Chapter 224: Fishing in troubled waters, pawns are in chaos


It goes without saying that he was referring to Gao Cheng's rebellion.It is also one of the three major cases of the Yuanwu Dynasty, and the twists and turns of this case shocked the world and made the Northern Tang Dynasty set off earth-shaking waves.King Xiang Gao Cheng is known for his benevolence and virtue, and his reputation is all over the world, and he is praised as a generation of virtuous kings, and he was highly supported by the Northern Tang Dynasty scholars at that time.However, on the night seven years ago, King Xiang himself was ordered to go out on patrol and was not in Chang'an, but the guards and doormen in his palace suddenly got into trouble and wanted to take advantage of the unpreparedness of the forbidden army guarding the city, sneak attack and break into the palace, kill the king and usurp the throne.For some reason, their rebellion went unusually smoothly, all the way to the ground, and even a few strong men broke through the encirclement, and even killed Taizu Gao Jue, stabbing him into serious injuries The case caused an uproar in the whole country.No one thought that the virtuous King Xiang would commit such a great rebellion, let alone imagine that with the powerful combat power of the Imperial City Forbidden Army, it would be defeated by a group of dead soldiers in the palace, thus injuring Emperor Taizu.The rebellion was quickly quelled, but Taizu was seriously injured and was unconscious for several days, hovering on the brink of life and death.However, there is no prince of the East Palace to temporarily manage the government, and the country has not yet been established, and people are panicked for a while.At the critical moment, Empress Wu Qingyi stood up.With the support of some courtiers, she acted vigorously and resolutely, quickly issued several orders, while sending people to capture King Xiang back to Chang'an, and beheaded all the doors, while strongly washing all the protégés and former officials of King Xiang with blood, cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.Under her thunderous wrist, the court situation quickly returned to stability, and all traces related to King Xiang were erased cleanly.However, although Taizu woke up, he was left with a fatal illness and was bedridden ever since.A few months later, he returned to heaven and died, unable to deal with the mess of the Northern Tang Dynasty behind him.It can be said that it was the confusing case of King Xiang's rebellion that completely changed the national fortunes of the Northern Tang Dynasty.Tonight, Ren Zhen mentioned this old case, and the sentence "There is more than one unjustly dead soul" obviously contains deep meaning.Gu Haitang heard the sound outside the strings, and said in shock: "You mean, the case of King Xiang was also secretly planned by her" Ren Zhen said quietly: "If you want to defeat your opponent, you have to know everything about her."

The reason why she was able to ascend the throne and become the emperor was, in the final analysis, because this case cost Taizu's life.You say, can I not check" Gu Haitang was shocked and speechless when he heard this.There are rumors about this possibility he said, and many people have speculated about it.However, they are limited to speculation, pure pastime, and there is no way to verify.When the sky falls, there are tall people staring, as long as ordinary people live a stable life, who cares which family it is the emperor's turn to do.Ren is really different.As the owner of the embroidery shop, it is not too difficult for him to investigate this case in the light of his position.If you want to hit the empress's weakness, this can be a big breakthrough.Moreover, King Xiang and Ren Tianxing had a very close relationship in his early years, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no intersection and overlap between the two cases, and Ren Zhenzhen should investigate it clearly.Since he said so, it seems that Gao Cheng was really wronged.This case is directed at her throne and is the biggest rebellion in her heart.Mingjing hangs high, as soon as these four words come out, her nerves are stabbed, and she will be afraid that the old royal family will use the topic to play and reveal the truth.In this way, we are relatively safe. ”This time he came to Chang'an to take revenge, and there were many conspirators to be killed, which was bound to cause a violent sensation, which would be very risky.If only the culprit of Ren Tianxing's case is killed, on the one hand, the target is too obvious, and those who have not yet been killed will deploy close guards, making the assassination more difficult, and on the other hand, Ren Zhen is worried that his arrival will be guessed."

There's one thing I've been worried about.Since that woman secretly leaked to you, Ren Tianxing's child is in Jinling, luring you south, it means that she knows the existence of me, and may even know that I am the owner of the embroidery shop. ”Gu Haitang nodded, "Not bad."

When you say that, I understand what you mean.If it was only for the target of the general's case, she might guess that the owner of the fang, who was hand-eyed, was coming. ”"So, we have to mix the two cases together and make the water in Chang'an muddy, so that we can fish from it.I bet it's not me she's more afraid of, it's the Gao family who has been hiding for years.Heaven is clear, the mirror is hanging high, can you not be afraid" Gu Haitang thought for a moment and said: "Have you ever thought about how she will deal with it" Ren Zhen shook his head, "There is no need to think about it, because the initiative is in my hands."

Next time we come out to kill someone, write a confession.In this way, every time a person is killed, the truth of King Xiang's case will be revealed. ”The confession was written in advance, but outsiders did not know about it, and only thought that it was confessed by those people before they died, and the content was true and correct."

She'll be scared that we'll continue to kill and let the truth gradually surface.""

Yes, when the time comes, she will definitely act first, before us, to protect those people, or wipe them out.I guess she still believes in the dead more. ”Gu Haitang acquiesced in his prediction."

There's at least one person, she's going to kill him.Because of this person's delicate identity, he has participated in two unjust cases at the same time.He knew too much, and once he confessed, it would be too big a blow to Wu Qingyi. ”"Who" "My grandfather. ”"Xianguo Gong" "Well, the Ye family has a large amount of food in their hands, and it is estimated that the woman is trying to use it as a military salary."

After we opened these two old cases, she didn't want to spare Ye Wuji's life, "On the charge of disrupting the grain market, she committed murder and killing, and Ren Zhen arranged the motives and excuses for the empress to be clear."

Gu Haitang was relieved, "You just said that you didn't want to do it to the Ye family in person, it turned out that you wanted to borrow a knife to kill people." ”Ren Zhen sneered: "Kill a woman and dedicate the country, in exchange for glory and wealth, there is such a ruthless person in the world Since the duke is selfless, let him take the family and dedicate the country again" After that, he walked out of the City God Temple.Gu Haitang followed behind him and asked, "Who is the next target?"

"Taichang Siqing, Ouyang Qin."

The pile of secret files I showed you should have his information. ”"Hmm.""

He's not strong, it's not a big problem.If it's convenient, you can put your sword around his neck and help me ask a question.If the situation is not good, don't force it, your safety is the most important thing. ”"Hmm.""

The rumored posthumous son of King Xiang, whether it is true or not, he used to be a staff member of King Xiang, maybe he will know.""

Hmm."

After Ren Zhen finished explaining, he said be careful, and went home alone.Gu Haitang killed people invisibly, even if he went together, he would not be able to help, but it would be easy to be exposed, so it was better to go back to sleep early and recuperate his spirits.As soon as he entered the gate of the Blowing Water Residence, Mo Yuqing hurriedly greeted him and complained: "You are back, Gonggong Hong in the palace has come to pass on His Majesty's message, and he has been waiting for you for a long time." ”Before he finished speaking, Ren Zhen saw Hong Er come out with a smile."

Sir is really in charge of every day, and he has to go out late at night."

Ren Zhen smiled innocently, pretended to be drunk, and said slowly: "King Liang Liang invited me to drink, this marquis is really happy" Hong Eritch looked at his drunken state and couldn't help laughing."

Your Majesty said that my husband has been practicing outside the world for a long time, and I am afraid that he is not very familiar with the rules of the temple.It's just normal times, tomorrow morning the DPRK wants to discuss some military affairs, and it is indispensable to rely on Mr. for advice, you can't be late. ”It turned out that this so-called oracle was to remind Ren Zhen to remember the last dynasty tomorrow morning.Ren Zhenman didn't care, and shouted with a big grin: "I was late in Xiling, but this marquis was" was pretending to be drunk and bragging, his heart was suddenly tight, and the empress specially sent someone to inform him, which explained that the things to be talked about in the early dynasty must have a lot to do with him:
