Xu Wenhui didn't notice these episodes in the backyard.

Even if you know it, you won't care too much. It's just a grasshopper in the autumn, and you probably won't have time to settle the score!
After chatting with some acquaintances for a while, I soon got the news that King Yong was about to arrive!

Because King Yong is traveling on behalf of the emperor,

So all those present should go to the front door of the Gu family to greet him!

Because there are too many people, besides taking care of family members!

Men and women stand in separate lines, with the men in front standing outside the door, and the women behind basically waiting in the courtyard!
From a distance, I can see the five-carriage carriage that only the feudal king can ride. It is magnificent!

There were guards and soldiers sent by Ouchi at the front and back wearing Mingguang armor, they looked majestic!
Speaking of which, Xu Wenhui personally issued the dispatch order for these guards and soldiers!

The people next to me were talking quietly while waiting.
"It's King Yong again. This is the first time he has represented the official family. He is also protected by bodyguards and soldiers. It seems that the official registration edict will be issued soon!"

"Yes, yes! It looks like it's about to be settled! Let's have a good night in court! I can't even sleep well these days!"

"Who says it's not the case! I lost a lot of hair! It's finally healed now! I'll change the canonization edict tomorrow! Everyone is safe!"

"Oh, not everyone is safe. I heard that the Yongyi Marquis and the Yong family don't seem to be dealing with it... If the Yong family is determined, wouldn't their family be in trouble?"

"Shh! Keep your voice down... This is something you and I can't comment on... But I heard it seems to be true..."

The voices behind him became quieter and quieter. Xu Wenhui didn't expect to hear his own gossip!
Xu Yaozu next to him probably heard similar words. The expression on his face looked very ugly. He moved closer to Xu Wenhui and said:
"You'll have some discernment later! Now it's 99% certain that King Yong will be king! You can't be stupid again! No matter what we nobles do, we have to be in awe when facing the royal family. Do you understand!"

Xu Wenhui curled his lips when he heard this, but he didn't want to argue with Xu Yaozu at this time, so he nodded and said:
"It's father, I know!"

"Hey, if I had known this, I should have taken you to King Yong to apologize earlier that day! You are so young and energetic! You are so young and energetic!"

At this time, King Yong's frame finally came closer.
Seeing King Yong formally walking out with one hand dragging the bright yellow imperial edict, everyone quickly knelt down and saluted! Welcome the Holy Master!

When King Yong saw such a dream scene, he couldn't help but feel satisfied and excited!

Although this time I still have the light of the imperial edict in my hand, this day is coming soon!

Before arriving just now, Emperor Zhao Zhen had already given him the details, saying that he had ordered the Qintian Supervisor to choose a good and auspicious day!
Thinking of sitting in that position soon, all the ministers are also prostrate and giving lectures,
King Yong was intoxicated for a while, until he heard the reminder from the eunuch next to him coughing dryly, and then he came back to his senses.
After having everyone kneel for a long time, they got a little carried away and quickly handed the eunuch the edict in their hands and asked him to read it out!

After receiving the imperial edict, the eunuch immediately unfolded it, and then shouted in a high and steady tone,

"It's God's destiny, the emperor's edict says! Ningyuan waits for Gu's banquet..."

The content is nothing more than praising Gu Yankai's past achievements and conferring Gu Yankai the title of 'Wu Jinggong'!
As for who the heir to the Gu family is, it was not mentioned in this imperial edict!

I'm afraid it can only be revealed after the new king takes over the throne, which is considered to be a favor to the new king!
No matter who the new monarch chooses, the next Ning Yuanhou will definitely follow the new monarch’s lead!
Everyone present is not a fool, they are all aware of it!

After the imperial edict was read out, King Yong immediately stepped forward to help Gu Tingyu, who was kneeling in the first place.
Because the Gu family is the home court and the heir has not yet been completely determined, Gu Tingyu, the eldest son, is at the front of the line.

King Yong helped Gu Tingyu up very affectionately, patted Gu Tingyu on the shoulder and said:

"My condolences, eldest son! Duke Wu Jing has passed away. You must take care of your health and shoulder the responsibility of the Gu family's large family business. You must not let down Duke Wu Jing's high expectations!"

Okay, no need to think about it now, this King Yong has basically expressed his support for Gu Tingyu!

Thinking about it, it is probably a matter of course. The positions of King Yong and Gu Tingyu are naturally consistent!

What's more, because the affairs of the Gu family indirectly promoted King Yong's succession, King Yong also had a good feeling for Gu Tingyu!

Gu Tingyu behaved politely and without any special flattery, but he also expressed his gratitude in a timely manner.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please come into your residence and rest!"

"Well! Okay, the emperor is not feeling well today, so he asked me to pay homage to Duke Wu Jing on his behalf! Let's go, let's go together!"

King Yong agreed, then nodded towards everyone, and immediately took the lead and walked in!

Xu Wenhui deliberately stayed behind, turned around and walked towards the guards who had been guarding King Yong!
When Wang Maochun, the capital chief, saw Xu Wenhui approaching, he immediately stepped forward to salute.

"Wang Maochun, the commander of the three capitals of the first battalion, comes to see the commander!"

"No courtesy!" Xu Wenhui waved his hand casually, and then asked:

"Did you see Master Cao when you came?"

"Your Majesty, my subordinates did not see it!"

"Well, that's right! I just asked, okay, it's okay! There's something a little rough today, please pay attention!"

After a reminder, Xu Wenhui turned around and left!
Although these guards and soldiers were issued by him, they are not actually Xu Wenhui's confidants!

When the officials transferred Xu Wenhui from the northwest to the Guards and Military Division, it seemed that he was promoted high, but in fact, he was promoted openly and secretly, and was hung up high!
Otherwise, if Xu Wenhui is directly assigned to the Beijing camp, that will be the real promotion!

The Guards and Military Division has been run by Cao Guozhang, the emperor's brother-in-law, for too many years. It is almost as hard to pour water as an iron bucket!
Although it is not impossible to pry a piece out of it, it takes a lot of effort!

In addition, it was obvious when Xu Wenhui first entered the Pro-Military Division that the emperor did not really want to have the actual power of the Pro-Military Division! Cao Guozhang also held on very tightly!
Therefore, Xu Wenhui regarded the Pro-Military Division as a normal job, commuting to and from get off work normally, and did not manage to gain power among the sergeants!

He just asked about Cao Guozhang's situation. King Yong's motorcade and Cao Guozhang happened to be on the same road.

Since the capital commander Wang Maochun just said that he had not met Cao Guozhang, it means that Cao Guozhang may have been controlled by someone!

……

Because of a slight delay, when Xu Wenhui entered,
King Yong has paid homage to Gu Yankai on behalf of the emperor.

Everyone came to the front hall, and the women must have also gone to the backyard!

At this time, King Yong was sitting at the head of the house, talking loudly about something!
Seeing Xu Wenhui come in, King Yong immediately stopped, waved to Xu Wenhui and said:
"Haha, isn't this General Xu? Come here, come here! I'm talking to the old generals about you! You are a rare young talent in our army! The future of this week lies in your hands!"

He hasn't even ascended the throne yet, but he has started talking about Da Zhou's future!
But this King Yong is not a complete idiot. He knows how to do some superficial things and be polite to someone like himself who he can't deal with!
Xu Wenhui felt bad, but he probably went crazy for the last time, and there was no need to cause trouble at this stall, so he walked over!
There are indeed some veteran generals in the army next to them.
The British public, the old general and so on!
As a junior, Xu Wenhui naturally raised his hands in salute!

"I have met King Yong and all the generals!"

Everyone exchanged pleasantries again. King Yong naturally regarded himself as the heir to the throne and encouraged and won over the generals!

Uncle Huang is not in good health. Please support me more in the future!
Xu Wenhui was a little impatient after hearing this.
Finally, noises and shouts of death came from outside.

The expressions of everyone present changed, especially the generals!
This voice is really familiar!
This is clearly an army attacking the Gu Mansion!

But how is this possible? This is in Bianjing City! Unless someone rebels...

King Yong stood up and was about to take everyone out to have a look, but he hadn't left the front hall yet!

Countless soldiers poured in and surrounded the entire front hall on three levels and three levels outside!
The screams and sounds of fear spread instantly, but soon became silent again under the pressure of the army!

At this moment,
King Yong stood up and shouted sternly:

"How outrageous! What kind of soldiers are you! How dare you touch the hilt of a knife in front of this king! Do you really want to rebel?"

"Haha! Of course we don't want to rebel! The one who really rebels is you, King Yong!"

Following the words, the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division, Rongxian, walked in! Then he shouted to King Yong:

"King Yong! Your incident has been exposed! We have obeyed His Majesty's order! We are here to arrest you and your gang! I advise you to cooperate obediently, otherwise it will be bad if I use my hands to hurt you! "

In ancient times, no matter what happened, one had to have a good reputation. Even if it was a rebellion, he had to shout the correct slogan!
Doing this not only confuses outsiders, but also confuses the soldiers under your command. After all, most people still long for peace and dare not rebel! Especially during this peaceful period!
King Yong almost jumped up when he heard this. The emperor had already chosen a day to confer him the crown prince. How could he rebel? He pointed at Rong Xian and cursed:

"How presumptuous! Rong Xian, you traitor! I am here to pay homage to Duke Wu Jing on behalf of the officials! How can you be a rebel! Everyone, don't believe Rong Xian, I think he is going to rebel!"

"I'm just following orders! I hope you won't embarrass yourself!"

As Rong Xian waved his hand, several soldiers in armor walked quickly towards King Yong, apparently trying to control King Yong!
General Pu was a loyal loyalist to Emperor Zhao Zhen. At this time, he stood up and said:
"Wait a minute! General Rong! You said you were following orders? Are you following orders from the officials? I hope you can bring out the official decrees! There is also your commander, General Gao, let him come to see me!"

The commander of the Imperial City Division, Gao Feng, was also a confidant of Emperor Zhao Zhen, and he once worked under General Pu!
So General Pu was not polite when he shouted at Gao Feng!

After hearing General Pu's question, Rong Xian said expressionlessly:

"Gao Feng disobeys the holy order! His Majesty has ordered him to be killed! It's probably impossible for General Pu to see him now!"

As for the official imperial edict, Rong Xianti didn't even mention it!

"What? Gao Feng is dead?"

General Pu was shocked at first, and then looked sad!

Gao Feng was almost trained by him! I was usually respectful and obedient to him, an old general, but I didn't expect him to be killed like this!

I just feel sorry for him. If the old general and Rong Xian were to work hard for Gao Feng's reward now, it would obviously not be possible!
They have already rebelled, so naturally only those with soldiers have the power!
Others, such as the British Duke, looked solemn when they heard this!

Apparently he saw something, but he didn't say anything!

When you are not sure, and there is no clear signal from the officials, staying put is the best option!

Seeing that King Yong had been controlled by this time, Rongxian took out another silk book and began to read,
"General Pu! General Li Mao! General Hu Guizhong... these people are all members of King Yong. Let me capture them all!"

These people in Rong Xiannian were either Emperor Zhao Zhen’s confidants, or they had secret relationships with King Yong!

The intention of rebellion is already quite obvious!
These people probably also knew that falling into Rongxian's hands would not end well, so they naturally rose up to resist!

It's a pity that although he is brave, how can he defeat the well-equipped soldiers?

Not to mention being outnumbered!

He was quickly suppressed, and several people were killed on the spot!

After catching all the remaining ones alive, Rongxian cupped his fists at the remaining people and said:

"King Yong has rebelled, and His Majesty is very worried! It is inevitable that some of King Yong's followers will also cause rebellion! In order to protect everyone's safety!

I hope all of you will stay in the Gu Mansion today! Don't move around! I will send soldiers from the Imperial City Division to protect you all! "

It sounds nice, but it’s actually house arrest!
The people present were naturally in an uproar!
But because there is a large army guarding it, and there are lessons learned from the past experience of those people who were caught and killed! No one dared to shout loudly!
As the representative of the nobles, the British Duke had to stand up and negotiate with Rongxian!

At this time, Xu Yaozu trembled and pulled Xu Wenhui's clothes and asked in a low voice:
"Hui'er! How can this be a good thing? Isn't this Rongxian going on a killing spree?"

Although Xu Wenhui looked down on Xu Yaozu's cheap father, he still comforted him in a low voice:
"Don't worry! It will be fine! Rongxian doesn't dare! They are still counting on these people to help stabilize the situation after the dust settles!
Besides, who doesn’t know that our family has a bad relationship with King Yong! No one will touch our house! "

When Xu Yaozu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up,
yes! My family is at odds with King Yong, so I am a loyal minister! Definitely not a member of King Yong’s party!
Everyone in Bianjing City knows this!
After thinking about this clearly, Xu Yaozu felt relieved and patted his chest happily.

"Hui'er, you have the foresight! I told you that King Yong is unreliable! He has great ambitions but little talent, and no ability at all. He is the only one who wants to be the prince. What a dream!"

Xu Wenhui couldn't help but rolled his eyes when he heard this. Just now you said you would bring me and King Yong to plead guilty. Why has it changed now? (End of chapter)
