He then bowed deeply to Chen Xizhen.
"If it weren't for the help of the military commander, my brother and I would probably have been killed in Tokyo by that treacherous Tong Guan long ago!"
"Please accept our bow, Commander!"
It turns out that Gou Huan, courtesy name Wubo, was from Weihui Prefecture, Henan Province.
His family are descendants of Gou Bian, a famous sage during the Warring States period.
Gou Huan's father, Gou Bangda,
In his early years, during the Zhenghe era, he served as the Commander of the Palace Guards.
He is loyal, honest, and fearless of those in power.
Because he disapproved of the eunuchs' behavior,
He often clashed with Tong Guan.
To fulfill his great ambition of being crowned a king
Na Tongguan had been planning to make peace with the Jurchens.
The two sides formed an alliance to launch a pincer attack on the Liao Dynasty!
Gou Bangda was also a man of insight.
Having seen through this scheme of using one tiger to devour another,
They will surely be devoured by tigers in the future.
He then repeatedly advised Zhao Ji,
Because of this,
Tong Guan harbored deep hatred for Gou Bangda...
Chapter 456 Auspicious Land
Therefore, Tong Guan made a false accusation before Emperor Huizong (Zhao Ji).
It is said that when he was an envoy to the Liao Dynasty,
I once saw Gou Bangda send a trusted family member to pay homage to the Liao emperor.
They also exchanged letters, leaking secrets of the Song Dynasty.
Emperor Huizong already trusted Tong Guan.
He also personally witnessed the forged letter from Gou Bangda that Tong Guan had prepared.
Furthermore, Gou Bangda was then the Commander of the Palace Guards.
He often met with the emperor.
If he truly had malicious intentions
As long as one is willing to risk assassination.
The emperor would certainly not survive.
Emperor Huizong of Song was a coward by nature.
Upon hearing this, he immediately flew into a rage.
They did not summon Gou Bangda for interrogation.
He immediately issued an imperial edict.
"330" kidnapped Gou Bangda.
They were taken to the marketplace and beheaded.
As the saying goes, "Cut the weeds and leave no roots, for they will grow back in the spring breeze."
Gou Bangda is dead.
Tong Guan knew that he had two other sons, both of whom were highly skilled in martial arts.
To prevent these two from seeking revenge later,
This Tong Guan, the Privy Councilor, then falsely conveyed an imperial edict.
Gou Bangda's family members were also escorted to Tokyo.
The plan was to exterminate his entire family.
This will also prevent future problems.
Gou Bangda's wife was heartbroken.
He committed suicide.
Only the brothers Gou Huan and Gou Ying were escorted to Tokyo.
Chen Xizhen admired Gou Bangda's character.
It is also known that he was harmed by a treacherous eunuch.
They tried every possible method.
They wanted to save the two brothers, Gou Huan and Gou Ying.
to this end,
Chen Xizhen even went so far as to seek help from Gao Qiu.
However, before Gao Qiu rose to power,
Although he had once acknowledged Chen Xizhen as his master,
But after he became wealthy...
However, he set his sights on a tomb in Phoenix Mountain outside Tokyo.
Gao Qiu heard from someone that...
The tomb is situated in a location where water embraces and sand encircles it, resembling a dragon soaring and a phoenix dancing.
If one could be buried there
Later generations produced many dukes, marquises, generals, and ministers.
However, this cemetery is already owned.
That owner was Chen Xizhen.
His wife, Chen, is buried in the tomb.
Gao Qiu had always wanted to seize this auspicious location.
Just then, Chen Xizhen came to him seeking help because of the trouble the two Gou brothers were in.
Gao Qiu then offered to exchange the tomb for it.
Chen Xizhen could only relocate his wife's coffin.
They offered the precious land to Gao Qiu.
Gao Qiu was indeed trustworthy towards Chen Xizhen, his adopted teacher.
He dispatched trusted confidants to rescue the brothers Gou Huan and Gou Ying during their escort.
He only sent someone to inform Tong Guan.
The two brothers escaped on their own.
Tong Guan was naturally furious.
We can only post it in various places.
The two Gou brothers, who had fled, were captured.
After this incident,
In just one month,
Gao Qiu died because Zhao Yuan attempted to assassinate Zhao Ji.
They were able to enjoy the Feng Shui treasure body they received from Chen Xizhen ahead of schedule.
........
After Gou Huan and Gou Ying escaped unexpectedly,
He then went to Maxing Town to seek refuge with Commander Zhen Xianglin.
This Zhen Xianglin was originally a beloved general under the command of his father, Gou Bangda, and his brother.
This person is from Qufu County, Shandong Province.
He had also received favors from Gou Bangda.
They didn't refuse.
They then took in the two Gou brothers.
Unfortunately, Tong Guan had sent men to search for them relentlessly.
They quickly began investigating Gou Bangda's former generals.
Seeing that things were about to be exposed,
Zhen Xianglin was indeed decisive.
He resigned directly from his post.
He led the two Gou brothers on a fugitive journey.
Unexpectedly, I met Chen Xizhen here.
When the two Gou brothers were rescued by Gao Qiu's trusted men,
It was then known.
It was Chen Xizhen who offered Gao Qiu the land for his wife's burial.
This is how the two survived.
The two brothers then met their savior.
I am extremely grateful.
"So that's it..."
Chen Xizhen listened to the two brothers recount their experiences over the past six months.
My heart was filled with countless emotions.
"I overheard the three of you discussing your next move just now,"
Chen Xizhen looked at the two brothers and tried to persuade them.
“You two are descendants of loyal and virtuous people, how can you follow those bandits and become outlaws in the mountains!”
"This general is right after all. You two should go to Yizhou Prefecture first!"
“Nowadays, bandits are everywhere in Shandong, and every village and town is training local militia to defend against them.”
"After I finish my business here, I also plan to go to Anle Village in Yizhou Prefecture to start a local militia."
"The three of you may come and find me then!"
"Once we have trained an elite force, we will march on and wipe out the bandits in various places."
"If you two can do something to help, you will surely be able to clear your family's name and bring glory to your ancestors."
"Your father's spirit in heaven must be at peace now."
"Thank you for your guidance, 2.0. We will certainly follow it."
The three of them quickly cupped their hands in response.
"By the way, may I ask what brings you here, my benefactor?"
Gou Huan asked,
"Perhaps we can also be of help."
