Chapter 1091 1092 [The End of the Long Night]

The third day of June in the seventh year of Kaiping.

The almanac says, travel when it rains heavily.

After nightfall, the palace was brightly lit and the atmosphere was gloomy. The Forbidden Army coach Li Zi, who had not yet recovered from his injury, personally led his troops around.

In the outer hall of Xingqing Hall, a group of ministers sat in two rows, including six assistants including Mo Haoli, the governor on the left, Luo Ting, the governor on the right, Gu Liang, the military commander on the right, Xiao Jin, the commander of the garrison division, and Han Gongduan and Pei Yue, who participated in the affairs of the East Palace.

Among the political ministers, there were Huang Rentai, the royal censor, six ministers, Jian Rong, the eunuch of Shitan Temple, Su Wu, the Marquis of Nan'an, Chen Huan, the Marquis of Puding, and other important ministers.

The outstanding people of Daliang gathered together, and everyone's expressions were heavy and solemn.

The capital has been cleared, and all the rebels who resisted have been killed. The rebels who tried to hide and evade punishment have also been found. The soldiers in the West Camp and the South Camp outside the city were separately screened, and all the civil and military officials involved in the rebellion had their homes confiscated and their families exterminated.

, ordinary soldiers will be punished to varying degrees according to the rules drawn up by Pei Yue.

Heads and blood flowed all over the ground, but no one in the court interceded for him because this was conclusive evidence of regicide and rebellion.

Even the current situation has exceeded many people's expectations, because Emperor Kaiping did not go crazy before his death. Although he killed many people, he actually restrained himself a lot. This was naturally the advice of Pei Yue and Mo Haoli.

result.

As for the outcome of the two masterminds, Wang Pingzhang had been killed by Pei Yue. After the sixth prince Liu Zhi was identified, Emperor Kaiping gave him a three-foot white silk ribbon and ordered Xiao Jin and Chen Ancheng to monitor him. Liu Zhi hanged himself in the palace.

Now there are imperial troops and garrison divisions inside the city, and outside the city there are the northern camp of the Beijing Army, the Longbow Army and the elite cavalry of the Southern Army led by Chen Huan. In addition, the imperial court issued an imperial edict to inform the world of the story and outcome of Wang Pingzhang and the sixth prince Liu Zhi's rebellion.

The detailed explanation greatly alleviated the shock and panic caused by this rebellion.

I'm afraid Wang Pingzhang never imagined that the rebellion he had painstakingly planned for a long time was like summer rain, it came and went faster, it just caused ripples in the world, and then quickly disappeared without a trace.

Of course, part of the impact of this rebellion will not be apparent in a short period of time, and may only gradually reveal its ferocious minions as time goes by.

For these important ministers in the palace, each of them has been very hard during this period. Fortunately, Kyoto has returned to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, they are not in the mood to rejoice, especially when they received a summons from the palace this afternoon and all the important ministers were summoned.

When Xingqing Hall was summoned, the sadness and pain spread uncontrollably.

From the afternoon until late at night, they were waiting in the outer hall. Mo Haoli and the five auxiliary ministers except Pei Yue entered one after another, and each of them met with Emperor Kaiping for about a stick of incense.

However, Emperor Kaiping never summoned Pei Yue, which made other ministers quite surprised. However, they did not superficially think that Pei Yue was being treated coldly. Instead, they were vaguely aware that His Majesty the Emperor would most likely keep him until the last one.

Faced with the glances from around him, Pei Yue seemed unaware. He just stared in the direction leading to the dormitory in a daze.

…

In the sleeping hall, agarwood curls up.

Concubine Wu was lying beside the dragon's bed, holding Emperor Kaiping's skinny wrist with both hands, trying her best not to cry out, but her eyes were already red and swollen from crying.

Prince Liu Xian stood aside, looking at the middle-aged man lying on the dragon bed with sunken eyes and a pale face. He had to use all his strength to suppress the grief in his chest and not lose his composure in a hurry.

From the time he can remember, his father has been a majestic figure standing proudly between heaven and earth, and everyone in the court is in awe of him.

Even in those young and innocent years, he knew that Daliang was becoming stronger and stronger under the rule of his father, the people were living and working in peace and contentment, the government was gradually clearing up, and the national strength and military preparedness were increasing day by day. From the situation in which the three kingdoms were inseparable at the end of the Zhongzong Dynasty, to the fourth year of Kaiping

At the beginning, Daliang continuously inflicted heavy losses on Western Wu and Southern Zhou on the border, which was enough to prove the achievements of this extremely weak king on the dragon bed at this moment.

Even Pei Yue, who had made great military achievements, admitted that his ability to accomplish such a feat at a young age was inseparable from the court's logistical support and the bravery and prowess of the frontier troops.

Regardless of ancient or modern times, at home and abroad, the final battle in war is always about national strength.

Seventeen years is a long time, but a short time. Without Emperor Kaiping's hard work day and night, Daliang would never have had such a strong national power.

Such a king with both imperial scheming and political skills used the imperial physician's secret method of golden needles to maintain his energy after being seriously injured. He endured with great tenacity for seven days, and after repeatedly smoothing the situation in the court and the army, he finally left.

At the end of life.

"Father..." Liu Xian could hardly hold back his words as soon as he opened his mouth, his voice trembling and filled with tears.

Emperor Kaiping was already very weak. He had never been so weak in his life.

He looked at Liu Xian, who was tall and slightly stooped, smiled silently with difficulty, and then said: "Stand up straight, don't cry."

"Yes, Father." Liu Xian quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, then straightened his back and stood upright.

Emperor Kaiping coughed twice in pain and said slowly: "Mo Haoli's physical condition is not very good. He has been working very hard for the past two years. I told him that at least until you change the Yuan Dynasty, the government will be stable.

Begging for his bones. After he passes away, you must do your best to make him worthy of enjoying the Ancestral Temple."

Liu Xian bowed his head and responded: "My son, please keep this in mind."

Emperor Kaiping said again: "The adjustment in Dongfu does not have to wait until that time. After observing filial piety...ahem...after observing filial piety for twenty-seven days, you will promote Luo Jiyu to be the ruler of the left and Han Gongduan to be the ruler of the right. They are my followers.

The virtuous ministers who have been observing you since you ascended the throne are enough to support you in ruling the world. Remember, as long as these two people treat each other with sincerity, they can keep the court stable for you."

"Yes, father, I dare not or forget you." Liu Xian said in a trembling voice.

Emperor Kaiping rested for a moment and said slowly: "Gu Liang will not follow in Wang Pingzhang's footsteps, but you have to keep your eyes open and keep an eye on him. After two years, after Pei Yue enters the Xifu, he can let Gu Liang retire and return home. If you

I don’t know what to do, so I will ask your mother for instructions. At that time, Xiao Jin will be in charge of the left military aircraft, and Pei Yue will be in charge of the right military aircraft."

"Yes, Father."

"With these four people here, as long as you stick to your heart, work diligently and love the people, you will definitely be able to fulfill my long-cherished wish in the future. However, after you secure the throne, you must learn to promote some young talents like Wu Cunren. Only those who are loyal to you

With more and more, the authority of Tianjia will become more and more stable. Chen An’s

There is no need to doubt his loyalty, he can be promoted to the commander of Luan Yiwei. Over at Taishitai Pavilion, Jing Chu, the head of the Kun Department, can serve as You Lingdou. As for the position of Zuo Lingchen, let it be empty for the time being. Wait until one day you really have a capable person.

As long as his confidant is half as talented as Silent Cloud, he can hand over the pavilion to him."

Speaking of the word "Silent Cloud", Emperor Kaiping couldn't help but reveal a bit of sadness in his eyes.

He tried his best to suppress the emotion in his heart, looked at Liu Xian and said, "Xian'er."

Liu Xian was stunned, and then his tears surged like floods that washed away the dam. He suddenly knelt on the ground and cried: "Father, I don't want to be the emperor. I hope you live in good health. I am willing to live forever." To be a prince, a father..."

Concubine Wu was also in mourning.

Emperor Kaiping sighed softly: "Silly boy, if you really wait until that day, you will definitely become murderous towards me like Liu Zan and Liu Zhi did."

Liu Xian shook his head desperately and broke down in tears.

Emperor Kaiping vigorously raised his hand and waved it, and continued: "I have been struggling for seventeen years. In fact, this is a last resort. Your mother knows the reason why. You can let her tell you in her spare time. But You are different, you don’t need to work as hard as me, you just need to remember one sentence firmly."

Liu Xian wiped his tears and said, "Father, please show me."

Emperor Kaiping said: "If the prohibition is better than the body, then the order will be carried out by the people. If the order comes from above, then the world will have order."

Liu Xian nodded vigorously and said: "My father's teachings, my sons and ministers will always keep them in mind."

Emperor Kaiping breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to look at the noble man in palace attire beside the couch, with an extremely rare tenderness and guilt in his eyes.
