Chapter Eighty-Four: Marriage, Blood
When Chen Yi had finished thanking Yun Dingxing and exited the side hall, Yang Guang suddenly asked the demure and elegant Yuan Guiren beside him who had never said a word: "Ziyan, what do you think of this golden cicada?"
Yuan Guiren smiled, as beautiful as the flower of spring dawn: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, the concubine has been observing this son for a long time, but the result is the word 'can't see through'." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Yang Guang was surprised: "Ziyan, you have always looked up at the stars and looked down at popularity, how can you not see through a golden cicada." ”
Yuan Guiren replied: "Your Majesty doesn't know something, the breath of people is from the heart and the shape is outside, reflecting the number of lives in the heart, and you can know people by looking at it." But this golden cicada doesn't know what secret method he has cultivated, and all his breath is constricted and in his body, without a trace of leakage, and the concubine has no gas to look forward to, so he can't see through it. ”
"I see," Yang Guang nodded, "So this golden cicada is really a strange person." ”
Empress Xiao asked: "Why did Your Majesty agree to give Jin Chanzi a marriage, and did you allow Miss Li and Miss An to him at the same time? ”
Yang Guang snorted coldly: "I don't know how many things I have done to attract criticism, and this one is not bad." As for Li Yuan, what if he is dissatisfied, how can I sit back and watch him use his daughter to marry into a family to expand his power?"
Xiao Shi also said: "Your Majesty wants to restrain the Li family and try to destroy his marriage with the Chai family immediately, so why should he give him the golden cicada as his son-in-law?
Yang Guang shook his head and smiled: "Zitong is too simple. This marriage not only disgraced the Li family, but also damaged the alliance between the Chai and Li families, and Li Yuan must be very resentful in his heart. But he didn't dare to vent to me, who do you think this anger will fall on?"
Xiao Shi suddenly said: "Your Majesty is talking about the golden cicada?"
Yang Guang clapped his hands and smiled: "Exactly." When his son-in-law is not compatible, I will entrap the golden cicada more, which is equivalent to planting a nail in the Li family. If Li Yuan is honest, if he dares to have different aspirations, the golden cicada will be my sword to eliminate rebellion!"
Xiao and Yuan Guiren praised "My Emperor Shengming" together, Yang Guang was very proud, and was about to take Ermei back to the palace to enjoy himself, when a report suddenly spread outside the palace that Xu Guo Gongyu asked to see him.
Although Yang Guang was slightly impatient, firstly, the rebellion was settled, and everything was undecided, so he was afraid that there was something urgent, and secondly, Yuwenshu was his confidant, so it was not easy to turn him away, so he had to issue an order to pass it on.
Not long after, Yuwen Shu entered the palace to see the driver.
After his salute was finished, Yang Guangdong asked, "I don't know why Aiqing wants to come to see me?"
Yuwen Shu said: "Wei Chen is here, and there is only one thing to ask His Majesty for the Holy Judgment. Although Yang Xuangan has been conferred the head, the rest of the party is still in the crowd, and I don't know what to do?"
Just this sentence aroused the monstrous hatred and murderous intent in Yang Guang's heart. This time, he went to Goryeo for the second time to save the face he had lost before, and just as he saw with his own eyes that Liaodong City was about to be captured, he failed due to Yang Xuangan's rebellion, making himself a laughing stock of the world. Although he had just returned to Luoyang, he had made a decision to kill Yang Xuangan's corpse and abandon the city, but he was always sullen and never really vented.
"Xuangan is just a horseman, why not climb high and call out and obey the 100,000 rebels!"
Word by word was like cold ice spit out of Yang Guang's mouth: "This incident made me know that people in the world don't want more, and if they get together, they will steal their ears." If you don't add punishment, how can you punish you!"
The Xiao family and the Yuan family on the side were all shocked, like a flower and jade, and their blood color faded, but when they saw the fierce murderous aura on Yang Guang's face, they didn't dare to say a word of persuasion.
Yuwen Shu, who was standing with his head bowed below, heard this, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, but his face trembled, and asked tentatively: "What does Your Majesty mean ......?"
Yang Guang coldly said the last sentence of the day: "There is no forgiveness for killing!"
Besides, after Yun Dingxing and Chen Yi left the palace, Chen Yi first thanked Yun Dingxing for his adult beauty, and then said that he would have a generous gift and then offer it.
Yun Dingxing always knew that Chen Yi's magnanimity was magnanimous, and he immediately burst into joy, and promised that he would personally pay attention to the marriage and try to ensure that there would be no twists and turns in this matter.
With the attention of Yun Dingxing, the newly promoted lord and famous general, things are going smoothly and quickly.
Within a few days, the DPRK and China issued three holy decrees.
One of the holy decrees was sent to the house of the "Golden Cicada", and the decree made it clear that because the Golden Cicada had made great contributions in the counterinsurgency battle, he was specially promoted to the captain of the fruit, rewarded with 100 taels of gold and 100 horses of brocade, and gave the daughter of Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang and the daughter of Luoyang, An, the same golden cicada as his wife.
The other two holy decrees, one was sent to An Muhua's mansion, and the other was sent to Li Yuan's mansion by the messenger Pegasus.
Originally, the daughter of the prince and the daughter of the merchant were allowed to be the same person, and the marriage given by the emperor was quite a bit nonsense, if it was ordinary, it would definitely provoke a lot of discussion among the government and the opposition, and there would be some defenders to persuade the emperor to withdraw his life. But then something happened that silenced everyone, and they did not dare to question the emperor's will in the slightest.
The reward for the golden cicada is the end of the reward for the meritorious heroes in the counterinsurgency, and the next step is to investigate the traitor remnants.
In August, the emperor ordered Zheng Shanguo, the secretary of Dali, Pei Yun, the imperial historian, Guyi, the servant of the Criminal Department, and Fan Zigai, who stayed behind, to try and deal with Yang Xuangan's accomplices. These four people are either good at observing words and feelings, and understanding the intentions, or they are as evil as hatred and have a strict temperament, and under a case, more than 30,000 people were condemned as rebels against the party, and they were all cut down on the banks of Luoshui, making the entire Luoshui red within three days.
Yu Wenshu also said to Yang Guang that when Yang Xuangan was besieging the eastern capital, he had opened several large granaries nearby to help the people, and many of the people in the vicinity received relief and sang praises of his blessings.
Yang Guang was furious and issued an edict again, ordering the arrest of all the people who received the relief and killing them all in the south of Luoyang City.
For a time, even in broad daylight in the southern suburbs of Luoyang, the four fields could hear the chirping ghosts, and pedestrians were forbidden, just like a desperate desert.
A few days later, a small earthquake occurred near Luoyang City, although it did not cause many casualties, but many people said conclusively that they saw a red Lian flying out of Luoshui at the time of the earthquake, and a black light flew up from the south of the city, and disappeared after a few turns in the air. In private, they all thought that the emperor's killing karma was too heavy this time, which caused the heavens to hang down the alarm, and everyone was panicked.
Chen Yi also saw the red practice and black light at that time, and felt an endless fierce aura from it. By the time he rushed to observe, Chi Lian and the black light had disappeared, and there was nothing unusual left at the scene.
He felt a little uneasy in his heart, and he always felt as if something big was about to happen. It's a pity that he is now the identity of the golden cicada, and that Master Xuanzang has already retired to travel the world, but it is inconvenient to return to the Pure Land Sect to ask Master Daoxin for advice.
