    (Thanks to Zhuo Wei for your support, thank you!) "Who?" he hissed.  The voice was hoarse and unpleasant, like nails scratching a stone wall.  He Ruobi was burning with fever, and he couldn't tell whether it was day or night, or how long he had been asleep.  He was too weak. The general who once charged into battle could only lie like a mouse in a dark, damp and cold dungeon.  "Who!" he shouted again, trying to make his voice louder. The silence and gloom were too much for him to bear. There wasn't even a mouse to be found in this damn place.  The light of the torch overflowed from the open iron door.  A dark shadow slowly walked toward him under the swaying torch. He Ruobi blinked, letting his eyes that had adapted to the darkness adapt to the light again.  This is the mysterious Secret Service Department of the Overwatch Council. It is said that people who are brought here will never have a chance to come out alive.  This is the most vicious side of the sage emperor. Those who offend the emperor will never end well.  The other person walked slowly in front of the iron fence, seemed to look at his pale face with interest, and laughed, "Now you know what it means to eat random things, and you can't talk nonsense, right?" He Ruobi touched it.  The troublemaker had a small piece of his own tongue cut off, making it difficult for him to speak completely.  He could feel the missing half of his tongue, and waves of burning pain assaulted him, "What do you want?" Liu Ying's hair was meticulously combed and tied up. He was wearing a purple round-neck official robe, soft and soft.  High boots, a silk cloak with a black face and a red bottom, and a sword hanging from his waist.  "Kill me if you have the guts." He Ruobi hissed, but his words sounded a bit weird after half of his tongue was shortened, making his words sound less powerful and a bit ridiculous.  "Even if you want to survive now, you have no chance." Liu Ying looked at He Ruobi coldly, "What you have to consider now is your family. Don't forget that what you are committing now is conspiracy and rebellion.  It's a serious crime. You are destined to die. The only thing you can save now is your family." "I didn't rebel, let alone commit rebellion," He Ruobi retorted loudly.  You are setting up a false accusation. Who doesn¡¯t know that the Overwatch Council is basically the emperor¡¯s hawk¡¯s claws specializing in eliminating dissidents?¡± Liu Ying grinned, ¡°What¡¯s the point of denying it now? You don¡¯t really think that our Secret Service only keeps tabs on you.  Right? When did you and Shi Wansui, Liu Shu, Yu Wenbi, and Li Hun start colluding? When did you start conspiring? Where did you conspire? How many times did you conspire? We all know exactly what was said each time. Let me tell you the truth.  "The evidence of your treason is clear. If we report this to His Majesty, you will definitely die." "Then what nonsense are you talking about?"  If you confess all the evidence and confess your crime in front of His Majesty, then maybe we will consider leaving some incense for your family." Liu Ying stood in front of the iron fence. This case of the Secret Service involves many important people, not to mention the little ones below.  Yu Xiaoxia, just the five leaders of this rebellion group, Shi Wansui, He Ruobi, Liu Shu, Yuwenbi, and Li Hun, all have extraordinary status. Two former deputy privy envoys, a former internal Shiling or  The eldest princess's consort, Yuwen Bi and Li Hun are also top nobles. Li Hun belongs to the Li Mu family, one of the three top families in the Emperor Gaozu's dynasty.  Such a case, especially a counter-case, must either not be handled, or if it is to be handled, it must be done once and for all, and there is no room for any mistakes.  Although the Secret Service had been paying close attention to it for a long time, it had been hiding it and not alerting the enemy. It was not until the most critical moment when a large amount of irrefutable evidence was obtained that it took action to arrest the person.  But to be sure, Liu Ying was willing to negotiate terms with He Ruobi and others. As long as they confessed to the crime of treason in front of the emperor and officials, he was willing to reserve a descendant for them to inherit the clan.  "Why should I believe you? Yang Lin is better at turning his face than reading a book. I can see him clearly today. Today you want me to accept the evidence, just to make Yang Lin look good and prevent Yang Lin from being responsible for killing the hero.  "It's just to clear up the accusations of dissidents." "That's right, your Majesty is very clear about rewards and punishments, and he always treats his ministers well. Of course, the premise is that the ministers can be loyal to the emperor. And you, just because His Majesty allowed you to resign, you ended up like Shi.  Wan Zai, Liu Shu and others are plotting to cause chaos and want to launch a palace coup to usher in the restoration of the Supreme Emperor. Is this what you call loyalty?" Liu Ying said coldly.  "If Yang Lin hadn't been mean and ungrateful, why would we and the ministers betray him?" "It's useless to say more. I only give you one choice now, or you can ignore my proposal, and you will be punished by the Meridian Gate in three days.  If you kill them, your family will also be wiped out, the men will be executed, the women will be moved to the Shaofu, and the family property will be confiscated. Or, if you can cooperate a little, we can help you save at least the children under ten years old from death."; "By the way, let me tell you that both Liu Shu and Yu Wenbi are very knowledgeable about current affairs and are willing to cooperate." Hearing this, He Ruobi's face was ashen. Liu Ying waited for a while and saw no response, threw up his sleeves and walked away. As soon as he arrived at the door,  He Ruobi's unpleasant voice came from behind, "Can you guarantee that the children of my He Ruo family under the age of ten will survive?" "It depends on your cooperative attitude. If you cooperate well, of course you can." "Okay, I promise you, success will be king or failure.  "Kou, I admit it. I was careless. I didn't expect Yang Lin to be so cunning and insidious, tricking us step by step. I admit it. As long as I, the child of the He Ruo family, I will obey you." Liu Ying.  A satisfied smile appeared on his face.  In the first month of the first year of Kaiyuan, a major conspiracy led by He Ruobi, Long Live Shi, Liu Shu, Yu Wenbi, and Li Qing broke out in the court.  The Supervisory Yuan detected this major treason case and reported it to the emperor. The emperor immediately handed it over to hundreds of officials for discussion. At the same time, it was handed over to the Yushitai, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs for joint trial. At the same time, the Supervisory Yuan assisted and the Political Affairs Hall heard the trial.  The case was just a formality in Sanya, because there was really nothing to try. All kinds of evidence and witnesses were piled up, and there was a mountain of ironclad evidence. The five rebel leaders headed by He Ruobi, plus the following small and large rebels who participated in the rebellion, also  No one denied the crime, they all confessed.  After the three yamen's joint trial, the emperor finally tried the case in person in the Golden Palace. He Ruobi and other rebels did not reverse the case against the officials and the emperor.  "Your Majesty, I believe that treason is a heinous crime that must be pardoned, and all those who rebel against the party should be put to death!" Li Su proposed disposal suggestions to Yi Feng on behalf of the Political Affairs Hall.  The final result was that more than 130 rebels led by He Ruobi and Shi Wansui were all sentenced to be executed at the Meridian Gate. The adult brothers, sons, and nephews of these more than 100 rebel families were also executed, and the rest of the clan were removed from office and exonerated.  He lived on the frontier forever, lost all his property, and scattered his servants.  Under the operation of the Secret Service, more than a thousand people were executed in this major treason case, but it did not involve the fact that the rebels wanted the palace to support the emperor's restoration.  The case was finally characterized as He Ruobi Shi Long Live Liu Shu and others were dissatisfied with the demotion and removal from office, so they resented the emperor and eventually conspired to rebel.  After dealing with it, hundreds of officials watched the execution outside the Meridian Gate that day.  Rows of executioners held their swords high and chopped down again and again, causing heads to roll in. All the officials saw it with their own eyes, and they all had a deeper understanding of the emperor.  Although this emperor is young, he is ruthless. Last time it was the three major families of Dou Wei's eldest son, this time it is the five major families of Li, Liu, Shi, He Ruo and Yuwen plus hundreds of small and medium-sized Guanlong families below.  The rebel group was almost all the Guanlong family. It can be said that after the two rebellions, the power of the Guanlong group has been greatly reduced. At the time, the three top families in Gaozu's dynasty were the Li Mu family, the Wei Xiaokuan family, the Wei Shikang family, and the Yu Yi family.  Now the Li family and the Wei family have been uprooted, and the rest of the Guanlong wealthy families such as the Changsun, Dou family, Yuwen, He Ruo, Liu family, etc. have also been uprooted.  The Supreme Emperor Yang Yong was also invited to watch the Meridian Gate execution. Seeing that the ministers who had secretly contacted him before and wanted to support his restoration were beheaded one by one, Yang Yong's face was as white as snow, and he was very frightened.  "These treacherous officials and traitors are really hateful." Yang Yong turned to the young emperor and said, his words revealing the flattery.  "If you ask me, we should kill all nine of them without mercy." "Yes, they are really brave people. They overestimated themselves and underestimated me. Is your majesty right?" Yi Feng chuckled.  He turned around and said to Yang Yong.  "Yes, yes, these idiots, the emperor is young and promising, how can they bully them?" Yang Yong said nonchalantly.  The rest of this heinous crime could have been stopped and the current ending could have been avoided. Yi Feng had long been keeping an eye on Shi Wansui and others, and had long discovered their dissatisfaction.  But Yifeng did not issue an order, but let them jump up and down, deliberately condoning their behavior, in fact, he wanted to catch them all.  Yi Feng wanted to build an empire and move the capital eastward, which meant that he had to give up his position in Guanzhong, which meant that he wanted to absorb people from Jiangnan and Guandong into the court, instead of just the Guanlong family. This was an irreconcilable contradiction.  .  In this regard, Gaozu used compromise methods to win over the majority and attack the minority.  But now that Yi Feng has better conditions, he doesn't have time to play with them slowly, so he directly lures them out, and then kills those who dance the most and are the most powerful, killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, and completely  Destroy this powerful political group that spanned three dynasties.  Historically, Yang Jian has always wanted to get rid of the Guanlong Group. Yang Guang's actions became more intense. Unfortunately, his actions did not have much effect when Yang Jian was in power. However, Yang Guang's intense actions eventually led to the destruction of his country.  The reason is that Yang Guang relies on the Guanlong Group to control the world, and he is even a member of it. He vigorously suppresses the Guanlong Group and uses Jiangdong and Guandong people. In the end, his own power has not been cultivated, and Guanlong  The group rebelled against him, ultimately leading to his demise.  But Yifeng is different. He didn't start from Guanlong, nor did he rely on their support.To maintain his position, he has his own direct lineage, a powerful force, especially now that he defeated the Turks in the north, quelled the civil strife, and defeated Goryeo in the east. Yi Feng's prestige is increasing day by day. After moving the capital to Luoyang, his control has been further improved, and in  In less than a year, the Guanlong Group has lost its roots. Gao Jiong's resignation, the reorganization of the army, and the relocation of the capital have all made it difficult for them to have strong control over the court situation.  When they tried to overturn the court situation and support the emperor's restoration, what greeted them was a thunderous strike that Yi Feng had planned for a long time.  It¡¯s good now. After two major purges and the relocation of the capital to Luoyang, the Guanlong Group has nothing to fear. Only now does Yi Feng feel that his throne is stable.  Now that I'm free of those annoying guys, I can really make my mark.
