Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 270
Gao Longzhi coerced the emperor and empress to pay the tax-free money, which was not enough. The next day he entered the palace again and forced Yuan Shanjian to pay for the palace maid and eunuch.

The Son of Heaven was imprisoned in the deep palace since he was a child, and he had no business management, and his pockets were shy.

He planned to sell some of the utensils in the palace to make up for the millions of dollars, but Gao Longzhi refused. He finally left the palace with an IOU signed and pledged by Yuan Shanjian.

After Gao Longzhi left the palace city, he was proud of this and said to his close friends:
"All the utensils in the palace will belong to the property of the general in the future. How can the emperor be allowed to repay the debt? Now he has an IOU, which will be repaid with his food in the future Chan Kingdom. '

Listen, is this called human talk?

It is said that Yuan Shan saw a mixture of grief and indignation, and read a poem on the spot:

Gouli State was wrong.

It is Xie Lingyun's poem:
"Han's son Fang Fen died, and Qin Emperor Zhong was even ashamed; he was originally from Jianghai, and his loyalty moved the gentleman." '

Sanqi's regular servant Xun Ji has read a lot of sage books and talked about the righteousness of a monarch and his ministers all his life. He never thought that such a vicious thing would happen in the world.

This great Confucianist could no longer bear the emperor's bullying, so on an ordinary morning, when Gao Longzhi was leaving the mansion to go to the Ministry of Shangshu, Xun Jiyi blocked the road without hesitation and scolded:

"People have three principles, the king is the guide of ministers. I heard that Gao Pushe's surname is Xu. His grandfather Xu Cheng was a regular attendant, and his father Gao Gan was also a county guard. Gao Junshi received the Yuan family's great kindness. He didn't want to repay him, but he bullied the emperor. How different is it from a beast to utter wild and rebellious words!"

Gao Longzhi didn't care about being called a beast, but what he hated most in his life was when others mentioned his surname Xu.

He is a descendant of the Bohai Gao family who was entered into the genealogy by Bohai King Gao Huan himself. He is a serious member of the Gao family.

"I really don't dare to kill you, a pedantic old scholar!"

In anger, Gao Long drew his sword and pointed it at Xun Ji.

Xun Ji was fearless, he shouted loudly:
"I heard that Gao Jun begged for marriage to Cui Gong Xiaofen from Boling back then, but Cui Gong refused, so Gao Jun held a grudge and entered into a slander with the general. Cui Gong and his five sons were killed. Gao Jun loved to kill people, how could Ji not know!"

The road was congested, and there were not only passers-by watching, but also Beijing officials and courtiers getting off their carriages. Seeing the crowd arguing, Gao Longzhi quickly diverted the conflict:

"Cui Xiaofen conspired against him, and his death is not a pity. Xun Ji, you, a southerner, are here to sow discord, what kind of intentions do you have in mind!"

It is true that Xun Ji came from the Xun family in Yingchuan, but his ancestor went to the south and lived in Jiangdong. He and Xiao Yan's commoner friendship was only due to a rivalry and mutual hatred. Later, when Xiao Yan came to power, Xun Ji was annoyed by some things Xiao Yan, worried about revenge, fled to the north in a panic.

"I am a southerner, and I was taken in at the end of my life. Although I am humble, I still feel kindness and righteousness. The reason for this today is just loyalty."

After all, Gao Longzhi didn't dare to kill people on the spot, not because he was afraid of Xun Ji's righteousness, but after this old Confucian went to the north, he taught and taught students everywhere.

What really made Gao Longzhi fearful was that Gao Huan once said to others:
'I love Ji and want to complete it, so I don't need Ji. '

Gao Huan knew that Xun Jiyu was loyal to the emperor and ministers, and he didn't use Xun Ji to save his life.

He didn't hesitate to ask Gao Longzhi to bully Yuan Shanjian, but he wouldn't dare to use Gao Longzhi's ten guts to kill a person Gao Huan wanted to protect.

After ordering his servants to drive Xun Ji away, Gao Longzhi didn't bother to go to Shangshu Province, so he went directly to Zhongshu Province to find Gao Cheng and cry.

How could Gao Cheng be willing to let his old darling be wronged? He couldn't understand why these diehard Yuan family members didn't want to appreciate the difficulty of the country.

Isn't it just to let Yuan Shanjian pay the palace servants' immunity money on behalf of them? Isn't this just to let the rich and powerful pay the servants' immunity money on their behalf, forcing them to further release the slaves.

He had tens of thousands of servants in the Bohai Prince's Mansion in Luoyang, so Gao Cheng also set an example and paid the money on his behalf.

"General, Cui Shangshu said that the treasury of the household department is full, and the exempt money paid by the general should be temporarily deposited in the Bohai Palace."

While Gao Cheng was comforting Gao Longzhi, Wei Xingqing, who delivered the immunity money from the Bohai Palace to the household department, reported back.

You see, Xiao Gao Wang not only needs to pay the exemption money, but also helps Cui Jishu to keep it on his behalf. How has he ever complained about his hardships to others.

Asking Wei Xingqing to move the money back to Bohai Palace, Gao Cheng continued to comfort Gao Long:
"Uncle and I are blood relatives, so why bother to worry about other people's words."

Xue Hu'er and Hexi Shele, who were accompanying them, couldn't figure it out. One's surname was Gao, and the other's real surname was Xu. How could they be related by blood, but they didn't dare to ask.

Gao Longzhi burst into tears, begging Gao Cheng to deal with Xun Ji.

But Gao Cheng could not find any behavior that could make Xun Ji a death penalty. No matter how arrogant and domineering King Gao was, he did not write in the "Taichang Law" that being loyal to the Yuan family was a death penalty.

When Gao Cheng was at a loss, Gao Longzhi wiped his tears and suggested:
"Why not exile him to Jiangnan."

Gao Cheng thought to himself: Good guy, I haven't been reading "Three Kingdoms" at home recently.

At least read the record that Cao Cao sent Mi Heng to Liu Biao, Liu Biao transferred it to Huang Zu, and finally Mi Heng was killed by Huang Zu, otherwise, killing people with a knife would not be so smooth.

Little Gao Wang didn't rush to agree, but just asked out his doubts, and Gao Longzhi replied:

"The great general wants to replace Wei, but the lower officials read history to find examples."

Gao Longzhi's thoughtfulness made Xiao Gao Wang's heart warm, and he immediately ordered Xun Ji to be driven back to the south of the Yangtze River.

This move caused an uproar, and countless scholars petitioned, but they couldn't change Gao Cheng's mind.

When Xun Ji was escorted to Liluo by Gao Cheng's personal guards, the city was full of scholars who saw him off. Everyone dared not criticize Gao Cheng, so they cursed Gao Longzhi as a traitor.

Gao Longzhi consciously forced Xun Ji away, he was in a good mood, and he didn't bother to care about it anymore, as long as he didn't say his surname was Xu, the world could scold him whatever he wanted.

Xun Ji bid farewell to the Confucian scholars and students who were seeing him off, boarded the carriage and headed south, but saw a letter with ugly handwriting on the carriage.

'Cheng and his son are in high positions, if they advance, they will live, if they retreat, they will die. They are in a difficult situation, and Duke Xun does not know it.

'My father loves my father, and wants to keep him safe, so I don't want my father to occupy a high position.

"Cheng also loved his father, and chased him to his old place in the south of the Yangtze River to save his life.

"If the public is in the north, if you uphold the ambition of being loyal to the emperor, you will die."

'Xiao Yan is old, and he misses his old love, so he will not blame his father with old grievances, or there may be a glimmer of life. '

After Xun Ji looked at it, he sighed deeply.

Gao Cheng drove away the crowd and sat alone in Zhongshu Province.

"Han's dead son Fang Fen, Qin Emperor Zhong Lian shame; originally from Jianghai, loyal and righteous move gentlemen."

Different from Yuan Shanjian's resentment, Gao Cheng's tone was full of regret.

Everyone loves loyal ministers and righteous men, and Gao Cheng is no exception.

But he never thought about changing Xun Ji, and he knew he couldn't change it, let alone change it.
