Seeing how cowardly this guy was, Huang Qiong couldn't help but shake his head. If Duan Jin were here and saw such a scene, he would probably be so angry that he would kick this guy directly. Compared with Duan Suping who saw that he was neither humble nor arrogant, he was not even half as good. Huang Qiong really didn't understand. No matter from Duan Jin's words or from the words of Dali officials and people, Duan Jin's imperial brother was not as good as the founder of Dali, but he was still considered wise and mighty. Why, after so many choices, did you choose such a loser?
Logically speaking, since this guy is the eldest son of Duan Jin's imperial brother, and his biological mother was born in Shanchanhou Mansion, he must have been trained painstakingly since childhood. Even if he didn't inherit the wisdom and martial arts of his ancestors, he wouldn't be so useless. Even if you are in a foreign country, you must at least retain some dignity as a king. But looking at it now, he is incompetent in writing and martial arts, and even has little backbone. I really don't know why Duan Jin's imperial brother chose him as his heir.
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty finally chose Li Zhi, which seemed cowardly on the surface. But in reality, he is a master at pretending to be a pig and getting his own way. The Guanlong Xungui Group, represented by his uncle, got rid of his biggest and once biggest competitor, his brother Wu Wang Li Ge. He also used his wife to turn around and get rid of his uncle who had supported him in his rise to power but had wielded power, and completely dismantled the Guanlong Xungui Group. Even in the face of stroke and hemiplegia, he still firmly held the power of the government in his hands.
Even the only empress in history, Emperor Zetian, who had extremely vicious methods, did not dare to have the slightest ambition when he was alive and controlled her honestly. Even, to a certain extent, he took a lot of blame for him. Li Zhi's cowardice is just a disguise. It was precisely this kind of disguise that made the struggle to seize the throne extremely cruel in all dynasties. The former Tang Dynasty, where almost no prince could successfully succeed to the throne, finally had the last laugh. The so-called loyalty, filial piety and benevolence shown by him are nothing more than a disguise.
After taking the throne, he turned around and got rid of several of his brothers, and also put the blame on Changsun Wuji. If he was really loyal, he would still kill his brother without mercy even though he knew that Li Ge was impossible or did not have the strength to rebel. Loyalty and cowardice are just illusions he uses to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger. In fact, he was the first master of the imperial mind in the former Tang Dynasty. If it had not been for later, in order to rehabilitate Li Ge, he would not pardon his biological son, but instead forcibly adopt someone else's son to Li Ge.
If there is a trace of truth, I am afraid that everyone in the world will be deceived by him. People's cowardice is first to avoid disaster, and then to deliberately pretend to compete for position. But the master in front of him is really cowardly. As the king of a country, when the powerful ministers have become unscrupulous and do not take the Dali royal family into consideration, not only do they not think about rectification, but they listen to the slander and cut off the Ailao Mountain line, cutting off more than 100 people in the Dali Kingdom. year barrier. He also created a mess in the government.
And in front of him, he was placed in such a situation. If he were his father, he would not be able to close his eyes until he died. Seeing how cowardly this guy was, Huang Qiong lost all interest. He waved his hand, indicating that the etiquette officer could read the edict. And in this edict, this guy was listed with thirty-one major sins and one hundred and eight minor sins. Da Qi sent troops to the Dali Kingdom, deposed his throne, and appointed his younger brother as the king of Dali. It was really forced to do something for heaven, and he couldn't bear to see the country of his in-laws perish.
At the end, it means Daqi is generous and generous. Remembering that during his father's reign, he was respectful to Da Qi. What's more, this dynasty and Dali are still related by marriage. As his uncle, the emperor is still tolerant and cannot bear to kill him. He also wanted to take his wife's place on her journey and fulfill his filial piety for his aunt. As his uncle, the emperor was somewhat moved. Therefore, after several considerations, he was canonized as General Feng'en, and his wife Gao Mei was canonized as a third-grade lady. And granted titles and official positions to the kings respectively.
When the imperial edict, which contained more than a thousand words, came down, the official was breathless as he read it. Duan Sulian, who was kneeling below, was confused. He had been wondering whether he had really done so many wrong things during his reign. The palace that I have indeed expanded is not as big as the palace in Daqi. The palaces in Dali and Dali combined are not as big as a corner of this palace. During his reign, he did increase some taxes, but those taxes were very small. How can one be called a common people, and be punished by extortionate taxes?
Besides, if you want to rectify the Ailaoshan clan by yourself, that is an internal matter of the Dali Kingdom. What the hell are you doing to them? Da Qi himself is the most repulsive to Jianghu people. He uses his confidants to control Ailao Mountain. Who are they qualified to control? Although I am not good at writing and martial arts, and I have not been able to curb the expansion of the Gao family, I still cannot be as heinous as the imperial edict states. What's more, most of the above crimes were committed by Shan Chanhou, so what does it have to do with him? Da Qi is not unaware of the internal situation in Dali Kingdom.
The king himself may not even be able to intimidate those noble families more than Da Qi. Those charges in the imperial edict are really serious. Why bother? But under the roof, even though most of the charges were imposed on him, Duan Sulian still didn't dare to defend himself. Afraid of offending the uncle in front of him, he clicked himself. When Gao Zhisheng died, the tragic scene was still swaying in front of him to this day. I don't want to do it again in a decent way.
Although these crimes made him extremely embarrassed, he still knelt on the ground honestly in the face of life and death. In fact, these crimes were not the most embarrassing for him. What made him even more embarrassed was that he was only granted the title of General Feng'en, which was equivalent to a fourth-rank official, and he was still from the fourth rank. But his wife and sister were both sealed to the third rank. Even if it was just the treatment, it still made Duan Sulian feel a little hurt. Co-author: Is it still an honor for me to live to this day and be awarded a small title?
But in my heart, I scolded Huang Qiong for these so-called kindnesses. Duan Sulian still understands the reason why people have to bow their heads when they are under the eaves. Even though he was unhappy in his heart, he still thanked him honestly. Because he knows that he is still alive now, which is the greatest tolerance of this uncle. If Duan Jin, the aunt, was not here, the uncle would still give him some face. I'm afraid what's waiting for me is either a glass of poisonous wine or three feet of white silk.
Since ancient times, how many good endings have there been for the kings of subjugated countries? Although he is from Dali, he is also familiar with the history books of the Central Plains. For those emperors in the Central Plains, their methods of dealing with the subjugated king were still clear. Even he knew clearly that he might not be able to leave this huge city in this life. Even if you have nothing to do, it is best not to take a step out of your own mansion. As for whether the Dali Kingdom was destroyed or not, it was the same to Duan Sulian. What's more, he thought that he had been robbed to the capital of Qi.
The country of Dali is in ruins. Although he dare not show it on his face now, in his heart, he is still the monarch of Dali Kingdom. As for Duan Suping, the current king of Dali, he will never admit it. He firmly believes that he is Dali Country, and Dali Country is himself. Now that he has reached this point, he has fallen from the king of a country to a small fourth-rank general in Daqi. The Dali Kingdom is tantamount to subjugation. So no matter how angry I feel, I can still only endure it.
As for Gao Mei still staying in the palace to serve Concubine Duan for a while, he didn't care anymore. Anyway, that woman was originally sent by the Gao family to monitor him. Now that Dali has suffered such a disaster because of the Gao family, it can be considered that it has perished in the hands of the Gao family. It is thanks to the Gao family that I am where I am today. He would not even care about Gao Mei's life or death. Anyway, Gao Mei has been his wife in name only for these years. Life or death has nothing to do with him.
As for now, I would be happiest if this uncle allowed me to divorce my wife. What's more, as a majestic king of a country, he was only given a fourth-grade title. The woman who caused the Dali country to fall was given a third-grade imperial edict just because she served their noble concubine, which made Duan Sulian feel even more dissatisfied. He even doubted for a moment that the woman he hadn't seen for so long was not serving Duan Jin, but the master in front of him. That woman looked like a beauty who was a disaster.
This guy secretly criticized Gao Mei for betraying herself to get a third-grade imperial edict. But in terms of expression, he didn't dare to show any signs of it. He also knew that even if it happened, there was nothing he could do about it. The concubines who lost their country and were favored by the new master were a common thing in the past dynasties. After hearing that Huang Qiong asked Gao Mei to stay in the palace for a while to accompany Concubine Duan, who was about to give birth, to ease Concubine Duan's homesickness, Mokouzi agreed. There was even a hint of flattery in his expression.
And looking at this guy, he had a flattering look on his face. All the civil and military officials present, even Wang Zong of Dali Kingdom, all shook their heads with disdain. Secretly sighing, it would be strange for the country of Dali to survive with such a leader in power. Among the Daqi officials present, there were some who were familiar with Huang Qiong's preferences in certain aspects, but their eyes changed when they looked at Duan Sulian. Some are contemptuous, some are pitiful, and some are even more disgusting. They all vaguely guessed why the Lord kept his wife in the palace.
Why serve Duan Guifei? I am afraid that nine times out of ten, you are serving that master. This guy's hat on his head has changed colors. He doesn't know it yet, but he looks a little happy. Fortunately, no matter how bad that woman is, she is still your wife, and she was once the queen of Dali. Now that you have become the emperor's bedfellow, why are you not angry and asking for his release? Why are you so happy? Aren't you, the King of Dali, like that huge living tortoise?
Could it be that your kid was able to save his life and became a fourth-grade Fengen general, just by using what your wife had. Thinking of this, some people looked at this guy with more and more mischievous eyes. Even King Yong, with a flattering look when he saw this guy, said that His Majesty and Concubine Duan would keep their wives as long as they were willing to. If it hadn't been for this big court meeting, I would have almost laughed out loud on the spot. In other words, King Shen was somewhat kind and stopped King Yong from laughing.
How could these people know that Duan Sulian wished he could never see Gao Mei again for the rest of his life? Not to mention just staying in the palace to serve the noble concubine for a period of time, even if he stayed in the palace for the rest of his life, he would not miss her at all. It was truly heartless and unjust. Fortunately, in order to protect him, Gao Mei once knelt in front of Huang Qiong and Duan Jin, and her head bled. And looking at this guy, with a flattering look on his face, he seemed not ashamed, but proud.
Although I can guess that this guy is probably faking it in all likelihood. But Huang Qiong was still extremely disgusted in his heart. He was immediately taken out. For Huang Qiong, it was just for Duan Jin's sake. Even though he knew he was pretending but he didn't return the favor, he wanted to see the descendants of the Duan family and had fallen to such a level.
