Is the death of the old King Ning related to Tian Zhongxun?
Although she had this guess, she was not sure.
But looking at Emperor Feng’s appearance, he seemed very confident!
Could it be that he knows something?
"Manager Hu!"
"The old slave is here!"
"Pass on my decree and announce it to the world!"
"King Tian Zhongxun of Qi has openly rebelled and colluded with Goguryeo. Effective immediately, his title to kingship will be stripped and his ancestral worship will be severed. All those with ambition in the world, unite to fight him. Whoever kills Tian Zhongxun will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!"
"Order Jinan, Jibei, Liaodong, Donghai, and Xuejun to immediately dispatch troops to support Linzi County at all costs. Arrest Jingzhao Prefecture Governor Gu Mingzhi and his entire clan for treason. Urgently summon all civil and military officials to the Weiyang Palace for consultation!"
Emperor Feng instantly became more energetic.
He gave out orders one after another with great excitement.
He has waited for this day for too long!
Since Emperor Wen, the long-cherished wish of successive emperors had been to reduce the power of the feudal lords. However, the four kings of different surnames were closely related, making this difficult to achieve. Later, they chose to marry the King of Lu to divide the kings of different surnames and at the same time to contain the King of Qi.
Finally, the opportunity has come!
Tian Zhongxun openly rebelled and attacked Linzi!
Then, Fengdi had a legitimate reason to do so.
He could even mobilize armies across the country to suppress rebellions.
From now on, there will no longer be any King of Qi in Dafeng!
"The Gu family...is finally gone..."
The Queen Mother sighed softly.
She still has some good feelings towards the Gu family.
Because her mother was once a member of the Gu family.
The Gu family has been able to sit on the fence for many years because the Emperor Feng was doing so for the Empress Dowager's sake. But now that Gu Yuan is openly colluding with Tian Zhongxun to commit treason, even the Empress Dowager can no longer protect the Gu family!
"Emperor, could you kill fewer members of the Gu family?"
"No!" Emperor Feng retorted firmly, "Hasn't the Gu family committed a lot of corruption and abuse of power over the years? I've given them many opportunities for the sake of my mother. But they're so self-righteous, thinking I can't do without them, that they keep wavering, trying to please both sides. Such traitors to the country, I must kill them!"
