Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Guo Ye lowered his head, cupped his hands and said: "I will do as you ordered. Before we succeed, it will always be a deal between us. I will do what I should do. I hope you will keep your word , after the matter is completed, release my brother. From then on, we will pay both money and goods, and we will never owe each other."

"Haha, don't worry Guo Aiqing, Gu will never treat any loyal person badly."

As soon as Li Yuan heard Guo Ye say this, his heart became more at ease, and he hurriedly said with a smile: "After the matter is completed, Gu also hopes that Guo Qing can stay, and a bright future is waiting for you."

Guo Ye said: "I will consider it, I will resign!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out of Yequan Palace, leaving the palace in a hurry.

Back home, Guo Ye came to the study and took out the letter written in the special code before. After reading it again, he smiled and said to himself: "Miji, don't let me down, you must give me safety Save Wang Bodang. Otherwise, you kid will not come back alive to see Lao Tzu."

After chanting, he put the letter on the candle, and burned it to ashes.

Call ~

He blew lightly, blowing away the ashes on the table, looked at the bright moon in the sky through the window, and said: "Old Xiucai Guan, you fucking owe me your life, do you understand?"

Afterwards, he blew out the candle and left the study, returning to Xiuxiu's bedroom.

The next day, Xiuxiu left the Pingyang County Duke's Mansion early in the morning on the grounds of going back to her mother to visit her relatives, and went to Huo Guogong's Mansion, which is also in Chang'an City.

In the afternoon of the same day, Huo Guogong Chai Shao, who was at home after becoming an official and unemployed, quietly went to Weiguo Gong's mansion, and had a long talk with Li Jing all afternoon.

At the same time, Guo Ye's cheap father-in-law, Wu Maocai, went to Kong Yingda's mansion as if he was running out of doors.

Huo Guogong's mansion is not within the surveillance range of King Lu and others.

Time passed day by day, outside the city, Hou Junji, who never spent the night in the barracks on weekdays, has been spending the night in the barracks of the Right Jinwu Guard for the past two days.

In the city, Guo Ye had already begun to mobilize and dispatch the 3 troops of the leading army guard mansion one by one, and stepped up patrolling in the city day and night.Even Guo Ye himself was dressed in armor with a horizontal knife on his waist, and he was in a wartime state ready to fight at any time.

In the early morning three days later, it was still daylight.

Guo Ye followed the order of Li Chengqian, the Prince of the Supervisory Kingdom, and led Zhang Jiujin, Wang Bajin and the other three brigades with a total of 5000 troops into the imperial city wearing armor and sabers, and stationed in the palace according to Li Yuan's will.

All of this was carried out in an orderly manner, without any confusion.

The morning mist recedes slowly, and the morning sun in the east rises slowly. The sparkling golden light pushes away the clouds and mist, splashes the sky and the earth, and the sky and the earth are bright.

Morning, here we come!

The sound of drums in the palace suddenly sounded, and the sound spread throughout the palace and the imperial city. Li Chengqian once again called the early court in the name of the prince of Jian Guo.

As the morning drum resounded, ministers of civil and military affairs poured into the gate of the palace one after another, lined up like a long dragon, and began to go to the palace one after another...

Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Tang Jian and other former ministers of Tiance Mansion entered the palace first.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Zheng, Wei Ting and other officials from the remaining party departments entered the palace.

Then, Kong Yingda, Chu Suiliang, Chen Kang and other officials from the Qingliu School of Scholars entered the palace.

At the request of the Crown Prince of the Jian Kingdom, today, even Li Daozong, Minister of Zongzhengsi, Li Yuanqing, King of Lu, Li Yuanxiang, King of Jing, Li Yuanfang, King Daoxiao, and other members of the royal family who were usually not allowed to participate in the government affairs, all went to the early court today.

Today's early dynasty gathered almost all the relatives and relatives of the emperor in Chang'an City, as well as civil and military officials with high status and high rank.

Almost, the lower part of the court hall is already full of people, overcrowded

When the time came, Prince Li Chengqian arrived late and hadn't appeared yet.

Under the court hall, some courtiers have already begun to discuss in private that today's morning court is different from the past, unless there are some earth-shattering resolutions or announcements, otherwise it will not be so unique.

With a cry from the eunuchs, Li Chengqian finally came out surrounded by the eunuchs!

The eyes of all the courtiers were all on Li Chengqian, but they didn't know——

Outside the main hall, the sun was already dim, dark clouds were billowing, and the sky was extremely oppressive, as if a storm that could arrive at any time was about to come~~

boom! ! !

Outside the main hall, above the sky, there was a sudden muffled thunder, which made Li Chengqian, who had just appeared, slip on his feet. If there were not a few servants behind who insisted on supporting him, he would have almost fallen to the ground.

After Li Chengqian stabilized his body, an eunuch who served beside him had good eyesight. He was afraid that the prince would make a joke and make a fool of himself. Minister, bow down!"

shhhhh~

As soon as the voice fell, all members of the royal family and ministers of civil and military affairs in the court all knelt down on the ground like a mountain, and roared repeatedly: "His Royal Highness, thousand years old, thousand years old!"

Chapter 1019

Li Chengqian sat on a newly added chair next to the dragon chair, posing as if the world is in my hands, waved at the two civil and military classes of the court hall, and shouted:

"Everyone is flat!"

After the announcement, the officials got up.

Now Li Chengqian is only temporarily acting as the supervisor of the country as the crown prince, so he is not qualified to sit on the golden dragon chair that represents the highest power of the empire, so he can only add a new chair beside the dragon chair.Otherwise, it would be a violation of etiquette and a big taboo.

Li Chengqian was about to speak, when suddenly a crimson figure appeared from the right side towards the class, it was Wei Zheng, who had always been straightforward and fearless of death, and took the appearance of remonstrance as his life's duty.

Wei Zheng came to the center of the court hall and shouted with a straight face, "His Royal Highness, I have something to announce!"

Li Chengqian looked at Wei Zheng inexplicably, and after cursing secretly, he asked with a smile of a virtuous corporal on his face, "What's the matter with Wei Qing's family?"

"Excuse me for my stupidity, may I ask His Royal Highness, what is today's important day?"

As Wei Zheng said, he pointed the jade wat board in his hand at King Lu, King Jing, King Daoxiao and others standing not far in front, and asked, "If it's not some important festival, I would be hard-pressed. King Daoxiao added it to Zongzheng Temple. Qing, the ministers who participated in the political affairs of the previous court can still understand. But King Lu, King Jing and others are just idle princes receiving annual salaries, why are they able to go to the early court today to participate in political affairs?"

"what?"

Li Chengqian was caught off guard by Wei Zheng's sudden attack, and it was hard to answer him so suddenly.

On the contrary, the hot-tempered King Jing managed to solve Li Chengqian's troubles by mistake. He jumped out and pointed at Wei Zheng angrily, shouting, "Wei Zheng, what do you mean by that? You are a petty subject, even the prince of the royal family dares to criticize you. Are your arms stretched too long? Don’t forget, even this country belongs to our Li family, so why can’t I wait for the royal family to go to the early court? You are courtiers with foreign surnames, don’t forget your identities.”

As soon as these words came out, there was a thousand waves of shock in the court hall.

Everyone knows that since his ascension to the throne, His Majesty Li Er has continuously emptied the power of Lu Wang, Jing Wang and other concubine princes, and he is worried that they will meddle in the government and cause chaos in the world.

At the same time, the courtiers are also hindering the increase of the power of the royal family, because only by limiting the power of the members of the royal family can these powers be dispersed to the hands of the ministers in the court.Therefore, from another point of view, imperial power and courtiers are opposites, one ebbs and another, nothing more.

This is also the reason why Guo Ye, in order to flatter His Majesty Li Er, deliberately produced a newspaper to promote the divine and inviolable imperial power, which aroused the extreme disgust of some ministers in the court.

Therefore, after King Jing's words came out, he offended most of the courtiers present.

For a while, the courtiers of the three lines put aside their prejudices again, united closely together, and criticized King Jing round after round.

Changsun Wuji came out of the class and shouted: "King Jing's words are wrong. What you do is not in line with the ancestors' rules, let alone the court etiquette."

Fang Xuanling came out and glanced at King Jing indifferently, and said, "There is nothing perfect without rules, King Jing, what you said is really too presumptuous."
