Chapter 267: The Great Court Meeting One
August 19th, the 23rd year of Zhaohua!
The imperial meeting, which had been suspended for nearly twenty years because the emperor no longer went to court, was once again started on this day for the first time.
This is huge news that shocked the entire Kyoto.
This was of course a great event for the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty!
The people of Kyoto naturally associated this imperial meeting with the rumor these days, and they felt that life was like a dream and everything was like chess.
They are waiting eagerly to watch the excitement, and of course they also have many speculations about the future situation.
What they hope most is that the eldest son of the emperor, who is astonishingly talented and talented in literature, can recognize his ancestor and return to the clan, and even become the prince of Ning Kingdom!
It's not that they understand Yu Li Chenan's abilities, but they feel that such stories are just like those dramas, which can make them more interesting and make this monotonous and ordinary life more interesting to talk about after dinner.
As for some people who are worried that the capital will be chaotic in the future... chaos will be chaos. If it continues to be chaotic, how can it be worse than today?
We have already eaten bran-pharyngeal vegetables. If things really get messed up, maybe we can create a new future.
It's better than hanging on for dear life now.
Even if he died due to chaos, at least his descendants would still have hope of living a good life.
Therefore, many people placed their hopes on the eldest son of the emperor, looking forward to the convening of this great court meeting and the good news coming from the palace.
As far as the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were concerned, although everyone had actually guessed the content of this great meeting, they still hoped to hear it from the emperor himself before they felt that this matter could be implemented.
The meaning of landing is that there is no need to speculate between truth and falsehood.
There is no need to have any illusions about the future.
If it's time to fight Li Chen'an, then be ready for the fight.
If you should stand by Li Chenan's side, then you don't need to look forward or backward.
Therefore, this is a very important meeting!
It is related to the future and life and death of many people, and it is even related to the future national destiny of Ningguo!
All the civil and military ministers got up early on this day. Prime Minister Ji, who had not been to the palace for three days, also got up early this morning.
Under the service of the maid, he freshened up, had a hearty breakfast carefully, and then stood in front of a mirror.
He looked at the old face in the mirror.
There is also a green bump the size of a pigeon egg bulging on his forehead.
He looked at it for ten breaths and slowly narrowed his eyes because the green bag was particularly annoying.
Ning Zhixing had been to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he already knew that this was Li Chenan's doing.
That little thing from Guangling City seemed to be showing his fangs.
I... will definitely break your fangs!
It will also break your spine!
Even if you are the eldest son of the emperor, so what!
He turned around, put on his court clothes with the service of the maid, took his bodyguard with him, got into the carriage, and headed for the palace.
The one that opens up is the south door of the palace.
Therefore, all officials who entered the court had to walk on the Suzaku Avenue.
It is still Yinshi, but there are already many cars on Zhuque Avenue.
Of course these are the officials who went to attend the imperial meeting.
The palace gate must not have opened when they arrived at Zhuque Gate, but they still went there early.
Of course, these officials from Ji Xiang's department wanted to see Ji Xiang. After all, Ji Xiang had not shown up since the Prime Minister's Mansion was bombed inexplicably on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival.
Ji Xiang is their backbone.
This made them feel a little uneasy.
Although the Prime Minister's Mansion also sent a message telling them that the Prime Minister was fine, they heard that it was a divine punishment. Even if the Prime Minister was fine, if he was frightened... After all, the Prime Minister has passed his 60th birthday this year, can he still stand up and endure this difficult time?
Are the days getting darker?
Only by seeing it with their own eyes can their hearts be at ease.
Therefore, we need to go earlier. If we meet Ji Xiang, we can also hear Ji Xiang's views on this matter and have a clearer understanding of his attitude towards Li Chenan.
A small number of other officials wanted to see Li Chenan.
This young man who is now famous in Kyoto actually made his real appearance on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala.
He has gone to the corridor.
But at that time, he was among a group of students participating in the competition.
At that time, he did not have the status of the emperor's eldest son, so he did not appear to be very prominent among the crowd, so many people on the stairs did not pay attention to him at that time.
But on that night, he left a deep impression on many officials.
It wasn't just the emperor's identity that was vaguely revealed in his words.
It’s not just his sixteen stunning poems.
The key lies in the three shocking feats he performed subsequently!
This is what the small group of officials who hold back in the government value!
This is called courage!
If he were just an ordinary person, his courage would be described as reckless.
But if he has the status of the eldest son of the emperor... has the talent of poetry and immortality, and has extraordinary courage, he will be a great hero with both literary, political and military skills!
Reckless people can be admired, heroes can be followed!
Especially in the current chaos in Ningguo, amidst the filth in this dynasty, they long for a great hero who can make them look on the right side, who can lead them to correct the chaos and reorganize the order of the dynasty, restore the purity of the temple, and bring peace to Ningguo.
For peace.
Therefore, this small group of officials came very early.
After all, this is the first glimmer of light they have seen in their years as officials.
It may be weak, but it finally has a direction to follow.
The south gate of the palace is still closed.
Next to the south gate, there is a row of buildings for officials waiting to rest in the morning. Here they stand in three distinct circles!
The most people on the left are officials from Ji Tai's group.
They were very silent today for the first time, and no longer had the loud talk in the past.
There are fewer people on the right, but they are very excited today.
However, their voices were still very low, but they could not hide their anticipation.
There were also a few officials in the middle.
Their hands were folded in their sleeves, silent, or they looked up at the stars in the night sky, or looked down at their toes.
They are neither happy nor sad, because they have already been disappointed, so disappointed that they will no longer place their hope on someone.
Even if he is the eldest son of the emperor.
In today's environment, what can he do?
Li Wenhou was standing outside the crowd in the middle.
At this time, Qi Wenjun, the Minister of Civil Affairs, walked over from the group of people on the right.
He is the eldest son of the Duke of Qi and the father of the two brothers Qi Zhishan and Qi Zhixue.
He looked at Li Wenhou and said, "You should be happy!"
Li Wenhou took a deep breath, with a wry smile on his face, "Brother Qi...he shouldn't have come to Kyoto!"
"But it's already here."
"Yeah, so, next time...this autumn in Kyoto will get colder and colder."
Qi Wenjun smiled slightly, "After all, we have to experience autumn like this, and even a cold winter with heavy snow... I look forward to the arrival of this cold winter."
"...Many people will die!"
"Just die. Didn't he say such a thing in the literary world?"
"Everyone will die eventually. It may be lighter than a feather, or it may be heavier than Mount Tai!"
Chapter completed!
