Chapter 639: Fierce Battles (Part I)
"Your Highness is back, is the Holy Dragon Body safe?"
Zhang Cambodia was busy in the study of the East Palace to deal with the excerpts about the promotion of overseas grain varieties from various state newspapers, when he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, and immediately raised his head.
"Well, tomorrow my father will go to the court."
Li Xian's interest was obviously not high, he strode behind the copywriter, lifted the hem of his robe, sat down, and responded a little sullenly.
"So that His Royal Highness will know that Dai Xiang and Hao Xiang have agreed to His Highness's recommendation, and the two Pei Xiang also expressed no objection to King Luo Bin being appointed as the Yin of Luoyang Mansion, and then counting His Royal Highness the King of Yue, now there are five people on the side of His Royal Highness in the Seven Phases of the Political Affairs Hall, so they just go according to the plan, and we will definitely win this battle!"
Zhang Cambodia was very shrewd, just one look at Li Xian's face, he had already guessed his thoughts, and he was just sad to give up his efforts to rescue Li Xian, but he didn't break it, but smiled and raised his fingers and reported some good news to Li Xian to divert Li Xianzhi's attention.
"This is very good, pass on the order of the palace, the guards of the East Palace will withdraw immediately, and the deployment of the 'Ming Di' will remain unchanged, and the 'Evergreen Firm' will be kept in the palace to be watched, if the chief person inside dares to move, it will be destroyed!"
Although he knew that Zhang Cambodia was speaking to explain himself, as soon as he heard that everyone was expressing his attitude, Li Xian's mood was still good, but he did not forget to beware of Li Zhen's secret hand, so he gave an order in a cold voice, and his heart was full of evil anger that could not be concealed......
"Lord Qiqi, the troublesome East Palace guards have retreated!"
Noon has passed, Li Zhen has no appetite, dark face, sitting behind a few sons, without saying a word, like a sculpture, such a gloomy appearance, the sons sitting below are silent, let alone talking, even the atmosphere does not dare to take a breath casually, lest accidentally touch Li Zhen's brows, obviously, the atmosphere in the study is not much better, dead silence and weird, people feel very suffocated, just when a group of people are suffocating to the extreme, The sound of hurried footsteps suddenly became louder, but I saw the housekeeper hurriedly rushing out from behind the screen, rushing to Li Zhen, and hurriedly said a word.
"Well, pass on the order of the orphan, let Zhang Chu and Yan Wanshan quickly withdraw with the information first!"
Hearing that the people of the East Palace had finally left, Li Zhen's tense face immediately showed a hint of relief, but she didn't show much performance, she just hurriedly commanded.
"But, but, ah, the prince, although the people in the East Palace have withdrawn, there are still many people staring around, Zhang Chu and people tried to leave, but they were blocked back, Zhang Chu was not angry, and the other party had a few tricks, suffered some small losses, and did not dare to break in again, so he had to report to the slave and maid urgently, the situation was weird, and the prince was asked to make a clear decision."
Li Zhen's order was very clear, but the housekeeper who came to pay attention showed embarrassment on his face, and did not act according to the order, but explained with a bitter face.
"What? That guy is so deceitful that we have already signed the excerpt, what else does he want! ”
Li Chong's temperament was irritable, and when he heard that the East Palace was so unrelenting, he was furious, and no matter what his father's expression was, he roared angrily.
"Father, that deceitful guy has taken the benefits of us and others, and he refuses to let go, it's really too much!"
Li Qian was obviously a little unable to hold back, Junxiu's face was full of shame, and she echoed from the side.
"Humph!"
Li Zhen was already very angry in her heart, and when she was so troubled by the princes, her face was a little unbearable, she snorted coldly, stood up, and walked away without even giving an explanation, leaving a room full of people looking at each other and not knowing what to do......
The last dynasty has always been a chore, for the ministers, Emperor Yu is no exception, as for the most bitter, in fact, it has to be regarded as the prince, not for anything else, just because the prince has to get up earlier than everyone else, and has to go around a big circle, from the Xuanwu Gate to the imperial city, waiting for the appearance of Gaozong and his wife outside the Qianyuan Palace, regardless of the wind and sun or rain, this ceremony is indispensable, no, the sky is not yet transparent, Li Xian is already quietly waiting outside the Qianyuan Palace.
Waiting is undoubtedly difficult, especially today will determine the direction of the next two or three years, once defeated, if you want to get it back, it will be difficult, Li Xian can't help but have some uncertainty, the biggest worry is Gaozong's body, in case Gaozong falls ill again, no matter how hard Li Xian tries, in the case of the Empress Wu's dynasty, it is difficult to have a few chances of winning, but now, Li Xian has nothing to think about except waiting.
"The sons knock to see the father and the queen mother!"
Waiting and waiting, just when Li Xian was waiting a little uneasy, in the midst of a loud sound of footsteps, Gaozong and his wife had already walked out of the palace under the escort of a large group of eunuchs and palace maids.
"Excuse me, excuse me, Xian'er and go with me."
Gaozong's complexion is very bad, his face is as pale as paper, it is difficult to see a trace of blood, his eye sockets are deep, the eye bags are black and big, he looks extremely haggard and old, and his mental state can be said to be extremely poor, that is, the moment he saw Li Xian, there was a bit of brilliance in his eyes.
"No, the son respectfully invites the father and the queen mother to get up."
Looking at Gaozong's sick and emaciated face, Li Xian's heart immediately swelled with palpitations - as a son of man, filial piety is an obligation, if it weren't for this political dispute is too important, Li Xian is 120,000 unwilling to let his old father suffer such a crime, but unfortunately the situation is forced, Li Xian also had to harden his heart, so he endured the guilt in his heart, bowed his head, and bowed down in response.
"Well, set up the Deyang Palace!"
Gaozong nodded, and didn't say much, flicked his big sleeves, and then made a will, all kinds of people saw this, and they didn't dare to delay a little, and the soft chariot was quickly carried over, and several small eunuchs supported them left and right, and escorted Gaozong and his wife to the two soft chariots respectively, and shouted loudly, and the team of people and horses rushed to the Deyang Palace......
"Your Majesty the Emperor, the Queen of Heaven has arrived!"
The group arrived at the apse of the Deyang Palace, each got off the soft chariot, Cheng Denggao led several small eunuchs to take the lead, Gaozong and his wife were in the middle, Li Xian followed a few steps behind, and when they were about to turn into the main hall, they heard Cheng Denggao shout, and the ministers who had been waiting in the front hall for a long time did not dare to slack off, and they all bowed and worshipped.
"The ministers will meet His Majesty the Emperor, and the Queen of Heaven will meet the Queen of Heaven!"
The courtesy of the ministers was quite loud, but there was a strange tense atmosphere inside, and it was obvious that everyone was afraid of the possibility of this early dynasty being fierce.
"Zhong Aiqing is flat."
Gaozong and his wife slowly walked up to the front and sat down side by side, but when they saw Gaozong stretch out his slightly trembling hand, he waved it lightly, and called out in a low voice.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long Grace, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
All the ministers obviously noticed Gaozong's weak state, and their moods were not very calm, some were secretly happy, some were worried, and some were indifferent, but at this moment, no one would have a side expression, all of them thanked them with respectful faces, and returned to the position according to the civil and military points, and Li Xian also sat down on the brocade pier under the front pier according to the court practice, and this marked the official beginning of the early dynasty.
"His Majesty the Emperor, the Queen of Heaven, Weichen has a book!"
The early dynasty was begun, but all the ministers were extraordinarily silent, no one wanted to shoot the first cannon, for a while the hall was quiet, no one was willing to come forward for a long time, the hall was quiet like a ghost, after a long time, finally someone couldn't help jumping out, everyone looked at it, and saw that it was the criminal department Shangshu Wu Chenghei, and immediately all of them were in a commotion, and the sound of private discussions suddenly rose, and the whole hall was noisy.
"Aiqing, I just have to play this chapter, I listen."
Seeing that Wu Chenghei was going to go to the capital, Gaozong's eyelids couldn't help but be a good jump, and he didn't want to pay attention to it in his heart.
"Wechen obeyed the order, and since the wechen were ordered to try the case, relying on the grace of His Majesty and the diligence of the Yamen, the case has been concluded. Deng Ji business name 'shopkeeper Deng Cheng is anxious for justice and righteousness, ruining the family for the country, anxious for the urgency of the community, pulling out grain to help the victims, in fact, the good deeds of the heavenly heart, the world is not admired, however, but the small generation disregards the righteousness, and blatantly attacks the granary at night, in a vain attempt to cut off the food of the victims, messing with my dynasty, according to investigation, this move is the abolition of the prince's remnants, the leader Chen Xiaotian, Zhu Kaizhi were killed on the spot, and more than 100 bandits scattered in the city, through the cooperation of our criminal department, the remaining bandits have been captured, after a thorough investigation, this move is the abolition of the prince's main envoy, the military department members of the Wailang Lu Qian, Dozens of officials such as Liu Wu and Liu Mingfu, the captain of the garrison battalion of Luoyang Prefecture, participated in the matter, and the evidence is as follows...... After the trial of the three divisions, the verdict is as follows: The abolished prince Li Xian is uneasy about the status quo, does not think about the immensity of the emperor's grace, and blatantly disrupts our society with his own selfish interests, and his crime is unforgivable, and he is the flesh and blood of the heavenly family, and cannot be punished, and should be given with three treasures...... As above, to smell! ”
Wu Chenghei came prepared, after a lot of things, melodious and frustrated, the evidence is detailed, the words are conclusive, coherent, and in one go, it is quite good to see the tongue.
"Buzz ......"
As soon as Wu Chenghe's voice fell, before Gaozong could express his attitude, the ministers and workers had already discussed privately in a chaotic manner, and the entire hall became a pot of porridge......
