Stealing Hook [Rebirth]

Mo Yuan made the decree of amnesty for the world, and the courtiers thought that the capital would be more stable because of this, but they didn't expect that just a few days later, there were changes in Prince Gong's Mansion and Prince Jin's Mansion.

When the incident happened in the middle of the night, the ministers were preparing to go to bed in their respective homes, when they heard a loud sound of horseshoes outside, and asked people to go to the door to inquire about the news.

The ministers suddenly didn't dare to sleep, and put on their own clothes and went to bed. While urging the servants to continue to inquire, they paced restlessly in the study room, waiting for a whole night, and did not get the definite news until the morning of the next day.

The imperial army went out of the palace in the middle of the night and went straight to the mansions of Prince Gong and Prince Jin. They surrounded the two mansions without even saying hello, and found a dragon robe in each of the two princes' homes. In addition, various evidences of the secret collusion of the two princes were found. The two princes kept calling for grievances. Wait for the emperor to send.

Then the forbidden army rushed to the homes of several ministers and royal relatives non-stop, found evidence that these people had colluded with King Gong and King Jin, and put these people in prison.

The courtiers were all shocked when they heard the news. Prince Gong had been at odds with the emperor all along, but he was blind after all, and no matter how hard he tried, he would not be able to become the emperor. Everyone didn't think about treason. He had never been a high-ranking rafter, and everyone would never have imagined that he also had a heart of disobedience. Now that they heard that the two princes were colluding with each other and secretly plotting to rebel, the ministers were naturally terrified, but then they became suspicious.

The Forbidden Army was dispatched without any warning, and the search was accurate. Could it be that someone secretly reported it?Why was there no sign of trouble before?However, the emperor was born in the Jianghu, and those people in the Jianghu are all erratic, so it must not be difficult to investigate a person.

Naturally, no one would explain this to them. Mo Yuan had an outburst in the early court, and finally said: "Prison them and send them off in the next year."

Conspiracy is a national crime, and it is not included in the pardon. The two princes and the forces behind them have completely collapsed.

That night, the Supreme Emperor's condition suddenly worsened, and all the imperial physicians in the palace rushed to the Supreme Emperor's bedroom. Mo Yuan also stayed in front of the Supreme Emperor's bed all night, and personally consulted the Supreme Emperor's medicine, but after midnight, there was no improvement. Yuan Lianye hurriedly summoned important officials into the palace, saying that the Supreme Emperor had something important to explain.

Seeing this situation, the ministers all knew that the Supreme Emperor was about to lose his strength, and began to wait anxiously for the news. At the same time, they secretly guessed: Perhaps the Supreme Emperor was stimulated by the matter of the two princes, right?On one side are his two sons, on the other side is his grandson, I don't know whether the Supreme Emperor is more distressed or annoyed, in short, it will not feel good, it is very normal for the disease to get worse.

The ministers found an explanation for themselves, but it saved Mo Yuan a lot of energy. After Mo Yuan and several humerus ministers entered the palace, he whispered in the ear of the Supreme Emperor: "Grandfather, the adults are here."

It means: Everyone who should come has come, let's act quickly.

Zheng Qian struggled to open his eyes, and said hoarsely to the eunuch beside him, "I have... I have a will..."

The eunuch hurriedly and carefully took out a tray. On the tray was a roll of bright yellow imperial decree. The ministers looked up and secretly, not daring to vent their anger. Now that the emperor has sat firmly on the dragon chair, I just beg the Supreme Emperor not to leave anything to embarrass the ministers. According to the will of the new emperor, everyone just wants to assist the new emperor in a safe and stable manner, and they really can't afford to toss about.

Zheng Qian said with difficulty: "I... what I am most ashamed of in this life is... my wife Yan, and my direct son... Xie Huan..."

The ministers breathed a sigh of relief, okay, as long as they are not confronting the emperor, they have nothing to worry about. The emperor probably wanted to tell them to help the emperor with his heart before he died.

But thinking about it, the faces of the ministers are more miserable than the last.

Zheng Qian took a breath, and continued: "I am ashamed of my ancestors, I have no face to face them... After I return to the west, I will not enter... I will not enter... I will not..."

The ministers were startled, thinking that he was about to die, so they hurriedly raised their heads, and saw the emperor kneeling beside the couch with a dignified expression, pricking a few needles into the Taishanghuang's body.

Zheng Qian seemed to regain the breath he was hanging on, and said weakly but firmly: "I will not enter the imperial tomb or the ancestral temple."

The ministers were stunned and almost fell down.

Not to enter the imperial mausoleum?It's worth it!

The Supreme Emperor started to build a mausoleum for himself when he first ascended the throne, but now he can't enter the imperial mausoleum. Isn't the built mausoleum empty?

Do not enter the ancestral temple?That's even worse!

If the throne of the Supreme Emperor is not placed in the ancestral temple in the future, where can it be placed?Do you want to find another place to settle?The majestic generation of emperors wants to become a lonely ghost?

Just when the ministers were shocked, Mo Yuan said in deep pain: "This is absolutely impossible! Grandson can't agree to anything!"

The Supreme Emperor puffed up his cheeks and said angrily: "Zhen...Zhen is not dead yet...You...Do you want to resist the edict?"

Mo Yuan covered his face with his sleeves, and fell to the ground choked with sobs: "Grandfather, please take it back!"

The ministers hurriedly nodded their foreheads and said in unison: "Please take back your orders, the Supreme Emperor!"

Zheng Qian said: "My heart... has been decided, there is no need... no need to persuade, the emperor will take it soon... my last decree..."

Mo Yuan refused to take it, and begged him repeatedly to withdraw his order, and the ministers followed behind to persuade him.

Zheng Qian coughed anxiously: "You want me to die with regret!"

Mo Yuan hurriedly got up to give him the needle, but he grabbed him: "Accept the order!"

The ministers have already started to cry, not just to put on a show, but the emperor’s decree is too unacceptable, the world pays more attention to the past and the posthumous name, not to mention the emperor, even ordinary people will not easily leave the family, but whoever does Who wouldn't want to leave a name in history after being an emperor?Who doesn't want to live in the Imperial Mausoleum of the Taimiao to enjoy the worship of later generations?The Taishanghuang's move can be described as decisive, which really frightened them.

Zheng Qian's face flushed red with anxiety, he gasped for breath, his eyeballs almost fell out of his sockets, he gritted his teeth and said, "I... I will die with regret... I will die without regret... Hurry up and accept the order... Receive the order..."

The ministers were trembling with fear, and they all turned their eyes to Mo Yuan: "The emperor... the emperor... how about..."

Mo Yuan took a deep breath, took the imperial decree with trembling hands amidst Zheng Qian's hissing voice, and mournfully said: "Grandson... I respect... the imperial grandfather's decree!"

Zheng Qian closed his eyes slowly, let go of his hands, and dropped down from the side of the couch.

"Grandfather—"

"The emperor—"

There was a sudden sound of mourning in the dormitory.

It didn't take long before the whole world learned of the death of the Supreme Emperor. After careful consideration of the government and the opposition, they suddenly discovered that the new emperor now ruled alone. All those who disagreed with him were suppressed. In the evening, it was after the new emperor had completely settled in the dragon chair.

It has to be said that the death of the Supreme Emperor is... too timely.

This kind of thinking can only stir in the hearts of some people, but no one dares to say it. In any case, this new emperor is the successor chosen by the Supreme Emperor, and the dragon chair was not usurped by the new emperor himself. No matter how coincidental the Taishanghuang's death was, it would not be the turn of others to comment, not to mention that the Taishanghuang gave the new emperor a will in front of so many ministers before his death, which showed that the Taishanghuang was very sober when he died.

When the Supreme Emperor passed away, the verbal will was naturally not detailed enough, and Mo Yuan asked the eunuch to read the will in front of the officials. Prince Gong's birth mother, implicated by Prince Gong's treason, was naturally not worthy of being buried in the imperial tomb, so she decided to leave the built imperial tomb to Xie Huan and his wife, and also told the ministers to assist the emperor wholeheartedly. Kowtow first, shout long live, no one has any objection.

Because the Supreme Emperor insisted not to enter the imperial mausoleum or the ancestral temple, Mo Yuan held the funeral in a grand manner to show his filial piety, but in comparison, the Supreme Emperor's home seemed shabby and lonely, with nowhere to go for the spiritual seat and body. We had to set aside a small area outside the imperial mausoleum.

The majestic generation of emperors only got a grave bag in the end, and there will be nothing after a hundred or a thousand years. The only thing that has shown his existence is probably only the records in the history books.

However, shortly after the Supreme Emperor's burial, Mo Yuan reversed the case for Zheng Qian. Later, in order to make up for the innocent disaster suffered by Zheng Qian's family, he issued a decree to return the original Zheng family's house to Zheng Qian, and let Zheng Qian The humble official returned to his original post and continued to enter the palace as a historian.

After Zheng Qian faked his death and left the palace, Lian Mufeng's people picked him up and cultivated himself, and then tidied himself up. Seeing that he was full of vigor, and there was no shadow of the emperor, no one would think too much about him.

After Mo Yuan's decree came down, Zheng Qian was summoned into the palace. Since the official historian was a hereditary official position, after Zheng Qian came back, the original historian could only step down to the second place, and no one objected to this.

Since Mo Yuan ascended the throne, there have been repeated changes in the government, and it was only at this time that it was quiet, but no one knew about it under the calm conditions. Zheng Qian followed Mo Yuan's instructions, and picked out all the records about the old emperor in the history museum, quietly. After sending it to Mo Yuan, Mo Yuan ordered people to send these records out of the palace and pile them up next to the cage where the old emperor was imprisoned.

In the dead of night, the Jiuxi people loaded the old emperor and Shishu into the carriage, and walked all the way to the gate of the city. The guards at the gate of the city were arranged by Mo Yuan. The Xi tribe transported the old emperor out of the palace in such a grand manner.

The carriage rushed all the way out of Beijing, and finally stopped in front of an unremarkable earthen tomb next to the imperial mausoleum.

Zheng Qian faked his death, so the earthen tomb was naturally empty, and the guards around the earthen tomb were also from Mo Yuan's side. When they saw a carriage approaching, they immediately went up to meet it.

The Jiuxi tribe piled up all the history books in front of the earthen grave, and moved the old emperor out of the carriage so that he faced the direction of the earthen tomb and history books, and then lifted the black cloth covering the cage.

The leader said humanely: "The emperor said, for the sake of being close relatives, let you rest in peace, this earthen grave is your home after death."

Although the old emperor was tortured to the point of being unhealthy, he was still very conscious. When he saw the low grave in front of him, he was greatly stimulated.

The person in charge told him all the recent movements in the court. Every time he said a word, the old emperor's pupils widened. He hit the cage with his head like crazy.

The leader pointed to a pile of books next to him: "This is the record made by the historian for you. It is impossible for you to expect your merits and demerits to be told to future generations. After a hundred or a thousand years, you will completely disappear from history. No one remembers you." As he spoke, it seemed that he was afraid that he would not believe it, so he picked up a few books and opened them for him to read, then threw the books back after reading, and took a torch from the tribe.

The old emperor looked at the torch in his hand, his eyes were about to burst, he shook his head frantically, and his mutilated body rolled and bumped wildly in the cage.

"The emperor said that your spiritual seat is not qualified to be placed in the ancestral temple..."

"Bang bang bang-"

"Your body is not worthy of being buried in the imperial tomb..."

"Bang bang bang-"

"Your name should not be remembered by future generations..."

"Bang bang bang-"

"The emperor knows that you are not afraid of death, so he specially ordered us to burn these history books in front of you. Once this fire is burned, you will disappear completely."

"Bang bang bang— bang—"

Due to the excessive force, the mad old emperor knocked over the cage, as if determined to roll over to protect those history books.

The leader gave an order, and threw the torch first, and several other clansmen also threw the torches on the history books at the same time. The flames gradually lit up, illuminating the old emperor's frantic and ferocious eyes behind his disheveled hair.

"boom--"

The flames shot up into the sky, the old emperor struggled for a long time, and suddenly stopped moving, staring straight at the sea of ​​flames in front of him.

When the sky was twilight and the fire was gradually extinguished, the leader opened the cage and poked his fingers under the old emperor's nose.

"Give it up, let's bury it."
