A few days later, the main force of the "Crime Punishment Army" entered Nanzhili. Zhang Fu, Liu Sheng and other military generals arrived in the capital first.
Zhang Fu returned home and found that his family had been released from prison by order of the new emperor. Liu Sheng also hurried home.
Late February was the season of spring, with mountains and waters, and flowers and plants growing luxuriantly in the capital. But when Liu Sheng led his horse along in a hurry, he always felt that it was a little gloomy. Perhaps it was because the sun didn't come out today, a cloudy day always made people feel that it was not bright.
A series of major events, such as the enthronement of the new emperor and sacrifices, had all ended at this time; the streets were a little deserted in the afternoon, and the sound of "clack clack..." of horseshoes stepping on bricks and stones was very clear.
Liu Sheng was in a hurry to go to Beijing, but their itinerary had alrea
After Wang Gui followed the troops of the Han Dynasty to Beijing, he was immediately appointed as the eunuch and eunuch, and received a secret order to assist Gao Xianning. The death of the late emperor involved people in the palace. With the help of the eunuchs and eunuchs, it was more convenient for Gao Xianning to investigate the case secretly.In the old palace of the Han Dynasty to the west of the imperial city, there are now troops stationed in the Northern Division of the former Han Dynasty Guards Palace. Gao Xianning, the minister of Dali Temple, is not in the government office, but he has set up a residence in the old palace of the King of Han Dynasty, where he handles imperial cases. At the same time, he can call on the personnel of the Northern Division during the handling of the case.When eunuch Wang Gui walked into the study, Gao Xianning was sitting inside, seemingly thinking hard about something. At this time, Gao Xianning stood up, and after the c
Wang Gui, the eunuch and eunuch who was responsible for the ceremony, entered the imperial city and passed through the Qianqing Gate. When he just walked to the slope corridor, he heard a sound of voices. He followed the sound and saw that Emperor Zhu Gaoxu was under a plum tree outside, not in Dongnuan Pavilion.Zhu Gaoxu was lying on the ground, supporting his body with his limbs, and was constantly moving, as if he was having sex with the ground. Wang Gui is not surprised at all. He has seen it as early as when he was in Yunnan. It is said that it is called "push-up". But I have never seen the eunuchs and maids in the palace. Some eunuchs are flattering me, "Your Majesty, with the spirit of dragon and tiger, he will be able to control ten maidens every day!"The palace maids on the side had red faces and looked embarrassed, and did not dare to say anything.Wang Gui walked around calmly and stood aside with a bow.After a moment, Zhu Gaoxu found him
The circle of the powerful and wealthy in the capital was gradually changing. This process was very fast, and more and more big figures from the former Hanwangfu Group were coming to the capital.On a sunny day, at Dinghuai Gate in the outer city of the capital, gongs and drums were being beaten. The people of the Mu Mansion, as well as Wei Da, one of the three guards of the Han Palace, had already disembarked from the dock; a large group of people were entering the capital through Dinghuai Gate.The carriage, guards and entourage were huge and the number of people and horses was enough to show his noble status. There were also officials and runners from the court who came to greet him, as well as passers-by who stopped nearby to watch. For a time, the Dinghuai Gate was crowded with people and noisy.In the procession of the Mu family, Mu Zhen and her daughter sat in a carriage. Mu Zhen was almost twenty years old and still unmarried; but Xiping Marquis Mu S
In addition to the Shen family, the businessmen who had funded Zhu Gaoxu in Yunnan, a group of civil and military officials who had served in the Han Dynasty happened to be arriving in Beijing one after another at this time.So Zhu Gaoxu planned to grant the title of military minister first and then the harem. He summoned "Mr. Li", Hou Hai, and Qian Xun in the East Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace to discuss the matter. Why haven't we discussed the title of knight yet? We have discussed the titles first."Mr. Li" believed that in order to be conferred the titles of duke, marquis, or earl, according to the ancestral system, one must have made great contributions to the court and have legitimate reasons.Therefore, the court should call those military officials who have been granted titles as "fighting crimes and promoting loyalty in accordance with the will of heaven" and make it clear to the world and future generations that the merits of the military offici
Night had fallen, but the old palace of the King of Han, and even the entire capital, was not dark at this time; lights were on everywhere in the city. The palace of the King of Han in the capital was very large and deep, and it was very quiet at this moment.Gao Xianning sorted out his thoughts for a while.The name and academic title of the young man Xiao Wencai, who was tied up in front of us, might be true; otherwise he would not have lied and claimed to be a juren. In the eyes of officials in the capital, a juren is nothing and cannot scare anyone; on the contrary, it is very easy to verify the identity of someone with an academic title.If Xiao Wencai wanted to lie, why would he tell a lie that could be easily verified?Xiao Wencai said that the person he was worshipping was named Li and was his childhood friend. This statement could be a lie!Zhang Sheng, the commander of the Imperial Guard, had confirmed with his subordinates that the gra
"Uncle (Xiao Jien) is not of the Xiao family's blood." Xiao Wencai, who was in a mixed situation, found out the matter with great difficulty.Seeing the troubled look on his face, Gao Xianning felt that this matter might be a bit serious. He quickly wrote a line of words, then picked up his pen and waited there. Zhang Sheng and Du Erlang were both attracted and stared at Xiao Wencai intently. Only Yao Fang was still thinking hard about something.Xiao Wencai was silent for a long time, and finally continued, "My grandfather had been married for several years and had no children. He took a concubine and still had no children. The Wang family and the Xiao family have been friends for several generations. At that time, the Wang family already had the eldest son, so they The second son was adopted by the Xiao family and his surname was changed to Xiao Jien. Later, my grandfather gave birth to a biological son, who became my father."Gao Xianning suddenly said, "
At three o'clock in the middle of the night, the huge capital city had already quieted down, leaving only stars-like lights shining on the night sky. A burst of rapid horse hoofbeats startled the soldiers guarding the city gate and broke the silence at the moment.All the soldiers hurriedly stood in the middle of the road to stop him.I saw more than twenty riders coming, all wearing bloated green clothes. In this late spring, it was very strange to wear such thick clothes. There must be battle armor underneath the clothes! They also wore black cloaks and hats on their heads; some of them even had pale masks on their faces, looking as scary as ghosts.Seeing this scene, the defenders immediately drew their swords! A general pressed his sword and shouted, "Stop! What are you doing?"A man in black said coldly, "Zhang Sheng, the commander of the Jin Yiwei, has been ordered to leave the city.""Seal!" said the general.Zhang Sheng, who was dre
"It's him!" Zhu Gaoxu cursed and walked back and forth in the East Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace. Apart from him, there was only one eunuch, Wang Gui, in the partition, so he cursed again, "Yao Fang is not even as good as the underworld!"In his previous life, Zhu Gaoxu had dealt with gangsters because of gambling and debts. Even those bad guys usually acted in a methodical way, and usually stood on the position of right and wrong, saying: You don't pay your debts, you don't know the rules, you don't give face...etc., to gain confidence first, and then do illegal and violent things!Yao Fang was different. She had a clear chance of winning and was the most powerful opponent, but she had to cover herself with a bowl of shit first! She also covered Zhu Gaoxu with a bowl of shit!Zhu Gaoxu cursed, "When I was a vassal king, I had an army of 100,000. I had to be patient when I had to. I was not as arrogant as Yao Fang!"Wang Gui carefully echoed, "How c
