ”

His words were both questioning and threatening, calming down those who had been in chaos and the Shikai party. Yes, you impeached Hutchikai, but do you have any evidence? A small half of the officials of this Manchu Dynasty are our people, what are you going to fight with us?

Feng Zicong was silent, sneering in his heart, and when he wanted to buckle Feng Zicong's hat for slandering the minister, another person stood up. Gao Rui stepped forward with a thick book in his hand, bowed and saluted, suppressed the noise above the court, and said loudly: "The minister has a book, the minister Gao Rui, impeach the national thief and the soldier!" There is evidence to prove that what Feng Shangshu said is true! ”

As soon as Gao Wei raised his hand, he went down and presented the "evidence" in Gao Rui's hand.

Gao Rui turned his head, glanced at the lackeys of Heshikai, and said coldly: "If you want evidence, then, the old man will give you evidence!" ”
