Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 301 Marriage to the Gao Family (2)

A remnant of the former dynasty learned of Emperor Minggan's whereabouts and intended to sneak attack the palace at night when he was unprepared. Fortunately, Gao Qichang made an inspection that night, killed more than ten people, captured one alive, and sent him to Emperor Minggan for disposal.

Since Emperor Mingqian ascended the throne, he has been troubled by the remnants of the previous dynasty. Besides, these people took up their swords at this moment, put down their swords and mixed with the crowd, they are ordinary people, invisible and difficult to uproot.A few years ago, there were Xiongnu, Huairou, and Puppet Chu waiting for an opportunity to invade, and there were bandits making trouble inside, Emperor Mingqian couldn't be distracted, now those remnants came to the palace to assassinate, Emperor Minggan was really angry, pointed at Gao Qichang and said in a low voice Said: "Check it out, check it out! If you don't find these people out, they will really think I'm dead! You take the Yulin army back to the capital immediately, and save these remnants before they have the ability to rescue them." People, take me back to the palace and torture them!"

"The last general obeys the order." Gao Qichang rushed back to the capital with his confidants overnight, and brought the remnants who were captured alive to the prison opened by the emperor in the Yulin Army for interrogation.

Although Emperor Ming Qian lost his temper in playing in the palace after this assassination, fortunately there was no mistake in the ancestral worship altar. He immediately met with the courtiers and took a rest in the palace with the empress. He returned to the palace five days later.

The assassin who couldn't stand the punishment spat out on his head on the third day, and told Gao Qichang everything he knew. Gao Qichang asked Gao Yang to rush to the palace overnight to meet the emperor, and wrote his memorial to the emperor. The Yulin Army arrested Yu Nie overnight, and after the emperor returned to the palace, Gao Qichang had already taken up the task of organizing the assassination, and captured the wounded head of the White Lotus Sect, Ge Tianliang, alive.

Ming Qian Emperor Longyan was very happy, and with a wave of cinnabar pen on the paper, Ge Tianliang was sentenced to death, and three days later he beheaded for public display.

"Gao Aiqing, you really are a lucky general. In just a few days, you have captured the members of the White Lotus Sect!"

Gao Qichang stood on the ground with his hands folded: "Your Majesty, even though Ge Tianliang is the branch master of the White Lotus Sect, he is also the core figure of the White Lotus Sect. Why didn't he take this opportunity to wipe out the White Lotus Sect in one fell swoop, and behead him instead?"

"Since Ge Tianliang is the head of the branch, he certainly knows more things than a little guy, but how can such a person who is highly valued by the White Lotus Sect be willing to spit out the sect's secrets so easily? Even if he can't stand the criminal law, say Come out, how can the members of the White Lotus Sect who have been prepared for a long time stay where they are? Torture takes time, and the White Lotus Sect can completely escape without a trace by relying on the time that Ge Tianliang won. Looking, what can we find? It’s better to catch them off guard from the beginning.”

"The end will be dull."

Emperor Minggan went around the desk and walked in front of Gao Qichang, with his hands behind his back and a faint smile: "It depends on whether Ge Tianliang is important to the White Lotus Sect. If the people of the White Lotus Sect don't want Ge Tianliang to die like this, they will come." To save him, even if you know it's a moth to the flame, you must try, and then you will naturally be able to catch the White Lotus Sect."

"What if people from the White Lotus Sect don't come to rescue Ge Tianliang?"

Emperor Minggan raised his eyebrows and said, "That means that Ge Tianliang is not important. He doesn't know anything about the secrets of the White Lotus Sect. There is no need for you to keep such a person."

Gao Qichang said in admiration: "Your Majesty is wise, and will eventually be convinced."

Emperor Minggan smiled happily, and turned back to the desk: "You don't need to flatter me. You did a good job this time, and I intend to reward you, but this matter should not be too big, so I will reward you One hundred taels of gold, take it back to honor your mother."

"Your Majesty, I will do things for Your Majesty in the end, and I dare not ask for rewards."

Emperor Minggan turned to look at him: "I know what you want. Your grandmother is sick and entered the palace because of your affairs. Although I didn't say anything about you, I still listen to what you say. came out."

Gao Qichang knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, the general has nothing else to wish for in his life, but only wants to be able to stay with the one he loves forever. To your majesty, let the general be perfect!"

"Get up." Emperor Ming Qian sat down short, "the ancients said it is good that it is difficult for an upright official to decide on family affairs, not to mention that this matter has a lot to do with it. It's not that I refuse to help you. Since your father left, your mother has Counting on you to inherit the family business, I have to consider your mother's wishes."

"Your Majesty, if you can't marry Qing'er, you will end up living alone forever."

Emperor Minggan waved his hand impatiently: "Don't tell me this, you go tell your mother, and see if your mother will be pissed off by you!"

Seeing that Gao Qichang was as stubborn as a bull, Emperor Ming Qian continued slowly: "Yesterday your mother went to see the queen, and the queen persuaded her a few words, but your mother agreed to the girl from the Shi family to come in, but there is only one condition. Treat the girl from the Shi family After entering the door, take a concubine immediately, if you don't agree, she won't agree with you to marry that girl from the Shi family."

Gao Qichang looked up in astonishment, forgetting etiquette: "Your Majesty, how can this be possible!"

"Why not?" Emperor Minggan frowned in displeasure, "Could it be possible that you want to watch your mother be mad at you? Now that your mother has taken a step back, you refuse to seize this opportunity. Give yourself a step down?"

Seeing Gao Qichang staring at him with empty eyes, Emperor Minggan sighed in his heart, he couldn't be relieved after all, and persuaded: "Now it's the right thing to let her get through the door with the child as soon as possible, that child is getting older every day, you have to let him fall outside , are you being bullied?"

"The last general... the last general will obey the order."

After all, he didn't have the guts to defy the emperor and reject this dirty deal.

That night, Emperor Minggan held a grand banquet, holding the chrysanthemum wine brewed in the Queen's Palace. Everyone at the banquet was full of smiles. All he could think about was what Emperor Minggan said to him just now.

"... General, Young General Gao, the emperor is calling for you."

Gao Qichang got up from his seat, stepped forward steadily and saluted, "Your Majesty."

Emperor Ming Qian's smile had something more that people couldn't see clearly: "Gao Qichang, are you willing to form a friendship with Princess Yuanhe and the Qin and Jin Dynasties?"

"Report to Your Majesty, the general will be willing." Gao Qichang's response was concise, yet powerful.

This should have been something he had been looking forward to day and night, but now that his dream had come true, he couldn't be happier no matter what.

"Yuanhe Princess Minxiu is very respectful, and she is very suitable for my general Xuanwei's handsome and beautiful appearance. Today, I will make the decision and personally bestow the marriage. I promise that the two of them will be married for a hundred years forever."

Gao Qichang kowtowed blankly to thank: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En."

In the final analysis, he, Gao Qichang, had fulfilled his vow that Shi Yiqing would be the only one in his life.
