With such a major event happening in Huozhou right now, there are still many things to deal with, but he left everything and went back to Beijing directly.
Also this time, Si Yi suddenly found him and asked him to gather troops from the camp on the outskirts of Beijing with a transfer order, and secretly drive to Hezhou. When he met Gu Linchao in Hezhou, he found that he was blind.
No wonder he took such a long leave of absence suddenly.
But this time he returned to Beijing suddenly, will the emperor be against him
What King Xie said lingered in his mind, lingering, and he always felt that things had changed.
He couldn't help feeling a little worried.
…
The incident in Hezhou was quickly reported back to the capital, causing shock in the government and the public.
Gu Heng was also very surprised.
King Xi wants to rebel
However, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that King Xie had been suppressed.
This day, the court was discussing this matter, and suddenly, the voice of the palace people sang, "The Regent has arrived—"
Everyone was startled and looked outside the hall one after another.
Xiao Yan, who was dozing off at first, suddenly lost his sleepiness, and immediately looked out.
As expected, Gu Linchao came in from outside the hall, but he walked very slowly.
Xiao Yan was wondering why he came back suddenly, when he suddenly heard Gu Heng's questioning voice, "Uncle Huang, what's wrong with you, but you are not feeling well?"
He immediately turned his head to look at Gu Heng, how did he see that Hengzhi was unwell
He glanced at him suspiciously, then at Gu Linchao.
It wasn't until he got closer that he couldn't help shouting: "Heng Zhi?"
Gu Linchao paused, then walked directly to the golden steps before stopping.
And as soon as he opened his mouth, he said: "Your Majesty, I have trouble seeing, so I would like to resign from the post of Regent today."
As soon as this remark came out, there was a great uproar, and all the officials looked at him in surprise.
"Why did the Regent make such a statement?"
"Yeah, how can you resign from the post of regent?"
Xiao Yan also looked at him in shock, "Hengzhi, why do you..."
Wen Shiqing and Wen Tingyun also looked at him in surprise, "The eyes of the regent..."
Gu Heng held his hand tightly on the armrest of the dragon chair, restraining the ecstasy in his heart, but showed a concerned expression on his face, "Is the emperor's eye injured? I will immediately call the imperial physician to treat you. As for resigning as regent Uncle Huang will carefully consider the matter of the post of king."
Gu Linchao said calmly: "No one can cure my eyes, so the emperor doesn't need to waste time." Then, he handed over the exclusive seal and token of the regent king.
Gu Heng glanced at Hao Fulu.
Hao Fulu went over and collected the things.
Gu Heng said in embarrassment: "Uncle Huang devoted himself to the great cause and gave a lot. If I don't have Uncle Huang to assist me in the future, I am afraid that I will be unable to support myself."
Gu Linchao said: "Originally, as a subject, I shouldn't mention meritorious deeds, but when the emperor mentioned it today, I hope that the emperor will remember it well and never do anything ungrateful."
Gu Heng's complexion changed drastically when he heard this, the fingers under his sleeves were clenched tightly, but he said: "Of course I am not that kind of ungrateful person, I will always remember the achievements made by the emperor." After a pause, he said, "Since the emperor's uncle doesn't want to be the regent anymore, then the matter of the soldier talisman..."
"There's no rush for the soldier talisman. The emperor will give me what I want first, and the minister will present the soldier talisman." Gu Linchao said.
Hearing this, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were full of doubts in their hearts, and they always felt that something happened that they didn't know.
However, there seemed to be some subtleties between the regent king and the emperor.
Gu Heng was stunned for a while, and frowned in confusion, "What does the emperor want? Do you want a fiefdom? Where do you want, I will give it to you immediately."
He behaved very generously, with the attitude that Gu Linchao would agree to whatever he wanted.
Gu Linchao frowned coldly, "The emperor knows what I want. As for the fiefdom, Xiangzhou was assigned to me when the late emperor was here, so there is no need for the emperor to bother."
Hearing this, the ministers panicked.
It seems that the Prince Regent is serious this time, is he really going to resign as Prince Regent and retire to Xiangzhou
"Then I don't understand." Gu Heng sighed and said, "Uncle Huang should speak directly."
Gu Linchao lost his patience, "A few days ago, you sent someone to arrest your aunt, and threatened to let me exchange it with a military talisman. Now, I have solved the serious trouble in the state of Huozhou for you, and I am willing to give you a military talisman. What else do you want?"
All the ministers looked at him in shock, thinking they had heard wrong
Wen Shiqing and his son looked surprised, the emperor detained the emperor
Xiao Yan was also taken aback, no wonder Hengzhi was so restless.
He stared at Gu Heng in disbelief, and asked, "The emperor actually detained your aunt in order to obtain the military talisman? How could the emperor do this?"
Gu Heng's expression turned ugly, "Uncle Huang, I respect and respect you, how could you slander me so much? If Aunt Huang is missing, I can send someone to help look for it, how can you..."
Gu Linchao said: "Since you want to pretend to be stupid, let's put aside the matter of the military talisman. When you figure it out, come directly to the palace to find me." After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out the door.
Xiao Yan, Wen Shiqing and his son quickly chased after him.
There was a dead silence in the hall, and all the officials dared not breathe.
A coldness flashed across Gu Heng's eyes.
Gu, Lin, Chao!
Outside the hall, Gu Linchao walked unhappily, Xiao Yan and others quickly caught up.
"Hengzhi, why are you so impulsive?" Xiao Yan said disapprovingly after stepping forward to support him.
Gu Linchao was silent for a long time, before saying: "Yongyang has been detained for many days, I don't want to wait any longer." And because of the incident in Huozhou, he didn't exchange the soldier talisman with her immediately, and he felt very guilty.
Xiao Yan frowned when he heard this, "Is it really in his hands?"
"Besides him, I can't figure out who else wants a military talisman." Gu Linchao said calmly, with a very firm tone.
Moreover, when he just walked into the hall, Gu Heng actually asked him if he was unwell. Obviously, he already knew that he was blind.
This must be what the man in black who fought against him last time told him.
"How did the emperor take you away?" At this time, Wen Shiqing couldn't help asking.
Gu Linchao said apologetically, "Father-in-law, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of the scorpion."
"How can this be your fault?" Wen Shiqing said hastily, and instead cared about his eyes, "By the way, how are your eyes now, how are they so good..."
"My eyes are fine, I just can't see." Gu Linchao said warmly.
Wen Tingyun sighed, couldn't see it anymore, and said it was okay.
"Then what should we do now? Just now, I see what the emperor means, and I'm afraid he won't hand over the scorpion easily." He said worriedly.
"Unless he doesn't want the soldier talisman." Gu Linchao frowned, he couldn't figure out why he refused to hand over the talisman, the soldier talisman was what he had always wanted.
"He really doesn't even want face." Xiao Yan said angrily, "He doesn't even think about it. Who is it thanks to him to be able to be here today? You bastard who turned his face and refused to recognize anyone! Hengzhi, everything you have done , It's really not worth it."
