Chapter six hundred and seventy second rare court

That night, the streets in Jinling City were brightly lit, and teams of barbarians holding torches were galloping. I don’t know how many sleeping people were awakened. Some people were shocked and suspicious when they heard the movement, so the people who got up had the courage to slim down the crack in the door and peeked out. When they saw the murderous faces of the soldiers coming and going with the help of the fire, they were all so scared that they shivered.

The next morning, thousands of households opened the door and saw that the streets were filled with garrison soldiers. The huge formations of Jinling people who had been peaceful for a hundred years were all frightened. You should know that compared to the rebellion on every few days, high-ranking officials and nobles lined up to behead their heads, and they were always rushing to raid their heads, and they were often raiding their families and exterminated their clans. The Jinling City of Dawu was used to being peaceful in the city of Jinling.

Even Wu Renyuan and Gao Zezhi, who were punished for crimes eight years ago, were not executed in the end. As for dying of illness on the road, the people of Jinling just heard about the result and were not under great pressure. Instead, the guys who had colluded with the Northern Yanqiu Safari Division had killed many people before. This was the rare lively scene in Jinling City. Everyone was very excited to watch the fun.

What's going on now? Is someone rebelling? Or is someone usurping power and seizing the throne?

Not only ordinary people were trembling, but even civil and military officials were also very concerned about running horses all night. When they got up early to go to court, they were already full of worries when they saw martial law all over the streets. When they finally gathered from all directions to the palace gate, almost everyone was busy whispering to the people they knew and inquire about the situation.

However, most people asked around but had no results. When someone remembered that he should ask the three prime ministers of the Political Affairs Hall, he searched around and found something strange. None of the three prime ministers came!

Now, the already shocked officials were immediately in an uproar. What does it mean to disappear the prime minister? Could it be that the horse race was the palace transformation who seized power last night?

Those who are interested couldn't help but search for the traces of General Xuanlong Yan Xu and Wudesikan Han Yu in the crowd. When they found that these two people who were equivalent to the emperor's confidant disappeared, some people began to look for the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Justice. After all, the people in the General Office of the Chief Censorship Department did not attend court, but their bosses always had some information, but the final result was that neither the Shangguan and the Siguan of the Ministry of Justice Department came!

At this time, the feeling of panic suddenly surged into everyone's heart. All those who were missing were the emperor's confidants. This situation was undoubtedly extremely abnormal. I originally whispered in private and even joked that if someone had planned to usurp the throne, the face was even pale, for fear that their crow's mouth would work, but there were also many marginal figures in the court who were surprised and suspicious.

If some people really make a desperate bet and succeed in the end, why don’t they get the news?

Just as this extreme panic inevitably spread, a small commotion suddenly broke out among the crowd located behind. As someone gave way out, the senior officials in front immediately recognized the two people who were walking towards this side.

One is Xiao Jingxian, the King of Jin who rarely attends court, and the other is Yue Qianqiu, who also rarely appears on this occasion. As soon as the legendary uncle and nephew appeared, one was smiling and calm, and the other was rigid and had a face that seemed to have someone owed him eight hundred taels. Some people were even more uneasy, but many officials who were originally worried about a palace change and such were immediately put their hearts back in their stomachs.

King Xiao Jingxian of Jin was taken in by the emperor who disagrees with the public and also gave him a high position as a prince and a prince. As for Yue Qianqiu... Well, people used to wonder if he was an illegitimate son of the emperor, so that he could be treated differently by the emperor. Now, because his adoptive mother has revealed rumors that the emperor has an illegitimate daughter, everyone's speculation has already broken through the sky.

A rebellious person like Yue Qianqiu is so filial to his adoptive mother who suddenly returns home. There must be a problem. If it is not his adoptive mother but his biological mother, then the situation will be very clear. The emperor must have treated him better than the fat man because he is biased towards his grandson!

But no matter what, if these two people appear here, it means that everyone behind them is safe and sound. In other words, nothing happened in the palace, but today's court meeting will definitely be made public!

Of course, Yue Qianqiu noticed the gazes that looked at him secretly, and he was really a little annoyed.

He met Xiao Jingxian unexpectedly at the gate of the palace, and then he had to bear the strange gazes around him when he was walking with others. In fact, if he had not been dragged out of bed early in the morning and learned that the palace had sent a message to him to go to court, and he had not had a night of sleep, he would have never ignored Xiao Jingxian and would have left the first time he met someone.

He didn't want to come in side by side with this guy, he seemed like a relative!

As for why he was absent-minded... Is this more necessary? Yesterday he explained to Princess Ping'an the news he received from Xiao Jingxian, and the seemingly weak but actually tenacious Emperor of Northern Yan did not cry, nor did he even show any weak and sad emotions. He could actually smile and comfort him.

"It's okay, Beiyan was not the first day of chaos. Your father valued Zhen Rong so much, not only because he was the former disciple of Qingcheng, but also because he had the ability and had a tough heart after experiencing great changes. If you believe in your father, he has always made plans and then acted, and he will definitely be safe."

Until now, he still felt that Princess Ping'an's words seemed to be echoing in his ears. If it were someone else, he would definitely laugh at this purely blind confidence, but he could only nod and agree in front of Princess Ping'an. However, he was very worried that once the situation in Beiyan really changed drastically, Princess Ping'an would not be able to hold on if the situation in the North Yan really changed drastically, Princess Ping'an would not be able to hold on if it was three or two shorts.

Human stress resistance is limited and it is impossible to withstand thousands of hammers!

Because he was upset, Yue Qianqiu didn't say a word to Xiao Jingxian along the way, and at the same time completely ignored the inquiring sight around him. Until a person blocked the way suddenly appeared in front of him. He was about to get angry and looked up and recognized his grandfather's successor, Li Changhong, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and then he could barely squeeze out a smile.

"Mr. Li."

"What a big deal!" Li Changhong hummed with a face, then grabbed Yue Qianqiu without saying anything. Before anyone could struggle, he warned, "This person's heart is almost in chaos. If you don't ask you who I'm looking for? Where are your grandfather and master?"

At this moment, I don’t know how many people were secretly thanking Li Changhong, who had stood up for this question for them, and they all raised their ears. Soon, they waited for a concise answer.

"Grandpa and Master are both in the palace!"

Seeing Yue Qianqiu's innocent face, Li Changhong was suddenly angry: "You said nothing! Last night, the soldiers outside were in chaos and messing around all night. I went out to ask questions myself and was stopped by someone. Early this morning, the streets were really good at gunpoint. I don't know how many soldiers were dispatched. When I ran here, I didn't see the three prime ministers and your master. If there was no reason, the whole Jinling City would be in chaos!"

Yue Qianqiu frowned, and saw Xiao Jing laughing as if he was not concerned about him, and went straight to his station squad. He could only say unhappily: "Isn't it because of the Beiyan Qiu Safari? Of course, the most important thing may be another news. Look, why don't you ask His Highness the King of Jin? Yesterday, he met me in front of the palace gate and said that the Beiyan Emperor was assassinated."

This is simply incredible!

Yue Qianqiu revealed such explosive news as soon as he saw that countless people were stunned around him, even Li Changhong looked surprised, and he said with a smile: "So, I thought, the emperor suspected that Lou Yingchang was led by someone who launched a coup in Beiyan, and then ran to our Dawu to make trouble, which made me Dawu uneasy and had no time to pay attention to the rebellious Beiyan. Therefore, the emperor started to clean up the remnants of Qiushousi last night."

Li Changhong pondered slightly, and agreed with Yue Qianqiu's guess. However, he had always known how cunning the boy was. He let go of his hand and snorted coldly: "Hu Chai!"

Seeing the Minister of Revenue, he left and left. As soon as he returned to the original place, several officials surrounded him and asked questions. Yue Qianqiu was not annoyed. He shrugged his shoulders with a smile, swept his eyes around, intending to find an empty seat and stand there. But he finally found a good place among the groups of officials. Before he could pass, there was a clapping sound coming from there.

People who often go to court know that they are going to start to Daqing Gate. Although Yue Qianqiu didn't know, he was still very good at following the crowd. He first stood there and waited until the officials skillfully stood according to their shifts. He finally found the two officials who knew when they went to court last time, and immediately stepped out toward them.

But just after he took two steps, a small yellow gate rushed over in front of him. He didn't even bother to breathe and shouted, "Young Master Ninth, the emperor announced you to go to Daqing Palace!"

As soon as these words were said, the other officials realized that today was the Imperial Palace, and then many people took a breath of cold air. First, in such court meetings, the people from the Eunuchs actually called Yue Qianqiu the Ninth Prince; Second, in the Daqing Hall, where the local area was limited, Yue Qianqiu, a strange man with a title but no official, could have a foothold!

Yue Qianqiu did not want to be special in today's occasion, but the emperor's words were unquestionable. He hesitated for a moment, and was not as bold as Princess Ping'an. After nodding, he asked indifferently: "Have the Emperor summoned me?"

"And His Highness, King of Jin."

Hearing this answer, Yue Qianqiu instinctively looked up in the direction of Xiao Jingxian. Seeing that there was such a small yellow gate in front of him, he happened to look at him, and with a smile on his face, he was immediately angry. However, he knew very well that the emperor summoned Xiao Jingxian for the sake of Beiyan, and summoned him, either for Lou Ying or Cheng Qianqian, so he immediately withdrew his gaze and gestured to the small yellow gate to guide him.

He rushed into the Daqing Gate first in front of a large number of senior officials from the Shangshu, then walked through the wide square in front of the hall, and then climbed up the high steps, and finally arrived in front of the Daqing Hall. Yue Qianqiu saw the emperor sitting on the throne in the center of the hall. On one side were three prime ministers, including the old man Yue, and on the other side were the Little Fatty and Li Chongming.

Yue Qianqiu's eyes fell on Li Chongming at the first time. Compared with the fat man who was intact, although Li Chongming, who had a miserable face, was wearing a pair of white cloth wrapped around his forehead. Coupled with his snow-white face, his body was so wide that his clothes looked wide. With the chair below, he looked extremely eye-catching.

The reason why it is eye-catching is that it is the main hall now, not the regular court or the temporary palace to discuss matters. Even the three prime ministers and the quasi-Crown Prince do not have a chair, but the prince Li Chongming is the only person sitting outside the emperor!

However, the fat man, who had been angry about this unequal treatment in the past, smiled so hard at this moment. When Xiao Jingxian and Yue Qianqiu came together, he even nodded slightly at the two of them and grinned, saying hello.

Seeing his reaction, Yue Qianqiu immediately knew that yesterday he broke Li Chongming's wake up and pretended to be impatient. After pulling Zhou Jiyue to a good fortune, the little fat man obviously performed well. Maybe he even received praise from the emperor. In addition, he knew very well that Li Chongming could get a chair at this time, so he was so generous.

He sighed inwardly that the fat man was growing more and more. He made Xiao Jing go first and walked one step behind and went into the hall to see him.

At this time, the dynasty had not started, and the etiquette was not that complicated. In addition, Xiao Jing took the lead in front of him, Yue Qianqiu bowed deeply as before, and then stood up straight. The emperor did not say anything, but pointed directly at the empty stands on both sides. At this time, Chen Wuliang spoke on his behalf.

"The King of Jin please stand under His Highness, and the Ninth Prince will support the old prime minister of Yue."

If this wasn't a court, Yue Qianqiu would go with his grandfather, there would be no problem at all, but at this moment, he bowed to answer, but he felt a little confused. Sure enough, when he came to Old Master Yue to stand beside him, he would be a low scolding.

"Boy, you did a good thing!"

When Yue Qianqiu saw that Ye Guanghan and Yu Jianzhong were looking at him, he could only whisper with aggrieved look: "Grandpa, I didn't do anything! Yesterday I was in the Jiawang Mansion Villa villa and I was desperate..."

"I didn't ask you how you were in the other courtyard. What you said was the good things you did in the Chief Administrator's Office!" Seeing that the young grandson next to him was indeed speechless, he snorted softly, "Let's go back and settle the score with you! Now stand honestly and listen honestly!"

Even without the instructions of Mr. Yue, Yue Qianqiu planned to stand honestly, listen honestly, and did not intend to make any trouble at the court meeting where officials gathered. However, as all the officials entered the Daqing Gate, the high-ranking people entered the hall, and the low-ranking people stood one by one in front of the hall, and then paid a visit to pay homage. His strange position was naturally seen by those who had a share in the hall.

After the initial complex etiquette and all the things that had been decided to be announced at the court meeting one by one, the officials inside and outside the hall finally waited for the emperor's words.
