The emperor's sharp gaze swept around everyone's faces and landed on Zeng Biao's corpse.

"Zeng Biao, the commander of the forbidden army, killed the monarch and rebelled, punished the nine clans, and his body was hung on the wall of Xuanwumen, and the corpse was exposed for seven days to set an example!"

"Anyone who participates in the rebellion and does not want to repent will be divided into five horses and three tribes!"

"Those who do not know the truth and participate will be executed at noon, and the heads will be displayed to the public!"

"As for you!" The emperor closed his eyes, and even his breath trembled slightly.

This is his first son, he still remembers the joy of becoming a father for the first time, even now, this son has become unrecognizable, even if he was so presumptuous and unscrupulous just now, he almost took his own life, that is the first son he has high hopes for!

Feeling the deep sorrow emanating from the emperor, Yu Wenyu mistakenly thought that he still had a play.

"Father, it was the son who was confused, the son listened to the instigation of others, and the son was confused for a while, so he committed such an unforgivable sin!" Without the high spirit just now, Yu Wenyu begged for mercy with a handful of snot and tears.

The fingernails clenched in the emperor's sleeves dug into his palms, and blood flowed down his fingers, dripping to the ground.

"If you keep being stubborn, I'll think you're not completely incorrigible!"

Yu Wenyu suddenly changed color, wriggled to the emperor's feet like a silkworm chrysalis, and pleaded: "Father, I know it's wrong!" You can't give up on me, I'm your first son, I'm your eldest son! ”

The last ray of light in the emperor's heart was extinguished, he opened his eyes and looked at the eldest son on the ground fixedly, and took a deep breath, "The eldest prince Yu Wenyu, plotting against the king, the crime is unforgivable, his crime should be punished, read his ......"

Unable to say any more, he exhaled heavily and continued: "From now on, I will be confined to the Zongren Mansion, and I will never take another step!" ”

This is the last mercy of being a father.

"Xiao Wenjun, he has meritorious service in escorting, and he has been promoted to the second-grade county lord, and he will be given a hundred taels of gold! Disobedience to the royal face, the past is not to blame! ”

"Wang Jiuyuan, the escort is meritorious, and he is promoted to the commander of the Sanpin Gongwei Division, and he will be given a hundred taels of gold!"

"Yu Wenyao, loyal and commendable, promoted to the prince of Zhengyipin, titled, and given a hundred taels of gold!"

Yu Wenyao finally waited for this moment, and it was not in vain that he had worked hard for many years, and he thought that the biggest winner this time would be the fifth prince, but he was really overwhelmed and missed such a great opportunity in vain.

After this incident, the Kyoto court is only afraid that it will be chaotic for a while, which will also be greatly beneficial to themselves, at least their position, will move, they only need to control it a little, and their strength will be greatly improved.

I am a big step closer to the throne!

"Where is Sun Zheng?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Commander Sun was seriously injured and unconscious, and the imperial doctor was in the camp to see a doctor."

"Sun Zheng, loyal to the Lord, brave and good at fighting, Fengdu County, his wife is awarded the five grades, and the gold is one hundred taels!"

Although it is only a county title, in today's Daqi, it can set off a storm that is not big or small. For nearly 100 years, successive emperors have done the same thing, which is to use various reasons to withdraw their titles.

The Xiao family in front is a very good example, first the title is suspended, then the rank is downgraded to the county duke, the difference between cloud and mud, and finally it is obvious that the title is to be withdrawn.

Therefore, when His Majesty issued two holy decrees in a row, those nobles in Kyoto were so anxious that they didn't want to become the next Xiao family.

As if he had completed his task, the emperor issued one after another instructions, and after doing this, he waved his hand and signaled everyone to retreat, and Gonggong An, who was waiting for him, was also driven out.

The tent was immediately deserted, and he sat back in his chair, and in an instant he was much older, and his sharp eyes were a little cloudy. At this moment, he is more like the lonely man who has been betrayed by everyone, proud and sad.

When people reach their twilight years, they always like to look back on the past, and they also experienced the battle for succession, and their son is just following his own old path.

He always thinks that everything is under control, even if there is some competition and dumping, it is a necessary test to become an emperor, and he can't be killed from this bloody road, even if he ascends the throne, he will be dragged down by ambitious and capable people, and he will be crushed to pieces.

The eldest son's forced palace sounded the alarm for him, the sky will not die, I am a big Qi, if I still turn a blind eye like this, Yuwen's country will be played by these rebels sooner or later!

Thinking of this, the emperor calmed down, and his cloudy eyes returned to clarity.

The third child let himself look at it differently this time, which can be useful.

The old four are decent, do not compete for the first place in everything, and the golden mean remains to be investigated.

Old five, hum! It is also very impressive, usually virtuous and benevolent, but at the critical moment, he is greedy for life and afraid of death, and has no responsibility, but he is afraid that he has fled to Kyoto now!

……

After a few days of rest, except for those soldiers who were seriously injured and could not move, everyone embarked on the road back to Beijing.

The same road, when I came, I was full of energy, but when I returned, I was in a heavy mood.

In a mansion in the west of Kyoto City, it is the mansion of Xiao Erye, the second room of the Xiao family, they were originally the dark line of the eldest prince's faction, but now the eldest prince's rebellion has not succeeded, but he has ended up in a trap and forbidden Zongren Mansion, and many officials have been implicated.

The second lady of the Xiao family was anxious at this time, walking around her husband, and said with a heavy heart: "Master, although the concubine is a woman, she also knows that the mansion has a close relationship with the eldest prince in private......"

"It's okay!" Although Second Master Xiao was bored, a chill kept coming from all directions: "Is this a change of sky today, is it really so cold?" ”

"Master, take care of yourself!" The second lady didn't know that the "changing sky" that Second Master Xiao was referring to was not cold, but cold.

But he couldn't help but continue to ask: "Now, many officials around the eldest prince have been exiled from their homes, and the concubine has just heard from the market that Yang Shilang of the Ministry of Rites has also been taken away by the officials......"

"Impossible! Impossible! When Second Master Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but tremble, this Yang Shilang was hiding deeper than himself, his own family was fine, and it was impossible to get Yang Shilang's turn.

What's more, Yang Shilang is familiar with himself, once he falls into the hands of Gong Weisi's group of murderous and non-spitting out bones, he will inevitably pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and the possibility of his confession will be infinitely magnified.

"Old, sir! Big things are wrong! The butler stumbled in, looked sideways at the second lady on the side, and stopped talking.

"Steward Qi! If you have something to say, when has this been, is there anything you can't let me know? The second lady's eyebrows trembled slightly, and she said angrily.

"This ......" Steward Qi looked at Second Master Xiao with some embarrassment.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Second Master Xiao knows that Steward Qi pays attention to proportions in everything, and what cannot be said will never be spoken.

"The little one saw with his own eyes, that Yang Shilang's family was taken away by the people of the Gong Wei Division, and the person headed by the Gong Wei Division is the new commander of the Tongzhi Wang Jiuyuan!"

"Ahh ......" The second lady heard this, let out a long sigh, and fell straight to the ground.
