Losing a father in early life, losing a husband in middle age, and losing a son in old age are the three saddest things in life.
Of course, this is for women.
For men, losing a wife in middle age is not a sad thing.
Especially for a philandering man, losing his wife in middle age may be a happy event!
Because, I can legitimately marry a young and beautiful woman again!
Gao Jiong is naturally not middle-aged. He is nearly sixty years old. In the Sui Dynasty, when life expectancy was generally not very long, he was already a real old man at this age!
At this time, my wife died, and old man Gao Jiong was almost so happy that he beat gongs, drums, and set off firecrackers to celebrate!
But on the surface, the old man Gao Jiong still pretended to be calm, no, his face was full of sadness.
Hearing that Master Zuo Pushe had died, Yang Jian, who was the emperor, said, I am very sad, but Gao Aiqing is still strong and strong. When she has physiological needs, I will make the decision and provide you with a mistress at my official expense. How about it?
Gao Jiong is such a smart man. As soon as he heard this, he stopped working!
Having a mistress at public expense sounds good, but who knows if this mistress is a spy sent by you!
In that case, shouldn't I have to be more cautious when having sex with my mistress? If that's the case, I'm afraid that within two months, I'll be really wilted!
So Gao Jong lied to Yang Jian and said, I have a single-minded relationship with my wife, and I have vowed to never love anyone other than each other. Besides, I have been inhumane for many years, and I have long since lost that ability. .Now when I get home from get off work every day, I can only eat fast, chant Buddha's name, and recite sutras for my dead wife!
When Yang Jian heard this, he was very disappointed, but he couldn't forcefully assign the mistress quota, so he had to give up.
But although Old Man Gao said it sounded nice, in fact, he would find a concubine to have sex with every day when he came home.
I don’t know whether it was luck or misfortune, but within half a year, Old Man Gao made an old tree bloom and made one of his concubines pregnant!
No, I gave birth to a big fat boy a few days ago!
Now, when Dugu Jialuo mentioned the past, Yang Jian remembered the lie that Old Man Gao had told, and couldn't help but said angrily, "This is unreasonable! How dare an old man deceive you!"
Lying to the emperor is not cheating the emperor!
You said that you are weak and can't do that for a long time. What do you think about your son now? Seeing that your Prime Minister's Mansion is beating gongs and drums and setting off firecrackers, it is obvious that they are not celebrating your old man Gao being cuckolded?
Then you are cheating!
Then, Yang Jian began to think about it. This was a trivial matter. Why did he, Old Man Gao, want to deceive the emperor on this matter? Could it be that their family had some shady activities?
Moreover, how many of the major military and national events in the past were deceived by Old Man Gou?
Although there is no real evidence, Yang Jian's heart has been planted with such a thorn in his heart!
As befits Old Man Gao's bad luck, within a few days Wang Shiji, the general manager of Liangzhou, was accused of treason.
Speaking of this Wang Shiji, he was so unlucky that his teeth were clogged even after drinking cold water, and his heels collapsed when he farted!
Because he met a villain!
Wang Shiji had a close confidant named Huangfu Xiaoxie. One day, Huangfu Xiaoxie was wanted for committing a crime, so he went to Wang Shiji. When Wang Shiji saw that this boy was not kind, he confiscated him. Huangfu Xiaoxie had no choice but to
Keep running.
Until one day when he was caught and sent to the Southwest to guard the frontier, Huangfu Xiaoxie began to hate Wang Shiji, the manager of Liangzhou who refused to take him in.
Then Huangfu Xiaoxie spread a rumor that Wang Shiji had asked people to read the faces of him and his wife, and the fortune teller said they were the faces of the emperor and the queen. He also spread the rumor that Wang Shiji's cronies told him that the elite soldiers coming out of Hexi were the right ones.
Suitable for rebellion. Wang Shiji replied that the population is small and the foundation is insufficient!…
Originally, Huangfu Xiaoxie was spreading rumors in the southwestern frontier just to have fun with his words. Even if he could not kill Wang Shiji by scolding him, he never thought about what he could do to Wang Shiji.
But it happened that these words fell into the ears of the censor.
The so-called censors are a group of guys who are full of food and have nothing to do, and their profession is to leave people in bad shape.
After hearing this, the censor asked people to search according to the map, and found Huangfu Xiaoxie's head, and took him to the capital for interrogation.
Although it was a rumor, at this moment, Huangfu Xiaoxie didn't dare to admit it! So he had no choice but to continue making it up.
Now the matter became serious. When the censors put the arch on Yang Jian's desk, it became like this: "General Yuan Min of the left guard, General Yuan Zhou of the right guard, Zuo Pu shot Gao Jiong, and they were with the world.
I accumulate traffic and receive gifts from his famous horses."
When Yang Jian saw this, he became furious, so with a wave of his hand, he killed the poor Liangzhou governor Wang Shiji. General Yuan Min of the left guard and Yuan Zhou, the general of the right guard, were both dismissed from their official positions.
The old man Gao Jiong was also removed from the official position of Zuopushe and the title of Shangzhu Kingdom.
But Old Man Goriot was very open-minded, and he did not feel any resentment because of this. Instead, he thought like this: "If you are dismissed from office, you will be dismissed from office. Anyway, you will not lose your head!"
"And it's not like we are all exempted. Don't we still have the title of Marshal Chang Shi and Duke of Qi? Although Zuo Pushe is a very popular minister, he has too many things to do and is really tiring. We are old again, so it's not appropriate.
!The salary of the Shangzhu Kingdom is not particularly large, and there are so many Zhu states in the Sui Dynasty. It is really not a title worth showing off, just lose it!"
Old Man Gao's idea was indeed good, but the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind kept coming!
Within a few days, the person who made matters worse came again!
This time, the person who caused the trouble was the state order of the old man Gao Jiong (the order of the state of Qi in the area where the Duke of Qi belongs to, the seventh rank, roughly equivalent to the county magistrate) wrote a letter to expose the old man Gao Jiong, saying: "His son Biao Ren said to Jiong: 'Sima Zhong
Da Chu asked for his illness and refused to go to court, so he had the world. Now that I have encountered this, how can I know that it is not a blessing?'"
Yang Jian was furious when he heard this and had Old Man Gao arrested and interrogated severely.
Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, old man Yang Su naturally refused to let it go. He took the opportunity to let his followers fan the flames, saying that old man Gao had always disrespected the emperor and was suspected of rebellion. He once asked a fortune teller to curse your majesty to die early! He also said that your majesty, you
Being alive is not good for him as the prime minister, so he is looking for someone to extend his life, rob your majesty of your luck, and so on.
In particular, during this year's expedition to the Turks, old man Gao Qiu was still running around with his troops. He obviously had enough troops, but he still asked the central government for troops. I don't know what kind of conspiracy this old man had made, and so on.
Many of these things have no real evidence, but the incident during the conquest of the Turks was indeed true. Yang Jian also had doubts at the time, but later Gao Jiong returned in triumph, and Yang Jian put the matter aside.
Go down.
At this time, Queen Dugujialuo, who was qualified to make the final decision, finally spoke.
Dugu Jialuo did not slander, but mentioned an old incident to Yang Jian.
Years ago, King Gaoyuan of Goguryeo launched an army to attack the Sui Dynasty. Although he was beaten back by Wei Chong, the general manager of Yingzhou, Emperor Wen Yang Jian was still very angry and felt that his power was offended, so he planned to send troops to defeat Goguryeo.
But at this time, Gao Jiong jumped out to object, saying that the Sui Dynasty was a country of benevolence and righteousness, and it should convince people with virtue. It would be unlucky to rush into the army rashly, and so on.
The furious Yang Jian refused to listen and had to send troops to attack Goguryeo.
As a result, on the way, the army was plagued by plague, and the navy was almost wiped out by storms.
After talking about this matter, Dugu Jialuo gave an ambiguous conclusion, that is: This matter seems a bit strange!
Yang Jian thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was really the case!
If someone hadn't been causing trouble secretly, it was probably Old Man Gao's crow's mouth who had done it!
With so many new charges, old man Yang Jian was completely angry. In a fit of rage, he had old man Gao Jian pulled out and chopped!
