Chapter 33: Forcing the Palace (II)
The dragon lifted his bowed body and let out a white breath at his cold hands, trying to warm them up.
He was so cold that his hands and feet were almost freezing.
This process may be more uncomfortable, but he thinks that things will be resolved, and Guan Kuo will be really wiped out, so he feels that it is worth it.
Their belief in Guan Kuo's killing comes from two kinds - first, Guan Kuo is the son of Guan Qinghe, cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, so as to prevent future troubles; Second, the forces behind Guan Kuo are making waves, so cut off their outstretched hands and make them jealous.
All the provinces in Chang'an are moving together, and there is nothing they can't do.
But it was just too uncomfortable.
He saw that beside him, Wen Yuejiu, who was still emotional just now, began to shake, panting constantly, and it seemed that he was a little unbearable.
Xu Jingyi stood in the distance, not kneeling on the ground like the dozens of court officials, seeing this, he couldn't help but sigh.
Xu Jingyi may not be sincere to His Majesty, but Xu Jingyi will not easily go against His Majesty's will, although the other party does not agree with what His Majesty has done, but he will not coerce His Majesty to make His Majesty unhappy like them.
Such people do not know whether it is right or wrong, whether it is a blessing or a curse.
Wen Yuejiu's body shook violently and fell backwards.
Long Ji and an adult behind Wen Yuejiu hurriedly supported him, pinched his middle man, and said, "Lord Wen, how do you feel?" Holding on, it may be tough, but Your Majesty will definitely give in. ”
Of course, Wen Yuejiu didn't faint, now is just the beginning, but because of his physical strength, he can't kneel, and now he is lying in someone else's arms, and he feels okay.
Just when Long Jihe asked about Wen Yuejiu's physical condition with concern, he saw Wen Yuejiu raise his hand and point in the direction of the palace, and couldn't help but turn his head to look over.
Beneath the large building, which symbolized nobility and supremacy, there was a faint palanquin, which looked small because of the distance and the comparison with the complex.
But the officials here would never really think that the palanquin would be small.
Gonggong Peng came out, but he didn't know what message of His Majesty he would bring.
While thinking about this, Long He saw that behind the sedan chair of Gong Peng, a long line of figures loomed, and he couldn't help but look slightly condensed, and opened his mouth to say:
"It's ......"
As the distance narrowed, they gradually saw that those people were all holding quilts in their hands.
Although these court officials were originally emotional, but they were staggered by the cold weather, and their momentum was gradually weakening, they all looked at the past, and they couldn't figure out what the one in the palace wanted to do.
Gonggong Peng was helped out of the sedan chair by the palace guards, and said with a smile in an old but shrill voice: "Your Majesty is loyal to the country, your body is weak, Your Majesty is considerate, let the old slave bring some quilts to pad your knees, if your body is too cold, you can tell the old slave, Your Majesty has said it, and the clothes are also available in the palace, you can add them." ”
The court officials here don't know the relationship between Guan Kuo and Qiu Jingshan at all, and therefore they don't know His Majesty's true attitude towards Guan Kuo, so they take it for granted that His Majesty will compromise soon.
Xu Jingyi, who was in the distance, pondered for a long time, took a few steps forward, and asked, "Is this ...... Did Your Majesty say anything else? ”
He at least thinks he is more familiar with His Majesty's character, so this ...... It shouldn't be!
Gonggong Peng looked at him with a smile and didn't speak for a long time.
Xu Jingyi was stared at by him, and his heart was a little hairy for a while, and he couldn't help but avoid his gaze, and his heartbeat accelerated a little.
He never dared to disobey His Majesty easily, this time he was really scared by the speculation that there was a terrible force behind Guan Kuo, so although he did not participate in the action of persecuting His Majesty this time, it was suggested by him, so his heart was very empty, for fear that His Majesty would blame him.
Gonggong Peng has been by His Majesty's side for so many years, he has seen all kinds of ministers, and he has long developed a pair of eyes that can see through, he knows that even if Xu Jingyi did not participate in kneeling and persecution, but Xu Jingyi must have a relationship in it, but he also knows that Xu Jingyi was an obedient "good boy" in the past, so he has that kind of look that seems to be smiling but not smiling.
After a long time, Gonggong Peng spoke: "There is nothing else, but the old slave sees that your face is not very good, if you are not feeling well, it is better to go back early." ”
Xu Jingyi smiled, took a few steps back, and did not answer.
Xu Jingyi flinched slightly, but Wen Yuejiu, who had eased up a little, had a sad and indignant look on his face again, panting and shouting loudly: "Gonggong Peng, you must let Your Majesty know how much the ministers have been wronged, Guan Kuo, this traitor, is not very old, and he will be revenged, he is simply a dirty villain." The daughter of the minister, because she couldn't get used to what he did to bully Chang'an Street, said a few words to him, and was beaten unconscious by him, and she didn't know whether she was alive or dead. ”
"Gonggong Peng, tell Your Majesty that Long Fei, the son of the minister, was also killed half to death by that little traitor, the minister...... Minister......"
As he spoke, Long and Ben's tears flowed down again, and his voice became choked, revealing a look of desperate sadness, which made people pity.
Gonggong Peng felt funny in his heart, but it was not easy to poke it directly, so he took a slow step, took out a handkerchief from his arms, wiped it with Long He, and said: "Okay, okay, Lord Long, your loyalty, your grievances, the old slave knows, and Your Majesty also knows, but it is really not a wise move for you to coerce Your Majesty like this!" ”
"We believe that Your Majesty is wise and can definitely distinguish the traitor, and now General Zhenwu Wang Du does not know the details, and is bewitched, so that kid is still at large after hurting and killing people, hiding in the palace to watch the play, only Your Majesty speaks, so that General Zhenwu, who is still in the dark, knows the truth, can make decisions for us!" Long Jihe's tears were just wiped away by Gonggong Peng, and then fell again, he looked miserable and miserable, really like a poor old man who lost his son.
"If you want me to say, Lord Long, it's not worth it for you to do this, now Your Majesty is angry, he wants to make a career in Chang'an, who knows that it's only been a few days, and it's become like this, you come here outside the palace gate and let the old man be the master, how can he easily accept your coercion, so ah, either you go back quickly, Your Majesty will give a satisfactory explanation, or, then put on a few more clothes, kneel on the quilt, and decide to spend it with Your Majesty."
