"Also, those hundreds of courtiers and officials have been kneeling at the gate of the Tai Chi Hall. Will they be tired, and will their knees hurt?"

"If I go back and make some knee pads and cushions that can be hidden in the robe, maybe I can make a fortune."

"Let me tell you, my lords, it's getting dark outside, can we go home from get off work, why should we go..."

Before he could finish speaking, he received looks from Du Ruhui, Li Jing, and Fang Xuanling that could kill him ten thousand times.

Especially Du Ruhui, who glared at him and said, "You said you lost money all day, don't you?"

"When is this, you still have the mind to think about so many messy things?!"

"Look at the matter of Fan Xing now, according to what you said, the emperor made the order."

"But it turned into such a mess."

"If this continues, the entire Tang Dynasty may be paralyzed."

"No one can afford such a loss!"

"If this matter doesn't settle down, you kid still want to go home from get off work?!"

On the other side, in the imperial study room, Li Shimin was in a fit of anger, walking up and down the room irritably.

As for Changsun Wuji, he stood quietly aside.

"Before I made this decree, I had doubts in my heart."

"It's a good thing right now. This decree will directly kill this game of chess, and there is no way out."

"Those people, officials from the three provinces and six ministries, are still kneeling there."

"How do you say this will end?"

At this moment, Changsun Wuji was furious and said angrily, "Your Majesty, these bastard officials are clearly trying to blackmail His Majesty."

"I don't want to keep any of Yichen's temper, let them get rid of them all!"

"Give them a great taste too!"

Li Shimin glanced at him angrily, "Get them all out?"

"Then the one who takes over is still the same family and noble son?!"

"If that's the case, wouldn't the world be in chaos!"

"Tell me, what should we do now?!"

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji sighed softly.

"Alas, as His Majesty said, it has become a situation of life and death at the moment."

"If we retreat at this time, then Fan Xing will die, and everything we have done before will be in vain."

"And it will set a bad precedent. Once these courtiers have tasted the sweetness, there will be a second and third time in the future."

"If there is a way, I don't have it here."

"However, since this knot is caused by Li Qiu's death, why not continue to entrust this matter to him, and see if he can find a solution to the problem?"

"Li Qiu?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin's sigh became more intense.

"This is an important matter for the imperial court. It is related to the operation and government affairs of the entire Tang Dynasty. It is not a child's play!"

"If he is allowed to mess around, he might cause some big trouble!"

"At that time, if I bump into and kill a few more censors and courtiers at the gate of the Tai Chi Hall, I will be named in the history books because of it!"

However, after pacing and sighing for a while.

Li Shimin, who really couldn't find a second way to go, waved his hand and agreed to Changsun Wuji's suggestion.

"Then according to what you said, leave it to Li Qiu to deal with it."

"But you have to keep an eye on it, don't expand the situation further, don't make any trouble!"

……

Afterwards, the eldest grandson Wuji, carrying Li Shimin's will, hurried to Shangshu Province, where Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing, and Li Qiu came.

When he came here, he only saw Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Li Jing there with sad faces, like wooden people, and they didn't speak much.

But Li Qiu was fine, bored, he lay down on the table and fell asleep.

Seeing this, Changsun Wuji was furious and immediately started to pat him.

"Good boy, now because of your idea, the entire imperial city, including His Majesty's, is in a state of unrest."

"But you are lucky, you can still sleep in?!"

Chapter 324 Your Majesty Has Orders

At this time, Li Qiu called out with resentment on his face, "Oh, my eldest grandson."

"It's dark today, and I haven't eaten yet."

"My lord Fang, my lord Du, and Marshal Li Jing still hold me back."

"Why do you have to embarrass yourself because of those kneeling bastards?"

Changsun Wuji glanced at him angrily at this time, "Your Majesty has orders, and you will have full power to deal with the courtiers kneeling outside the Tai Chi Hall."

"Before they leave, you don't want to go home again, just stay in this palace and stay with them!"

Li Qiu raised his head at this moment, "Master Changsun, did His Majesty really say that?"

"Give me full authority to deal with this matter?"

Looking at the boy's shining eyes, Changsun Wuji felt regret and worry inexplicably.

"This... His Majesty said so."

"But you kid must not mess around!"

After being confirmed, Li Qiu finally regained his energy, stood up and stretched his muscles.

Seeing him like this, Fang Xuanling also asked worriedly, "Li Qiu, where are you going?"

Li Qiu looked at them in surprise, "Of course I'm going to meet those adults at the gate of the Tai Chi Hall."

"Send them all home earlier, and I can get off work earlier to drink, right?"

Hearing what he said, Changsun Wuji and the others couldn't help but get a little dizzy.

"I can tell you, kid, that this is a major national event, and you can't let your kid mess around."

"You can't make any brute force and outrageous moves."

After speaking, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui also stood up, ready to go out together.

But Li Qiu hurriedly stopped him, "Oh? My lords, where are you going?"

Everyone looked at him with a questioning expression, "Where are you going?"

"Of course I went with you to the Tai Chi Hall."

"Could it be that you still plan to go over there by yourself?"

Li Qiu nodded as a matter of course, "Of course I went there alone."

"Just bring some guards and servants along."

Upon hearing his words, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling shook their heads like rattles.

"No, no, no..."

"If you are a fool and cut off all those courtiers, it will be a big deal!"

"We still have to go with you!"

Li Qiu chuckled at this time, "The weapon in my hand only kills Turks and insults foreign countries."

"I really don't bother to treat them."

"Besides, in the palace of Taiji Hall, with so many imperial guards around, I can't do it even if I want to."

"My lords, now you and Your Majesty have been forced to death by them."

"There is only a compromise."

"As long as you show up, this matter can't be discussed at all."

"So now, or as His Majesty said, leave it to me to handle it."

"Or just a few adults, you can come forward and solve it yourself."

Seeing Li Qiu show their cards, Li Jing, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and Changsun Wuji looked at each other.

In the end, I was still not at ease, and I reluctantly agreed.

At this moment, Changsun Wuji frowned and said, "They can stay, but I must go with you."

"At that time, I will hide in the distance, so that the courtiers will not find out, and at the same time, I will avoid any situation on your side."

In the end, the few of them reached an agreement, and Changsun Wuji accompanied Li Qiu to the Tai Chi Hall.

On the way, Changsun Wuji proposed to find a familiar general of the Forbidden Army in the imperial city to accompany Li Qiu to meet those officials.

In case Li Qiu is scolded by those ministers, he will be so angry that he will make a big mistake in a moment of anger.

Although this Li Qiu has the style of a general, he is far more sophisticated and calm than ordinary people of the same age.

But after all, he is a vigorous young man, easily angry and impulsive.

For his constant proposals, Li Qiu also kept rejecting them.

He said that no officials and generals would be required to accompany him. The fewer people there were, the easier it would be to discuss this matter.

Just when the two of them were about to pass through the Chengguang Gate, enter the palace from the imperial city area, and were about to arrive at the gate of the Taiji Hall, they unexpectedly saw a general of the forbidden army in the palace.

It was none other than Zheng Guang, the second master of the Zheng family who had a relationship with Li Qiu at the beginning, and later regarded Li Qiu as his sworn enemy.

At the very beginning, when Li Qiu robbed the execution ground and rescued Zhang Yungu, the Shenwu army under Zheng Guang's rule mutinied and almost caused a catastrophe.

Because of this, Zheng Guang was demoted from a general of the fourth rank to a general of the imperial army.

Later, it happened that Wu Jue, the concubine's daughter of Ying Guogong, would rather be Li Qiu's concubine than Zheng's direct daughter-in-law.

At that time, the city was full of disturbances, and the Zheng family was also humiliated.

Then the Zheng family initiated a wave of impeachment against the warrior Xun, and finally drove the warrior Xun out of Chang'an as they wished.

It was precisely because of that time that Zheng Guang voluntarily became a political bargaining chip and secretly took refuge in the East Palace.

In exchange for Donggong's support for the Zheng family's forces in this matter.

Therefore, the little bits and pieces of grievances and grievances have been accumulated. When Zheng Guang saw Li Qiu at this time, there was a cold light and a slight chill in his eyes.

"My subordinates will see my eldest grandson, King of Peking!"

Before and after Changsun Wuji and Li Qiu approached, this Zheng Guang was very natural, without any expression, and he usually greeted them both according to the procedure.

For him, Changsun Wuji, who had something on his mind, nodded, and planned to pass him by.

However, Li Qiu suddenly stopped his steps.

Although his emotions were very subtle, even the elder Sun Wuji of the old Jianghu couldn't find out.

However, Li Qiu was keenly aware of this subtle killing intent implied.

Seeing Li Qiu stop suddenly, Changsun Wuji frowned and turned to look at him.

"Li Qiu, things are urgent ahead, why did you stop?"

Li Qiu smiled at this time, "Master Changsun, don't you want to find a general to accompany me to the gate of the Tai Chi Hall?"

"I think it's General Zheng Guang, who happens to be acquainted with me."

Hearing his words, Zheng Guang's eyes flashed a hint of vigilance imperceptibly.

I don't know what this Li Qiu is going to do.

And Changsun Wuji also frowned at this time, and nodded after a little thought.

"Forget it, Zheng Guang is also a prudent person."
