The glory of Tang Dynasty(71)

"Princess Dynasty?"

Li Zhi wiped half of his face and threw away the handkerchief, "What happened?"

Liu Ren shook his head, "Liu De didn't know! This was very sudden. His Highness got up early, and Ma ordered him to hand over a sign saying that the princess was attending the royal court."

Li Zhi pondered, and there hasn't been much trouble recently. Tong'er knows how to advance and retreat very well, and she also tries her best to deal with the relationship between the prince and the queen to ease the relationship between mother and child. She is a particularly measured child, she must be

Something big happened.

Liu Ren put the imperial crown on the saint, thought for a while and said, "Liu Rengui, Liu Xianggong has returned victoriously. Today is the first imperial court. The princess is concerned about the war in Silla."

No! The prince went to invite him in person before, and she had never gone to the Ministry of War, so it must not be this matter.

Liu Ren also frowned. He really didn’t know what else was going on! He didn’t dare to speak now. The saint was a little upset because of King Qi. The subordinates suddenly participated in King Qi’s overstepping the rules and had a disobedient heart. This...

...Blind! Wouldn’t it be great if King Qi really had this ability?

The sage is well aware of the root cause of this matter. However, on the one hand, the queen today is not an ordinary queen and has always had authority; on the other hand, the queen is the biological mother of the prince and has six children. The sage sometimes has to

He had no choice but to compromise with the queen.

The queen understands the saint. Compared with two and six, the saint can only choose to save the six princes and princesses on this side!

No, I didn't sleep again last night and was about to go to court. I wiped my face with an ice handkerchief. At this moment, something happened again.

But the princess did not go to the palace to inform the saint in advance... This is not appropriate! Look at the saint's anxiety. He only used one egg for breakfast, drank a glass of milk, and didn't even move his chopsticks. This was considered to be the end of breakfast.

Look at the time, it's still early! Liu Ren asked, "Slave, will you go to the palace gate to welcome the princess?" I want to inquire by the way.

Li Zhi shook his head, "Tong'er is sensible!"

"Then...do I need to inform the Queen and the Prince?"

Well! Ask someone to pass on the message.

So Shangguan Wan'er got the news and reported it to Empress Wu who was about to go out, "I don't know why. The princess has not told anyone in advance. I have already sent someone to see the princess at Yanmen!"

Empress Wu said "hmm" and looked at Shangguan Wan'er up and down calmly, "Follow me."

Gao Yanfu glanced at the little girl, stepped aside, and gave up his position to Shangguan Wan'er.

Today is also special for Shangguan Wan'er. This is the first time she accompanies the queen to the Purple Chen Palace.

In the Zichen Palace, the civil and military ministers were standing in two groups. They were discussing something in low voices with each other. Suddenly, they were speechless. Some of them were poked and motioned to look towards the door of the hall without realizing it.

I saw the princess standing outside the main hall at this time! How long had this princess not shown up? Why are they here now? They haven't asked each other yet, and this princess walked in with her feet raised.

One by one, they quickly arranged their court uniforms and bowed down to show their courtesy. Lin Yutong returned the favor as a colleague in Jinjiang Literature City because of his infinitely good writings, and then he calmly stood among the distinguished nobles, ranking first.

Just after standing up, before the princes could ask what they were saying, a call came from outside: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived - just after three calls, Li Xian strode in, and as soon as he came in, he rushed towards Lin Yutong.

.Lin Yutong saluted first, "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Emperor" wanted to call her "Emperor Sister", but this is above the main hall! You have to be selfless to stand here. There are no family affairs here, only state affairs! There are no family members here, only monarchs and ministers! He supported her and said, "Princess Protector is exempt from the ceremony."

."

Above the main hall, in front of the courtiers, the two of them could not agree on anything.

Lin Yutong patted Li Xian's hand lightly, and Li Xian understood. The emperor meant that it was okay, not that something serious had happened.

That’s okay!

Li Xian went up the imperial steps and stood on the side.

Lin Yutong stood quietly, not looking at anyone. There was no Li Xian or Li Dan in this court. The princes of the Tang Dynasty were different from the princes of the Qing Dynasty. They were officials and could hold practical posts, such as Li Shangjin.

The official who serves as the governor of Cizhou has been serving as governor, but he did not find any problems in government affairs when he was framed. It can be seen that although he is honest and honest, he is a governor, even if he is mediocre and has not made much achievements, he has not caused any trouble.

A bigger trouble is coming. Moreover, since I left, I have not returned to Beijing without an imperial edict! All the exchanges are with Zhezi. Because there are other officials in Cizhou, Zhezi comes and goes frequently. But none of them are given to Li Zhi privately.

This is the unwelcome kind.

Li Xian and Li Dan are supposed to be old! But because their parents are reluctant to let go, they stay in Chang'an. There is a palace in Chang'an, and they can study in the palace all the time! Those who are favored study in the palace in Chang'an, especially

Those clan members who are not favored or remembered have to study in various mansions all the time, even until they are old! Among the officials given by the imperial court, there are attendants who will accompany them when they study.

While I was going through these things in my mind, I heard a voice coming from far away: The Emperor has arrived - the Queen has arrived - everyone in the hall was standing in silence, waiting for the arrival of the Saint and the Queen. The Queen was sitting across the bead curtain

Later, when the saint went up the imperial steps, Li Xian went to greet him and helped the saint sit on the dragon chair.

Afterwards, when you meet the ceremony, you don’t need to kneel down and kowtow three times. However, this etiquette is something Lin Yutong is not used to. Fortunately, women’s etiquette is different from that of men. They only need to perform a solemn bow.

In the originally uniform team, a different person appeared, and the person sitting on it felt strange.

Lin Yutong had a sullen face, which was actually strange. Did you listen to the orders of the praisers? He was shouting: Jie Jian.

Yes! Why do civil servants and generals like to wear swords so much in this main hall? They have to salute now, but the sword is in the way. Take it off and put it aside, salute, and finally hang it back up.

Shangguan Wan'er looked out through the bead curtain and saw this very special princess standing there very calmly. After the ceremony was finally completed, the court discussed matters.

The saint looked at Tongtong first. Tongtong lowered his eyelids and had no intention of saying anything. Li Zhixin said, isn't this the time to say it?

So what's going on today?

He was able to keep his composure and first asked Liu Rengui about Silla. Liu Rengui told all about the situation of the war and Silla. Then he looked at the Princess Protector and seemed to ask: Do you have anything else to ask?

Infinitely good writing, all in Jinjiang Literature City. Lin Yutong said, "It's hard work Zuo Pushe!" Dare not!

After Liu Rengui finished speaking, he waited, and then the princess stood there again, nothing else!

Dai Zhide stood up and said:

: "Tibet sent envoys to sue for peace. The group entered the capital yesterday. I was on duty last night and only saw the news. "Is this what the princess is doing?

Li Zhi asked, "Princess Protector is familiar with Tibetan affairs. What should I do about this matter? I should ask Princess Protector for her opinion."

Lin Yutong cupped his hand and said, "You Pu She has handled matters properly, and the saint has been praised too much."

Empress Wu frowned, but she didn't come here for this matter.

Li Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly, and then looked at the censor's desk, "I heard in a daze yesterday that some king was plotting rebellion or some other king." Zhou Yaoguang came back from Cizhou just to inspect the censor. He stood up.

, Qizou said:

"Your Majesty, I am reporting that King Qi has exceeded the rules and is suspected of treason." Li Xian frowned, "That's nonsense! King Qi is the brother of the lonely emperor. He is a pure and kind man with a simple temperament. You open your mouth to exceed the rules and shut up to plot rebellion. What are your intentions?

"

Zhou Yaoguang was righteous and awe-inspiring, holding the court board in his hand. He landed on his left knee first, then his right knee. With his back straight, he turned to face the prince and said, "Your Highness, the prince, does not investigate or judge. How do you know that I am a bunch of nonsense in the court, and I am impartial and selfless."

And you, your brother who opens your mouth and your brother who shuts up, dare to be the prince, aren't you being so unreasonable?"

Li Xian had an angry look on his face before he spoke. Lin Yutong chuckled and turned around, "Yu Shi Zhou said that well!" The whole hall was instantly silenced, and for a moment everyone was as silent as a chill! Zhang Wenguan looked at Xue Yuanchao, and Xue Yuanchao looked at Pei Yan.

They exchanged glances with each other. What does this mean? Did Empress Wu specially call this princess to kill King Qi?

Zhang Wenguan stood up and was about to speak when he saw the princess take two steps forward, turned around and looked at Zhou Yaoguang, and said, "You are right! Treason is a serious matter, how can you arbitrarily accuse him! Zhou Yushi is

How could a well-educated man, who had been an official in the court for more than twenty years, talk about such a thing? Whatever he said must be based on solid evidence, otherwise, someone would frame the prince, murder the emperor's heirs, and alienate the royal family.

The guilt is a capital crime! Who would risk the death penalty to commit such a false accusation?"

Zhou Yushi nodded, "Princess Mingjian, that's exactly what happened."

I don’t know how many of the officials below looked at Lin Yutong with a look of disgust! No one knew what kind of person King Qi was, and how ridiculous his rebellion was.

Yao Chong stood up and said, "Your Highness, these crimes require multiple investigations and trials.

"Yes!" Lin Yutong interrupted the other party and asked Zhou Yushi, "What is reported to the imperial court must be clear! You only said that King Qi exceeded the rules, but you did not say how to exceed the rules, where to exceed the rules, and how to exceed them.

Moment, what is the principle?”

Zhou Yushi hurriedly said: "I went to Cizhou and saw with my own eyes at the royal palace in Cizhou that the horse-tying stakes used by King Qi were made by Jiulong."

"Did you bring back the horse-hitch stakes?"

"Then bring it up and show it to all the princes in the court.

Then he was carried up, a horse-tethering post with a nine-dragon head.

Lin Yutong circled the horse-tethering post twice, and then chuckled, "Cizhou is named after magnetite. The palace is backed by Cishan, and the stones used to build the palace came from Cishan. I studied under Taoist Sun and asked myself about Qihuang.

The art is somewhat passable. The magnet is also a medicinal stone. I shouldn't admit it wrong. There are many people in the main hall who know some medicinal materials and medicine. Everyone can come and see if this is a magnet.

Of course not!

Lin Yutong looked at Zhou Yushi, "Zhou Yushi, you have to think clearly, this matter cannot be fake! What you report is either true or false! If it is true, then you should be held accountable.

There are so many. Officials up and down Cizhou should all be accomplices! No one saw the inappropriateness of such an obvious sign of a horse-tethering post. They were either blind and unworthy of being an official, or they were just like King Qi.

Collusion and conspiracy! In such a major case, not only must they be held accountable, but also their family members, teachers, friends and colleagues. Let’s see how many people know and how many people are involved. These people should not be leniently spared!

The corners of Li Zhi's mouth raised, Li Xian leaned back, and Empress Wu's lips tightened, and her knuckles turned slightly white when she touched the armrests of the seat.

The ministers in the main hall understood at this time that the princess was not here to harm King Qi, on the contrary, she was here to save King Qi. If the case must be classified as treason, then expand it and roll it into a big snowball

, so many officials in Cizhou are inextricably linked to everyone standing in the court.

Do you want to involve them all? Don’t you dare!

I heard the princess say again, "The officials of the royal palace and the guards of the royal palace are all accomplices, and no one should be spared.
To be continued...
