In fact, Dugu Jialuo had been listening to politics in the side hall next door, and she heard every word spoken here.
At the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, Empress Dugu also participated in court meetings, but at that time she often had disagreements with her husband, so she retreated behind the scenes and listened to politics in the side hall.
Later, it would come sometimes and sometimes not.
As soon as Dugu Jialuo came in, the hall was quiet.
Gao Jiong panicked.
He Ruobi was happy because he guessed that Gao Jiong was going to be punished.
Sure enough, since Dugu Jialuo's eyes came in, he only fell on Gao Jiong, and his face was gloomy.
She was heartbroken,
He had obviously hinted at Gao Jiong, but the other party chose another path that went against him.
Yes, he is already Shangshu Zuopushe, the head of hundreds of officials. With his wings stiffened, he no longer needs to listen to my words.
Dugu Jialuo slowly came to the front of the hall and said with a smile:
"About the year before last, when I suddenly heard that Mrs. Zuopushe passed away, I said to the Supreme Lord: Gao Pushe lost his wife in his later years, how could your Majesty not marry him? So the Supreme Lord called you into the palace and planned to match you with another one. A good wife to take care of her in her old age.”
"But Zuopushe said at that time: I am already old. Apart from government affairs, I can only eat fast, chant Buddha's name, and pray for my deceased wife. As a result, within two months, Zuopushe's concubine gave birth to a son for you."
Gao Qiao lowered his head deeply, his whole back bent, and he did not dare to say a word.
He knew in his heart that Dugu Jialuo was bringing up old things again, which meant he was drawing a clear line with him.
Dugu Jialuo continued: "When the Supreme Master heard about it, he was very happy and thought it was a happy event that Zuopu She had a son in his old age. However, I was not happy because I never knew that you, Gao Qiu, had a concubine? "
As he spoke, Dugu Jialuo slowly walked around the hall, glanced at the officials and said:
"I do not approve of concubinage, but I did not say that concubinage is not allowed. Zuo Pushe has been with me for more than twenty years. I treat you better than the Dugu family. People often say: You, Gao Jiong, are my great Sui concubines. I have treated you so well, how could you bear to deceive me?"
"Holy Queen!"
Gao Jun knelt down with a plop, and said with tears: "Wei Chen is just a retainer. He has followed the Second Saint for half his life, and he only got to be where he is today because of the favor of the Second Saint. We can learn from the sun and the moon about our loyalty to the Holy Queen."
For a moment, the hall was silent.
Everyone could tell that Dugu Jialuo's tone was very serious. This was something that had never happened before.
Moreover, it is still an old story. It was not mentioned before, so why bring it up now?
No one present understood the real meaning behind Dugu Jialuo's words "Why did you lie to me?", only Gao Jiong knew it.
He has never deceived Dugu Jialuo, and he has always regarded Dugu Jialuo as his leader for the past twenty years. It can be said that the reason why Gao Jun was able to control hundreds of officials was due to the full support of Queen Dugu behind him.
In this case, unless you are heartbroken and crazy, how can you voluntarily abandon the towering tree of Queen Dugu?
Of course Gao Jiong was not crazy. He had already seen that Queen Dugu had the idea of Yichu.
And the reason why he opposed it was not just because of his marriage relationship with the prince, but because he knew in his heart that the replacement of the throne was a major event that would shake the country. At the most, it would shake the country's foundation, and at the least, there would be internal fighting between the government and the public. However, it has only been since the founding of the Sui Dynasty. But twenty years later, it cannot withstand such a torment.
But Gao Jun also knew in his heart that no one would understand his painstaking efforts. Others would think that he was afraid of losing the big tree in the East Palace.
Haha... I have become a powerful minister, and power is nothing more than a floating cloud to me.
At this time, Prince Yang Yong saw that something was wrong, and was about to plead for Gao Jiong, but was overtaken by Jin Wang Yang Guang who took advantage of every opportunity.
I saw Yang Guang kneeling on the ground and said: "The Duke of Qi is loyal to the emperor and the country. He has been loyal to the emperor and the country for twenty years. It is known to the whole world that his loyalty to his father, emperor and mother is never inferior to that of his sons and ministers. Father, emperor and empress know this clearly."
Prince Yang Yong was stunned...how could he speak for Gao Jiong?
And what about Yang Jian? Still silent, because he knew that Dugu Jialuo still had something to say, and if he spoke at this time, he would disrupt the queen's next words.
Sure enough, Dugu Jialuo sighed and said quietly:
"Although I was angry back then, I also understood in my heart that the reason why you hid it was because you were afraid of upsetting me. So I felt relieved at that time and ordered the chamberlain to bring the congratulatory gifts from the Supreme Lord and me to your house to congratulate you. Gao Jiong is delighted to have a son."
"I can understand your joy of having a son, why can't you understand the love between my mother and my son today?"
Gao Jiong put his face to the ground, cried loudly, and kept saying that he was guilty.
He Ruobi suddenly stood up and said:
"The King of Jin came back to the capital to express his condolences to the Crown Princess. He led his troops north just after the funeral. Now he has just returned from the front with a great victory. It is the time to share the human relationship between mother and son. It is really treason to talk about the vassal affairs at this moment. Human ethics.”
"King Qin has passed away recently, and the Holy Queen is experiencing the pain of losing her son. At this time, she should have a son at her knees to soothe her pain. I think it is not appropriate for King Jin to return to Jiangdu at this time."
He Ruobi understood Dugu Jialuo's meaning, so he climbed up along the pole. He was not looking towards Yang Guang, but towards whoever was useful to him.
When Gao Jiong lost power, it was the time when he was fighting for power. How could he not seize this God-given opportunity?
Yang Su also hurriedly echoed: "Jin Wang Renxiao, even if he is on the border, he still always thinks about the two saints. Now that he has just returned, it is not appropriate to discuss the matter of returning south."
Dugu Jialuo said, "Let's discuss it," and then left.
What else is there to discuss? People have given you the answer, why don’t you just copy it?
So Su Wei, Niu Hong, Yang Xiong and others also rushed out to support Yang Guang.
Now that everyone had reached a conclusion, Yang Jian opened his mouth and looked at Jin Wang Yang Guang and said:
"Dugu Gong is the hero of the founding of the country. I regard him as a humerus, so I won't help him up quickly."
"yes."
Yang Guang hurriedly walked over and helped Gao Jun up: "Don't be sad, Zuo Pushe. The Queen Mother will never really blame you for trivial matters."
Gao Jiao nodded expressionlessly.
Among the people present, no one was more embarrassed than the prince Yang Yong. Gao Jiong and him were related by marriage, but he did not have time to speak for each other.
Yang Yong looked at the ministers in the palace with dull eyes and a dazed expression. He had never felt lonely like he did today, which gave him a deep sense of crisis.
.......
That night, Yang Yinjiang came to Jin Prince's Mansion to find Yang Ming. This time she came openly.
Ever since Yang Ming took Shi Wansui to the Yang Mansion that day, Yang Su no longer prevented Yang Yinjiang from interacting with him.
So Yang Yinjiang no longer had to secretly meet with Yang Ming in private, and could even participate in the dinner at the palace.
After all, she is Yang Su's granddaughter. Concubine Xiao is very thoughtful and will naturally entertain her well.
At the dinner, the sociable Yang Yinjiang kept talking, sometimes talking to Yang Zhao, and sometimes joking with Yang Jian and Yang Chan.
Concubine Xiao also liked this child very much, and she kept wondering in her heart, how could such a stupid father have such a clever daughter?
It's a pity that this girl, Ke Fu, would be great if she could not be Zhao'er's concubine.
After the dinner, Yang Ming caught Yang Yinjiang's vague look, so he took the initiative to go out to see her off.
After getting into the carriage, Yang Yinjiang whispered:
"Do you still remember the maid in my house? Zhang Chuchen."
"It's only been a few days, how can I forget?" Yang Ming said: "How can I mention her properly?"
Yang Yinjiang narrowed her eyes and smiled: "She ran away, using the excuse of going shopping, and then never came back."
Hong Fu finally eloped? Yang Ming was surprised and said: "Didn't Yang Su imprison her and discipline her?"
Yang Yinjiang smiled and said: "Long live her assassination. In my grandfather's heart, she undoubtedly gave him a sigh of relief. Not to mention admonishing him, she also rewarded him with twenty gold coins."
And this thing? Yang Ming was stunned...
