Time travel, sell Tang poems at the beginning

Gao Yanqing's face was full of anger, and everyone in the Gao family looked at Gao Tianxu. It was obvious that they hoped Gao Tianxu would quickly admit his mistake to Gao Yanqing.

Gao Jiaxiong reached out and patted Gao Tianxu on the shoulder, "Xu'er, why don't you quickly admit your mistake to your grandfather?"

Gao Tianxu then came to Gao Yanqing with a frightened face, bent his legs and knelt on the ground, "Grandpa, my grandson has caused great trouble to the Gao family. If you want to beat me, you can do it. I will never complain."

Gao Yanqing really wanted to beat Gao Tianxu up to vent his anger, but Gao Tianxu actually asked for a fight, so Gao Yanqing didn't want to fight back.

Gao Yanqing gradually began to calm down. Things had developed to this point today, and fighting or not would not change the predicament the Gao family was facing.

"Tianxu, grandpa won't hit you, but the country has its own laws and the family has its own rules. If you do something wrong, you must accept the punishment."

Gao Tianxu immediately said: "Grandson is willing to accept any punishment."

Gao Yanqing nodded, "Okay! In that case, Grandpa will officially announce your punishment as the head of the family."

"Since Gao Tianxu, a member of the Gao family, accepted 8.35 million taels of silver from others in the name of the family head without the family head's permission, which almost caused the family to be destroyed, Gao Tianxu will be expelled from the Gao family in accordance with Article 3 of the family rules, and from now on he is not allowed to call himself a member of the Gao family."

When Gao Yanqing said this, all the members of the Gao family were shocked.

"Brother, Tianxu is the eldest grandson after all. You just need to give him a severe punishment. Isn't it a bit too much to expel him from the family?" said Gao Yanming, the third master of the Gao family.

Gao Yanwen nodded, "Third brother, what you said makes sense. How about you give Tianxu another chance and think about it carefully?"

Gao Tianxu's father, Gao Jiaxiong, stepped forward and bowed, "Dad, Xu'er is your most valued grandson. Even if he made a big mistake, you should give him a chance to correct it, right? Expelling him from the family is too severe a punishment. Please think twice."

"Please think twice, Patriarch!"

All the Gao family members spoke in unison.

The Gao family members are still pleading for Gao Tianxu, and it is obvious that they have not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.

Gao Yanqing looked at all the members of the Gao family and said seriously, "I just said that Tianxu almost brought the family to the brink of extinction. Do you think this is just an exaggeration?"

"This head of the family is telling you clearly that according to Dayan's criminal law, officials who embezzle or accept bribes exceeding one million taels will have all their property confiscated and all their family members will be exiled to the border as slaves forever. Our Gao family accepted bribes of 8.35 million taels, and according to the law, our entire family should be executed."

"If it weren't for the fact that His Royal Highness the Wise King pardoned my Gao family's death penalty for the meritorious service of my family head leading the army to surrender, my Gao family would be destroyed at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow."

"Not only that, Tianxu also teamed up with Wu Yuanjie and Zhou Wanli to use the so-called anti-poem to frame His Royal Highness the King. Now Wu Yuanjie and Zhou Wanli have been imprisoned in death row."

"The Mirror and Inspection Department has posted a notice in the city that Wu Yuanjie and Zhou Wanli will be publicly beheaded at the West Market Execution Platform at 3:45 p.m. tomorrow."

"If it weren't for the fact that His Royal Highness the Wise King didn't hold Tianxu responsible for my sake, Tianxu would have died tomorrow. Do you still think that my punishment for Tianxu is too heavy?"

As soon as Gao Yanqing said this, all the members of the Gao family fell silent and began to unconsciously move away from Gao Tianxu.

"Impossible? This is absolutely impossible? How could this Wang Lin be a virtuous king?"

Gao Tianxu spoke loudly, and all the Gao family members in the prison could hear it clearly.

Gao Yanqing shook his head. "Nothing is impossible. Wu Yuanjie and Zhou Wanli have already confessed to your framing of His Royal Highness the King."

"His Royal Highness the Wise King said that he would bring our Gao family to Fengyang City when he returns to the capital. Gao Tianxu, because of you, our Gao family's savings of more than 200 years have been destroyed in one day. Do you think that Grandpa should expel you from the family?"

Gao Tianxu said with a dull look in his eyes and a dejected look: "Grandpa is right. It is my grandson who has harmed the Gao family."

Gao Yanqing nodded and said, "After we leave River Valley City, you and your family must live a good life and take good care of yourselves."

"Thank you, Grandpa. I will."

Gao Yanqing looked at everyone and said, "If you don't have any objections, then Tianxu's matter is settled. It's the fault of the father if he fails to educate his child. As Tianxu's father, Jiaxiong should pay the price for this matter."

"The head of this family once again announces a decision. From now on, Jiawei will replace Jiaxiong as the new eldest son of the Gao family, and Tianyang will replace Tianxu as the new eldest grandson of the Gao family."

As soon as Gao Yanqing made this decision, Gao Jiawei and Gao Tianyang stepped forward and saluted, "Don't worry, father. I will definitely help you manage the family and let the Gao family return to its former glory as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, Grandpa. I will study hard and take the imperial examination in Fengyang City one day to bring honor to our Gao family."

Gao Yanqing nodded with a look of satisfaction, "Okay, okay! As long as you and your son have confidence."

Some are happy and some are sad. Gao Jiawei and Gao Tianyang are honored as the eldest son and grandson, so they are naturally very happy and have great ambitions.

Gao Jiaxiong was just the opposite. He not only lost his position as the eldest son, but also lost his only son. From now on, he will have no say in the Gao family. Naturally, he was worried and dejected at this moment.

After the Gao family's problem was solved, Gao Yanqing then remembered the other fifty-three great aristocratic families in the Heavenly Prison. He then came to the prison gate and spoke loudly to the corridor outside.

"My fellow family heads, I'm sure you've all heard about what happened in my Gao family. Now even I've been locked up. It's not that I, Gao, don't want to help you, but my Gao family can't even protect itself, so I really can't help you!"

"Hey……"

As soon as Gao Yanqing finished speaking, sighs sounded in the Heavenly Prison. In fact, from the moment Gao Yanqing was thrown into prison, everyone knew that Gao Yanqing could no longer be relied upon.

On that day, the Mirror and Inspection Division posted notices everywhere in Hegu City, emphasizing the harm of literary inquisition and the fact that Wu Yuanjie and Zhou Wanli would be publicly beheaded on the West Market execution platform at 3:30 p.m. the next day.

At the same time, the news that Wu Yuanjie and Zhou Wanli used the so-called anti-poem to frame Lin Feng, as well as the news that Ziyun, Ziyan and Lin Feng spent the night on the boating lake, quickly spread throughout the entire River Valley City.

Suddenly, the people of River Valley City became lively, pointing and talking...

"This literary inquisition is too horrible. Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Wise King discovered the harm in time and took strong measures to eliminate this trend. Otherwise, if it were allowed to spread throughout River Valley City, we would probably not even dare to write poetry in the future."

"Wu Yuanjie and Zhou Wanli are so abominable. They actually said that the poem written by His Royal Highness the King of Xian was a rebellious poem and used it to frame His Royal Highness the King of Xian. It's a pity that they chose the wrong target this time. They deserve to die."

"Wu Yuanjie and Zhou Wanli have relied on the power of the Wu and Zhou families to bully people in River Valley City for many years. Now they have finally offended someone they cannot afford to offend. God is really watching over us!"

"I really didn't expect that Wang Lin, the champion of the poetry competition at the Boating Lake yesterday, was actually His Royal Highness the Wise King. No wonder Ziyun and Ziyan chose to travel with Wang Lin on the Boating Lake."

"Of course. His Royal Highness is a saint recognized by the world, and his achievements in poetry are unprecedented. The poetry of Wu Yuanjie and Zhou Wanli are not even on the same level as that of the King."

"I heard that the flower boats of the two masters Ziyun and Ziyan drifted on the boating lake all night and only returned to the Poetry and Literature Building early this morning. It seems that the two masters have already found lovers."

"Hahaha! Since ancient times, beauties have been paired with heroes. The two great ladies Ziyun and Ziyan are together with His Royal Highness the Wise King. It can be said that they are a match made in heaven!"
