Vol 2 Chapter 981: kill without spilling blood

The second year of Jingming, spring.
Gu Jiu moved into the imperial palace from the Qin Palace.
The newly built palace was named "Chang'an Palace" by Liu Zhao himself.
The Chang'an Palace was built completely according to the idea of ​​taking care of Jiu, which changed the solemn and depressed style of the past palaces.
There are pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, there are colorful...
There are comfortable and warm bedrooms, spacious and bright halls, a study room with rows of bookshelves, and a signing room next to the study room for office use.
There are partial halls for children to rest, and houses for palace residents.
I brought my own kitchenette and even opened a vegetable plot in the corner of the garden.
After closing the gate of Chang'an Palace, there is a completely independent space inside.
Since Gu Jiu moved into Chang'an Palace, Liu Zhao ran here every day.
Not only do I have to live in at night, but I also rely on the study of Chang'an Palace to handle government affairs during the day.
Gu Jiu suspected that he was occupying the position and wanted to drive him away.
He would not go.
"You are comfortable here, and the chair is not ugly."
"You can change the Xingqing Palace chair."
"That won't work! I like you here."
Gu Jiu rolled his eyes and ordered the palace staff to clean up a room again and use it as a study room for Liu Zhao's office.
The two study rooms are next to each other, separated by a door.
In this way, Liu Zhao could not only handle government affairs in Chang'an Palace, but also summon courtiers.
The emperor and queen did not interfere with each other, but they were connected to each other.
Regarding Liu Zhao's wayward behavior, the courtiers closed one eye.
It's just a change of palace office. Compared with those willful actions in the past, this is nothing and can be tolerated.
The courtiers could tolerate the emperor, but they couldn't tolerate the willful actions of Chengping Uncle Gu Ling.
As a son of man, the old man in the family passed away and he did not observe filial piety.
This is a great rebellion, no ruler, no father, no ethics.
Such a person should hang on the pole of shame and crucify him.
Stepmother?
step son?
The relationship between "mother and child" is not harmonious?
Ha ha!
Don't care about the relationship, don't care about whether there is feelings, as long as the mother and son are nominally, Gu Ling has to wear hemp and filial piety.
This is Gangchang ethics, a secular standard, and no one can be an exception.
Relying on being the queen mother and brother, I want to do whatever he wants and dream!
The emperor's consent does not count.
You have to ask the court if you agree.
Yu Shi, like a fly smelling rotten eggs, swarmed and surrounded Gu Ling.
Rolling up their sleeves one by one, they are on the go, and the melodrama of impeaching Gu Yu flew into the court like snow flakes and flew to the desk of Emperor Liu Zhao.
In the memorial, the censors scolded Gu Ling from head to toe thoroughly.
Looking at the sharp words of the censors, Gu Ling is a man, but a beast.
Not only were the historians excited about impeachment, but also all government officials and local officials joined in the excitement. Shangben asked the emperor to severely punish Gu Yu in order to strengthen the court.
The dignified first-class uncle of the court, the second-class lack of generals, openly opposed the secular ethics.
Just because of a bit of old grievances, the stepmother will not be filial piety. Once this case is opened, the world will be in chaos.
How does the Great Zhou rule the world?
It depends on the three principles and five permanence, and it depends on filial piety.
The imperial court officials take the lead and want to be beasts. What else do such people keep without severe punishment?
Do you want to stay and set a bad example for the world?
Courtiers criticized and sentiment was raging.
Some people took the rhythm in the newspaper, and implicitly attacked Gu Ling without naming them.
Don't rely on the empress's backing, you can do whatever you want.
Everyone has nothing to do with the empress, can't you still be a reckless general?
Hugh should underestimate the courtier's combat effectiveness.
The storm in the court is not worth mentioning to Liu Zhao and Gu Jiu, who have experienced various intrigues and storms.
But for Gu Ling, who had never experienced the and battle of the court, the blood in his body was already cold.
He roared like a sleepy beast.
He wants white knives to go in and red knives out, he wants to do it with real knives and guns, and he wants to simply end everything.
But the tricks he knows, the killing tactics he learned on the battlefield, are useless in court.
Once, he only fought real swords and guns, nowhere has he seen swordsmen kill people. Moreover, there is no blood in the murder, but the heart is condemned every word, every word is fatal.
Pei Man persuaded him, "Don't pay attention to the rumors outside, those yushi specializes in this, if you take it seriously, you will fall into their trap. The empress has said it, just a little disturbance, so you don't need to care."
How could Gu Ling not care.
"If I don't keep Xie's filial piety, will I become a beast? What is Xie's killing my mother indirectly?"
"They are all nonsense and don't understand the inside story at all. Don't be angry."
How could he not be angry, he almost exploded with anger.
"I have never hated the capital, the court, and the historians as I do today. I didn't understand why Luhou always refused to return to the capital and criticized the court officials. Now I understand. The court is the execution ground, Yushi is the servant, and the courtier is the prison officer. I am a military officer who is not a hindrance, only an eye-catcher, and they treat me like killing my father and enemies. If Luhou returns to Beijing, I am afraid that I will be caught Only by frustrating bones and ashes can the group of historians disappear."
Pei Man sighed, "You are the brother of the empress, and in the eyes of courtiers, you are the biggest target."
Gu Ling smiled coldly, "I will never compromise."
I would rather die than put on the linen and filial piety for the Xie family.
When any courtier was impeached, he would never back down.
Even in order to draw a clear line, Gu Yu and his family moved into the new house that Gu Jiu bought for him.
Even the door plaque given by the court of "Chengping Bo" made him move to the door of the new house and hang it.
On the side of Gu's house, it's okay, he won't take a half step.
Just because of this, Yu Shi was like a chicken blood, and caught him every day.
If one day there is no impeachment of Gu Yan's memorial, everyone will feel that something is missing and they are not used to it.
Gu Wei came to the door several times to talk to Gu Wei.
Gu Yu told the truth, "I have no prejudice against you, but forgive me for not being able to keep filial piety for your mother."
Gu Teng smiled bitterly, "I all understand that both father and mother are sorry for you. It's just that the court has a lot of criticism, don't you worry about your future? Just behave and don't have to be filial in private."
Gu Ling shook his head and resolutely refused, "You don't need to persuade me, my heart is determined."
Gu Yu sighed, "Fine, I won't force you. Gu Gong had many opinions on me, and he stayed in the northwest and refused to return to Beijing. I wrote back and said that he was filial in the northwest, and all funeral matters in the capital depended on me. There is really nothing to do with him."
Gu Yu said: "Others are in the military, and they can be expedient in extraordinary times."
For a while, Gu Wei regretted it. He had long known that these things would happen. He stayed in the northwest and did not return.
Of course, he also knew it was impossible.
As Gu's family and the queen's brother, he could not continue to stay in the Northwest Army anyway.
Gu Teng was very distressed.
After receiving the funeral letter from Beijing, he completed the transfer of government affairs in the shortest time, and then took his wife and children back to Beijing by car.
Hurry up and get to the capital in mid-February of the second year of Jingming.
After returning to the capital, he was busy doing funerals, working as a dojo, and buried Xie in the tomb of Gu's family ancestor.
After finishing everything, people have collapsed.
After catching up with Yu Shi and staring at Gu's family, Gu Yu was impeached, and Gu's life was not easy.
Gu Gong refused to return to Beijing to guard his filial piety, and he stayed in the army, so naturally he was criticized.
However, Gu Gong was just a little shrimp in Yu Shi's eyes, so he was not a waste of pen and ink.
Gu Ling is the big fish in their eyes.
"Gu Yu refused to return to Beijing, probably because he didn't want to see me." Gu Yu thought clearly.
Gu Gong had grievances against him, and this grievance had not disappeared for many years.
Gu Ling asked casually: "Do you want to see him?"
Gu Yu nodded, "Naturally want to see him, wondering how well he has been over the years. The eldest is not young, and he hasn't got married yet, so he can't be a bachelor for a lifetime. If he is willing to return to the capital and wait for filial piety, I will let his wife give him. Let’s take a look at a marriage. But if others don’t come back, I’m beyond the reach."
Gu Ling said with a cold face, "That home is not worth going back."
At this moment, he understood Gu Gong's thoughts.
Gu Teng looked tangled in pain, "No matter how unbearable that family is, it is also a family. As a son of man, how can he think that the family is not good."
Gu Yu stared at Gu Yu coldly, he just disliked it, what happened.
Gu Teng was very helpless, "I can see it clearly. All the family members have a bad temper. That is, I am willing to temper my temper and talk to everyone."
This is true.
The children of the Gu family are not good tempered.
Gu Yu suffocated too much, and he nagged, "Gu Shan still complains about me, saying that I was too harsh on my mother. She didn't want to think about who I was for. Gu Yue bullied her like that, and her mother was blind. Protecting Gu Yue. Without taking away her mother’s right to housekeeping, Gu Yue instigated her from the side, not knowing how much more right and wrong there will be. Now when people die, they remember her good and forget her bad. Think of her good, just think of her good. Begin to blame me, blame my wife. Human heart is really unbearable."
Gu Ling didn't say a word, so he listened to him nagging.
Gu Teng can get drunk even with tea, and some say a lot.
"...The years when I was a foreign official were the fastest years for me. When I returned to the capital, I felt like a different person. I made a smile everywhere and was cautious everywhere."
"I really envy you, you say you don't observe filial piety, you don't obey filial piety, and you don't compromise at all. I don't have the confidence and courage of you."
"If you don’t observe filial piety, I don’t blame you. I’m serious, I don’t blame you at all. You are a person of love and justice. If others treat you well, you will double back. But she never treated you well, you Of course you don’t have to be filial for her.
"She died, but I was relieved. I was the real unfilial son."
"When the turmoil passes, I will close the door to study and cultivate my character."
"The guards of my father are all sent from the palace. Very good, very good."
"You're saying something! You don't have any reaction when I dig my heart out to you?"
Gu Ling was silent.
Gu Teng was sad and wronged, so he just stayed at Chengping Bo's house and stopped leaving.
After a long time, he heard Gu Ling speak.
"The capital is becoming more and more unfamiliar to me. Born on the battlefield, and died on the battlefield, I already know what I should do."
Gu Teng became sober in an instant, "Don't do stupid things!"
