Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Regarding this, Guo Ye didn't dare to explain in front of the room, let alone look up at His Majesty Li Er with a clear conscience. He could only say one sentence silently in his heart: Your Majesty, please forgive me, I have my difficulties, but please be patient for the time being, Your Majesty. It will definitely win this round for you!

Of course, there were also those in the court who felt a burst of gloating and shouted luck, for example, Changsun Wuji was one of the best.

He couldn't wait to rush to Guo Ye and Hou Junji's side, and shouted to His Majesty Li Er: "Your Majesty, let me draft the imperial decree on re-appointing Qian as the crown prince and heir, and make it known to the world? "

"Hehe, if you want to do it so much, then let you do it."

His Majesty Li Er cast a contemptuous glance at Changsun Wuji, and suddenly found that the Duke of Wei, Li Jing, seemed to be missing from the court, and asked casually, "Why haven't you seen Duke of Wei, Li Jing recently?"

Dong Shun, who was waiting for Luanjia beside him, reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this morning, Mr. Qian Wei, the Duke of Qianwei, asked the people in the mansion to give you a booklet, saying that he is not in good health recently and cannot go to the court to listen to the emperor's instructions."

"Oh... I remember..."

His Majesty Li Er sighed a little decadently: "Oh, my minister is sick, walking away, not here... Changsun Wuji!!!"

Changsun Wuji suppressed his excitement, and responded excitedly: "The minister is here!"

"Leave this to you!"

After His Majesty Li Er explained to Changsun Wuji, he sneered at Hou Junji again: "Hou Junji, the Crown Prince will appreciate you."

After finishing speaking, he slowly left the dragon chair, and said to Dong Shun rather gloomyly: "Dong Shun, retreat from the court!"

Before Dong Shun could open his mouth to announce his withdrawal from the court, His Majesty Li Er had already left Longting on his own, and slowly left towards the inner palace surrounded by a group of maids.

"The emperor has a decree, retreat from the court!!!"

After Dong Shun raised his voice and shouted for approval, he also followed the direction in which His Majesty Li Er left.

The emperor left and announced his retirement, but most civil and military officials did not leave, but stayed in the Qinzheng Hall for a while.

Guo Ye didn't want to stay here any longer, so he took the lead to leave alone.

Immediately afterwards, Kong Yingda, Chu Suiliang and others also left one after another, followed by Wei Zheng, Wei Ting and others.

Only the big and small officials of Tiance Mansion's old ministers still stayed in the hall, laughing and laughing, as if the crown prince's restoration heralded their spring is coming.

At this time, Guo Ye, who had already left the hall, was walking like flying, and vaguely approached the gate of the palace.

At this time, he noticed that someone was chasing and calling him behind——

"Mr. Pingyang, please stop!"

"Master Guo, please go slowly, wait, wait for Hou~~"

Hearing the sound, Guo Ye stopped, turned his head to look around, there was indeed someone calling him, especially not someone else, it was Duke Junji of Lu Kingdom who had been making a big splash in the court just now.

In an instant, Hou Junji chased after him, came to Guo Ye's side to calm down and gasped for a while, then cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Mr. Guo, thank you very much just now."

The corner of Guo Ye's mouth twitched unnaturally, he shook his head and said, "Mr. Lu, you don't have to thank me, and I'm not helping you."

"Yes yes yes~"

Hou Junji was in such a good mood that he didn't mind the previous sarcasm in class, nor did he show his prince's score in front of Guo Ye, but continued to smile and nodded and said: "That's right, it's Hou who is too far-fetched. Yes. From now on, you and I will be friends all the way, and we need to get closer."

Guo Ye shook his head, took two steps back subconsciously, waved his hand and declined politely: "It's okay to get close, I'm not the same as you, hehe, it's better for everyone to be clear, don't mess around with each other. Okay, there are many people here. , I won’t chat with Lu Guogong any more, so I’ll leave!”

After all, Guo Ye didn't give Hou Junji any face, turned his head and walked, and strode out of the palace gate in a hurry.

Hou Junji put a cold butt on his hot face, and today he ran into a wall with Guo Ye again and again, and suddenly felt embarrassing and embarrassing.

Although he knew that Guo Ye's reluctance to contact him was because he was worried about arousing suspicion from others and ruining the emperor's great affairs.

But Guo Ye was so shameless and merciless, it really annoyed him a little. He felt that Guo Ye didn't think much of himself, and an atmosphere of being humiliated filled his heart...

He watched Guo Ye's back gradually walking out of the palace gate, frowned, spat on the ground, and sneered coldly: "Hehe, are you not the same as me? Hmph, then if you Guo Ye is capable, don't respect the Supreme Emperor." Acting according to the will? Bah!! It seems that I, Hou Junji, was born to be a bitch, so I had to be labeled as a little Pingyang County Duke like you. Tsk...what are you pretending to be, a sanctimonious appearance, I bah!!!"

Chapter 1001

Regarding Hou Junji's overtures, Guo Ye didn't show him a good face on the spot, and walked out of the palace in a flash.

However, after leaving the palace, Guo Ye did not return to his home in Taipingfang, but went straight to Duke Wei's mansion, nominally to visit Li Jing who was recovering from his illness at home, but actually continued the unfinished topic from last night.

When he came to Duke Wei's mansion, Guo Ye found that many people's hands and feet were faster than him. When he heard that Duke Wei was recuperating at home, he immediately drove his servants and cars to visit him.

As far as the eye can see, the front of Duke Wei's mansion is already crowded with traffic and people.

However, all the guests who came to visit Li Jing were blocked by the gatekeeper of the Duke of Wei's mansion. Li Jing's housekeeper was standing at the gate, waving his hands, and shouting hoarsely: "Everyone, my master has an order to recuperate from illness." It is inconvenient to meet guests during the period. So, haha, please forgive me, forgive me!"

After hearing this, everyone was naturally disappointed and disappointed, and wanted to take advantage of this good time to get close to Li Weigong and sell it.

This time the bamboo basket was empty.

Many impatient people had already left the mansion with gifts in their hands.

At this time, Guo Ye sneaked into the crowd, and whispered in his mouth while squeezing: "Hey, excuse me, sorry, I collided, excuse me~"

When Guo Ye squeezed through the crowd, Li Jing's butler noticed Guo Ye's arrival with a sharp eye, and immediately greeted him, "Ah, the Duke of Pingyang is here? My master asked the younger one to keep an eye on him, and told him to go to court in the morning." It will definitely rush to our house. It can be regarded as the little one waiting, come, come, please, please please..."

As he spoke, the butler hurriedly asked the porter to open the middle door, and welcomed Guo Ye in enthusiastically.

Many of the guests who were blocked in front of the mansion also recognized Guo Ye. Seeing that Guo Ye was warmly welcomed into the Duke of Wei, but people like himself were rejected, they were naturally unwilling in every possible way and shouted :

"Didn't it be said that Duke Wei is inconvenient to meet guests while he is convalescing? How can he go in?"

"Could it be that his surname is Guo's high position and power, and Duke Wei treats him differently?"

"That's right, you dog servants of the Duke of Wei's mansion, don't look down on others. Our family is also related to the Duke of Lu's family."

"No, my third uncle is still the Minister of the Household Department."

"That's right, it is said that the Duke of Wei, Mr. Li, is a bowl of water whether he is running the army or being a man. Look, you slapped yourself in the face today, right?"

……

……

At this time, the guests in front of Duke Wei's mansion were filled with righteous indignation and kept shouting.

Without the butler, there were still several concierges from the Li Mansion blocking the way. One of the concierges snorted coldly and spat: "What are you yelling about? Commander Guo Jungong, the leader of the army, is not only our master's close friend, hehe, but also with us. The young lady has a close relationship. In hindsight, we may not be sure, Guo Jungong may become the son-in-law of our commander-in-chief, and become the new son-in-law of our Duke of Wei. Just for this relationship, let alone our commander-in-chief is inconvenient to meet guests. Even if our commander-in-chief has tens of thousands of military affairs in his hands, we still have to see him. Okay, let's go, let's go~"

As soon as these words came out, another big gossip really broke out, causing an uproar among the crowd in front of the mansion.

Everyone was stunned and shocked, and they couldn't stop talking and whispering, talking a lot.

But even though they have different thoughts, there is still a common idea that lingers in everyone's minds and resonates, that is, if Guoye, the Duke of Pingyang County, is related to the Duke of Wei's mansion by marriage, it will really be so popular that it will turn purple. .

However, Guo Ye had no way of knowing the commotion at the front gate of the mansion and what everyone was thinking, because he had followed the housekeeper into the inner courtyard of Duke Wei's mansion and into Li Jing's study.
