Chapter 538: Can't Go Out
"Gu Yunji?"
That Feiyuwei had obviously heard of Gu Yunji's name, and his eyes flashed when he heard this, and he said, "Wait a minute." ”
Soon, Feiyuwei walked down the city tower and came to Gu Yunji: "It turned out to be Lord Gu, the head of the household department, Your Majesty has a decree to order all palace gates to be closed, I don't know if Lord Gu has any important matters that need to enter the palace immediately?" ”
Gu Yunji frowned slightly: "Since it is His Majesty's order, how can you know nothing about what I am going to do?" Didn't they inform you? ”
Flying Fish Guard's face was slightly unnatural: "I...... I'm just down to do what I'm ordered, and I don't know what His Majesty has specifically ordered......"
Time was pressing, Gu Yunji didn't want to dwell on it for too long, but he also knew that this was the other party's responsibility, so he said: "If you don't know, go and ask your superior for instructions, let him explain it to you, and we will wait for you here." ”
"Can it be......" Feiyuwei responded, but his eyes glanced at Li Jinze on the side, "But before I ask for instructions, please ask Master Gu to tell me, who is this person?" ”
The young man in front of him was embarrassed, described as in a hurry, but from head to toe exuded a luxury that was extremely contrary to his appearance, and it was not simple at first glance.
Emperor Jingfeng doesn't see it well, now is the time to be sensitive, and any superfluous behavior may cause extraneous branches. Gu Yunji wanted to bring Li Jinze to Emperor Jingfeng as soon as possible, and was a little impatient with this grinding Feiyuwei at the moment: "He is the person who is with me, as for his identity, it is not for you to know." ”
Hearing this, Feiyuwei smiled, and his tone became fearless: "Lord Gu's words are wrong, Your Majesty ordered Feiyuwei to temporarily take over the palace gate, and no one is allowed to enter and exit at will, and the duty of guarding will naturally fall to us and others." ”
"Master Gu, I know, you have once saved the driver, and you are a close and trusted minister of His Majesty. It's just that...... This person is not well-described and behaves strangely, I don't dare to put anyone of unknown origin in it......"
As he spoke, Feiyuwei glanced at Li Jinze a few times unscrupulously, and his words were quite contemptuous.
"Presumptuous!"
When has Li Jinze been treated so rudely, he was in a hurry to see Emperor Jingfeng, and he was stopped outside the palace and couldn't enter, so he was furious for a while, and reprimanded: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly, I am the prince of the dynasty!" Father ordered Lord Gu to take me into the palace immediately, you dare to stop me from delaying the big thing, but don't you want your own head! ”
"Too, too ...... His Royal Highness the Prince?! ”
Feiyuwei was shocked when he heard this, his face instantly turned from red to white, and seeing that the two of them did not seem to be fake, he didn't dare to entangle anymore, and hurriedly turned around to report to Shangguan.
Not long after, a higher-grade Flying Fish Guard walked out, and when he saw Gu Yunji and Li Jinze waiting outside, his eyes flashed, and he quickly squeezed out a smile and trotted up to greet him: "It turned out to be His Royal Highness the Prince, and the minister is a thousand households of Flying Fish Guard, named Hu Shan." ”
As he spoke, he pretended to glare at the previous Flying Fish Guard, and then turned around and said with a smile: "Your Highness, forgive me, my subordinates are stupid and ignorant, I didn't know that Your Majesty summoned you to the palace, and I ask Your Highness not to blame you......"
Li Jinze suppressed his anger and said impatiently: "Less nonsense, open the door quickly." ”
Hu Shan said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, let them open the door...... Your Majesty has already instructed the ministers to pick up His Highness and Lord Gu. Your Highness, rest assured, there is time, we will be able to reach His Majesty's dormitory within half an hour. ”
Li Jinze's mind was full of Emperor Jingfeng's serious illness and summoning him, so he didn't have time to think about it, so he followed him into the palace.
After a few people walked in, the heavy palace door behind them closed again, making a dull sound.
Gu Yunji was startled by the sound of the door closing, and when he looked back, he saw that the palace door was closed, and the high walls on all sides covered him like a boxy cage, gloomy and gloomy, which made him inexplicably panicked.
"Master Gu, what are you looking at?"
“…… Ah, nothing, here it comes. ”
Gu Yunji came back to his senses suddenly, and saw that Hu Shan and Li Jinze were waiting for him in front, so he hurriedly shook off the messy thoughts in his mind and quickly followed.
——
In a large hall somewhere in the palace, hundreds of officials gathered here in a noisy manner, and their mood gradually became anxious.
An official paced back and forth a few times, but he couldn't wait any longer, and just wanted to go out, he was stopped by the palace attendant at the gate of the main hall: "My lord, Your Majesty has a decree, please wait here for a while, and you must not leave the palace for a single step during the period." ”
The official had a temper and immediately shouted when he heard this: "Wait, wait! When will I go? ”
"I have long said that His Majesty summoned us to the palace, but when we entered the palace, we were not allowed to face the saint, saying that we should wait here first, this is almost two hours, and it will be dark if we wait any longer, so we will not be able to spend the night here!"
Someone immediately chimed in: "Yes! Your Majesty urgently summoned hundreds of officials into the palace, presumably there is something important to announce, I rushed to the palace before dawn today, and I haven't seen Your Majesty's shadow yet, what about Your Majesty? I want to see Your Majesty! ”
The officials waited for nearly two hours, and they were already impetuous, but now they were even more like a fried pot, and they were swarming in the hall and shouting.
And Fang Zigui sat on the side drinking tea leisurely, looking very calm, as if all this had nothing to do with him.
"Fang Zigui!" Seeing this, an official suddenly became angry and said in a loud voice, "You explain to us what the hell is going on!" You were the first to ask us to wait here, saying that it would not be long before Your Majesty summoned us, and two hours have passed, what about Your Majesty? ”
"What's the hurry?" Fang Zigui put down the teacup unhurriedly, "Your Majesty said that he wanted to summon us, so he will naturally summon us, just wait." ”
Someone sneered: "Heh, of course you are not in a hurry, you are a close confidant of King Wu, and now King Wu is serving in the palace, as long as he has a word, you are free to enter and exit the palace, but we are trapped in the main hall and can't get out." ”
"Your Majesty has been ill for several days, and this time he suddenly summoned us into the palace, there must be something of great importance, and there is no reason to hang us here. Maybe...... It was someone who deceived the superiors and subordinates, and deliberately trapped us here to delay time in the name of His Majesty. ”
Fang Zigui's eyes were slightly cold: "What do you mean?" Are you saying I'm making a false proclamation? ”
"You said that, I didn't say it."
The official flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly: "You keep claiming that Your Majesty asked us to wait here, but we haven't seen the holy decree from beginning to end, and we haven't received corroboration from others, Cheng Shoufu and Master Gu are not here, aren't you allowed to say two words and question you?" ”
Fang Zigui looked at him deeply, and then chuckled: "Yes, of course, you can say whatever you like, even if it is to say that I am falsely preaching the holy decree, it is your reasonable suspicion." ”
But in the next moment, Fang Zigui's smile rose, and he suddenly showed a fierce color: "However, it's useless for you to doubt, I said that if you can't go out, you can't go out, and no one can step out of the hall." ”
