Fifteenth, Chang Dynasty!

Gao Zhaogong stood up as leader of the class. Big beads of sweat rolled down his forehead and dripped into his collar. In a short time, most of his crimson official uniform was soaked through.

"Establishing a prince and killing the mother" is an ancestral system established by Emperor Daowu, the founding emperor of the Wei Dynasty. It is a major event involving the stability of the country and the importance of its foundation. When His Majesty and Gao Zhao first discussed this matter, everyone felt that it was extremely difficult.

I'm afraid it won't be any easier than cleaning up Buddhist affairs.

According to common sense, as long as someone proposes a proposal, there will be a huge commotion in the court. What is strange is that there are two systems of civil and military, nine-grade and eighteen-grade thirty-six classes, and there are more than 600 court officials in the palace. Not to mention objections, there are actually

Not even half of the officials raised any questions?

The clan was nothing more than that. It had already been governed obediently by the emperor. Even if it was unwilling in its heart, it would never dare to come forward. But among the Han officials who regard the Four Canons and the Five Classics as the foundation of their world, no one came to dissuade them?

Liu Fang, as Taichang Qing, is responsible for the world's etiquette and ancestral temple sacrifices; Cui Guang, as the sacrificial wine, is in charge of the classics and principles, and teaches the world; Wang Xian, as the censor's lieutenant, is responsible for enforcing laws and regulations, observing words and corrections. Both of them should be opposed, and even more so.

They all went out to advise the emperor. Unexpectedly, as soon as Yuan Yi made the presentation, it was these three people who were the first to second the proposal?

Even Yuan Yong, who always followed the emperor's lead and was smarter than anyone else in flattering His Majesty, was actually a beat slower?

At this point, how could Gao Zhao still not see that before the start of the dynasty, the emperor had already had an affair with these people. And he did not know what method he used, but he actually forced all the ministers to agree unanimously without any doubts?

What’s even more weird is that I have become a Sikong and a civil servant, but I haven’t even heard a trace?

The emperor was clearly on guard against himself...

Why is this, and why is it necessary?

Thinking about the seriously injured empress, the seven-day palace ban, and Wang Xian and other close ministers who had also been banned from the palace for seven days, Gao Zhao's heart became tighter and tighter.

It must be one of the concubines in the palace who is pregnant. If nothing else, the fetus is likely to be a boy...

Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am your uncle. As long as you issue an imperial edict, even if it means killing me, I will never frown. Why do you need to be so raw and unfeeling?

It seemed like he had been thrown into an ice cave for thirty-nine days, but in an instant, Gao Zhao was chilled from head to toe.

It wasn't until he heard General Jin Wu singing "If you have something to report, if nothing happens, you will retreat from the court", Gao Zhao felt as if he had woken up from a nightmare, and he was shocked.

The emperor nodded with satisfaction. When he stood up, he said to Gao Zhao: "If you have something to discuss with Sikong, come with me!"

"I obey the decree!"

It seems that the emperor is not ready to take action on himself immediately...

Gao Zhao felt relieved and followed quickly.

All the court officials were stunned.

Especially someone like Yu Zhong, who is in the same boat as Gao Zhao. I thought that even if His Majesty today would not dismiss Gao Zhao and seize the title, I am afraid he would treat Gao Zhao as nothing. He would also gradually become indifferent and wait for some time.

Looking for some excuses, dismissal, investigation, house raids...

But who would have thought that the emperor would be like before, summoning Gao Zhao as soon as the court was over...

This is clearly a sign of trust and loyalty, of being favored and not mourning?

For these days, the emperor has been on guard in the palace, cutting off the inside and outside, and under house arrest for important ministers who were close to Gao Zhao to prevent leaks... and so on, if it is not Gao Zhao who is being guarded against, then who is it?

Could it be that he was acting or just having fun?

The expressions of those who reacted faster have changed.

Yuan Yong trembled violently, as if he couldn't stand still.

Cui Guang's face turned pale, and all of his blood was gone in an instant.

Liu Fang was even more anxious and rushed straight towards the preface gate, seemingly trying to chase Gao Zhao out.

But as soon as he reached the palace steps, he heard Liu Teng's command: "Stop!"

Immediately, several Jinwu generals pressed forward and pushed Liu Fang back like a wall.

The old man was already thin, so he almost fell over after being hit like this. Fortunately, Cui Guangyan quickly gave him a hand.

Knowing that these two people must have reacted, Liu Teng sighed sadly and advised in a gentle voice: "You two, go back! His Majesty said: No one will be seen today..."

Liu Fang's eyes were about to burst: "Your Majesty...are you crazy?"

Just when the strong man was about to scold him, Liu Teng glared at him, saying, "Don't bother me." Just pretend you didn't hear him.

Then he turned around and winked at Cui Guang, which meant that His Majesty had made up his mind, it was useless!

Yes, if it was useful, His Majesty would have listened to the advice a long time ago. Why did he actually have his mind set on a small official like Li Chengzhi a few days ago?

I accidentally fell into His Majesty’s trap?

Cui Guang secretly felt resentment, pulled Liu Fang hard, and whispered: "Let's go first!"

"Gao Shouwen, Gao Shouwen, don't be confused..."

Seeing the two old ministers with their hunched bodies and indescribable desolation from their backs. Looking at Yuan Yong's face full of fear and his legs weak from fear, Yuan Yi was completely surprised. He thought that the emperor still had great favor for Gao Zhao.

Wow, why did you scare these people into looking like this?

Moving forward, Yuan Yi asked in a low voice: "Uncle Huang, what happened?"

Yuan Yong was so angry and anxious that he gritted his teeth in hatred: "You have been tricked by the emperor!"

Who would have thought that the emperor made so many arrangements not to guard against Gao Zhao, but to force Gao Zhao to commit a crime?

It's right to think about it. Gao Zhao is in the capital, and most of the military power is in the hands of the Yuan clan. Not only is it just changing the ancestral system, but even if Gao Zhao's family is about to be raided, the emperor doesn't need to be so cautious?

It turned out that it was all done for Gao Zhao...

Fooled by the emperor?

Yuan Yi is still confused.

Yuan Yong glanced around and saw that Yu Zhong and Yuan Yi were the only ones around him, so he raised his palms and placed them on his chest quickly and lightly.

Destroy the Buddha?

Yuanyun’s scalp felt numb!

The entire Xianbei clan believes in Buddhism and is very familiar with such gestures. In addition, these three days, the three of them are most aware of the arrangements made by the emperor, and it seems that everything is directed towards Gao Zhao. It feels like today's court, the emperor

They will seize the Gao family and exterminate the whole family.

But in the end, what was it like before and what it is like now?

At this time, when the two sides were combined, it was hard to see that the emperor actually took the opportunity to change the ancestral system, united with the ministers, and performed a show for Gao Zhao of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger:

You see, I am going to have a son and will establish a prince soon.

Now that the ancestral system has been changed, the prince’s biological mother no longer has to die, so where should Queen Gao Ying go?

What about you, Gao Zhao?

Maybe when the prince was born, the queen was deposed and the Gao family declined!

Therefore, continue to resume your old business, dare to be the first for the world, and help me clean up the Buddhist affairs...

Gao Zhaoming knew that drinking poison would quench his thirst, but in order to live a few more days, or to gain time to arrange his escape in advance, he might agree...

Just like Yuan Yong, Yuan Yi's legs became weak and he broke into a cold sweat: What's the point of changing the ancestral system?

Things like the Buddhist banquet are the kind of disaster that shakes the foundation of a country and will most likely lead to chaos in the world.

Yu Zhong argued loudly and asked: "What should we do?"

Yuan Yong gritted his teeth: "Now I just ask for God's blessing, hope that Shouwen will take care of the overall situation, and don't make any mistakes..."

Is it possible?

Yu Zhong is very suspicious.

The emperor's skill was too high, and he manipulated all the ministers into applause, and even kept Gao Zhao in the dark. Moreover, he launched it very suddenly.

Gao Zhao only thought that today was his final day. Even if he was still alive, he would most likely not dare to disobey...

……

Shiqianxi Hall.

Gao Zhao was sweating profusely, and his whole body was already soaked. He knocked his head down one after another, and the blue brick floor was hit with a "dong dong" sound, like a drum.

Within a few moments, blood was already visible on the forehead, and the ground was dyed red in large areas.

The emperor's face was black and green, and he was gritting his teeth fiercely. His fists were clenched tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, as if he could no longer bear it and was about to violently kill.

Yuan Ke couldn't figure it out. It was obviously a sure thing, but Gao Zhao shouldn't do it?

He is not afraid. I will use my plan to uproot the Gao family?

Normally, whenever I meet Gao Zhao, he will always be Yuan Ke, who has a pleasant appearance and a soft-spoken voice. However, today I see how displeased Gao Zhao is, and I wish I could give him a few blows.

After enduring it for a long time, the emperor finally didn't get angry and just shouted coldly: "Stop!"

It is impossible to kill for real.

If Gao Zhao dies, who will help me check and balance the clan?

Let’s use it first...

Gao Zhao stopped suddenly, still not daring to raise his head. He put his hands on the ground and pressed his forehead against the blue brick, and blood seeped into the stone surface drop by drop.
To be continued...
