Four hundred and seventeenth chapter final decision
Gao Anxiang came out and interceded for him, saying, "Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to show mercy. Although Gao Langzhong's words are uncomfortable, he is just worried about the deterioration of the situation between our country and Da Mang, and has no different intentions."
"I beg your majesty to please forgive Gao Langzhong, who has been dedicated and loyal over the years, and I would like to assure your majesty that Gao Langzhong will never talk nonsense again."
At the same time, Gao Jian'an also begged for mercy with tears and snot in his nose, and kept saying, "Your Majesty, I know that I have sinned, and please forgive me. Your Majesty, I know that I was wrong..."
Unexpectedly, Emperor Qianxi didn't listen at all. He shouted loudly and said angrily, "How outrageous. If anyone dares to plead for mercy today, he will be guilty of the same crime! I want to see who dares to plead for him?"
As soon as these words came out, Gao Anxiang, his camp, or all the officials who wanted to calm the matter fell silent.
These people are all excellent people. When their interests are at stake, they will never harm their own interests and intercede for Gao Jian'an.
To say that Emperor Qianxi was angry, it was also because of a series of things that happened during this period. All the ministers below asked him to calm down.
But in fact, they still pushed Emperor Qianxi into a panic. Faced with the aggressive envoy Da Mang, Emperor Qianxi finally couldn't help but fight with swords.
Of course, under the emperor's feet, Da Mang's envoys killed people again and again. This was tantamount to openly provoking Emperor Qianxi's majesty, and did not take Daqian's laws and regulations seriously.
The envoy of Da Mang acted like this. If Emperor Xi did not execute him, how could he give an explanation to the people and still make a bright and clear sky?
If he does nothing, he will surely lose the support of the people.
Deep down in his heart, Emperor Qianxi did not want to kill the envoy of Da Mang, because such an action might have unpredictable consequences, but with the arrow on the string, he had to shoot.
What's more, these ministers of Jinluan Palace don't stand by Daqian and don't think about the people of Daqian when something goes wrong. They dare to speak out to excuse Damang's traitors. Their intentions are to be punished!
If Emperor Qianxi did not deal with Gao Jian'an, then after Gao Jian'an, he would definitely go to court one after another, begging Emperor Qianxi to reduce big things to small matters, and turn small things into small matters. This is what Emperor Qianxi can't tolerate the most.
As a minister, it is really taboo to try to influence his decision!
Whether Emperor Qianxi wanted to unite the people's hearts or restore his authority, this time, he did not choose to retreat and had no hesitation.
I just don’t know if his choice can stabilize the situation he is currently facing.
After all, there are still 20,000 cavalrymen stationed on the border of Binh Duong Province who are looking at them eagerly.
Emperor Qianxi pointed at Gao Jian'an. No matter how much he cried miserably, he remained expressionless and said cold-bloodedly, "Come here, take off his black gauze hat and official uniform...and then drag him out and execute him."
The two Imperial Guardsmen who walked in outside the palace held down Gao Jian'an who was almost going crazy and replied decisively, "Yes!"
Gao Jian'an was finally executed. Perhaps he never thought that he would lose his official position just because of his remarks.
Originally he just wanted to show off, but who would have expected that this would be the outcome. If he was given another chance, Gao Jian'an might not dare to say another word even if he blocked his mouth.
Unfortunately, there is no hypothesis.
After a while, bursts of heartbreaking sounds came from outside the Jinluan Palace, which made everyone tremble with fear. Faced with Emperor Qianxi's rage, they finally chose to remain silent.
Ling Yun in the corner was thinking how ruthless these forbidden troops were! Hearing Gao Jian'an's heart-rending cry of pain made his bones run cold and his heart beat with fear.
I thought to myself, if Gao Jian'an doesn't die after taking down these 50 pieces, he will have to lie in bed for several months.
Gradually, Gao Jian'an's howling ceased, and calm began to return to the palace. At this moment, no one dared to speak out anymore.
Emperor Qianxi looked down at Gao Anxiang and said in a deep voice, "Gao Anxiang, as the Minister of Punishment, please tell me how to deal with this matter?"
Gao Anxiang secretly complained in his heart that his subordinate had just been executed, but Emperor Qianxi still wanted him to stand up and speak. This was a sign that he planned to take action on him.
If nothing else goes wrong, if he speaks for Da Mang again, he will definitely be punished by Emperor Qianxi. He probably won't be beaten, but he will definitely not give up!
So he could only bite the bullet and said, "Your Majesty, I thought that the envoys of Da Mang were committing murders in the streets one after another and killing the people of our country. They should be punished for their crimes!"
"coax!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar!
Everyone in Gao Anxiang's group looked at him in surprise. This was a sign that Emperor Qianxi was going to bow his head. Obviously at this moment, even Gao Anxiang did not dare to excuse the envoy of Da Mang.
His crime deserves to be punished. Is this a sign that he wants to turn against Da Mang?
For a time, there was a lot of discussion in the Jinluan Palace. Rather than talking about it, it was more like people were panicking. After all, if there was a war with Da Mang, no one was sure what would happen.
Emperor Qianxi paid no attention to the discussions of the ministers and directly said, "Okay, in that case, Yang Ting and you will send people to arrest Da Mang's murderer in prison. He will be executed after three days. The Minister of Punishment will be fully responsible."
After saying that, Emperor Qianxi stood up and said, "Dismiss the dynasty!"
The officials looked around and wanted to say something, but Emperor Qianxi left directly without giving them a chance to speak.
Helpless, all the officials could only shout, "Long live my emperor!"
Emperor Qianxi returned to the imperial study, and a moment later, Qiu Yingcai and Wang Yangyu came one after another.
As soon as Wang Yangyu came in, he couldn't wait to say, "Your Majesty, I would like to know, has your Majesty really decided?"
Just now in the court, Emperor Qianxi was furious. He did not speak. Emperor Qianxi would not tolerate their opposition, otherwise there would only be one end.
It's different now. In the imperial study, even if Emperor Qianxi is angry, Wang Yangyu still has to speak out his heart.
Emperor Qianxi glared, his eyes shot out a cold light, and he said coldly, "Is it possible that Sir Zuo Xiang is trying to persuade me to settle the matter again?"
With Emperor Qianxi's attitude, it seemed that he really didn't want to let the messenger go, otherwise he wouldn't be so tough.
At this moment, Emperor Qianxi was thinking in his heart that if Wang Yangyu was advising him to minimize the big things, he wouldn't mind changing someone to be the left prime minister. After all, he still likes to be obedient compared to capable people.
Wang Yangyu shook his head and said wisely, "I don't dare! Now that your Majesty has made a decision, I'm afraid you might have some plans if you call me and the Minister of War over now."
After hearing that Wang Yangyu had no objection, Emperor Qianxi's expression softened a lot and he discussed, "Yes! Exactly. At the same time, I plan to send 20,000 elite troops to support Pingyang. What do you think?"
Wang Yangyu replied, "Your Majesty, I have no objection."
Now that Emperor Qianxi has decided, as a minister, he will not persuade him, otherwise he will definitely arouse Emperor Qianxi's anger.
Hearing Wang Yangyu's words, Emperor Qianxi was slightly startled, but he didn't say anything more. Instead, he looked at Qiu Yingcai and asked, "Where is Qiu Aiqing?"
Qiu Yingcai thought for a moment and replied directly, "Your Majesty, I feel that as long as there is military pay to support the departure of the detachment, there will be no problem."
Emperor Qianxi clapped his hands hard and said loudly, "Okay! Since neither of the two adults has objections, it has been decided that the salary for the army's departure will be allocated from my internal funds, and other matters concerning the dispatch of troops will be coordinated by Qiu Aiqing."
