Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

Gao Tianzhi is still looking for Gao Xiangyu and Nizi.

But the amazing thing is that even though he searched the palace, he couldn't find it.

At the same time, the flames of the burning palace had slowly dimmed, and the guarding soldiers found a charred corpse in the fire.

The corpse had been burned beyond recognition and could not be identified, but from the physical point of view, it was very similar to Fang Yuan's, and it was almost certain that it was Fang Yuan.

"do you died?!"

After Gao Tianzhi learned the news, he couldn't calm down for a long time looking at the charred corpse.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, feeling like he was under such a heavy burden.

"Hahaha, die well. From now on, who can stop me from leading Goguryeo to rise?!"

As the night passes, a ray of light shines from the east side of the sky, and life slowly emerges from the silent earth.

Gao Tianzhi looked at the eastern horizon and took a deep breath with happiness on his face.

Although he didn't sleep all night, he was extremely energetic.

"Open the city gates and summon all the officials to court!"

Gao Tianzhi calmed down his emotions and said loudly.

Now that Fang Yuan is dead and the old king is dead, who else can stop his dominance?
As for that evil son, after waiting for dawn, clues will eventually be revealed, and one day he will be found.

Soon, the palace gate was released from alert.

The officials of Goguryeo were already waiting eagerly at the palace gate.

After the city gate opened, all the officials finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly entered.

They didn't know what happened last night, but it was definitely not a good thing. After all, even the weapons depot was destroyed.

Moreover, everyone saw last night that the palace was blazing with flames. If the city gate had not been tightly closed and heavily guarded, they would have forced their way in.

"Where is General Lu?"

Gao Tianzhi looked around the audience proudly.

But soon, his smile slowly stiffened.

Because the person he was looking for didn't come, Lu Tingmei's father didn't come.

If he didn't come, his good life would not be so smooth, and there might be other twists and turns.

"Back to Your Majesty, General Lu has asked for sick leave."

"He suddenly became dizzy, suffered from heartache and headache, and was unable to go to morning service."

A courtier stood up and relayed the words of Lu Tingmei's father.

"It's so serious. I just have to go and have a look after the meeting."

Gao Tianzhi sneered in his heart, but he still showed concern.

"Your Majesty is merciful!"

All the officials immediately flattered him.

Soon, morning begins.

"Your Majesty, there was a fire in the palace last night and the weapons depot was blown up. Please know."

In the middle of the court meeting, a minister stood up and asked about the situation.

As an important minister of the imperial court, if such a terrible thing happened in the imperial court, they would naturally want to know the reason.

In addition, General Lu, who had never been sick earlier or later, suddenly fell ill at this time and said he could not go to the morning court.

Therefore, when he proposed it, all civil and military officials in the court looked to Gao Tianzhi, hoping that Gao Tianzhi could give them an answer.

"Last night. Princess Gao Xiangyu suddenly went crazy last night. She took the prince away and disappeared, and burned down the palace. I am looking for her."

"As for the issue of the weapons arsenal, I am also investigating. The preliminary results show that it was done by the Tang Dynasty. The unique fire blunderbuss cannot be imitated by other countries."

Gao Tianzhi's face slowly darkened and he said in pain.

Before he could even finish his words, there was an uproar on the scene.

First, the princess went crazy and took the prince away, and then the weapons arsenal was blown up by someone suspected of being from the Tang Dynasty.

No matter what it was, it was a big deal for Goguryeo.

The former involves the issue of Goguryeo's successor.

The latter involves the relationship between Goguryeo and Datang.

"Quiet!"

"The sky hasn't fallen yet!"

Gao Tianzhi frowned, looked around at the ministers, and shouted in a low voice.

The ministers at the scene suddenly trembled, and the noise slowly stopped.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the top priority is to find the eldest prince as soon as possible!"

A minister suggested.

Much of the culture of Goguryeo was learned from the Tang Dynasty.

They attach great importance to the identity of their eldest son and do not want anything to happen to the heir.

"Searching in progress."

Gao Tianzhi said slowly.

But before he finished speaking, Tan Qingchang strode in from outside.

All the officials were surprised by this scene and looked at Tan Qingchang.

"Your Majesty, the prince has been found!"

Tan Qingchang said excitedly.

After searching for most of the night, we finally found it after dawn.

It turned out that Princess Gao Xiangyu hid in a dry well and hid from all searches.

But adults can control themselves, but children can't. I don't know if the child is hungry, but he is crying.

Then the searching soldiers discovered Gao Xiangyu's traces and captured him very smoothly.

"found it?"

"Great, come up!"

This was not what Gao Tianzhi said.

He was a minister in the DPRK who was somewhat related to Lu Tingmei.

After Lu Tingmei took the throne of queen, many people in her family were irradiated and received many rewards.

Tan Qingchang did not move, but looked at Gao Tianzhi.

"What are you doing standing there, why haven't you picked up the prince?"

Gao Tianzhi was also very happy.

Although the evil son is not his own, he has now fallen into his hands.

Then you can find any reason to die young, or use him to threaten Lu Tingmei.

Victory already belongs to you!

Goguryeo is finally in his own hands!
Soon, the wet nurse picked up the child, who was sleeping sweetly.

"It looks exactly like His Majesty."

"Look at that nose, look at those eyebrows, they are just a copy of His Majesty."

Some ministers surrounded the child and kept praising him.

But they didn't know that every time they said a word, Gao Tianzhi would be stabbed in the heart.

Trash, all blind, how is he similar to me?

"Okay, take it with you."

Gao Tianzhi held back and waved his hands.

The ministers slowly backed away to make way for the nanny.

However, the nanny did not step back, but looked at Gao Tianzhi.

"Your Majesty, His Highness the Prince was brutally attacked and almost died. Don't you want to hug him?"

The wet nurse whispered.

But it seemed so harsh in the main hall.

The expressions of the ministers suddenly changed, and they made eye contact with each other.

Yes, the prince was almost killed. Why did your majesty not seem to care much?
For a moment, everyone thought of General Lu's sick leave.

"Then hug him up."

The corners of Gao Tianzhi's mouth twitched crazily and his fists were clenched in his sleeves.

But in this case, he couldn't have a seizure, and he had to pretend to be a loving father.

There is no way. Although they are now in control of the government, the ministers have not really returned home.

I still need to rely on them in many aspects and need their support.

And this nanny is right, it’s really unjustifiable not to cover it myself.

But, is this nanny too bold?
"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The nurse walked towards Gao Tianzhi.

As soon as he reached the stairs, he was stopped by the eunuch.

According to custom, things are handed over to the king by the eunuch to avoid unnecessary dangers.

"You are a eunuch, but you also want to hug His Highness?"

"If you fall, can you afford it?"

The wet nurse did not give it to the eunuch, but said coldly.

"Your Majesty."

The eunuch's expression immediately changed, but he did not dare to get angry.

The ministers looked on and seemed to feel nothing was wrong, and did not scold a nanny for being too courageous.

After all, many gentlemen here think that they cannot hold such a small child, let alone an eunuch. "Stand back and let the wet nurse carry you up."

Gao Tianzhi said calmly.

But in my heart, I have already labeled the wet nurse as a must-kill.

It's so brave to hold the emperor hostage to order the princes, but it's a pity that he chose the wrong person.

Soon, the wet nurse came to Gao Tianzhi, knelt on the ground respectfully, holding the child in her hands.

Gao Tianzhi smiled, but deep down he was extremely disgusted.

Finally, Gao Tianzhi picked up the child and held it in his arms, smiling sweetly.

Gao Tianzhi originally wanted to hold the baby a little longer, but he really couldn't help but want to fall down, so he quickly handed the baby back to the wet nurse.

"Go back."

The wet nurse slowly withdrew.

The ministers began to flatter each other again, saying that they had witnessed the scene of father and son loving each other.

Gao Tianzhi sneered in his heart and cursed a group of disgusting guys, but he still maintained a happy appearance on the surface.

But, suddenly, Gao Tianzhi's expression became stiff.

He suddenly felt severe pain in his chest, unable to breathe, and blood flowing backwards throughout his body.

"Pass it, pass it to the doctor"

Gao Tianzhi struggled to stand up, but suddenly fell to the ground.

"His Majesty!!!"

"Quick, tell the doctor!!!"

The ministers immediately became confused.

The eunuchs quickly helped Gao Tianzhi sit up.

"Stop, stop her!"

Gao Tianzhi pointed at the nanny and said with a ferocious expression.

He felt that his sudden discomfort was related to the arrival of the wet nurse.

As soon as the words fell, the guards outside the door immediately blocked the door and controlled the nanny.

"Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, spare your life, I don't know anything about it."

The wet nurse begged for mercy and held the child tightly.

The child seemed to be affected and showed an aggrieved expression, but he was still young and did not wake up or cry.

The soldiers knew who the nanny was in her arms, so they didn't dare to use force and just controlled the nanny.

The ministers were in confusion, not daring to approach Gao Tianzhi, and urging the doctor to come quickly.

Soon, a group of doctors arrived, including Xu Changjin.

At this moment, Gao Tianzhi's face was bloodshot and his pupils were bloodshot.

"poisoned?!"

"how come?!"

Soon, the doctors checked out the results.

But they were all shocked by this result.

Isn't it unbelievable that someone poisoned someone even though they were in the main hall?
The officials were in an uproar and in disbelief. They couldn't believe that Gao Tianzhi was poisoned under such circumstances.

Gao Tianzhi could still hear the doctors' words clearly, and immediately pointed to the controlled nanny with trembling fingers.

"search!"

Xu Changjin immediately stood up, strode to the nanny and snatched the child.

Without the restraints of His Royal Highness, the soldiers suddenly became rude to the nanny and searched her whole body.

Soon, the wet nurse was stripped naked, but nothing was found.

"It's not me, it's not me, I don't know anything, I don't know anything."

The wet nurse had a look of horror on her face, and she trembled and huddled on the ground.

"It doesn't have to be her. Let's find a way to save His Majesty first!"

Xu Changjin said in a deep voice.

However, the doctors were in a dilemma without knowing what kind of poison it was.

If they can't be cured, they may be implicated and may have to be buried with them.

"Pass, pass my order!"

"If they can't cure me, they will kill all nine of them!"

Gao Tianzhi struggled and said.

His eyes were bloodshot as if they were about to bleed.

The severe pain in his heart made him feel as if he was going to explode.

But he didn't know how he was poisoned, which made him extremely frustrated.

It is clear that the victory has been attributed to himself, it is clear that Fang Yuan is dead, and the future is bright and infinite.

But why is it poisoned?

The doctors were shocked.

Under the watchful eyes of the soldiers, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and start saving.

However, Gao Tianzhi's face became increasingly ugly, and his congested face turned from red to purple.

Finally, with a pop, Gao Tianzhi spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and he fell down.

At the moment when he lost consciousness, Gao Tianzhi seemed to see Fang Yuan appear.

"His Majesty!!!"

The doctors were shocked.

The ministers were shocked!
Tan Qingchang and others were also shocked.

"What, how is it?"

A doctor quickly checked Gao Tianzhi's condition.

The doctor on the side was trembling and asking about the situation.

They were afraid that if something happened to Gao Tianzhi, they would be punished by the nine tribes.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are dead."

The doctor's trembling voice sounded.

Everyone present was stunned, as silent as death.

I don’t know how much time passed, but no one among the ministers cried.

"His Majesty!!!"

"How could it be possible? How could it be possible? I don't believe it!"

"Why is this happening, why is it poisoning, why?"

The ministers mourned.

It was as if their world was falling apart.

But there were also many ministers exchanging glances while crying.

In the end, I don’t know who looked at His Royal Highness the Prince in Xu Changjin’s arms first.

The son inherits the father's business!

The king died suddenly, and it was natural for the eldest prince to succeed to the throne.

It's just that His Highness the Prince is so young and can't even speak. How can he succeed to the throne? !
At this time, the ministers had other ideas.

But at this time.

"The queen is here!"

A sharp voice sounded.

Lu Tingmei, who was imprisoned by Gao Tianzhi, suddenly appeared.

She appeared dressed up and her queenly temperament shocked the audience and instantly became the focus of the audience.

"Your Majesty, how could you leave before me?"

Lu Tingmei cried out and quickly ran towards Gao Tianzhi on the throne.

After walking to Gao Tianzhi, Lu Tingmei threw herself on Gao Tianzhi.

Although she kept crying and her tears kept falling, Lu Tingmei looked at Gao Tianzhi with hatred.

At this time, the ministers discovered that General Lu, who had taken sick leave and could not attend the morning court, had arrived and knelt on the ground with them.

Seeing this scene, the smart minister felt that the matter was not simple, and that there was a huge conspiracy in it.

But the king is dead and the priority seems to be to introduce a new one.

But the late king only had one son, and everything seemed so clear.

After crying for a while, Lu Tingmei wiped away her tears and stood up.

"His Majesty died suddenly of poisoning. This Palace will never condone anyone involved."

"But the country cannot be without a master for a day, and your Majesty only has one son. I would like to hear the opinions of all ministers."

Lu Tingmei looked at the ministers with red eyes and said in a deep voice.

"I believe that His Highness the Prince should be established as the new king. The Queen will listen to the affairs behind the curtain, and then appoint three ministers who take care of life. When the Prince comes of age, he will return to the government."

General Lu stood up and said loudly.

This is to give up two interests and reduce the opposition between the DPRK and China.

But even if the benefits are given up, no one can stop it, it's just that it will be difficult to control in the future.

Therefore, before coming here, General Lu discussed the strategy with Fang Yuan. (End of chapter)
