251 Glory

Everyone present could hear the confession of Mrs. Gu just now. Every word and sentence on the note was aggressive, as if he wanted to kill Gu Yuan.

It is conceivable that if Gu Yuan was convicted, the reputation of the eldest prince would inevitably be flawed from now on. Both the people and the court officials would question whether Gu Yuan was acting on the order of the eldest prince.

The eldest prince is the emperor's only son, and anyone knows that the emperor will make him the crown prince sooner or later.

Once the eldest prince has this stain, those high-ranking families can use this as a reason to oppose the emperor's establishment of a crown prince.

His heart is simply sinister.

The more the censors thought about it, the more indignant they became. The sharp eyes shot at Gu Jian like countless sharp arrows, unable to hide their contempt and contempt.

The Dingyuan Hou Mansion is obviously a nobleman, but it is necessary to favor those aristocratic families, without any stance or principle.

Whenever they think of the aristocratic family secretly instigating the censor to hit the wall, they doubled their disgust towards the aristocratic family and were very disdainful of Gu Jian's behavior.

Seeing that the situation was showing one-sided momentum, Shoufu Xiao was even more reluctant to stand up. He raised his hand irritably to dust the dust on his robe and made a decision in his heart.

It’s useless to keep the Dingyuan Marquis’ Mansion, why bother him to make him look sexy?

Gu Jian waited for a while, but couldn't wait for the rescue from the aristocratic family. He felt like a bucket of ice water was poured on his head, and his whole body was covered in cold heat.

He persuaded his mother to impeach Gu Yuan for King Kang, but now something happened to their Gu family. These aristocratic families were like they were throwing their burdens, and they couldn't wait to separate themselves from the Gu family!

It's really chilling!

Gu Jian was fighting all over, and his eyes turned to look at the emperor in panic, his neck was so stiff that his bones clattered.

The emperor by the window was still silent. Under the backlight, the emperor's facial features seemed a little blurred and his eyes were dark.

The emperor slowly picked up a white piece from the chess box, as if he was thinking and hesitating.

The more the emperor didn't speak, the more scared Gu Jian became, and his whole body felt numb.

No one spoke to Gu's family, and no one spoke to the aristocratic families. They heard the envoys talking nonstop, wishing to take off Gu Jian's robe embroidered with a kirin patch on his body now.

The sounds could no longer be heard in Gu Jian's ears, and his ears were buzzing, and he just stared at the emperor in a daze, his eyes began to dry and sore.

I don’t know how long it took, but the emperor who had eaten a few sips of tea said slowly: “Gu Jian falsely accused him of deceiving the emperor, and the evidence of his crime was conclusive. I think Gu Yao, and Gu Xuan once made unparalleled military achievements for Dajing…”

Hearing this, Gu Jian's almost desperate eyes lit up slightly, his eyes widened, thinking that there was still room for maneuver.

Bang!

Gu Jian's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest. The next moment, the emperor's high-ranking gaze met him, and he finished speaking without anger: "I will just give up the blame, and I will only dismiss Gu Jian and take the title."

This sentence is like a thunder thunder blew in Gu Jian's ears.

Gu Jian's eyes turned black and he almost fainted without losing his strength. It was as if he had swallowed bitter gallbladder. A bitter bitter taste spread from his mouth to his heart.

The title is his. He worked diligently for eight years before the Marquis' Mansion improved. How could his title be taken away?!

It shouldn't be!

This shouldn't be the case!

This thought echoed repeatedly in Gu Jian's mind.

His eyes turned red, and his intestines were blue: they shouldn't have posted this apology today.

And mother...

They clearly agreed that she would kneel at the palace gate and leave for a while. Why did she say anything wrong with Gu Yuan about her concubine? Otherwise, how could the matter develop to this irreversible level now!

Thinking of this, Gu Jian's eyes when he looked at Mrs. Gu, a hint of resentment appeared in his eyes, and his eyes gradually became gloomy and violent.

"Your Majesty is fair!" Censor Han said loudly first.

Other censors also agreed, praising the emperor's fairness and talking about old feelings, and indeed being benevolent monarchs.

In the minds of these censors, Gu Jian said nonsense in front of the imperial court that it was a crime of deceiving the emperor and also a loss of manners in front of the imperial court. He should be exiled to show great punishment.

But the emperor finally dismissed Gu Jian for his great contributions to the court because of the great contributions made by the Gu family's ancestors. This was also the emperor's kindness to his subordinates.

The emperor glanced at everyone, raised his lips slightly, and then fell a white piece on the chessboard, and ate four black pieces. He felt that his steps were really wonderful.

He raised his eyebrows and gave a wink at Chu Yi sitting opposite him.

Chu Yi smiled slightly, and the warm sunlight coated his fair face and apricot yellow robe with a light layer of gold foil, reflecting his radiance.

He calmly took another move and smiled: "Father, Gu Yuan has made contributions to protecting the emperor..."

The emperor's heart moved, his bright eyes rolled slightly, and said, "This title..."

The emperor wanted to say that this title was better than to Gu Yuan, but after saying a few words, Chu Yi was just rightly interrupted: "This title is a gift from Emperor Taizu to the Gu family. Although the Gu family cannot afford the title now."

Speaking of this, Chu Yi's eyes gently swept over Gu Jian, who was sweating profusely, of course, saying that Gu Jian could not afford the title.

His eyes finally fell on Gu Yuan's tall figure, full of smiles, "But if the younger generations have the style of being an ancestor and have made outstanding contributions to the country and the people, the title of Dingyuan Marquis can still be returned to the Gu family."

The Dukes and Majesties of the Dajing Dynasty were rare. They were all heroes who had the meritorious service of the founding of the country. Taizu said: "Those who are not military meritorious and the country are not allowed to be awarded titles." Therefore, after the founding of the country, military generals made contributions, at most they would be awarded an earl.

During the fifty years since the founding of the Dajing Dynasty, three marquises and two magistrates had been seized, and only a few nobles had been deprived of titles.

"What do you think about Father?" Chu Yi asked the emperor with a smile.

The emperor knew his son's wishes, laughed loudly, and said cheerfully: "Okay, that's great!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness," Gu Yuan said with a serious fist, his eyes shining like the warm sun outside the window, because Chu Yi's words just now were surging.

He still remembers one day when he was over four years old, his father asked him with a smile: "Brother Yuan, do you want Daddy's Longyuan Sword when you grow up?"

At that time, he nodded vigorously and said, "I want to!"

The father asked again: "What would you do if the sword was taken away or even destroyed before daddy could pass it to you?"

For him, who was fashionable and young, his father's sword match was the best sword in the world. He was so sad that he cried loudly.

Dad told him the story of the Longyuan Sword. The Longyuan Sword was a famous sword seized by Dad and Guan when he went to the northwest to suppress bandits that year. It was cast by Qinghezi, a famous sword-casting master of the previous dynasty. It blew hair and cut off hair and cut iron like mud.

"Brother Yuan, there are more than one sword in this world than the Longyuan sword. Are you willing to find a better sword to honor your father?" Finally, Dad asked him jokingly.

At that time, he wiped away his tears with his sleeves and said with a full breath: "I do!"

He wants, and he can.

Even if the Longyuan Sword is gone, even if the title of the Marquis' Mansion is gone, it's okay.

He still has these hands and feet, and he can rely on himself to earn this glory back!

"..." The clan leader's face was as white as earth, and at this moment, a little hope ignited in his gray eyes.

With the eldest prince's emphasis on Gu Yuan, he will definitely use him, which also means that their Gu family still has hope of regaining the glory and glory of the past.

The imperial envoys present were a little surprised, and there was a little more praise and respect when they looked at Chu Yi's eyes.

They originally thought that the eldest prince was willing to support Gu Yuan and would take advantage of Gu Jian's opportunity to make mistakes and propose to give the title to Gu Yuan. For example, because the Yongxin Bo Mansion made a big mistake, Emperor Taizu decided to give the title to the second wife, who was the second brother of the Yongxin Bo, who was the legitimate brother of the Yongxin Bo.

This practice is also common when it comes to the achievements of the ancestors of noble families.

However, in the matter of Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion, Gu Yuan was bad because he had a father like Gu Ce.

Although Gu Yuan had made great contributions to rescue the enemy, his minor contribution was not enough to make up for Gu Ce's crime of surrendering the enemy. It was natural for the father to bear the son to bear the crime.

Now Gu Yuan has no merits and no virtue, and even if the emperor and the eldest prince are willing to give him the title, it is not right. They will never sit idly by and insist on impeaching him on the spot!

What they didn't expect was that the eldest prince was so clear about rewards and punishments, and did not force the title of Dingyuan Marquis to Gu Yuan because Gu Yuan was his man so as to support his connections.

It was not like the late emperor who took it away as he said it, but instead he thought about the affection of the Gu family's ancestors, leaving a breath of thought for the Gu family.

The eldest prince really has the style of a wise ruler!

The censors praised the emperor and the eldest prince and his son, and even Mu Sheng echoed intriguedly, with the atmosphere warm and a harmonious relationship between the king and the minister.

Shoufu Xiao, Feng She and others all had gloomy faces, while Mrs. Gu, Gu Jian and his son seemed to have lost half of their three souls and seven spirits.

Especially Mrs. Gu, the continuous blows seemed to add insult to injury, making her spirit close to collapse.

Her heart continued to cramp, her limbs were cold and she couldn't catch her breath, her whole body trembled violently, and only two thoughts were left in her mind: she became the second wife and the title of the Marquis' Mansion was gone.

The things she pursued for most of her life were gone in an instant, all of them were gone!

Then what is her purpose in this life?!

The elder sister died and Gu Xuan died. Only she was still alive. She was the winner, right? But why did she end up with nothing in her plan for half a lifetime?!

God is unfair!

God is unfair!
