Chapter 12 1. Misfortune Witch Gu

To be honest, since Gongsun Ao rescued Wei Qing, although he was not particularly lucky, he has always picked up big bargains.In the battle that just passed, the battlefield was defeated, and the Hun captive suddenly told him that there was a counterfeit Li Ling.Although it was useless, but because someone took the blame for him, he could still eat big bowls and drink big mouthfuls, which was very pleasant. Facts have proved that if you pick up too much cheap, you will suffer a lot.96 BC, April.That year, for Gongsun Ao, was an extremely hopeless and extremely dark day.That spring, Gongsun Ao finally ended his glorious life of cheap and often picked.

Things happened suddenly and inexplicably.First of all, Gongsun Ao's wife, for some reason, was accused of playing "witchcraft".Everyone in the Han Dynasty knew that playing with knives and fire was trivial. If they dared to play witchcraft, it only showed one problem. This person was either bold or tired of work. In the Han Dynasty, as long as those who practiced witchcraft were found out, most of them confiscated the whole family, leaving their corpses lying on the ground with blood flowing freely.Unfortunately, Gongsun Ao, who has experienced all kinds of storms, was implicated inexplicably.Liu Che was not ambiguous at all, pulled him out, and bent his waist.

Liu Che thought that the so-called shamans who cut off Gongsun Ao's saber should be timid and restrained.The truth is, this is only a prologue, not even a beginning. The real beginning of the terrible witchcraft happened four years later. In April 92 BC, there was a severe drought in the world.Strange things happen every year, and there were a lot of them that year.At that time, Liu Che was on vacation at Jianzhang Palace.Jianzhang Palace is located outside Chang'an City.Unexpectedly, when Liu Che had a rare leisure time, someone suddenly broke into the Jianzhang Palace, breaking the quiet Jianzhang Palace, and the whole Chang'an became turbulent.

Who is this guy?What was he doing in here?I cannot answer this question.Not to mention me, even Liu Che himself was confused. The situation at that time was roughly as follows: Liu Che saw a man from a distance in Jianzhang Palace, wearing a long sword and passing through the Zhonglonghua Gate.What's even more frightening is that this is a strange swordsman.Liu Che immediately had a flash of thought that the assassin might have come for him.So Liu Che immediately sent someone to block the way to arrest him, but the swordsman was so frightened that he abandoned his sword and ran away. Who is this swordsman and how did he get in?Liu Che sent someone to ask the guard, but the chief guard was startled and terrified, and only said that he hadn't seen anyone go in, let alone go out.

Now, the problem is big.The Jianzhang Palace was heavily guarded, and the swordsmen seemed to regard it as their own home, breaking in without anyone noticing it, and slipping out from nowhere as if they had grown wings.It is impossible to grow wings.The greatest possibility is that this swordsman must be a foreigner with high martial arts skills.But even if he is a stranger, if he can come and go like the wind in Jianzhang Palace, it is also possible that he has stepped on it a long time ago and figured out the doorway here. Step on the spot and get familiar with the escape route.This further shows that the assassin was premeditated.After stepping on the spot for a long time, the chief guard didn't know it, and he was simply a big idiot.Therefore, Liu Che was furious, and the first thing he did was to kill the chief guard.

The stone has fallen into the lake, stirring up a thousand waves.Immediately afterwards, Liu Che ordered that the assassin must be found.Even if he is hidden underground, he has to dig three feet to dig him out. Liu Che has already arranged how to dig and where to dig.First, the cavalry in the Gyeonggi area was conscripted and Shanglinyuan was searched.Shanglinyuan is Liu Che's hunting ground. The forest is not too big, but there are all kinds of birds. It is a good place for strangers to hide. Except for Shanglin Garden, Liu Che closed Chang'an City and searched every house.After this search, eleven days passed.As a result, he was empty-handed and didn't even find a ghost.

Depressed, really depressed.What kind of martial arts master is trying to make things difficult for Liu Che with me? If no one is found, there must be someone to suspect, right?Of course there are targets, but Liu Che can't help it.Because, the object of his suspicion is the legendary Jianghu hero.This hero seems to have practiced the technique of escaping from the ground, no one knows which ravine he is hiding in. This year, Liu Che has lived to be more than sixty years old.He ascended the throne at the age of sixteen, and has ruled the world for most of his life. There are only things he can't think of, and there is nothing he can't do.However, throughout the ages, great rivers and rivers have passed, but there are not a few people who capsize in small river ditches.Although Liu Che didn't capsize, he didn't feel the same way about the suspect.

What Liu Che can't do is not necessarily impossible for everyone in the world.Soon, someone said to Liu Che, isn't he just a ranger, I promise to catch him. The name of the person who said this was Gongsun He.In terms of seniority, Gongsun He is also an old man.Ban Gu said that he was rarely a knight, but he had many meritorious service in the army.When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was still the prince, Gongsun He was the prince's sacrificial person.Later, Liu Che became the emperor, and Gongsun He also changed from a sheren to a servant.Good luck did not patronize him, and later, he married a wife of Guangzong Yaozu.This wife is the sister of Queen Chaowei.

Ability, luck, background, everything.Gongsun He's position was like a rainbow light, changing all the way, what kind of general, he was named a marquis, and finally changed in a flash, he became a prime minister and was conferred a marquis again.Being granted the title of marquis by the prime minister is a good start for his brother Gongsun Hongkai. In fact, to Gongsun He, it doesn't matter what he wants or not.People are messing around in the rivers and lakes, as the saying goes, safety first.Therefore, when Liu Che wanted to worship him as prime minister, he refused to accept it life or death.

Why not?The reason is very simple, the prime minister's job is really not good.Since Liu Che came to power, among the prime ministers, only Gongsun Hong was able to start well and end well.Others, almost all died badly.Such as Dou Ying and Tian Fu before Gongsun Hong.If Tian Fu got sick, he would have taken a step earlier, otherwise Liu Che would have cut off his head if he kept his head.Moreover, he couldn't see how their whole family was killed. Another example is that after Gong Sunhong, there was Li Guang's cousin Li Cai, who seemed to occupy the royal land, and was beheaded by others; there was also Yan Qingzhai, who joined forces with Zhu Maichen to get rid of Zhang Tang, but he did not escape Liu Che's knife; Even Zhao Zhou, who was unfamiliar to everyone, had a hard time dying.

After Zhao Zhou, the prime minister was Shi Qing.Shi Qing was a well-known good old man in the Han Dynasty. He always maintained the strict family tradition and loyalty tradition initiated by his father Wan Shijun Shi Fen.But for such a person, Liu Che always picked on him.In the end, he was convicted of a crime because of his carelessness, and he paid for the ransom himself.Fortunately, he died of natural causes in the end.But after his death, the so-called glorious history of Lord Wan Shi also came to an end. Gongsun He was born in the army, and all soldiers have a temper.A good man like Mr. Shi Qing couldn't work under Liu Che. Suddenly Liu Che said that he would take over Shi Qing's class, which really made Gongsun He feel sudden and frightened. It is said that on the day Liu Che worshiped Gongsun He as his chancellor, Mr. Gongsun was so anxious that he knelt on the ground and kept crying, refusing to accept the seal.While crying, the old man wiped his tears and said: I am not talented, I come from a humble background, I can only bend the bow and shoot arrows, kill the enemy on the battlefield, I really can't bear the high position of the prime minister. Gongsun He cried so loudly that even Liu Che was moved to tears.Liu Che said to the left and right to help the prime minister up.However, Gongsun He still refused to get up.He had figured it out a long time ago. He would rather offend the emperor himself than kill the entire clan in the future because of himself.Gongsun He thought that as long as he died and was not sealed, the emperor would have nothing to do with him. In fact, Gongsun He was wrong.Seeing that Gongsun Hechang couldn't kneel down, Liu Che suddenly made a 180-degree change, turned around, and walked away without saying a word.This time, Gongsun He was completely at a loss.I had no choice but to stand up obediently, pat the dust off my body, and took over the seal of the prime minister who was feared by everyone. Facts have proved that the legendary prime minister's seal is indeed a down-to-earth seal.After Gongsun He became the prime minister, he will bid farewell to his whole family in good times. It was his son Gongsun Jingsheng who brought bad luck to Gongsun He's family first.After the father became the prime minister, Jing Sheng took over the high-ranking officials and servants that the father used to be.China's rich second generation is a coaxing generation.If the family education is a little bad, not only will it fail to bring benefits to the society, but it will cause a catastrophe.Brother Gongzi's respectful voice probably falls into this category. The so-called one person attains the Tao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.What's more, the Gongsun family is the whole family.Brother Gongzi Jingsheng thinks that father is the prime minister, mother is Queen Wei's sister, and he is a minister-level senior official, so if he commits a crime, he is considered a bird.Therefore, the son-in-law, who doesn't know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth, pays homage to him, spending money like water, and being arrogant and extravagant.Over time, he suddenly found that he had no money to fill the gap in his spending.So, he immediately thought of a trick to make money. Where to get the money?The reverence that flooded the head actually hit the Beijun with the idea of ​​making money.So one catch is 19 million.Unfortunately, the misappropriation of public funds was immediately brought to light.Those cruel officials in Chang'an were also unambiguous, punishing Jingsheng and sending him to prison. Knowing about Gongsun He's family changes, we can go back to the issue of Gongsun He helping Liu Che catch the suspect.Gongsun He also told Liu Che that if he could catch the suspect, he would ask for this merit to atone for his son Jingsheng's crime. Liu Che agreed. If so, then arrest people.Liu Che suspects that the suspect who broke into Jianzhang Palace may be Zhu Anshi, a famous ranger in Chang'an.No one knows what method Gongsun He used to capture the legendary Zhu Anshi.However, when Zhu Anshi heard that Gongsun He was desperately trying to catch him in order to redeem the honor of his son and brother, he looked up to the sky and laughed. Zhu Anshi let out the wind and said: The whole family of the prime minister is about to die. It's really over.Soon, Zhu Anshi sent a letter from the prison, telling the son Jingsheng to have an affair with Princess Yangshi.Princess Yangshi, the son and daughter of Liu Che and Queen Wei. Fornication is still a trivial matter, and the more terrifying thing is yet to come: Young Master Jingsheng knows that His Majesty often goes to Ganquan Palace, and once asked people to bury puppets in the middle of the road, and cursed the Emperor. When the indictment reached the palace, Liu Che immediately sent someone to investigate, and there were indeed many puppets buried in the middle of the road.Now, even if there are thousands of mouths and ten thousand legs, it is impossible to speak clearly, and it is impossible to run away. Soon, Gongsun He's whole family was killed.Not long after, Princess Yangshi, Princess Zhuyi, and even Wei Qing's son, Mrs. Wei, were implicated in Gongsun He's witchcraft case and their heads fell to the ground. The most terrifying witchcraft case in the Han Dynasty has finally torn the horrific prelude!
