Because Gao Yihuan sacrificed prisoners twice, Zhu Cihong's impression of him has changed a lot, and he even has some hope for Gao Yihuan, and because of this, when Zhu Cihong heard that Gao Yihuan annexed the Ming army and wanted to seize Wuchang, he was even more angry.

Although Zhu Cihong was a little skeptical about this matter, if what he said was true, then Gao Jingzhong had betrayed his trust.

In an imperial society, betraying the emperor's trust, or deceiving the emperor, is something that the emperor cannot tolerate.

Zhu Cihong originally thought that Gao Yihuan was different from Zuo Liangyu, but now it seems that there is no difference between the two, and even Gao Yihuan is a greater threat to him, and it is very likely to become Zhu Quanzhong of the Ming Dynasty.

After Zhu Cihong received the recital, he was extremely angry in his heart, so he hurriedly convened the cabinet to clarify this matter.

Although He Tengjiao is a scholar, he is different from Ma Ruan and Donglin, the latter two have huge power in the court, so big that the emperor does not dare to act rashly, and he has no foundation in the court.

The emperor said that he would remove him, or even kill him, but no one spoke for him, and he would not stab the hornet's nest, so the emperor's trust was of paramount importance to him.

He Tengjiao sweated on his forehead, hurriedly bowed, and explained: "Your Majesty, the Korean Duke is indeed appeased by the ministers, and the ministers also know a little about the Korean Prince, and feel that although he is contaminated with some banditry, he is by no means a monarch and father. In this matter, the minister thought that he couldn't listen to the words of Zuo Zhen's family, and he had to investigate clearly before he could make a judgment. ”

Helpless, Gao Yihuan is the person he appeased, and He Tengjiao has been tied to the warship by him. If Gao Yihuan is convicted of rebellion, He Tengjiao will also be implicated, so he can only come out and help Gao Yihuan wipe this ass.

Zhu Cihong was silent and didn't speak, he didn't want to see the wrong person, but Zuo Liangyu was unlikely to be groundless, and he must have been confronted by Gao Jingzhong.

At this time, Qian Qianyi coughed softly, and the scholar Wang Duo immediately stood up, "Your Majesty, the minister has to participate in He Tengjiao." ”

Wang Duo glanced at He Tengjiao, then knelt down and held up a notebook, "Your Majesty, the minister is not an official, he can't be impeached at will, let alone attack the scholar, but the minister thinks that this matter involves social comfort, so the minister can't help but say it." The minister heard that He Tengjiao appeased Gao Jingzhong at the beginning, but not as he said, it was he who turned the tide and used righteousness to influence Gao Jingzhong, so that Gao Jingzhong was obedient, but in fact, he made a command mistake and trapped the army to death, and was forced to sign an alliance with Gao Jingzhong under the city. Gao Jingzhong was able to return, not because his heart was towards me, but because he had been planning for a long time. He saw that Li Chuang's destruction was imminent, and he was afraid of our court's retaliation, so he was eager to surrender to our court. This is like Zhu Wen seeing that Huangchao was in a big situation and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. ”

Wang Duo said with an angry face: "Your Majesty, you can't ignore the lessons of the past, the minister thinks that Gao Jingzhong is Zhu Quanzhong of the Ming Dynasty, and He Tengjiao concealed the facts, deceived Your Majesty, and should be killed!" ”

As soon as Wang Duo finished speaking, Qian Qianyi and the other two scholars immediately knelt on the ground and seconded the proposal, and they also wanted to impeach He Tengjiao.

These words are really poisonous enough, that Zhu Wen participated in the rebellion of Huangchao, and successively captured Luoyang, Chang'an and other places, which greatly shook the dominance of the Tang Dynasty.

He was valued by the Yellow Nest, but when the Yellow Nest went downhill, he attached himself to the Tang Army, and jointly suppressed the Yellow Nest with Li Keyong and others, and was given the name Quanzhong by Tang Xizong, and served as the deputy envoy of the Henan Zhongxing Battalion.

After that, Zhu Wen took Henan as the center, tried his best to expand his power, and became the largest separatist force in the late Tang Dynasty, and led the army into Guanzhong in the first year of Tianfu, controlled the Tang Dynasty, killed Tang Zhaozong, and established Zhaozong's son Li Ji as emperor.

In the end, there was naturally another set of dramas that were messed up, Zhu Wen forced the Tang Emperor to give in, seized the throne, proclaimed the emperor on behalf of the Tang Dynasty, and established the Liang State.

Just this deed, how do you really look at Gao Yihuan, how can he look like Zhu Wen, can the emperor be afraid in his heart, can he not be afraid?

He Tengjiao was in a cold sweat, Donglin was going to kill him.

Seeing that Zhu Cihong's face sank again, if he didn't speak again, maybe he would really be killed.

He Tengjiao was in a hurry, he couldn't take care of much, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Qian Qianyi formed a party for personal gain, spread rumors, and deceived the saints, they are framing their subordinates, and they are also slandering Zhongliang. Your Majesty said bluntly that the Korean soldiers were strong and strong, and that he was afraid of our court's retaliation and surrendered to our court, which was obviously taken for granted. At that time, Huguang had no elite soldiers, if it wasn't for the ministers to influence him, Han Gong would be able to occupy the entire Huguang, and if Han Gong really had a rebellion, why bother to defend Yuzhou for His Majesty, defend Jingxiang, his army went directly south, who can stop me? Now that the matter has not been clarified, they slandered the Korean public as Zhu Quanzhong, isn't this to force the anti-Zhongliang and make people feel chilling? ”

When Ma Shiying heard this, he suddenly stood up, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter is not in a hurry, send someone to Huguang to investigate, and then make a decision!" ”

Wang Duo was about to speak immediately when he heard this, Zhu Cihong's face was gloomy, and he suddenly raised his hand, "I'm tired, let's retreat for the time being." ”

After Zhu Cihong finished speaking, he got up and left, and his mood was extremely bad. It is foreseeable that no matter what Zuo Liangyu said is true or not, Zhu Cihong's good impression of Gao Yihuan has disappeared because of today's incident.

Because Gao Yihuan's deeds are too similar to Zhu Wen, Zhu Cihong originally had a little doubt in his heart, but today someone directly pointed out that the seeds of suspicion have been planted and germinated quickly.

The eunuch said a word, and after several university scholars sent it off, Qian Qianyi left the imperial study with a cold and arrogant face and with the support of his comrades.

Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng also walked out, leaving He Tengjiao alone in the study.

After everyone left, He Tengjiao stood up in a trance, and said in his heart, this time he was miserable by Gao Yihuan.

At the same time, he quickly thought about Qian Qianyi's intentions in his heart, now that the Donglin Party is already passive, why do you want to provoke Gao Yihuan, is it not that the drunkard wants to drink, and wants to divert his attention?

He stood up and walked out physically and mentally exhausted, and just crossed the threshold, but an attendant stopped him, "Elder He Ge, Your Majesty is invited!" ”

Qian Qianyi and his entourage, after leaving the imperial study, did not disperse, but came to Qian Qianyi's mansion.

At this time, several people closed the doors and windows, and then sat on both sides, waiting for Qian Qianyi's orders.

"Today, Your Majesty has obviously been shaken, and has become suspicious of Gao Jingzhong." Qian Qianyi smiled: "As long as you are suspicious together, it will be easy to do next." This time, we must designate Gao Jingzhong as a traitor, take He Tengjiao down, cut off the emperor's arm, and at the same time attract the attention of the imperial court to Daohu Guang. ”

Qian Qianyi's real goal is actually not Gao Yihuan, Gao Yihuan is in Huguang, and there is not much to do. What he really has to deal with is the imperialist party that has been slowly rising recently.

Recently, the imperial party took the opportunity of the main battle faction to gain the upper hand, and began to pay taxes to Jiangnan, preparing to start a war with the Dongyu.

Therefore, he took advantage of the conflict between Gao Yihuan and Zuo Liangyu to divert the attention of the main battle faction, and at the same time dealt with He Tengjiao, who supported the imperial party.

Wang Duo said: "Ma Shiying made a move today, what if Your Majesty sends someone to Huguang to investigate?" ”

Qian Qianyi sneered: "First of all, let our people pay attention, we must not let Gao Jingzhong's messenger come to Nanjing. However, they have gone to Jiangbei several times, and this time they may also go to Jiangbei, which is not an area under our control, so I am going to send a military report from Wuchang tomorrow to force the imperial court to send troops to rescue, as long as the fight starts, Gao Jingzhong is a thief, do you still need to investigate? ”

Wang Duo said: "In this way, even if the imperial court cleans up the commercial tax, the finance will have to be tilted towards Zuozhen, which just strengthens our strength." ”
